The Happy Prince of Tang Dynasty

"what!"

After drinking a glass of wine, both Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan yelled cheerfully.

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and said with a smile, "Cheng'er, it seems that we, father and son, haven't talked like this for a long time."

"Father, you're getting busier, aren't you?" Li Jiancheng said casually after taking a bite of the side dish.

"You, you..." Li Yuan laughed angrily after hearing Li Jiancheng's words. "Cheng'er, you have been running outside since you grew up, and you have only spent so much time at home. Today, you actually said it was your father's fault." [

"hey-hey…"

Seeing that the lie was exposed, Li Jiancheng didn't feel embarrassed at all.

"Hey!"

Looking at Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan sighed, "In the blink of an eye, I am so old as a father. I thought that I would hand over the world to you brothers in the future, but you planned to leave."

"Father, my son doesn't care about things." Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuan and said seriously, "My son has an idea. After my son leaves, the Li family can be divided into two parts, the light and the dark. In the light, the Li family uses the emperor's authority." rights, and the Li family in the dark is responsible for guarding the Li family."

After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Okay, this is a great idea!"

"Father, do you still remember when you were in Chang'an when you were young, there were assassins going to the palace?" Li Jiancheng asked a question that made Li Yuan baffled.

"I remember, of course I remember." Li Yuan said happily, "That day the guards searched for assassins everywhere, and my father was still worried about checking the room one by one. When I finally arrived at your house, you didn't respond to what my father called. ?”

Speaking of this matter, Li Yuan seemed to be caught in the memories of the past again, raising his head, frowning, joyful, and various expressions from time to time.

After Li Yuan came back to his senses, Li Jiancheng continued, "Actually, the assassin had already arrived at the child's room that time..."

"What!? Cheng'er, are you okay?" Before Li Jiancheng finished speaking, Li Yuan stood up excitedly.Although he knew that Li Jiancheng was still standing in front of him safely at this time, it meant that there was nothing wrong.But Li Yuan still felt scared. Li Jiancheng was only a few years old at the time, and if he accidentally angered the assassin, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Father, it's a child's business." Seeing Li Yuan's reaction, Li Jiancheng was moved in his heart, but there was still a calm expression on his face. "Speaking of which, thanks to that assassin, the boy was able to make it this far."

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Li Yuan asked puzzled.

Therefore, Li Jiancheng said that the assassin gave him the "Chapter of Longevity" and asked him to destroy the Sui Dynasty.

Looking closely at Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan shook his head and said with emotion: "Fortunately, Cheng'er, you are destined to die. If something happens to you, you won't even know what to do as a father."

Li Jiancheng comforted: "Father, it has been so many years, so don't think too much. Without that experience, the child may not be able to get to where he is today."

Li Yuan nodded in agreement and said: "That's right, now Cheng'er, you are also a grandmaster, how many masters are there in the world?" Suddenly, Li Yuan asked again: "Cheng'er, then what do you decide to do with this "The Secret of Longevity?" "?"

Li Jiancheng thought about it carefully, and finally said solemnly: "I want to leave some of the skills of health preservation and life extension to the Li family in the open, and leave the more advanced skills to the Li family in the dark."

"Why is Cheng'er like this?" Li Yuan frowned and said in puzzlement. [

"Father, if you and Shimin are of good character, with profound strength and long life span, it will benefit all people. However, if there is a cruel and unkind successor in the Li family, And his strength is so high, who can subdue him?"

"This..." Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, and finally felt that Li Jiancheng's words were indeed correct, but there always seemed to be something wrong.

"Of course, if people in the dark have practiced the exercises, they will have other ideas. Therefore, the Li family in the dark must set up the ancestor's precepts, and never interfere with the government until a critical moment. , then my descendants of the Li family will discuss it together."

After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and then he suddenly realized that something was wrong just now, and he only thought of it after hearing Li Jiancheng's words, and now Li Jiancheng also thought of it, so there is nothing to worry about.

Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction. With so many defenses, if the Li family can't last longer than the Zhou Dynasty, then there is really nothing to say.

"Actually, my son still has some opinions, but they may not sound good." Li Jiancheng hesitated for a while, and finally said what was in his heart.

"Hehe, Cheng'er, if you have anything to say, just say it. Is there anything you can't say between father and son?" Li Yuan said indifferently.

"If that's the case, let's say it." Li Jiancheng said slowly after deliberating on his words, "If my Li family is to continue for thousands of years, some customs must be changed. First of all, the emperor's concubines should not be too There are many, there are many things in history between brothers competing for the throne. The distant ones are like the dispute between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, and the near ones are like the dispute between Yang Guang and Yang Yong. Moreover, with so many concubines, they may not all be able to take care of them, so..."

Li Jiancheng didn't continue his words, Li Yuan naturally understood, "You boy, fortunately, I only have your mother as a father. And Shimin is only Yougou and Jin'er, Yuanji is not yet married, Yuanba's character is Thinking about it, there would be no other women except Lian'er. But you, boy, have so many beauties around you that even a father would be envious of."

"Based on your current status, father, are you afraid that there will be no women?" Li Jiancheng smirked.

"Ahem..." Li Yuan, who was drinking, was choked suddenly, and said dissatisfiedly: "You kid is still encouraging your father and me. If your mother finds out, let's see if she doesn't smoke you."

After chatting, the two continued to talk about business, "After talking about concubines, the relationship between children and grandchildren is also very important. First of all, the eunuchs in the palace should be eliminated. There are many examples of eunuchs "disrupting" government, so we must kill these things in the future. In the root cause. Secondly, we should allow our descendants to communicate more with civil servants and military generals, so that when he ascends the throne, the reason for his childhood relationship will definitely become their right-hand man."

"Well, this makes sense." Li Yuan nodded in agreement.

"As for the last point, just..." Li Jiancheng thought about whether to say the last point.

Seeing his hesitating and hawing, Li Yuan immediately became dissatisfied, "Cheng'er, when have you been so hesitant? If you have any suggestions, just say it."

"Actually, the child is thinking of a certain age, then the emperor should take the initiative to abdicate instead of growing old in his position. In the past, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in his 70s, but his health did not weaken, and his son was still in his 30s. Under the instigation of the counselors, the situation of father and son killing each other was finally caused, which is deplorable. Therefore, we have to guard against it. Of course, this is also applicable to the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, so that we can continuously inject fresh blood into the empire .”

Hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yuan was really shocked at the beginning, but after careful thinking, Li Yuan also knew that what Li Jiancheng said was not wrong.

An emperor abdicated while he was alive, avoiding the cannibalism of father and son, and it is also more conducive to avoiding cannibalism between brothers.

When he is still alive, choose a successor to abdicate to him, and there will be no open and secret fights between the brothers because of the sudden abdication of the previous emperor.

Moreover, he is alive, and he can also guide the successor to avoid making too many mistakes.

"Hehe, Cheng'er, as a father, I don't even know why you have so many thoughts in your mind, and every thought is so sharp and incisive." Li Yuan said with a smile.

"Hey, I will understand after reading too many books." Of course, Li Jiancheng couldn't say that he came from time travel and knew many policies. [

"Okay, it's getting late. There are still some things to deal with as a father, so you can go back first."

"Father, take care of your body and don't be too tired." Seeing that Li Yuan still had to deal with things, he shook his head in frustration.Finally, after exhorting a few words, he left the palace.

But people in the world don't know that a dialogue that triggered the Tang Dynasty's reforms ended without anyone knowing it. If anyone knew that the changes that had a great impact on future generations were a random conversation between father and son, they would be dumbfounded.

Looking at Li Jiancheng who left, Li Yuan smiled and returned to the study...
