Chapter 1051 Live well
The atmosphere in the East Nuan Pavilion became more and more serious. Although the old princes were still sitting there, they could not sit still. They did not expect that His Majesty would tell the prince so directly, so they were caught off guard by the emperor's backhand.
"His Majesty."
King Han stood up again. He was the oldest among several people, so the others also looked at his expression, and of course they were willing to be the first to him. King Han had competed for the throne with Li Chengtang's father back then. Losing was not destined, but his ability was indeed not as good as Li Chengtang's father.
This person smelled the smell of power nearly thirty years ago. What did Mu Zhaotong promised him to assist the kings in governing? What did that mean? It means that he will become the Regent!
In his opinion, what's so great about the wife of the late emperor Li Chengyuan, the queen at that time? He was just a woman. Prince Xin Wang Li Xiaoran was only a few years old and naturally had to let him do it. He had even made a long-term plan to gradually gain power in the court. He failed once in a fight for the throne, but he was not really convinced.
He thought that the first step was to gain the trust of the queen and make the queen distant and suspicious of Mu Zhaotong bit by bit. As long as he grasped the two cards of the queen and the prince in his hand, he could squeeze Mu Zhaotong out of the power center within a few years.
The second step is that after Mu Zhaotong cannot take control of the cabinet, he will personally take over the cabinet, as the prince and the chief minister of the cabinet. At this moment, all the powers in the court are in his hands.
In the third step, he had already figured out that the death of the late emperor Li Chengyuan had some connection with the queen. Li Chengyuan was considered an excellent emperor, but he was particularly mean and polite to women. Because the queen did not give birth to a child for him, he kept thinking about how to depose the queen and replace him. The queen was worried because of this. In fact, it was not just the queen, and there was no one left in the harem for him. But Li Chengyuan seemed that others could not have children but the queen could not.
So at that time, King Han speculated that Li Chengyuan died suddenly, and maybe it was the queen's plan. For the queen, both were bad choices, so let's choose the slightly better ones.
If Li Chengyuan did not die, she would sooner or later depose her throne and would also give her a false charge. It would be fine if she could leave Weiyang Palace safely, but in fact, which queen who was deposed throughout the ages would have a good ending? Even if the emperor did not kill him, the new queen would find a way to kill her. Besides, she knew Li Chengyuan's ruthlessness, and she really waited until Li Chengyuan made up her mind that day she would definitely die.
King Han knew these things, and many people knew them, but these things could not be exposed to the people of Daning.
One of these two bad choices is to let Emperor Li Chengyuan mercy, and it is not good to die if he dies.
The second one is to kill Li Chengyuan. Li Chengyuan has no descendants, none of them, so he must have chosen one of the children of the kings. As long as she has a little contact with Mu Zhaotong, Mu Zhaotong will definitely help her. How can he take the lead?
That is the State Administration.
Besides, it was precisely because Li Chengyuan was gradually weakening the power in Mu Zhaotong's hands that Mu Zhaotong had conspired with the queen. Li Chengyuan was not a fool. Of course, he knew that a powerful cabinet chief minister and grandson would be equivalent to separating most of the imperial power, and the imperial power could not be left behind.
King Han sent someone to investigate at that time, which was probably similar to his speculation. Although there was no conclusive evidence that Li Chengyuan was conspired to kill by the queen and Mu Zhaotong, King Han knew that his chance had come.
So he
The third step is to tell the story of the queen and Mu Zhaotong conspiring to kill the emperor after he held the power. How quickly would this happen? It won’t take long for the whole of Daning to fall into condemnation.
He stood at a high moral level and also at a high level of power. After deposing Mu Zhaotong, he then abolished the queen. So what qualifications does the prince Li Xiaoran, the product of the queen's pursuit of power, have the qualifications to sit on the throne?
At this time, his fourth step can be started.
He does not intend to be the emperor himself, that will be the target of public criticism, but he can make his son the emperor.
In this way, the throne of Daning changed from Li Chengyuan's lineage to his lineage, and they were all from the Li family, but the Li family and the Li family are different.
So later, when Li Chengtang, the king of Liu, suddenly became the heir to the throne, suddenly had the support of the sword and the imperial guards, how could King Han accept it? His overall situation was killed in the cradle before it even unfolded. Only he could understand this kind of aggrievance. At that time, Li Chengtang first returned to Chang'an and wanted to ask them to help, how could he agree?
This kind of help is not just to assist the kings in power, but to let Li Chengtang send him so he refused.
At this moment, he stood in front of Li Chengtang again, and the grievances and grievances of thirty years ago seemed to have all returned to him all at once.
"His Majesty!"
King Han took a deep breath and told himself not to be impulsive and not to act voluntarily. He no longer had the ambitions he had thirty years ago. At this moment, he just wanted to protect the purity of the Li family's bloodline.
