"Don't worry, she can follow suit, but she is destined to not be able to do it in this life."

Li Dan smiled lightly: "Actually, the emperor has already left me advice, it's funny, my sister is actually the sister of the three emperors." ”

"If she has the guts, it's normal, but it's a pity that she doesn't have your experience, and she is destined to not be a big thing!"

"Besides, my mother is in charge of the government and makes great efforts, although I don't say that there is an emperor through the ages, but the governance of the world is not lost to many people, she... If you dare to have this heart, you are a usurper! ”

"Now let's keep her arrogant and lascivious, after all, her fate is the same as mine, hehehe, what we said doesn't count, the emperor said it, hahahaha...."

"Good!" Wu Cao patted Li Dan on the shoulder: "Misfortune and fortune are leaning on, blessing and misfortune are lurking, the court and the central government are always twitching you to live and die, but there is a national teacher, Di Renjie and others are here, and it is almost time for you to show your talents!" ”

"By the way, the eunuch that my mother received was recommended by Gao Lishi, where is it now?"

Li Dan said lightly: "I asked him to serve Longji, that Wu Chengsi served people too badly, I gave him a nine-rank official and drove him away, now the two of them are getting along well, listen to him, he is also called Gao Lishi?" ”

"Well, he will be called Gao Lishi in the future, that Shangguan Wan'er is very talented, you have to keep it well, my mother is gone."

"It's... That's it? ”

"Well, you call your mother a good day, you don't care about anything, and your mother will come back to see you when the time comes."

When the words fell, Wu Cao turned around and wanted to leave, but found that Li Dan was still tugging at her clothes.

After taking a deep breath, Li Dan slowly let go of his palm and watched her go farther and farther a few times.

"The national teacher... How many years do you think my mother can live? ”

"Those who obey the will of the ministers and the people deserve a long life."

"Hahahahaha... Well said! That's a good point! Li Dan laughed and turned back: "Okay, let's go too, go back and rest." ”

....

Time flies, time flies.

A few years have passed in the blink of an eye, nothing has happened in Datang, everything is developing towards wealth, and Li Dan, the emperor, is doing more and more unpleasantly.

Because he was not happy, Yuan Tiangang kept urging him to degrade Princess Taiping to cut off some things that didn't happen.

He also felt that since his mother Wu Cao left, this sister didn't seem to intend to be a princess.

Now he was sitting on the dragon chair, just finished watching the recital, it was already late at night, he felt a headache, and he was also thinking about a choice.

Yuan Tiangang stood on the left side and said lightly: "When it is broken, it is broken, and if it is constantly chaotic, if Your Majesty does not make a choice, do you want another empress?" ”

Li Dan scratched his hair: "But she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary now, I'll just come like this suddenly, what will the future world say about me, how can I go down to see my father?" ”

At this moment, Li Longji walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup.

"I heard the emperor shouting from afar, but I encountered troubles?"

Li Dan glanced at Li Longji and sighed: "It's nothing, I just miss your grandmother, I have been out for so many years, and I haven't sent any news back." ”

Li Longji chuckled: "It turns out that my father misses my grandmother, and speaking of which, grandmother is indeed a great woman." ”

"The first female emperor who broke new ground!"

"But... When my grandmother was young, she was not very kind to our Li family. ”

Li Dan's hand just about to drink the soup paused, how could he not understand the meaning.

"Okay, your father is not an old fool, you came just in time, I am planning to make a prince recently, do you think, among your brothers, who is the most suitable to be the prince?"

Li Longji said lightly: "Naturally, the elder comes first, and my eldest brother Li Chengqi should be the prince!" ”

"No!" Suddenly there was a shout outside the door.

I saw Li Chengqi also walking in with a bowl of ginseng soup.

"Complete... What are you doing here? ”

Li Chengqi saluted the national teacher and Li Dan: "Erchen heard that his father has been poor recently, so he came to take a look." ”

"Just now, your sons have heard your words." As he spoke, he looked up at Li Longji and said seriously: "Third brother, the eldest brother has no virtue and no talent, although he has the heart to care about the Tang Dynasty and the society, he knows that he is not the talent of the emperor. ”

"The son begs his father to make my third brother Longji the crown prince! I hope that my father will focus on the society and the society, and take the respect and humility of the elders and the young as the light! Don't hesitate! ”

Li Dan rubbed his eyebrows: "National Teacher, what do you think I should do about this matter?" ”

Yuan Tiangang said lightly: "Your Majesty has long been thinking in your heart, and it is all up to Your Majesty's decision!" ”

Looking at the words pushed to himself again, Li Dan felt a little helpless.

