After leaving the Tai Chi Hall, Li Po strolled towards the harem.
"Wei Xuancheng will be transferred to another position next year. You have been serving as a regular attendant for several years. Do you have any plans?"
Yan Shigu, who was accompanying Li Po, paused after hearing this, "I don't have many merits. I have been serving His Majesty for several years, and my articles are acceptable..."
Li Po interrupted him with a smile, "You don't have to be so self-effacing. You are knowledgeable, you never fail to answer the questions correctly, and you are also a very good person. I have never heard a few words about people's shortcomings from your mouth.
Being cautious in dealing with others is also called caution, otherwise I would not have chosen you to teach the prince.
But I think you should learn from Wei Xuancheng and save this place. It sounds nice, but in fact you still can't escape the words of the emperor's attendants. Talented people should not waste their time here. You are still young, don't do it to yourself.
So old-fashioned and old-fashioned.”
Yan Shigu bowed gratefully and said: "I have already pledged my life to the country. Your Majesty has an order, and I will all be happy to do so."
Li Po smiled and nodded, "Li Yuan will leave the palace in two years. Please help me choose someone to help me. Come to the newspaper and let me know."
Yan Shigu was shocked and could no longer care about his own future. He asked tentatively: "Does Your Majesty want to establish a crown prince or..."
Li Po said: "Li Yuan's character has not yet been determined, so it is too early to occupy the position in the East Palace..."
Having said this, he looked at Yan Shigucai and continued: "With Brother Yang Yong as a guide, I have to be more careful. You don't need to say anything about this matter. I have my own plan."
Hearing Yang Yong's name, Yan Shigu felt a chill in his heart. He just made a promise and did not dare to say anything more.
During the reigns of Emperor Kaihuang and Renshou of the former Sui Dynasty, the dispute over the crown prince was very fierce, which indeed deserves vigilance. Li Yuan's sons were not given for free, and they were almost as fierce as enemies.
It can be said that the atmosphere is extremely bad, and there are a lot of jokes. In the eyes of people like Yan Shigu, regardless of the Yang Yong brothers, Li Jiancheng, and Li Shimin brothers, even if someone becomes the emperor, his reputation will not be the same in the end.
Will suffer great damage.
Take Yang Guang, for example. During those years when he competed with his elder brother for position, he did have the last laugh, but it made the Kansai nobles extremely disgusted.
Just like when Yang Guang led his army to attack Nanchen, some people said that he had coveted the beauty of Zhang Lihua, the concubine of Empress Chen, and wanted Gao Xi to send Zhang Lihua to him to admire her.
It was Gao Xi who refused to obey the orders of the rebels and insisted on executing Zhang Lihua and others, and put an end to Yang Guang's idea.
These rumors said that there were noses and eyes, but in fact there was not much basis for it. However, in the Sui Shu that was revised recently, all these were recorded in the Chronicles of Emperor Yang, which completely sealed the coffin.
But those who are more attentive know that this matter is worth pondering. Who is Gao Xi? He is the father-in-law and teacher of Prince Yang Yong. Yang Guang would not let Gao Xi send Zhang Lihua here no matter how unreasonable he was, right?
Even if Yang Guang was dazzled by beauty, how could the people around him not come to dissuade him? Therefore, most of this incident was caused by rumors spread by the prince's party at that time, but in the end, it still left a solid message for Yang Guang.
Stigma.
This is the beginning and end of the battle for the throne. Thinking about those stories will make people feel chills on their backs.
Not to mention Li Yuan's sons, Yan Shigu watched as they got into trouble before the princes were calmed down. He rushed into his brother's home, beat and even killed his brothers' subordinates. They were brutal and ferocious.
Everywhere Yang Yong brothers have to fight for it.
Today is the reign of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor has two sons. Although they are still young, who the hell knows if they will be like those people when they grow up...
Well, there is no need to think about it. The throne is in front, who dares to take a step back?
Thinking of this, Yan Shigu felt heavy in his heart. He sincerely hoped that the royal family would be kind to father and son, and respectful to brothers and sisters in the future. At least it would not involve foreign ministers like them.
………………
Li Po knew in his heart that if any of the little beasts dared to show their teeth and claws in front of him in the future, he would push them into the mud and reflect.
If anyone dares to be like Yang Guang and isolate himself from the inside and outside when he is dying, he can arrange for Ma Dai to kill the little beast in advance...
Of course, he is not God, and he can't predict what will happen in the future. How to choose his successor is enough to give him a headache.
But now he still prefers to be the eldest son. As long as Li Yuan doesn't play too fast, he will not let anyone shake his status as the eldest son.
Brothers Yang Yong and brothers Li Shimin have learned too many lessons...
………………
Li Po did not return to Ganlu Hall, but went straight to the harem.
The weather had reached the coldest time of the year, and Li Po did not hold back. After letting Yan Shigu and others go, he got into the royal chariot and went to Ashina Rongzhen's residence in a loud voice.
Outside the main hall of Guizhen Hall, the four-year-old Li Zhen was practicing martial arts with a wooden stick. Next to her, her mother was standing with a bigger and thicker stick. Once Li Zhen was lazy and slippery, Ashina could easily
It only takes a moment to go up.
The palace people gathered around from a distance, shivering either from cold or fear. Every time Li Zhen touched him, they shivered.
Li Po heard Li Zhen's screams in the distance and thought to himself that this was really his own mother. She would not let the child rest even in the middle of winter. It seemed that Li Zhen was going to have a good year.
Li Zhen was obviously used to being abused by his mother. He screamed loudly but never cried. When he saw his father's chariot in the distance, he threw the wooden stick and ran towards his father. At this moment, she
The speed is definitely much faster than that of a rabbit running for its life.
Li Po quickly jumped off the chariot, opened his arms and picked up his daughter who was running towards her. He looked at her and wiped her cold snot with the skirt of his daughter's clothes.
"Why do you still come out to practice martial arts in such a cold weather? What else did you do to make her unhappy?"
Li Zhen sniffed and said in a clear voice: "Master, I didn't do anything. I just... accidentally knocked over the brazier in the palace and burned some things."
Li Po was also happy, it wasn't a big deal, the little cubs were all jumping around, which made people happy just to see them.
Ashnarong came over and grabbed the little thing in his hand. He ignored his daughter's protests and confidently took her place.
"Why do you have time to come here today? Didn't political affairs keep you?"
Li Po laughed, put his arm around her waist and walked into the Guizhen Hall, "Li Zhen is still young. You can beat her with such a big wooden stick. You really can do it."
Li Zhen struggled to get off the ground, but couldn't get away. He yelled, "That's right, that stick is too big and thick...it hurts me so much when it hits me."
Li had a black line in his head, these words were really unpleasant... He also wanted to give his daughter a few hard blows.
Ashina Rongzhen has always said what her husband says, "Then I'll switch to something smaller in the future. I heard rattan is good."
These words immediately frightened Li Zhen so much that he didn't dare to move. He was weighing in his mind which one would hurt more, a cane or a wooden stick. Well, I'll go find my brother later and try hitting him twice.
