Seeing that Li Chengqian was indifferent to his suggestion, Changsun Wuji was very surprised, so he couldn't help but remind him again: "Your Highness, if you don't take action, if you wait until His Majesty has made up his mind and issued the edict of abolition, there will be no changes. It’s too late to regret it!”
"What's more, as long as His Highness agrees to give up a few places in the Chongwen Hall, I and the Guanzhong family will definitely protect His Highness."
In the past, these heartfelt words would have made Li Chengqian extremely excited, but now, there is only endless disappointment.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the Guanzhong Family still had a few spots in the Chongwen Hall that they were thinking about.
You must know that once you enter Chongwen Hall, you have already stepped into the officialdom.
What's more important is that Changsun Wuji cannot guarantee that he can keep his position as the prince, so Li Chengqian asked: "Is uncle sure?"
Of course, Li Chengqian did not dare to have any disrespectful thoughts, because he knew that no matter how many people in the Guanzhong family supported him, they might not be able to change Li Er's mind.
"Uh..." Changsun Wuji was at a loss for words and left with full of doubts. He really couldn't think of any way Li Chengqian could turn the tables.
Li Chengqian was still lying on the couch, with a trace of determination on his face.
He was usually an indecisive person, but at this time he was extremely decisive. He put all his hopes on Yang Fan, hoping that Yu Zhining would not let him down...
The cold wind is blowing outside, and the blazing charcoal fire inside the house exudes the warmth of winter.
Maybe Changsun Wuji didn't close the door when he went out. I don't know when a north wind started blowing from the gate, which made Li Chengqian couldn't help but tighten his collar.
Li Chengqian looked up in shock, only to find that the Crown Princess Su had come to the bedside at some time and looked at him with a chuckle.
Li Chengqian touched his cheek and asked doubtfully, "Is Gu's face looking bad?"
Su Shi smiled and shook his head, pursed his lips and said nothing.
"Then why are you looking at me like this?"
Mrs. Su sat beside the bed, her lips parted lightly: "Since His Highness broke his leg, I haven't seen His Highness handle things so calmly for a long time."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was suddenly startled, and couldn't hide his embarrassment when he looked at Xiang Su.
Ever since he broke his leg, his self-confidence was hit, and he had been living in fear when faced with Li Er's disappointed and strange eyes.
How can the future leader of a country be disabled?
Therefore, he has always been on tenterhooks, fearing that Li Er would dethrone him as crown prince.
It's not that Li Chengqian longed for the throne. If he wasn't the prince, he would rather be an idle king and indulge in the mountains and rivers.
But he is the prince. Throughout the ages, no deposed prince has ever been able to die a happy death?
Not only is he unable to die well, everyone in the East Palace is in danger.
Li Chengqian didn't want to die, let alone let his wife and children suffer, so he decided to cheer up! &
lt;/p>
"Your Highness, I just saw Mr. Zhao Guo and looked very ugly. When I left, I was in a turbulent mood. I didn't even hear Mr. Zhao say hello. Did Your Highness have a fight with Mr. Zhao?"
Su asked worriedly.
She didn't quite understand what was going on in the court, but she just felt that the prince was now disliked by His Majesty, and many of the ministers who had acted according to the prevailing circumstances had turned into mere weeds and all turned to the King of Wei.
Although there was a loyal Hou Junji, unfortunately he was already dead.
Except for Changsun Wuji, there is no other truly powerful minister. Li Chengqian naturally has to treat him with courtesy. Otherwise, even Changsun Wuji won't support him, and the throne will really be lost!
Li Chengqian stood up and sighed softly: "I have always been a puppet of these Guanzhong aristocratic families. At such a critical moment, this time the Guanzhong aristocratic family actually opened their mouths. What's more important is that they are unable to protect Gu's safety. , It’s like a blank wolf.”
Seeing the angry look on Li Chengqian's face, Su Shi slapped the Crown Prince on the back and quickly changed the subject: "I don't understand the affairs of the imperial court, but since His Highness rejected Changsun Wuji's kindness, he should Find another way."
"County Duke Wannian married two of the most dazzling princesses in the royal family. The whole city of Chang'an is envious of his great favor."
"In killing the rebels such as Li Yuanchang and Hou Junji on Lishan Mountain, Yang Fan performed another unparalleled feat. I heard that my father had a headache and how he would reward him."
"If His Highness is in danger, why not ask Chang Le to intercede for His Highness and let Yang Fan help. I think Wannian County Lord will definitely have a way to keep His Highness as the crown prince."
Hearing Su's words, Li Chengqian was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the Crown Princess had also thought of this move, so he said calmly: "The Crown Princess's idea coincides with Gu's. Master Yu has already gone to persuade Wannian County Duke to be the guarantee. As long as he is willing to take action, I will be more than 70% sure."
In his opinion, everyone said that Yang Fan was a playboy, but he didn't know that he was actually a talented person with a lot of talent.
It is widely rumored that this person is excellent in poetry and poetry, but they do not know that the most powerful thing about this person is his ability to protect oneself wisely.
