The first ninety-eighth hero's loneliness

"Then do you count the matter I'm talking about?" Li Mingxun asked.

Li Jundu asked back: "What's the matter?"

"You have established your successor, and I will bring the rest of the descendants of the Li family back to the empire."

"No." Li Jundu immediately said: "Doesn't this mean that the empire is better than my country? Doesn't it mean that the second brother is better than me, so it's not possible."

"Okay, I'll take a step back. I'll just pretend that I haven't seen it before. I'll just say Zhao Gui, if you don't stand him, I'll take him away, what's going on?" said Li Mingxun.

Li Jundu smiled and said, "Father, Father, don't you still want to know who I want to establish. You can ask the successor for this question. After I die, it's okay to have a flood."

"You bastard!"

Li Jundu met his father's eyes: "Of course I'm a bastard. If I'm not a bastard, how could you choose the second son? If I'm not a bastard, why haven't you seen you and my father for more than 20 years? If I'm not a bastard, why don't you come to India to be the Supreme Emperor? You have to be the Supreme Emperor of the Second Prince."

"Hahaha, fuck, our father-in-law is over, you are showing off with me. You are becoming more and more like my temper. Mom is a slap!" Li Mingxun laughed, patted his eldest son on the shoulder and said, "Stop quarrel, drink, let's have time?"

"Then let's get up." Li Jundu sat down.

The group moved the tables, chairs and benches into the woods. The eunuchs brought food and wine. Li Jundu ate something quietly. Li Mingxun asked, "What did you eat?"

"Odor, I can't hold on to the pain without this thing." Li Jundu said, looking around the others, brothers and sons, and said, "The rules of the Li family, whoever dares to touch this thing at will and expel them from the house. My rules will die if anyone touches it."

A group of people bowed their heads and said yes. Li Jundu ordered: "The third brother stays, and the children are all gone. Before I die, I don't want to see you again. In the last days, I don't want to be the emperor anymore. I just want to be my father's son and the third brother's elder brother. Anyway, the funeral has been arranged..."

Li Mingxun also waved his hand, and no one was involved and left behind, leaving only the three Li family father and son.

"I want to ask if Zhao Yi is the biological son of Regal." Li Mingxun asked.

"Of course, I just played a beauty trick and didn't replace the pillars." Li Jundu said righteously.

Lee Mingxun shook his head: "I always feel like his son."

"It's right. I always think Zhaogui is like the second child." Li Jundu cursed.

"Do you still remember Bai Mo?" Li Mingxun asked.

Li Jundu said this name twice, remembering that it was his first woman. He was a woman he met when he was reviving Jiangnan. In order to maintain his reputation and future, the empress dowager came forward to help him cook. At that time, he agreed that he would not forget it in a few months and then he would take it as a side room. If he forgets, he will forget it. Li Jundu swept the southwest and had already let it go.

"That woman is very infatuated with you. She never got married in her life. She passed away before the New Year. She was the third child who was the next generation of the third child." Li Mingxun said, and he smiled: "Actually, I knew about this from the beginning, and your mother thought I didn't know."

"Why didn't she come to India to find me?" Li Jundu was puzzled.

Li Junwei said: "Because you are the emperor, a real emperor, you are no longer the great hero she likes. She also understands the principle of the emperor's work."

"At least I can give her wealth."

"Life is precious, love is more expensive. If it is for freedom, both can be abandoned." Li Mingxun drank wine and recited this poem in the forest.

Li Junduo laughed, obviously this was not his value.

After laughing, Li Jundu said, "Dad, third brother, can I ask you a question?"

"Didn't you just want to ask?" Li Mingxun said.

Li Jundu said: "Yes, I have arranged my funeral well. There are regrets everywhere in life, but what I regret the most is that I don't know the secret between you two. The only thing that makes me happy is that my second brother doesn't know either. I'm dying, can I tell me now?"

"No, this secret can only be brought to the grave." Li Mingxun said directly.

"Then why can't I tell the second and the second brother? Only the third brother can know what your dream is?" Li Jundu still refused to give in.

Li Junwei said: "That's because you two are emperors. The eldest brother wants to be emperors and the second brother wants to inherit the throne. As long as you are emperors, you cannot know this secret. I know, it's because I don't want to be emperor."

