Chapter 333: You come to be emperor

After seeing Lu Chaoxi coming out, Li Chengzong saw his nephew Li Xuanhao, standing not far away, as if waiting for him.
He stopped and looked at his competitor, his eyes full of the taste of a winner.
"Xuanhao, are you waiting for me?"
"Uncle Thirteen..." Li Xuanhao couldn't laugh.
"How about coming one step earlier than me? How are you talking with Patriarch Lu?"
Li Xuanhao's face was ironic. Although he didn't speak, his face clearly revealed the situation.
Seeing this, Li Chengzong felt even more happy.
To be honest, Li Chengzong panicked when he heard that Li Xuanhao went to see Lu Chaoxi, the head of the Lu family at the first time.
Can you not panic? All fools know the current situation.
Although his father had just died and he was still in the hands of the Lu family, Li Chengzong shed tears in front of outsiders at most. In fact, he wanted to say that there was something special in his heart... In fact, there are also royal or emperor rights. It's as big as before.
As for the father? Go back a little bit.
Moreover, even if it is a puppet emperor, what about it?
The power is greatly reduced, and he can only become the puppet's throne, or if he fails to fight for the throne, others don't know if he is chosen. Anyway, he must choose the former with his eyes closed.
It's not that he doesn't understand his biggest competitor. If Li Xuanhao is in the top position, he won't be able to survive.
I believe Li Xuanhao is the same. Because if Li Chengzong becomes the emperor, he won't let his nephew live.
In fact, Li Chengzong didn't know much about the overall situation and the plans of his father.
But guessing can also guess a general idea.
When the ancestor Lu Qinglu came to the palace and told the facts and combined his guesses, he immediately realized that what Lu Qing said was true.
Then, he and a group of direct descendants of Emperor Yan were taken away by the monks of the Lu family, and they were taken care of.
They are not treated badly in terms of treatment. They have everything they should, but don't even think about free movement. They can only move in a designated area.
People can't move, and their minds can't be idle.
Li Chengzong quickly figured out that the good days of the Li dynasty were gone, and he wanted to be a powerful emperor in the future.
But being a puppet emperor is better than not being a puppet emperor.
Moreover, this puppet emperor is not so good to be.
In this matter, the person who really has the final say is still Yunxiaozong.
But now, where does he contact the people of Yunxiaozong?
If you think about it again, the Lu Family's power also looks very strong now. Moreover, it is said that the ancestor Lu Qinglu did the work in Yandu this time. In the future, the Lu family will have a great say in how to deal with the court.
But... after all, Lu Qing killed the emperor father, if this is too fast to throw his father and his enemies, would it be too ugly?
But just hesitating, he heard the news that his nephew, Li Xuanhao, was already in action.
So shameless?
You are shameless, so what face do I need?
Li Chengzong has an old relationship with the Lu family, but who knows how unscrupulous his nephew will be? What if Li Xuanhao sells the Li family and the court to sell it harder?
No, I have to sell it quickly.
Anyway, they were all sold out. Relying on the friendship with the Lu family, Li Chengzong felt that he should still be able to sell better than Li Xuanhao.
The result is indeed the same.
After walking around in front of his nephew with the attitude of a winner, he returned to his small room less than ten feet in radius, and pondered to himself again:
"Although it seems that I should be able to win, Li Xuanhao, this kid, is always a trouble to live."
"I have to find a way to kill him in the future..."
"This has to be carefully planned. After all, when you become a puppet emperor in the future, you may not have that much power..."
"But killing Li Xuanhao shouldn't provoke Yunxiaozong or the Lu family?"
Li Chengzong was dreaming of being an emperor, while on the other side, his nephew Li Xuanhao was not yet ready to give up.
Although Li Xuanhao knew that the situation was already very critical, he had to find a way to fight and couldn't just wait and die.
...
Lu Chaoxi also knew about the nastyness between Li Chengzong and Li Xuanhao's uncles and nephews.
Not only did he shook his head, the first thought in his head was to reflect on the Lu Family:
"We still have to pay attention to it in the future. Our Lu family can't have this kind of offspring..."
