On September 29, 23 A.D. of the Tang Dynasty, this day is Li Ke's birthday, and it is also the day when Li Ke held the crown ceremony.

Originally, according to Li Ke's statement, because Li Yuanjia had just died, it was okay to hold the crown ceremony internally, and there was no need to make a big fuss, because speaking of which, Li Chengqian's crown ceremony had just been held in the first half of this year.

Li Chengqian's crown ceremony was very low-key at that time, and no one even came to the minister, only the eldest grandson Wuji came, but he came as an uncle, and in addition to that, he was an insider of the royal family.

But Li Shimin disagreed.

The conversation at the time was like this.

Li Ke: "Dad, I don't agree, I can't be too grand as the prince and the crown, my eldest brother is so low-key, not to mention that now my eleventh uncle has just died, and the crown ceremony is too grand." ”

"You know a fart, I don't even bother to tell you, you boast of being very smart every day, don't you understand this? Even if your crown is not too grand, it must not be low-key. Li Shimin glared at Li Ke directly.

"Why?" Li Ke was a little confused.

"Your eldest brother is low-key because your eldest brother is the crown prince, and there is no need to be high-profile in the burden and position borne by the prince, for his identity and status, nothing can compare to the identity of the prince, so he can handle it in a low-key manner, do you admit it?" Li Shimin looked at him and asked.

Li Ke thought about it, as if he felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong, as a prince, he really can't be too high-profile, and few high-profile princes in history have a good end.

"The point is, there is another reason why your eldest brother is not high-profile, which is to avoid giving the wrong message to the outside world." Li Shimin spoke again.

"What misinformation?" Li Ke was stunned for a moment.

"What do you say? Of course it's your influence, you can't say you don't have any influence now, can you? Our own family knows what the situation is, until you have no intention of taking the throne, but how many people from the outside world know? If your eldest brother is too high-profile at this time, it may give some people the wrong judgment that your eldest brother wants to prove his influence. ”

"When the time comes, once such a person comes out, someone will inevitably start looking for trouble, which has nothing to do with whether your eldest brother is willing or not, because these people have ways to make trouble, and now in the critical period of the Tang Dynasty reform, at this time, someone has something to do, isn't it just dragging his feet, and such a person has not violated the rules, and you can't just kill it."

"What do you say? Should your eldest brother keep a low profile? Li Shimin looked at him and asked.

"Well, that's right." Li Ke nodded, Lao Li is still old and spicy enough in this regard, and Lao Li's words also reminded Li Ke of many typical examples on the Internet in later generations.

It's the same as this matter, you yourself just know the actual situation, but you can't control what others think. The best way to deal with this is to keep it from others, or to let others misunderstand.

In this way, Li Chengqian's low-key and crown ceremony at that time was also in the past.

"Your crown ceremony this time is so high-profile, so I don't need to explain it again, right?" Li Shimin looked at him and asked.

Li Ke thought for a while, and then asked helplessly: "Are you saying that if I am also low-key, will the outside world think that you and my eldest brother are suppressing me?" ”

"What do you think? You have made so many achievements for Datang, and the result and the crown ceremony are so low-key, and you haven't even publicized it to the outside world, do you think people who have a heart will think about it more? Li Shimin glanced at him.

Then Li Shimin sneered again and said, "You must not underestimate some people's ability to do things. Remember what I told you? Your influence, you have a huge influence among the people and the people. ”

"This kind of influence is a good thing and a bad thing, it depends on how you deal with it, if you don't handle it well, it will be a big trouble, just the two of us, I ask you, if you stay away from the place of Datang, and this place you have a huge influence among the people."

"At this time, someone in the local area said in your name that you worked hard for the Tang Dynasty, but your eldest brother and I couldn't tolerate you, thinking that you had affected your eldest brother's throne, and then they wanted to imprison you, or even kill you, what do you think?"

Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and then he was taken aback, thinking about it carefully...... What the is this...... If someone really does this, Li Ke will not talk about it in other places, just take Qinghai as an example, there are definitely unsuspecting herdsmen who dare to raise a knife to rebel.

And once the unwitting people gather too much, then in the eyes of other people, this matter will become true, and these people may also join in, and the time will be ......

Thinking of this, Li Ke broke out in a cold sweat.

"Why are you scared? So I tell you, your huge influence is both a good thing and a bad thing, you must beware of someone borrowing your name to do things, the entire territory of the Tang Dynasty is so large, if something happens far away from Chang'an, the news cannot be transmitted back to Chang'an in the first place. ”

"Even if it's an 800-mile rush, it takes at least ten days to go back and forth to many places, right? Ten days, do you know how much impact such a rumor can have? Li Shimin looked at Li Ke's expression and knew that he was frightened by himself.

"So I said, the Ministry of Public Security that you put Qin Qiong in charge of is a good move, they can prevent a lot of things, but it's still that problem, they can't solve the problem of information transmission by themselves, and in ten days, anything can happen."

"So, again, if you want people from the outside world to make trouble, you can't let them think that something will go wrong with you, as long as you don't have any problems, then no one will dare to move." Li Shimin said seriously.

Li Ke smiled bitterly and nodded: "I know, thank you for my father's teachings, I am indeed a little careless." ”

"What you kid said, you are all my sons, can I still watch you suffer? With me at the helm for you, I will tell you, there are some things, you can do what I say, and in the future, things similar to the crown, when you should be high-profile, you must be high-profile. ”

"Because your high-profile has become a conventional cognition of people, who doesn't know what kind of character your Royal Highness King Qin is, if you don't raise your profile one day, there will be a problem."

"Got it." Li Shimin looks like Lao Tzu is good for you.

"Yes." Li Ke really admired what he heard, because Li Ke really didn't expect a lot of these things, and he was not omnipotent after all.
