Chapter 1107 Succession (Subscription Request)
Li Er knew very well that once he went to heaven, the human dynasty of Datang would have to be looked after by someone.
Originally, he wanted to pass it on to the boss Li Chengqian.
After all, Li Chengqian was the prince and should have inherited his throne.
But it's unfortunate.
Li Chengqian actually refused.
And he refused plausibly, as if he wanted to seek immortality.
Let Li Er have no rebuttal, so he can't stop Li Chengqian from seeking enlightenment. If his talent is good, he can really become an immortal, which is also a good thing.
At least the Tang Dynasty had one more protective god.
In comparison, Li Er still believes in Li Chengqian's words. It doesn't matter that he has no talent, but it cannot affect his son.
He felt that his idea was correct and there would be absolutely no problem.
If the eldest son doesn't want to be the emperor, he can only choose from the other sons.
It just so happens that Li Er doesn't have many other things, but he has many sons.
That's why the princes came to meet him, but in comparison, these sons were either unsuitable or not useful.
Even his favorite fourth child, Li Tai, is not suitable to be emperor, at least that's what Li Er thinks.
Although I would hesitate and be cautious when considering him, I even imagined that Li Tai was the emperor.
But without exception.
He still felt that the old man Li Zhi was more suitable to be the emperor. Only a kind and generous person like Li Zhi would not kill all his brothers after becoming the emperor.
If it's the fourth child, Li Tai, then that's not necessarily the case. Maybe everyone in Li Er's lineage will die.
That would be tragic.
To sum up.
After His Majesty Li Er's ideological struggle and careful consideration, he finally decided to make Lao Jiu his successor.
For no other reason than because he is more suitable, that's all.
then.
Li Er said calmly: "Pheasant slave stays, everyone else should leave first."
The princes: "..."
They all knew that the answer they and others had just given probably failed to satisfy their father.
So let them go at this moment.
In other words, they should have no chance.
The throne may belong to Laojiu Li Zhi, and they are accompanying him.
Some are happy and some are sad.
However, everyone is confused about one thing. Since their arrogant father, His Majesty Li Er, has decided to pass on the throne, he should pass it on to Laojiu Li Zhi.
Then here comes the problem.
What should I do with the boss Li Chengqian?
You must know that at this moment, the boss Li Chengqian is still the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty and the legal heir.
If Lao Jiu is forcibly put on the throne, what will the boss do? Where will he be placed?
"My son, please leave!"
Although the princes were very confused in their hearts, even though they felt that they did have a new goal after cultivating immortality.
but.
It is undeniable that the throne still has great appeal, such as the throne of the Tang Dynasty.
They all still miss it.
It's a pity that he couldn't get into Li Er's eyes, and finally failed.
That’s it!
It's not bad to become an immortal, it's not bad to become a god, it's still aloof.
now.
After all the other princes went out, Lao Jiu Li Zhi was slightly stunned, but his expression was extremely strange.
He said: "Father, I wonder if you have left a pheasant slave..."
His eyes were full of confusion and questioning. Although he could guess what Li Er was thinking, he was not sure.
He was afraid that he had guessed wrong.
Li Er looked at Li Zhi with great satisfaction and said, "Pheasant slave, you are already ten years old, are you willing to help your father and solve his problems?"
Li Zhi is not old.
Perhaps because he was born in the royal family, he has been exposed to the whirlpool of political power for a long time, and his mind has matured precociously.
Today's Laojiu Li Zhi looks like a young man of fourteen or fifteen years old, like a peerless and elegant scholar.
After hearing Li Er's words, Li Zhi said: "Reporting to my father, I want to help my father solve his problems, but you must also know that my father is not old, and..."
He wanted to continue to give some reasons to refuse. After all, emperors have been afraid of someone who has been thinking about his throne since ancient times.
Because to a certain extent, thinking about someone else's throne means looking forward to their early death.
Otherwise, how could you get the throne?
Besides, Li Zhi felt that he was really still young.
He is only ten years old.
Still in vain.
If you think about it carefully, you are not even ten years old, so you are still very young.
What's more, he didn't know if Li Er was testing him.
Li Zhi, who often reads history books, knows very well that many emperors throughout the ages have suffered from serious suspicions in their old age.
Very suspicious.
I always feel that this and that one is thinking about his throne, so I call him to inquire, which also has this meaning.
So even though Li Zhi was young, he was still afraid.
Faintly shaking a little.
It's just that Li Er didn't discover it.
now.
Li Er continued: "Pheasant slave, you and Douzi are my favorites, but...
But don’t worry, I will definitely let you enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. "
Li Zhi: "..."
He felt a little weak after listening to Li Er's words.
He quickly said: "Father, in fact, I just want to be with you and my mother, and there is no need for extreme glory and wealth.
There is no pocket, and there is still a pheasant slave. "
"good."
Li Er nodded, "It's good that you have this mentality, Chi Nu, but some things are not as simple as you think.
I think you are also clear about some situations.
Since the national teacher came to the Tang Dynasty, he has preached the world and spread the method of cultivating immortals. Now there are countless people cultivating immortals in the Tang Dynasty.
Among them, more or less, they have some skills.
Some can split mountains and rocks, some can fly into the sky and hide in the ground, and some are even proficient in endless transformations.
In short, the current Tang Dynasty has become different, very different from before.
So you have to understand..."
His Majesty Li Er taught Li Zhi tirelessly for an hour, talking nonsense and spitting foam at the mouth.
It seems that he is talking about the dark and chaotic world.
