Liu De's greatest advantage is undoubtedly that he personally experienced his father. During the entire reign of Emperor Liu Qi, he clearly knew all the edicts and policies issued by him under all circumstances.
"Judging from my past life experience, my imperial father is a man with a strong personality..." Liu De thought about all the things he had experienced: "And he is the kind who will never look back until he hits Nanshan!"
To put it simply, as long as a policy is decided, as long as the policy is not at the end of its rope and irreversible.
Then, he will not be influenced by other people and push forward resolutely.
The current policy of cutting down the vassal vassal that Chao Cuo is instigating is an obvious example.
Especially the current Han Ding in Fenxiang has given him enough confidence and popularity.
This gives him enough trump cards to deal with any changes.
Well, judging from his personality and usual behavior...
"He should be leaning towards Chao Cuo!" Liu De said to himself in his heart.
Think about the past life, Chao Cuo first punished Donghai County of Chu State, and then immediately cut off the Yuzhang and Kuaiji counties of Wu State.
The two countries of Wu and Chu had only six counties in total, and half of them were cut off at once. Especially the state of Wu, two-thirds of its territory was cut off at once.
Extrapolating from the results, Liu De easily grasped his father's current psychology.
Therefore, Liu De kowtowed and said: "In my opinion, the king of Huainan, Liu An, is treasonous and unethical. Just as Zhao Yu, the imperial eunuch, said, the facts are clear, and we should overturn his methods!"
Emperor Liu Qi's inner smile all faded away in an instant.
"How can it be!"
"It must be an accident!"
"I was twenty-five years old before I could guess the general idea of the late emperor. Even so, I was often blamed by the late emperor..."
"Is it a trap? It must be a trap!"
"But. If he was deceived..." Emperor Liu Qi's mind turned around: "How could he be inclined to Chao Cuo..."
Liu De and Chao Cuo have never been close, but Yuan Ang is very close to Liu De.
From this perspective, it doesn't look like I was fooled at all.
In this case, it would be terrible...
Even for father and son, the feeling of having someone know the inside story and seeing the trump card made Emperor Liu Qi very unhappy.
This is the emperor's contradiction.
On the one hand, they are often extremely demanding when it comes to their heirs. Their requirements are strict.
On the other hand, when heirs perform too well, they will become suspicious. All kinds of suspicions and concerns will arise.
When Liu De saw his father's expression, he immediately shouted in his heart that it was bad!
All kinds of bloody events in the royal family of Li Tang Dynasty immediately came to Liu De's mind.
Liu De thought for a moment, kowtowed and said: "Father, my sons and ministers think that Huainan King Zhang Shi has made great contributions and should be rewarded. I hope that Father will not hesitate to commend him..."
When Emperor Liu Qi heard this, a stone fell to his heart.
"Let me tell you, how could this kid guess what I was thinking..." Emperor Liu Qi thought in his heart: "It turns out that he is attracted to Zhang Shizhi!"
Liu Qi did not have a good impression of Zhang Shizhi.
As a human being, I would not have a good impression of a guy who would block me at home every now and then to watch.
Admittedly, it was just a show arranged by the late emperor.
But Zhang Shizhi is too courageous!
It's just once or twice, every three to five. No matter what, he comes to find fault with the prince's uterus. This made Liu Qi deeply believe that the other party had a great opinion of him.
Therefore, as soon as he ascended the throne, he first liquidated Deng Tong, and then Zhang Shizhi.
However, Zhang Shizhi was smarter. He came to kowtow and apologize as soon as he saw something was wrong. In addition, Huang Sheng, Queen Mother Dou's lucky minister, was interceding on the side, so he was not liquidated and just rushed to Huainan Kingdom to become the prime minister.
But putting aside these personal grievances, from a conscience point of view, Zhang Shizhi is still a good minister, loyal, capable, and popular.
Maybe he's suitable to be the prince's tutor?
And it can also let the world see my broad mind...
Emperor Liu Qi was thinking about it in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was very good.
Of course, it would definitely not work to reveal your true feelings in front of your son like this.