Hearing this, Mrs. Su was dumbfounded. The prince had always been arrogant and arrogant. When had he ever trusted someone so much?
To say that Yang Fan was 70% sure of being able to keep him was not even as simple as trust, but adoration!
You must know that Yang Fan is facing His Majesty Li Er, who is holding the Qiankun.
Gently holding Su's delicate hand, Li Chengqian looked into his wife's eyes and sighed softly: "You have worked hard these years. As long as you get through this crisis, I will cheer up and let my father look at me differently."
Su Shi was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with tears!
Just this sentence makes all these years of worry worth it.
Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said with firm eyes: "I have already figured it out. As long as I get through this difficulty, I will work hard to take care of this beautiful country;"
"If my father insists on Yi Chu, then I will ask my father to let you and a few children go overseas with Yang Fan. Doesn't this guy want to open up a sea route? With Chang Le's relationship, even if he doesn't protect Gu, for You can’t turn a blind eye, can you?”&a
mp;lt;/p>
Su Shi burst into tears and choked with sobs: "If Your Highness cannot be together, I am willing to advance and retreat with Your Highness. We will still be husband and wife in the next life..."
Li Chengqian laughed loudly: "If you have a wife like this, what else can you ask for?"
For the sake of his family, Li Chengqian gradually regained his confidence, and now he just needs to wait quietly for news about Yu Zhining.
Some people complained about their situation and felt sorry for themselves, but at this moment Li Chengqian decided to give it a try.
Looking at the colorful snow outside, Li Chengqian didn't feel cold, because there was a fire in his heart releasing endless heat.
Different from the warm and spring-like rooms in the East Palace, Yang Fan came to the barracks and complained to Cheng Yaojin with a bitter face: "Uncle Cheng, the rebellion has been put down, why doesn't Your Majesty return to the palace? It's so cold here, it's really torturous. Already?"
Cheng Yaojin took a sip of tea and did not speak. Instead, he said pointedly: "My wise nephew turned the tide, and there were not many famous generals in ancient times. Now you are already a first-class governor at a young age. Once His Majesty returns to the palace, you will definitely In terms of merit and reward, maybe my nephew will become the first consort to be crowned king..."
Yang Fan was not happy when he heard what Cheng Yaojin said. Since the Han Dynasty, there has been no precedent for granting a king with a different surname.
Of course Yang Fan had thought about these issues. Based on his merits, it would be more than enough for him to be crowned king.
But Yang Fan knew that once it was impossible to seal it, it would be the end of Yang Fan.
After all, Yang Fan is still young, and he has been granted the title of king this time. So what will His Majesty Li Er use to reward him next time, and how will the next emperor arrange himself.
Seeing that Yang Fan understood what he meant, Cheng Yaojin nodded happily.
Although Yang Fan is young, this guy is definitely not low on officialdom.
Looking at Cheng Yaojin's look, Yang Fan certainly knew that this guy wanted to beg him.
Anyway, the other party was an elder, so Yang Fan said without any scruples: "Please teach me, Uncle Cheng."
Cheng Yaojin slowly put down his tea cup and uttered a few words: "Make a deliberate mistake to rescue the prince."
Yang Fan asked with some confusion: "Your Majesty is extremely disappointed in the prince now. If I plead for him, will your Majesty chop me down in anger?"
Cheng Yaojin shook his head firmly: "Although His Majesty is very disappointed with the Crown Prince, he has not been deposed yet."
"This time Li Yuanchang and Hou Jun conspired to rebel. Of course His Majesty will be furious. If you go to plead for mercy, you will definitely suffer some hardships. But Your Majesty loves your reputation very much. You have made such great achievements, so I will definitely not do anything to you."
"Once you keep your position as the crown prince, not only will you gain the prince's closeness, but your majesty will also look at you differently. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
"Although the prince has lost power now, he is still an orthodox prince after all. Regardless of Chao Gang's ethics, the prince should inherit the throne. As long as there is no evidence to prove that the prince is involved in rebellion, Your Majesty will not dare to depose the prince easily."
While the two were talking, Hou Junji's soldiers came to report, and Yu Zhining asked to see him outside the palace.
Yang Fan and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other and already guessed the identity of Prince Zhan Shi.
Purpose.
Yu Zhining originally wanted to persuade Yang Fan with his righteousness, but he didn't expect that Yang Fan didn't refuse at all. Instead, he patted his chest and promised to do his best. This made Yu Zhining stunned for a long time before he realized.
Anyway, the goal has been achieved, and Yu Zhining did not guess that Yang Fan had any bad intentions.
The prince's current situation has reached the worst point, how much worse can it get!
******
After receiving Yu Zhining, Yang Fan met Li Er again.
The two sat opposite each other. Yang Fan encouraged himself and asked, "Your Majesty, have you ever regarded the prince as your son?"
When he asked this question, the lazy look on his face disappeared without a trace, replaced by a serious face, looking at His Majesty Li Er with stern eyes!
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er was a little stunned.
What does this unstinting stick mean? He actually asked himself such a question.
