Chapter 153: Nature is really hard to move(2/3)
"Father, that's not something that the son minister needs to consider. Father, you said at the beginning that the son minister has not changed for so many years." The third prince also laughed and said, "What the son minister needs to consider is to become stronger."
The emperor seemed a little satisfied. He nodded slowly and said, "I don't care about Shangguan Zhaoyi's affairs, but the parents and daughter of Pei Guogong... You should not neglect it, but I don't know if you can understand why I want to take such a move?"
"My son dares to guess."
The third prince said seriously: "At least four years ago, the father began to regain the military power of Pei's family. Then he borrowed several defeats from the border army and began to transfer the generals of Pei's family back to their idle positions. On the surface, this gives people the feeling that the father naturally wants to hold some military power, but the son-in-law thinks that the father will not be so superficial."
The emperor smiled slightly, waved his hand, and signaled the third prince to continue.
The third prince suddenly became a little bolder and said, "I am sure my father will not be so superficial, but I can't understand what big things my father wants to do, but suddenly I heard the news that Pei wanted to marry me, Li, suddenly I figured it out. It seems that my father is naturally appeaseing Pei, but I think that the previous things, my father, you must have discussed with the Duke of Pei. Pei is cooperating with the hard work."
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and his eyes flashed, "You have made some progress in strategy."
The third prince knew that he had guessed correctly and immediately grinned, "The father has put in so much effort to transfer the generals of Pei's family back. I'm afraid that the next step is to get a suitable opportunity to make a major change in the military towns around Chang'an."
Hearing this, the emperor seemed to be out of interest. He stood up and walked out of the hall, and said coldly: "You can go to practice well. According to the news I know, Pei Yunqi and the young man named Gu Ningxi will set off from Youzhou tomorrow."
The third prince patted his butt and left.
This is certainly not a secret to him.
Today, it is a big test for him.
He felt that he was doing well.
After the third prince walked away, the eunuch, who was called the great companion by the emperor, appeared in front of the emperor.
The emperor sighed.
"This third brother is just like the eldest brother. Although it is pretty good, it's still a little bit of a meaning in the end."
The eunuch who he called the Great Companion was real name Gao Yuanyi. He was the emperor's playmate when he was young. Over the years, no one in Chang'an City understood the emperor's thoughts better than him.
So he smiled and said, "That is, the saints always compare them with the saints."
"How can one generation be worse than another?"
The emperor's voice suddenly became colder, "The third brother is always a little self-righteous, but he is a qualified Li family, the second brother and the sixth brother. He either stays by and waits to die, or just wants to enjoy it and has no intention. Now the fifth brother looks a little more pleasing."
Gao Yuanyi lowered his head slightly, his face changed no matter how he was.
He had already expected the emperor to think this way.
This is not that Lao Wu has become pleasing to the eyes, but that Lao Wu is getting close to those people now, and the emperor's temperament is still the same as before. The lifeblood of Xuanjia is still in the hands of those people. He subconsciously thought about reconciling this matter through Lao Wu.
"The Wu Lao has always been pretty good, but he always wanted to be an idle prince, but he was afraid of being crushed to death." Of course, he knew how to follow the emperor's wishes. After pondering slightly, he continued, "When Li clan should let him do his best in the past few years, he still did his best."
"He's the only chance." The emperor was in a slightly better mood. "When he came back, let him choose a place and build a house for him."
Gao Yuanyi's heart was slightly shocked.
This is equivalent to the future royal palace, which means that it can protect the fifth prince's head, but in this way, the fifth prince will completely withdraw from the future emperor's competition.
The emperor wanted to use the fifth prince, but because he was too close to Green Eyes, the emperor directly deprived him of the possibility of inheriting the throne in the future.
This kind of venting anger and such a harsh method was not the emperor's previous behavior.
He intuitively felt that there would be major changes.
Sure enough, he heard the emperor say slowly, "Now even the third brother has seen our plan. It seems that this matter can only be done quickly, not slow. At the latest, the change of generals in the military towns around Chang'an will be completed."
Gao Yuanyi took a deep breath, without saying a word, but nodded.
After walking out of Penglai Island, he finally sighed and gave up his plan to persuade the emperor.
He could not agree with the emperor's simple and straightforward approach to treating the fifth prince.
In his opinion, the practice of excluding the fifth prince from Li's true core circle will eventually lead to a result, that is, pushing the green eyes further.
He also knew very well that the emperor did this because at first he suspected that Green Eyes were the descendant of the previous generation of Degenerate Guan Taoist.
Even though this possibility has been ruled out now, the emperor's dislike has continued.
This is his weakness in temperament.
Just like the sixth prince, even if the emperor figured it out afterwards, it actually makes no sense to dislike it, but the dislike in his heart is difficult to turn it into liking again.
He really wanted to remind the emperor that at this critical moment, Green Eyes happened to come to Chang'an, and it was very dangerous to treat the fifth prince and Green Eyes with this style.
A giant ship that travels smoothly, when there is no wind and waves, hitting a reef will at most break a hole and can have the opportunity to repair it.
But if you hit a hole and encounter a huge storm, this giant ship that usually looks like it will not overturn may really overturn.
However, in the midst of entanglement, as the emperor's companion, he clearly realized that his advice would probably be unpleasant. The more intimate he was, the more likely he would gradually become distant because of an insignificant little thing that could not obey his wishes.
He can't take this risk.
Compared with the risk of hitting a reef, the cooperation between the helmsman and the sail controller is more important.
He could not have any other thoughts, he had to do his best to act according to the emperor's ideas.
...
"If you come to see me, what are you doing with such a big bag?"
At the same time, in the Sixth Prince's bedroom, the Sixth Prince looked at Princess An Xing, who was following four palace servants, and frowned.
