Du Ye did not have a good impression of Li Tang, because Du Qi had also sacrificed a lot in the Tang dynasty. However, the Du family was exploited everywhere. From the beginning to the end, it was Li Tang who was constantly provoking Li Xia. On the other hand, it was Li Tang who never took the initiative to attack. Therefore, Li Tang had only himself to blame for everything that happened to Li Tang.
Now that Du Ye knew that Li Zhi was still alive and had even escaped, Du Ye wanted to destroy the other party.
He would not let the other party get away scot-free.
Especially if he did not remove the roots, there would be endless trouble in the future.
Du Ye said again, "Father, you are in the prime of your life now, so it is still too far to think about the future. Right now, I only need to study hard. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "Father's considerations are never far away. Moreover, father will not be the Emperor forever. The reason why I brought you out to train now is so that you can take over Xia Xia as soon as possible. "
Du Ye said, "Father, what are you going to do?"
At this moment, Du Ye was even a little frightened and uneasy. Because Du Qi was the backbone of Du Ye. No matter how many people there were in the imperial court, no matter how Du Ruhui taught him, no matter how many people supported him, in the end, Du Ye regarded Du Qi as his pillar of support.
With Du Qi around, Du Ye would not panic.
Without Du Qi around, Du Ye would panic.
Du Qi said, "I have an agreement with your grandfather that I will not continue to attack other places in the short term. Even if it is the Persian Empire, I will not attack for the time being. However, it does not mean that I will not attack all the time. Of course, it may not be the Persian Empire. It may also be other places. In short, I can't stay in the country forever, so when the time comes, I will pass the throne to you. You will ascend the throne and preside over everything in Xia Xia. "
Du Qi actually felt that being the Emperor was meaningless.
He might as well be a Young Marquis.
Back in the days of the Tang dynasty, it was not bad to be a young marquis. Now, Du Qi had arranged everything for Xia Xia to flourish. Therefore, Du Qi had long planned to relieve himself of the burden and hand over the tasks in his hands to others.
When Du Ye heard this, he was suddenly shocked.
Du Qi's news had caught him off guard.
Du Ye didn't expect that Du Qi would pass on his position in advance. At this time, Du Ye thought about it and understood why Du Qi had brought him out.
This was something he had prepared for a long time.
Du Ye said, "Father, I'm still young. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear such a heavy responsibility."
He no longer called him father, but changed the way he addressed him. After all, the matter involved was too important. In fact, Du Ye couldn't wait to return to the Imperial Capital immediately and ask his grandfather and mother to persuade Du Qi, hoping that Du Qi would give up on this idea.
When Du Qi saw the change in Du Ye's expression, he roughly understood Du Ye's thoughts. He smiled and said, "Ye 'er, you are the crown prince of the Great Xia. Sooner or later, you are going to inherit the Xia Country. If you inherit Xia Xia earlier, I will be able to settle everything for you and shelter you from the wind and rain even if something goes wrong during your reign. "
"Therefore, you can do whatever you want now."
"Do everything you can."
"As long as everything is beneficial to Xia Xia, you can give it a try."
"This is the reason why you have to ascend the throne in advance."
Du Qi continued, "Of course, there's an even bigger reason. I don't like being the Emperor. As the ruler of a country, I do have a lot of power in my hands. However, I don't like to do such things, nor do I like to stay in the palace all the time. As for me, I prefer to expand my territory and do my own things. "
Du Ye nodded.
In his heart, he somewhat understood Du Qi, but he also didn't quite understand it.
This was because in Du Ye's opinion, as the Emperor of a country, his words were law and everything was under his control. This was a good thing, so why would he say that he wasn't happy?
Du Ye thought for a moment before asking, "Father, when do you plan on leaving?"
Du Ye and Du Qi had an extremely good father-son relationship.
Therefore, he could casually ask.
In this situation, if it were any other crown prince, who would dare to ask their father when he would abdicate?
That was absolutely impossible.
Asking would be courting death.
However, Du Qi was different. He was open-minded about this. Therefore, after hearing Du Ye's words, he said, "I will complete the handover in a year or two at most. When the time comes, you will be in charge. Besides, you are no longer young and have your own ideas. You have also seen the difference in the world. Although there will definitely be many difficulties, you still have a long life. Take it slowly. In addition, you have the cabinet officials at the helm for you. You don't have to worry. "
Du Ye said, "This son is like father."
"Rustle, rustle, rustle!!"
At this moment, there was a series of footsteps. It was a soldier who came to Du Qi's side and said, "Your Majesty, someone is coming to Li Shimin's tomb. It seems that they are people who have entered the mountains to hunt. "
Du Qi said, "You guys just hide in the dark. Don't worry about it. Since they are hunting, they will do their thing, and we will do ours. Don't worry about all this. "
The soldier nodded, turned around, and left.
Du Qi and Du Ye were still chatting about the next arrangements. Most of the time, it was Du Qi talking while Du Ye listened quietly. After all, it was useless for Du Ye to worry at the moment. He could only listen to Du Qi.
Just as the two of them were chatting, another pair of people arrived.
There were about a dozen people.
The leader was a handsome and valiant young man. Beside him, there were ten bodyguards. They were all dressed in martial arts attire, and each of them was a martial artist. They were not ordinary people.
The young man strode over and saw Du Qi and Du Ye beside Li Shimin's tomb.
Obviously, they were here to mourn Li Shimin.
The young man's eyes became sharp. He walked straight over and asked, "You two are here to mourn Li Shimin? Could it be that you have something to do with him? "
Du Qi said, "You don't have to worry about that."
The young man's eyes were even sharper. He said in a deep voice, "I can't not worry. This is now the world of Great Xia. Now, you are publicly mourning the previous emperor. Could it be that you are the remnants of the previous dynasty? "
The young man was called Liu Che.
He was Liu Che's son.
Liu Che was now the provincial governor of Shaozhou and was in charge of Shaozhou. As his son, Liu Che's status naturally rose. He was not a playboy. He just liked hunting, especially martial arts. He always thought that he was too young and missed the war that Xia Xia established the country. If he could have served Xia Xia earlier, he would have made meritorious contributions.
Unfortunately, Liu Che did not have the chance.
Liu Che's eyes were sharp. He said in a deep voice, "Men, surround them."
The ten guards he brought with him all pulled out their swords in unison, and their gazes became incomparably sharp. After all, Liu Che just said that the people in front of them were most likely the remnants of the previous dynasty. Moreover, Du Qi was publicly mourning, so it was even more likely.
Du Qi shook his head and chuckled after hearing that. He said, "You misunderstood. I'm not a descendant of the Li family, nor am I a remnant of the Tang dynasty. It's just that I have some connections with Li Shimin. Now that I'm passing by Jade Mountain, I came to take a look. "
