"I'm afraid I can't get rid of the bad habits I've developed over the years." Yuan Ziyan laughed at herself.

"Ziyan, let's think about Li Shimin!" Li Tao said angrily.

"Yes and no." Yuan Ziyan patiently explained: "Several of Shimin's children are very close to me, Chengqian, Ke'er, Tai'erzhi'er, etc., when they were born, I was by my side, and I also hugged them when I was young. Now that Chengqian and Tai'er are no longer alive, there is only one Ke'er left who is adrift, how can I rest assured? ”

"Ziyan, if it weren't for the two of us obstructing it, I heard that Li Ke was recruiting troops and horses recently, with bad intentions. The eldest grandson Wuji has already sent people to take strict precautions, and if he goes at this time, he will definitely ask for his own hardships. Li Shan frowned and reminded.

"What the eldest brother said is very true, and it is precisely because there are too many rumors about Ke'er in the court that I want to see him even more. If I knew that my child would be in great danger and didn't rescue him, I would feel guilty for the rest of my life. Yuan Ziyan looked at the two sincerely, and added: "Of course, I can go by myself, and I won't affect the two of them." ”

Ziyan, saying this foolish thing again. How can I, Li Tao, be greedy for life and afraid of death, I have been fighting and killing for Li Tang Jiangshan for half my life, can I still kill me for this matter today? Li Tao immediately expressed his position.

"Well, I'll go with me, and I'll take care of it on the way." Li Shan finally said.

Yuan Ziyan was very moved in her heart, got up, and solemnly saluted: "Ziyan has thanked the two brothers, there is nothing to return in this life, if there is an afterlife......"

"Ziyan, please get up quickly, you and I don't have to be so polite. Speaking of which. If it weren't for the purple smoke, I wouldn't know where I was reincarnated. Li Shan hurriedly stepped forward and helped Yuan Ziyan up.

Yuan Ziyan stayed at Moon Villa. Naturally, it also attracted the attention of the imperial court, especially the eldest grandson Wuji, who sent a lot of people to investigate, but Mochizuki Villa was very well guarded, and every time he came, the gate was closed, and he couldn't hear too much movement inside.

As for Li Shan, there is very little news about him. However, he was kind and charitable, and many monasteries and poor people have received his favors. Presumably, he can't do anything with him lightly.

The eldest grandson Wuji had no choice but to give up, or secretly ordered someone to continue to monitor, he didn't believe that Yuan Ziyan would stay inside. This time out of the palace must also have her ulterior purpose.

Sure enough. Yuan Ziyan only stayed for one day, and then a big carriage came out of Mochizuki Villa, and the target was the south. The eldest grandson Wuji was suspicious, and suddenly realized that Yuan Ziyan's direction was Anzhou, and he must be going to Li Ke, the king of Wu.

As a national teacher, he also took Da Sikong and Fujia to King Wu, what else can he do?

The eldest grandson Wuji did not dare to ignore this matter. On the one hand, he sent someone to secretly monitor Yuan Ziyan, and on the other hand, he hurried into the palace. and informed Li Zhi of the matter.

"Uncle, since my stepmother has left the palace, it is normal to walk around, what precautions are there to take here?" Li Zhi asked puzzled.

"Your Majesty, I recently heard that King Wu secretly recruited nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he was quite close to the generals of the previous dynasty, I am afraid that he has bad intentions!" The eldest grandson Wuji said.

"I have also heard about the third brother, but the stepmother has no dissenting intentions, so she is worried, so she went to visit." Li Zhi waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. Wu Wang Li Ke is unpredictable, and the national teacher is sneaky, in case the two of them unite, and then respond to the people in the palace, the consequences are unimaginable! The eldest grandson Wuji arched his hand.

"My lord, I just talked about King Wu and my stepmother, why did you talk about me again?" Wu Mei, who was serving on the side, said dissatisfiedly with a big belly.

"Since the Han Dynasty, concubines and concubines in the Later Court are not allowed to interfere in politics, and Wu Zhaoyi is also asked to self-discipline." The eldest grandson Wuji said unceremoniously.

"Your Excellency's words are wrong, the two mentioned by Shicai, one is His Majesty's siblings, and the other is his stepmother, how can this palace sit idly by? If you are afraid of the so-called interference of the Houting Court, and everyone in the Houting Court is in danger, what is there in this palace, isn't it a cold palace everywhere? Wu Mei said coldly.

The eldest grandson Wuji, who was choked with words, couldn't argue, he was really a powerful character, and he was sharp and didn't let it go at all.

"Then with Wu Zhaoyi's words, Your Majesty cares about the feelings of brotherhood, and you want to ignore the plot against usurpation? And Zhaoyi only knows the mother-son relationship between the national teacher and His Majesty, so doesn't King Wu also have to be honored as the national teacher's stepmother? The eldest grandson Wuji straightened his neck and asked, "Let me ask Wu Zhaoyi, what is the purpose of the national teacher going to Anzhou quietly?" ”

"First of all, the stepmother is out of the palace and moves freely, so there is no need to report everything to the court. Moreover, there is no solid evidence for King Wu's rebellion, and I heard that Anzhou is well governed, the population has doubled, and there are more soldiers and horses. Wu Mei turned her head to look at Li Zhi again, and said emotionally: "The stepmother is the most affectionate, Xu heard the rumors and wanted to check it, even if King Wu is anti-hearted, the stepmother will try her best to persuade and calm the waves." ”

"What Zhaoyi said is reasonable." Li Zhi nodded, and before leaving, Yuan Ziyan also told himself that he wanted to find out the people's feelings outside, but the eldest grandson Wuji's face was not easy to refute, and he persuaded him: "My uncle's heart of fist moved me, but my stepmother and daughter have made great contributions to the Han family, so I shouldn't be so vigilant behind my back." ”

"I understand." The eldest grandson Wuji nodded unwillingly, the two people in front of him sang and harmonized, invulnerable, even if he persuaded Li Zhi to make some moves now, it was hard to say that Wu Mei would not blow the wind on the pillow, or in vain.

