Chapter 268 Li Yu's Choice

In fact, at this time, the father and son were already aware of what they wanted to say to each other, but no one was willing to say it in their mouths.

However, since Li Heng decided to start forcing Li Yu to make a choice, Li Yu naturally could not refuse and could only wait for his father to finish his words.

"First, after a few days, I will go west, and you will take over the Tai Chi Palace and ascend the throne as quickly as possible. Not to mention anything else, most of the people in the Chang'an City court will support you. Those prime ministers, the imperial guards of the Northern Yai, and your teacher Li Mi, will spare no effort to support you. As long as you can control the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty in a short period of time, you may not be unsteady in this position of emperor!"

After hearing this first choice, Li Yu was not happy because he could become the emperor at all. Instead, his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat. He knew that it was easy to say these few words from Li Heng's mouth, but if he really asked him to do it, he might not be able to do it well.

But before Li Yu could say anything, the second choice had already been spoken from Li Heng's mouth.

"The second choice is to learn how to give up the throne to the Supreme Emperor, Li Chengqi."

This sentence is very short, but it brings great stimulation to Li Yu.

Before, no matter when I was thinking about this, I talked about it with Li Yong, or when I talked about it with Li Heng, no one had ever proposed this path for him, although this path was indeed a path that was successfully tested by Li Longji and Li Chengqi.

According to Li Yu's thoughts before, although Li Yu did not say that he would take the initiative to compete with Li Yu for the position of the emperor. However, once the dispute really happened, with Li Yu's current control over the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, the Xuanwu Sect would definitely happen.

What Li Yu was really hesitant was that the tragedy of brothers was very likely to happen to him and Li, and it was very likely that he would die in the end.

He has been pushed onto this boat all the time, and it is almost impossible to get off the boat again, but obviously, Li Heng proposed a new idea to himself.

"Father, if this is true, will the third brother accept it?"

After hearing these two paths, Li Yu's first reaction was whether Li Yan would accept it, which made Li Heng almost irritated to death.

In fact, he said these two ways simply to inspire Li Yu. If Li Yu proposed that he wanted the position of emperor at this time, Li Heng would spare no effort to help him in the last few days of his life.

After all, he also knows a lot about Li Yi's temperament. He knows that Li Yi is fine and his ability is indeed not bad. But if you really let Li Yi learn from Li Er of the past without any reason and kill Li Yu directly with one knife, he will definitely not be able to let go of his figure.

So even when Li Heng had already thought about how to take advantage of Li Qing's weakness, Li Yu was not successful at all, which made Li Heng on the sickbed feel like a deflated ball at the time, soft.

At this point, Li Heng finally decided not to be foolish and could no longer use his willpower to manipulate Li Yu's ideas.

"He will naturally accept that you should know more about him than me. He will bear some things, but he will use his own methods. The matter of giving up was not proposed by me, but by the Supreme Emperor. According to his words, if you can learn from Li Chengqi of the past, Li Nai should also be able to become the next Supreme Emperor. Since Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, there have been few harmonious relationships between the royal brothers, but no matter what, the Supreme Emperor and his brothers are good. All the brothers of the Supreme Emperor have achieved a good end."

Li Heng actually figured it out a little these days. As a father, he actually wanted his sons to have a good end.

Before, he wanted to stimulate Li Yu, but he thought that no matter how far Li Yan reached, it would be impossible to kill Li Yu. However, even if this happened, he knew that it was too risky and this was not fair to Li Yu.

His father suddenly said this, and Li Yu felt relieved for no reason.

The situation he was most afraid of was that Li Heng used his life to force him to compete with Li Yong for the throne. In the end, whether he died or Li Yong died, it was not what Li Yu wanted to see.

Originally, he thought that being an emperor was his life and he had to accept it no matter what, so he never thought about whether he wanted to be this emperor. However, since the An Lushan rebellion, Li Yu felt that things really didn't seem to be destined.

Li Yan is also a prince, and his ability is much better than himself, so why can't this position of emperor be Li Yan?

So Li Yu decided to tell Li Heng all his thoughts at this time.

"My father wanted to have a good death for me and my third brother, but my third brother and I both hoped that the Tang Dynasty would return to prosperity in the Kaiyuan period. I, as the prince, did not have confidence in this matter. The Tang Dynasty is still internal and external troubles. Even if I become the emperor tomorrow, I don't know how to reverse the current situation in the Tang Dynasty, but the third brother can..."

"How did you know he could!"

"Before I returned to Chang'an City, I was a little worried. I once asked my third brother about this. My third brother once told me that if I had confidence in revitalizing the Tang Dynasty, he would not have competed for the position of emperor with me. Now, what he implied at that time was that if I had no confidence, then let him be the emperor, but he didn't want to break up with me and give me this face!"

Of course Li Heng didn't know about this plot. Indeed, if Li Qing was wholeheartedly trying to support Li Yu as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, what he said should be that no matter what you do, I will support you, instead of if you think you can do it, if you think you can't do it, if you let me do it, you will do it like this.

"Then why don't you have confidence? The position of the crown prince is already yours, and all the civil officials in the court support you!"

"I'm sure my father, what you and the Supreme Emperor taught me since childhood were how to govern the country in prosperity, not how to make the Tang Dynasty rise in troubled times!"
