And seeing that he had returned to his usual demeanor, the smile on Li Chengqian's face grew stronger.
The Tang Dynasty is currently in a critical stage of drought.
Du Ruhui left first.
Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Li Xiaogong, etc. are also very senior.
Li Daozong, Changsun Wuji, Li Ji, and others are still in their prime.
But it will only take about ten years at most before he will withdraw from the political stage.
And if you want the world to be stable in the future, you must make preparations before they grow old.
This must be true whether it is a team of military commanders or a ranks of civil servants.
And Li Chongyi was the first cornerstone that Li Chengqian laid for the future of the Tang Dynasty.
Waiting to come back from Hejian Palace.
Li Chengqian ducked into the Manna Palace.
After meeting Li Shimin, he went straight to the point and told Li Shimin everything he had just promised to Li Chongyi.
"Father!"
"Chongyi is the one you watched growing up."
"His method of running the army was taught by Uncle Cheng."
"His strategies for arranging troops and formations also come from the Emperor's lineage."
"My son feels that he is the perfect candidate for the future navy general."
Li Chengqian rubbed his hands and laughed dryly: "Besides, I have already boasted. If my father rejects me, I will lose all face..."
"Ah."
Li Shimin sneered.
"How many generals did our Tang Dynasty have? Do you still remember them?"
"Your uncle Chai Shao, your uncle Cheng, your uncle Yuchi, your uncle Qin, and your uncle Xue."
"There are only five generals in our Tang Dynasty. Even your uncle Li Daozong and your master Li Ji haven't received titles yet."
"You kid, now you want the entire junior generation to come out and make him a general and command the entire navy."
Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Do you know how big a deal this is? The most ridiculous thing is that you actually dare to say anything disrespectful to me?"
"Li Chengqian!"
< br> "Now I have every reason to suspect that you deserve a beating."
Li Shimin stood up, looked at Li Chengqian condescendingly and said, "You might as well tell yourself whether you want to be punished or whether you are going to let me go on the field with my bare hands?"
"..."
The corners of Li Chengqian's mouth twitched and he slowly took a step back.
"Father."
"My son is so old, he really can no longer take advantage of his father."
"Besides, isn't promoting officials also the right you give to your subjects?"
Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin eagerly and said: "Of course, if the father does not allow my son to be promoted, my son has no objection."
"But from this point of view, even if my son and minister succeeds to the throne in the future."
"Father, I'm afraid it's indispensable to be there to help and give guidance."
"Rather than letting my father work so hard, it would be better for my son to study for a few more years."
Li Chengqian bowed to Li Shimin and said: "So, please ask your father to take back his throne, and don't let your son succeed to the throne directly after the New Year."
Hear this.
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly widened.
Is this guy threatening himself?
If you don't listen to him, you won't be able to retire well, right?
"Of course, father, don't worry. You can go out to play with your mother."
Li Chengqian said quietly: "Brother Ke will definitely help you supervise the country."
"Ke'er? Why aren't you in charge of the country?"
Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and looked straight at Li Chengqian.
"oops."
"My son, isn't he injured?"
Li Chengqian pretended to cough twice in pain and said: "It seems that my son has to go back and rest for a while. He probably won't be able to make it back in two or three years."
"So for the time being, let me let my brother go to supervise the country instead of my son."
As soon as this statement came out.
Li Shimin was so angry that his beard stood straight.
"Do you think that since the crown prince position is given to you, you can do whatever you want?"
Li Shimin pointed at Li Chengqian and said, "Believe it or not, I will issue an order to destroy you right now!"
Li Chengqian's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Is it true? Are you really going to issue an order to depose my son? I will help my father to study ink."
Said.
He really jumped towards Li Shimin.
However, people haven't reached Li Shimin's side yet.
Li Shimin kicked him over.
Li Chengqian twisted his waist and dodged very cleverly.
"Father."
"I'm helping you grind ink, why are you kicking me?"
"What did you say you were doing?"
"Your father has worked hard for so many years to plan and lay out for you."
"Is this how you treat your father?"
Li Shimin is very angry and sad now.
He felt that his sincerity was completely fed to the dog.
In order for Li Chengqian to ascend to the throne of God, only he himself knows how much hard work he has put in during this period.
But this guy just wants to do his job well.
He even ran up to him and threatened him with this matter.
This is so cute.
If you don't give him a good beating, you will be sorry for the conscience of heaven and earth!
Li Shimin glanced around, and finally locked his eyes on the broom standing next to him.
He picked up the broom and patted it towards Li Chengqian: "You bastard, if I don't beat you to death today, I will take your surname!"
"Father!"
"You are excited."
"Aren't you the one who gave birth to my bastard son?"
Li Chengqian stepped back and said, "Besides, both of our surnames are Li!"
Say this.
Li Shimin only felt that his hypotension would be cured.
"Stop!"
"Today, I just want you to feel it. How does it hurt? love you."
"Don't run!"
Li Shimin held a broom and killed with all his might.
Li Chengqian trotted all the way in front, avoiding Li Shimin's attacks every time.
And Li Shimin has been the emperor for too long, and his body is no longer as good as when he was young.
After chasing for a few laps, Li Shimin couldn't bear it anymore. He stopped, held his knees, and breathed heavily.
"Father."
"Why do you need to embarrass yourself?"
"You are no better than you were then, and you can't catch up with me now."
Li Chengqian said with a smile: "If I tire you out, my mother will scold you."
"You still have the nerve to mention your mother?"
Li Shimin pointed at Li Chengqian and said angrily: "If your mother knows what happened today, without me taking action, your mother will have to beat you up with her own hands!"
"Just hit him."
"Isn't it natural for a mother to beat her son?"
Li Chengqian sat on the steps, looked at the palace city in front of him, and said quietly: "How about you calm down and have a calm chat with me?"
"snort."
Li Shimin snorted coldly, threw away his broom and came to Li Chengqian.
"I don't want to hit you."
"Isn't this what you've been forcing me to do time and time again?"
Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly: "That's right, I forced you to do so."
"But Father, you should be able to realize something from what happened just now, right?"
"Now you can no longer do what you did when you were a child, where you would just press your son to the ground and beat him if you asked him to beat him."
"The Tang Dynasty is actually just like my father, many things are quietly changing."
Li Shimin's eyes were dark and he didn't speak.
"The Tang Dynasty today."
"The Tang Dynasty is no longer the same as it was ten years ago..."
Li Chengqian held his chin and said: "As for the position of Navy General, if Li Chongyi cannot hold it, no one in the world can hold it."
