The eldest princess is married to Li Xin, and it is also appropriate to entrust Li Xin, but if you entrust the crown prince to Li Xin, it is nonsense.

The feudal dynasties of Zhuxia are all very complex interest groups, not as simple as a family name in the heavenly family, to put it bluntly, the emperor can sometimes decide the direction of this interest group, and even with fate, but the life and death of an emperor is not particularly able to affect this interest group.

Once the new monarch is young, the civil officials represented by Zaifu of Shangshutai, the heavenly family represented by the biological mother of the new monarch, and the elite class represented by the clan and the nobles, before the Son of Heaven is not in power, they will form a group similar to the "parliament" but not the parliament, temporarily take over the authority of the Son of Heaven and take charge of the dynasty on their behalf.

In the past, this was the case, and now it will naturally be no exception, that is to say, Taikang Tianzi collapsed, and the crown prince succeeded to the throne, if Li Xin did not have the edict of the Son of Heaven, then the power of the Son of Heaven would transition to the hands of these people.

Hearing the words of the Son of Heaven, Li Xin sighed slowly.

"Your Majesty, the minister can't afford to entrust the word, Your Majesty's expression has recovered a little, and he may recover after a few days of recuperation......"

The Son of Heaven sat opposite Li Xin and smiled reluctantly.

"I used to hear others say that when people are about to die, they will have a sense in the dark, but I didn't believe it before......"

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven kept silent, but glanced at Li Xin.

"I just entrusted the crown prince to Chang'an, and Chang'an has not yet responded to me."

Li Xin smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty looks down on the minister, the minister is now just a military secretary, even if he is in charge of the right battalion of the forbidden army, he must be controlled by the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, where can he afford such a heavy responsibility?" ”

"You deserve it."

The Son of Heaven closed his eyes a little tiredly, and said slowly: "Now the power of the southwest has far surpassed the Pingnan army back then, I am still helpless, and the prince will probably have no way to take the southwest in the future." ”

Speaking of this, he opened his eyes and looked at Li Xin.

"But Chang'an, you, can easily control the southwest, I only hope that Chang'an you will be in the future... Don't embarrass the prince. ”

The Son of Heaven coughed twice, his voice hoarse.

"In this way, I have fulfilled my entrustment."

Li Xin was silent.

It turned out to be waiting for himself here.

He looked up at the Son of Heaven, whose face was a little pale, and then bowed his head slightly: "Your Majesty, the minister has no objection, and neither does the Southwest Mu family, if the imperial court does not make a move in the southwest, the southwest will not make any more moves." ”

The Son of Heaven looked at Li Xin.

"This is my first entrustment."

The Marquis of Jing'an's heart was quite heavy, and he took a deep breath: "Please give instructions to Your Majesty." ”

The Son of Heaven was originally a return to the light, and he couldn't support it for too long, and after saying it for so long, his face turned a little pale, he got up from opposite Li Xin, sat back on his soft couch with some difficulty, and looked up at Li Xin.

"The battle report from the north, Ye Mao has already handed it in its original form."

The Son of Heaven seemed to be a little uncomfortable, he frowned, closed his eyes and said: "After this battle, there are almost two of the four Yuwen divisions in the north, which is a big loss of vitality, Ye Mao said in the battle report, this is the plan you set before you left in Chang'an, and he just did it again." ”

Ye Mao is undoubtedly very sensible.

It stands to reason that when he led the troops to deal with Yuwenzhao, Li Xin was not only not in Jimen Pass, but he was no longer even the general of the Zhenbei Army, no matter how much credit the Zhenbei Army had, he could take it on himself, besides, what plan was not planned, it was just a matter of one sentence, even if Ye Mao was embarrassed to say that he came up with it himself, he could avoid talking about it, but this eldest grandson of the Ye family almost gave most of the credit to Li Xin in the war report to the imperial court.

Li Xin also didn't see the battle report of the Zhenbei Army, and was a little stunned when he heard it, so he bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, when the Zhenbei Army fought with the Yuwen Tribes, the minister was in the capital, and no matter what, this matter can't be said on the minister's head......"

The Son of Heaven looked at Li Xin.

"If it were someone else, I naturally wouldn't believe it, but Chang'an, you... It's not the same..."

After taking a breath, the Son of Heaven continued: "You are a... It's not surprising that a very capable person can do this kind of thing, but you're right, you weren't in the north during the war, and the credit won't fall on your head no matter what......"

"Still."

The Son of Heaven seemed to have a sudden pain, so painful that he snorted, and there was already a faint sweat on his forehead.

"However, the Yuwen tribes only injured their muscles and bones, not to the root, since Chang'an, you have the ability to hit them hard, and you have a chance to ......."

And he put them... Press Die. ”

What the Son of Heaven has in mind in the past dynasties is undoubtedly to expand the territory, Taikang Tianzi is not surprised, he also wants the troops of the Great Jin Dynasty to sweep the Yuwen tribes in the north, although time has not allowed him to do this, but he still hopes that Li Xin can be behind him, completely erase the hidden dangers in the north.

Since the third year of Taikang, the Son of Heaven sitting in the capital has begun to look north, until the ninth year of Taikang, the Son of Heaven has reached the point of life and death, and his eyes still have not moved from the north.

The Marquis of Jing'an was in a very complicated mood.

He has known the Son of Heaven for more than ten years, although he has gradually deviated from morality in recent years, and even shows signs of turning against each other, but if there is no emotion, it is not realistic.

Sometimes, Li Xin really regarded this son of heaven as a friend.

He was silent for a while, and finally looked up at the Son of Heaven, and did not bow his head again.

"Your Majesty..."

"If you have the opportunity, you will definitely clear the hidden dangers of Northern Xinjiang for the Great Jin."

The Son of Heaven barely smiled.

"In this way, I can have peace of mind."

His face became more and more unsightly, and he even showed signs of unsteadyness, staggering, and was about to collapse on the soft couch.

Seeing this, Li Xin was shocked, and he no longer cared about the identity of the Son of Heaven, and hurriedly took two steps forward and held the shoulders of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty?"

Tianzi's brain was already faintly drowsy, he looked at Li Xin in front of him, and his voice began to be intermittent.

"Letter...... Brother. ”

After the Son of Heaven said these three words, he continued: "I ...... I wanted to take you with me..."

At this, he laughed to himself.

"But if you're dead, too, I...... It is estimated that the prince can't handle this mess. ”

With Li Xin's support, the Son of Heaven was half-lying on the soft couch with a pillow behind him.

He rubbed his head and continued: "Therefore...... I won't kill you. ”

The Son of Heaven opened his eyes and looked at Li Xin.

"Ten years ago...... If the fourth brother had succeeded to the throne, I would have died a long time ago, but this time ......"

"It's like you saved my life ten years ago."

His voice grew quieter.

Li Xin sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes a little red.

"If it weren't for Your Majesty ten years ago, the minister would have died a long time ago."

When Li Xin first entered the capital, he offended the Pingnan Hou Mansion, and with the power of the Pingnan Hou Mansion at that time, even if it was six Shangshu in the court, he was unwilling to provoke it.

That is, the Seven Princes at that time dared to reach out and pull Li Xin.

The two of them can be regarded as fulfilling each other.

Now, more than ten years later, things are not people.

The two young people at the beginning, one was in his prime, and the other was ...... But he was already dying.
