Chapter 109
Li Xiang's words made Emperor Wen of Zhou raise his eyebrows, "The prime minister has brought people into the palace to confess his relatives with blood, how can you let me know how to investigate?" ”
"The minister is deceived by the demon's gossip, and I hope the emperor will see it." Li Xiang bit and didn't let go.
Zhou Rongjun was extremely amused, squatting □ looking at Li Xiang who was kneeling, "I went to your house to cut you down, and told the world that I was deceived by demons, what do you think of Master Li's reason for this?" Zhou Rongjun patted his face with the back of his hand and said contemptuously, "You even dare to break into the palace, why, don't you have the courage to clean up this king now?" ”
Li Xiang was indifferent, and kowtowed to Emperor Wen of Zhou, "Please also ask the emperor to be clear!" ”
Emperor Wen of Zhou was indeed aware of everything, and asked the people of Dali Mansion to take him away, and at the same time, ordered the Internal Affairs Office to supervise and convict him at the same time.
In the court, the king of the northwest was murderous, and none of the disciples of the Li family jumped out at this moment to cry out for his best friend.
In this matter, not only Zhou Rongjun made up his mind to kill, but also Emperor Zhou Wendi.
But after the dispersal of the dynasty that day, Li Xiang's eldest son, through the report of the two cabinet elders, entered the palace and had a secret conversation with Emperor Wen of Zhou.
In this secret conversation, Emperor Zhou Wendi hesitated for a while and called Zhou Rongjun to listen.
Li Xiang's eldest son, Li Si, handed over the Xuanwu treasure, as well as the remnants of the Si family, and handed over the correspondence between several courtiers who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country and Qu Nuguo investigated by the Li family, pointing out that the secret was evidence, and only wanted to save Li Xiang's life.
The three things given by the Li family all hit Emperor Zhou Wendi's heart.
Emperor Wen of Zhou was moved, because what the Li family wanted was to protect the Li family's life and the position of prime minister, and they didn't move that idea to keep.
The Li family is the head of the seven clans, and the other six clans and nine families, all of whom are half married, and moving the big tree of the Li family basically moves the court in half of the powerful families, what Emperor Wen of Zhou has always wanted to move, and it is also the position of Li Xiang's prime minister, and he doesn't want the Li family's power to penetrate into his court again.
Now it is not only possible to stop his momentum, but also to get relevant conditions, and Emperor Zhou Wen has no reason not to be moved.
But even if he is an arbitrary person, at this time, he will not make his own assertion at this juncture, so that the fourth son will hate him, who is the father and emperor.
So after Li Si finished speaking, he didn't blink his eyelids much, and waved his hand to let him out, "I'll talk to you again when I get back." ”
Li Si's ability to follow his father Li Xiang, is the next generation of family heads brought out by Li Xiang himself, and he is also a calm generation, and after hearing this, he didn't say much, and Shi Li retreated silently.
At this time, he was still calm, but he really had a little bit of Li Xiang's style that never liked to show mountain dew.
"What do you think?" After Li Si left, Emperor Zhou Wendi asked Zhou Rongjun.
Zhou Rongjun understood what Emperor Zhou Wen meant by asking.
The society of the country is always higher than personal feelings.
If he can't tell the importance of things at this time, then, let alone in the future, he is not even suitable for the king of the northwest.
The marshal who leads the troops to fight the war, the knife must naturally be clean and neat, and he is a good leader, but before the knife, what to kill, how to kill, and when to kill, all need to be the leader to think clearly, otherwise, no matter how many people are killed, it is just a brainless murderer, and he will not go too far.
Zhou Rongjun did not avoid this matter, this matter, he was not provoked by Li Xiang, it was the queen's words that angered him, after two days, although the anger did not fade at all, and it accumulated more and more, but some things he could still distinguish, "This is the Li family's delaying strategy, but I want to save Li Xiang from the army, and then seek other things, but this is indeed an opportunity, my father can take the opportunity to decompose the Li family, which is more convenient than directly killing the head of the Li family." ”
Emperor Zhou Wendi nodded with satisfaction.
