After listening to the content of this letter, Li Shimin couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"This guy is really not the young boy he used to be."
"If you talk about other things, just talking about this layout and intelligence, I'm afraid even I can't compare with them."
Li Shimin sighed: "He is really getting more and more powerful..."
"but."
Li Shimin narrowed his eyes again and said, "I just don't understand why he never said this in front of me, but told you everything?"
Is there anything you can do without just saying no to yourself?
Why always ask them to do it for you?
To be honest, Li Shimin was a little jealous and a little angry.
This kid doesn’t think of himself as his biological father…
After hearing this, Fang Xuanling grinned: "Your Majesty, do you want to hear the truth?"
"certainly."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "What should I do if I hear lies?"
"Then please forgive me, Your Majesty. I'm afraid I'm going to say something that will offend Your Majesty."
"The reason why he asked us to do the job instead of His Highness is for one reason. His Highness the Crown Prince is too smart."
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but sigh: "Since ancient times, the prince and the king seem to be connected as one, advancing and retreating together, but in fact there are also conflicts of rights."
"If the prince becomes more powerful, the authority in the king's hands will inevitably be eclipsed."
"If the king restricts the prince too much, it will naturally cause the prince to rebel. If he fails, the prince and the king will fight."
Hearing this, Li Shimin sneered.
He said: "But has he forgotten that we are father and son, and my position will belong to him sooner or later?"
"Your Majesty, how many kings and princes since ancient times are not father and son?"
Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "But how many people have you seen who can really get along with each other in harmony?"
Hearing these words, Li Shimin's body suddenly shook.
Obviously, these words really touched his nerves.
But because there is a house, Xuanling is in advance Even though he was vaccinated, it didn't make him angry.
Li Shimin pursed his lips and said, "But I am different from those emperors, doesn't he know?"
"Of course he knows."
"But the more we know about it, the more His Highness will have to avoid it."
"Your Majesty is an emperor with great ambitions. Under your leadership, the Tang Dynasty is getting better and better."
"As for the prince's assistance, we all see it and know that he is the best successor among your sons."
"But it's okay for us old people. After all, we have been following His Majesty for many years, whether we are assisting His Majesty or the Crown Prince."
“But what about the newcomers who want to seize power?”
Fang Xuanling looked directly at Li Shimin and said, "Tell me, will they choose the prince or you?"
Because of the existence of veterans like Fang Xuanling, no matter how good the newcomers are, if they don't step down, those newcomers will never get ahead.
But as an emperor and a courtier, as long as Li Chengqian ascends the throne, it means the beginning of a new era.
They will eventually have the opportunity to reach the top and become extremely popular.
Therefore, some things are not a matter of whether he wants to do them, but whether there is someone behind him forcing him to do them.
Hearing these words, Li Shimin was also shocked.
After all, he had also walked this road before, so how could he not know the secret behind it?
At that moment, he looked directly at Fang Xuanling and said, "I seem to understand what you mean."
"That's not what I meant."
"But the fact..."
Fang Xuanling sighed softly and said: "These things are just before our eyes."
"The Crown Prince cannot and does not want to fight at the moment. He simply wants to assist His Majesty in becoming the best king in the world."
"Become a great contributor to the Han Dynasty, be famous in history, and
Lord Qin stands side by side."
Fang Xuanling cupped her hands towards Li Shimin and said, "And this is not just the idea of His Royal Highness, but also the idea of all of us."
"So, Your Majesty."
"The prince has already taken care of the situation, so you can't slack off."
Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled.
"Talking back and forth..."
He looked directly at Fang Xuanling and said: "You old guy, this last sentence is your original intention of talking to me so much today, right?"
How smart is Li Shimin???
After hearing this, he already knew the purpose of Fang Xuanling telling him so much.
"yes."
Fang Xuanling admitted happily.
He said directly: "I do have this purpose."
"But at the same time, I really do it for His Majesty's benefit."
"It's really to enable His Majesty to reach that location as soon as possible."
"Because only in this way will our historical status be improved."
Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile: "So Your Majesty, you will have to work hard next."
"Okay, okay."
"When have I not worked hard?"
Li Shimin rolled his eyes and said: "But to say the least, I did slack off a lot some time ago. I will definitely cheer up in the future."
"If your Majesty can really do this."
"That is truly a blessing to the world and to the people."
Fang Xuanling bowed straight to Li Shimin again and said: "I am here to thank Your Majesty for the sake of the people of the world..."
Hearing this, Li Shimin waved his hands indiscriminately and said: "Gungungun, I get annoyed when I see you, an old dog."
Fang Xuanling chuckled, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please leave."
After saying that, Fang Xuanling walked away.
Only Li Shimin and Eunuch Zhou were left in the main hall.
Li Shimin sighed lightly He said: "Do you think what Lao Fang said was what Qian'er wanted to tell me through his mouth?"
"Some are, some aren't."
Eunuch Zhou said directly: "But I guess that His Highness really doesn't want to fight with His Majesty, nor does he want to fall into that kind of situation with His Majesty."
"That's why I said these words now."
"Moreover, Mr. Fang really wants to assist an eternal wise king and become famous in history."
Hearing this, Li Shimin chuckled lightly.
"Yeah yeah."
Li Shimin put his hands behind his back and said: "In that case, let's continue walking down with him and see what tricks he can do."
Hearing this, Eunuch Zhou chuckled lightly and stepped forward to help Li Shimin's arm.
"To be honest, I also want to see that day."
"If one day you become an eternal emperor, I'm afraid you will be able to honor your ancestors."
Eunuch Zhou said with a smile: "In this history, I'm afraid I can also leave a mark on this old slave."
"You old dog is just like that Fang Xuanling."
Li Shimin laughed and cursed: "They are all a group of people who are just seeking fame..."
"If you are just trying to get fame and reputation, you are just trying to get fame and reputation, and this old slave also accepts it."
"As long as Your Majesty can become the first emperor in the ages."
Eunuch Zhou sighed lightly, and then said: "It's just that, I'm afraid it will be really hard for Your Majesty next time."
"Ten years on the battlefield, ten years in court."
"Twenty years of wind and rain passed by in a blink of an eye."
Li Shimin also raised his head and said: "Time is not forgiving. In the blink of an eye, you and I have gray hair. Time flies so fast."
"Who says it isn't?"
"The scene when His Royal Highness was pinned under the desk and spanked by you is still vivid in my mind."
Eunuch Zhou still smiled and said: "But now His Royal Highness is able to lead troops and horses on the battlefield, and his reputation is so great that it can scare the enemy..."