An enigmatic image must be maintained.
"I understand..." Emperor Liu Qi stood up and said to Liu De: "You go down first and ask Chao Cuo and Yuan Ang to come see me!"
"No!" Liu De kowtowed.
Then he slowly exited dad's imperial tent.
After leaving the tent, Liu De found that his back was completely wet with sweat.
Playing tricks with the emperor is actually no different from walking a tightrope.
Once you make the wrong bet, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Especially the emperors of the Liu family, each one is extremely sensitive.
Liu De doesn't have a mother to protect him. If he's not careful, he will fall off the wire...
I passed the test this time, but what about next time?
"I must also learn to hide my clumsiness..." Liu De thought in his heart: "You can't walk a tightrope like this every time. Being wise or foolish may not be the wrong way..."
After this lesson, Liu De understood that sometimes he should be a little bit stupid, because if he is too smart, no one will love him!
Liu De thought about his father again. Back then, Zhang Shizhi had been trying to improve his reputation, and he was blocked at the palace gate seven or eight times.
It is said that a Saint will never fall to the same move more than three times.
His father was caught seven or eight times by Zhang Shizhi by blocking the door.
Could it be that his father is too stupid to find another way?
"It seems that I still have a lot to learn..." The closer to the peak of power, the more sinister Liu De could feel.
"If you want to be superior to tens of thousands of people, you must use any means and have a thick face and a dark heart. These are necessary attributes... My talent points will be tilted towards this aspect in the future..." Liu De said to himself in his heart.
In fact, Liu De also realized that with his status and status at this level, it was time to lie dormant and hide his weakness.
If something happens, let your subordinates go to charge into battle.
He can hide behind his back and control everything remotely.
Just like his father used to be.
As for himself, it's time to pick up his books and be a good student every day.
With this in mind, Liu De pushed open the door of the court tent, returned to his seat, sat down quietly, bowed his hands in salute to the ministers, and said very calmly: "Please wait for a long time, ministers."
It’s time…”
He looked at Chao Cuo: "Internal history, my father invites you to go to the imperial court to present a memorial!"
Then, he looked at Yuan Ang and said, "Your Majesty, please come with us..."
"No!" Chao Cuo and Yuan An came out to pay homage.
But they both also had doubts in their hearts.
"Your Highness seems to have changed a lot since he returned from the interview with the Holy Spirit..." Yuan Ang looked at Liu De. He was a person with strong observation skills. He was particularly concerned about a person's mental state, facial expressions, and speaking speed.
He could clearly detect that some changes seemed to be appearing in Liu De.
Now, Liu De, who was sitting on his knees as calmly as a piece of wood with no emotions at all, was very much like the state he was in when the late emperor had just ascended the throne and the power was in the hands of the generals.
At that time, the late emperor, just like Liu De now, seemed not to care about anything and not take anything to heart.
"Progress... is so fast..." Yuan An sighed in his heart: "At the age of sixteen, he was already in the shape of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen at the age of thirty..." (To be continued...)
ps: Well, let me report to you the amount of updates this week.
This week, My Abandoned House has updated a total of 20 chapters so far, plus the chapter that is waiting for next, it is 21 chapters. I have just completed two updates a day to guarantee and one update to pay off the debt. It is really a heinous crime~~~~~~~
Calculating this way, I owe roughly 500 votes this week plus one update, which is about 6 chapters.
A monthly ticket of 50 will add 2 chapters, and a reward of 10,000 will add 1 chapter, for a total of 9 chapters.
I guess I can pay it off next week~ Because I can pay off last month’s debt from next week to Wednesday~
Basically, I update 3-4 times a day on average, which is stress-free for me.
As for the lack of updates in the past two days, well, I blame Togashi, the old thief. I basically watch The Hunter at night when I go to bed. I usually see 3 or 4 points when I watch it. Hey~ I didn’t like the style of the painting before, so I didn’t watch it. Now
I'm addicted. I've already watched 101 and there are 44 episodes left. Then I have to wait for the next update. Will the old thief Togashi fill this deep hole?
