Chapter 663: Unlucky Wu Youren

Li Yan and the queen and his wife did not react immediately, and the queen said: "Chongjiu, you are the crown prince and the prince of the country, how can you leave the capital, even if your father and emperor want to go to Taiyuan, you can't go!" ”

Li Yan nodded, he also meant this, what the queen said was exactly what he thought.

In the Dafang Empire, of course, in the previous dynasty, the crown prince is not only the emperor's son, but also the next king of the country, so it is absolutely impossible to have an accident, for example, there is a war at the border pass, if the emperor has to drive the expedition in person, then the emperor will lead troops to fight even if he is unwilling, but the emperor will definitely not let the prince go.

There are two key points here, one is on the surface, and the other is secretly not to say, of course, the prince of the country on the bright side, and nothing can happen, so you must stay in the capital, honestly learn the way of governing the country, and prepare for the class of the old emperor in the future.

The reason that can't be said secretly is that he is afraid that the prince will rebel, before the imperial power, to be honest, sometimes the son can't be completely trusted, in history, the emperor's father is suspicious of the prince's son, and there are many cases of killing the son, and the prince's son killing the emperor's father is more, of course, it is not limited to the prince's son, other prince's sons have also killed their fathers, as for the elder brother killing his younger brother, the younger brother stabbed his brother to death There are more than countless.

In this case, the emperor's father generally will not let the prince's son lead the army, in case the prince's son thinks that the emperor's father has lived too long and has not died, delaying him to become the emperor, so once he has the military power, he is in a hurry to rebel, wouldn't it be bad, and fathers and sons cannibalism are rare?

It should be rare in ordinary people's homes, but in the emperor's house, it is not uncommon! Therefore, generally speaking, the crown prince cannot leave Beijing to lead troops, and there are few precedents. Unless the old emperor is terminally ill, but now Li Yan is alive and well, and he is very healthy!

Li Chongjiu has almost no understanding of what responsibilities and taboos he should have for the position of prince, and even if he does, it is all superficial.

He used to be just a down-and-out prince who could be killed at any time, and he cared about how to be a prince, and he might as well care about whether the eldest princess and aunt would kill him. And a few days after becoming the prince, he was forced into a corner by Yang Ze, and he didn't have the prestige of being a prince at all, and he still didn't have time to think about what the prince should do!

Therefore, when Li Chongjiu thought about things, he only thought about it from the reason on the surface, but he didn't think about it from the reason in secret, because he didn't know the reason in the secret at all.

After listening to the queen's words, Li Chongjiu was quite anxious. He thought that the queen was too doting on him, of course, it was impossible for him to say this himself, he just said very anxiously: "Father, queen mother, son, and minister used to live in a manor outside Chang'an City. Almost without leaving home, I haven't seen much of the world, and now that I'm a prince, I feel that I don't have any ability. The retainers are afraid of being ridiculed by the courtiers, so they really want to learn more skills! ”

Li Yan and the queen glanced at each other, although they had already understood the taste. Li Chongjiu was afraid of Yang Ze's revenge, so he wanted to escape from Chang'an City and go to other places to avoid the limelight, but the prince was forced out of Beijing by King Yan, which is really easy to say.

Seeing that his parents still did not agree, Li Chongjiu said again: "As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books, if the sons and daughters have been staying in Chang'an City, in a small piece of the East Palace, I am afraid that they will never learn any skills, and the sons are really afraid of disappointing the expectations of their father and mother, and they will not be able to become a prince who can make a difference!" ”

Li Yan frowned and said: "The cause and effect of this matter, my father and your mother already know, but the matter of going to Taiyuan still needs to be considered in the long run, this is not a trivial matter, there has never been a precedent in this dynasty where the prince left Beijing to lead troops and was in power." With that, he looked at the queen.

The queen remembered the past, there was no precedent for the prince to leave Beijing and lead troops in this dynasty, but there was a precedent for the emperor to be exiled, and it was her husband who was exiled, and he took her to the frontier wilderness with her, and lived for more than ten years!

Li Yan said: "Queen, what do you think about this?" ”

The queen snorted and said, "There is no precedent, but in your court, there are fewer precedents?" ”

She didn't mean anything else, she didn't say that Cai Cai became the empress, Li Yan's throne was still given up by her daughter, nor did she say Yang Ze's power or anything, she just thought of where she was, and she just said it by the way, what she said was actually that Li Yan had been the prince, the emperor, and was exiled, she was not happy, and the tone of her speech was naturally not much better.

