Speaking from the heart, Li Dan is really a good person, at least Li Tong doesn't have a bad impression of this fourth uncle.

Although he didn't have much contact with this fourth uncle, and Li Dan was just a rich and hard-working otaku image most of the time, but with only a limited number of contacts, Li Tong felt that this uncle was not a scheming person.

Of course, it is not possible to be honest with people, after all, in such an environment, if you don't know how to hide your emotions, it is not straightforward, but naïve. Li Tong just felt that his uncle didn't have too strong utilitarianism when he came into contact with people, or he was very shrewd in calculating the pros and cons.

Of course, this may also be due to the fact that there was no major conflict of interest between them before that. In short, born in such a family environment, Li Dan is quite a bit out of the mud and not stained, unlike the sons of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian. It may not be silly and sweet, it can only be said that there is a bottom line.

If he could, Li Tong would be quite willing to be friends with his fourth uncle. After all, compared to the other people he came into contact with on a daily basis, such as his grandmother, his aunt, and the Manchu ministers, it was easier to get along with his fourth uncle.

But Li Tong also understands that this may be very small. At present, his fourth uncle has been appointed to supervise the country, but the ministers are definitely not satisfied with this, if the name is not right, it will not be good, and then they will definitely seize every opportunity to take another step upward.

The emperor is the supreme of the mandate of heaven, aside from some political philosophies of divine authority of the monarch, even in the real situation, the emperor's feelings as a person are secondary, and more reflect the political demands and interests of a certain stage of a regime, as for his own personality, it must be suppressed.

Therefore, what will determine the relationship between Li Tong and his fourth uncle in the future does not depend on their respective attitudes, but on the development of the situation. As a prisoner, Li Dan is further advanced than Li Tong in terms of legal rites, but he naturally has to face and bear some fixed problems, as for Li Tong, his subjective initiative is higher, and he has no room for advance and retreat.

As soon as the imperial heir walked away, Li Tong did not immediately return to the north gate, but stood on the inside of the Zetian Gate, raised his hand and beckoned, signaling Xue Ne, who was staying here, to come in and speak.

"There was a shocking change the night before, and if it wasn't for the generals and other loyal and brave people, it was difficult for the thieves of all countries to be easily punished, and it was hard work."

When Xue Ne came in, Li Tong nodded to him with no lack of approval.

Xue Ne shook his head after hearing this, and at the same time crossed his hands and said: "I am ashamed of my humble position, I really dare not be praised by His Highness like this." Although he has the heart of courage, it is a pity that he has not been caught, and he has killed the feat of a thief, but there is no blood on his body, he just runs back and forth, in vain......"

Speaking of this, there was a lot of loss in Xue Ne's tone.

He was originally recommended by Li Zhaode to join the ministry, and he himself served in the important right guard of the Southern Ya, and he was in charge of the defense of Zetianmen last night, which can be said to be one of the most important chess pieces in the Southern Province.

And since he has decided to join, of course, he is also loyal and brave, hoping to make a great contribution with his own contributions, so in the first few conspiracy meetings, Xue Ne also performed positively, and provided a lot of practical ideas in terms of details.

However, due to Doulu Qinwang's involvement, Xue Ne's position became a little less important than before, especially at the time of the incident, but also because of the outbreak of the conflict between Li Zhaode and Doulu Qinwang, and under the negative anger, Li Zhaode led Xue Ne away in advance.

Of course, even if Xue Ne didn't leave at that time, according to Doulu Qinwang's performance next, there would definitely be no chance to perform, and Doulu Qinwang would definitely replace Xue Ne with his cronies to guard the key gate of Zetianmen.

In the course of the next incident, Xue Ne only followed Li Zhaode to and from Zetianmen to and from Dayemen, as he said, running back and forth in vain.

Even if there was a reversal of the killing of Doulu Qinwang next, it was presided over by Princess Taiping at that time, and Xue Ne and his subordinates only played the role of goalkeepers.

Before Li Zhaode was reinstated in the Western Pavilion, due to his embarrassing identity, he had basically been marginalized by Di Renjie and the courtiers. Li Daoguang, the general of the right prison guard, was also arranged to patrol the gates of the imperial city because of his background in Guanlong.

As for Xue Ne, who should have been the core figure of the palace change, he was completely ignored. When the imperial heir went to the West Pavilion to meet the Holy Emperor and reach an understanding, even the soldiers under his command were requisitioned.

