"My brother-in-law and cousin! You have a problem for the palace." Li Chengqian said irritably.
After learning the evidence of Chang sun Chong's crime, Li Chengqian was in a dilemma. On relatives, Chang sun Chong was both his cousin and his brother-in-law. If he handled it impartially, he could not explain to his uncle, mother and sister. On relations, the Chang Sun family was the first family in Chang'an City and the most staunch supporter of the east palace. If he dealt with Chang sun Chong severely, I'm afraid his followers would be cold.
What annoyed him even more was that the compromise plan put forward by Chang sun Chong, who was on paper, had such a big mistake. Whether Datang sent troops directly or supported Turks to fight a proxy war, Datang would be invincible. However, he believed in Chang sun Chong, which led to heavy losses for the firearm army.
According to the information of Hegan Chengji, the firearm army killed at least 1000 people, injured 500, and almost half of the casualties. The firearm army is now the face of Datang. It almost slapped Datang in the face, which made him lose face as a decision-maker. Once his father returned, he may not escape responsibility.
"Don't panic, your highness. Weichen has a plan that can certainly solve your Highness's troubles." Hegan Chengji suddenly said in a loud voice.
"Speak quickly," said Li Chengqian with joy.
"The reason why Chang sun Chong is so arrogant is that he relies on the power of the Chang Sun family. Now his Highness the prince is in a dilemma. It's better to leave the problem to the Chang Sun family. Once Chang sun learns about it, he will deal with it properly by his means. By the way, he can cover up his Highness's mistakes in decision-making. Isn't it the best of both worlds and everyone is happy." He ganchengji suggested.
Li Chengqian could not help but move in his heart, which is a good note. Once changsun Wuji takes the initiative, he can certainly do it properly with his plan, and can show his uncle good luck. You know, changsun Wuji is the most important supporter of Li Chengqian as the prince.
"Your Highness, don't!" suddenly a sharp voice came and stopped Li Chengqian.
Hegan Chengji nodded and saw Li Chengqian walking out from behind. Although he was a servant, he had a delicate face and extraordinary bearing.
"Satisfied, why?" Li Chengqian didn't understand.
"Your Highness, do you think the eldest grandson will be convicted of a felony if he is greedy and rash?" the servant named satisfactory asked.
Li Chengqian pondered for a moment, shook his head, and scolded Chang sun Chong for his greedy work and rash progress. He wouldn't hurt his muscles and bones at all.
"What if he abandoned his army and fled?" gratified asked again.
"Take the post of general of the firearm army at most."
Li Chengqian sighed. Chang sun Chong's desertion was nominally to ask for help. Coupled with Chang sun Wuji's power, he could get through this level by pleading a little.
"What if you add buying and selling military merit?" gratified asked again.
Li Chengqian sighed, "it's the best ending to go to jail without committing a crime."
Gratified, he asked, "the reason why Chang sun Chong came to such an end is to be smart and make mistakes again and again. With the example of Chang sun Chong, why should his royal highness make mistakes again and again?"
"Er, ER!" Li Chengqian suddenly realized that he was not in the situation where Chang sun Chong made the first mistake. Now he made the most mistakes in decision-making and won a great victory on the grassland. This mistake is almost irrelevant. However, if he chose to protect Chang sun Chong and burst out one day, he may be guilty of the same crime as Chang sun Chong.
"Your Highness is the prince, but there is something wrong, but you can't be guilty. Once your highness conceals this matter, it is the crime of shielding. You know, the firearm army used to be under Marquis Mo, and your highness thinks it will be flawless to hide the heavy losses of the firearm Army caused by Chang sun Chong." he advised with satisfaction.
"But the palace didn't inform my uncle and watched my cousin get guilty, but I would offend my uncle to death." Li Chengqian sighed.
With a satisfied face, he said firmly: "the emperor is ruthless! His Highness the crown prince is a prince. Now he is in charge of supervising the country and exercising monarchical power on his behalf. Imagine, if your majesty learned about this, would he miss the military law because of his family affection!"
Li Chengqian shook his head and rushed to Chang sun. Such a figure will be a hidden danger in the army. This time, the grassland war will turn the tide, and the next time, it may lead to the failure of a war.
Just like the Mohist ballad when he was making horseshoes, one Martin was missing and one country died. Chang sun Chong was not only missing one Martin, but also a horseshoe!
"And to say the least, even if your majesty will forgive Chang sun Chong, your highness can't do so, because your highness is a prince. You can't make mistakes before your highness ascends the great treasure. Does your highness choose to offend Chang sun or disappoint your majesty?" his words were fierce and hit the point.
"Contentment is worthy of the left and right arms of the palace," said Li Chengqian, taking a deep breath. Contentment is the servant of his east palace and his confidant. In this grassland war, Li Chengqian went to Mo mansion to ask for advice. Before that, Li Chengqian would discuss with contentment about many things that were inconvenient for him to discuss with ministers, and contentment would always put forward pertinent suggestions, The same is true this time. If he is not satisfied with the reminder, he will make a big mistake.
What he said is true. Chang sun Chong is just his cousin. Of course, he will not risk his position as a prince for Chang sun Chong. Now he only needs to satisfy you, that is, the father and the emperor, not his uncle.
A smile appeared on his satisfied face and said, "besides, the prince doesn't need to offend the dead eldest sun. Now the grassland army returns triumphantly. It's time for your majesty to return from Mount Tai. At that time, the prince just needs to find an imperial historian to break through the matter, and naturally he will get out of it."
Li Chengqian nodded slightly, turned to Hegan Chengji and said, "during this time, you should stay in the East Palace and not go out."
Li Chengqian did things carefully. First, he ganchengji was controlled in the East Palace, so he was in the initiative.
"I will obey!"
Hegan Chengji's low head and uncertain face were the idea that he and Li Zhi came up with to dig a trap for Li Chengqian, but he didn't expect to be seen through by satisfaction. He wants to stir up the wind and rain in the East Palace in the future. Satisfaction will be his biggest obstacle.
"However, your highness, you think of this layer, but you don't think of the second layer. Once you give up changsun Chong, it means you have offended the changsun family. Once the changsun family turns to support King Li Zhi of Jin, the internal struggle of Datang will begin." he ganchengji is happy in his heart.
Once the Tang Dynasty fights, it will fall into chaos. At that time, the opportunity for Turkic revival will come. He will not hesitate to sacrifice himself for Turkic revival.