When Li Chongjiu heard this, he was happy in his heart, it seems that there is a drama, although the number of times he and his parents have seen each other, and the time they usually get along is short, but he knows very well that as long as his mother nods at everything, his father will definitely agree, and his father and father are quite afraid of guilt.

Li Yan's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said, "The prince is leaving Beijing...... Will this make people think that they were exiled, they were forced by the princess, so they had to go out of Beijing, so that there would be more battles between the DPRK and China in the future. ”

This is the thinking that an emperor should have, what can't just look at the present!

If Li Chongjiu really goes to Taiyuan and guards the land of Longxing of the Dafang Dynasty, although it will not be regarded as exiled, it will also be considered by many people that Li Chongjiu has fallen out of favor, and the position of the crown prince may not be guaranteed.

If there are many people who have this view, then while looking at Li Chongjiu, they will naturally be optimistic about Caicai, in other dynasties, there will be no good news about the princess, and not about the prince, because there are no women in other dynasties who have ever been emperors, but in this generation it is different, the world's supreme Dugu Empress has just died not long ago, women can be emperors at all, and Caicai is really the second empress, don't look at it only for one day, but when you have been, this cannot be denied.

If there are more people who support the princess and fewer people who support the crown prince, and the other rises, then can the country still have a stop!

When the queen heard this, she sighed and nodded, she understood what her husband meant, if Li Chongjiu was allowed to go to Taiyuan, it would indeed be a good way to avoid Yang Ze's revenge, but this method would cause future troubles, and for the country, this would not be a good thing.

When Li Chongjiu saw this, he was greatly surprised, why did he want to go to Taiyuan. It was incredible that he would be opposed by his father and queen mother, originally he thought it was a very simple thing, there was nothing difficult, how could it be opposed? Could it be that his father and queen mother wanted him to stay in the capital and was killed by Yang Ze?

He was originally a person with a somewhat radical temperament, once he had an idea, he would always think in that direction, and now he actually has an idea, that is, his father and mother still have their hearts on Caicai. Who let Caicai be raised by them, he has always been by their side, and Yang Ze is the one who helped them regain the throne, and the father and mother are biased towards them and are partial to them, and this qiē has a reasonable reason.

In an instant, Li Chongjiu had resentment in his heart, he didn't think about how good Li Yan and the queen were to him, he just thought of a cause and effect out of thin air. Then he began to resent, thinking that he himself was abandoned, that he was not welcomed, and even that his parents were harmful to him. Then let my sister become the queen again.

If a radical person has this kind of thought, and he is not deep in the world, he can't hide it, that look. It will be revealed. Li Chongjiu lowered his head, stopped squeaking, and his cheeks bulged. Obviously angry.

Wu Youren was behind Li Chongjiu's side, as soon as Li Chongjiu bowed his head, he saw the prince's expression, and his heart tightened, didn't he have a misunderstanding, this is not good, he finally got here, just to let Li Chongjiu go to Taiyuan, which is not only related to Li Chongjiu's future, but also related to his future!

Wu Youren bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, now that the clouds in Chang'an City are dense, I'm afraid there will be a storm." In the humble opinion of the minister, it is better to let one of the parties take a step back, you need to know that taking a step back is the sea and the sky! ”

He paused, and then said, "There are some things that the minister should not say, but the minister still has to say it." The emperor just said that he was afraid that the contradictions would increase in the future, but the minister did not see it that way, the prince was benevolent, if he went to Taiyuan to parade and test the local garrison, it would not only make the local garrison return to his heart, but also would not delay too long, and then the prince would return to Chang'an, although there were no soldiers around him, but there was strong reinforcement from outside, at that time, some people might have different intentions, but they did not dare to act rashly. The country, the country and the family are one. ”

His meaning was very clear, much easier to understand than what Li Chongjiu said.

Wu Youren is very straightforward to tell Li Yan and the queen, the crown prince needs to have military power, and he doesn't have to really go to Taiyuan for a long time, just go around and grasp the military power, so that after returning to Chang'an, Yang Ze will not dare to do anything to the crown prince, because the crown prince has foreign aid, and who is the foreign aid, of course, it is he Wu Youren, he is holding the military power in Taiyuan, echoing inside and outside, what else does Yang Ze dare to do?

In fact, it can be seen from this incident that Wu Youren is not very loyal to Li Chongjiu, of course, he didn't want to be loyal to Li Chongjiu from the beginning, he just wanted to get his own interests.

