Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2626 Royal Infighting
The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat dignified.

Princess Gao Yang looked at her elder brother and then at her husband, both of them looked gloomy, she got up and said: "You guys talk first, I'll let the cook fix the table, Erlang will have a few drinks with Brother Qingque in the evening. "

Li Tai nodded and said, "I'm sorry, my sister."

Fang Jun watched Princess Gaoyang's slender figure disappear behind the screen leading to the apse, then turned his head to look at Li Tai, and asked softly: "Now your majesty has thought about Yi Chu again, can your majesty regret it? Complain about the words that the humble minister discouraged you?"

At the beginning, it was he and Li Tai who shared their interests and interests, which made Li Tai believe that His Majesty Li Er would not be easy to reserve and cause brothers to kill each other. However, only Jin Wang Li Zhi was left, and Li Tai had already given up fighting for the crown and withdrew from the competition.

If Li Tai had always intended to be the crown prince, he would probably sigh regretfully at this moment...

Li Tai gave Fang Jun a look, snorted, took a sip of tea from the teacup, and said casually: "You are an uninitiated king, you only know what others say and follow the crowd? No. This king admits that he voluntarily gave up fighting at the beginning. Chu, it is indeed related to what you said, but it is more from the heart. Because this king understands that if you want to fight for the crown, the first thing is to form an alliance with the nobles of Guanlong... It is an alliance, not a win over Well, this king is self-aware that it is impossible to completely control the Guanlong nobles and take it for his own use. It is just a tool they use to fight for power. "

He drank tea, leaned his upper body back slightly on the back of the chair, and sighed: "Why did Prince Yin want to get rid of the father in such a hurry? It was because he was worried that he would be coerced by the nobles of Guanlong after he ascended the throne, so he did it." He tried his best to suppress the nobles of Guanlong, so that those lawless guys in Guanlong made up their minds to start anew and fully support the father. To say something disrespectful, even if the father did not launch the change of Xuanwu Gate at that time, the nobles of Guanlong would definitely Let’s carry out an armed coup and get rid of Prince Yin, so as to prevent future troubles.”

"Your Highness is wise."

Fang Jun had to sigh, in fact, among the princes of His Majesty Li Er, when it comes to strategy, Li Tai is the first. If he is an emperor, he may not be as good as Li Zhi.

Standing on the sky of history and overlooking the long river of time, he can gain insight into the struggle behind all the turmoil and clouds in the Great Tang Dynasty. However, Li Tai is in the middle of the game and his vision is limited, but he can still get to the core of the problem. The ability is really admirable.

But why did this person in history insist on fighting for the reserve, and would not give up until he achieved his goal?
It seems that, as the later scholars said, perhaps because of my own participation, some inadvertent changes caused the internal and external changes of the whole situation, which made the cognition and consciousness of the people in the situation completely different.

The butterfly flapped its wings, causing a storm and tsunami...

Fang Jun served Li Tai more tea, and said softly, "Your Highness is eager to leave Guanzhong. Could it be that there have been some changes within the royal family?"

Li Tai was a little surprised, stared at Fang Jun for a long time, then nodded and said: "No wonder you can achieve what you are today, and your father loves you even more. This kind of sensitivity is rarely matched by anyone in court."

This confirmed Fang Jun's guess.

Fang Jun frowned, and asked again: "Can Your Highness tell me in detail?"

Li Tai hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said: "Actually, you should have guessed that someone came to me and asked me to stand up and support Zhinu. But the crown prince is my elder brother, and Zhinu is my younger brother. Brothers fight Ben has already hurt the peace, it is not appropriate for me to help anyone, so I can only stay out of it."

Fang Jun understood.

If it is said that Li Tai still has the heart to compete for reserves, taking this opportunity to muddy the water, and then fish in troubled waters is the best way.

After all, he and the crown prince and Li Zhi are the same mother and compatriots, and they are both the direct sons of His Majesty Li Er. Why can't Li Tai be able to take the position of the crown prince if those two can sit?
Speaking of which, His Majesty Li Er's earliest storage partner was Li Tai, king of Wei...

However, Li Tai has long since lost the intention of competing for the reserve, so he is bound to be unwilling to get involved. No matter who he is towards, he will offend the other, and even make his father feel disgusted.

