When she left Tai Chi Palace, Pei Ji's thoughts became heavier--Li Yuan actually had the idea of ​​abdicating.

If he had a friendly relationship with Li Shimin, if Li Shimin was not planning to weaken the aristocratic family, he would have enjoyed it.

Li Yuan is old and does not have the talent of a king of a country, but Li Yuan can guarantee his wealth and glory. Now that Li Yuan is about to abdicate, his position is even more precarious.

He has few choices.

"Go to the East Palace!"

If Li Yuan did not have the intention to retreat, he would not be in a hurry to show off with Li Shimin. If Li Yuan did not have the intention to retreat, he would still think of a countermeasure with the clan leaders.

But now it's different, Li Yuan is about to retreat. He can't care whether those families die or live.

There seemed to be guests in the East Palace before, and Li Shimin sat opposite Pei Ji with a flushed face.

A lot of languages ​​were organized along the way, and when facing Li Shimin, Pei Ji didn't know where to start.

However, Li Shimin was very excited. He was talking about cement roads and cement bridges paved with the grand occasion of the Tang Dynasty.

Pei Ji's heart became more and more bitter.

Whether it is a large family or a local tyrant, the living environment is beyond the reach of imperial power.

It seems that Li Shimin only talks about the convenience of transportation, but the most impact on the convenience of this convenience and convenience are those families with all their power.

"This is the beginning of his weakening of the aristocratic family~~~"

Starting with the construction of roads, then using business to destroy Confucianism. Li Shimin broke two of them with four means of protecting the family by wavering. What’s next...

What he feared was not Li Shimin's method, but Li Shimin's age.

No matter what means Li Shimin uses, there will always be a way to deal with it. But he is less than 30 years old and has obtained new health preservation techniques. In the next forty years, he will have countless opportunities to use his ideas.

If this is not the case, would he be willing to bow his head?

He is also old, the kind of old that is too powerless.

He originally thought that if we were to govern a country, we could just sort out the imperial power, the distribution of official power and clan power, and the balance of power among various families in the court. Other things like equalization of land, education, taxation, etc. are all the last quarters.

But Li Shimin came from the opposite side.

Not only did he start to participate in political affairs from the details, but he also had new ideas.

His attitude towards the aristocratic family is not respect but suppression.

Back then, Cui, Lu, Zheng and Wang were able to become the "Four Clans" not only because they were prominent "old Wei and Jin Dynasties", but also because of their special relationship with the powerful minister Li Chong and their marriage with the royal family. Before that, the Northern Wei royal family had eliminated a group of families that were not loyal enough.

Therefore, after the Taihe Reform, a political marriage group with the royal family as the axis and marriage as the link, including the Han people's "four surnames" and the "eight surnames of honor" and the generation of "eight surnames of honor" gradually formed, and a new clan order was established.

Now, Li Shimin's purpose is the same as that of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the measures he adopted... It seems soft now, but when he sits in that position and becomes the king of a country, who can guarantee that he will not take a fierce approach?

He used to think there would be a buffering time, but now, there is not much time left.

He could even imagine that Li Shimin suppressed the old family while supporting the rise of new powerful people. In this process, it only depends on who can express his loyalty to Li Shimin.

Those who are rebellious will inevitably be challenged by the royal family and emerging powerful people. Once they fall down, the rights they originally possess will be divided up and their bodies will be left untold.

Pei cannot be the one who falls, he must not be!

Not only can we not fall down, but we must also become the new "four surnames"!

Although he had visited the East Palace once late at night before and said he was loyal to Li Shimin. But he just said that he did not do anything next. In Li Shimin's opinion, this was his lack of sincerity and was "deceiving the king".

Perhaps Li Shimin thought that after he received help from the leaders of various tribes gathered in Chang'an, he regretted it again.

So, he must do it again and ask Li Shimin to believe that his allegiance is sincere.

............

If he had known this, he shouldn't have ignored Yin Qingfeng at the beginning.

