Li Zhi could calmly talk to Li Qinzai about the crown prince in person, and Li Qinzai knew deeply that Li Zhi had complete trust in him.
Perhaps Li Zhi did this on purpose, hinting at his trust by talking about the crown prince and dispelling the concerns of Li Qinzai and even the entire Li family.
Sometimes when chatting, you can’t just look at the topic, but also the deep meaning behind the topic.
Li Qinzai understood and thought of Kim Dayeon.
Regardless of whether she was late or not, regardless of whether she could reach Chang'an before Li Hong died of illness, Li Qinzai must let Li Zhi know about the existence of Jin Dayan at this moment.
Otherwise, if Li Hongruo dies of illness in the future and Li Zhi knows that there is a miracle doctor in Goguryeo, but Li Qinzai keeps it secret, it will definitely be an obstacle for their friendship.
"Your Majesty, I would like to recommend someone. She is the goddess doctor who saved the lives of me and my grandfather in Goguryeo. Her name is Jin Dayan. Her medical skills are very outstanding. If your Majesty is trustworthy, I can ride eight hundred miles to bring her back to Chang'an.
Diagnose and treat His Highness the Crown Prince's illness."
Li Zhi was startled and said: "I have heard about this. This goddess doctor is not a simple person. She saved the lives of Mr. Ying and you. She is really kind to our country, the Tang Dynasty..."
Li Qinzai said in a deep voice: "There is nothing to say about her medical skills. Although she is from Goguryeo, her medical ethics are noble. In her eyes, all living beings are equal. She is like a living Bodhisattva. If she can come to Chang'an in time, I dare not guarantee her."
We will definitely be able to save His Highness the Crown Prince, but in the end there is a glimmer of hope."
Li Zhi nodded: "Jing Chu's advice is very good, I accept it. Now I will send the imperial guard to ride eight hundred miles to Goguryeo and invite the goddess doctor to Chang'an."
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other and smiled, but they both smiled bitterly.
In fact, both of them knew that the fastest round trip from Chang'an to Goguryeo would take more than two months. How could Li Hong's illness last more than two months?
It's nothing more than doing your best and obeying destiny. Summoning Jin Dayan to Chang'an is more like an attitude of unwillingness to give up and a sense of ritual to do your best.
Li Zhi paused and couldn't help but said: "About the crown prince..."
Li Qinzai immediately interrupted: "The crown prince is an internal matter of the Tian family. The secrets of the palace cannot be disclosed to foreign ministers. I dare not participate or even listen."
A warm smile appeared on Li Zhi's face: "When I wanted to depose the Queen, Ling Zu Yinggong said the same thing. He said, 'This is your Majesty's family matter, why bother asking outsiders?' I have to say that your ancestors and grandchildren are really of the same blood."
Li Qinzai also smiled and said: "I just know how to measure things. If I rely on His Majesty's favor to point fingers at the affairs of the Tian family, in my opinion, this is seeking death."
"Your Majesty, I will take my disciples back to Ganjing Manor tomorrow and ask them to concentrate on their studies and not care about worldly affairs. Especially those princes and princesses. I will take them away and strictly control them. They will not be allowed to participate in the dispute to establish the crown prince."
Li Zhi smiled happily: "I have no doubt about Jing Chu's loyalty. If all the ministers in the court were like you, I would have much less worry in governing the world."
As he spoke, Li Zhi suddenly looked at him with deep meaning and said in a low voice: "Li Xian is your disciple and my direct prince. It is said that Jing Chu should spare no effort to assist Li Xian in fighting for the position of crown prince. Why did Jing Chu
Give up this great opportunity?"
Li Qinzai smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, many people have asked me this question in the past few days, and my attitude has always been very clear. To be honest with you, even Li Xian had this idea, but I suppressed him.
.”
Li Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Why?"
Li Qinzai sighed: "My father and teacher know best the virtues of my disciples. Your Majesty, Li Xian is your legitimate son. Do you really think he is suitable to be the prince?"
