In the Zichen Hall of the Imperial Palace of Luoyang City, the time has passed.

According to the previous habit, Emperor Li Hao had already gone to bed, and at most there was an oil lamp in the room.

However, tonight, the entire Zichen Hall was brightly lit. Emperor Li Hao sat on the bed, leaning on the head of the bed, closing his eyes and contemplating, frowning from time to time, making people look a little tired.

The golden underwear on the body releases the dignity and domineering atmosphere of the emperor. However, since the commander of the inner guards, Huangpu Wuming, followed the national teacher to Fuziling, he was not in this palace, and Emperor Li Hao always felt that he had a sense of security, just like when he talked to Gonggong Xu yesterday, once this person had a reliance and hidden sustenance, he would have less confidence.

In recent days, he has been feeling that something has happened, from the calm and watery government, to the inexplicable pain in his chest, to the restless thoughts tonight, Li Hao has a feeling that it is coming soon, and it will definitely come, maybe it is tonight, maybe the lights in the hall can make him see it more realistically......

Sure enough, there was a noise outside the dormitory, Li Hao slowly opened his eyes, and called: "Someone!"

"The old slave is here!" replied Grandpa Xu.

"What's going on outside the hall, so disturbing?" Li Hao asked.

"Your Majesty, the eldest prince Li Ji is asking to see him outside the palace!" Although Gonggong Xu said calmly, Emperor Li Hao still noticed a trace of something strange on his face!

He knows this slave who has been with him for many years, and he is also the person he trusts the most, he serves everything in his diet and daily life, and after being with him for a long time, he understands.

"Seeing me late at night, why are you still so noisy? There are a lot of ministers, right?" Li Hao said lightly, without the slightest panic, showing the demeanor and calmness that a king should have.

Gonggong Xu was not surprised, nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Then please invite the eldest prince in! those who should come always have to come!" Li Ji finished speaking, and slowly closed his eyes......

......

And outside the palace, the eldest prince was standing proudly in front of the princes and ministers, under countless torches, with a cold face, his eyes were full of murderous intent, he quietly looked at the closed palace door, and the inner guards held hostage by the cronies and soldiers around him seemed to have nothing to do with him, and he stood so upright, so that people could not see his mood at the moment.

After a long time, he said coldly: "It's too noisy, let them be quiet!"

No one answered, only the sound of a sharp sword slitting the throat. He didn't look back, and when the ant-like life fell to the ground and made a "pop" sound, he only frowned, as if to say that these people were too noisy.

The bright red blood instantly stained the bluestone carrying history under his feet, and no one looked at these people, let alone cared about the lives of these ants.

When Gonggong Xu opened the door of the dormitory, he looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes became cold and disgusted, he pulled the prince in front of him from nobility to mortal dust for the first time, and he was still a beast in mortal dust.

So he opened his mouth and said coldly: "The emperor has a decree, and the prince will speak in the palace alone!"

The eldest prince Li Ji walked away, still followed by the princes and ministers, he didn't seem to have heard of Xu's words, his cold face was covered with frost, and he looked like the one who blocked me was dead!

"The eldest prince, the emperor only sent you to speak!" Father-in-law Xu kindly reminded.

Li Ji paused, stretched out his hand and slapped him, after a crisp sound of "pop", he looked at Gonggong Xu who was covering his face with his hand, and pushed him away heavily, and said angrily: "Dog minion, do you know who you are talking to?" After speaking, he did not stop for a moment, and walked quickly into the dormitory.

Emperor Li Hao opened his eyes, did not look at the eldest prince Li Ji, after glancing at Gonggong Xu, his gaze became sharp, he swept over the group of ministers who walked in, and said: "Situ, Sikong, the prince, Taifu, Shang Shuling, and General Yunlu are all here?

When all the ministers heard this, they suddenly knelt down in unison, and said in unison: "The emperor is old, he doesn't think about the dynasty, the position of the crown prince has not been established for a long time, and the whole empire recommends the prince Li Ji!"

When Emperor Li Hao heard this, he knew in his heart, but he didn't expect it to be tonight?

After thinking about it, it's not tonight, but that night? The close guard Huangpu was nameless and was asked to go to Confucius by the national teacher Li Huaimin? No one in the Chaogang can be trusted, who can stop him?

Thinking of this, Li Hao was also relieved, he looked directly at Li Ji and said lightly: "What do you mean?"

Li Ji did not evade it in the slightest, and replied to the question: "Father is sleepy!"

Li Ji suddenly said loudly and angrily: "Do you know why I don't like you? It stands to reason that the position of the crown prince should be you, but I don't like your hypocrisy? If you want the position of the emperor is the position of the emperor, is it difficult to achieve it if you are so hypocritical?"

After speaking, his gaze once again swept over the kneeling ministers and said angrily: "And you, you ministers who have done fine, don't think that I don't know your thoughts?

Li Ji suddenly took over coldly and said: "The trend of the times, taking advantage of the trend, just hurts my father's heart!"

"Really, that's really tactful! What if I don't follow you?" Li Hao said.

When Li Ji heard this, his heart was cold, and he immediately said: "I don't force my father, my sons and daughters have time, and they have waited for eighteen years, I don't care about this moment!"

After speaking, he found a stool and sat in front of Li Hao's bed, turned his head and said, "I'll talk to my father, you all go out and wait!"

