Tiantang Splendid

4194--Andrew
Li You said as he cried, knocking his head so loudly, his forehead was broken after a few strokes, and blood oozed out. In addition to the blood stains left by the blood sprayed from the nostrils before, the whole person was in a state of embarrassment and misery.

The smile on Li Chengqian's face gradually disappeared, and he sat upright, his eyes were shining brightly.

He is indeed soft-tempered, and he is indeed indecisive.

But that doesn't mean he has no temper!

At that time, the Guanlong mutiny besieged Chang'an, and the East Palace was about to fall. Everyone from the princess and the concubine was afraid and weeping, panicking. The officials struggled to support them. If Fang Jun hadn't rushed thousands of miles from the Western Regions to help, the East Palace might still be reduced to ashes at this moment.

At the most difficult time, in order to maintain the orthodoxy after cutting off his prince, Changsun Wuji had to find a prince to replace him.

As a result, King Wei and King Jin, who were most qualified to succeed the reserve, did not make trouble, and would rather die than attach themselves to Changsun Wuji to become his puppet. A call to action against the prince...

Even if Li Chengqian is a pottery sculpture made of clay, how can he be without any anger?

It's just that they are brothers in the end, and at this time, the pheasant slaves are making trouble, so they have been ignoring them all the time, only thinking about waiting until the overall situation is settled.

Unexpectedly, today, the matter was pushed to the surface by a few brothers...

Li Tai checked his words, saw the faint anger in Li Chengqian's eyes, and knew that this matter would definitely leave a very bad impression in the prince's heart, so he hurriedly stood beside Li You, bowed to the ground, and said sincerely: "This matter is indeed the fault of the fifth, Wan You shouldn't stoop to be a thief, causing your brothers to turn against each other, and your father's spirit in heaven is also angry and disappointed... But the prince should also understand the temperament of the fifth child. The oppression is so extreme that even you and I are afraid of its power, let alone fifth brother?"

This statement actually makes sense. His Majesty Li Er's "all sons are outstanding people" is recognized, but not all of them are outstanding. Except for the three sons-in-law and the elder Li Ke, the rest are excellent, but they can't afford " He is called an outstanding person.

Especially the two kings of Qi, Li You and Shu Wang, who have always acted outrageously and unreasonably. Not only the government and the opposition were criticized, but even His Majesty Li Er himself was a big headache, and he was regarded as "unable to be adjusted"...

So it's not surprising that Li You did such a thing under the threat of Changsun Wuji.

If he can stand firm and refuse to give in, then he has seen a ghost...

Li Tai didn't finish what he said, but the hidden meaning was: just because Li You is a soft bone who did wrong things under the threat of others, you can't resolutely punish him for serious crimes, right?
For one thing, this softie has nothing to offer, and can't do anything wrong, and even though he stooped to being a thief, he didn't make a big mistake after all...

Li Chengqian's face sank like water, and he didn't say a word.

Fang Jun next to him said with a smile at the moment: "His Royal Highness Wei Wang's words are strange. According to you, as long as you are afraid of death, even if you do something wrong, others should understand and forgive you?"

Li You, who was kneeling there, changed his face, and cursed in his heart: I thought you were here to help plead, why did you still make trouble?
Quickly raised his head slightly, behind Li Chengqian's back, he repeatedly gave Fang Jun winks, his face full of pleading looks.

When it comes to influence on the prince, there will never be anyone above Fang Jun in the whole world. If Fang Jun can intercede for him, he can easily dispel the prince's anger. It was when Li You died...

Li Tai was silent for a while, and sighed: "I didn't mean that... It's just that even though this soft bone is wrong, it's still a blood brother. Now that the father and the emperor are going to die, there are only our flesh and blood relatives to help each other in this world." , and another pheasant slave foolishly rebelled, if there is no fifth younger brother... the blood of the Tian family will inevitably wither, and the father is in the spirit of the sky, wouldn't it be painful and disappointing?"

Fang Jun turned to Li Chengqian, nodded and said, "Your Highness King Wei's words make sense...the so-called 'brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers', after all, are their own brothers, how can they tolerate brotherhood? Now the reason why King Jin made the rebellion It's because of the trend of the situation and being deceived by traitors. In the future, His Highness only needs to cut off the rebellion and secure the throne, and the closest people around you are these flesh and blood brothers."

A sword has two fronts, and everything has advantages and disadvantages.

When the current situation is turbulent, the siblings in front of you are the ones who can threaten the throne the most, but it is often these siblings who can defend the throne without fear of death...

The emperor can't kill all his brothers after he ascends the throne, right?