"I really couldn't think of the difference between you and being an emperor. You swept the mainland and shocked the world. This is my dream and the emperor's responsibility."

Li Junwei laughed: "That has nothing to do with my father's ideals, it's just my selfishness, it's also my selfishness. I am a Chinese. As long as I have the opportunity, I hope my country and nation will have a broader land and more favorable geographical advantages. If you have to know what my father's ideal is, I can tell you this way, that is to overthrow everything he founded and advocated.

There is no conquest, no slavery, no privilege, no emperor, no colonization, no discrimination, everything that my elder brother likes and is used to is gone. This is my father's ideal, my elder brother, I say so, do you... believe it?"

"I believe." Li Jundu smiled and said, "I don't understand, nor can I understand, but I believe. My younger brother will not lie to me when I'm about to die."

After a while of silence, Li Jundu drank a pot of wine and said, "Three brothers, I think I am the most pitiful among my brothers. Now, you are the most pitiful. I have lived in my dreams and stubbornness throughout my life, and I can't extricate myself, but you live in my father's ideals and cannot escape. In fact, I know that conquest, enslavement, expansion, colonization, etc., not only I like it, but you also like it.

Although I am pitiful, I can at least do something I like and don’t care about anyone’s opinions. And you, what you want to do in the future is what you don’t like, and you have to consider everyone’s opinions.”

"As father's son, I have no choice." Li Junwei lay on the lawn, and the smile that often hangs on his face disappeared.

"As father's son, I'm helpless." Li Jundu also lay on the lawn.

"As your father, I'm very failed." Lee Mingxun lay between his two sons.

After so long, Li Jundu said: "I'm sorry dad, I don't want to anger you, I just..."

"I know I don't want to die with my eyes open, right?" said Li Mingxun.

Li Jundu said: "Or, I don't want to admit that I'm wrong in this life."

"If it were me, I would do the same." Lee Mingxun said.

Li Junwei nodded: "Me too. I know that I blame me, but it is only Spring and Autumn."

"Tsk tsk, pretending to be a cultural person." Li Mingxun and Li Jundu complained in unison.

After so long and so quiet, Li Junduo's choked voice sounded: "Dad...I feel pain..."

Li Mingxun's eyes suddenly flowed down, and when he raised his body to hug his eldest son, he had lost his breath.........

The news of Li Jundu's death soon spread in Agra. The Indian royal family gathered, and the emperor's decree was personally taken apart by the queen Chen Yourong. There were two decrees in it: one was made Li Zhaoyi the successor, and the other was to leave only the tombs of clothes and tombs in India, and the body was moved to the imperial tombs of the empire for burial. All etiquette was subject to the arrangements of King Yu of China.

The royal family cried in a lot, and Li Mingxun was so sad that he fainted. Only Li Zhaoyi and Li Junwei and his son left quietly. Li Junwei endured the grief and quickly sent a message to the imperial army stationed in Goa and Linxitang, who was loyal to Li Zhaogui in Diwu, and prepared for what to do next. However, Li Junwei did not think about whether to seize power or forcefully take Li Zhaogui and others away. He also needed to discuss with Li Mingxun, Shen Yourong and Li Zhaogui.

But Li Zhaoyi's next approach was unexpected. After he left the palace, Agra was bloody all night, and at least thousands of people were massacred, most of which were the political enemies of Prince Li Zhaogui, and many of them were even friends with Li Zhaoyi. After doing this, Li Zhaoyi announced that the whole country of Hindustan, Prince Zhaogui succeeded to the throne and burned Li Jundu's will, first leading the ministers to pay their respects, and then apologized for the pretext of killing the ministers and handed over the military power, which shocked the Li family.

Li Junwei once thought it was a conspiracy, but he soon realized that it was a strategy of playing hard to get, but after all, he could only understand whether he would slander him or slander his loyal ministers after his elder brother's death, and he did nothing and could not do anything.

In any case, everything was carried out according to the arrangements of Li Jundu's lifetime. The Supreme Emperor Li Mingxun and Yu King Li Junwei, who were still in India, congratulated Li Zhaogui on his ascension to the throne, and Li Zhaogui did not indict his younger brother Zhaoyi. This man who often restrained himself by the standards of a gentleman did some tricks for the first time. He conspired to a coup and announced that the slaughtered officials were those who rebelled while the emperor was seriously ill. Then he added the imperial decree of the emperor, turning Li Zhaoyi's behavior into a decree and doing things, and everything was covered up.