It can be seen that the forces within the royal family supporting Jin Wang Li Zhi are very important, which makes Li Tai have to go out of Beijing to avoid the limelight, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with.

Even if Fang Jun knew about Li Tai's difficulties, he would never take care of the internal affairs of the royal family. It was a taboo, and as a foreign minister, he absolutely could not participate, otherwise even His Majesty Li Er would not be able to spare him.

Right now, being able to go out of Beijing and south with Li Tai is the best way to avoid the trend...

It's just that there must be no delay in the autumn harvest. He thought for a while and said: "Later, I will send some soldiers from Youtunwei to Lishan Mountain, and say to the outside world that in order to protect the smooth harvesting and storage of overseas crops, it is strictly forbidden to block the mountain road. In and out, His Highness has the right to stay in Lishan for the time being, and no one else can see you, so naturally there is nothing they can do about you, let alone offend others."

Li Tai hesitated a little, nodded and said, "That's okay."

The reason why he was in a hurry to go south was that he didn't want to be forced to express his opinion by various forces within the royal family, and he didn't want to get involved in the battle between the prince and the young slave. The effect of hiding in Lishan was the same. Fang Jun led troops to seal the mountain, Who dares to break in unscrupulously?

"This king will also stay with you in this palace for two days, and then go to Lishan Farm with you."

Li Tai didn't even dare to go home now, for fear that those people would find him, and he couldn't escape.

Fang Jun let out a hey, and said, "His Royal Highness King Jing is in Jiucheng Palace."

Li Tai was taken aback, and immediately said: "It's not too late, let's go down the mountain."

Fang Jun was staring at Li Tai's expression, he knew what he was seeing, and sighed: "This His Royal Highness King Jing is stirring up wind and rain everywhere, lest the world will not be chaotic, but His Highness King Jin is obsessed with power, and he is willing to be pushed out." Being a target is really stupid."

Obviously, King Jing was one of the royal families who coerced Li Tai into supporting King Jin.

Why did the ambitious King Jing win over the forces within the royal family to support King Jin's fight for heir?The answer is obvious, it is to expand the scale and deepen the influence of the reserve position competition, it is best to completely split the royal family, so that he can fish in troubled waters and take advantage of it.

Fang Jun does not believe that His Majesty Li Er is ignorant of this. Although this emperor sometimes loses his mind and is very confident in his achievements, he is like a spider web in a web, and his tentacles have already stretched to every corner of the world. But in this city of Chang'an, even the slightest disturbance can't be hidden from him.

Since His Majesty Li Er has remained silent, Fang Jun can only believe that he is controlling all developments.

That being the case, then he only needs to fully support the crown prince, and never intervene in the internal struggles of the royal family, that is an area that His Majesty Li Er will never allow foreign ministers to intervene...

Li Tai was a little helpless: "If you know it, you know it. Why do you have to say it? This kind of thing is an internal matter of the royal family. Don't meddle in it. Not only will it not help the prince, but it will be harmful and useless."

Fang Jun nodded, and said: "Thank you for your highness, let's go now, lest His Highness King Jing catches up with His Highness, and the humble minister refuses him in vain for a villain."

"Hey! Are you calling King Jing a dog, or calling this king a shit? What an idiot! But having said that, you are probably the only one who dares to shut out the King Jing who is chasing you, and King Jing is still the only one in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. I can't lose my temper at all, it's really tough."

"Hey! It's more than just shutting the door? He dares to say even half a word, and my minister dares to beat him out. Do you believe it or not?"

"This king doesn't believe it. At any rate, he is also the prince of the court, the brother of the royal father. If he touches a finger, the consequences will be worrisome."

"Do you think the method of aggressive generals is useful for the humble minister?"

"Whether it's useful or not, that's up to you."

……

The two exchanged a few words, got up together and came to the apse to bid farewell to Princess Gaoyang.

Li Tai had the attitude of a big brother, and apologized to Princess Gaoyang and Xiao Shu'er who held her skirt and saluted, "I have some personal matters, and I need Erlang's help. I really feel ashamed for disturbing your cleanliness."

Princess Gaoyang didn't know what they talked about, but she didn't ask any questions about official matters, and said with a smile: "My brother, what is there to be ashamed of? If we can help brother Qingque, we will naturally help you, brother, don't be polite. "