Still have lingering fears.
As the patriarch, the emperor of a country, and the most powerful monk in the family, Li Shiwen should be the spiritual leader of the Li family and the pillar of everything. But after his death, the atmosphere of the entire Li family was really strange in Lu Chaoxi's eyes.
He had already done it, and the royal family was ready to riot as a whole. Even if the father came personally before and issued a warning, it would be of little use. After all, this is a deep hatred that cannot be shared, and if they do not resist, it is obvious that their Li family will become the dust in history. This fish is dead and the net is broken, right?
As a result, it didn't.
What Lu Chaoxi predicted that the Lu family might have spent a lot of effort in suppressing the Li family, but nothing happened. Even if the royal family handed over all the blood of the emperor's direct lineage, they would have handed over...
Then, they are already prisoners. Li Chengzong and Li Xuanhao are still fighting for the position of a puppet emperor. They tore each other, and even want to put each other to death, even shamelessly, to kill their fathers and enemies. Collusion...
This incident had some impact on Lu Chaoxi.
Although the Lu family did not see such signs for the time being, he decided to pay close attention to the construction of the family's spiritual civilization in the future. Such unscrupulous descendants must not come out.
When it comes back to the matter, Lu Chaoxi actually has some thoughts about who will be the puppet emperor Li Chengzong and Li Xuanhao.
Of course he knew that the final decision on this matter was in Yunxiaozong's hands. But no matter what, their Lu family has at least a right to make suggestions. Moreover, when both Li Xuanhao and Li Chengzong were under the control of the Lu family, even if the two of them wanted to find someone from Yunxiaozong to make a deal, they had no chance.
Based on this thinking, basically which one the Lu family supports, that can almost be determined.
Anyway, it was a puppet emperor, who had little to do with Yunxiaozong.
In fact, it has little to do with the Lu family.
Who of these two becomes the puppet emperor, will the court still be dogs in front of Yunxiaozong and Qingfengmen in the future? It is nothing more than treating Yunxiaozong as the master, and Qingfengmen or Lu Family as the little master.
In a sense, neither Li Chengzong nor Li Xuanhao has any trading capital.
Transactions must be able to come up with things and have the strength to protect the results of the transaction. And the two of them, or the Li family, and even the entire court system, now neither have the power to protect themselves, and the things they can sell are worthless.
In Lu Chaoxi's eyes, all the actions of the two of them are not making a deal, and they are not even selling. At best, they are just begging.
Since it's begging, it should be a little pleasing to the eye, and there should be no problem.
Of these two people, although Lu Chaoxi looked down on either, but Li Chengzong was relatively more pleasing to the eye. In any case, this Li Chengzong was somewhat helpful to the Lu family back then, but Li Xuanhao had the experience of opposing the Lu family, and he was not pleased by Lu Chaoxi.
This matter, he is almost set.
When he thought about it, if his father didn't ask about it, he didn't need to report it.
It's a small matter, don't bother your father.
Now the battle on the Pingzhou front is almost over. In the follow-up, we had to start discussing with Yunxiaozong about the reconstruction of Yan's order after the war. At that time, he will talk to Yun Xiaozong about this matter, and he should be able to maintain stability and let Li Chengzong take the place.
Just thinking about it, his father's voice suddenly sounded in his heart.
"Chaoxi, I want to tell you something."
Lu Chaoxi has become very accustomed to his father's ability to travel tens of thousands of miles away, without borrowing foreign objects, and to speak clearly.
"Father, please speak." After responding, he habitually waited for his father's instructions.
However, Lu Qing's next sentence made Lu Chaoxi, who had always been steady and practical, almost jumped up.
"You become Emperor Dayan."
"what???"
...
Let me be emperor?
I didn't expect this.
Lu Chaoxi felt a little flustered.
From a rational point of view, the current position of Emperor Dayan is nothing remarkable. However, from the emotional point of view, from the first reaction point of view, the word "emperor" always has a special meaning.
From the time Lu Chaoxi was born, even when he was young and fanciful, he thought about becoming a great monk who stood upright, thought that he would lead his family all the way up, and even dreamed that he could become a real fairy.
