Chapter 338: What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

And there is another point that Fang Xuanling can't ignore it.

That is, Li Chengqian was suddenly reinstated-will this give some people, including Li Chengqian, a wrong intuition? That is, Li Chengqian actually did not completely lose the emperor's favor, and he may still have a chance to turn around?

Or, this is not a question of whether it will be or not at all, but it is almost inevitable - Li Chengqian has been the crown prince for more than ten years, and it is impossible to say that he does not have a little confidant. What's more, when Li Chengqian was deposed, a large number of officials close to him were implicated and dismissed. The fact that these people lost the political struggle because they were on the wrong side is nothing in itself, and this in itself is the cruelty of politics, but they themselves are obviously unwilling to just quit the political arena.

Except for some of them, there are other ways to get a new life, and most of the rest have been silenced, they are not willing to fail like this, they have been trying to make a comeback, and even someone has already made contact with the enemies of the Tang Dynasty, hiding in the dark and planning to give Li Zhen a ruthless ...... at a critical moment

Originally, they had lost ground, and no matter how much they tossed, they couldn't make any waves, which basically had no impact on Li Zhen.

But if Li Chengqian really serves as the governor of Tianzhu with the support of Li Shimin, he will definitely make these people think in a complicated way - maybe he still has a chance? Once someone has such an idea, it will inevitably cause some trouble to the new crown prince today, that is, Li Zhen.

Although Fang Xuanling belongs to the neutral faction, he basically does not easily express his opinions on the inheritance of the throne. But his two sons are all working under Li Zhen after all, the eldest son is a master of the East Palace Prince's Mansion, and the second son is the prince's cronies.

In other words, his two sons are labeled as princes, so although Fang Xuanling is more likely to put justice first in handling things, it is inevitable that he will still favor Li Zhen in some aspects - for example, the stability of Li Zhen's position as the crown prince, Fang Xuanling absolutely supports Li Zhen, otherwise once Li Zhen loses power in the future, then his two sons will definitely be implicated, and then the Fang family may be implicated......

It's just that Li Chengqian is the prince of the dynasty after all, even if he has been demoted, he has not even become a prince, but he has only been crowned a county king, but this does not deny his identity as the eldest son of today's holy grandson - that is to say, although Li Shimin's intention to let Li Chengqian serve as the governor of Tianzhu seems to be an official matter, but in fact it is a political confrontation within the royal family, a matter within the royal family, and outsiders only have a dead end when they interfere.

Therefore, even if Fang Xuanling wanted to oppose Li Shimin's suggestion very much, he did not dare to intervene because of this, and now he only hopes that Li Zhen will stand up and oppose it - although this possibility is not very ...... On the contrary, Li Zhen will be more likely to agree to Li Shimin's proposal, because what Li Shimin wants to see most is brotherhood, friendship and brotherhood, rather than causing brothers to fall apart and even attack each other for the sake of the highest throne.

On the one hand, they really can't guess Li Shimin's mind and can't figure out what kind of medicine is sold in his gourd, on the other hand, it is also for this reason, the royal affairs are not easy to mix, and the slightest carelessness is the death of the clan, and the best way in this kind of thing is to stand in the middle, and no one can be offended......

"Hahaha...... Seeing that all of you Aiqing are silent, don't you mean not to object? Li Shimin laughed: "Very good, it seems that I and all Aiqing are really heroes, Gao Ming is my favorite child, and he has been trained in the position of the prince for a long time, although he is no longer suitable to be a prince for other reasons, but his ability is beyond doubt, and it is more than enough to serve as the governor of Tianzhu." ”

"Your Majesty is wise ......" has said this, what else do the officials have to say? Li Shimin has already made up his mind to support Li Chengqian as the governor of Tianzhu, so what is the use of the hundred officials even if they really oppose it?

"Zhen'er? You didn't speak...... Could it be that you have a different opinion? After asking the hundred officials, Li Shimin pointed his goal at Li Zhen again, looking at Li Zhen's embarrassed appearance now, he finally suppressed the smile in his heart - in the past, whenever you expected the enemy to take the lead, sometimes even my limelight could be covered, and you were so embarrassed in your heart? Finally, I can crush your kid, scare you, some here, I feel comfortable in my heart.

At this time, Li Zhen was indeed very embarrassed, if it weren't for the strong concentration that he had cultivated over the years, he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself when Li Shimin just proposed it. Despite this, during this period of time, he was still sweating profusely, his face was pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and his clothes were almost soaked, and his performance was very unbearable.

"No, Erchen doesn't have a different opinion, the eldest brother's ability is very clear, he instructed Erchen when he was in Nanyang, and he admires the eldest brother and Erchen very much." Li Zhen hurriedly affirmed, of course he would not object at this time, looking at Li Shimin's current appearance, he obviously already knew about his deal with Li Chengqian, although he didn't know who leaked it to him, and what was the purpose of that person leaking it to him, but at present, Li Shimin is still very supportive of this, otherwise he would not help himself to bear the blame and withstand the pressure from the outside world - you must know that since the Tang Dynasty, and even hundreds of years after the Two Jin Dynasty, because he has suffered enough of the sub-feudal system, There are very few princes who are sent abroad to serve as princes, and they are afraid that the prince's rebellion will cause misery.

Now Li Shimin not only sent his son out to serve as a prince (Li Zhen himself does not count, because his release was actually exchanged for things and promises, and the hundred officials also agreed), but also the identity of this son is so special, if this proposal is put forward by Li Zhen, I believe that both the government and the opposition and the people will have a fierce opposition to it, and may even threaten his position as the crown prince.

But if it is proposed by Li Shimin, this matter will be much easier, because he and Li Chengqian are father and son - now Li Shimin has removed him from the position of crown prince for the sake of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Tang Dynasty, and compensated him with a Tianzhu governor who is almost similar to the Tu Emperor, which is also reasonable, and I believe that the government and the public can understand it.
