Just tell me whether you are willing to bear the reputation of being loyal and good to death?! In the past, Li Yuan would not have cared about this. What kind of loyalty and unfaithfulness, what kind of reputation is not good, as long as you dare to block my way, you don't care.
If you threaten to die, Li Yuan won't care even if you hang yourself with your whole family.
It's different now. Li Yuan has a higher status and has become the number one person in the world. Everything he does is watched by the people in the world. Every move he makes will affect the way people in the world view him, so he has to cherish his feathers.
Li Gang is his confidant, and he is a confidant who holds a very important position in his heart. If Li Gang is forced to death, it will not only destroy the feathers he has managed to build with great effort, but he himself will be heartbroken. He cannot make this determination at all.
Therefore, his tone is not as tough as before, and his attitude is not as relaxed as before.
"You're such a traitor, you just like to go against me!" Li Yuan said viciously. If he didn't have his beloved grandson in his arms, he would have shouted furiously.
Before Li Yuanji could speak, Li Yuan said angrily, "Then tell me, if you don't let me lead the army, who are you going to use to control Li Jing? As far as I know, there is no one among the people you have chosen this time.
One of them is one of our own!" After hearing Li Yuan's words, Li Yuanji understood why Li Yuan suddenly proposed to conquer personally.
In the final analysis, Li Yuan could not trust others and was afraid that others would be disadvantageous to the Li family if they took over the military power. This was in line with Li Yuan's usual nepotism.
As a person who has experienced troubled times and made a fortune in troubled times, I am used to intrigues and intrigues. I am also used to seeing one person rebel against one thing today and another person against that tomorrow. I am wary of others and cannot trust outsiders. I only trust myself.
People are also reasonable.
If it weren't for the fact that there were only five members of the Li family, and it was impossible for him to build a business with just five people, he probably wouldn't even be able to trust his brothers Li Shentong and Li Shenfu, as well as his nephews Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong.
After all, he had rebelled against his cousin. His cousin's mother, his aunt Dugu, treated him like her own son and even went so far as to quarrel with Yang Jian in order to allow him to further his studies in the palace with Yang Guang and others.
He was embarrassed and forced Yang Jian to dare not return to the palace (Yang Jian was afraid of guilt and was forced to run away from home. This is widely spread and is not apocryphal).
People have done this for him, but he still created their son. How can he trust those cousins and nephews when his own cousin rebels?
This is a character given to him by his experience. You may not agree with it, but you must admit its existence.
"Why do you want to control Li Jing? Why don't you give Li Jing enough trust?" Li Yuanji asked back. Li Yuan was suddenly angry. He didn't care that his beloved grandson was still in his arms, and shouted indignantly, "That's what your cousin Yang Guang thought at the beginning."
Yes, so he died and I succeeded him!" This sounds a bit unreasonable, but it is the fact and there is no way to refute it.
Li Yuanji had to change his perspective to convince Li Yuan,
"Then who does father think can surpass Li Jing and become the commander-in-chief of the conquest of the Turks?" Li Yuan was about to speak subconsciously, but he hesitated when the words came to his lips.
Who should we choose? Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin? If those two traitors are released, then he will have no peace in the future, and the same will happen to the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shentong, Li Shenfu? Li Shentong is capable enough and can suppress the situation, but the problem is that Li Shentong is now the number one person in the clan. If he succeeds in destroying the country again, will he be granted a title or reward?
reward?
If you want to give a reward, what kind of reward should you give? Make him a prince? How can he not be dissatisfied? If he makes this move, how can the other princes be able to endure it?
After one or two of them have the treatment that only his son and direct line can have, after three or two generations, will the direct line still be able to stand?
Li Shenfu could suppress the situation, but he was not strong enough. If the Tang Dynasty's war against the Turks failed due to his fault, the Tang Dynasty would suffer great losses.
Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong? The former, like Li Shentong, has no title and no reward. The latter is not only not capable enough, but also unable to control the situation.
With the wisdom of Li Jing and Li Shiji, the latter will be played around by them. As for the others, they are not as good as these few.
"Let your third sister go!" After hesitating for a long time, Li Yuan suddenly spoke and gave an unexpected candidate.
Li Yuanji didn't know what to say at once. Nepotism is okay, but you can't bully your daughter just because you see her being easy to bully, right?
"Father, didn't the person who delivered the message to you tell you that I am going to supervise the battle myself?" In order to prevent Li Yuan from saying any more speechless words, Li Yuanji simply took out a decisive blow.
If he sent others to control Li Jing, how about he go to the battlefield and control Li Jing himself? He was not worried that Li Jing would have different intentions and cause rebellion in the Tang Dynasty.
