Emperor Ming Yuan heard that cold sweat fell, and he wanted to defend himself, but found that he couldn't defend himself.

Prince Anfeng continued: "The crown prince, you don't assess the ability of the kings, focus on preferences and preferences, those who flatter look at each other, and those who are disobedient will not be considered, resulting in the country's capital, fighting for a long time, and finally disturbing the city, to establish Yuwenhao as the prince, you are unwilling, always afraid of the wrong position, and repeatedly let Yuwen'an sit big, if it is not for the prince's containment, Yuwen'an's ambition has not stopped. Then there is the leprosy mountain, when the conditions in the country were bad, the surrounding area came several times, Xianbei and the Northern Desert eyed each other, most of the country's energy was transferred to the border, and when you ascended the throne, you could have picked up the people's livelihood matters in the country, reformed medical care, education, but you didn't do anything, still follow your father's last resort, until the crown princess cured the leprosy, you feel safe, then determined to reform, these years, you are not a big mistake, but you also did not make a big achievement, when you sent troops to the Northern Desert, you still pushed many times, missed the best time, Fortunately, the crown prince didn't listen to you and secretly refined his weapons, otherwise, today's Northern Tang Imperial Palace would have been bleeding like a river, and you are sitting on the throne today and ordering the ministers? ”

"And let you say it yourself, the year after you ascended the throne, you went to the disaster area when the Huaijiang River was flooded, and you didn't close your eyes for three days and three nights, and you made people sing praises for a year, and the people talked about you being a holy monarch all year long, but even now, you have never ordered the construction of a dam, and the disaster is still there."

"You can spend all these years safely, not because of how lucky you are, but because there are Chu Xiaowuzi, your father abdicated, Chu Xiaowu didn't have to be the first assistant, in order to support you, he was not in good health, and he still served as the first assistant, but you really embarrassed him, these years just wiped your ass for you, and exhausted his energy, you in order to revitalize farming, suppress business, but all cultivators, get the title of good people, in order to increase the number of people who cultivated land, reclaim the barren, you open the prison door, regardless of the murder or exile of felons, you are all sent to reclamation, After three years of reclamation, he forgave his crimes and issued a certificate of good citizenship, which led to an increase in local murder cases year after year, and the first assistant went to the state capitals to supervise the state government yamen to set up a special anti-murder team, and almost died of exhaustion on the road, and so on, and so on, the list goes on, what face do you have to say that you are a meritorious king? Don't argue that your father did this when he was in the dynasty, but he had no choice but to do it at that time, after fighting for so many years, the national strength was weak, and the people were gone, so he could only do this, but you didn't need to, he had cleared most of the obstacles for you when he abdicated. ”

Emperor Ming Yuan's face was like ashes, he had no way to refute Prince Anfeng, he was indeed not Ming Jun.

After Prince Anfeng counted it, he looked at his expression and said: "But, although you have no great achievements, you are not a big mistake, you are indeed not a mediocre and incompetent emperor, you distinguish between right and wrong, dedicated to the people, and diligent, do not delay in pleasure, focus on political affairs, the people are willing to call you a king, not because of how much you have made, but because you have not added too much chaos to this country." This king doesn't blame you, when he made you the prince, it was because you had the feelings of the family and the country, diligent, willing to be wronged for the Northern Tang Dynasty, and valued the country and lightened yourself, but when you no longer have these, you are not worthy of being the emperor, now, it seems that the four seas have been leveled, you have suddenly become important, and you have begun to make a small character, but your father and the first assistant, in the more than ten years that you have been the king, have worn out their energy, and after this war with the Northern Desert, do they still have the strength to see that you continue to be mediocre? When it was time for you to make drastic reforms, you still stagnated, and even lost your temper at this time, do you think, can you still be the emperor? This king does not give you this face, and leads the army to besiege the imperial city, which is to tell you that you are not good as this emperor, this king can replace you at any time, you can choose to continue to be mediocre, you can also choose to use wise men, abolish bad governance, build water conservancy, build roads, revitalize the economy after the development of farming, enhance national strength, military, and stabilize the status of the Northern Tang Dynasty, because the next 20 years are crucial, and the Northern Tang Dynasty can only really be compared with the Great Zhou, Dayue, Daxing and other countries by doing what the king said, otherwise, it is still backward. ”

Emperor Ming Yuan heard that his heart was cold for a while, and it was hot for a while, only to feel that the blood in his whole body was buzzing to his head, and then it faded away with a bang, and his whole body was cold, he always thought that he was doing well, and the people thought so, but he dreamed back at midnight, and he was always weak-hearted, which showed that what Prince Anfeng said was not bad at all, he was not wrong, but it was useless.

And the twenty years that Prince Anfeng has been emphasizing are exactly the same as what the Emperor Taishang once told him, but he didn't feel that there was such urgency, because this time he suffered a heavy defeat to the Northern Desert and signed a peace agreement.

And he thinks, what's wrong with vigorously developing agriculture? Only when the people are fed, can they develop national strength, and he has not left behind the business economy, in the past two years, it has also been developing, although this is what the fifth child has to do, but there is no conflict with his original intention, he even married the princess to Leng Yan, improve the status of the businessman.

He did what he thought he should do, and as for the less urgent, the national strength did not allow it, and he couldn't do anything.

He chewed on this sentence repeatedly in his heart, but he heard Prince Anfeng say again, "Twenty years, not all of you will develop, these twenty years, there will be all kinds of contradictions, domestic contradictions, and some frictions with neighboring countries, so, you can't be tired, you can't relax, you can't delay, being an emperor, it's too much!" ”

Emperor Ming Yuan looked at him in a daze, didn't he want to force the palace? How did you teach him a lesson?

Prince Anfeng also looked at him, "So, do you admit that you are confused?" This king just asked you, why has this king not come for so many years, but now he is here? You haven't even thought about other possibilities, just thinking that this king is coveting your throne, the world is so big, everything is not just one reason, if your brain is unchanged, so you don't go to other fields, don't explore other possibilities, the Northern Tang Dynasty will be the same as you, forever stagnant! ”

"So, you're not here to force the palace?" Emperor Ming Yuan asked.

He patted Emperor Ming Yuan on the shoulder, "For a country, crises are always everywhere, think about it, don't always shout that you are not wrong, at the beginning of your establishment, I knew that you were mediocre, your father and emperor worked hard to plan for you, although he was not satisfied for many years, he did not interfere with you too much, he was afraid of damaging your prestige and would be afraid to be the emperor, he was struggling to support him in his old age, when you were your backing, this time it seems to be for the dispute between the prince and you, but in fact, the prince is a bright light he chose for you, he is afraid that if he is not there, You are wary of the prince again, then the future of the Northern Tang Dynasty, he can already foresee, he must ensure that you believe in the prince, truly achieve a bowl of water, and will not threaten the status of the country because of other princes or princes, so he can rest assured. He is not partial to the prince or fighting for the status of the prince, he is afraid that you will be angry for a while, and you will be favored for a while, which will damage the harmony of his brothers, ruin his decades-long planning, and ruin the Northern Tang Dynasty! ”

Prince Anfeng paused, raised his head, his eyes were as cold as electricity, "If you do this, this king will come again, obey the edict of the emperor, and ascend the throne as the emperor, you are so self-conscious!" ”
