A morning meeting ended with this donation In this era of early war, it can be said that the group of people standing above the court are the richest group of people in the entire Tang Dynasty.
With Li Er and Li Jiancheng's good start, ministers donated generously.
It's just that all the ministers were unhappy, and they felt resentful towards the prince who made this suggestion.
Why did the matter between you brothers put us on the line?
A new round of adjustment began in the minds of those people.
Fortunately, King Li Yuanji of Qi really didn't have much spare money, because most of his money was used to bribe some people in the palace.
Otherwise, how could he, the little King of Qi, who was not favored by Li Yuan, get first-hand information about Li Er?
In his opinion, as long as he could deal with Li Er, his biggest enemy, he would accept any price.
So this time he only donated a mere thousand taels, which also set the stage for other courtiers: Didn't His Highness the King of Qi only donate a thousand taels?
If he donated more, wouldn't it be beyond his status?
Therefore, each minister made a small donation of a few hundred taels, but although the amount was small, it could not support the large number of people.
The ministers who were qualified to go to court said it was more or less, but there were dozens of people, and the total amount was enough.
A donation of nearly one hundred thousand taels.
The princes and ministers of the DPRK donated 350,000 taels of silver for disaster relief in Hebei Province.
This figure was beyond Li Yuan's expectation.
He did not expect that these guys around him, who were usually so quiet, were actually rich men.
It seemed that these aristocratic families The wealthy clans have become cancerous tumors, and they will have to be rectified after the world is calmed down.
Li Yuan made a decision in his heart, but there was no emotion or anger on his face.
After the last minister wrote a note donating five hundred taels, the eunuch announced his resignation.
After retreating from the court, Li Yuan stopped Li Er.
He had something to say to Li Er alone.
Just when Li Yuan called Li Er to stop, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji looked at each other quietly, with a fierce look in their eyes.
"I stopped you because I wanted to have a good talk with you."
Li Yuan and Li Er were walking on the path of the Royal Garden.
Li Er was half a step behind and followed Li Yuan respectfully.
Hearing Li Yuan's words, he felt a little confused.
"Why, can't I talk to you?
We father and son have not had such a heart-to-heart conversation for six years."
Li Yuan knew that Li Er would be very confused as to why he was stopped to talk alone.
You must know that from the Tang Dynasty This has been Li Jiancheng's patent since its establishment.
"I don't dare."
Li Er didn't dare to speculate any more.
He knew that Li Yuan would definitely tell the reason.
"I stopped you because I want to ask you what you are thinking.
You and your two brothers have become like this.
I am really heartbroken.
You are brothers from the same mother.
How could you become like this?
Does it look like the Nine Dragon Chair I'm sitting on?"
Li Yuan's words made Li Er's expression change suddenly.
"What can I say about my father?
My son has never been disobedient."
How dare Li Er say that he wanted to sit on it?
Didn't he think he was dying quickly enough?
So he immediately denied it and bowed repeatedly.

"Okay, everyone knows what's going on.
You conquered most of this world, so you feel that you deserve to sit on this chair.
And I know that it was because of my age that I became the crown prince."
Li Yuan's voice was low at this time, without the domineering air of an emperor at all.
"But, after all, he is your biological brother, and he is the prince who I personally conferred, so there are some things that I didn't give you and you can't take them yourself."
Li Yuan's words were very serious and decisive.
He knew that he, the second boy, was He can do anything.
Back then, a mere hundred cavalrymen dared to attack Wang Shichong's camp.
Now that the troops are strong, why don't they have the courage to do something?
But this is exactly what Li Yuan is worried about.
These three sons were all born to his own family, Dou, and they are also his three most accomplished sons.
The eldest brother is mature and prudent, and is a master of internal affairs; the second child has extraordinary talents in both politics and military affairs, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a genius; the third child, although ugly, is also very brave, but is scheming and scheming.
Compared to his two older brothers, they were far behind.
"Father, I really don't have any disloyal feelings.
It's just that the eldest brother and the third brother can't let it go."
Li Er dared not admit that he wanted to be a big treasure, so he could only say that the prince was afraid of him.
"Really?
I also know that from the day I established the Tang Dynasty, you will only become more and more suspicious of each other.
I just didn't expect that you would reach such a point where you will not give up until you put the law to death."
It's very sad.
I don't know how to explain to your mother when I go to Jiuquan."
Li Yuan called Li Er this time, but his intention was actually to make Li Er make concessions.
So they pulled out Dou, the biological mother of Li Er and his three brothers.
"Father, there is no need to feel sad.
With my eldest brother's intelligence, I will definitely figure it out."
Li Er still pretended to be stupid and asked him to give up.
There was no way.
He and his brothers worked hard to conquer this world, but it will be Li Jiancheng who takes the throne.
How can such a good thing happen?
And even if he really has no idea about the throne, will those two guys let him go?
At this moment, Li Jiancheng I couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards Li Yuan.
"Why are you all like this?
It was built like this before.
He said that you can't let go of the military power in your hands.
He said that you have resentment in your heart and feel that I am unfair.
He has no ill intentions towards you.
Are you really prepared to fight against each other?
Are you ready to die of anger?
"I can't do it."
Li Yuan was also angry.
None of these boys had grown up and were no longer submissive.
"Father, I am not attached to the military power, but my brothers have followed me in all these years of expeditions here and there.
I have a deep relationship with them.
I really can't bear to separate.
Moreover, I don't dare to hand over the military power, because in Erchen At any time around the palace There are no less than five hundred people on standby, and I dare not give up this last amulet."

