Chapter 713: Ambition
During Li Longji's travels, some things really happened, and these things pushed Gao Lishi and Li Linfu to the opposite side of the crown prince Li Xiang.
At the beginning of Li Longji's travels, Gao Lishi sincerely wanted to help the crown prince Li Xiang deal with things inside and outside the court, but the prince Li Xiang did not accept his personal feelings.
After several exhortations, the crown prince Li Xiang was dissatisfied with being bound by the rules and regulations of the auxiliary government, and began to launch a counterattack.
One day, he deliberately assigned Gao Lishi to go to the Yuancheng Temple in the far suburbs to make a vow. Colliers did not doubt it, and went happily, not wanting to be ambushed on the way back to the city.
Dozens of black-clad warriors lay in ambush on his way back to the city,
The samurai looked like home-bred dead soldiers, and after a few rounds the sword was on Colliers' neck.
The leader shouted with a hideous face: "You all stand down, I will talk to Manager Gao, and if anyone dares to come, I will kill him." ”
Gao Lishi went to the temple and promised to bring a lot of people, but for some reason, no one dared to come forward to help him, which made Gao Lishi's heart very desperate, and he secretly said in his heart: "Is my old life going to be confessed here today? ”
"If you have anything to say, you don't have to shy away from these people. Gao Lishi suppressed the panic in his heart, and said coldly with a cold face.
The man slapped Gao Lishi hard, and said with a cruel smile: "Don't be afraid, I was just entrusted by someone to come over and pass on a word, this time I just gave you a lesson, dare to meddle in the future, be careful of your dog's head!"
Hearing this, Gao Lishi's face froze, he looked at the man deeply, and asked, "Can I know who is behind you?"
"You don't care who it is, just weigh what you've done lately that you shouldn't have done. With that, the man whistled, turned on his horse, and rode away with a group of dead soldiers.
Looking at the man in black who was gradually moving away, Gao Lishi's heart slowly sank, and his face was unusually calm. Seeing this, the group of guards beside him were terrified, and their whole bodies trembled with fright, for fear that Gao Lishi would settle accounts after the fall and investigate the unfavorable faults of their guards.
In that case, it is not a matter that can be solved by one or two people, and it may sin the nine clans.
I waited for a long time, but I didn't wait for the anger like a dark cloud.
Gao Lishi said with a cold face: "Immediately mobilize the Praetorian Guards to track down the whereabouts of these people, and be sure to find out the master behind them." ”
He had never seen Gao Lishi so serious, with an irresistible majesty all over his body, which made the guards around him tremble in their hearts, realizing that a dark battle that would stir up the imperial city might be about to happen.
Gao Lishi is not only a slave by Li Longji's side, he also serves as the general of the right prison guard, in charge of the affairs of the inner province, and the general leader of the Praetorian Guard. There is nothing that the Praetorian Guard cannot do.
The dead men had traveled more than three miles, and were just about to find a place to settle down, when a group of Praetorian Guards on tall horses appeared in front of them, and pointed their bows and crossbows and swords at the dead soldiers.
The dead men were stunned, and vaguely guessed that their whereabouts were exposed.
"Brothers, big brother has troubled you. After the leading dead man burst into a shout, he vomited black blood and swallowed.
The leader died, and the rest did not survive, and after a while, under the watchful eyes of the Praetorian Guards, one by one, went to see the king of Hades.
"Wang Tou, what Manager Gao wants is a living mouth, how can we explain this situation now?" A small soldier asked quietly.
"The manager just wants to vent his evil anger, and he knows who did it. ”
Gao Lishi did know in his heart, he knew very well in his heart what he had done recently that was annoying, who was going to warn him, but he couldn't afford to offend that person, and he couldn't deal with it. The person behind him can't deal with it, but the revenge of one palm still has to be avenged, and if he doesn't do something, it is not enough to calm the anger in his heart, so there is the tragic death of these dozens of dead soldiers.
After hearing Wang Haoran, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, report that the group of dead soldiers had all committed suicide, Gao Lishi waved his hand and said: "This matter is over here, no one is allowed to spread today's events, otherwise there will be no forgiveness." ”
Gao Lishi did not pursue it, but there was calm before the storm in the prince's mansion. The crown prince Li Xiang quietly looked at the Longyou Jiedu envoy who was kneeling on the ground, and the Hexi Jiedu envoy was the emperor's only Ming.
"All gone?" The corners of the crown prince Li Xiang's mouth showed a sinister smile of unknown meaning, and he said to the emperor who was kneeling on the ground.
"Yes------" Huangfu Weiming replied in a panic, his legs kneeling on the ground were a little swollen and numb, but he didn't dare to move half a minute, the legendary straw bale prince outside was not as weak and deceitful as he appeared.
The Prince's Mansion and Gao Lishi's every move was seen in the eyes of the shrewd Li Linfu and remembered in his heart.
He patted the table and smiled: "A straw bag is a straw bag, even if you are an emperor, you are still a straw bag." ”
Things turned out to be as Li Linfu thought, and after that, Gaolishi cautiously put himself in the position of a slave, and no longer made any suggestions that went beyond the slightest. Without Gao Lishi's participation, Li Linfu dealt with the crown prince Li Xianglai like a fish in water------
After thinking about it, Li Linfu examined what he said and did during this time, and he had a way to deal with it in his heart.
Under Li Linfu's clever explanation, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji let go of the mustard in his heart.
When no one was around, Gao Lishi, who had accompanied Li Longji for many years, asked very puzzled: "Why does the emperor watch Li Linfu compete with the crown prince, why don't you suppress his arrogance?"
Li Longji did not answer Gao Lishi's words directly, but said very sensationally: "Lux, you know my heart best over the years, I have been wronged on this trip, you can rest assured, I will help you avenge this revenge." ”
This is too level, and Gao Lishi's grievances for many days are finally understood, which makes his heart fluctuate for a while, but he said with panic on his face: "Let the emperor worry, the old slave is not wronged, and there is no revenge to be avenged." ”
Li Longji patted Gao Longji on the shoulder clearly, and didn't say anything more, and Gao Lishi no longer asked Li Longji any thoughts.
The reason why Tang Xuanzong Li Longji did not come forward to curb or stop Li Linfu's-for-tat confrontation with the crown prince Li Xiang was selfish, he did not want to see the crown prince Li Xiang full of wings and expand his power, he wanted to use the left minister Li Linfu to check and balance the crown prince Li Xiang, and use Li Xiang to suppress Li Linfu's party and personal interests, in order to achieve a balance of power.
Yang Yuhuan never worried about these things that happened in the imperial court, and she didn't care about the promotion of her mother's relatives, what she was worried about now was that Concubine Mei's fox had won the eyes of Tang Xuanzong Li Longji. I haven't been to the Hall of Eternal Life for many days.
She looked at the mirror and secretly wept and said: "Sure enough, people have no good flowers for a thousand days, and they have only been loved for a few days, and the emperor has left me behind." ”
Feeling the grievances in Yang Yuhuan's heart, I appeared in front of her and said, "Why bother to make yourself like a resentful woman? ”
"No, I want to finish Yang Yuhuan's life, and I want to put history on the right track. Blaze bit his lip resentfully, and said as if he were Yang Yuhuan's true body.
This is the rhythm that will bring disaster to the country and the people. I was so scared that I forgot to ask about the construction of the ancestral hall, so I flashed without saying hello.