Although Li Zhaode's situation was reversed due to the Holy Emperor's system of reinstating Li Zhaode, the time was too short after all. Moreover, Li Zhaode will be busy with important matters such as the emperor's heir's stay in Shangyang Palace, so he only has time to arrange Li Daoguang to be in charge of the guards of Shangyang Palace, and he has not paid attention to Xue Ne for the time being.

Therefore, at present, Xue Ne can only stay in Zetianmen for the time being according to the original Su Guard plan.

In the past, this position was naturally important, but now that the Holy Emperor is in the Inner Palace, all the affairs of the Ying Security are in charge of the Beiya. The imperial heir will live in Shangyang Palace and supervise the country, and then the ministers will definitely go to Shangyang Palace to discuss state affairs.

Therefore, in the next transition period, Tianmen will be reduced to a dispensable embarrassing existence, which also means that Xue Ne's situation will be like this.

Even if it won't last too long, after all, Li Zhaode is the first person in Southern Province at the moment, and when he returns to the capital, he recommends that there will be a Xue Ne of the two of them, which shows that Xue Ne has a great friendship with him, and once he has a clue about the affairs at hand, he will definitely adjust Xue Ne.

However, this kind of promotion only means that Li Zhaode personally appreciates Xue Ne, and as for Xue Ne's own counselor's work, it is difficult to reflect. Therefore, Xue Ne's current loss is really impossible to hide.

"This night, the clouds have dispersed, and the righteous path has returned, how can it be in vain for all the people who do things."

Li Tong has a good impression of Xue Ne, not just because he was born as a general. The previous few prior meetings were attended by Li Zhan on his behalf, and when he came back to tell the story in detail, Xue Ne's positive attitude was naturally in his words.

There is no doubt that this is a person who has a great heart of righteousness and is eager to make progress, hoping to revive his family, and he is also the talent that Li Tong urgently needs right now.

In this incident, Li Tong obtained the military power of the entire Dugi Province. But if he wants to use this power calmly and play its due role, of course, he also needs a group of generals to follow him.

Counselor Xue Ne worked in vain, and now is full of loss, and it is also a good time to win over his people. Although Xue Ne was recommended by Li Zhaode, this does not mean that he can only follow Li Zhaode to the dark. It was even because of this relationship that Li Tong decided to dig the foot of the wall immediately.

Although the ministers bowed to the emperor's heir in front of the gate of heaven just now, it did not mean that they were completely supporting Li Dan personally. Their emotions were exposed this time, and they were more expecting that the power would be returned to Li Tang and that they could end all kinds of terrorist political persecution in the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

As for Li Dan's personal prestige to be re-established, there is still a long way to go. After all, he came to power as a puppet, and he never handled any state affairs independently for a day. And if strictly speaking, Li Dan himself is still a dead king, and the Tang family was stolen during his reign.

It is true that Li Dan has a righteous name, but Li Tong also has it, but he is not as firm and clear as Li Dan.

But in addition to Li Zhaode and Di Renjie, ministers of this level already have a concept of limiting the authority of the acting king, and in the minds of many people, he, as the bloodline of the Li family and the grandson of the emperor, is also a great contributor to the restoration of Sheji!

At least before the contradictions between Li Tong and his fourth uncle accumulated and reached a-for-tat confrontation, and the dispute between position and route was extremely obvious, for many times, there was actually no question of route selection.

Sure enough, when Xue Ne heard the words of comfort from the acting king, his face improved slightly, and he hugged his fists again and said: "Thank you for your highness's words of encouragement, I only regret that I have not been able to do my best at the moment." But His Royal Highness really has the merit of setting the peak this night, and the soldiers of the North Gate are united and raise righteousness in unison, which is really admirable! ”

Li Tong smiled again after hearing this, but soon sighed again: "There is no absoluteness in the facts, there is also no lack of noise in the north gate, such as the right feather Lin Yan Zhiwei, who is a new saint, but he can't repay it with all his heart, and he still has a secret collusion with the national thief Youning, so he has to bear the pain." I am now the new leader of the right feather forest, but I lost my arm first, and the camp cannot be calmly mastered, which is really annoying and regrettable. ”

When Xue Ne heard this, he couldn't help but show a different color between his eyebrows and eyes, and after hanging his head for a moment, he raised his head and said in a condensed voice: "It's a pity that the humble qualifications are shallow and the talent is short, otherwise you will definitely dedicate yourself to yourself and divide the labor camp!" ”