"Then I'm changing the question, national teacher..."Li Dan suddenly asked in a whisper: "The emperor, his old man, is he really the heir of Gaozu?" ”

This is something that Li Dan has been pressing in his heart, he has long wanted to ask, not only him, but the ministers who were in power that day can see it clearly, what kind of dragon qi did the two of them say.

When Li Yunxiao said that he was the son of Gaozu and the brother of Li Shimin, their heads were as if they had been split by thunder!

However, this has not yet reached the point of being unacceptable, because as early as the Li Zhi period, many people acquiesced in their hearts that Li Yunxiao was Li Zhi's uncle.

What's more, Li Dan also said that Li Yunxiao was his uncle and grandfather, and he recognized his relatives in disguise, why were they so shocked?

Now recalling the things recorded in the historical records of Zhenguan, they realized that Li Shimin was really good to Li Yunxiao!

At the same time, they were also doubting in their hearts that no matter whether Li Yunxiao was the heir of the royal family or not, his achievements must be related to Taizong, and maybe Taizong had a far-reaching layout before his death...

Yuan Tiangang heard the question and slowly shook his head: "Your Majesty doesn't have to think about my brother Yunxiao, he has his own things to do, and he should do his own things." ”

"Hey? Why do you answer the question, I didn't force the emperor to be the emperor, I just asked. ”

"Brother Yunxiao is not his own heir, but Gaozu Taizong is kind to us."

Li Dan nodded when he heard this: "If you don't say that, it's over, it's all riddlers..."

After pondering for a moment, Li Dan looked at Li Chengqi: "Chengqi, I won't tell you, your father and I have long wanted to make your younger brother the crown prince." ”

This dragon robe couldn't be put on Li Yunxiao's body, so Li Dan didn't want to, and directly expressed his heart to his eldest son.

"This, Erchen naturally knows." Li Chengqi was unwavering when he heard this, and even felt that this was the way it should be.

The so-called things that respect the elder, if there is any discussion, it is good for him, the boss, to stop it.

"National teacher, I'm sorry for you."

Yuan Tiangang came below and hugged his hands together, ready to receive his life.

Li Dan took out an edict from under his ass and threw it to Yuan Tiangang.

"I have prepared this edict a long time ago, but I don't know when it will be good, and now I am going to make a prince, so that someone will not have the intention to harm my child, and this matter will be handled by you."

Yuan Tiangang opened the edict and glanced at it, and knelt down on one knee.

"Minister, it will be delivered!"

This edict is a derogatory book, and it is to demote Princess Taiping to Puzhou and live in peace.

After Yuan Tiangang left, Li Dan seemed to have aged a lot.

His sons and sisters, all of whom were born to Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang, and now they have died of illness, only Taiping has a good relationship with him for the time being.

"Alas~~~" Seeing the eldest son and third son here, Li Dan said leisurely: "Over the years, whether it is the national teacher or the imperial teacher, or your grandmother, they have warned me and asked me to be careful of your aunt." ”

"said that she didn't take Tang Shengxing to heart, and kept coming to close the distance, all for her own power and selfish interests."

"If there is no national teacher and emperor in our dynasty, once your aunt succeeds, I am afraid that there will be another person with a personality like your grandmother when you were young."

Speaking of this, Li Dan slowly stood up and came to Li Longji's side.

"As a father, if you want to pass on the throne to you, do you dare to be?"

Does Li Longji want to be emperor?

thinks, he has absolute confidence that he can rule the Tang Dynasty.

But my heart is also very entangled.

As an emperor, powerful and powerful, and a national teacher obeys orders, how majestic, this desire for power is a symbol of the pinnacle of prosperity!

But when he became the emperor, his time was almost gone, and what he cared about most was that if he didn't do well, I was afraid that the emperor... Won't spare him!
