Capital Datang

Changsun Ji heard the reputation and looked over, only to find Li Yin standing beside the palace gate, looking at him with a smile on his face. (You can find this site) This surprised Changsun Ji. It is said that the relationship between the two is not very harmonious. Asked to talk to himself, is he trying to laugh at himself?But Changsun Ji believed that Li Yin would not talk like that.

Thinking of this, Changsun Ji also showed a smile to Li Yin, and walked towards Li Yin and said: "His Royal Highness Qi invited me, and I am really flattered. I heard that His Highness has been with Jiang Wang and Yue Wang for the past few days. Why do you come to see the old man when you have time?"

Seeing Changsun Ji approaching him, Li Yin smiled and said, "Seventh and Eighth Brothers went to find Ninth Brother. They have a lot of cotton in Tianzhu, and the domestic textile factories can't afford it, so come and discuss with Ninth Brother. Export cotton to Datang on a large scale."

Hearing Li Yin's seemingly random words, Changsun Ji was shocked. Li Zhen and Li Yun wanted to export cotton to Datang. What is important is the deeper meaning revealed in Li Yin's words, that is, Li Zhen and Li Yun have also begun to take action to help Li Zhi start the reform of the Tang court.

Although Changsun Ji was shocked, after all, he has been in power for many years, and the city government is very comparable, so he quickly regained his composure, walked up to Li Yin and said with a smile: "Tianzhu is the birthplace of cotton. It's a win-win thing for Tianzhu, but His Royal Highness Qi came to see the old man, wouldn't he just want to chat with me about cotton?" [

Seeing that Changsun Ji was a little restless and wanted to get straight to the point when he came up, Li Yin couldn't help laughing secretly.It seems that the other party is not as calm as he appears on the surface.

I saw Li Yin made a 'please' to Changsun Ji, signaling him to take a walk along the city wall at the palace gate, and then said: "Master Changsun, remember when I first went to Taiwan, you I once went to Dongshi, in the private room of Linxian Teahouse, did I say a word to you?"

Hearing Li Yin mention that matter, Changsun Ji's expression changed, and he took a deep look at Li Yin.At the beginning, Li Chengqian and Li Tai fought for the position, but Changsun Ji didn't like them both.In addition, Li Yin, who was most likely to inherit the throne, announced that he would give up the throne of Datang and choose to develop overseas.So this made him see hope, and he took the initiative to find Li Yin, hoping that he would be with him.Supporting Li Zhi's ascension to the throne, Li Min also agreed to this. Li Zhi's subsequent ascension to the crown prince was indeed inseparable from the joint efforts of the two of them.

In addition, at the moment when the two reached an agreement, Li Yin gave him a warning, and he remembered every word of the warning: I allow you to be Zhuge Kongming, but don't plan to be Sima Yi.Otherwise, I will make your eldest grandson's family disappear from Datang completely!

For Li Yin's warning, Changsun Ji didn't take it seriously at first, but later, as Li Yin's influence overseas snowballed, he finally grew into a behemoth that could stand shoulder to shoulder with Datang.Changsun Ji also became more and more scruples about Li Yin, so naturally Changsun Ji never dared to forget his warning at the beginning.It's just that now that Li Yin brought up this matter again, what is his intention?

"Your Highness, speak directly. There is no need to go around in circles with this old man!" Changsun Ji became even more impatient, wondering what Li Yin's real intention was when he came to find him.

"Haha. Master Changsun, don't be nervous. In fact, I really have nothing to do today. I just want to catch up with Master Grandson. Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. Does Master Grandson have nothing to say to this king?" Li Ming laughed twice.When he saw the scrupulous expression on Changsun Ji's face, he couldn't help but feel a little proud. He didn't expect that what he said at the beginning would be remembered by Changsun Ji for more than ten years. It seems that he still has a lot of weight in the other party's heart.

How shrewd is Changsun Ji?Feeling the pride in Li Yin's tone, he was also very annoyed in his heart, and couldn't help snorting coldly: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness Qi Wang to come to see the old man's joke, so I forgive the old man to accompany me!"

After Changsun Ji finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave.However, Li Yin grabbed his sleeve and said solemnly: "My lord, grandson, stop. I came here today to save the lives of your eldest grandson's family!"

Hearing Li Yin's last sentence, Changsun Ji stopped immediately, and then stared at Li Yin sharply. The sad and joyful expression on his face made it hard to guess what was going on in his heart?

After a while, Changsun Ji suddenly said, "Why can't I understand what your Highness said? What is the life of my eldest grandson's family in danger of?"

But Li Min laughed again and said, "Master Changsun, why bother to ask questions knowingly? With your shrewdness, you must be very clear. If Changsun continues to go on like this, then sooner or later, the ninth brother will no longer care about family affection. If all the obstacles on the road in front of him are swept away, I'm afraid that even Mr. Zhangsun will be killed!"

"Hmph, although my eldest grandson did something wrong, but that's just a small matter. The old man has always asked himself to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Although his political views are somewhat different from His Royal Highness, as for the murderous disaster, His Highness King Qi may You're exaggerating!" Changsun Ji said with a flat look at Li Yin.

Changsun Ji didn't believe Li Yin's words at all. Although Li Zhi asked Xu Jingzong to attack him today, in his opinion, no matter how serious the disputes in the court were, he was Li Zhi's uncle after all. Sitting on the position of the crown prince, I have also made great efforts. Even if Li Zhi can win in the court in the end, no matter whether it is for public or private considerations, he will be left idle at most, and his life will not be in danger at all.

Hearing Changsun Ji's words, Li Yin smiled noncommittally, then raised his head to meet Changsun Ji's eyes, and said in a calm voice: "It seems that Master Changsun has not seen the current situation clearly. The ninth younger brother needs to deal with Datang. A huge change will be carried out to make Datang more adaptable to the development of society, and in this change, the interests of several people will be touched, and it will also have a huge impact on Datang's rule, and society will also be turbulent because of it."

When Li Yin said this, his face suddenly changed, and his tone became a little gloomy: "In this world, if you want to complete such a big change, bloodshed is inevitable. As one of the biggest resistance to this change, Changsun One, do you really think that the ninth brother will show mercy?"

Regarding Li Yin's last words, Changsun Ji's body trembled imperceptibly, and his face became even uglier.He had to admit that his previous thoughts were a little too naive, and his impression of Li Zhi was still that of that cowardly little boy more than ten years ago.After more than ten years of training, especially under the influence of Li Yin, the current Li Zhi already has the aura of an emperor. After he really ascends the throne, he may become an emperor no worse than his father.

Thinking of this, Changsun Ji couldn't help sighing. The reason why he chose Li Zhi among the princes at the beginning was because he was a legitimate son and his own nephew, and because Li Zhi's character was cowardly and he had no opinions. But I forgot one thing, that is, people will change, especially Li Zhi was only ten years old at the time. More than ten years have passed, and Li Zhi, who is already a father, is no longer the cowardly child he was back then.

Seeing that Changsun Ji was silent, Li Yin knew that the other party had listened to his words, and immediately said while the iron was hot: "My third brother, seventh brother, and eighth brother, like the ninth brother, are all the sons of the emperor. Moreover, the reason why we can achieve our current achievements is almost inseparable from the support of Datang. It can be said that Datang is our root. No matter what price we pay, we all hope to see Datang getting better and better. Ninth brother is willing to carry out reforms, and we will do our best to support them, with a few of us here, how much chance do you think you have of winning?" [

At this moment, Changsun Ji finally couldn't hold his breath any longer, and stared aggressively at Li Yin, his face was changing, with expressions of anger, fear, resentment and so on intertwined, which made it easy to see what was in Changsun Ji's heart at a glance. There is a fierce battle going on.The forces of Li Yin and the others are united. The diehards he represents cannot possibly be their opponents. Li Zhi's reforms will also continue. The whole family could be questioned.

After a while, Changsun Ji calmed down a little, and said with some difficulty: "Why did His Royal Highness King Qi tell this old man?"

Looking at Changsun Ji's eyes, a calm smile appeared on the corner of Li's mouth and said, "Master Changsun, why did you forget that I said just now that I came here to save the lives of your Changsun family?"

"If Your Highness is so kind, wouldn't tens of thousands of overseas natives die at the hands of Da Qi's army?" Chang Sun Ji said with a sarcasm, he did not believe that Li would be so kind.

However, after hearing this, Li Li was not angry at all. Instead, he joked with a smile: "If my lord Changsun thinks that he has the same status as those overseas natives, then this king can say something, but I can tell you that the reason why I Helping you like this is actually entrusted by others, if you are not willing to accept this kindness, then I have nothing to do."

Hearing that Li was entrusted by others, Changsun Ji was also taken aback for a moment, but then he had a dazed look on his face, and immediately asked, "Did your majesty or the queen entrust you to take care of our Changsun family?"

Changsun Ji and Li Shimin are not only monarchs and ministers, but also friends in need. They have a strong friendship, and Empress Changsun is his own sister, so when he heard that Li was entrusted by others, he immediately thought of them .

But Li shook his head and said: "Although the father and the mother have said similar things to me in private, there is someone else who entrusted me to take care of your eldest grandson's family!"
