When he was in the palace this morning, Li Er said to Changsun Wuji, "There is no better son than a father. I know these sons better than you! Keer loves economics and has no desire to fight for power." Changsun Wuji made Changsun Wuji I really don’t believe it!
After all, Li Ke now occupies an important position, has money and soldiers, and has the blood of the royal families of two dynasties. How could he have no ambition? Even if it doesn't happen now, it will definitely happen in the future, just like General Li Shimin!
But after careful consideration, Changsun Wuji felt that something was not right, because although Li Er won the Xuanwumen coup, this coup made him bear the infamy of killing his brother and imprisoning his father, which can be said to be an eternal pain in his heart!
As a father, Li Er should not want his sons to make the same mistakes as he did. Therefore, since Li Er dares to let Li Ke take charge of the bank and establish the Golden Guard, it means that Li Er is very sure that Li Ke will not They will compete for Li Chengqian's crown prince position. Otherwise, no matter how outstanding Li Ke's ability is, Li Er will not be able to hand over such an important position to him!
But why was Li Er so sure that Li Ke had no intention of competing for the throne? You must know that in this world, people's hearts are the hardest to guess!
Changsun Wuji was puzzled. When he saw his son, he was moved in his heart. He secretly thought that Changsun Chong and Li Ke were classmates. He should be able to learn something from Changsun Chong, but unexpectedly, this kid wasted a long time talking. He didn't say anything, but it almost made him angry to death!
That's all for not getting any news from Li Ke. Changsun Wuji wanted to hear Changsun Chong's views on Li Zexuan. He had offered an olive branch to Li Zexuan, such as investing in Yanhuang Bank, and another example was an iron mine owned by General Changsun's family. It was handed over to Li Zexuan for joint mining, and Li Zexuan was open to all the goodwill he released. But what made Changsun Wuji depressed was that after Li Zexuan accepted his goodwill, there was no feedback at all. It was like "just a light" It’s the same as taking advantage and not doing anything!”
Speaking of which, when his eldest son Wuji met Li Zexuan, he didn’t want Li Zexuan to do anything for him. He just wanted to have a good relationship. However, Li Zexuan’s attitude towards the eldest son’s family was always aloof. This made eldest son Wuji a little confused about Li Zexuan. Attitude.
It can only be said that the current Changsun Wuji is still "too weak". If he waits until the late Zhenguan period or even the Li Ye dynasty, when he is in power, he may not take the upstarts and young talents like Li Zexuan at all. What you can’t get is destroyed!
"Dad, what do you mean by asking that? Don't you want to deal with the mountain leader?"
In the main hall, Changsun Chong suddenly came back from his deep thoughts, looked at Changsun Wuji and asked quickly.
Changsun Wuji frowned and was about to have an attack, but Changsun Chong didn't wait for him to speak and continued: "Dad, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. The mountain leader is unfathomable. Not only is his martial arts extremely high, And the more I get to know him, the more I feel that the knowledge in his head seems to be out of this world! It seems that there is nothing he can't do!"
Changsun Wuji's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but cursed angrily: "I have no enmity with your mountain chief, why did I ever say that I would deal with him?"
However, he couldn't help being slightly surprised in his heart. He didn't expect Changsun Chong to have such a high opinion of Li Zexuan. This boy had only been in the academy for a year and had such an attitude towards Li Zexuan. If time goes by, wouldn't he be such a brat? Want to worship Li Zexuan as a god
"Ah? Dad, you don't plan to deal with the mountain leader? That's good! That's good!"
Upon hearing this, Chang Sun Chong realized that he had misunderstood, and couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment and said.
Changsun Wuji was no longer able to complain about his son. He took a deep breath and said to Changsun: "I want to ask you, what is Li Zexuan's attitude towards the prince, the king of Wei, and the king of Shu? Who does he support? ?”
There is no doubt about Changsun Wuji's personal position. He must unconditionally support Li Chengqian as the crown prince. However, Li Zexuan has always been fascinated by the attitudes of these three princes. Changsun Wuji cannot tell which faction Li Zexuan belongs to.
"this… "
Changsun Chong obviously understood what Changsun Wuji meant by asking this question. He also knew the political stance of the Changsun family. If this question was not answered well, Changsun Wuji might regard Li Zexuan as a political enemy in the future. This is Changsun's family's political stance. There are some situations that you don’t want to see.
