Chapter 158: The Li Family Has No Loyal Ministers!
His Royal Highness King Wei felt a pang in his heart.
The issue of southern Xinjiang is currently the most sensitive issue in Dajin, there is no one, before this, this matter has never been put on the table, everyone may know it, but they are all silent.
Even the Chengde Emperor himself had not mentioned this matter to any prince before this.
But now, he actually asked bluntly.
The Seventh Prince pondered for a long time, and finally looked up at his father, and said respectfully: "Father, the sons and daughters think that the affairs of Southern Xinjiang must be cautious, and the slightest mistake will cause my Great Jin to be hit hard, and some people with ulterior motives may take the opportunity to make trouble." ”
Thirty years ago, when the Great Jin Dynasty unified the world, there were not only two countries in the world, but five countries, one of the five countries in the Great Jin!
At that time, Li Zhijie, the Marquis of Pingnan, led the Pingnan Army to pacify Nanshu, and Chen Guogong Ye Sheng led the Northern Army to pacify the Northern Zhou, leaving two small countries to surrender without a fight, and the world was unified.
You know, the Northern Zhou Dynasty at that time was the largest country in the world, if it weren't for the mediocrity and incompetence of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the chances of the Great Jin Dynasty dominating the world were not great, and now, although there are no rebellions in the north of the south, there are still some forces of the remnants of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Ye Ming, the son of Ye Sheng, the prince of Chen Guogong, is still leading troops in the north.
It's just that the north is different from the southern Xinjiang, and the Ye family of the Chen Guogong Mansion did not support the army like the Li family, and after Ye Sheng pacified the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he obediently returned to the capital to hand over the military power, and he was no longer involved in military affairs for thirty years.
It is worth mentioning that Ye Sheng, the old man of Chen Guogong's mansion, although he is over 70 years old, is still alive, but he no longer holds a military position, and raises flowers and grass in Chen Guogong's mansion every day.
Yu Linwei's Zhonglang general Ye Lan is Ye Sheng's youngest son, and the little grandfather Ye Mao that Li Xin met in the Wei Palace, is his eldest grandson.
When Li Xin first entered the capital, the "son-in-law" surnamed Ye, who hit Li Xin on horseback, was his granddaughter.
This Grandpa Ye is a figure of the same generation as Li Zhijie, Marquis of Pingnan, and Emperor Wu of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he is also the only old-timer in the current Great Jin military who can overpower Li Shen.
The people with ulterior motives mentioned by the Seven Princes refer to those remnants of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, if the Great Jin and the Li family fight to the death, the North may also have turmoil, with the current national strength of the Great Jin, it may be able to carry it down, but after this incident, the Great Jin Dynasty needs at least two generations of emperors to recuperate before it can restore the scenery of the Chengde Dynasty.
Chengde Tianzi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Nanjiang does not have the surname of the imperial court, and you know this in your heart, this is something that no one can tolerate, how can you bear it?" ”
This is a question about the national policy, and it is likely to be related to the selection of the future heir, His Royal Highness King Wei saw sweat on his forehead, and finally gritted his teeth fiercely.
"If you can't bear it, you have to endure it!"
The Seventh Prince said in a deep voice: "If you don't wait for the opportunity to act rashly, it is very likely that it will be the end of the overthrow of Sheji, and the sons think that this matter must be moved from time to time, if it is forced, even if it succeeds for a while, it will be endless!" ”
From Emperor Wu to Emperor Chengde, two generations of sons of heaven have endured southern Xinjiang for 30 years, and since their fathers and ancestors have already given the answer, Ji Wen will naturally not be stunned with his neck high.
The Son of Heaven of Chengde took a deep breath and nodded: "What you said is right, if there is no suitable opportunity, it is indeed difficult to move Southern Xinjiang." ”
The emperor stood up from the soft couch, put his hands behind him, and said faintly: "It's just that this opportunity is not waiting for it, if you wait hard, you can only wait for Li Shen's stupid son Li Chun to take the throne, and then you can find an opportunity, but Li Shen's body is very good, and I probably can't survive him." ”
Chengde Tianzi and Li Shen have played since childhood, and they have the habit of joking with each other when they are young, and when they grow up, Li Shen no longer dares to be presumptuous in front of the Son of Heaven, but Chengde Tianzi still calls Li Shen "this guy".
Ji Wen immediately bowed his head and said, "Father's holy life is boundless!" ”
The Son of Chengde sneered: "If I really want to live a boundless life, you debt collectors, still don't you eat me alive?" ”
Ji Wen was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Erchen doesn't dare!" ”
"Well, get up and speak, and there are no outsiders."
The Son of Heaven Chengde sat back on the soft couch, squinted his eyes and said: "You are right, the affairs of Southern Xinjiang must wait for an opportunity, I and the first emperor have been waiting for more than 30 years, but the two generations of the Li family have not leaked, I have not waited for the opportunity, and now we have to take the initiative to find an opportunity." ”
The Seventh Prince's heart was awe-inspiring, and he bowed his head and said, "What does Father mean...... Li Xin? ”
Chengde Tianzi nodded: "Li Xin, what do you think?" ”
The Seventh Prince still lowered his head and replied, "Li Xin is very smart and has a lot of means, and he is a rare talent. ”
"He's a lot like his dad."
Chengde Tianzi's face was calm: "His mind is as meticulous, and he is meticulous in his life and work, but Li Xin is still young, far less sophisticated than his father Li Shen." ”
Chengde Tianzi turned his head to look at his son, his eyes blazing: "He followed you, didn't he?" ”
The Seventh Prince wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded and said, "It's a good friend of the son, but he didn't agree to be a retainer of the Wei Palace." ”
"That's his ambition."
Chengde Tianzi said in a deep voice: "Li Xin is available, I feel more and more that he is the key to my breakthrough in southern Xinjiang, and you have to use him well." ”
Speaking of this, His Majesty the Emperor turned his head to look at the Seventh Prince and smiled indifferently: "Old Seven, if you and Li Xin solve the problem of Southern Xinjiang for me, I will be in this position in the future." ”
This sentence is like a spring thunder!
In the past, the unattainable throne could only be used as a throne where no one whispered, and it was the first time that it appeared so truly in front of the Seven Princes!
He fell to his knees, his voice trembling: "Father...... Father, son will definitely live up to his father's expectations! ”
Chengde Tianzi glanced at him lightly, frowned, and said: "Look at your unproductive appearance, you don't have to expect much in this matter, Li Shen is a very powerful person, I can't do anything about him, you two little guys, there is not much hope." ”
"You don't have to think too much, even if you can't do it, I won't blame you."
Speaking of this, the Son of Chengde suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at the Seventh Prince who was kneeling on the ground, and said casually: "There is something I want to remind you, if this matter is done by luck, after it is done, you must hold Li Xin's pigtail in your hand, don't let Li Zhijie get away like the first emperor." ”
Chengde Tianzi's face was calm, as if he was saying something that should be taken for granted: "If you can't hold it, kill it as soon as possible, Li Xin will not be inferior to his father and ancestor in the future, their Li family has not produced a loyal minister for three generations, and Li Xin will probably not be a loyal minister." ”
The Seven Princes knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you for your teachings."
"Son...... Got it. ”