Li Zhi smiled: "Li Xianxiao has many shortcomings, but he is still kind-hearted. If he can be educated for a few years, his temperament may be different, and he will be praised by the government and the public."
Li Qinzai glanced at him and said: "If your Majesty really intended to make Li Xian the crown prince, he would have already let the news out to his ministers. Why would you call Pei King Li Xian to the capital?"
"I feel that my IQ is being rubbed on the ground by His Majesty, so Your Majesty does not need to induce me. To put it bluntly, Li Xian has no chance. It will be very good to be peaceful and peaceful for the rest of my life."
Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "I was speechless by you..."
Then Li Zhi's expression became serious: "Although the prince is seriously ill, he is still the prince of the Tang Dynasty. If he is safe and sound, there is no need to mention the matter of establishing a crown prince. If he has...unexpected reasons, the monarch and his ministers will not discuss the matter of establishing a crown prince again."
Late."
Li Qinzai nodded.
He knew that this was the attitude expressed by Li Zhi, and the implication was that there was no doubt that King Pei Li Xian should be the next crown prince.
…………
After leaving Tai Chi Palace, Li Qinzai immediately felt relaxed.
Whether the Li family is loyal or traitorous is not up to anyone else but the emperor.
Those who plan to make a fuss about deserting don't actually know that they are already in danger.
As long as you dare to send the memorial, it is equivalent to putting a mark in Li Zhi's heart. Li Zhi will not have a good impression of this kind of person who slanders and suppresses heroes and makes people angry in front of the emperor.
Since ancient times, no matter whether it is a foolish king or a wise master, they are of course afraid that their ministers' high achievements will shock the master, but they also have to divide people.
From the year of Zhenguan to the present day, there have been many famous generals in the Tang Dynasty, and there are many generals who have contributed to the destruction of the country. Why are they all safe and sound?
The Tang Dynasty was different from other dynasties. The biggest difference was the mind of the monarch.
As long as you have performed meritorious service, I will treat you well. No matter what others say, it is useless. If the generals are destined to die after the country is destroyed, who will dare to sacrifice their lives for the Emperor of Tang Dynasty in the future?
Besides, the person who made the meritorious service was Li Ji. Everyone in the world knew that Li Ji was old. This was the last battle in his life and it ended perfectly.
After the end, Li Ji was just an old man in his twilight years. Who would be suspicious of an old man who would retire immediately after making great achievements?
Of course Li Zhi was not a perfect monarch, but he would never doubt Li Ji or the entire Li family.
The performance of Li Ji and Li Qinzai over the years can explain everything.
Most of the relationships between emperors and ministers in the early Tang Dynasty started well and ended well, unless the ministers sought their own death, such as Hou Junji or Changsun Wuji.
After walking out of the gate of Tai Chi Palace, Li Qinzai regained his paralyzed appearance again, and was carried onto the carriage by his subordinates.
Anyway, I don’t know why, but Li Qinzai always feels that the appearance of being paralyzed and holding the pearl of wisdom is very cool and looks very wise.
Moreover, there are people waiting on you when you walk, sit or lie down, which is also in line with Li Qinzai's salty fish mentality.
This salted fish has become more and more excessive, and it doesn't even bother to turn over on its own.
The palace gate is not far from Li's house, both on Zhuque Street. In theory, Li Qinzai and Li Zhi are neighbors.
The carriage was swaying, and Li Qinzai sat in the carriage with his eyes closed and meditative.
Suddenly he felt the carriage stop, and Li Qinzai still didn't open his eyes.
Zhuque Street is the main road in Chang'an. In this huge city with a population of over one million, traffic jams are common.
However, not long after, Feng Su outside the carriage said: "Fifth Young Master, someone is blocking the way."
Li Qinzai said calmly: "Then let him pass first. It doesn't matter if we wait."
Feng Su said in a deep voice: "Fifth Young Master, the carriage on the other side deliberately blocked us."