"Yes, yes, I understand it all."
After standing for an hour, Li Zhi's face turned pale. If he was not facing the majestic Majesty Li Er, his legs would have started to tremble at this moment.
In his heart, Li Zhi kept complaining, "What's wrong with the emperor? Did he leave me alone just to tell me all these nonsense?"
In this world, the prosperous Tang Dynasty has undergone tremendous changes. Li Zhi knows this.
But.
There is no need to keep talking about it.
If someone else came, Li Zhi might just turn his face away and walk away, too lazy to listen.
But Li Er is different.
This is not only his father, but also his father.
In addition to being a father, Li Er also has the identity of an emperor.
He is extremely powerful.
He is also terrifyingly powerful, making people look up to him.
After a while.
Li Er finally stopped preaching.
He looked at Li Zhi, who was listening happily, with a look of satisfaction, and continued: "Chi Nu, the national teacher came to the palace some time ago. He told me that the heaven has been opened up, and he also took the craftsmen and materials I prepared to the heaven. He said that he wanted to build the heavenly palace.
And, he also asked me to make preparations. At most, the first batch of buildings in the heavenly palace should be completed in the next few years. He asked me to make preparations.
Hahaha!
You may not know that the national teacher has promised my father that as long as I deal with the affairs of the mortal world, I can go to heaven to become the emperor of heaven, or even establish the heavenly palace.
You know the heavenly palace in mythology and legends, it is the one with all kinds of magical legends.
So, I plan to ask you to come and see it, and I want to pass the throne to you."
Li Zhi: "..."
He never thought that his father, Li Er, would actually tell him all the situations directly.
The fundamental purpose.
It's not that Li Er is kind and benevolent, nor that he feels that he is old and dim, but that he wants to be the emperor of heaven.
That's why he is so anxious to pass the throne to others.
Li Zhi understood instantly.
But he also couldn't help laughing and crying, "Father, so are you really going to pass on the throne?"
"Yes." Li Er nodded undeniably, admitting it.
But Li Zhi's heart became more and more confused.
He asked: "Father, my elder brother..."
When Li Chengqian was mentioned, Li Er couldn't help but feel angry. He had worked hard to cultivate the heir for so many years, but he was gone.
How could he not be angry.
So.
Li Er said with a dark face: "Okay, Chi Nu, don't talk about him. I'll tell you clearly that I want to pass the throne to you."
"..."
Although Li Zhi had already guessed it with his own intelligence.
But.
When these words came out of Li Er's mouth, he couldn't help but get excited.
Father actually wants to pass the throne to himself.
Hiss!
Doesn't it mean that father recognizes himself?
Then, what about the elder brother?
"Father, I am terrified."
Li Zhi knelt down and said respectfully: "I am still young and cannot bear this responsibility. Even if my elder brother is not suitable, there are always suitable ones among you brothers. Besides..."
He wanted to continue to say something, but was interrupted by Li Er, "Wait, Chi Nu, are you afraid?
Or do you think you can't be an emperor at all?"
Isn't it just being an emperor?
How many people beg for it, countless people think about it day and night, and even dream about it, but it doesn't work for Li Zhi?
Li Er was a little discouraged.
At this time
Li Zhi explained quietly, "In reply to your father's words, I just feel that I am still young and I am afraid that I can't take on the important task. I am afraid that I will ruin your plan."
"No problem."
After hearing this reason, Li Er smiled and said, "I am just telling you now. I will issue an imperial decree in a few days to pardon you and make you the crown prince, so that you can get familiar with it first.
As for the real time of succession, it may be a few years away. By then, you will be in your teens and have reached adulthood.
As for whether someone will bully you when you are young, there is no need to worry about it. First, I will take the older generation to heaven. Second, I will establish the Heavenly Court in heaven. As the Emperor of Heaven, I can also take care of the mortal world.
To be precise, I will be the Emperor of Heaven who rules the three realms of heaven, earth and man in the future, the Supreme God.
Do you understand?
With me as your backer, who dares to bully you?"
Hmm?
After hearing Li Er's words, Li Zhi felt brightened.
Although Li Er's words were a bit inappropriate and a bit out of place, they were also correct.
After my father sits on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, who would dare to bully me when I am young?
As for the fact that one's cultivation will stagnate after becoming an emperor, this is not a problem at all.
As the saying goes, if you want to gain something, you must first lose it.
Li Zhi still understands this principle.
Not to mention that the throne itself is the ultimate wealth and honor in the world, what's wrong with it.
"Besides, I can also abdicate and pass the throne to others early. With my relationship with my father and mother, it will be easy for them to take me to heaven."
Li Zhi thought secretly, "In short, being an emperor will not be bad for me. This is a good thing."
After understanding these situations, Li Zhi respectfully said to Li Er: "Father, I am willing to help you solve your worries and difficulties, but I hope you can give me more guidance."
Hearing Li Zhi's answer, Li Er knew that his plan should be successful.
Huh!
He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Chi Nu, it's great that you think this way."
The main reason was that Li Chengqian was unwilling.
He could only be the tallest among the short ones. Li Zhi was born to him and Empress Changsun. Whether it was appearance, talent, learning, or the way of dealing with people, he was considered a top-grade choice.
Although he could not reach the extreme, it was enough to be a king who maintained the status quo.
After waiting for four or five years, maybe he could pass on the throne.
Li Er expressed his expectation.
For no other reason, he just wanted to build the heaven as soon as possible so that he could become a figure in myths and legends one day.
For example, the emperor of heaven!
