Chapter 458: Not being envied is mediocrity

"It's all because of me?"

Emperor Qianwu's eyes widened, his face full of puzzlement.

"That's right! It's all because of you! ”

Li Chengye's mood completely collapsed, and he shouted hysterically.

"Father, the son is the prince of the Great Qian, and the throne should have been mine!"

"Since ancient times, they have been all young and orderly, why can Li Changfeng replace his sons?!"

"Father, don't forget, he is a mongrel with the bloodline of the previous dynasty, and Erchen has the purest bloodline of the Li royal family!"

"Father, you named your sons and daughters Chengye, didn't you want your sons to inherit the great cause back then?!"

"When Erchen was young, did you say that you would hand over the cadres to Erchen in the future?!"

"Over the years, Erchen has been working hard to become a qualified prince, and you have always been optimistic about Erchen, and Erchen has not disappointed you, much better than Li Shou Li Ji and others!"

"But!"

Speaking of this, Li Chengye paused for a moment and roared towards Emperor Qianwu.

"But! Everything has changed since that little bastard returned to Beijing! ”

"It was you who shattered Erchen's dream, and Erchen could only take the risk to kill him!"

In the end, Li Chengye said with regret on his face: "It's a pity, it's a pity, he didn't die!" ”

Emperor Qianwu looked at Li Chengye in disbelief, as if he couldn't bear such a blow, he stepped back a few steps, his face was full of pain, and the momentum of a generation of heroes was gone.

He raised his hand and pointed at Li Chengye tremblingly.

"Chengye ...... You...... You ......"

That's right.

Li Chengye is his first son, he was very excited when he became a father at the beginning of the year, and took the name Chengye, indeed hoping that Li Chengye could inherit the unification in the future, and he was also very fond of Li Chengye.

He even cultivated and supervised Li Chengye according to the standards of the emperor.

However, as the Great Qianding ruled the world and his heirs increased, Emperor Qianwu realized that this kind of orderly inheritance of the eldest son was not reasonable, and his thoughts were shaken.

Later, Li Shou and Li Ji and others also showed very good talents, and Li Chengye's lack of enterprising and deep-mindedness, and the defects of being timid in doing things were gradually exposed.

In his opinion, this is not a qualified emperor.

Therefore, he made the decision that the prince must be delegated to the local government when he became an adult, in the hope that the princes can be improved through experience, and choose the best prince to inherit the throne.

This is a matter on the surface, and many princes have also launched restrained competition, and everything is in his plan.

He thought that all the princes could understand his hard work, especially the eldest Li Chengye, and they would definitely be able to understand his hard work for the future of Daqian.

I never thought that this would be the result.

At this time, he realized how precious it was that Li Changfeng was not interested in the throne.

There was Li Shou in the front, Li Ji in the back, and now Li Chengye in the back, who made unforgivable mistakes for the sake of the throne.

At this time, Emperor Qianwu really felt that he was a lonely man.

Perhaps it was Li Changfeng who realized this and was unwilling to be the emperor.

Li Chengye, who was out of the way, lost the slightest reverence for Emperor Qianwu, and said with a somewhat crazy smile: "What? Father, do you want to kill your son? It doesn't matter, Erchen's dream has been shattered, and his heart is dead, whatever! ”

Emperor Qianwu covered his heart, his body shook for a while, and his face was pale and full of pain.

Gao Dali hurriedly held on, and said with a worried face: "Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body!" ”

Emperor Qianwu pointed at Li Chengye's hand and trembled slightly: "Rebel! Rebel! You only have the throne in your heart, but do you have a big job? Can there be people in the world? But as long as you have the ability to build muskets, artillery, steam trains, and expand your territory in the south and the north, why should you pass on the throne? Over the years, in addition to engaging in some conspiracy and calculation, have you ever made a little merit? What do you compare to Li Changfeng? What qualifications do you have to compare with Li Changfeng? ”

Faced with Emperor Qianwu's successive questions, Li Chengye's mouth opened and opened, but he couldn't say anything to refute, and finally he could only grit his teeth and say: "This prince has pure blood, not like Li Changfeng, who is a mongrel with the blood of the previous dynasty!" ”

"Bastard?"

Emperor Qianwu looked disappointed and said, "In addition to talking about useless bloodlines, what other skills do you have?" Lip service? You disappointed me too much, compared to Li Shou and Li Ji, you are so much worse! ”

Li Chengye snorted coldly, looking unconvinced.

Emperor Qianwu took a deep breath and gradually regained his composure, his waist was straight, and the emperor's aura naturally emanated.

He said in an indifferent tone: "My Li family is not born a royal family, it is the world that has been defeated, wasn't it an ordinary person before?" Speaking of which, Li Changfeng has the royal blood of the previous dynasty, and his bloodline is more noble than yours! ”

Li Chengye's mouth opened, speechless.

Emperor Qianwu coldly continued: "As the prince of the Great Qianyan, you are narrow-minded, and you are ashamed of my Great Qian!" As my son, you have no respect for your elders, and you are so disappointing to me! As Li Changfeng's eldest brother, you are a brother and you are not worthy of being his brother! ”

At this time, Li Chengye had regained his composure, knowing that he had made a big mistake, and said with a bitter smile: "So, father, are you planning to kill your son?" ”

"The mistakes you have made are indeed deserved!"

Hearing this, Li Chengye's face turned pale instantly.

Fortunately, Emperor Qianwu's next words relieved him.

"But, after all, you are my son, it will be distressing to kill me, and your mother can't stand it, and the most important thing is why I killed you? Let everyone in the world know that the Li royal family has a scum like you? Where are the faces of the Li royal family still placed? ”

After speaking, Emperor Qianwu flicked his sleeves fiercely and turned back to the dragon chair, and said in an expressionless tone and indifferently: "Gao Dali!" ”

"The old slave is here!"

"Spread my will, the eldest prince Li Chengye is seriously ill, and since then he has been cultivating in the mansion and unable to go out, no one is allowed to visit without my will, and he will not be allowed to leave the mansion for the rest of his life!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chengye's face turned pale in an instant, and his heart was like ashes.

This is house arrest for life!

Don't think about it in this life, he's finished.

I knew this was the result, so why take that risk in the first place?

Li Chengye was remorseful.

"Father's ......"

As soon as he opened his mouth to plead, Emperor Qianwu turned his head to look to the side, and waved his hand impatiently: "Before I have changed, pay attention to roll forward, don't call me my father emperor in the future, I don't have an unsuccessful son like you!" ”

Li Chengye was about to speak, but was interrupted by Gao Dali: "Your Highness, please!" ”

On the surface, Gao Dali didn't say anything, but he was actually a little happy in his heart, daring to play tricks on Li Changfeng, such an end was light.

Li Chengye knew that there was no point in saying too much now, so he got up and left in despair.

Emperor Qianwu let out a long sigh.

"What kind of sin have I created!"

Gao Dali didn't know how to comfort him, he thought about it again and again, and said cautiously: "It's a mediocre talent not to be envied, I can only say that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is too good, Your Majesty, don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry and have a bad dragon body." ”