Zhou Rongjun didn't feel the slightest joy about this, and continued to say coldly, "But Father, if you don't have that certainty to strangle Li Xiang to death, but let him have the momentum of making a comeback, it is better to kill him now, even if cutting the grass and eradicating the roots brings turmoil, it is better than him making waves again." ”
Emperor Wen Zhou listened to Zhou Rongjun's words, his face with a little relief was a little relieved, and he nodded at Zhou Rongjun, "What you are afraid of is that I didn't take you for a while." ”
Speaking of this, Emperor Zhou Wendi's tone changed, "The cabinet is also going to change two people, who do you think is better?" ”
Zhou Rongjun raised his eyes to look at him, silent for a long time.
This is his disadvantage, he started very reluctantly, he worked hard alone, and he was dedicated to running in the northwest, and then he was the Jiangnan official group, and it was because of the big clan that there was no support behind him that he made up his mind to hit the locality. Therefore, in the cabinet, there are only two people who are familiar with him, and among the group of people in the Hanlin Academy, few people have come to climb with him now.
The matter of the prince last time had already made these people tremble, and they did not dare to stand in line in advance, waiting for the situation to be clear, and then looking for someone to stand aside.
However, Li Xiang is going to go this time, and without Li Xiang, a person who stands between the emperor and the courtiers, there should be more people leaning towards him than before.
Thinking about it, Zhou Rongjun's face looked better, and before Emperor Zhou Wen spoke, he said, "There is no one in the child." ”
He didn't have a decent person to be in the cabinet at this time, so he didn't let anyone in.
Lifting someone in who is not under his control is only helping other people's momentum and increasing other people's prestige, which is not beneficial to him.
"You also know that it's good that you don't have anyone." Emperor Wen of Zhou looked at his fourth son meaningfully.
He has the ability, the northwest is only a few years, he is in the airtight, the division of power in the northwest military camp has a foothold of his own strength, although he has made some efforts in it, try his best to protect his people, but if he does not dare to fight, the northwest will not know the majesty of his lion king, Jiangnan too, go down, and also accept a few important people to his door, which can be regarded as his people.
But these are all local forces.
And the imperial court is settled in Bian Jing, Bian Jing's seven clans and nine families, he married the daughter of the Liu family who has fallen into decline in the nine families, and the fallen Wanjia is not his help, the Jia family has one or two people who can be used, but it is too tender, so tender that it will be broken as soon as it is broken, and he does rely on the momentum of the fierce name, not like a good lord, before some people take refuge in him, everyone has to think about it, and they want to wait and see.
There are two sides to everything, there are pros and cons, and now, the aspect that is beneficial to him has passed, and the side that is disadvantageous to him has come to show its original form in front of him.
The capital is the most important place, it is what he must be familiar with and master, he will go to the northwest after the year, and he is far away from the capital, and Emperor Wen of Zhou does not know how to establish his power in the capital as a son who does not want to marry with the big clan.
It's someone who has a place for him to *insert* himself, and he doesn't even have a decent person.
Zhou Rongjun understood the meaning of Emperor Zhou Wen's words very well, if he picked a few women to come over as concubines in addition to the six clans and the nine families of the Li family, these people would also give them away, and if these women gave birth to a son and a half daughter for him, these families would be on his side.
One day he ascends to the throne, and these people will be relatives of the emperor......
Just like his father, the emperor and his mother, by constantly taking concubines, used the power of the seven clans and nine families in Beijing to balance the power of the seven clans and nine families.
This road is indeed the clearest and most convenient road.
But Zhou Rongjun didn't want to be like his father, Emperor Zhou Wendi, he wouldn't follow his old path, no matter how convenient it was.
He half-lowered his head and did not reply to Emperor Wen's words.