"Dad, the relationship between the mountain chief and the prince, the King of Wei, and the king of Shu seems to be very good! When the Yanhuang Academy military training began, the prince, as the prince, went to the academy to participate in the military training. During that time, I saw that the prince and the mountain chief often talked about each other. Laughing, we are almost brothers!
As for the King of Wei and the King of Shu, it goes without saying that they have a relationship with the mountain chief. They all admire the mountain chief’s knowledge from the bottom of their hearts and treat him rudely. The mountain chief also pours money into them. Xiang said that the King of Wei had a profound knowledge of Shanzhang Zhenzhuan in the study of matters. His attainments in engineering were even inferior to many of the gentlemen in the academy, so this trip to the north of the academy was led by the King of Wei himself!
Xiao Ke, on the other hand, has a profound knowledge of the mountain manager in the economic field. When the mountain manager is not at the bank, Xiao Ke basically has the final say in the bank alone! So, father, if you ask me which prince the mountain chief supports, it’s hard to say... "
Changsun Chong thought for a while before speaking.
Hearing this, Changsun Wuji looked a little complicated. In fact, he had heard the news that Changsun Chong said before, but it was all scattered. Now that Changsun Chong put the information together, Changsun Wuji suddenly discovered , Li Zexuan seems to be a "non-party person". He neither supports Li Chengqian unequivocally, nor chooses one of Li Tai and Li Ke to make a desperate move!
"I am only thirty years old. I advise you not to get too involved in the dispute between the crown prince and the crown prince!"
Suddenly, Changsun Wuji recalled what Li Er said in the morning. Combined with Changsun Chong's previous analysis, Changsun Wuji suddenly felt that Li Zexuan was the real master!
Now Li Er is only thirty years old. If nothing happens, he can still sit on the throne for another twenty or thirty years. As a minister, it is too early to "take sides" now, and it will easily arouse the king's suspicion! Like Li Zexuan, not siding with any prince or offending any prince is a truly brilliant move!
At this moment, Changsun Wuji suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. He thought about it and figured it out. He used to be too persistent, persistent and even a little paranoid. He was too worried about Li Chengqian's crown prince being taken away, even more than Li Chengqian. I have to worry about it, as this can easily make Li Er unhappy and suspicious!
"And I think dad, you don't have to worry about someone competing with the prince for the throne. In the past, King Wei did intend to compete with the prince for favor, but after entering Yanhuang Academy, King Wei focused all his attention on engineering research. Now he can't even The palace is too lazy to go back. Dad, do you think he will still compete with the prince for the position of heir apparent
The situation of the King of Shu is similar to that of the King of Wei. Before going to the academy, the King of Shu had no open and secret fights with the prince. After entering the academy, the King of Shu was obsessed with economics and had no intention of competing with the prince for the position of prince! So father, you don’t have to worry about the crown prince’s position as heir apparent! "
At this time, Changsun Chong spoke again.
Changsun Wuji frowned. Although he subconsciously felt that what Changsun Chong said was a bit too mysterious, when he thought about it seriously, he felt that what Changsun Chong said seemed to make sense. After a long silence, Changsun Wuji sighed and murmured He said to himself: "If this is the case, this Yanhuang Academy is really a magical place!"
In fact, Li Zexuan's political stance is very certain. He is not a "non-party person" as Changsun Wuji thought. Li Zexuan undoubtedly supports Li Chengqian as the crown prince, because as far as the current situation of the Tang Dynasty is concerned, only Li Chengqian can be the crown prince. The prince will not cause turmoil within the court!
Historically, Li Chengqian had a violent personality, was arrogant, and kept a male favorite. He was indeed unworthy of being a prince. However, these things only happened after Li Chengqian became an adult. Today, Li Chengqian is generous, diligent, and caring for the people. He has not yet left. On the wrong road, Li Zexuan felt that he was a good candidate for the crown prince! Moreover, Li Zexuan feels that with the intervention and guidance of himself as a time traveler, Li Chengqian will definitely not repeat the mistakes of history, and will be able to become a wise king!
So Li Zexuan supports Li Chengqian as the crown prince!
