Chapter 443: How to choose

Xue Ping said it was very concealed.

But the queen still understood.

She may be the most vulnerable queen since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but this does not mean that he does not have basic political wisdom. After all, she was born in a noble family in Guanlong, and was never unfamiliar with politics since childhood.

When Emperor Li Yan was the crown prince, who would marry the crown princess was definitely the biggest political transaction at that time. The court was weak, and the powerful clans were unwilling to marry their daughters to the emperor at this time to form a de facto political alliance, and there were quite a lot of forces who were unwilling to obtain strong foreign aid by marrying their wives.

After choosing, she finally became the emperor's wife. Although she belonged to the Guanlong nobles, her family had declined and had no influence in politics except for a name. More importantly, her family was poor, and even if she became the queen, she could not support a powerful relative.

Over the years, she has been living cautiously. In addition to giving birth to a son for the emperor, her presence is extremely low.

But now, it's time for her to make a decision.

Li Ze has many choices.

Whether it is Xue Ping or Tian Lingzi, they all made it clear. He did not necessarily have to choose to be loyal to the royal family. With his current strength, it is more than enough to be a king of northern land. He unified the northern land and confronted Zhu Wen. If he continues for a long time, he may not have no chance to defeat Zhu Wen.

But for the royal family, there is no choice now.

Han Qi may be loyal to the court, but is he capable of protecting the emperor?

There is nothing at all. It would be easy if Li Ze wanted to attack him. Now Li Yi's tyrant Zhang Jia has already defeated Shuozhou. And what Han Qi has done now is just to become Li Ze's opposition in the name of the court, and achieve his own goals with balanced political power.

This is not wrong in itself. But he got the time wrong.

After all, Li Ze is still a young man who is only twenty years old. What Xue Ping said now Li Ze himself doesn’t know what he wants to do, this is the most dangerous thing.

If you don’t know, it means unpredictable.

Unpredictable means that he may make actions that shock the world at any time.

Judging from Li Ze's past behavior, this person can definitely do many decisive things.

Just like when he burned Texas with fire.

Forced Li Ze to become a capable minister in governing the world, rather than pushing him in the opposite direction, Xue Ping's last words kept ringing in the queen's ears.

I don't know how long it took, the queen stood up, tidied up her clothes and buns, and got up toward Li Yan's bedroom.

"Your Majesty looks great today." Sitting at the head of the bed, the queen looked at Li Yan with a smile.

Li Yan nodded slightly: "But thank you for your hard work. You have never done these things before, but now you have to deal with these ministers directly. These people, one by one, are not too busy to save money."

"Your Majesty is too worried." The queen smiled and said, "Whether it is Xue, Shizhong Tian, ​​or General Qin, they are all the most loyal ministers of Your Majesty!"

"But there are people like Han Qi, Gao Lei, Li Ze!" Li Yan half-closed his eyes, "They each have their own demands and their own interests, which is really difficult to deal with."

"Don't worry, your majesty, everything is fine. Although I'm a little tired, I can still hold on." The queen tucked the quilt for Li Yan.

"Have Li Ze not entered Huguan yet?"

"He is handling Mrs. Wang's funeral, saying that he is a mourning person. He will not come to see His Majesty for the time being. When everything is done, we will come to see His Majesty again."

"He is resentful. Has the battle in Luzhou not begun yet?" Li Yan coughed.

"Everything is in preparation. General Qin is worried about these things. It's just in the past two days that the general attack is about to begin. Your Majesty, after destroying the rebels in Luzhou, where are you going to temporarily station? "

"Where can you go? Can you still have a choice?" Li Yan opened his eyes and glanced at the queen.

"There are some rumors below, saying that Taiyuan is also a good choice!" said the queen.

Li Yan shook his head: "I'm confused. If you find out who is saying these words, you should kill them immediately. Apart from Wuyi, we have no other place to go. If you really want to go to Taiyuan, it would be a disaster Yishi."

"Many people are not relieved by Li Ze, saying that he is too domineering. His Majesty really wants to go to Wuyi, but I am afraid he will suffer."

"The current plan is beyond grievances and seeking fullness, temporarily settle down, and slowly plan, are there any other choices?" Li Yan smiled bitterly: "Only when we go to Wuyi to settle down, there are people like Xue Ping and Tian Lingzi inside, those who are loyal as General Qin outside, and those who have other demands but are still loyal ministers of the Tang Dynasty can truly form a paper balance with Li Ze. Only in this way can the Tang Dynasty slowly regain the momentum bit by bit. No need to think about other thoughts, that is the way to die."