These four palace ladies seemed to be escaping, with large bags of small bags hanging on them.
Princess Anxing smiled immediately after hearing this, "My Sixth Brother is so smart, can't you guess it?"
"I'm going to set off soon?" The Sixth Prince looked at the sky behind her and sighed in his heart, knowing that one more person could speak in the palace soon.
"I'll leave tomorrow." Princess Anxing became serious. "Although it's something that I can't take away, it's not useless rags. Maybe it's some use to Brother Six."
The sixth prince was silent for a while and said, "It is difficult to leave at this time to get to Tubo."
"What road can be easier to walk than the road in the palace?" Princess Anxing smiled faintly, "This is the nature of his father. Once he has something to do in his heart, he will not want to delay it for a day."
"I don't understand why he has to deal with Changsun!"
The sixth prince suddenly became a little angry and said with a grim expression: "Although Changsun's power is important, Changsun Wuji always likes to compete for power with his father for any matters, he is at most trying to make some profits for these families. He also works hard for matters related to the entire Tang Dynasty. Moreover, he is also a scheming person and respects the throne. No matter how much power he robs, he only wants to transform the Tang Dynasty according to his own ideas, and he will not rebel! What's more, half of the power of Changsun's family comes from Changsun Wuji's connections and power. As long as Changsun Wuji dies, Changsun and other families will naturally not be able to compete with Li. How old is Changsun Wuji, how old is his father? After more than ten years, Changsun Wuji is so old that he is old. Does Changsun Wuji have the energy and spirit of the moment?"
"I know you can guess it." Princess Anxing said calmly: "Maybe he was afraid that Changsun Wuji and the lineage of the previous Dai Daozi were together? But it was more likely that it was because of his temperament. People like him like to kill dragons in the storm. How could he wait for Changsun Wuji to die? If he had not had such a brave and courageous mind, he would not have won the strangle of the previous Li family and sat on the dragon throne."
The Sixth Prince's face looked ugly, but his breathing slowly calmed down.
"After all, I still feel that the lineage of Dai Daozi in the Depravity View was too powerful." He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "As soon as the four-eared demon cat appeared, he was distracted unconsciously and was in a hurry to do anything. Now he wanted to replace all the important generals of the military towns around Chang'an with his own people at the fastest speed to avoid mutiny. But Changsun Wuji is much smarter than us, and who knows how much benefits he can get from this. Originally, everyone was working step by step, and no one could gain the upper hand, and it was under the situation where Changsun Wuji gave him some face. But his chaos..."
Speaking of this, the Sixth Prince was too lazy to say anything, but just kept sneering.
The reason why he fell out of favor and was confined was not because his previous thoughts about Changsun were contrary to the emperor.
In the mind of his father, he was the evil son who was crooked out of the Li family.
Princess Anxing knew that the sixth prince felt that the emperor could not take advantage of it, but she might have lost her wife and soldiers. However, she shook her head and said softly: "Use extraordinary means to use extraordinary methods, and his style has not changed."
The Sixth Prince's body shook, and he looked at Princess An Xing with a sharp look in an instant, "What do you know?"
"He asked me to go to Tubo, but he would look down on Tubo for a while, just to let Tubo not cause trouble for him during this period." Princess Anxing said calmly, "I'm just a guess, because just two days ago, my man heard a little chat with his father and Gao Da's companion. He said that he didn't know what Cui's behavior was. He could also give the benefits that Cui could give to the Uighurs, and he could give even greater when it was appropriate."
The sixth prince narrowed his eyes slightly.
Most people will think that it is hidden when Princess An Xing says this, but for him, this is already a clear matter.
The temperament will not change.
Habitual behavior will not change.
A large part of the reason why he, the emperor, was able to finally take over the throne because he used the power of the Turks.
The Turks were very powerful back then, and his humble secret note made the Turks feel excited.
Now Tubo will not be able to use it for a while, so he will rely on the power of the Uighurs.
But the Uighurs today are incomparable to the Turks back then.
With the Turkic mirror, the Uighurs who grew up stepping on the ruins of the Turkic people, now fully understand the cunning of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
Their internal structure is much more united now than the Turks in the past.
In the past, the Turks were still imperial courts formed by tribes, but now the Uighurs are already a real empire, a giant who is eyeing the Tang Dynasty.
Is it still possible to play the same trick against the Turks back then?
He can only say that he admires the confidence of the emperor.
"After I arrive in Tubo, I will find a way to pass on a copy of the news to you." Princess Anxing said with a smile.
The Sixth Prince knew that today was a real farewell.
Once this girl goes to Tubo, I don’t know if she will meet again in this life.
He took a deep breath again and stared at Princess Anxing's eyebrows, as if he wanted to remember her at this moment.
"Your word is also very interesting," he said at the same time.
Princess Anxing smiled and said, "I will find a way to pass on my fifth brother."
"I can understand you if you pass it on to my fifth brother. After all, he is like an outsider now, and he stays with Pei Yunqi and Luye, so his future path is relatively wide." The Sixth Prince said seriously: "But what do you mean by choosing me in this palace?"
"There is a great opportunity. Anyway, my father just doesn't like you because your opinion is not in line with him. He will not be interested in killing you. No matter how bad you are, it will be like this. When the storm is on, I think you will have a chance to show off your strength." Princess Anxing suddenly smiled a little brighter, "But even if you can't wait for the opportunity to show off your strength, it's nothing. I chose you and the fifth brother because you both have your own principles. Also, you are the kind of people who really care about the Li family of the Tang Dynasty at the critical moment. If I have trouble in Tubo, I'm afraid other brothers will not be reliable, and you two are willing to help."
The Sixth Prince is not humble either.
