Chapter 575: Intercede for Li Yuanchang

After grinding for a while, Li Tai was sent away, and Li Chengqian walked into the old man's study: "Erchen has seen his father. ”

"If you steal less than five cucumbers, go back." Li Ertou didn't raise his head, holding the copy of the bamboo book chronicle, turning it little by little.

Li Chengqian has read this book, and with his ability to never forget it, he doesn't need to look at the cover page, just look at a few words in the content to already know what the old man is reading.

But now is obviously not the time to tell a story, although the old man's words are not very direct, and the meaning is also very tactful, but the purpose is very clear: if you don't take out a cucumber to honor Lao Tzu, you can go!

Since Li Chengqian dared to take out the cucumber and divide the dirt outside the old man's study, he naturally would not be unprepared, and shook out two more cucumbers from his arms with a smile on his face and put them on the old man's table: "Father, don't tell the queen mother, otherwise I'm afraid that the son's ears won't be saved." ”

"It depends." Li Er grabbed a cucumber, put it in his mouth and bit a piece, chewed it 'click', and turned his head to look at Old Eunuch Fang: "You have eaten it, I won't give it to you." ”

"Huh?!" Old Eunuch Fang was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't react a little, how did Li Er know that he had eaten.

Li Chengqian glanced at the old eunuch helplessly, bared his front teeth, and tapped on it with his fingers, which made the old eunuch embarrassed, and hurriedly turned his back to cover his face with his sleeves to clean up.

After nibbling on a cucumber, Li Er cleaned his mouth with the tea on the table and asked, "What is the matter with me today?" ”

"Father, what are you going to do with Li Yuanchang? Do you want him to continue to exile in Yazhou? Li Chengqian put away his playful expression and asked very seriously.

Li Er smacked his lips and snorted: "In the end, he is the son of your imperial grandfather and my younger brother, if you toss him endlessly like this, it will be difficult to explain to your imperial grandfather in the future." ”

"Father, the son is here to intercede for him, not to toss him." Li Chengqian looked aggrieved and said with a bitter face.

"Intercession?" Li Erhu looked at his son suspiciously: "What the hell do you want to do, don't tell me that you really want to intercede with him, you are definitely not a person who repays grievances with virtue." ”

"Father, Hu Laoba has been caught, and it has been proven that it has nothing to do with him, so Erchen feels that he seems to have been wrong to blame Uncle Yuanchang before, so he ......" Li Chengqian spread out his hand and signaled that he had no other meaning, just wanted to resolve a misunderstanding.

"I know about Hu Laoba, but even if this matter has nothing to do with Li Yuanchang, he will always be responsible for his subordinates, so forget about interceding." Li Chengqian didn't tell the truth, Li Er naturally wouldn't let go, and directly rejected his son's request.

"Father, now is the time to employ people, and the ministers in the Western Regions have not been at ease, so it is better to let Uncle Yuanchang go to the town and town in the Western Regions, so as to save the chaos over there."

"He's going to town? If Daozong can't be suppressed over there, can he, Li Yuanchang, be able to suppress it? Li Er looked at his son with disdain.

I don't find a suitable reason for lying, this kind of excuse is too fake, as long as everyone knows that Li Chengqian has a special calculation in it.

"The ruler is short, the inch is long, Uncle Jiangxia is a military general, and he is always not as smooth as Uncle Yuanchang in handling things, so Erchen thinks it is more appropriate to be Uncle Yuanchang." Li Chengqian said it very seriously, and people who don't know may really think that what he said is true.

It's just that Li Yuanchang is only thirteen years old, even if the Tang Dynasty is an early adult, and the children of the royal family are more precocious, it is impossible to be stronger than Li Daozong. Besides, Li Daozong is also a member of the clan, and he is also a royal family, so he is not necessarily so bad in terms of dealing with the world.

"Boy, tell us your purpose, or I won't agree to your request." As a father, Li Er knows Li Chengqian's character very well, and knows that he is by no means a generous person, and there must be an ulterior motive in this plea.

Li Chengqian was forced by the old man and really had no choice, scratched his head and said: "Father, the son feels that if Uncle Yuanchang's character goes to the Western Regions, he will definitely stir up the city, and it may even cause strong dissatisfaction among the countries in the Western Regions, and finally break out into a fierce conflict with my Tang Dynasty, so that my Tang Dynasty can directly send troops and control the entire Western Regions in our hands." ”

Li Er's pupils shrank, and the expression on his face tended to be serious: "Are you going to borrow a knife to kill someone?" Planning to use the knife of the Western Regions to find Li Yuanchang? ”

Shaking his head, Li Chengqian said: "Father, how is this possible, Uncle Yuanchang will definitely have the most powerful force as his escort when he arrives in the Western Regions, and the people of the Western Regions want to move him, don't destroy our tens of thousands of Tang troops, don't even think about it." ”

"You go back first, I'll think about it." Li Er didn't discuss with Li Chengqian what his true physiognomy was, but simply sent him away.

Speaking of which, Li Er already understood Li Chengqian's thoughts, but he still needed to think carefully about whether he should agree.

Li Chengqian also knew that things should not be rushed, and if he forced the old man to agree now, it would clearly prove that he had a problem, and if he didn't get it right, he wouldn't be able to do it.

Li Yuanchang went to the Western Regions, and according to his greedy character, it was indeed very likely that something would happen, and he might be killed. But this possibility is extremely small, if those Western Regions had not gone crazy, it would generally not have been possible to do this.

The current Western Regions are about to be driven crazy by the 30,000 troops of the Tang Dynasty, but they still dare not do anything to Li Daozong and Wang Xuance, which is enough to show that not everyone in the Western Regions is so impulsive that they will dare to murder the Prince of the Tang Dynasty because of anger.

Therefore, if it is said that Li Chengqian's plan to kill people with a knife is undoubtedly a failure, and it is basically impossible to succeed.

But Li Chengqian would never do meaningless things, such as sending Li Yuanchang to the Western Regions and letting him eat sand there for a few years, such a thing an unscrupulous prince would never do.

One is that there is no righteousness, and the other is that this level of anger does not calm the hatred in someone's heart.

So in Li Er's opinion, Li Chengqian must have his own way of operating in this matter, and if there is no accident, Li Yuanchang will definitely die in the Western Regions, and now the difference is that he doesn't know what the plan in this bastard's heart is.

It is impossible to assassinate him halfway, if he wants to assassinate him halfway, Li Chengqian has no need to intercede for him at all, as long as he is on the way to exile.

It is also impossible to kill people with a knife, as I just said, the countries of the Western Regions should not provoke the Tang Dynasty for a prince who is not important in the Tang Dynasty, if Li Yuanchang is too unreasonable in the Western Regions, the most he can do is to hand over a letter of state and ask the Tang Dynasty to transfer him back.

After thousands of calculations, Li Er thought of all possibilities, but the only thing he didn't expect was whether Li Yuanchang would rebel.