However, the way he supports Li Chengqian is not as extreme as Changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji is too controlling. Everything he wants must be under his control. He wants Li Chengqian to work hard according to the image of the prince in his mind. , and if someone might threaten Li Chengqian's position as crown prince, Changsun Wuji would do everything possible to get rid of that threat!
Li Zexuan is different. On the one hand, he is guiding Li Chengqian to move forward on the right path. On the other hand, Li Zexuan is guiding the two princes who have threatened Li Chengqian's position as crown prince in history - Li Tai and Li Ke. The two of them stayed by their side, and by discovering their interests and strengths, he guided them to concentrate on research in their respective areas of expertise!
In fact, did Li Tai and Li Ke really care about the position of crown prince before
not necessarily!
How can a half-grown child know so many things? What they care about is probably Li Er's favor!
It is normal for sons to compete for favor in front of their father. That's why Li Tai would fight openly and secretly with Li Chengqian in the palace in the past!
However, when the two of them discover the door to another world, they will realize how naive and boring they were before, and they will devote more energy to the fields that they are really interested in!
Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke are actually moving in the direction envisioned by Li Zexuan, and their achievements are very good. Of course, the main factor for this is Li Tai and Li Ke's talents in engineering and economics. The score is really high, otherwise Li Zexuan would be too clever to make a meal without straw!
Therefore, compared to Changsun Wuji, Li Zexuan's method of supporting Li Chengqian was not simply to suppress or support. In fact, he helped Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke!
Who says that when two tigers fight, one of them must be injured? Can’t it be a win-win or multiple wins? Isn't it good to have brotherly harmony like this
Li Er's three sons are actually very talented. If these three brothers can unite and be harmonious and treat the outside world as one, it will definitely be a great blessing for the millions of people in the Tang Dynasty!
For countries other than the Tang Dynasty, it is definitely not a blessing, it is a nightmare!
… … … … … … …
The news of Anshuncai's arrest soon spread to the ears of many people.
Kang Fuliang and others who had gone to Qiquge New Workshop with An Shuncai were all gathered in the main hall of An Mansion at this moment. Not only them, but also the famous businessmen of the nine surnames Hu in Chang'an City, especially the merchants of Kang Guo and An Guo. They are all gathered here at this moment.
It was Anshun who summoned them here!
The more than 10,000 yuan in benefits that Anshun gave to Ma Cheng earlier was "crowdfunded" by these people. After all, the ban on Yanhuang Bank had great consequences for Anguo and Kangguo merchants who were doing business in the Tang Dynasty. As long as the bank's ban can be lifted, they are still willing to pay!
"It's not good! It's not good! My master was arrested at the Anshun Tea House!"
At this time, a boy ran in and said breathlessly.
The person who came was none other than the boy from Anshun Tea House.
Anshun Tea House is in the East Market of Chang'an City, while Anfu is in the south of Chang'an City. The distance between the two places is still a bit far, so the boy only rushed to Anfu to report the news.
"What?"
Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard this. Kang Fuliang stood up and said, "What did you say? Boss An was taken away? Can you clearly see who the other person is?"
"Listen to the shopkeeper... the other party is probably from the Changsun family!"
The boy gasped for breath, raised his head and replied.
"What? People from Changsun Mansion?"
Kang Fuliang's expression changed, and he said with some despair: "It's over! Could it be that Duke Zhao saw through Boss An's plan, so he sent someone to arrest Boss An?"
When the others heard this, their expressions changed instantly.
Everyone present knew something about Anshuncai's plan to bribe Ma Cheng and mediate the ban on Yanhuang Bank, otherwise they would not be willing to pay for it.
"I have something important to do at home, so I'll take my leave now!"
At this time, a Hu businessman sitting at the bottom suddenly stood up and raised his hands to Kang Fuliang and others.
Now that Changsun Wuji has arrested An Shuncai, it means that the Changsun family is likely to attack the An family next. They no longer care about the ban on Yanhuang Bank. At this time, for them, it is more important to protect themselves!
Never have anything to do with Anshuncai in the car!
"I just remembered that my wife is giving birth today, so I'm leaving now!"
There was the first one, and then there was the second one. Almost as soon as the first Hu Shang finished speaking, another Hu Shang stood up and clasped his fists.
"If I get into trouble at home, I'll go back first!"
"Down here..."
After a while, most of the Hu merchants in the main hall left, leaving only Kang Fuliang and others who had a good relationship with Anshuncai.
