Chapter 149 The Li family has no loyal ministers!
His Royal Highness King Wei shuddered.
The Southern Border issue is currently the most sensitive issue in the Great Jin Dynasty. There is no one. Before this, this matter has never been brought up on the stage. Everyone may know it well, but they are silent. of.
Even the Emperor Chengde himself had never mentioned this to any prince before.
But now, he actually asked outright.
The seventh prince pondered for a long time, finally looked up at his father, and said respectfully: "Father, my son thinks that things in the southern border must be cautious, and a slight mistake will cause my great Jin to be severely damaged. People with ulterior motives may take the opportunity to attack."
Thirty years ago, when the Great Jin ruled the world, there were not only Jin and Shu in the world, but five countries, one of the five countries of the Great Jin!
In those days, the Marquis of Pingnan, Li Zhijie, led the Pingnan Army to pacify Nanshu, and Chen Guogong, Ye Sheng, led the Dingbei Army to pacify the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The remaining two small countries surrendered without a fight, and the world was unified.
You must know that the Northern Zhou Dynasty was the largest country in the world at that time. If it were not for the incompetence of the Northern Zhou lord, the chance for the Great Jin to dominate the world would not be great. Up to now, although the Northern Territory is not full of rebellions in the Southern Border, there are still some Northern Zhou Dynasty. The power of the remnants is still there. Ye Ming, the son of Chen Guogong Ye Sheng, is still leading the troops in the north.
It's just that the northern land is different from the southern border. The Ye family in Chen Guogong's mansion did not have the same self-respect as the Li family. After Ye Sheng pacified the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he obediently returned to the capital to hand over the military power. .
It is worth mentioning that Ye Sheng, the grandfather of Chen Guogong's mansion, although he is over seventy years old, is still alive today, but he no longer holds a military post. He grows flowers and plants in Chen Guogong's mansion every day.
Ye Lin, the middle-ranking general of Yu Linwei, is Ye Sheng's youngest son, and Ye Mao, the young master Li Xin knew at the Wei palace, is his eldest grandson.
When Li Xin first entered the capital, the surname Ye, who ran into Li Xin on horseback, was his granddaughter.
This Ye Gongye is a figure of the same generation as Li Zhijie, Marquis of Pingnan and Emperor Wu of the Great Jin Dynasty. He is also the only old senior in the army of the Great Jin Dynasty who can overwhelm Li Shen. He is the pillar of the country.
The people with ulterior motives mentioned by the Seventh Prince refer to those remnants of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. If Dajin and the Li family fight to the death, there may be turmoil in the north. With Dajin's current national strength, they may be able to survive, but this After the incident, the Great Jin needed at least two generations of emperors to recuperate before they could restore the scenery of the Chengde Dynasty.
The emperor of Chengde squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Nanjiang does not have the surname of the imperial court. You know this in your heart. This is something that no one can tolerate. How can you bear it?"
This is about national policy, and it may also be related to the candidate for the future successor. His Royal Highness King Wei saw sweat on his forehead and finally gritted his teeth.
"I have to endure it!"
The seventh prince said solemnly: "If you don't wait for the opportunity to act rashly, it is very likely that the end of the society will be overturned. Erchen thinks that this matter must be dealt with from time to time. "
From Emperor Wu to Emperor Chengde in the Great Jin Dynasty, two generations of emperors have endured the southern border for 30 years. Since his father and grandfather have already given the answer, Ji Wen will naturally not hold his neck and be stunned.
The Emperor Chengde took a deep breath, nodded and said, "You are right, if there is no suitable opportunity, it is really difficult to move the southern border."
The emperor stood up from the soft couch, put his hands behind him, and said faintly, "It's just that this opportunity is not waiting for it. If you wait for it, you can only wait for Li Shen's stupid son Li Chun to come to the throne. There may be an opportunity, but Li Shen's body is very good, I probably won't survive him."
Chengde Emperor and Li Shen played together from childhood to adulthood. When they were young, they had the habit of joking with each other. After growing up, Li Shen no longer dared to be presumptuous in front of the Emperor, but Chengde Emperor still called Li Shen "this fellow".
Ji Wen immediately bowed his head and said, "Father Emperor Shengshou has no boundaries!"
The emperor of Chengde sneered: "If I really want a holy life without borders, you debt collectors, why don't you eat me alive?"
Ji Wen was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground and kowtowed: "My son doesn't dare!"
"Okay, get up and talk, there are no outsiders."
The emperor of Chengde sat back on the soft couch, squinted his eyes and said: "You are right, things in the southern border have to wait for a chance. I and the emperor have waited for more than 30 years, but the two generations of the Li family are not leaking. , I haven't waited for an opportunity, and now we have to take the initiative to find an opportunity."
The seventh prince was stunned in his heart, bowed his head and said, "What does the emperor mean... Li Xin?"
The emperor of Chengde nodded: "What do you think of Li Xin?"
The seventh prince still lowered his head and replied, "Li Xin is very smart and has a lot of skills. He is a rare talent."
"He is very similar to his father."
The emperor of Chengde looked calm: "He is as meticulous in his mind, and he is impeccable in his conduct and deeds, but Li Xin is still young, far less sophisticated than his father Li Shen."
The emperor of Chengde turned to look at his son, his eyes bright: "He followed you, didn't he?"
The seventh prince wiped the sweat from his forehead, nodded and said, "It's considered a friendship with the son, but he didn't agree to be a retainer of the Wei palace."
"That's his ambition."
Chengde Emperor said solemnly: "Li Xin is a useful person. I feel more and more that he is the key to breaking the southern border. You have to use him well."
Having said this, His Majesty the Emperor turned his head to look at the Seventh Prince and smiled lightly: "Old Seven, if you and Li Xin solve the problem of the southern border for me, I will be yours in the future."
These words are like spring thunder!
In the past, the throne that was elusive and unattainable could only be used as a throne that no one was talking about. For the first time, it appeared in front of the Seventh Prince!
He knelt down on both knees, his voice trembling: "Father...Father, this son will definitely live up to Father's expectations!"
The emperor of Chengde glanced at him lightly, frowned and said: "Look at your unpromising appearance, you don't have to expect too much in this matter, Li Shen is a very powerful person, I can't do anything about him, you two little guys , not very hopeful."
"You don't have to think too much. Even if this thing can't be done, I won't blame you."
Having said this, the emperor of Chengde suddenly remembered something, turned his head and glanced at the seven princes kneeling on the ground, and said casually: "I have something to remind you, if this thing is done by luck, after it is done, you will You have to hold Li Xin's braid, don't let Li Zhijie get away like the late emperor did."
The emperor of Chengde looked calm, as if he was saying something that should be taken for granted: "If you can't hold it, then kill it as soon as possible. Li Xin will not be inferior to his father and grandfather in the future. The three generations of their Li family have never come out. Loyal minister, Li Xin probably won't be a loyal minister."
The seventh prince knelt on the ground and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you father for the teachings."
"Son... Got it."
