Chapter 797: The Emperor Awakens and Undersurges
Everyone present could see that the emperor's attitude was a little different this time.
Although there have been a lot of tests set up before, most of them are simple tests, and I don't even care about the result.
Whether it was done well or badly before, it didn't even make this emperor have any attitude, that is, there was no reward, and there was no punishment.
As if that thing could be superfluous, it can be said that Li Shimin's actions made many people a little apprehensive.
But now it's really different, let many princes personally lead the troops, which is bigger than the previous small fights.
It can even be said to be a real test, after the eldest grandson Wuji and others walked out of the imperial study, the undercurrent was destined to begin to emerge.
As for Li Shimin, his eyes flickered when he looked at the departing figures of these henchmen, and he had some inexplicable emotions.
He saw the secret actions of several sons, but this also gave Li Shimin some ideas.
It can be said that Li Shimin has been thinking about this matter before, and finally saw the words left by his father.
Li Shimin suddenly realized that he could shelter these sons for a while, but he was destined to not shelter for a lifetime.
Under such circumstances, Li Shimin decided to let these sons experience it for themselves.
In the end, choose whether to replace the prince, if the real prince is not the most suitable heir of Datang.
In order to maintain the foundation of Datang, then Li Shimin will really consider replacing people.
After seeing the vastness of the world, Li Shimin did not want the next monarch of the Tang Dynasty to be a monarch who kept his will.
Instead, I hope that there will be an emperor who will continue to expand the territory for the Tang Dynasty, and the world is so big that Li Shimin feels a little powerless.
Shu An, who was still in Taiyuan at this time, didn't know that because of his own reasons, this emperor had a new idea.
Otherwise, he would definitely smile bitterly, because if he meant it, he still said that this era belonged to Li Shimin, not Li Chengqian and others.
Li Chengqian and others, in Shu An's eyes, feel that they are still too immature, not everyone is Li Shimin, and they have been starting from horseback since they were teenagers.
You must know that Li Shimin was gambling with his life at the beginning, and if the Li family had an incident, everyone, including Li Yuan, would be worried.
Because at that time, it was destined that there would only be one way to go to the dark, either to live or to die.
It's not even as confident as Shu An's confidence in them, but this is normal, Shu An is because he knows the historical trend.
.......
The news about the discussion in the imperial study room was not hidden from some people in the end.
In other words, since the eldest grandson Wuji and others stepped out, this war with the goal of the heir has begun.
East Palace
"Bang!"
The sound of the vase breaking sounded, and Li Chengqian's eyes couldn't help but be angry and dissatisfied.
You must know that the news about the re-establishment of the crown prince by his father has been spread.
Among them, Li Chengqian is the one who does the most harm, after all, he is the prince himself.
The humble and polite Li Chengqian, with the passage of time, has begun to be a little blurred.
As he gets older, the greater the pressure on Li Chengqian, and there are too many people staring at the prince up and down the entire court.
Especially since Li Shimin is rich in hand, naturally the court will not be too shabby.
However, it is this luxury that has also led many people to impeach.
Wei Zheng, Yu Zhining, Zhang Xuansu, etc., can be said to be the objects that Li Chengqian hates.
"Prince, Your Majesty has instructed many generals not to interfere in this matter."
"However, it is possible to arrange some brave and warlike generals to attack Gaochang for the prince."
......
Beside Li Chengqian, a middle-aged general said with a gloomy face, but there was not much respect in his words.
This person is none other than Hou Junji, if Li Chengqian is now the person sitting on the dragon chair, then Hou Junji must be very respectful.
However, now he is the emperor Li Shimin, and Li Chengqian is only the crown prince, and he is still the prince whose status is in jeopardy.
So Hou Junji is naturally not so respectful, strictly speaking, the founding prince of the country is not afraid of these princes.
As long as he does not ascend to that position for a day, then these princes may have a higher status in Li Shimin's mind than these princes.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Li Chengqian's mood gradually recovered, and he was also very polite to Hou Junji.
is not only Hou Junji's support and supported relationship, but also Hou Junji's marriage of his daughter and Li Chengqian's side concubine.
It can be said that the two are now on the same line, and with the help of Hou Junji, Li Chengqian also regained some confidence.
In fact, Li Chengqian also has a concubine Su, whose father is the secretary Cheng Su, but more of them support him above the court.
In the court, except for the East Palace, it is also impossible for other princes to be indifferent.
"This time, my father finally gave me a chance."
In a palace, a young man whispered softly with an excited look on his face.
The young man's name is Li Ke, and he is Li Shimin's third son, and unlike Li Chengqian, this prince is completely dependent on his own ability.
A few years ago, he rushed to the fiefdom and successively went to Qizhou as the governor and Yizhou as the governor, setting a precedent for the prince to lead the governor.
But because of some mistakes, he was dismissed and had already returned to Chang'an for some time.
Of course, there are also some battles between imperial powers, and even some small mistakes will be infinitely magnified.
Even Li Chengqian had already regarded this brother as his biggest opponent, and he was even more stubbornly staring at him.
But the interesting thing is that Li Ke corrected his mistakes when he knew them, and he was good at accepting the words of virtuous ministers, even Li Shimin loved them very much.
Now, Li Ke is bound to win this crusade against Gaochang, and he is even very confident in himself.
Because when he was the governor, he was not without contact with the soldiers.
And Li Ke is not without advantages, because of his identity, many ministers of the Sui Dynasty still have a lot of good feelings towards the prince.
Otherwise, Li Ke would not be regarded as an opponent by Li Chengqian.
In addition, there are also Li You, the king of Qi, and Li You, the king of Liang, who have all received notices, and of course, there is one person who has to be mentioned in addition.
That's Li Tai, the reason is very simple, this time Li Tai's words were naturally involved without exception.
Being said by this word has already revealed that Li Tai did not mean it, in fact, Li Tai's own small life is called a brisk.
Even after having a daughter-in-law, the two died like glue, and it was precisely because of this that Li Tai, who received the news, was confused.
The road to Gaochang is a little long, and because of the crusade against Gaochang, it will take at least a year, and Li Tai is reluctant to go.