He simply didn't want to miss this battle that would go down in history. Even if he couldn't go to the battlefield, he still wanted to see it with his own eyes.
Of course, he also wanted to avoid the ensuing war between the aristocratic families and avoid one or two related people coming to ask for help or asking him to mediate.
This was planned by him. Although things have developed now and have greatly deviated from his original plan, the final result is still what he wanted. How could he stay in Chang'an City and be forced to do so?
Are you trying to ruin this?
Although with his current status, no one can force him to be ruthless as long as he is ruthless, but the problem is that facing some people, he cannot be ruthless.
For example, take Yang Miaoyan, who has been sleeping with him for many years and gave birth to a son and a daughter. If during the subsequent family war, the Yang family was in danger of being exterminated, and Yang Miaoyan cried and begged to come to the door, kneeling on the ground and begging him for help, he would
It's hard to say no.
He may not be bound by the clan-oriented rules of this era, but that doesn't mean Yang Miaoyan won't either.
Although Yang suffered a loss at the moment, it was due to greed and the loss was obtained from others. There was no big loss or big danger, so Yang Miaoyan could turn a blind eye.
But if the Yang family suffers a big loss, its original interests are damaged, or even the family is annihilated, how can Yang Miaoyan remain indifferent?
So in order to avoid one or two people coming to the door and begging him to personally take action to destroy his own plan, he had better hide out.
Li Yuan didn't know that there was a deep meaning hidden in his words, but just hearing the clear meaning made him furious.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier if you were going to supervise the battle in person?! Are you kidding me?!" Li Chengde was frightened by Li Yuan's furious shouts. He held his mouth shut and started to cry, with tears streaming down his face.
Scroll, but Li Yuan remained unmoved, and even asked his son for an explanation. This shows that Li Yuan was really angry.
Li Yuanji stepped forward and rescued Li Chengde from Li Yuan's hands. After handing it over to the female officer waiting on the side, he joked, "You are angry because you are angry. Don't scare your grandson. This is his own son." Li Yuan.
Only then did he react, glared at his son angrily, and went to snatch his grandson from the female officer's hands.
The female official was like a puppet, standing there and letting Li Yuan take it from her. In this kind of matter, she was not qualified to have her own opinion, and she didn't even have the power to give her opinion. She could only be at the mercy of others.
Not only that, the female officer was actually a little afraid of Li Yuan, because Li Yuan was not merciless in killing palace people, and he killed one palace at a time.
Among those who worked in the palace, except for Liu Jun and others who barely managed to get on the stage, there was really no one who was not afraid of Li Yuan.
After Li Yuan took back his beloved grandson with the cautious expression of the female officer, while coaxing his beloved grandson, he blew his beard and stared at Li Yuanji and said, "You are a traitor! My good grandson is still good!" Li Yuanji couldn't help rolling his eyes.
.
Are you talking nonsense? He can't take care of himself at this age. It would be strange if he doesn't behave!
"After you get out, who are you going to let supervise the country?" After venting his anger, Li Yuan got down to business.
Generally speaking, when the emperor leads a personal expedition, he will let the prince supervise the country, and one of the prime ministers and martial arts elders will assist in the administration.
But Li Yuanji was not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he would not agree to let Li Jiancheng come out to supervise the country. As for letting Li Chengde supervise the country, he could supervise a whole country even if he was not big enough.
Therefore, there is a question of who will supervise the country. During the Tang Tu Qingzhou Battle, Li Yuanji asked Li Gang, Pei Ju, Xiao Yu, and Chen Shuda to supervise the country. Li Xiuning led the army to guard Chang'an, and Li Yuan secretly watched.
Now listening to Li Yuan's intention, Li Yuan is not ready to take care of it, or he has other ideas. So someone must be selected to supervise the country?
Li Yuanji asked, "Isn't it good to let Li Gang, Pei Ju, Xiao Yu, and Chen Shuda supervise the country before, and let my third sister lead the army to guard Chang'an?" The implication is that this time we can follow the example of last time.
But Li Yuan was obviously dissatisfied with this arrangement, and glared and said, "Don't forget, last time you asked them to supervise the country, and something went wrong in the end, it was me who helped to sort it out!" Li Yuanji couldn't help but said, "Last time, there was a reason.
..." Li Yuan didn't wait for Li Yuanji to finish his words and snorted heavily, "How can power be left aside?!" Li Yuanji instantly understood that this was the main reason why Li Yuan did not agree to let Sanzai supervise the country.
But he always felt that Li Yuan had other purposes. After all, last time he asked Sanzai to supervise the country
