Chapter 762

Why don't you look at yourself and see what kind of mother you are?"

If a mistake was made, it's just me alone failing to teach my son?

Under the impulse, Li Er exploded with the anger he had suppressed for a long time.

How could Zhangsun Wugou take such abuse?

Here, Zhangsun Wugou could command the guards and eunuchs. But Li Er, he could not!

"Someone, the Great Tang envoy is being rude; drag him out and give him twenty strokes of the court cane!"

In fact, Zhangsun Wugou was just trying to scare Li Er.

There was no one around; she had sent them all far away.

The content of their conversation could not be heard by others.

Li Er softened immediately.

Here, he didn't even have a single helper by his side; wasn't he just someone to be molded and shaped at will?

"Guanyinbi, I was wrong! Will you allow me to go back and think about it?"

Zhangsun Wugou hadn't expected Li Er to agree in the first place.

Those who truly abdicate are either wise rulers of ancient times or those forced into a dead end.

And Li Er was neither of those.

The reason she spoke to Li Er this way was to remind him that the Li Tang empire had no successors!

After he passed away, rather than handing the empire to those unworthy princes, it would be better to consider surrendering to Great Qin early!

Zhangsun Wugou waved her hand, signaling Li Er to withdraw.

She no longer had any thoughts about this man.

After Li Er returned to the hostel, he was still feeling indignant.

Guanyinbi has changed!

She has changed to the point where she doesn't care about him at all, and she has become someone who feels somewhat like a stranger.

She actually asked him to surrender to Great Qin?

How unreasonable!

The depressed Li Er, being in Great Qin, had only Fang Xuanling to talk to.

"Xuanling, do you think there is any need for the Li Tang empire to be passed down?"

Fang Xuanling was startled.

How could the Emperor ask such a question?

This made it truly difficult for a subject to answer!

"Old Li, don't think wildly; the Li family is the thousand-year-old great clan most qualified to sit on the throne!"

Fang Xuanling saying this was purely flattery.

The imperial Li clan belonged to a branch of the Longxi Li clan and had been a great clan for several hundred years. Calling it a thousand years was a slight exaggeration.

Fang Xuanling was looking at it from the perspective of a great clan.

If the greatest clan in the world doesn't sit on the throne, should it be handed to those small clans?

In fact, there was another reason for Fang Xuanling to flatter Li Er like this.

Originally, when the ranking of great clans was first made, the Boling Cui clan was first, and the Fan Yanglu clan was second.

These were the four surnames collectively referred to by the world, and adding the Qinghe Cui clan made it the Five Great Clans.

The Li clan was just a powerful local clan from Longyou and couldn't even make the list.

But Li Er insisted on issuing an imperial decree, forcibly ranking the Li clan first.

Thus, with the help of the imperial decree, the Li clan became the number one clan in the world!

Being the imperial clan, it was somewhat justifiable.

But to say that only the Li clan was fit to sit on this throne was somewhat self-deceiving.

The Xingyang Zheng clan was third, and the Longcheng Wang clan was fourth.

It was changed to the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans!

Alas, Li Er just loved to hear this.

He recovered a bit of his confidence.

He said to Fang Xuanling.

"Xuanling, only you in the world understand me! Sure enough, only the Li family is fit to sit on this throne!"

Although Li Er said this, Zhangsun Wugou's words had already pierced deep into his heart like a sharp thorn.

The previous Crown Prince, Li Chengqian, had been proven to be a fake and was already dead.

The two sons Li Er favored most, Li Ke had rebelled against Great Tang, and Li Tai was ruthless and plotting to kill his brother.

All of this made Li Er very disappointed.

But by comparison, he still held great hope for Li Tai.

It was just killing his brother; he had done that himself. Although he didn't like it, it wasn't a big deal.

"Xuanling, after returning to Jin Ling this time, I will make Li Tai the Crown Prince; what do you think?"

How could Fang Xuanling dare to speak recklessly about this matter?

He could only agree with Li Er's intention.

"The country cannot be without a crown prince, and at the moment, only the Prince of Wei is suitable."