"At this moment, there are no outsiders."
After saying this, King Han was silent for a moment, and suddenly knelt down on the table: "I have words like a thorn in my throat and don't vomit. Your Majesty, there is rumors outside that General Shen Leng is Your Majesty's child. I don't know if this is true."
The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly.
King Han knelt there: "Your Majesty, please listen to me after I finished speaking. I don't know what happened. It should be impossible to confirm. Even if it is certain, a prince who has been drifting outside for so many years will not be able to return to the Li family genealogy. Once his identity is confirmed, how many people in the Daning people will scold Your Majesty? After scolding him, such a scandal must not be spread, and it is related to the decency of the royal family."
"So no matter what Feng Shen Leng is, as long as he does not return to the family tree, I will have no objection and no obstacle."
He raised his head and looked at the emperor: "Besides, the second prince's life experience is really born to Concubine Yi and the guard named Gong Tian, the second prince will not have the blood of the Li family. I know that this matter cannot be finalized, so I beg Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly. It is found that it is wronged by Concubine Yi, so what should I do? What if it is found out is true?"
King Han lowered his head: "I hope Your Majesty will think about the Crown Prince twice, be loyal and virtuous, and whether you know character or ability, you are the best choice. Your Majesty said that the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince will go in a private relationship, but Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is Your Majesty's eldest son, and that is also my grandchildren. Is it a sin to have more contacts?"
The emperor listened very seriously and sat down from behind the desk. Although his eyes did not look at King Han, he could hear every word King Han said clearly.
"Uncle Emperor."
The emperor's eyes were withdrawn from the window and fell on King Han.
"You said before that you need an explanation and an explanation."
He looked at King Han's face: "This explanation and explanation means that whether Chen Leng is a prince has nothing to do with whether he is a general.
It has nothing to do with you if Leng’s identity is certain or not, whether it can be classified into the family tree.”
The emperor put his hands on the table, which seemed to be placed there casually, but the blood vessels on the back of his hands seemed to be beating gently.
"Do you know why I fight so hard?"
The emperor said: "When I needed your help, you all hid. Only then did I realize that family affection in the royal family is unreliable. You are my uncles and my father's younger brother. There are not many people in this world who are more intimate than this kind of care. When I am in a difficult situation, you don't help me. Now I need you to point fingers in front of me?"
"I have never been a saint who will never blame him. On the contrary, I am a vengeful person. What did you say just now? You don't care about it if I don't return to the family tree, how can I reward him? You will not stop me if you care?"
King Ding smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, this is a lot of harm to your feelings."
"I just don't want to be hurt, so there will be so many things!"
The emperor slapped his hands on the table, and the old princes shivered at the same time.
"If I hadn't been thinking about love, could the emperor's uncles sit in front of me and talk to me as an elder?"
The emperor sneered coldly: "The people of Daning are all saying that I am kind and kind. The enemies who have been defeated by me can only kneel down to thank me for my kindness, but am I really be kind? Are Daning's emperors really be kind?"
He looked at King Han: "I either forgot what you planned back then, but I just thought about love."
King Han's face turned pale, and it seemed extremely embarrassing to kneel. He just knelt down as a loyal minister and a loyal clan, so he felt that although he had kneeled, he was strong, but at this moment, he was not strong and he was not straightforward.
The emperor stood up, walked to the kneeling King Han, squatting down, and looked at King Han's eyes at such a close distance: "I will say it clearly today. Only by fighting my life can I have everything I have now. No one is qualified to point fingers in front of me. If anyone else points fingers in front of me until now, I will be defeated. Have I been defeated?"
No one dares to speak.
"As it said, I am not a kind person, and my heart is not that soft."
He raised his hand and sorted out the collar of King Han's wrinkled clothes: "Uncle Emperor, you look like a loyal and loving person in the king's family, but you are not, you have never been. How ugly was you when you fought with your father? Have you forgotten how ugly you were? You can still wear the prince's clothes and enjoy the awe of most people for you, it's just because your surname is Li, and you have to thank your surname Li."
The emperor stood up: "I have demolished the Taimiao Bell. If anyone who threatens me as the elders of the royal family will threaten me, force me, or force me, I can let the Taimiao Bell be destroyed, or let such a person be dismissed from the surname Li. This is my right to sit on the throne. It is right that you strongly opposed me from entering the capital. If you let me sit on the ground, you will never have a chance to stand out."
"Let's go, don't kneel in front of me. No one is a good person. If anyone doesn't understand who, the play will be boring."
The emperor walked towards the desk and said, "They are all surnamed Li. Are the people in the Li family not ruthless in their hearts and tricks or are they the Li family? Back then, the Li family was not just competing with Chu, but the Li family who stood up on hundreds of rebels in the Central Plains. Are you really worthy of being born with this identity?"
The emperor sat down again and opened the memorial.