When Li Chongjiu returns to Chang'an, the battle with Yang Ze will not stop at all, but he Wu Youren is sitting in Taiyuan, if Li Chongjiu wins the battle, he can say that it is because of his relationship with the military power outside, and Li Chongjiu will also thank him, thinking that this is the case; And if Li Chongjiu fails, Wu Youren has military power in hand, and he can also bargain with Yang Ze, and even use the excuse of revenge for the prince to rebel and fight with Yang Ze for the world or something, of course, it depends on how he runs Taiyuan.

Anyway, Wu Youren will never suffer a loss, but uses the excuse of being righteous and bright and completely thinking about the prince to win the greatest benefits for himself.

When Li Chongjiu heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he didn't bring Wu Youren in vain, it seems that this confidant minister is still very powerful, and if this reason is said, the father and the queen mother will not object again, right?

Li Yan thought about it, and also felt that Wu Youren was reasonable, he was the kind of person who was kind-hearted, he didn't want anything to happen, he just wanted his family and everything to be prosperous, if he could cover the contradictions, he was willing, and he could see that his son Li Chongjiu seemed to be dissatisfied with him just now, and he didn't want this dissatisfaction to continue.

But the queen heard that something was wrong, from the overall point of view, the queen is definitely not as good as Li Yan, she can only look at the problem from a personal point of view, she can think about what Wu Youren said from a personal point of view, but she can just hear that she is tired, although the queen is not a master of conspiracy, but it does not mean that others want to engage in conspiracy, but she can't hear it.

Li Yan turned his head, looked at the queen, and said, "This ...... Queen, what do you think about this? ”

He also wants to listen to his wife's opinion, if he wants to say that no one in this world will calculate him, that is this old wife who shares his weal and pain, don't look at this old wife who usually scolds him, but she is also sincerely good to him.

The queen glanced at Li Chongjiu, she also saw the dissatisfied expression of her son just now, and she didn't want this dissatisfaction to continue, but she wouldn't agree immediately.

The queen said: "Such a big matter, how can I talk about it now, and then decide, my son wants to stay away from us, this palace is reluctant, but it doesn't seem right to delay him to learn his skills, otherwise let's think about it again, and then make a decision when we think about it." ”

Li Chongjiu is in a hurry, what's going on, can't make a decision now? But if he decides a few days late, maybe Yang Ze's revenge will come, and he can't afford to wait.

Wu Youren chuckled in his heart, and a bad premonition arose, is there any accident, why is this queen so much, and the emperor is really enough, he can't make his own decisions about anything, and he even has to ask his wife, who is in charge of this court, is it difficult or a woman is in charge?

Li Yan immediately knew that the queen didn't want to say something in front of her son, since this was the case, then don't say it in person, he nodded and said: "Yes, the queen is right, such a big thing really needs to be thought about." Chongjiu, you go back to the East Palace, you are studying in the East Palace, I will often go to see you, go back! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and motioned for Li Chongjiu to leave. Li Chongjiu had no choice but to leave with his head down, Wu Youren wanted to say something, but it can be seen that the emperor didn't take him seriously at all, so he had to follow Li Chongjiu dejectedly.

After his son left, Li Yan sent away the little eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting around him, and asked the queen, "Do you have something to tell me?" ”

The queen nodded and said, "That Wu Youren is too thoughtful, this palace doesn't think he's a good person, he wants to calculate our son, and even his son-in-law wants to calculate it......"

She told Li Yan what she thought just now, and after Li Yan heard it, she exclaimed, "Really? Originally, I didn't think of this, but after you said it, isn't that what it is, so what should we do? ”

The queen sighed and said: "Have you seen that Chongjiu is afraid that he has a grudge against us, he is complaining that we are eccentric and towards the dishes." ”

Li Yan was silent, but he didn't know what to do, he only felt the debt of his children, which made it difficult for him, a good father.

The queen said: "If you don't let Chongjiu go to Taiyuan and get an army of his own, I'm afraid he will be resentful, so let him go, anyway, we will have one of his sons, and if this throne is not given to him in the future, who else can he give it." ”

Li Yan was silent for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh and nodded in agreement.

But the queen said: "That Wu Youren is not a good thing, you can't let him stay in Taiyuan, Taiyuan stays in this position, let Chongjiu sit, and increase the name of the governor, as for Wu Youren, belittle him, this kind of minister who dares to calculate the people in the royal family, can not stay by Chongjiu's side, doesn't he want to go to Taiyuan, then let him be a Tuntian outsider!" ”

Li Yan sighed and said: "Let me think about it again, think about it again, I always feel that this matter will cause a lot of trouble, and I have a very bad premonition, so I have to be cautious!" (To be continued......)
