Chapter 180: Forever Jinchen!
The words of the Son of Heaven are actually a lie.
He is indeed very good to the eldest princess, and the brother-sister relationship between the two is indeed very strong, but when he sits in the position of the emperor, no matter what the affection is, it is not very useful.
Take that Emperor Wu Cao as an example, no matter how much she dotes on her daughter Princess Taiping, she still says kill her son-in-law Xue Shao, sitting in the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, it is difficult for personal feelings to affect their decision.
The Son of Heaven did not kill Li Xin to accompany the burial, to a large extent, because he couldn't kill Li Xin, or it was not very easy to kill Li Xin, not that he was unwilling to kill Li Xin.
The reason why he said this to the eldest princess is also to ask for a favor, if Li Xin has any bad intentions in the future, the eldest princess, the pillow person, may be able to persuade her.
Of course, this kind of small means can not restrain Li Xin well, it can only be said that talking is better than nothing, for the Son of Heaven, this is just a casual sentence, it is naturally good to have an effect, and it doesn't matter if there is no effect.
All people who climb to a high place, or stand on a high place themselves, like to leave some back hands intentionally or unintentionally, most of these back hands are useless, but there is no cost, it is natural to be useful, and it doesn't matter if it is useless.
But after the eldest princess heard this, she was moved to tears.
She knew very well that there was already a deep contradiction between her imperial brother and her husband, otherwise at the beginning of the year, Li Xin would not have tried every means to send the three of them out of the capital, if the son could say this sentence today, the eldest princess would naturally not be moved.
She took the hand of the Son of Heaven and choked up: "Brother is still young, he can't mention a dead word, so he can rest and recuperate for some time, maybe it's fine." ”
The Son of Heaven smiled slightly and did not speak.
"Okay, you may not have been in the palace for a long time, I have seen it here, and I will go to the queen mother to take a look, the queen mother and her old man have always been thinking about you."
The eldest princess wiped her tears with her sleeve, lowered her head and said "um", got up and said, "Then brother, you have a good rest, I will go to Kunde Palace to see the queen mother first." ”
The Son of Heaven waved his hand weakly.
"Go ahead."
The eldest princess slowly withdrew from Weiyang Palace, Xiao Zheng personally sent her out, and when Xiao Zheng came back, she found that the Son of Heaven was still sitting with an expressionless face.
"Li Xin is also waiting outside?"
Xiao Zheng bowed his head and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Hou Ye Li is waiting outside." ”
"You let him in."
Xiao Zheng nodded, walked to the bottom of the steps of Weiyang Palace, and said to Li Xinzuo: "Marquis Li, Your Majesty is invited." ”
Li Xin was not surprised by the summons of the Son of Heaven, he smiled and nodded: "There is Father-in-law Lao Xiao." ”
……
A moment later, the Marquis of Jing'an was already sitting opposite the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven got up and drank a cup of hot tea under the service of the two palace maids, and then he let out a long breath and looked at Li Xin.
"You can let Xiao Jiu come to see me, I want to thank you."
Li Xin shook his head, bowed his head and said, "It's not that the minister asked the eldest princess to come to see Your Majesty, but the eldest princess herself wants to come to see Your Majesty." ”
The Son of Heaven coughed a few times, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"Thank you anyway."
When Li Xin saw him like this, he also sighed: "Your Majesty be careful of your body. ”
"I'm out of the way."
After coughing a few more times, the Son of Heaven said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, I asked you to re-lead the errand of the right camp of the forbidden army, you should know my intentions. ”
Li Xin bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty wants the prince to ascend the throne." ”
The Son of Heaven was expressionless: "Originally, you Li Changan carried the court behind your back, carried me on your back, raised private soldiers in the southwest, and plotted against you, this errand should not have fallen on you anyway, but I have to admit that my Taikang Dynasty has half of your credit." ”
Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven let out a long sigh.
