This situation seems very abnormal.
Even if he wanted Li Chengyuan to be his whetstone, wasn't his knife a little too sharp now?
Or, did Emperor Qing feel that the Crown Prince and Li Chengze were the only two forces in the court, which was not conducive to his control of the court, so he wanted him to join in and make the court a three-way balance of power?
But no matter what, Li Chengyuan's power has been significantly strengthened.
The sugar coating given by Emperor Qing is really sweet. As for the situation of the shells inside, we will have to deal with them as they come!
Now finish eating the icing first!
......
Sure enough, it was the same this time.
When Emperor Qing heard Li Chengyuan pleading for Xin Qiwu, he did not react at all and agreed directly.
Li Chengyuan also completed the process and wanted to leave directly.
But this time he was stopped by Emperor Qing.
"Li Chengyuan!"
"My son is here!"
Emperor Qing looked up at Li Chengyuan and asked calmly, "The Northern Qi delegation is coming to Beijing to seek peace. Who do you think is suitable to be the reception envoy?"
Li Chengyuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately replied, "Your Majesty, I recommend Xin Qiwu as the chief envoy for the reception!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing was surprised and said, "You are so good at promoting people regardless of their ties to you!"
"Your Majesty, I just think he is the most suitable!"
Emperor Qing nodded noncommittally, then asked, "What about receiving the deputy envoy?"
"This..." Li Chengyuan thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "Your Majesty, I don't know much about the Honglu Temple, so I can't judge!"
"What do you think of Fan Xian?"
"Ah?" Li Chengyuan looked up suddenly. He was really confused!
What do you mean?
Emperor Qing asked him to recommend Fan Xian?
Could it be that Emperor Qing wants Fan Xian to join his sect?
This shouldn't be!
Or is Emperor Qing testing him?
Li Chengyuan pondered for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty, I think Fan Xian is quite talented and eloquent. He might be qualified for the position of Deputy Reception Envoy!"
Li Chengyuan couldn't diagnose Emperor Qing, so he just went with the flow and told the truth.
"Do you think Fan Xian is promising?" Emperor Qing seemed very surprised.

Li Chengyuan shook his head and said, "This son doesn't like Fan Xian!"
"why?"
Li Chengyuan bowed and said, "Because I think Fan Xian is too cynical and unruly!
He lacks reverence for the royal family!
Acting so self-centered!
I don’t like people like this!”
After listening to what Li Chengyuan said, Emperor Qing looked up and down at him, as if he wanted to see if what Li Chengyuan said was true.
After a while, Emperor Qing continued to ask, "If that's the case, why did you recommend him?"
"Because I don't want to sacrifice public interest for personal gain!" Li Chengyuan said seriously, "Although I don't like him, I also admit that he is quite talented!
The victory of Qing over Northern Qi is a rare great victory for Qing.
Such a victory will naturally continue into the negotiations.
Northern Qi came here to negotiate peace with the Qing Kingdom. As such, the position of the negotiator is of utmost importance.
Fan Xian is not only talented and eloquent, but also has a rebellious character, making him the most suitable negotiator.
Therefore, I recommend him entirely for the sake of Qing Kingdom!"
After listening to this, Emperor Qing fell silent for a long time again.
Then, he waved his hand and said, "In that case, submit a memorial tomorrow and leave!"
"My son, please retire!"
Li Chengyuan bowed and left.
Looking at Li Chengyuan's departing back, Emperor Qing was silent for a long time and finally sighed.
At this moment, Emperor Qing might really feel sorry for Li Chengyuan!
Emperor Qing had to admit that in terms of talent and ability, Li Chengyuan was perhaps the most outstanding of the three princes, and the one with the best qualities to be a king!
But unfortunately, who made Li Chengyuan Ye Qingmei's son?
Anyone can be the emperor except Li Chengyuan.
Because there were too many people involved in the murder of Ye Qingmei back then.
Once Li Chengyuan becomes emperor, there will surely be bloodshed in the capital city.
Even Emperor Qing’s reputation will be affected after his death.
This is not what Emperor Qing wants to see.
So, there is nothing you can do about it, some things are destined to happen.
......
On the way back home from leaving the palace, Li Chengyuan kept thinking about what had just happened.
It was obvious that Emperor Qing must be planning something that he was unaware of.
Li Chengyuan didn't know what it was specifically.
It's not that he is stupid, but Emperor Qing always likes to leave hidden clues and lay out plans for thousands of miles. Until the last moment, few people can see through his thoughts.
Just like this time's cleansing of the bureaucracy, who would have thought that Emperor Qing had started planning when he made Li Chengyuan a king?
Therefore, Li Chengyuan had no idea what Emperor Qing was thinking.
But one thing is certain, Emperor Qing definitely has no good intentions!
After thinking for a long time, Li Chengyuan found nothing.
After taking a long breath, Li Chengyuan decided not to think about it anymore.
Since you can't figure it out, just deal with it as it comes.
Even if I really fall into Emperor Qing's trap in the end, the worst that can happen is that I will confront him in advance.
Anyway, with his current foundation, he is able to compete with Emperor Qing.
Of course, if possible, Li Chengyuan still hopes that Emperor Qing will abdicate voluntarily!
As for how to do it, Li Chengyuan also had a plan.
Now Kyoto City has been completely controlled by Emperor Qing. If he wants to break the deadlock, he can only seek help from outside.
The diplomatic mission to Northern Qi was an opportunity.
But if he wants to go in person, he needs to plan carefully.
......
After returning to the palace, Li Chengyuan was told by Hongshu that Huaqing Pool had been completed.
Upon hearing this, Li Chengyuan immediately became interested, put aside his thoughts for the time being, and headed for the back garden.
The so-called Huaqing Pool is the swimming pool that Li Chengyuan had always wanted to build.
The location is in an attic next to the garden.
The original construction period for the swimming pool was about a week.
But because Li Chengyuan was too busy some time ago, and Li Chengyuan wanted to do it in one go and build it better, it has been delayed until now.
The name of the swimming pool was given by Li Chengyuan to satisfy his bad taste.
Li Chengyuan and Hongshu came to the back garden and went straight to the garden pond.
This pond leads directly to Qing Lake outside the city.
The poem Li Chengyuan wrote for the blue bird was written by the Qing Lake.
Huaqing Pool is right next to the pond. Li Chengyuan had a water channel built in the attic. The water channel passes through the garden pond and flows directly into Qing Lake outside the mansion.
In this way, after Li Chengyuan extracts the spiritual spring, the spring water gushing out of the spring can slowly flow into Qing Lake.
There is a secret passage leading to the river outside the city on the other side of Qing Lake, so there is no need to worry about the lake flooding.
......
Huaqing Pool is located in the second-floor attic, which has been completely renovated and renamed Chunhan Tower!
