Chapter 686: Inherit the meaning of Qian

For Li Chengqian, he had a very comfortable time.

Although he has not yet sat on the dragon throne and became the emperor of the Nine Five of the Tang Dynasty, he was able to accept court officials in Liangyi Hall every day, which greatly satisfied his vanity. The only thing he was dissatisfied with was that his uncle Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng controlled the government affairs, and he had almost no decision-making power, and he could only obediently agree to the decisions they made.

However, even so, he felt much more comfortable. Especially when Li Ke walked away from the northwest and Li Tai stayed in the door, he felt no pressure in his heart and was comforted mentally.

However, when the report of Li Shimin's Liaodong Battle was sent to Chang'an, Li Chengqian's dream was shattered. He suddenly realized that he was just a substitute, a substitute for his father. When he returned triumphantly, he had nothing to do and would still be suppressed by Li Ke and Li Tai.

"No - absolutely not like this!" Li Chengqian roared. He didn't want to go back to his original life. He was already used to his current life. He was flattered by court officials and flattered by eunuchs and maids in the palace.

what to do?

Li Chengqian was so distressed that how could he keep all this in front of him?

Suddenly, a trace of haze flashed in his eyes. Then, he murmured timidly again, "No, absolutely not, you can't do this!"

"Chengqian, what are you talking about?" The person who spoke was Changsun Wuji, Li Shimin was in charge of the army, and Li Chengqian was regent. The palace is now like his backyard. He can enter and exit freely without reporting.

"Uncle, when will your father return to Chang'an?" Li Chengqian asked expectantly.

"The emperor's northern expedition to Goryeo seems not as smooth as he imagined." Changsun Wuji said, "With the emperor's character, it is estimated that it will not be possible to return to Chang'an in a short time."

"Really?" Li Chengqian said happily.

"What's true?" Changsun Wuji said unhappily, "Chengqian, what are you thinking?"

"Uncle--" Li Chengqian did not dare to look at Changsun Wuji in front of him and whispered, "I don't think about anything--I'm just, my father returns to Chang'an, then I'll--"

He said this and then he ended abruptly.

Changsun Wuji didn't say anything, but just stared at Li Chengqian coldly.

"Chengqian, you don't have to think about anything. Isn't there any uncle?" Changsun Wuji saw his nephew's timid Mo Yang and comforted him in a low voice, "When the emperor is not in Chang'an, you must learn from his uncle to handle the national affairs well. When the emperor returns to the court, he will definitely be very happy."

"Thank you uncle!" Li Chengqian said timidly.

"Also, you can get familiar with the government affairs first, and look at the memorials from various places and the replies of the six ministries to the memorials. In terms of military affairs, you should go to the military camp in person to contact the generals and establish good relationships with them. Especially the current Minister of War, Hou Junji, although he does not command the troops, his subordinates mostly serve in the army. You must not ignore his abilities." Changsun Wuji said sternly.

"Don't worry, uncle, Chengqian understands!" Li Chengqian agreed.

"Yeah——" Changsun Wuji left Li Chengqian with satisfaction and strode out of Liangyi Hall.

However, while walking in the royal forest garden, he recalled what Li Chengqian had just said: I didn't think about anything - I just, my father returned to Chang'an, then I would--. Changsun Wuji knew his nephew very well, and Changsun Wuji also understood what he meant just now.

However, Changsun Wuji never thought about anything from beginning to end. He dared not think about it, nor could he think about it.

However, Li Chengqian had too much shock to him today. Thinking of his timid appearance just now and his obedience to his own words, Changsun Wuji suddenly had the same thought in his heart. His heart was pounding.

If it weren't for the extraordinary determination that had been tempered in the center of the power storm for more than ten years, Changsun Wuji would probably be unable to control his emotions. The attention he paid to Li Shimin's current situation, and the root cause of Li Ke's huge power and the solution, so he told Li Shimin to personally conquer Goryeo. The purpose of his doing this was to make a crack in the relationship between Li Ke and Li Shimin through this northern expedition, and he would use it from it, kick Li Ke out of the power center of the Tang Dynasty, and solve his black guard army.

However, what he did not expect was that Li Shimin's northern expedition to Goryeo would be so unsuccessful. He knew Li Shimin's character. Since he vowed to destroy Goryeo before he would return to Chang'an, based on the current situation of the war, he could not return to Chang'an for a while.

Isn't this an opportunity?

When Changsun Wuji thought of this, he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe. After a short journey back home, he almost fell apart. He couldn't lie down at night and could not stop during the day. In addition to running around in all directions to deal with various urgent tasks, he thought about this problem all day long. In the past ten days, a vigorous Changsun Wuji suddenly turned into a thin man with a braided and haggard hair. He ran around in a camp carriage like an empty bucket every day, which attracted the emotion and praise of the soldiers and ministers.

I don't know how many times, Changsun Wuji, who was exhausted, had such a strange thought in his heart. However, whenever he flashed this idea, he always thought of Li Chengqian's timidity towards him. This was a surprise that flashed through his heart and his heart was full of vitality.

Immediately, Changsun Wuji began to frequently mobilize the army and strengthen the city defense of Chang'an City.

Changsun Wuji had absolute power to mobilize the remaining two guards in Chang'an City. Because Changsun Shunde was the general of one guard, and he was the general of the other guard. Furthermore, Li Chengqian was the commander of the six commanders of the East Palace in name, but in fact he was the person who was the real commander of the Six Commanders of the East Palace.

Therefore, after several defense adjustments, he completely controlled the nearly 50,000 army in the entire Chang'an City.

Moreover, because he was exhausted during this period, Wei Zheng took the initiative to share his pressure, which made Wei Zheng busy all day long, even though he didn't even notice the several urban defense exchanges in Chang'an City.

Therefore, Changsun Wuji felt restless in his heart.

He began to seriously consider the current situation and began to deploy to all forces.

First of all, the Northern King Li Ke who was far away in the northwest, in Changsun Wuji's eyes, he was his real enemy. If he did not get rid of Northern King Li Ke, he would not feel at ease in anything he did. The second thing that made him uneasy was Eastern King Li Tai. Even though Li Tai did not have much power in the army, Changsun Wuji dared not mutter to his influence in the court. Third... Changsun Wuji looked at the sky in the north and remained silent. There seemed to be a struggle in his eyes, but it was as clear as water in an instant, and this hot light shone in his eyes.
