Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2603
His Majesty Li Er did not get angry, and still maintained excellent patience, and argued: "This is not due to who said something, but for the father's own judgment. And until now, the father has only treated Yi I have doubts about the matter of storage, and I have not made up my mind to make it easy to store, so I will definitely consider it in many ways and try to make all parties satisfied and accept it."

He always believes that as the emperor of the empire, one must have the nature of the eagle watching the wolf, and forge ahead with tough methods, not the benevolence, righteousness, morality, and good governance of the prince.

People who are good are bullied, horses are ridden by others, a weak or even cowardly person, no matter how capable he is, cannot manage a huge empire well, it will make the courtiers domineering and the people savage, and eventually the imperial power will fall and the center will decline .

King Jin seems to be well-behaved, but in fact he has a deep scheming mind, and his methods are even more aggressive. Such a person is much better than a weak, deceitful, kind-hearted person like the prince. In the end, it fell apart in the hands of the prince.

He patiently explained to his eldest daughter whom he loved and valued a lot. If his foreign ministers saw it, his eyeballs would probably drop from shock. How could this be a wise and courageous emperor?It's no different from those traffickers and pawns in the countryside who dote on their children...

But even though he was so submissive, Princess Changle had made up her mind to offend Yan Zhijian.

Princess Changle straightened her waist, her jade face was cold, and she said in a clear voice: "I dare to ask my father, what is the meaning of taking the title of 'Zhenguan' after you ascended the throne?"

Princess Jinyang interjected: "I know this! The word 'Zhenguan' is taken from "Book of Changes - Xicixia", 'the way of heaven and earth, and those who watch Zhenguan'."

His Majesty Li Er smiled at the little girl approvingly, very satisfied: "Sizi is really smart. Zhen means righteousness; Guan means showing. The meaning of the word 'Zhen Guan' is to show others with righteousness."

Princess Changle pampered her younger sister's bun, then turned to His Majesty Li Er, and asked, "What my daughter wants to ask is, why did Emperor Father choose the word 'Zhenguan' as your year name? "

His Majesty Li Er's face darkened slightly, and he hesitated for a while without answering.

Princess Changle has already asked and answered herself: "Because the father thinks that he is wrong, and he is afraid that the world will criticize him, so he chooses such a year name that is the most upright in the world. His merits can be seen from things. My father is ambitious and wants to tell the world that even if you are not in the right position, you are still the supreme in the world. The achievements you will make in the future can be admired by all people, and they will be astonishing in the past and the present!"

His Majesty Li Er's face was so dark that it was about to drip, but he still tried his best to suppress his anger.

Princess Changle didn't realize it, and the words and sentences were as clear as silver bells: "But you have forgotten, Father, you only remember that 'Zhenguan' is the way of heaven and earth, but you forgot that the way of heaven and earth is not only ancient and unique. Unparalleled feats should be loved by father and son, brothers and brothers! You had no choice but to fight back under the Xuanwu Gate. Do you still want to see the prince brother or child slave repeat your mistakes in the future? Are you stained with your brother's blood?"

Before His Majesty Li Er was furious, Princess Changle turned over and kowtowed, "My daughter is unfilial and disobedient to her father, she deserves death! No matter how the father punishes her, she never complains, she just wants to Let father know that our brothers and sisters love each other and love each other deeply, and we never want to turn brothers and sisters against each other one day, and brothers will fight against each other!"

His Majesty Li Er had blue veins on his forehead, and he was about to jump up with his hands leaning on the floor. He gave this bold girl a lesson, but her thighs sank suddenly, but she was hugged tightly by Princess Jinyang, little princess. Tears were streaming down her face, her pretty face was full of fear, and she hugged his thigh tightly and cried, "Father, don't, don't hit my sister! My sister, my son, my brother, and my young slave will respect you..."

His Majesty Li Er froze there, only feeling that all his anger was wiped out under the little girl's tears.

The scene he saw when he just entered the hall came back to his mind. His daughters were carefree and crazy together, and the sisters were deeply affectionate without any suspicion.But if he really deposes the prince, which will cause the prince to die in the future, can his children still love each other like they are now?

Can there be such purest family affection?

He will come under the Nine Springs, how will he explain to Empress Wende that he buried the family affection of his children and retreated them into a pool of blood?
No one has more power than him, and no one knows the power of power better than him.

Power is the most unsolvable poison in the world. Once you take this medicine, you will have no way to retreat, and your relatives will deny you.