"The general is too modest, and at the moment it is just a new demonic atmosphere, but everything is still far from being settled. But as long as there is loyalty and sincerity, why is there no use? ”

Li Tong heard that Xue Ne was also enthusiastically responding to his hints, so he continued: "The Holy Emperor entrusted me with important matters, so I naturally have to be cautious, and I don't dare to pay the rest lightly because of heavy work. But if it's General Xue, there's nothing to hesitate about. I have known the general for a short time, and how can I easily forget the righteousness of trusting my life before I get started. Since the general has this ambition, he might as well go straight to the north gate with me! ”

"This, this...... Humble and lowly is real, His Royal Highness is so favored, he must do his best, and His Royal Highness is known as wise! ”

After Xue Ne heard this, he was surprised and delighted, although he felt the kindness of the acting king, but he didn't expect that this highness decided so quickly, and even took him to the north gate directly, so the excitement was overflowing for a while, and the regret and loss in his heart were swept away.

Seeing Xue Ne's statement, Li Tong also laughed. He didn't think that Xue Ne was a rudder, he was originally full of ambition, but he was completely excluded when the incident happened, how many opportunities can he get in his life? The huge sense of loss in this is not something that others can bear.

Moreover, even if Xue Ne and Li Zhaode have a good friendship and can be comrades, it does not mean that they will be unswerving to the death, if they want to lock their respective future routes with this friendship, it is really too domineering, and it can already be said that they are forming a party for personal gain.

Although the gate of heaven has become no longer important at the moment, the imperial city of the southern province has just experienced some turmoil, so there are still nearly a thousand soldiers of the southern government here, after all, the imperial city is still the office of the hundred officials.

Seeing that the acting king attached so much importance to Xue Ne, several generals who were in the straight line also showed envy. They naturally knew that the new official position of the acting king was the first person in the military between the Shendu and even the entire Heluo, and if they could devote themselves to the acting king's command at this time, the chances of being able to perform would naturally increase greatly.

"The matter of staying at the north gate is still heavy, and I don't have time to go to the southern province to tell the minister, and General Lao will report it later."

After hitting it off with Xue Ne, Li Tong instructed a nearby general of the forbidden army.

After hearing this, the general hurriedly nodded yes, the prime ministers of the southern province disagreed, it was a topic between them and the acting king, as for the general himself, of course, he wanted to give His Royal Highness the acting king such a face.

Not only that, but when the general came in front to listen to the teaching, he also clenched his fists and said respectfully: "Your Highness's great achievements, Kuang Fu Sheji, everyone who heard it was heartbroken." Although the humble position is only a mediocre ambition, I also hope to devote myself to the business......"

After Li Tong heard this, he nodded his head to the general, and at the same time asked with a smile: "I don't know the general's surname?" What is your job? ”

"The lowly name Tian Xuanyi, a person from Wuyuan Mansion in Yongtongfang, Hegong County, is an incumbent Zuo Ying Yangwei."

The general's expression was even more excited, and he hurriedly reported to his house before entering.

Li Tong nodded seriously after listening to this, indicating that he had written it down.

Although the Shendu Forbidden Army is divided into north and south, this is only a distinction at the administrative level, in fact, the two yamen are not-for-tat with each other, and they are incompatible.

The upper-level bigwigs may still have some disputes and contradictions in power, but for the middle- and low-level generals and soldiers, it is nothing more than serving as soldiers to eat food and make meritorious contributions.

Nanya is a soldier of Fanshang, who has to go back and forth every year, not only to farm but also to undertake the task of guarding, and in terms of welfare, it is far inferior to Beiya. Even some of the children of officials who were supposed to serve in the Qinxunyi Mansion often avoided military service by paying money.

At present, although the Holy Emperor has returned to the government and the imperial heir is in charge of the country, the status of the Beiya itself has not been greatly affected, and in this incident, it is even more prominent that the North Gate is united and the military spirit is available. Even if the future heir ascends the throne as the emperor, he will only pay more attention to the Northern Ya.

Therefore, if you can join the Northern Ya, it will also be a great temptation for the generals and commanders of the Southern Ya. After all, in the current situation, who can be sure that there will be a dispute between the acting king and the imperial heir, and they must respect the acting king?

What's more, the authority of the acting king is no longer limited to the forbidden army, and the entire Ochichong Mansion in Toki Province must be controlled by it, and the space for dispatch is naturally large.