"However, in order to calm the suspicion between the court and China, and at the same time let His Majesty enjoy the brotherhood, the minister suggested that King Wu be transferred from Anzhou to serve in the capital." The eldest grandson Wuji said: "In this way, not only can the forces of King Anzhou of Wu be dismantled, but also the power of grace and power, and King Wu can also serve the imperial court." ”

"That's great!" Li Zhi immediately nodded in agreement, the brothers died and divided, the big tree they climbed before is still there, but they don't see the old people, and they are very lonely.

And Li Zhi also wants to have a completely own strength, Wu King Li Ke was suppressed by his father Li Shimin, and he was depressed for many years, and if he promoted him, he must be grateful to Dade and swear to die.

"According to my uncle's opinion, what position should I give to the third brother?"

"The first emperor was alive and was the most martial, so the prince did not practice martial arts to defend himself and keep fit, and the prince was previously under control and did not read much. King Wu is both civil and military, and he can be crowned the prince and the prince. Eldest Sun Wuji thought about it and said, in fact, he wanted to control Li Ke in the East Palace, which was equivalent to being within his jurisdiction.

"Uncle is very thoughtful, let's wait a few days before issuing an edict." Li Zhi finally made a decision.

After the eldest grandson Wuji left, Wu Mei came to Li Zhi with heavy steps, and knelt down with great difficulty: "Please forgive your majesty." ”

"Zhaoyi is pregnant, please get up quickly!" Li Zhi hurriedly said.

"It is a felony for Wu Mei to interfere in the government and cause His Majesty to have a dispute with the eldest grandson."

"Hehe, it turned out to be for this. Zhaoyi is strange for favoring my uncle and ignoring your face? ”

"How can Bollywood be such a stingy person, just thinking about his stepmother, and arguing with the eldest grandson in a hurry, making His Majesty embarrassed, and I am very remorseful at this time." Wu Mei said and shed tears: "The eldest grandson is loyal, but the stepmother is not loyal to the monarch and the country, it is nothing more than her daughter being ridiculed and discussed." Although Bollywood misses his stepmother, he never bears to urge him to return to the palace. Sincerely, the stepmother did for the Tang Dynasty, as many as stars, countless, but every day is a light dish, plain clothes, in addition to the night pearl used for lighting, Bollywood really doesn't know what precious jewelry the stepmother has. It is said that the stepmother is selfish, what is the use of her wanting this Tang Dynasty? If this is the case, he should have married the first emperor, and the emperor and queen should have been in the same dynasty and controlled the power. ”

Wu Mei said in one breath, Li Zhi sighed, quickly helped her up, and sighed heavily: "Uncle is really too cautious. ”

"Is it prudent to exterminate all who are not good for it? The eldest grandson of Shicai accused Wu Mei of colluding with his stepmother, and he still shuddered when he thought about it at this time, and begged His Majesty for permission, and when he gave birth to a child, he would let Wu Mei leave the palace, and it would be better to live a hard life than to tremble. ”

Wu Mei said and cried, Li Zhina was very distressed, and hurriedly took it in his arms to comfort him, and it took a long time for Wu Mei to stop her tears, but because of too much mood swings, she had fetal gas, and the imperial doctor ordered that she must stay in bed for seven days, otherwise she will be born prematurely in the high month, and the mother and child will be in danger.

There was a lot of chaos in the palace, and Li Zhi would enlighten Wu Mei, who was often in tears, as long as he had time, and repeatedly assured her that he would never let her be hurt in any way.

Li Zhi has long been dissatisfied with his uncle's eldest grandson Wuji's approach. In recent years, the impeachment of the eldest grandson Wuji has been as many as snowflakes, and it is inevitable that some mistakes will be magnified, and Li Zhi has been ignoring it because he is an old minister of the Three Dynasties and his own uncle.

But right now, Li Zhi also feels that the eldest grandson Wuji has indeed changed, his personality is elusive, and he has a lot of protégés, and there are almost all walks of life who have the eldest grandson Wuji.

The last time the eldest grandson Wuji celebrated his birthday, it was not a five-year small life, a ten-year birthday, and the eldest grandson Wuji was relatively low-key and did not announce it to the public. On a whim that day, Li Zhi was afraid that his uncle would feel lonely, so he went to celebrate his birthday in person, wanting to give his uncle a big surprise.

However, the scene outside the gate of the mansion surprised Li Zhi, and the uninvited birthday wishers actually lined up in front of the door, carrying all kinds of gifts in their hands. The eldest grandson Wuji himself did not see the guests, but his sons were entertained with a smile at the door, and all the gifts were accepted.

And learned that the emperor is coming, more people came to celebrate his birthday, because the eldest grandson Wuji did not set up a banquet, many traders carried the burden at the door to sell, the business was booming, it is said that a day's business will catch up with a year's income.

Li Zhi has been shocked since then, when his father was alive in the past, his uncle was very low-key, but now he has a big show, high eyelids, and even more courage, guarding the emperor has to deal with the second grade Zhaoyi, that is Wu Mei, the head of the nine concubines, how can people not be vigilant?
