The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 800

Faced with these ministers who were essentially forcing him to abdicate, Li Chengqian had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

"Very well, Your Highness agrees."

Xu Tian and the others already understood Li You's intentions regarding this matter.

And it was precisely because of this incident that they saw through those ministers who followed Li You to curry favor with the powerful.

After the court session, Li Chengqian returned to the Crown Prince's residence alone, feeling depressed.

He had absolutely no idea how to proceed with this matter.

However, since he has already agreed, Li You will definitely force him to go there as soon as possible.

Li You's pressure on him when he was completely unprepared must be an attempt to drive him to the brink of despair.

That flood-prone area is no ordinary place.

Floods have plagued southern China for many years.

After that, they were all brought under Xu Tian's control.

Li Chengqian thought that Xu Tian must have great insights into flood control, so he secretly ordered his men to go out and find Xu Tian to bring him to the palace.

The two met at the Crown Prince's residence.

Li Chengqian mentioned this matter.

This also shows that it was because of this matter that he met Xu Tian.

Just as Li Chengqian secretly summoned Xu Tian, ​​he already understood.

Why does the Crown Prince want to summon me to the palace?

Xu Tian stood up abruptly and bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

"Your Highness, you are currently shouldering the heavy responsibility of overseeing the country and absolutely cannot leave Chang'an City easily. Why don't you let me go in your place?"

Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment.

"But I had already agreed in front of all the ministers."

Li Chengqian believed that he absolutely could not be a person who broke his promises.

Who will listen to him after this?

Xu Tian said directly, "I will handle this matter, and His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not be criticized."

Li Chengqian always believed in Xu Tian's abilities.

I know he will definitely do a good job.

He then said earnestly, "It's quite obvious that Li You is targeting me. If you go there, you must be very careful."

He already knew that Li You was treacherous and cunning, and that if he really went there this time, Li You would definitely not let him go.

He had already seen all of that before.

He had long been wary of Li You, but what good was that?

Li You was simply not someone he could handle.

Xu Tian nodded in agreement and said, "I will make all the necessary arrangements after we leave the city."

Li You sending Li Chengqian to handle this matter was undoubtedly intended to ensure his death.

Xu Tian went directly into the palace, ostensibly to visit the emperor, and reported the whole affair to Li Er.

Upon hearing this, Li Er instantly flew into a rage.

"This Li You is my good son."

"I will give you a secret decree directly. Now that you have the imperial sword in your hand, you can execute those who disobey first and report later."

Xu Tian nodded.

Once the emperor finished drafting the decree, he handed it directly to Xu Tian.

"This time, I will definitely reorganize this court properly."

He went straight back to his chair and sat down, his face flushed, but his expression was cold.

Li Tai had come to this point because he wanted to seize the throne, but unexpectedly, after only a few months, Li You began to get restless.

It seems these are truly his good sons! They all want his life, and even more so, his status!