Although Yin Qingfeng was the pawn of Li Shimin on the surface, Li Chengqian lived in Wutong Villa. The meaning of this shows that he was Li Shimin's most important figure in the court and future. Li Shimin wanted to train him to become the most trusted minister.

He shouldn't ignore the warrior.

The Warrior must have been the first person to see the joints clearly and make a choice. He would rather resign from office than show his loyalty to Li Shimin. He would rather be ridiculed as a child than be humiliated for the rise of the Wu family.

Only now do I realize that Samurai is truly the most speculative businessman.

Facing Li Shimin, he regretted it again, and he should go to Yin Qingfeng first.

Whether it is to move him to value profit or to understand him with family affection, he must first soothe Yin Qingfeng, and then communicate with Li Shimin first, and then he will negotiate terms with Li Shimin himself.

It's too late now, so I can only passively accept the conditions offered by Li Shimin.

After Li Shimin finished talking about the topic of roads and bridges, his enthusiasm for talks remained unchanged. Then he talked about the benefits of new farming, and then talked about his ideas about the Turks.

He believed that Yin Qingfeng could build a cement bridge, but only by truly seeing and walking on the cement bridge could he be sure that Yin Qingfeng's idea was right.

He was flattered on the bridge. With joy, he returned to the East Palace to hold a banquet. If Pei Ji hadn't arrived, he would have been drinking.

Although he did not make any more guesses about Pei Ji's arrival, if Pei Ji was able to come to visit, he could explain some problems.

Pei Ji was not only the leader of all officials, but also the backbone of the various families' forces in the court. His attitude largely represented the trend of all officials in the court.

After joining the franchise, not only the warriors were busy, but he also kept paying attention. Although Yin Qingfeng advised him not to try to weaken the aristocratic families, he still wanted to know how big the aristocratic families who were proud of their inheritance of poetry and books were when facing money.

He has learned a lesson now: if you can solve it with money, there is no need to use force, if you can solve it with wisdom, there is no need to make a big move.

Yin Qingfeng stopped weakening the plan, but the beginning of this plan was to join the franchise. The more people joined, the more successful Yin Qingfeng's original plan could be completed.

He wants to observe all this and get experience from it. He doesn't want to think of Yin Qingfeng the first thing he thinks of whenever he encounters something.

He saw Pei Ji's silence, stopped the topic, and looked at Pei Ji.

He stretched his head and shrank his head and also slashed his head. Since he had already sat opposite Li Shimin, Pei Ji had to throw away his annoyance and said, "I am here to be entrusted by the saint. The saint said that he intended to abdicate the throne to the crown prince."

Li Shimin was stunned.

Completely stunned.

He didn't care about the position in the hall, and he also thought about how to sit on it. But... abdicate?

Li Shimin clenched his fists in secret and said calmly: "If it is not the Duke of Wei, what advice should he advise?"

Pei Ji replied: "I will not advise the prince to accept the abdication."

Li Shimin was stunned again. His original intention was to hear Pei Ji say that he would cooperate with Li Yuan and the three of them, and then sing a good show of a kind father, a filial son, and a filial official, and advise the officials. But Pei Ji actually said that he would not accept it?

"Oh~~~~~~What is the reason for Duke of Wei?"

Pei Ji said cautiously: "The people of the country know that Li Jiancheng has been deposed, but they think there has been no news about him because he was murdered by the prince.

Li Jiancheng is dead, and the saint abdicates within half a year. In addition, the death of King Yuanji of Qi before, the people of the country will come to a conclusion: the prince killed his brother and forced the saint to abdicate the throne..."

Li Shimin was silent.

Although he did not do any of the three things Pei Ji said, he could not control public opinion, especially when various families gathered in Chang'an.

"Then...what advice does the Duke of Wei have?"

Pei Ji replied: "Although the saint has the intention of retreating from peace and prosperity, it is okay to do it for a few more years, and the affairs of the prince will be handed over to the prince. At least two to three years later, a ceremony of abdication will be held."

Li Shimin nodded.

As long as he controls the matter, he will not rush to sit in that position.
Chapter completed!