Immediately afterwards, Lee Zhaogui announced further cooperation with the empire, mainly in terms of economy and trade. On the crucial issue of resettling Lee Zhaoyi in this way, Lee Zhaoyi did not worry about Lee Zhaogui at all. He took the initiative to hand over the military power and chose to go to Penang and other places to study, temporarily leaving the Hindustan Empire.

This series of measures allowed the Hindustan Empire to obtain a rare period of peace since its founding, and the Hindustan Empire also entered a period of rapid development.

On September 17, 34th year of the empire, Prince Yu personally escorted Li Jundu's coffin back to the empire. Although Li Jundu's decree clearly stated that the rituals of funerals in the empire were arranged by his younger brother Li Junwei, Li Junhua also gave the greatest convenience.

The empire held a funeral for Li Jundu with the ritual of a prince. The rules were almost equivalent to state funerals. No one mentioned that Li Jundu had set up his own house and founded the country in the subcontinent. The imperial subjects only commemorated the young hero of the empire. They boarded the battleship at the age of fourteen and defeated the European Union Fleet in the Indian Ocean. They recovered Jiangnan at the age of seventeen and swept the feudal remnants of the southwest at the age of twenty. They were the heroes of the founding of the empire and the great scholars for expanding the border.

Overall, the empire was able to accept commemoration of Li Jundu. In addition to his great contribution to the empire, Li Jundu's death was also good news for the empire.

Because his successor, Li Zhaogui, grew up in the empire since childhood, had a sense of belonging to the empire and had always appeared in the image of pacifism. His becoming emperor means that the Hindustan Empire will no longer easily change the balance of the subcontinent, and the greatest threat to the empire on the Indian Ocean coast was eliminated.

Of course, everything that later proved that Li Zhaogui was the emperor of India after all, and his policies were not conducive to the empire in everything. For example, he carried forward his father Li Jundu's foreign policy in many aspects, so that the Hindustan Empire and the entire subcontinent could closely connect economic exchanges with Europe, rather than choosing the empire as a partner.

Moreover, Lee Zhaogui severely cut off the possibility of the empire's colonization of Hindustan, such as refusing imperial capital to control India's railways and ports, and strictly prohibiting imperial merchants from owning large tracts of Hindustan's land. He adopts strict policies to make up for the trade deficit and prevent the outflow of precious metals such as gold.

October 19, 34th year of the Empire.

"This plan needs to be revised. If the transportation capacity is insufficient, you can use the navy's troop transport ship..." Li Junwei had just returned to Shenjing after handling his brother's funeral from Beijing. When he went to see the emperor, he was talking to two ministers of the Cabinet Immigration Committee.

In recent years, the empire has had an economic crisis, but it is beneficial for the empire's immigration work. In the north of the empire, a large number of workers were unemployed due to the economic crisis, and in the southwest and southeast, many landless farmers have emerged. As long as they cooperate with reasonable policies, these people can immigrate overseas.

Of course, Xijin will always be the main destination for immigrants. Especially after the opening of the Suez Canal, immigrant ships departing from local ports of the empire such as Shenjing can reach Xijin directly. There is no need to get off the boat along the way, which is much more convenient.

"Everyone is busy, and the revised plan will be discussed at the imperial meeting tomorrow." Seeing Li Junwei come in, Li Junhua greeted others and asked them to go down.

He got up from behind the table and grabbed Li Junwei's shoulder: "Third brother, you have been running around for several months and are so thin."

Li Junwei's eyes were deeply engulfed. Although he had rarely met his elder brother and had not had much letters in the past ten years, he was still a little uncomfortable when he left like this. Li Junwei sat down and asked, "What's wrong with Dad?"

"The father has walked out of the shadows, the man has gone, and the father is older, and too much sadness is harmful to his body. After coming back this time, I feel that his body is not as good as before." Li Junhua said.

"Oh, the white-haired man gives the black-haired man." Li Junwei sighed, but shook his head, "Forget it, the person is gone, and being sad is useless. There is one thing that the second brother must make the decision. I heard that someone suggested that Zhao Yan be filial to the eldest brother. This is the rule of the feudal era. Zhao Yan is at the time of progress. How can he do such a thing? It's better not to go."