Not to mention the scheming of the generals of the Southern Ya who witnessed this scene, Li Tong quickly led Xue Ne to the north gate and directly let him enter the camp to take over Yan Zhiwei's ministry. As for the appointment of a by-appointment, it will be done later.

If Li Zhaode got in the way, it would be better, Li Tong simply transferred Xue Ne out of the forbidden army system and arranged for him to be under the governor's office of the governor of Dugi Province.

However, Li Zhaode should not be so narrow-minded, although his personality has a strong side, but it is not without political wisdom. Previously, he dug a pit for Li Tong in Dayemen, but now the situation is different, and of course the approach to people and things must be adjusted.

His person was reinstated before the emperor's heir entered the Holy Emperor, and he was ordered to be in danger, and his position between the Holy Emperor and the Emperor's heir was inevitably a little ambiguous, and it was even possible to be regarded as a remnant of the Holy Emperor's minions planted in the political hall.

Therefore, at present, Li Zhaode needs an ally to ensure that his next series of decrees to control chaos can be implemented normally. As for this ally, of course, it can only be the acting king.

If he doesn't show favor to Li Tong and is preempted by others, if he is restrained by Li Tong in all aspects, this Zai Lian won't be able to do it for a month.

There has never been a shortage of people waiting for the throne in Southern Province, the Holy Emperor and the imperial heir paid for heavy use, but they ended up having a saber rattling with the acting king, which shows that the ability is flawed, hurry up and get out, change people!

Li Tong brought Xue Ne over at this time, and also used it as a bridge to communicate with Li Zhaode on some personnel issues later, if Li Zhaode didn't even realize this meaning, then he should quickly pack up his baggage and leave.

Although the nuisance suffered by Beiya in last night's incident was not great, because the place where he was stationed was Ouchi Miyagi, the shock felt by the people's hearts should not be underestimated, and these effects could not be seen on the surface, so of course the previous guard arrangements could not be used.

Lu Chongyu returned home after participating in the Xishang Pavilion meeting, so Li Tong is now the only boss of the Beiya, so after returning to the Beiya, the first thing to do is a new guard watch. Anyone who has hidden dangers, or who does not know the roots, is not usable.

Therefore, this new Su Zhi Table, Li Tong is only arranging people who are sure of loyalty. Huan Yanfan and others, who were originally scattered in Nanya, were all incorporated into the Yulin Wei and participated in the Miyagi Suwei in the next period.

His own access security is left to the Warriors. Taking advantage of the fact that order has not been restored in Southern Province recently, adhering to the principle of getting on the bus first and then making up the ticket, Li Tong also arranged a new identity for the brave soldiers, and all of them were incorporated into the thousand cavalry for whitewashing.

When it comes to loyalty, of course, these daring warriors are the most credible. Previously, they were hidden in the dark, and they were the most illegal armed forces, but they still did not abandon them, and followed Li Tong between the two capitals. For these old henchmen, Li Tong of course wants to give them a return and give them a recognition.

In the future, people in the current situation will definitely make a detailed reversal of this palace change, and the brave warriors who have shown courage in it will definitely be studied in depth, and there is no room for concealment.

Instead of making people itch to inquire and tempt, why don't you directly join your own lineage guard, and see if you dare to ask me directly?

But several of the key members, such as Yang Xianzong and the like, Li Tong cannot give them a public identity for the time being.

At least before arriving in Xijing, Yang Xianzong and the others still need to keep it a little secret, after all, when they are the leaders of the brave warriors, they will inevitably appear in front of the stewards of the Ancient Clothes Society when they are in Xijing. Next, everything about Li Tong will be magnified and discussed, which will expose his relevant arrangements in Xijing in advance.

As for the daredevils, there is one of the most legitimate covers, that is, the members of the Baoli Xing Society, who are closely related to the flying money business.

The Suyue Army athletes who were still in the market, Li Tong also ordered a recall and officially entered Yuanbi City to station, which can be regarded as temporarily classified into the Beiya sequence.

As for Wu Yizong, who will not die in the catastrophe, it will be handed over to Nanya to clean up, and it is always necessary to give the imperial heirs of the prison country and the ruling prime ministers a chance to brush up their sense of existence. If in such a situation, they still don't dare to raise their knives, then Li Tong is really going to take a bite of them.

Of course, it is unrealistic to kill everyone in the martial family, which will undoubtedly give people a feeling that they want to completely draw a line with Wu Zetian, even if Li Tong can't agree, it will be too big a blow to his grandmother's authority, which is not conducive to his own next development.