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, I understand." The queen nodded. "Your Majesty, please rest. I will go and see Ke'er. This child has become much more sensible all of a sudden. He studied hard every day and was not idle for a day!"

"Suffering always makes people grow." Li Yan nodded comfortably: "My body is getting worse and worse. I am afraid that I will not see the day when the Tang Dynasty revives. This hope can only be placed on him, and fortunately he is still striving for success."

"Your Majesty is at ease. Your health will always get better and better. When you settle down in Wuyi, you will be invited to consult a famous doctor. I heard that Jin Yuan of Wuyi is a great master, and he is more skilled than an imperial doctor!"

"Let's talk about it then!" Li Yan closed his eyes and said in a daze.

"Your Majesty, please rest!" The queen stood at the head of the bed, staring at Li Yan who was sleeping deeply, and tears suddenly came down from the corner of her eyes. After a long time, she turned around and left the room.

Under the candlelight, Prince Li Ke was still sitting upright in front of the table and writing big characters. Although he was still young, the characters he wrote had a bit of temperament. Hearing the footsteps, he turned around and saw the queen coming in. Li Ke quickly slipped off the chair and saluted the queen with his hands.

However, the queen was abnormal and pulled Li Ke in front of her and sat on the chair. She looked up and down at Li Ke. When she saw Li Ke inexplicably, she even hugged Li Ke in her arms with a smile, hugged him and sat on her knees.

"My mother!" The queen's extra intimate behavior made Li Ke feel a little nervous.

"Ke'er's handwriting is getting better and better." After reading the big words, the queen praised it without saying a word. "Especially during this period, the progress has been particularly great."

"Thank you, my mother, for your compliment." Li Ke smiled proudly.

"However, it is good to write well, but more importantly, you need to read more books, especially history books, and you must read more and think more. There is no good teacher to teach you now. When you settle down in the future, your father will definitely find a good teacher for you. By the way, what do you think of Mr. Xue?" said the queen.

"My son follows the arrangements of his father and mother." Li Ke said.

"You are the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, and you must learn to make your own decisions!" The queen smiled and said, "You can't follow the crowd. You will be whatever others say. You must have your own opinions."

"yes."

"This is what you need to learn more about General Qianniuwei Li Ze. I heard that at your age, he had already started planning to do business and make money. He had a huge wealth in his early ten years old. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he became a stolen figure in the north. Now he is only twenty years old, he has become the king of the north." The queen looked out the window and said slowly.

"My mother, are you worried about the general?" Li Ke asked softly.

"Why did Ke'er say that?"

"It has been almost twenty days since the general came to Huguan, but he has not seen him yet and has paid homage to his father and mother." Li Ke said: "This is very abnormal in itself. Is it because of Mrs. Wang?"

"The general holds multiple positions and is now experiencing the pain of losing his mother. Naturally, things are complicated. Once everything is arranged, he will naturally come to the gate to pay homage to your father." The queen said softly.

"It can be seen that my father is not the top priority?" Li Ke was a little puzzled.

"That was before." The queen was a little sad: "It's already very good to be like this now."

"My mother, is General Li a loyal minister?"

"What do you think?"

"My son is also very confused. He said he is not a loyal minister. Over the years, he has always been respectful to the court. When we were desperate, he was willing to accept us and say he is a loyal minister. But now his actions have made me very confused. There has never been such a thing written in the book, so I don't have any questions to ask others."

The queen laughed: "Ke'er, you need to read the book carefully. You should carefully chew the meaning of it. Sometimes a common and ordinary sentence contains countless winds and thunders. Can a treacherous minister or a loyal minister be seen above one thing? Let me tell you about the previous dynasty."

"Okay, Ke'er likes to listen to her mother telling stories the most." Li Ke cheered.

"In the previous dynasty, there was a treacherous minister who was disliked by the world. He took power in the court, forced the emperor and threatened the ministers. It can be said that he had no king and father to the extreme, but when he was in power, the country was fair. After he died, the emperor confiscated his home, and his family only had more than a hundred coins of copper coins. The house he lived in was also given to him by the court. In addition, he had no spare money."

"ah?"

"There is another person who is praised by the world. He is said to be a loyal minister, a pure minister, a good minister. He is humble and polite to his superiors, and is polite to his subordinates. The king is relieved and his ministers are supported by his ministers. However, during his reign, the country was full of war and rebelled everywhere. When he retired and retired, there were as many as thousands of carriages transporting goods to his hometown, and it took more than a month to transport them."

"How could this be the case?" Li Ke was a little confused.