The key lies in what the emperor does.

Li You was overwhelmed with gratitude, and hurriedly expressed his opinion: "Brother Qingque and Erlang's words of defense, I am deeply impressed, and dare not forget. But after all, I did something stupid at the beginning, how can I erase it in one fell swoop? Brother Prince, my brother is willing to do it from now on. Living in the mansion, shutting the door and not going out, be a prince honestly, don't dare to cause any trouble!"

All the princes were shocked and looked at Li You: How can this be the weak, fearful and unprincipled Li You?He is clearly a ruthless person!
Living in a secluded mansion is equivalent to imprisoning oneself. Of course, there will be no lack of luxurious life, but after all, you will be cut off from the court and the world from now on. That kind of loneliness is not something ordinary people can bear.

Even knowing that the crown prince will never let him go lightly even if he spares him the death penalty, it still takes courage to say such things by yourself.

After all, everyone is a bit lucky, thinking what if the crown prince gently uncovered it...

Li Tai hurriedly said: "Brother Prince, it can be seen that the fifth younger brother really knew his mistake this time, and my younger brother is willing to act as a guarantor for him. If he dares to act recklessly in the future, my younger brother will personally take his head, and then commit suicide to the crown prince." In front of him. Please forgive him this time!"

The rest of Li Zhen, Li Fu and others knelt down one after another, even Li Min knelt down reluctantly, and all the brothers said in unison: "Please forgive him this time, Prince."

The princes knelt down on the ground, and Fang Jun couldn't sit still, so he got up and stood beside him with his hands tied, without speaking.

He has always been aware of Li Chengqian's character, which can be described as "soft and hard". Even if he had a bit of murderous intentions towards Li You before, now that all the brothers are kneeling down to beg each other, the murderous intentions may have faded away...

Sure enough, when Li Chengqian saw this scene, he got up quickly and went to help Li Tai first. Li Tai couldn't afford it, so he stomped his feet anxiously and said: "You are lonely brothers and sisters, everything can be discussed, why is this? Besides, lonely I never said that the fifth younger brother would be bestowed with death. You guys can feel the brotherhood and are willing to intercede for him. Isn’t Gu not your brother? It’s just that you are like this, of course you have fulfilled the righteousness of brothers , but where will it be isolated?"

As he spoke, he went to pick up Li Zhen again, tears were already streaming down his face.

Li You climbed two steps forward, hugged Li Chengqian's leg, and cried loudly: "Brother Prince, I really know my mistake. Even if I fight with swords and axes in the future, I will definitely not dare to disobey the prince's heart in the slightest. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning from the sky, and I will die a terrible death!"

Li Tai also cried, with tears in his eyes, and choked with sobs: "We used to be happy at the knees of our father, brotherly love, and family happiness. Just because the brothers on the throne fought against each other and killed each other, I am really ashamed of my father's teachings, and even more ashamed of my mother's previous teachings, I am ashamed of being a son of man!"

Hearing him mention the long-dead Empress Wende, several princes burst into tears. Although Empress Wende passed away for many years, her voice and smile still linger in everyone's hearts, thinking about the love and care of this generation of empress , Teaching, and finally the brothers hugged each other and cried.

Fang Jun couldn't get into this kind of emotion, so he stood on one side with his hands tied, a little embarrassed.

The princes kept crying for half a stick of incense, and Fang Juncai had to cough twice, and said: "Your highnesses love each other, brothers and brothers respect each other, it is enough to comfort the late emperor and empress Wende. Support each other, carry forward the past and open up the future, don't let the prosperity of Zhenguan created by the first emperor come to an end, and father and son write a love story one after another, which will last forever."

The stability of the court depends largely on the stability of the royal family.

As long as the royal family is stable and there is no embarrassment due to the ownership of the throne, after the King Jin's rebellion is put down, the political situation will be stable for a long time.

Throughout the ages, all dynasties, as long as the government is stable, they can always burst out with great enterprising spirit and creativity, and create a glorious and prosperous era of clean rivers, rich countries and strong people.

Now His Majesty Li Er's Zhenguan prosperous age is still in the end. If the prince can carry on the past and usher in the future after he ascends the throne, and continue the prosperous age, and at the same time continue to implement the imperial examinations and suppress the elites, so that the empire will embark on the road of civil politics. After three to fifty years, it will be possible to consolidate China. the foundation of

Even if there are changes in the future, and even dynasties change, this foundation will always exist, and even after thousands of years, it will continue to exert its influence, and eventually the people will be enlightened, and the old path of the rise and fall of dynasties will no longer be restored.
