Three years after the Tiandu Incident.

The Westside became "quiet".

In the past, the western realm was also very "quiet", but unlike now, when the three princes were in power, it was difficult to fight against the eastern border, and the second prince who sat on Liuli Mountain was in high spirits, holding monstrous authority and covering the sky with one hand.

In the past, the western frontier was full of wind and noise, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

Now...... It is that everything is settled, dust to dust, and earth to earth.

Today's "quiet" is stability and peace.

Every common people and civilians in the west are happy to see this scene, there are disciples of the holy mountain to travel, wandering down the mountain, the three division officials of the big and small cities settled in the Tiandu, the second prince and the third prince used to fight underground, and the wrestling "bandits" have been eliminated, and in the past three years, the merchants in the west have become more and more merchandising.

It's a sight everybody wants to see.

The big man stood at the top and watched it all happen, to the end.

From the results to see the essence, they know that the peace in the west is no different from the war, and the reason for the current situation is ...... In fact, it is a high concentration of power.

The crown prince re-established the "Lotus Pavilion" in Tiandu, and regained some of the laws that His Majesty Taizong abolished that year, this world cannot be without a master for a day, and the emperor never appeared again after leaving Changling.

There must always be a "successor".

The crown prince did not ascend to the Changling Tomb for a day and sat on the throne of the real dragon, so he had no "name" for a day.

But he has "real power".

The eldest son, the prince, as it should be, took care of the world for "Taizong", thousands of miles of mountains and rivers prostrate in front of him, and he had to admit the fact that ...... "imperial power" had been spread out in the sky.

Those high-ranking officials in the Tiandu, the powerful people of the Great Sui, and the celebrities of the imperial capital, experienced the turbulent ...... three years ago I don't want to see the second "coup d'état" again, especially those old people who have seen the "bloody night" that has been pushed forward for ten years, they are diligent, trembling and walking on the thin ice of officialdom, they are no longer alone, they are connected to their wives, children, huge family lines, and complex interests behind them.

They can't afford such dismantling and impact.

And the crown prince is a "mild" person.

After the emperor's "disappearance", the crown prince did not force these old people to express their position immediately, nor did he show his ambition to ascend the throne eagerly, the first thing he did was to be a prince, dignified and upright, and hold the power of Tiandu in his hands.

Then it was to restart the three divisions, suppress and hide the truth of the original coup, and use the "Gongsun Yue" who defeated the sword shop Hou Ningyi, as a pawn to check and balance the three divisions, and vaguely open up a fourth division to guard the "Law Enforcement Division", "Intelligence Division", and "Ping Demon Division".

Both sweet dates and mallets.

In the past three years, Gongsun Yue, in the name of the head of the Law Enforcement Department, has wandered under the ground of Tiandu, in the dark, everyone knows that this is a poisonous snake, which bit "Ning Yi" to death back then, and is the lead of the source of the coup d'état in Tiandu, and is targeted by such a poisonous snake...... Even if it can be stable for a while, it is impossible to be stable for a lifetime.

The prince vaguely has the meaning of establishing a "Supervision Division", as a relative organization around him, he does not override the three divisions, but wanders under the heavens and the earth, outside the three divisions, so that he can always supervise the three divisions...... In case the old things that happened to his father back then happened to him again.

It was a good idea for him.

For those old people...... This is a very bad omen.

No one has ever been able to arrange "power" to the point where everyone is satisfied, there is no perfect system...... Because everybody will crave more.

The IOD is indeed able to oversee the three divisions.

But what happens when the source of the Inspectorate is also broken?

It is said that by the side of the crown prince, there is already a preliminary list of the "Supervision Division", which

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Some members can be from the Law Enforcement Division, from the Intelligence Division, or from the Peaceful Demon Division in the North...... But they have one thing in common.

They all walked out of the "Spring Breeze Tea House".

No one knows about this list.

Now the members of the three divisions can no longer figure out whether their friends are friends or not.

At that time, Taizong was in retreat in the dormitory, and the court of the Great Sui was full of black smoke and miasma, where was anyone's ass still clean? As long as the prince wanted to settle old accounts, he could easily take down any official, whether it was an envoy or a chief priest.

This is what the prince is afraid of now.

He...... There is no statement.

If it is said that "the past is not to blame", the news that there is such a list as the "Supervision Division" and the possible establishment of the Fourth Division has spread rapidly in the streets and alleys of Tiandu along with the rumors, and even the grass people who drink porridge at the morning tea stalls have heard of it in these days.

The crown prince was a "moderate" killer.

The things of the past are now only temporarily put aside by him.

Maybe one day, it will be brought up again.

And this "ethereal" list of the fourth division is a warning and threat to the past three divisions.

No one will think that the crown prince Li Baijiao, as portrayed in the intelligence back then, is a waste of goods who is addicted to the wine of the Qinglou all year round and can't support the wall...... This young man who has been hiding in front for many years is three points more intelligent than the second prince Li Baijing, and three points more tenacious than the third prince Li Bailin.

He was born the earliest, but he also saw the Great Sui most clearly.

Over the years, almost all of the "people with lofty ideals" who have stepped into the Spring Breeze Tea House and seen the true appearance and demeanor of the prince have been impressed by the prince's courage.

This power slowly precipitated, and along with his forbearance, it sank to the three divisions of the Great Sui.

While the prince was gathering strength, these people grew in silence.

Until today.