After forcing his father to abdicate, he made nine-year-old Li Chengqian the crown prince.
If Li Chengqian hadn't become decadent after breaking his leg, Li Erke would never have thought of Yi Chu.
This is also the reason why Zhao Shu Yi Chu has not been issued for a long time.
Li Er was afraid that the future dragons and grandsons would make such a large empire bloody.
Li Er will never allow the incident of the Xuanwumen Incident to happen again.
Now that Yang Fan dared to express his feelings for his son, Li Er felt a burst of anger in his chest!
"Since I came to the throne, I have worked hard to govern and love the people like a son. I often let the prince participate in political affairs and let the great scholars in the court teach him, just to make him a qualified emperor."
"Ever since Cheng Qian broke his leg, I have reminded him every day, why don't I treat him as my son? Do you know that these words are equivalent to erasing the care that I have taken for my son over the years? I really think that my knife cannot kill you. head?"
"Tell me, is there any emperor in the past who can be as kind and generous as me?"
With that said, His Majesty Li Er stood up angrily, came directly to Yang Fan, pointed his finger at Yang Fan's nose and cursed, spitting on Yang Fan's face.
Originally, Li Er was exhausted and irritable about how to deal with the prince.
Hou Junji, Li Yuanchang... and others launched a rebellion, which made His Majesty Li Er even more furious.
He wanted to go on a killing spree and let the whole world see that he, Li Shimin, didn't know how to kill.
Now even Yang Fan, a stickman, dares to make sarcastic remarks, which is simply unreasonable!
Facing His Majesty Li Er's murderous eyes, Yang Fan was a little frightened. If he said he wasn't afraid, it would be a lie!
Although His Highness Li Er has been very angry before, he has never seen Li Er so angry!
In the past, His Majesty Li Er got angry in front of Yang Fan, mostly because Yang Fan didn't follow the rules. &am
p;lt;/p>
This time he directly said that Li Er did not care about the relationship between father and son, so he was naturally furious.
But when the words came out, Yang Fan could only bite the bullet and look at His Majesty Li Er's red eyes.
Yang Fan knew that his words had obviously touched the back of His Majesty Li Er, and that burning anger might really cut off his own head!
The emperor's wrath, lying dead for thousands of miles, is not just talk.
As the most powerful person in this era, Li Er's anger from the depths of his heart is enough to break the heart and heart.
This has nothing to do with whether Yang Fan is a time traveler or not. This is a trend of being in a high position for a long time.
Yang Fan gritted his teeth, tried his best to resist the huge pressure from His Majesty Li Er, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask you, do you have the idea of deposing the crown prince?"
His Majesty Li Er was so angry that he was choked to death by these words.
He suddenly understood why this boy would ask himself as if he wanted to die if he regarded the prince as his son.
The reason for the hesitation in the past few days was the dilemma of whether to depose the prince.
However, Li Chengqian's evidence was not confirmed, so he did not return to the palace for a long time.
Letting Li Tai stay in the Lishan Palace expresses his determination to be easy to save.
Although everyone knows it, no one dares to tell it. Now Yang Fan is blatantly seeking death.
That's why Li Er was so angry at Yang Fan that he blushed.
However, only this Bangchui would ignore his majesty as the emperor and directly question Li Er!
Of course, there is no concealed questioning at all. In the eyes of His Majesty Li Er, it is a naked protest.
Protest that he, the emperor, has established a one-note hall without consulting the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty...
Staring at Fang Jun fiercely, His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth and said: "Compared to the future of the empire, what is the affection of children? Since the prince participated in the rebellion, he must be prepared to be deposed."
"What's more, the prince has been feeling sorry for himself and has completely lost the magnanimity of a prince."
"Besides, even if the prince is deposed, this can ensure that he will have no worries for the rest of his life."
"Have you ever thought that if the crown prince is cowardly, once he becomes emperor, he will make life miserable for the people of the empire?"
Li Er didn't know why he had to explain to Yang Fan.
It's because I really don't have the idea of deposing Prince Li Chengqian in my heart.
Or maybe they are optimistic about Yang Fan, a rising star who has not been tainted by fame and fortune.
On the contrary, he has a pure heart and dares to challenge him, the emperor, for the sake of the prince?
However, even if the anger in His Majesty Li Er's heart could not last for a moment,
A lot of it disappeared inexplicably.
Obviously Yang Fan was kind to Li Chengqian, his uncle, because he married Princess Changle.
Thinking of this, His Majesty Li Er was very pleased.
At least when Yang Fan grows up, it will definitely be beneficial to the royal family. Of course, it is impossible for him to feel ashamed and annoyed at all.
He is the emperor and the master of the Tang Dynasty. If you, a younger generation, dare to question me openly, you are looking for death!
Yang Fan looked at His Majesty Li Er without fear, but his heart tightened and even gave him a hint of timidity, so he could only keep cheering himself up.
Never be a coward!
You must vividly demonstrate your high character and integrity without fear of power.
Let Li Er know that I am a real person who puts family ties above all else.
