Chapter 18
Du He was really confused at this moment. He couldn't imagine why his mother would say such things. She shouldn't be extremely angry at this time!

But what's going on now, not only reprimanded himself, but not only was there no anger on his face, there was even a hint of joy on his face, which made Du He unable to understand.

Mrs. Liu obviously also saw the puzzlement in Du He's heart, so she sat with Du He on the stone steps of Lai Guogong's mansion in a non-figurative manner.

"Silly boy, do you think my mother is stupid? It is obvious that Princess Changguang is not a good match, but my mother is not only not annoyed, but also happy?" Sitting next to Du He, Liu Shi smiled at the moment. Unexpectedly, Du He said.

"Mother, don't be a fool. This is our mother and son. If you have anything to say, you can say it quickly! What the hell is going on!" Du He saw his mother, who was still playing tricks at this time, he Some anxiously hurriedly urged.

"Before explaining this, let me ask you first, do you know why your father still received such a great favor after he passed away, and why he was bestowed the title of first-class duke, and his majesty personally bestowed a posthumous title!" Looking at her anxious little son, instead of answering his question immediately, Liu asked him another question.

And this question obviously caught Du He. He really wanted to say that it was his father who was Li Shimin's number one think tank, but he was wrong when he thought about it. In the end, he honestly shook his head to express his ignorance.

"Actually, this question is easy to explain. Apart from your father's outstanding ability, the main reason is that your father has followed His Majesty since his infancy. Even if you look at all the civil servants above the court, they control important departments. They are all old ministers from the original Qin Palace!

It's because they are all great!Some people are, but some people are not necessarily, at least there are many people with the same ability as them in the whole Tang Dynasty! "After Liu finished speaking, she looked at her son calmly.

"Mother, what do you mean to say, it doesn't matter whether the ability is strong or not, as long as you follow the right person, the most..."

"Idiot, what I want to tell you is that when you have the ability, it is the right thing to follow the right person! Otherwise, even if you have great ability, it will be useless if you follow the wrong person, and it will even harm your wife, children, and children, but the same It's just about following the right person. If you don't have the ability, you can't do it! So, do you understand?" After Mrs. Liu finished speaking, she looked at her youngest son speechlessly.

"Understood, but I still don't understand, and what's the relationship between this and what we're going to talk about?" Du He asked puzzled.

"You said that your previous cleverness went there, and you don't understand this? You are so stupid! Do you have to tell me so bluntly to understand!" Liu looked at her youngest son's stupid and cute With a stupid and cute look, he reached out and knocked his head angrily, and then cursed there.

But Du He was not annoyed by this, and stared at Liu Shi with a pair of big eyes, with such an expression.

"It seems that your father and I really didn't discipline you too much before, and didn't even understand this!

Ability, choice, these are never the purpose, but the means. The real purpose is the benefits of doing so!
Take your father as an example, why did he join Li Tang and why did he join His Majesty's command with so many powerful forces back then!

In addition to your father being very optimistic about the current Majesty, an important reason is that there were not many capable civil servants and advisers around the present Majesty, and this family can make your father stand out from these people quickly.

At the same time, your father was also betting that His Majesty would be able to become a great treasure today.

And the final result is that father won the bet, he is an extremely human minister!Get what countless people dream of!
But there’s a problem here. Your father’s success is based on Your Majesty’s support!

And to say something disrespectful, His Majesty will be away one day, and at that time, how to choose is a difficult problem before you and your brother!
At that time, whether you choose to be neutral and slowly move away from the center of power, or whether you choose to join one side and gain a further step, or whether you choose to destroy it, it all depends on your choice!So you understand! "After Mrs. Liu finished saying these words, she looked at Du He aside.

It's just that Du He still showed a look of ignorance.

He understands the change of power, and every change of power is accompanied by countless bones, he also understands, but he just doesn't understand what it has to do with marrying a widowed princess and his wife still looks happy.

"You are really stupid! My old lady has said so much, just to tell you that we, the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty, are all dependent on the Li Tang royal family!
It can be said that everything we got was given by the royal family of Li Tang. Now that His Majesty has issued a decree to grant the marriage, then the Du family must recognize this marriage, and we must recognize it, otherwise the entire Tang Dynasty will not have my Du family. place to live.

Even if His Majesty withdraws his order because of your father's relationship, it will undoubtedly offend His Majesty. After that, I, a member of the Du family, will no longer appear in the power center of the Tang Dynasty!
And the consequence of not being able to appear in the power center of the Tang Dynasty is that our Du family will decline day by day.

So Princess Changguang, you have to marry whether you want to marry or not! Seeing that her son still didn't react, Ms. Liu had no choice but to explain to him.

At this moment, Du He understood completely. Even before the union, what his old mother said, Princess Changguang's entry, as long as the imperial power changes in the future, as long as she does not stand in the wrong team, then the Lai State Duke's Mansion will still be the Lai State Duke Mansion, and there will be no accidents. Any suppression can even go one step further.

Even if they remain neutral, the existence of Princess Changguang will prevent the new emperor from being suspicious. Although the power may not be as good as before, as far as Ming Qian is concerned, after Du Ruhui's death, the Lai Kingdom Duke's Mansion has been considered lonely.

So it turned out that the arrival of a princess, a princess of the same generation as Her Majesty today, would bring something to the Duke of Lai Kingdom, that was obvious.

But Du He was puzzled that such a calculation could come from his mother, and that he could figure it out in such a short period of time.

This has to make Du He admire the wisdom of the ancients even more, but think about it, if the ancients who have been passed down for thousands of years and created countless miracles are not smart, it would be fake.

"Mother, I have seen it today. It turns out that there is still a female Zhuge like you in our house!" After Du He figured it out, he flattered Mrs. Liu with admiration.

"What girl Zhuge, this is just the most basic survival skill for a descendant of a family! And you don't know, it's just that your mother and your father have neglected you all these years! But now my son can understand, it seems I am lucky for the Du family!" Seeing that her son had figured it out and understood, Mrs. Liu said that in relief.
