I'm a marquis in Datang

Du Qi knew that his words were deceitful, but he had to be deceptive if he should. If he could, he should try his best to be deceptive, and continued: "Prince, there are three reasons why I said this."

Li Jiancheng said: "I would like to hear the details."

Du Qidao: "First, as the crown prince and the eldest son, it doesn't matter whether the prince has made meritorious service or whether he has military merits, as long as the prince does not make mistakes, as the eldest son of the prince, especially during the founding period, many rules and regulations It needs to be formulated, and the establishment of a heir and an elder is one of the fundamentals."

"Once your majesty, as the founding king, breaks this rule and does not establish a heir and an elder, then there will always be a struggle for the heir in the later generations of the Tang Dynasty. For the sake of the eternal state of the Tang Dynasty, and for the post of the crown prince of the future generations of the Tang Dynasty Stable, His Majesty, no matter what, it is impossible to dethrone the prince."

"So no matter what, the crown prince's status is as stable as Mount Tai."

"Does the prince agree with this?"

Du Qi talked eloquently and began to fool around.

After Li Jiancheng heard it, he thought about it carefully, and felt that this was the truth.

Because in the early days of the founding of the country, not setting up a heir and establishing a head is tantamount to making a very bad start. If the rules are broken, later generations will have no basis to follow suit, which means that the future kings of the Tang Dynasty and the kings of all dynasties will have a struggle for the heir. is extremely dangerous.

Li Jiancheng nodded and said, "Mr. Mu, what about the second one?"

Du Qi continued: "The second point is to keep a low profile and develop power secretly, instead of wooing officials with great fanfare and cultivating power. If I remember correctly, before His Highness the Crown Prince, he secretly wooed Concubine Yin De and Zhang Jieyu, making them My heart is for the prince, and I speak for the prince everywhere, which is of great help."

"At that time, although the prince had disputes with the King of Qin, he always restrained himself. At that time, His Highness the Prince's influence in the army was low, so His Majesty always stood by the Prince's side from the beginning to the end, and continued to support the Prince. Let the crown prince compete with King Qin."

Li Jiancheng nodded in agreement, and murmured: "There is such a thing."

The corner of Du Qi's mouth curled up into a smile, and said: "Prince, you are the crown prince of the country, the crown prince appointed by His Majesty. As long as you are here with His Majesty, and you are favored by His Majesty, no matter how strong you are, no matter how powerful you are, there is no problem. "

"As long as His Majesty is toward you, the crown prince must inherit the great treasure in the end."

"Especially the weaker the Prince's superficial power, the more His Majesty will turn to you and suppress King Qin."

"Your Majesty's suppression of the King of Qin is different from the Crown Prince's own actions to suppress the King of Qin. Don't you see, the Crown Prince has lost His Majesty's favor, and he is in a difficult position, hindered everywhere, and even reprimanded by His Majesty one after another."

"His Royal Highness, you are too ostentatious and have aroused His Majesty's disgust."

Du Qi said: "The prince can target the King of Qin, but he can't be too ostentatious, and he can't show it everywhere. Hearing the thunder in a silent place is the highest level."

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Li Jiancheng nodded hurriedly as he listened.

He thinks Du Qi's analysis makes sense.

Chapter 451 The end of the plan

end of plan

During this period of time, he was suppressed by the emperor everywhere, was constrained everywhere, and was even ordered to contemplate behind closed doors from time to time, which made Li Jiancheng feel very uncomfortable.

Now, after hearing Du Qi's words, Li Jiancheng felt that everything was clear.

It's all in the wrong direction.

If he had still kept a low profile before, developed his strength secretly, and then showed weakness on the surface, then his father would not suppress him, but would help him everywhere.

Li Jiancheng leaned forward and asked, "Mr. Mu, what about the third point?"

Du Qi said: "The third point is to praise King Qin and continue to let King Qin make meritorious deeds."

Li Jiancheng said: "How to say?"

Du Qidao: "Because the stronger the king of Qin is, the pressure will be exerted on the prince. But in fact, His Majesty will also feel great pressure."

"The so-called master of high merit is exactly like this."

"Therefore, there is no need to suppress the King of Qin. Rather than that, it is better to let the King of Qin build

His meritorious service, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs to take the initiative to show his merits and congratulate the King of Qin.In this way, it is to show that the prince has a big heart and a big pattern, and he is a corporal. "

"Moreover, it's also the performance of brothers and friends."

"For the crown prince, the first thing you need to do is not need any great achievements, but a good name, and a reputation. With this foundation, His Royal Highness the crown prince's succession in the future will be as stable as Mount Tai."

Du Qi said: "In the end, King Qin will definitely not be able to survive the crown prince."

After Li Jiancheng heard it, he thought about it carefully, and felt that it made sense, but he also asked a question: "But after King Qin becomes the queen, even if I succeed to the throne, I will face a huge threat!"

"wrong!"

Du Qi shook his head and said: "Once the crown prince ascends the throne, he will have the righteousness and power in his hands. Even if the king of Qin is powerful, how many people will be willing to rebel with the king of Qin? As long as the crown prince recruits peace, everything will not be a problem."

Li Jiancheng nodded. He felt that Du Qi's words made sense, and quickly said, "Mr. Mu's analysis makes sense."

Du Qi laughed.

He was purely fooling Li Jiancheng.

Du Qi's core purpose is to let Li Jiancheng keep a low profile and avoid conflicts with the King of Qin.

Conflict, and then let King Qin develop.If this was a time of peace and prosperity and Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, everything would be fine.

This was the period of the founding of the country, and Li Shimin's subordinates were a group of brave generals, and when Li Shimin's strength became stronger, even Li Yuan could not deal with it easily, and it would be even more impossible to move Li Shimin at that time.

On the surface, it was for Li Jiancheng's sake, but in fact, it was for Li Shimin's benefit.

Du Qi said: "His Royal Highness, I think the most important thing now is not the battle achievements, nor the number of enemies killed. In the final analysis, it is the favor of His Majesty, which is the key."

"exactly!"

Li Jiancheng had been persuaded at this moment, and nodded hurriedly.Because the road that Wei Zheng assisted him has been hit hard all the time, this road is not feasible. After Du Qi said a direction, Li Jiancheng felt that it was feasible.

So Li Jiancheng believed it.

Li Jiancheng looked at Du Qi at this moment, as if he was looking at a bosom friend, and he said with emotion: "If the prince had met Mr. earlier, he would not have been in a difficult situation a while ago. Sigh, speaking carefully, it is true. It is because I have lost the respect of my father, so I am in a dilemma."

Du Qi said with a smile: "It's good that the prince understands. In fact, in my opinion, the greater the meritorious service of King Qin, the more Mu Xiuyu will be destroyed by the wind. After he becomes too powerful, His Majesty will naturally come forward to restrain him, so the prince does not need to worry about it. "

Li Jiancheng said: "That's the truth."

Du Qidao: "The most important thing is that I stay by King Qin's side. King Qin's power is getting stronger and stronger. I will collect evidence of illegal activities in Prince Qin's residence. It's a small matter, so collecting the affairs of King Qin's mansion bit by bit, and finally revealing it, is to criticize King Qin. This is an opportunity!"

Li Jiancheng said: "Not bad, not bad!"

He already agreed with Du Qi's suggestion and analysis, and he was very happy in his heart.

Seeing Li Jiancheng's appearance, Du Qi felt at ease.

It's done!
