Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Shimin was neither shocked nor surprised by Li Chengqian's words. When Li Chengqian said those words before, Li Shimin had a premonition, or some of Li Chengqian's actions during this period made Li Shimin aware of his thoughts.

"Why?" Li Shimin asked very calmly.

"I can't afford it." Li Chengqian sighed, "As the eldest son, I actually have this obligation, and I have been studying hard. I have always felt that if I succeed to the throne, I dare not say I can become a wise king like you, but as a successful king, there shouldn't be any problem."

"However, I found out that I couldn't keep up with each of the national policies proposed by Sanlang, or I didn't have any basic concepts in my mind. I'm not afraid to let my father know that during this period of time, My son has read a lot of history books, trying to find some answers from the books of the sages."

"It's just that the result disappointed Erchen."

Li Shimin nodded: "Tell me in detail."

"I have found some ideas similar to the national policy proposed by San Lang, but there are only ideas, but no specific examples, no specific implementation of the policy, even if the idea is good, what's the use? Just like what San Lang once said In that sentence, he thinks that everyone in the world has books to read, houses to live in, enough to eat, and even time to go around every year, without worrying about natural disasters and man-made disasters."

"However, I also have these ideas. The question is what are the specific measures? How to govern? A good policy can benefit all people, but a wrong policy may cause a country to collapse. It can be said that one wrong step will lose everything. "

"And how many of these policies did Saburo propose? 21!" Li Chengqian said with a wry smile.

"It's 22 now." Li Shimin was also a little helpless, and then told Li Chengqian about the one that Li Ke raised before leaving, about the Central Bank of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian: "..."

"Father, what can I do if I succeed to the throne? At that time, I still have to ask Saburo for advice? The problem is, things that Sanlang can solve directly by himself have to go through me." One hand, what is this plotting? Wouldn’t it be enough to just let Sanlang be the prince?” Li Chengqian also directly clarified the problem.

"Besides, during this period of time, I have thought a lot about it. Regarding the eldest son inheritance system, I feel that it is very inappropriate. If my eldest son is a fool, I will also make the whole country a big one. Is the fate of tens of millions of people in the hands of such a person?"

"It's said that a man is innocent and he is guilty. If he doesn't have the ability to sit in this position, he will not only misunderstand the people of the world, but also himself!"

"So I feel that this system itself is wrong. The emperor should choose the one with the most outstanding ability among the many princes, and the prince should not be established when he is young, at least after the princes grow up, according to their Daily performance, knowledge, experience, and many other aspects will be evaluated before appointing a prince."

"Finally, it was determined in the form of a will, and the ministers think it is very good, so that the princes can relatively avoid the situation of conquering each other." Li Chengqian spent this period of time thinking hard, how to try to ensure that the princes do not put their main abilities on the battle. The method on the throne has been said.

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian, and said helplessly, "I understand what you're saying. The question is, have you seen Sanlang's thoughts? He doesn't want to be the emperor at all, he just wants to be a happy prince."

"As for why he is doing what he is doing now, do you know the reason? It is because he thinks that if Datang is not prosperous and advanced enough, there are not many interesting places. It is not enough for him to enjoy." Li Shimin was a little speechless, "That's why he thought of these ways to let Da Tang Tang Sihai is in peace, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, so he can travel around the mountains and rivers with peace of mind."

"That's one, and the second is that the powerful ministers don't agree to remove your crown prince and let Saburo take over."

Li Chengqian immediately sat up straight, and said quickly: "Actually, I have a way."

"Tell me." Li Shimin was a little curious.

"Father, do you remember what Saburo told you about enhancing the power of the officials and weakening the power of the emperor, so that you will not be so tired." Li Chengqian said quickly, Li Shimin had communicated with him about this matter.

Li Shimin nodded. This was after Li Ke told him about it, and he later told Li Chengqian about it. Ke was still in front of his eldest grandson Wuji, and Fang Xuanling and the others also mentioned this matter.

"Remember, why?"

"Father, if you reveal your tone in private, say that San Lang proposed this matter, and it is best that San Lang carry it out. You don't want to carry it out. Do you think they will support San Lang's supremacy?" Li Chengqian asked.

Li Shimin paused for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "Indeed, there are some things that they don't see enough interests, so of course they don't support them. If there are enough interests, let alone support Sanlang, they dare to treat our Li family." Change it."

"However, are you sure you've thought it through?" Li Shimin asked.

"I've thought about it a long time ago, otherwise I wouldn't have told you, Aye. In fact, I think it's good to read books and live in a place like Qinwangzhuang to rest." Li Chengqian was straightforward. nodded.

"If you really think about it, then we can discuss this matter. There is no rush for this matter. The most important thing is that the third child should not know."

……

At the bow of the boat, Li Ke stood there with a serious face. He kept waving his hands to the people on both sides of the strait. He didn't expect that there were so many people seeing him off.

Hey, I'm so tired. Fortunately, in a while, the boat should leave the vicinity of Chang'an. After entering the Yellow River, there will definitely be no people. There are fewer people on both sides of the river.

"Third brother, why don't you come to the cabin to rest, the number of people here is also small, and they probably won't be able to see you." Chang Le came out from the cabin and asked.

"No, third brother, let's stay a little longer. They came here just to see third brother, and third brother can still be satisfied with this. Changle, if you want to condolences to those soldiers on behalf of the father, you have to do it." That's all, their requirements are actually not high, they just want to see you and what a royal princess looks like."

"They will be satisfied if they can see you, because in their view, this means that the royal family of Tang Dynasty has not forgotten them. In fact, they have never thought of asking for more." Li Ke said softly.