The Spring Breeze Tea House has blossomed and borne fruit.

......

......

When the crown prince did not sit in the current position, everything was different from now.

In the impression of everyone in Tiandu, this eldest son born in the emperor's family, cowardly and timid, ignorant and incompetent, obviously had the advantage of being the first to choose, but in the end, he only held two things in his hands.

A tea house, a restaurant.

The prince didn't want anything else, he just wanted these two things.

The restaurant was bought for "Red Dew".

The Spring Breeze Tea House is for yourself.

In the eyes of outsiders, the dissolute and decadent prince of the Great Sui has nothing to do, either looking for fun in the restaurant, or going to the Songshan hunting ground to hunt, the teahouse is just a useless item that "covers people's eyes", the prince has almost never been there, and he is drunk every time, and he also staged a smashing table in the teahouse to scold people, denouncing the livelihood and law of the Great Sui, and once became a laughing stock at that time.

It's just that this teahouse was used by the prince to "prove" that he was not a waste, and in the end it was self-defeating, so that everyone could see this coffin clearly.

And now.

The prince has not appeared in the restaurant for three years.

There is no longer a day when I go to drink and have fun, watch singing, and listen to dance music.

There is no need for a day like this again.

No more pretending to be a wreck.

There is no need to speak timidly.

There is no need to pretend to be ignorant.

You don't need to let others look down on you.

He left the restaurant and lived in the Tiandu Palace, but he didn't dare to live in the dormitory.

As long as the truth of "Changling" has not been revealed for a day, as long as the speculation in his heart has not been confirmed for a day, then he will not be able to live in it.

......

......

"Where did Xu Qingyan go?"

This asks

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

question, let the atmosphere in the courtyard solidify.

The wind chimes under the eaves swayed gently.

In the backyard of the Spring Breeze Teahouse, the young man serving beside the prince has a simple and thick face, thick ink-like eyebrows, and looks like a loyal and kind "honest man".

continued to pour tea, and when the tea was about to overflow, he came back to his senses and put the pot away in time.

There was a breeze in the courtyard.

Go round and round.

The heat on the teacup spreads.

The prince's face was not real in the mist, and most of the time, he would stay in the palace to review the "folds", and he would remind himself of each bamboo slip and jade silk...... This is doing things for his father, and every time this thought occurs, the anxiety and boredom in his heart will accumulate a little more.

Recently, I came to the tea house, and I came very diligently.

Because many matters in the heavenly capital are on the right track, there are not so many twists and turns.

And some time ago, a lot of manpower and material resources were mobilized to search for the "news", but it has never been found.

He eagerly awaited a result.

The "honest man" who poured tea for the prince, his name is Zhou Hao, is the backbone who followed the Chunfeng Tea House at the earliest, and the "boss" behind the tea house is Yu Huan, the head of the Law Enforcement Division, Zhou Hao has been following Yu Huan to do things, and "Lord Yu" has been recuperating from his injuries since he was injured by the messenger surnamed Pang last time, and most of the matters were taken over by this honest man.

The prince listened quietly to Zhou Hao's voice.

Zhou Hao is a roundworm in his stomach, always what news he wants, and most importantly...... In the backyard of the Spring Breeze Teahouse, you will only hear good news from Zhou Hao.

The bad news will be dealt with silently.

The prince knows Zhou Hao's personality, after he listens to those "good news", he doesn't think everything is good, Zhou Hao's every treatment, he sees it in his eyes, it is really this honest man who can do things, big and small troubles, no matter how big or small, he does it himself, and he does it very beautifully, those bad news, in Zhou Hao's hands, big things are small, and small things are turned into small things.

Today.

He took the initiative to mention "Xu Qingyan" and asked about his whereabouts.

So what happened in the East Chamber, the prince naturally knew everything.

Zhou Hao sighed and said seriously: "Xu Qingyan...... Went to the Purple Mountain, the Wind and Snow Plain. ”

"Because of Ning Yi?"

The prince picked up the teacup and blew lightly, but the hot mist was shrouded, and he still couldn't see his face clearly.

Zhou Hao nodded, and neither did he shake his head.

He didn't know what the prince thought of Ning Yi...... After all, the officials and idlers in the palace all know that in the past three years since "Ning Yi" died, that Miss Xu is still persistent in delivering letters for Shushan.

And after the Tiandu incident, he was most concerned about Xu Qingyan.

It's the crown prince.

Zhou Hao gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "If the information is correct, Pei Lingsu will be in retreat in the Wind and Snow Plain, and Miss Xu may have gone to find the heir of Pei Mansion." ”

Pei Fu's heir is another highly sensitive word.

It's like Zhou Hao couldn't figure out the prince's attitude towards Ning Yi.

At the beginning, the whole world changed greatly, all because of Pei Lingsu, but the prince rarely mentioned it, and even took the initiative to omit the Purple Mountain when he mentioned it to the western border.

Zhou Hao didn't know what the prince thought of "Pei Lingsu", and regarded it as a tumor, or ...... Can you tolerate it, accept it?

Zhou Hao took a light breath and said in a low voice: "Now in Dasui, many people are working hard to find Ning Yi. Miss Xu should have gone to Purple Mountain for this matter. ”

When the prince heard the news, he just let out a soft sigh.

And not too much of a surprise.

He put down the teacup, looked at Zhou Hao, and asked slowly.

"So, what about Ning Yi?"