All the courtiers were ordered to leave the palace together, and when the heavy vermilion lacquer door was closed, Emperor Li Hao got up and said, "Rebel, do you know the consequences of your doing this?"

"Yes!" Li Ji replied simply and clearly.

"Do you know that you still do this? I am just your son? This country will be given to you sooner or later! Just give it to you now, can you sit firmly? This Manchu Dynasty civil and military, can you distinguish between loyal and disobedient ministers?"

Li Ji looked at his father and said lightly: "If there is royal power, it will naturally be clearly divided!"

Emperor Li Hao immediately said angrily: "King's power? King's power will only make you die faster! I have already lost a son, and I don't want to lose you again? Have you ever thought that they can support you as king today? You can also abolish your king in the future! Seeking power and usurping the throne has been unjustifiable since ancient times, and killing your father and forcing me to lose your humanity is even more inhumane.

"Yes!" Li Ji didn't talk much, and every time the words popped out, he could always roll his eyes in anger.

Emperor Li Hao suddenly laughed instead of being angry: "Why can?"

"Go with the flow! It's time! Father!"

Li Ji looked at the firmness in his eyes, and suddenly felt a sense of frustration, as if the truth he said did not play any role in the ears of this unfilial son.

It seems that he is bound to win tonight, but are you really ready to be the king of a country in the Tang Empire? If you can still listen to me, why not hand it over to him?

However, now it seems that if I hand it over to him, I can only watch him ruin the empire with my own eyes!

So he said, "Go with the flow?"

"Hmm!"

"What is homeopathy? Then let me ask you? Who is available to the ministers of the DPRK and China? Who is available and who is not? What have you seen in the more than eight years you have been in charge of the government? What have you done? You have not seen the suffering of the world, but you are addicted to the palace struggle of the game of power! You still follow the trend? What is the trend? What is the homeopathy? What is the desire of the people of the world, what the people of the world refer to, not the greed of a few princes and ministers!"

After Li Hao finished speaking, he let out a long sigh, and the figure of the second prince Li Zheng flashed in his mind, but it was a pity......

Li Ji listened to these so-called great truths, and was unmoved, and a sentence popped out of his mouth: "Father said so much, aren't you still reluctant to give up that dragon chair? No matter what I do, I am inferior to him in your heart after all!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Hao's heart suddenly felt a pain? He didn't know if this distress was for the prince in front of him, or the second prince who was no longer in the world, he stared at Li Ji's eyes and said word by word: "The heart of the king must be ruthless, accurate, soft, cold, with great love, with a big heart, and his heart contains all the people of the world." And there is no need for hypocrisy! You are indeed inferior to him in this regard! Your heart is too unsettled, you know it!"

"But he's dead!" When he said this, Li Ji didn't have a trace of emotion, what he hated most was his imperial brother, his birth, everything that originally belonged to him, changed! If it wasn't for his birth, how could he still be a prince?

So, he should be damned! Damn! He shouldn't have come to this palace and compete with himself for the right to belong to this emperor!

"Yes, he's dead! You threw him into the Luoshui River!" Li Hao said.

"He has a ghost doctor in his body who is highly poisonous, and no one can solve it, so he made this decision, don't these fathers know?"

"Of course I know! But I don't believe it, I've been waiting for you for eight years! Let you explain to me yourself, but I've been disappointed for eight years, this is my last generosity to you as an ordinary father! Do you really think I'm old and confused? You just need to answer me with a word, and the throne of the emperor will be passed on to you!"

Li Ji's head buzzed, he never thought that his father had always been suspicious of him, no wonder he had always been unsure of the position of the prince! Is it a dragon waiting for himself to admit it? No! By no means not!

So he said: "It's late at night, my father is unwell, I am bound to win tonight, so I don't need to mention too much of the past, right?

"The dignified prince of the empire should be the pride of the sky, but he is so cowardly that he doesn't even have the courage to admit it? You go! Take your princes and ministers away, I don't see anything, I don't want to see you!" Li Hao said in a positive tone, his eyes kept looking directly at the eldest prince Li Ji, as if he wanted to penetrate the depths of his soul through his eyes.

The reason why he said this was because he had the last glimmer of hope. I hope that this son will not be so confused that he really wants to force himself to abdicate the throne, and the new monarch will ascend the throne, which will inevitably be chaos, and it will be the people of the Tang Empire who will suffer like this.

What's more, the time for the princess of the Moonfish Kingdom to visit the Tang Dynasty is approaching, and it is inevitable that these people who are ready to make an article will not be written?

However, Li Ji knows the truth that the arrow has to be sent on the string, what he did tonight is already a big rebellion, it is difficult to guarantee that his father will not be held accountable at the moment, and after this crisis, he will not be pursued again?

Moreover, he is bound to win tonight, and he can still understand the truth of long nights and dreams, not to mention that in his father's words, he is obviously testing himself, and he has never let down his defense? Thinking of this, Li Ji suddenly looked at his father with a fierce look and said: "In my father's heart, I am afraid that only the dead imperial brother is the son of his father, right? And I am just a supporting role that has been over-established! What does his death have to do with me, you have the world, why don't you go and destroy other mountains?"

As soon as Li Jigang finished speaking, he suddenly felt a pain on his face, and he was slapped heavily by Emperor Li Hao.

Looking at Li Ji in front of him, he said angrily: "You said that you destroyed other mountains?"