Seeing that he was stubborn, Emperor Wen shook his head and said, "There is still a month before you go to the northwest, and there are still some things in time." ”
Zhou Rongjun couldn't do what he wanted, so he got up and said to Emperor Zhou Wen, "The affairs of the Li family, do what you want, and the child has no objection." ”
Although he has been too lazy to look at her these days, she is his princess, and he said that he would be a good woman to her for the rest of his life, and what he said to her counts, and he will not stab her in the heart.
He wouldn't let his wife, the most reluctant, live like his mother.
**
The matter of the emperor's father and son, Liu Zhenji naturally couldn't think of it, she has been a little uneasy in the past two days, she rushed forward with a cheeky face to curry favor and sell it didn't work, no matter how good the tricks worked in the past, Zhou Rongjun could just turn a blind eye, and if she said a few more words, he turned around and didn't want to stay in the same place with her.
Yoo Jung-gil was afraid of him.
How long can he stay with her in a day? If she gets angry with him again, she can't see anyone for three days or five days, what's going on?
So now it's good for people to be willing to come back, she doesn't dare to pretend to be stupid anymore, deceive and fool him, and treat him well, he no longer appreciates it, she is a little poor in donkey skills, every day at lunch and dinner to see him come back, but also stop those actions, silently follow him, don't dare to say a word, if he annoys her tightly, glaring at her, she has to take a few steps back, don't be too close to him, so as not to annoy him, don't go back without looking back.
For so many days, Xiao Shizi saw that something was wrong.
After lunch in the past few days, he opened his hand to Zhou Rongjun, and after his father hugged him, he patted Zhou Rongjun's face and said in a deep voice, "Father, be obedient." ”
Don't make your mother angry.
Zhou Rongjun glanced at him, didn't speak, and walked in front of him with him.
In the past few days, in addition to talking to Emperor Zhou Wendi about business, even Queen Wan, he didn't care, when he saw Queen Wan about to ask for peace, he didn't raise his eyelids, and he said that he would not talk to her anymore if he saw his mother, and he didn't look at Queen Wan with his eyes.
In the past, he would order food with Liu Zhenji, and bring a little to Queen Wan by the way, but now, neither of them can stand him.
No matter how stupid Queen Wan is, she has come back to her senses in the past few days, and finally knows what the little daughter-in-law is worried about.
She herself was a little flustered.
Especially in the past two days, after Zhou Rongjun would take Chen'an to his side to sleep, Queen Wan's heart was all carried.
Once again, she understood that she couldn't be compared to her little son.
Queen Wan saw that Zhou Rongjun was walking at the forefront with Xiao Shizi in her arms, and she didn't wait for them to take a step, she licked her somewhat dry mouth, turned around, and hugged the little county lord who was quietly looking left and right in her arms with Pianhong in her arms, blinking her clear eyes, and her heart calmed down a little.
"What are you afraid of him doing?" Emperor Wen couldn't see it, he knew the things of the past few days, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "I will wait until I sleep with you and Chen'an before leaving." ”
When the time comes, see if the son of a son dares to come over and rob someone.
Liu Zhenji was next to Queen Wan, and she also understood Emperor Wen's words, but her whole person was a little absent-minded, and her eyes kept following the back of the person far in front.
Emperor Wen Zhou couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Liu Zhenji's soulless appearance.
How can such a woman, who has no idea in her heart and retreats at the slightest thing, manage a man like his son?
"Zhen Ji'er," Queen Wan also saw that she didn't even dare to follow now, she exhaled lightly and called her daughter-in-law, "You go forward and follow Jun'er." ”
"Oh." Liu Zhenji smiled dryly at Queen Wan, hurriedly stepped up his steps, and walked forward.
As soon as she arrived, the lion king in front of her seemed to know that she had come up again, and the pace was fast again, and soon disappeared in the eyes of Queen Wan, and the speed was so fast that it was like a walk, and it was not too much to rush to lift the tire, and it was obvious that he was punishing someone.