"I ...... I won't worry about the southwest with you. ”
In fact, up to now, the Son of Heaven is actually helpless against the southwest, otherwise with the temperament of the emperor of the Ji family, how can he not care?
Emperor Wu and Emperor Chengde, two generations of emperors, have been scheming with the Pingnan Marquis Mansion for more than 30 years!
Li Xin got up and said to the Son of Heaven: "Minister, thank you for your leniency." ”
The Son of Heaven sat on the dragon couch with an expressionless face.
"Right Battalion of the Forbidden Army, how are you mastered?"
Li Xin bowed his head and said, "Minister...... After receiving the holy decree, he ran to the right battalion of the forbidden army many times, and now he does not dare to say that he is in command, but it is not a problem to mobilize the right battalion of the forbidden army. ”
The Son of Heaven said so many words in one breath, only to feel a faint pain in his head, he rubbed his forehead with his hand, and his voice was hoarse: "You are the prince's teacher, the prince has a reputation, and you control the forbidden army, you can ensure that the prince succeeds smoothly, and nothing will go wrong." ”
It's an aftermath.
The Marquis of Jing'an glanced up at the Son of Heaven and sighed: "Your Majesty can not do this, the situation in the capital now is far less chaotic than ten years ago, if Your Majesty is really ...... The crown prince will definitely be able to inherit the throne. ”
"If Your Majesty is not at ease with the minister, the minister can hand over the errand of the right battalion of the forbidden army in exchange for Your Majesty's peace of mind."
The Son of Heaven closed his eyes.
"You Li Changan handed over the forbidden army, I won't be at ease, and you don't want to do anything that can really make me feel at ease."
This sentence refers to the recipe for Li Xin to hand over the heavenly thunder.
Marquis Jing'an pretended not to understand, bowed his head and said nothing.
The Son of Heaven opened his eyes, glanced at Li Xin a few times, and sighed helplessly.
"Chang'an, how have I treated you all these years?"
Li Xin frowned and thought about it, then raised his head and replied seriously: "It's not bad." ”
To be honest, the Son of Heaven has been good to Li Xin over the years, he has not crossed the river and demolished the bridge, you must know that the emperors in history have crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and even began to turn their faces in the first few months and half a year, although the Son of Heaven is a little mean to Li Xin in some aspects, but overall it is not bad.
For example, although he restricted Li Xin in terms of real power, he was quite generous in his official position, from the squire of the military department to the secretary of the military department, and then to the crown prince Taibao, in terms of official rank alone, he was already extremely honored.
Therefore, Li Xin said "not bad".
After the Son of Heaven heard this sentence "not bad", he laughed at himself: "In the entire Taikang Dynasty, I treat you Li Changan the most, and after the post of the military secretary and the prince Taibao in the third year of Taikang was sealed, the people of Yushitai wrote a two-year edict to me, saying that I abolished the public because of private interests, and that the Great Jin Dynasty had never had such a young courtier. ”
Hearing this, Li Xin smiled.
"Your Majesty might as well throw these people to the southwest and let them fight a dozen of the Pingnan Army back then."
The Son of Heaven looked at Li Xin, and his face became serious.
"Chang'an, in the past two years, there have indeed been a lot of discord between me and you, and there have been many contradictions in secret, but in any case, in the end, I still believe in you and hand over the prince to you."
The Son of Heaven had a hoarse voice, but his eyes were sincere.
"Now, I'm dying......"
He looked at Li Xin.
"You...... Can you make it easier for me to go? ”
Li Xin silently glanced up at the Son of Heaven, then bowed his head and said: "What does Your Majesty want the minister to do, even if he is told, what the minister can do, it is his duty." ”
The Son of Heaven laughed at himself: "I want you to hand over the Heavenly Thunder, but you are probably unwilling." ”
His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, took a deep breath.
"So, I want you to swear in front of me."
The Marquis of Jing'an looked up at the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven took a deep breath and gritted his teeth.
"I want you to swear, you ...... for the rest of your life"
"Forever Jinchen!"