But I really never imagined that I would become emperor.
Really speaking, is it difficult to become a fairy or to be an emperor? It must be too difficult to achieve a true immortal. In fact, in the one-third acre of Yan Kingdom, let alone the illusory true immortal, even if it wants to achieve the stage of Dharma, it is much more difficult than being an emperor.
But things are not calculated like this, the emperor, after all, represents the pinnacle of secular power. Nominally, the most powerful person in a country.
This is really a very special experience.
After the emotional shock, Lu Chaoxi's sanity quickly returned to the line and began to analyze the pros and cons.
He thought for a while, and said, "My father...is this a foregone conclusion?"
He wouldn't think that this matter was a decision made by Lu Qing after a random thought. Lu Qing's combat power and influence in this battle were all top-notch, so that the entire Yan State could not ignore it.
But after all, there is such a behemoth as Yunxiaozong sitting on it. The position of this emperor is not important at all, which person from the Li family will sit on; but if you want to sit in the Lu family, that is a very important thing. . Being able to make such a decision, Lu Chaoxi believed that his father must have had a very clear communication with Yunxiaozong.
"Not really." Lu Qing replied, "What do you think?"
"This matter is good or bad."
Next, Lu Chaoxi expressed his thoughts without any reservation.
"The benefits are naturally there. After my Lu family became the Dayan imperial clan, no matter what the Yunxiaozong above, at least, we became the orthodox ruler of Dayan. The entire imperial system was used by me and the influence of the family. , Will be able to quickly get out of the restrictions of Feiyun Prefecture and spread to the entire Yan State."
"Our previous plan was to bring Jinzhou and half of Jizhou into the sphere of influence of the family. If the throne is in my Lu family, then this will be very helpful for us to quickly take over Jinzhou and Jizhou. Many Resistance will disappear spontaneously. If you really encounter opponents, you can fight against officials in the name of the court and become famous."
"But the disadvantages are also many."
"The throne not only symbolizes power and orthodoxy, but is also a shackle. Taking history as a lesson, Yunxiaozong's vigilance against the Dayan imperial family has always been very serious. After we become the royal family, this vigilance cannot be reduced or reduced, or even After this breakthrough attempt by Li Shiwen, it will become more serious."
"Secondly, the Li family has ruled Dayan for more than three thousand years. They are regarded as true orthodoxy in Yan Kingdom. After we take over, whether we can make good use of the name of'Orthodox' is actually open to question. Compared with supporting Li Chengzong as the puppet emperor, if we directly become the emperor of the Yan Kingdom, then some contradictions that can be hidden and eased will most likely be detonated in advance."
...
Lu Chaoxi talked a lot in one breath, and in the process, Lu Qing listened carefully to the side and did not make any comments.
After Lu Chaoxi finished speaking, he cautiously asked, ‘What’s your opinion, father? After that, he said:
"There are a lot of ideas like me."
"Uh... what is the decision of your father?"
"I haven't agreed to Yunxiaozong. Didn't this come to ask your opinion first? Tell me about your final judgment. Do you think we have to agree or refuse?"
"I think ~EbookFREE.me~ should refuse." Lu Chaoxi said, "We can also use the court's righteousness by supporting Li Chengzong. Moreover, many contradictions will not be directly in our hands. When an outbreak occurs, the pressure we face will be much smaller."
After listening to his son's opinion, Lu Qing finally expressed his opinion:
"But I actually feel that if this opportunity is missed, it will be extremely difficult to find it again in the future."
"You also know that if you help another Li family to become Emperor Dayan, it will be a puppet, but it may not necessarily be a puppet of the Lu family..."
"Hundred-legged insects die but not stiff. The Li family ruled Dayan for thousands of years. When the imperial court had an orthodox emperor on it, what do you think of those traditionalists who support them as orthodox? We? Jinzhou and Jizhou, can we live in peace?"
"The most important thing is that if we are not the emperor, will Yunxiaozong not be wary of us? I am afraid, it will only be more vigilant."