Queen Wan looked at the anxious daughter-in-law and sped up her steps to rush forward, so fast that she trotted all the way, her eyes couldn't help but darken, and then she couldn't help but lower her head and put her face against her little face with her little granddaughter in her arms, and sighed in her heart.
Her little son was so difficult to please that the little daughter-in-law almost cut out her heart to show him, but he was still indifferent and didn't let go of his breath.
"I don't even know how to wear a loss, and I don't know what kind of likability she is." Emperor Zhou Wendi narrowed his eyes and said lightly.
A while ago, he felt that the daughter of the Liu family still had merit, but in the past two days, he looked down on her a little bit.
What kind of good wife can a woman who doesn't think about her husband be?
Emperor Wen of Zhou completely forgot that Liu Jizhen was completely suffering from unwarranted disasters, and only remembered the disadvantage that the daughter of the Liu family was the lion princess.
Empress Wan glanced at Emperor Zhou Wendi, and when she saw the disapproval on his face, she also said coldly, "You say that she is not likable, so she is not likable?" It's your business that you don't like her, and she doesn't need to please others, it's enough for her to please Jun'er like her. ”
Emperor Wen Zhou was stunned, turned his head to look at Queen Wan, and saw that her face was like ice, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
He knew what Lu Dao had just said, and he said it wrong, and he hated her again.
At this time, Liu Zhenji ran out of breath before catching up with the person who was already sitting in the pavilion.
"Brother Lion." Yoo Jung-gil called him.
Zhou Rongjun didn't raise his eyes, and pointed to his son who was picking flowers not far away, "Farther away, pick a handful, don't be a harsh person with one or two flowers." ”
Xiao Shizi waved at Liu Zhenji, grinned and shouted, "Mother, Yu'er picks flowers." ”
Pick flowers and give them to the mother.
Liu Zhenji laughed and walked to the pavilion facing him, "Zhilu said, you should be careful to take the road, but don't fall." ”
"Hey." Zhou Yuyu answered, turned around, and walked crookedly to pick the few small flowers in winter.
Liu Zhenji saw that there were guards following him not far away, so he was also relieved, turned around and walked towards Zhou Rongjun, sat down next to him, and whispered to him, "Brother Lion King, will you lend me your handkerchief?" ”
Zhou Rongjun ignored her, stretched out his palm and rubbed his fingers to play with the ashes.
"My handkerchief is dirty, my face is sweaty, it's so uncomfortable......" Liu Zhenji took out his handkerchief and put it in front of him to see, "I fell just now, I wiped my hands with this handkerchief, they were all dirty, it's not good to wipe my face, yours give me a messenger." ”
Zhou Rongjun frowned at this time, paused, looked at her hand, and saw that the hand she handed the handkerchief was really falling, and the palm of her hand was also scratched and bleeding, he couldn't help but be annoyed, and he scolded angrily, "So stupid that you can't even walk?" ”
"It's too rushed." Liu Zhenji was an accidental fall hard, she didn't care if it hurt, she couldn't bear this pain, you must know that no pain could compare to the pain in her heart, he didn't sleep with her at night except for dinner these days.
She is actually quite sad about this, being misunderstood and disliked by others, it is not as good as him really not being by her side.
Zhou Rongjun stopped talking, he stretched out his hand and pulled her hands over, and then one got up and picked her up and put her on the stool, he bent down and picked her up, his face was still unhappy, and his tone was still extremely bad, "You are stupid, save Lao Tzu from worrying about it, looking at you dazzling." ”
As soon as Liu Zhenji was picked up by him, the whole person breathed a sigh of relief, listening to what he said unceremoniously, she didn't care, she only whispered in his ear, "It hurts, and I don't know if the road will be scarred." ”
"Are you stupid, such a little scar?" Zhou Rongjun's tone was the same as eating explosives, "I think you have been with that woman for a long time, and you have learned all her stupidity, it is better to go back to the palace as soon as possible, and stay again, if you learn from her, you see if I can beat you!" ”
