197.Chapter 197

In fact, Wang Zixian and Li Hui both knew very well that Du Chongfeng would never fall lightly to them, and they never expected him to do anything. It was enough to persuade him and cut off the right-hand man raised by Yang Qian himself. This person doesn't want to be used by them, let alone the Yang family, so just do what he wants. And the Yang family has one less sharp-eyed smart person to help, which undoubtedly adds a bit of defeat.

In the next few days, they had no time to pay attention to whether Du Chongfeng would fulfill his promise. After all, it could not be a simple task, just a few words from time to time. And their eyes had already turned to Li Ju, the heir of Jingzhou. The southbound tribe finally returned with a handwritten letter from Li Ju, which said that a clan king in Beijing had secretly sent a secret letter to Li Song, inciting him to rebel.

A few years ago, when Empress Wende died, Emperor Taizong Wen resolutely issued a holy decree to send his eldest grandson Li Ju out of the line of King Chu. And the deposed prince Li Song was ordered to become a monk because of his violent temperament and misbehavior. In this way, the line of the abolished prince, who was originally impossible to get rid of the ups and downs, was finally preserved. Although they were reluctant to give up, Li Ju and his mother Su both understood the painstaking efforts of the emperor and queen, and left Chang'an far away. As for whether Li Song can figure it out and whether there is still resentment in his heart, no one knows.

After succeeding the king of Chu, Li Ju became a distant branch of the clan, and there was no longer any threat to the throne. Li Song needless to mention, after being abolished as a commoner, he became a monk again, and the fate of the dust was broken, and it had nothing to do with the cause and effect of the world. But Rao is so, and there are people who don't intend to let them go. I still want to use their name to do great rebellion. After all, in terms of blood, Li Song is indeed the eldest son of the first emperor, and Li Ju is their only grandson at present.

"At the beginning, my grandfather and grandmother reluctantly severed their relationship, just to keep Brother Jiqing (Li Juzi), those thieves didn't give up!" Li Hui's eyes were full of murderous intent and anger, "Such an ungrateful person, everyone will be punished!" If I find out, apart from the eldest princess of Anxing, who else has delusions, I must let them sacrifice Zhaoling with blood!! "He is not an angry person, let alone a murderer, but it is just about the last wishes of Empress Wende and Emperor Taizong Wen, the two elders he respects the most, so it is difficult to hide his anger.

"The kings of the clan in the capital, except for the king of Jing who is in charge of the Zongzheng Temple, are all idle princes. They may indeed have resentment in their hearts, but they may not have the courage to rebel. After all, if you can't take power and raise troops, no matter how ambitious and bold you are, you will be helpless. The prince advised, "This matter should still fall on the eldest princess of Anxing, as well as the several county kings who hold the military power." The rest of the people may have been deceived by them, or they may be innocent and used as a trick by them. ”

"You're right." Li Hui groaned slightly, "Even if this news reaches my uncle's ears, it is just adding to suspicion." Moreover, it is not said that the most feared by my uncle is the second father and my grandfather. Their enemies are very good at framing them, and they can't say that the words and sentences in the letter can make their uncle vigilant, and then take advantage of the situation to put some so-called "evidence" on the Yue Wangfu or the Pu Wangfu, and they can be eliminated altogether.

"Don't worry for the time being, wait for the news of the heir of King Chu." Wang Zixian said again, "Moreover, this person not only contacted the king of Chu, but also the king of Jiangxia, so he can't say that he wants to use the military connections left by the previous generation of Jiangxia kings." After all, the young Jiangxia County King was well known to everyone, and he would definitely not be able to guard the subordinates left behind by his father. ”

"If you can intercept their ......messengers from it," Li Hui frowned, "Send more inconspicuous troops to Jingzhou, Ezhou and other places, and there will be a chance." However, it is important not to startle the snake. "If the target is just letters, then there are many ways to quietly steal the beams and change the pillars, and there will always be opportunities along the way.

"I'll leave this matter to Sun Dalang." The prince bowed slightly. The tribes of King Pu's Mansion naturally can't get involved in this matter, and as for his private tribes, they have long been used to doing this kind of thing that requires hiding traces, and they will definitely not leave any traces.

Just as the two of them silently continued to wait for news from Jingzhou, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the Taiji Palace, which shocked all the high-ranking officials in Chang'an City-

It is said that on that day, the concubines went to the Anren Hall to greet Queen Du, and Queen Du looked around at the surrounding warblers and Yanyan, and felt that the palace was finally lively, and she was very pleased. However, Concubine Yuan Shufei joked that the palace is far from lively enough now, and there may be more lively scenes until next year. The implication of her words is naturally that the saint will have many more children next year, and everyone is also happy. At this time, Concubine Yang Xian deliberately misinterpreted her meaning and took the initiative to recommend her cousin, a noble daughter from the Pei family in Hedong, to enter the palace.

"Hedong Pei's noble daughter?" When he heard the news, Li Hui was stunned, with a slightly strange look in his expression - could it be the noble daughter of the Pei family in Hedong that he thought?!