Li Er's words implied that if he did not have this military power and was afraid that his soldiers would riot after his death, his head would appear the next day.
On someone's desk.
This is a direct showdown.
Li Er has never been a procrastinator.
As long as the target is determined, he dares to directly put all his chips on it, even if there is only a 60% chance.
In the previous court meeting, he was sure that those two people must kill him.
Then he would just show his cards and forget it.
Wrapping up the last fig leaf like this would really make people laugh.
It's better to cut through the mess with a quick knife like this.
"You mean, you must die if it is built."
Although Li Yuan could hide anything in the palace if he wanted to know it, he never thought that his sons would fight for life and death in this imperial city.
Come.
Therefore, he really did not have any informants near the residences of the three of them.
He just planted insiders in their houses to know their general movements.
"How dare you say that there are five hundred crossbowmen, always on standby, hidden in several houses around the Qin Palace."
Li Er was very sure, because he had been leading troops all year round, and he was very familiar with the murderous aura in the soldiers.
When he went home yesterday, he felt that there was a faint murderous aura in the surrounding houses, sharp and with the aura of death.
It was not the bloody murderous aura of the melee soldiers, so it must be the crossbowman. undoubtedly.
"It's really ridiculous for me to be an emperor.
I didn't expect that my son would kill his brother under my nose.
Is there any way for the king to really treat me as if I don't exist?"
Li Yuan began to roar, and the angry lion wanted to open his mouth.
Its claws tear apart the little lion that dares to defy its will.
"Father, please calm down your son."
Li Er took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
He also felt that Li Yuan's anger level was not enough and was not fully charged.
Otherwise, the next big move will not have the maximum power.
He wants Li Jiancheng and the two guys to bear the anger of the old lion.
Since they are enemies, they should not hold back.
There can be compassion, but that is only after completely subduing the enemy.
Li Er still has not made up his mind, and still cannot pass the emotional test in his heart.
His feelings were not for Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, but for Li Yuan and Dou.
He was afraid that if he killed those two guys, he would directly destroy the father-son relationship with Li Yuan.
After all, Li Er is still a filial child.
Li Yuan roared for a while, and then directly asked someone to thoroughly investigate what Li Er said.
The father and son fell into a long silence.
Not long after, a chamberlain came to report.
Li Yuan's face became increasingly ugly.
It seemed that the results of the investigation made him very angry and worried.
He was breathing heavily, blowing his beard and staring like he wanted to eat the person behind the scenes. .
But after all, Li Yuan was also a person who sat on the throne.
The reason why he lost his composure was just because there was no one else around, so he didn't have to hide it.
So after a while, Li Yuan calmed down, and his eyes when looking at Li Er softened a lot: "I really didn't expect that power will really make people unscrupulous.
Go away and go far.
I really give you half of the Tang Dynasty.

Let you establish yourself as king, as long as you don't come back to Chang'an again.
I know that those two people together are no match for you, so in order to avoid the situation I least want to see, you go."
Li Yuan closed his eyes, today He was exhausted mentally and physically.
The situation he didn't want to see was becoming a reality step by step, and the things he didn't want to see were happening one by one.
This made him start to hate the country he had built.
"Father, if I don't leave my son, I still want to fulfill my filial piety under my father's knees.
I still want to watch the Tang Dynasty bring peace to the world, instead of just splitting it in half.
This country was conquered by my father and my son together."
It was defeated by all of us, so it cannot be divided.
Moreover, the reason why we started the war was because the war made people's lives difficult.
In order to give the people a peaceful world, his father raised an army to resist the tyrannical Emperor Sui Yang.
Now dividing the world into two will only make the original tragedy happen again.
The people will be displaced, there will be no roosters for thousands of miles, and thousands of people will be wiped out."
Li Ercai didn't want to To leave, to divide half of the country that I have conquered in vain, who is willing to do so?
At least he is not willing to:
