Chapter 276
Li Yong knew that what Li Heng and Li Yu said this time should be the truth, especially Li Yu. Although Li Heng is about to die, he is still young.
In fact, for Li Yu, the safest way is naturally to be the emperor himself, but in this case he could agree to give the position of crown prince to Li. Not to mention anything else, even if he trusts Li Yi, he was very grateful.
In fact, before agreeing to this, Li Yu felt a little conflicted. After all, the result of Li Jiancheng back then was there. It would be impossible to say that he was not afraid at all in his heart.
However, recalling the series of things in Jiannan Road, Li Yu finally completely dispelled his concerns. He knew that if Li Neng really wanted to let the prince die outside, he would have a hundred ways to do this without having to do it. If he died in Jiannan Road, the position of the prince and the position of emperor would only be Li Neng, and no one would ask any questions.
Li Yu did not do that. Instead, he predicted his most assassination in advance and allowed himself to escape. Li Yu believed that such a Li Yu was worthy of giving up the position of crown prince, so he did not hesitate at the end.
Li Neng knew that since the emperor and the prince had expressed their feelings, and they had expressed their sincerity through Li Longji's funeral and the edict issued to the court and the people, it was time to express their feelings.
"You, my father, son, brother, Li Neng refused without a fake example. Since my father and brother are really like this, Li Neng only guarantees one thing, that is, the Tang Dynasty will definitely return to its prosperity in the Kaiyuan period in the hands of me, Li Neng, and even to a higher level! And brother will be the witness of this prosperous era!"
After saying this, Li Qing bowed twice to Li Heng and Li Yu to express his respect.
Although he only promised two things with Li Heng and Li Yu, the promises Li Heng and Li Yu wanted to get were already in these two things.
Li Heng decided to let Li Yu give up the prince's deeds to Li Yan. The main reason was naturally that Li Yu had no confidence to make the Tang Dynasty better. If Li Yan could not make the Tang Dynasty better, then this decision would be wrong.
The second point is that Li Heng was really afraid that the Xuanwu Sect incident would happen again on the two brothers, so he was determined to let Li Yu give up his position to ensure safety. After he was given up, what he was most worried about naturally became whether Li Yu could give up the position of crown prince to Li Yan, but he still couldn't escape death.
Now that Li Yan has made such a promise, Li Heng has let go a lot of it. After all, Li Yan has never lie in his impression of being so old. He will definitely recognize what he did. Moreover, Li Yan has a very tough personality and will never do anything incredible in secret. Li Heng still has a certain degree of confidence in this regard.
"Since that's the case, I'm relieved. In just a few years, you have defeated almost all the foreign enemies. The next thing is actually not difficult. As long as you focus on rectifying the internal affairs of our Tang Dynasty, you will have immediate results. When I became this emperor, I was already old and no longer have the ability and fighting spirit of your young people. Therefore, I have not made any changes to the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty over the years, but there is not no problem in this. As for what will happen in the future, it depends on you!"
At this time, Li Heng's speech began to become real and admitted his inaction in the position of emperor in recent years.
"Don't worry, Datang is in my hands, it will be fine!"
This is exactly the result that Li Heng wanted to see. A smile appeared on Li Yu's face. After all, Li Heng wanted to hear such words from his mouth, but he did not have the courage to say it. Now he said it from the innermost part of Li Yong. In Li Yu's opinion, everyone was very happy.
"Okay! Since that's the case, we will set out tomorrow. I will go to the court in person to go to the court this time, so that the prince will be taken seriously by all the civil and military officials, and give the position of the prince to you. If you think it is inappropriate, you will refuse three times before accepting it. In this way, no matter who it is, you will not say anything."
Obviously, at this time, Li Heng thought a lot about Li Qing's face. After all, if Li Yu gave in and Li Qing accepted what he said at once, it would be a bit fake. It is hard to guarantee that no one would say that Li Qing held his own troops and forced Li Heng and Li Yu to give up the position of crown prince to him on the sickbed.
However, after hearing this, Li Li smiled and shook his head, and then said, "I think my father's body is not suitable for going to the court. It's better to rest here. Otherwise, if someone in the court starts to ignite and affects his father's health, it will be bad. In my opinion, my brother and I will just go with my father's will, and there is no need to refuse again and again. Since I have taken this matter, I will go to the court with openness to explain. If anyone raises an objection in the court, then just come to me. When the matter is handled, my brother and I will come back to report the result of this matter to my father. What do you think, father?"
Obviously, Li Heng meant to help Li Yan suppress the situation, but Li Yan's attitude was also quite firm, that is, he didn't need his father to suppress the situation.
Li Heng's personality is there, and if Li Heng goes to the court by himself, if he is really angry by any eye-opener below, it will be a bit unfair, so Li Heng will never let Li Heng take this risk. Besides, even if Li Heng holds up the situation for him this time, he will not have to face the officials in the Tang Dynasty alone when he really becomes the prince. So in Li Wen's opinion, it would be better to let the storm come early.
"Father, the third brother is right. You can leave this matter to us brothers!"
Li Heng's physical condition at this time was indeed not allowed to say too much in the court, and since Li Yu, who had always been calm, said so, Li Heng naturally stopped insisting.
"Okay! Since that's the case, you two will help me draw up a decree. Tomorrow you two will come with this decree. I think no one will dare to make things difficult for you two!"
So, the father and son decided to settle the matter for the time being, and Li Yan also decided to accompany Li Heng for one night in the Tai Chi Palace.