"......" Li Jing, the king of Tianshui County, also came back to his senses, "Why do you seem to have heard it somewhere?" Brother, didn't Wang Zixian say before that Yang Shijing's old man wanted him to marry the daughter of the Pei family in Hedong? Tsk, why are they all Hedong Pei's daughters? In the past two years, have there been many little ladies to be married in the Pei family in Hedong? ”

Princess Changning had also heard about this, and of course she wouldn't think about it as much as Li Jing. She rarely showed a look of surprise, and glanced at her brother: "The cousin recommended by Concubine Yang Xian will naturally not be a distant relative, but the daughter of her aunt. "Wooing her cousin to fight her cousin may be the only way that Concubine Yang Xian can think of to solve the dilemma. It's a pity that this posture is too ugly, and it tears off the little face left of Hongnong Yang's face. Who would think now that the two Yang girls in the palace are really "sisterly love"?

Li Hui was speechless for a while, and thought a little rebelliously in his heart: How could all Zixian's marriage be taken away by his uncle? First, Yang Banniang, who secretly proposed marriage, looked down on the head of Xinke Jiadi, and took the initiative to enter the palace to compete with her cousin for favor; Later, Pei's daughter, who was planning to propose marriage, was recommended to the palace by Concubine Yang Xian. Could it be that this is the destiny of heaven? Is it destined that Zixian's marriage is shallow?

"What do you think?" Princess Changning saw that his expression was complicated, but she didn't see it, "Will this move ruin our previous layout?" If the balance between these three sisters is maintained, or even if they are smarter to put aside their prejudices for the time being, and unite, Yuan Shufei's aunt and nephew will definitely not be their opponents. I can't tell when, they will calculate A-Niang. ”

"Since Yang Banniang entered the palace, the division of Hongnong Yang's forces has become a foregone conclusion. As for the impact that Pei Niangzi will bring, it depends on who she is closer to. After all, they are all cousins of their relatives, and they are close to them just because Concubine Yang Xian recommended her to enter the palace, but they ignore the powerful Hongnong County Mansion, which is not done by smart people. Li Huidao remembered that Concubine Yang Xian sent someone to Princess Anxing's mansion a few days ago.

Could it be that this is the clever plan that Princess Anxing gave to Concubine Yang Xian at that time? However, how can they guarantee that Pei Niangzi will definitely help Concubine Yang Xian, instead of switching to Yang Banniang?

However, Concubine Yang Xian has no other choice. There are already two daughters of the Yang family in the palace, and it is naturally impossible for the Hongnong Yang family to send another person, otherwise the reputation among the families will fall again and again, and Queen Du will never allow it lightly. Therefore, even if there are still a few flower-like concubines in the second room who have never been married, it is useless for Concubine Yang Xian. What's more, no one in the second room has come out, and the in-laws have long since declined, so they can't bring any help to Concubine Yang Xian.

However, Concubine Yang Xian and Yang Banniang do not agree with each other, and sooner or later they will part ways or even fight for life and death. At that time, the Hongnong County Mansion will only support his daughter, and it will never continue to be Concubine Yang Xian's support. Concubine Yang Xian was suffering from isolation, so she naturally had to find someone to rely on for herself. The backgrounds of those new concubines in the palace are not comparable to those of a wealthy family like Hongnong Yang, and they will never be able to sincerely attach themselves to Concubine Yang Xian. Instead of painstakingly co-opting these new concubines who may betray at any time, it is better to find another caring person to help him.

Hedong Pei's is her best choice at present, and perhaps her only choice. After all, when it comes to blood, it is also the daughter of her aunt. The cousin and the cousin are just separated by a surname.

And the Pei family in Hedong is not only equivalent to the Yang family, but also has been a confidant of the imperial court since the Gaozu Dynasty. Of course, there is a branch of Xuanhe to pay homage to the prime minister, there is also a branch of the owner, and there is also a branch of the decline and prosperity. The southern family who dedicated this Pei lady Pei is a relatively unknown room. They must also be in dire need of this opportunity to gain more glory and wealth. Under the wishful thinking, it is natural to hit it off.

What's more, there is no Pei woman in the palace at present. If the Pei family enters the palace, who knows if the Pei family in Hedong will work together tacitly to take the opportunity to get involved in the palace? Or even blended with royal blood?

"The temperament of this Pei Niangzi, almost no one in Chang'an City knows, and we can only stand still for the time being." Princess Changning frowned slightly, "At that time, A-Niang also hesitated for a moment before agreeing." After all, the number of people in Grandpa's harem is not too large now. "In the harem of the Son of Heaven, four concubines, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and eighty-one royal wives. Regardless of the high position or status, the number of concubines is not full, so naturally they can continue to choose.

"Rest assured, this case will never be opened again." Li Hui said, "After all, my uncle doesn't want to work too hard and waste money. If the governors of various places recommend beauties to Beijing and disturb the people everywhere, it is definitely not what my uncle wants. "In the final analysis, the saint just wants to give birth to a few more princes with qualifications that can be cultivated.

The king of Tianshui next to him listened to it for a long time, and finally came back to his senses: "Hehe, Yang Lao'er wanted to be a matchmaker, but was intercepted by Concubine Yang Xian?" Some people's luck is really good-hey, isn't this cheap Du Shilang? ”

Princess Changning couldn't help but wonder: "What does this have to do with Du Shishilang?" ”

Li Jing laughed and told her what they had agreed before: "No, we have already given Du Shishilang an idea, and in return, he has to help us no matter what." Hurry up and think of a new task for him. Another day, I will go and sue him myself. ”

Li Hui glanced at him: "You seem to be getting very close to Du Shishilang recently?" ”

"He's also a very interesting boy." Li Jing smiled, "You won't feel bored when you talk to him." ”

Li Hui really couldn't bear to hit his excited cousin: Maybe Du Shishilang's feelings are completely opposite to yours?