He naturally understood the consequences of "abolishing the elders and establishing the young". The prince who succeeded in line could still be friendly to his brothers and sisters. With the prince's temperament, whether it came from the heart or showed it to the world, he would definitely be kind and honest.

And once the childish slave ascends the throne, even if he has the enthronement edict in his hand, he will still arouse opposition from all over the world, thinking that he "usurped against the throne" and his name is not justified.In this way, in order to stabilize the throne, they can only kill all brothers and sisters who can endanger the imperial power internally, and brutally suppress those opponents externally.

The brotherhood, the love of blood, is vulnerable to the imperial power and collapses at the first touch.

Thinking of the consequences of Yi Chu, His Majesty Li Er hesitated.

He became more and more annoyed at the bottom of his heart. Why did he have firmly established the crown prince's position as the crown prince, and because he heard the noise of a few rotten scholars, he suddenly became interested in Chu Chu?Obviously already planning to store easily, but why hesitate at this moment?
He has always been arbitrary in his life, even when the Xuanwu Sect changed, he only listened to a few words of persuasion from Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others, and brazenly ordered a desperate counterattack and usurped against him. Hard never had the slightest hesitation.

Why are you hesitant to make a decision now, worrying about gains and losses?

A wave of irritability surged up, and he was firmly restrained. He didn't want to lose his composure in front of his daughter, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my son, why would Father beat you? It's just that this matter must be carefully considered and weighed by Father." Gains and losses are the final decision."

Princess Jinyang wiped away her tears and said oh.

Princess Changle sighed lightly, then paused and said: "My daughter is unfilial, she offends her father, she is willing to be punished."

His Majesty Li Er also sighed, waved his hands and said, "Why is this between father and daughter? It's not about punishing or not punishing. Your starting point is also for the sake of the prince. As a father, you naturally understand. Alright, as a father, I'm going to nine Chenggong, the car has been prepared outside, so let’s go.”

After saying that, he got up and comforted the two daughters, and then walked out of Shujing Palace.

Outside the door, Wang De had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the emperor coming out, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the carriage is ready. When shall we set off?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at the sky, he couldn't get it for a moment, he wanted to see the monk as soon as possible, and asked if the elixir had any side effects, so he walked towards Chengtianmen.

*****
Xiao Yu came out from the imperial palace and parted ways with Li Ji, but did not return home, but ordered the royal to drive to Xuanyangfang near Dongshi, adjacent to Pingkangfang.

The carriage enters the square gate and goes west along the street until it reaches the end and stops in front of a courtyard with two big locust trees in front of the gate.

Xiao Yu got out of the car, the courtyard door was already opened, a servant in green shirt and hat came out to greet him, bowed to salute, and said: "It turns out that the Duke of Song is here, please come in, this servant will go and report to the Patriarch."

Turn back first and notify the owner.

Xiao Yu stepped on the steps in front of the door with his hands behind his back, looked up at the two big locust trees with cloud-like crowns in front of the door, shook his head slightly, and then walked into the door.

After passing the screen wall and bypassing a lotus pond, an old man with white beard and hair and a bloated body hurried out to meet him, and he bowed to the ground from a distance, and said with a laugh: "The old man caught a carp this morning, and I just picked it up." Steam it neatly into the pot, and Song Guogong came to the humble house, it is really a blessing."

Xiao Yu smiled and returned the courtesy: "The delicacy in the world should be offered and shared. Bachelor Xie cherishes it with his broom and hides it. The little old man will act on behalf of the heavens, and you will not be allowed to enjoy it alone!"

The old man stroked his beard and laughed loudly, stepped forward and hand in hand with Xiao Yu, they walked into the hall together.

This old man is a descendant of the Xie family in Chenjun. His name is Xie Yan. He is a scholar of Hongwen Museum. The Great Confucianism.When Wei Wang Li Tai compiled "Tuo Di Zhi" at the beginning, Xie Yan was one of the team members, and he has a brilliant literary talent.

The two sat down, Xie Yan looked at Xiao Yu, smiled and said: "Duke Song came here uninvited, maybe there is nothing good for him?"

Xiao Yu smiled wryly, and cut straight to the point: "If the old man hadn't come today, the person who came to the door would have been Fang Jun, but I don't know if Bachelor Xie can still smile like he is doing now?"

Xie Yan's complexion changed slightly, his eyes flickered, and he had already guessed the purpose of Xiao Yu's visit today.