Who should be killed and who should not be killed, in fact, Li Tong has already made an example, Wu Chenghei and Wu Youning, who have directly interfered in national affairs and have considerable military power and influence, are naturally eliminated without discussion.

As for the other martial arts families, it depends on the fate, such as Wu Chonggui, who was killed by his second brother Li Shouli, which can be killed or not. In fact, Li Tong originally planned to leave Wu Chonggui, taking advantage of his appointment as the secretary of Zongzheng Temple, and then give the three brothers a beautiful seal.

But now that it's gone, there's not much to say. I can only blame Wu Chonggui for being tired of living, saying that he has nothing to do with Tianmen.

However, there is another person who is special and needs to be carefully considered, and that is Wu Youyi, who is currently serving as governor and governor.

Li Tong hasn't thought about how to deal with his people, the key is to see Wu Youyi's own attitude. If he is willing to favor himself, then keep it, and even try to keep his official position together, if he directly pounces on his fourth uncle's thigh, then I'm sorry, just make a head.

After the task of guarding the camp was arranged, the soldiers of the battalions were in place one after another, and the sky was already dark. In the next few days, the situation in the people's hearts was extremely tense, so Li Tong did not relax because of the success in front of him, but stayed directly in Xuanwumen to ensure that the unexpected situation could be extinguished in time.

Of course, he will not stand in the Xuanwu Gate Tower like Wu Youning, but stay in Xuanwu City and control the entire Inner Palace's guard system.

After the desk affairs were temporarily handled, Li Tong changed into a light leather armor before entering the inner hall.

At this time, there were a large number of people in the inner hall, and more than a dozen military doctors who were famous for treating sword wounds in the palace from the palace province, the imperial medical department, and the two yaya, all stayed here to treat Guo Da and other soldiers who were injured in the palace mutiny.

The sword has no eyes, and no matter how much you prepare for the week, it is still inevitable that you will be injured when the incident occurs. Last night's battle mainly took place in Wu Chenghe's Wei Palace, although most of the family accounts in the palace were like goods, but in such a chaotic environment at night, the brave soldiers who were responsible for attacking and killing here were also wounded in many places.

At this time, the wounded had been properly treated, Li Tong visited them one by one, because he was worried about disturbing their rest, he did not talk much, and after making sure that the injury had stabilized, he was relieved to quit.

The overall injuries of the brave soldiers were not too serious, but there were still a lot of wounded, after all, when they first started the incident, in order to ensure secrecy, most of them were clothed and clothed, but they wrapped some skins and other simple defenses in the vital parts of the clothes.

However, because of timely and careful treatment, most of them can become vigorous again in the next period of time. Even if some of them can no longer fight in armor in the future, their future livelihood is also worry-free, and Li Tong has to be responsible from life to death.

If the injury is serious, it is Guo Da. He raised his knife in the city tower and directly chopped Wu Youning off the city tower, which can be said to be the first merit of the Xuanwu Gate. But he also exposed himself and was besieged by Wu Youning's own soldiers. Fortunately, Lu Chongyu rescued him in time, but Guo Da was also stabbed several times.

Although Li Tong and Guo Da have not been together for a long time, when it comes to deep friendship, they are second only to their families. To a certain extent, Guo Da is the first ray of light he saw when he came to this world and was indifferent to the world.

Walking here, seeing that the medical officers were still busy treating them, Li Tong was worried about disturbing them, so he stopped outside the hall, and the medical officer asked a little.

Although he also understood that his request was a little unreasonable, he still said in a deep voice: "Guo Shilang is no different from me. If he is well, you will be meritorious. If he is not cured, he will be guilty of killing my heroes!" ”

After hearing this, the medical officers wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads and nodded their heads again and again to express their determination.

Li Tong couldn't help much if he stayed here, and he didn't dare to disturb the treatment steps of the medical officers with his half-baked medical emergency knowledge. I think that even Le Gong An Jinzang, who was the emperor's heir in history, can be rescued, although Guo Da is seriously injured, but there is no abdominal injury, and now it is the highest level of medical emergency in this world, and it should be able to be saved.

comforting himself so much in his heart, he retreated back to the straight hall and insisted on it until dawn.

At dawn, dozens of courtiers gathered outside the Xuanwu Gate, asking for information hoping to meet the acting king, including his palace chief Shi Li Jingyi and his old friend Li Qiao and others.
