After hearing Li Haochen's words, Li Yuan looked at Li Haochen with a smile and said, "I want to be in the crown prince after the New Year, I wonder what you think?"

Li Haochen almost fell to the ground when he heard Li Yuan's words. This was shocking news. Although this meaning was revealed when Li Yuan and Changsun Shunde were talking to each other, the meaning of asking Li Haochen in front of Li Haochen is incomparable.

Li Haochen thought about it for a while, but still couldn't grasp Li Yuan's true thoughts, so he said cautiously: "Your Majesty is in the prime of Spring and Autumn Period, how can you say that you can pass the throne?"

Li Yuan heard Li Haochen say this and smiled at Li Haochen. He seemed to have seen what Li Haochen was thinking at the moment. Then he sighed and said, "Haochen! You don't have to doubt my intention. I really want to pass on the prince. The reason I want to pass on the prince in advance is because I am afraid that the prince will not be able to control the situation after a hundred years. At the same time, I passed the throne and wanted to see Shimin's reaction. I know that my son has not been able to live in peace since I was a child.

, I am afraid that when I really wait a hundred years later, the crown prince will succeed to the throne, and Shimin will rebel. I think that while I still have the energy to pass the position of the crown prince in advance, Shimin should be more peaceful. After I transfer all my power to the crown prince smoothly, even if Shimin is rebellious, he will probably not have any troops. The crown prince is kind by nature and will definitely treat his brothers well. In this way, their brothers will be harmonious, and I can go with confidence, otherwise I am afraid that I will die with my eyes!"

Li Yuan's words completely expressed his feelings, but Li Haochen knew the truth that being with the king is like being with a tiger. Although he agreed with Li Yuan's approach in his heart, he still said, "Your Majesty is not as good as you can! If Your Majesty has made up his mind, I will naturally follow the order!" Li Haochen actually agreed with Li Yuan, but did not express his point of view. Instead, he flattered Li Yuan. The longer he contacted the emperor, Li Haochen became more cautious and cautious, and his words became less and less visible.

Li Yuan naturally understood Li Haochen's point of view, but he was more or less disliked Li Haochen's sleekness, and then said, "Okay, Li Haochen, I ask you for your opinion, but you flatter me. I think you are in the Dali Temple prison and have not stayed enough!" After Li Yuan finished speaking, he looked at Li Haochen with a smile. This sentence was full of jokes.

However, Li Haochen did not dare to listen as a joke at all, but was very clear that Li Yuan wanted to listen to his clear attitude, so he said: "Your Majesty, I think you should discuss this change of imperial power with the Secretary of the Three Provinces, rather than studying it with me as a small general. I am humble in position and limited in knowledge. I only know that finally Your Majesty, finally the Crown Prince, and the rest of the ministers do not know anything!"

Li Yuan heard this and knew that Li Haochen could not hear what he wanted to hear today, so he sighed deeply: "It's not that I'm unwilling to discuss with them, but do you know that these people are family forces behind them, and they represent more of the interests of their family, so their words will be remote, just like Changsun Shunde. I know that you have no background and no scruples, so I want to ask you if my decision is appropriate." As he said that, Li Yuan sighed heavily and said: "I didn't expect that you are more skillful than a monkey, and you don't have a word of land. Forget it, I won't force you anymore. You should step down first! Let me consider it myself!"

Li Haochen suddenly felt a little sympathy in his heart when he listened to Li Yuan. He looked at Li Yuan at this moment. It seemed that Li Yuan was no longer the mighty and arrogant Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but a lonely old man in his twilight years and had no idea of ​​asking someone to tell his intimate words. At this moment, Li Haochen unconsciously remembered his grandmother in his previous life. Suddenly, he no longer had awe and intimacy for Li Yuan and imperial power, and only had deep sympathy for this old man.

The change in his heart made Li Haochen slightly excited, and then he clasped his fists and said to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, Haochen believes that Your Majesty has made a decision. Your Majesty's decision Haochen agrees very much. However, Haochen has one suggestion, that is, to hand over the position but not the power, respect Your Majesty as the Supreme Emperor, and still go to court to govern the government. The prince is in charge of the court and does not ask about the politics. Let the prince learn from you for a while before handing over the power, so that it is appropriate! As for the repentance, I believe that once you abdicate to the prince, you will inevitably rebel. If you want to save your life, I hope your Majesty will listen to it!"

Li Yuan saw that Li Haochen was saying the heartfelt words at this moment, and he listened completely, so he said, "I really want to do this with my heart! I know that your knowledge is beyond ordinary people. It's good. When the prince waits for you, you will definitely reward you! I hope you will be loyal to the Tang Dynasty. I and the prince will not treat you badly!"

Li Haochen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is serious, I am ashamed of you! Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is my duty, and I dare not beg for rewards! Please rest assured, I will do my best to assist the prince!"

Li Yuan nodded and asked Li Haochen to retreat first. Li Haochen left the Tai Chi Hall, but he was still a little excited. He knew that the Tang Dynasty would inevitably have another bloody storm in the future. Li Yuan's approach could only stimulate Li Shimin to rebel earlier, and could not stop his rebellion. There was no other reason, just because this person was Li Shimin, who was the biggest ambitious man in the Tang Dynasty. He could not be inferior to others and was still peaceful. Li Haochen knew that he needed to prepare in advance.

Li Haochen left the palace and went to find Lu Tong and asked Lu Tong: "Is there any news coming from Chunfeng?"

Lu Tong was a little puzzled by Li Haochen's question. After all, Li Chunfeng had just left Beijing for a few days and had not arrived in Yunzhou yet. How could there be any news? However, Lu Tong did not say that, but shook his head and said, "Based on time, Director Li should be able to arrive in Yunzhou in another three days. I guess there will be news at that time!"

Li Haochen nodded, and realized that he was a little anxious, so he said, "Send him a secret message, telling him to keep an eye on Li Shimin. If there is any disturbance, he will report it as soon as possible. There may be major changes in the capital, and Li Shimin may rebel!"
