Chapter 444: The Queen's Choice

This question confused the young prince Li Ke all of a sudden, and he stood and weighed it for a long time, but he still couldn't make a decision.

"Auntie, don't you have a choice between both? For example, a powerful and loyal courtier? He asked timidly.

"In this world, there is no perfect thing." The queen sighed: "The capable rebellious has his own ideas for everything. Those who are obedient but do not have the ability to achieve things, and a good scripture can be read crookedly for you. ”

"If the son really encounters such a thing in the future, how should he do it?" Li Ke asked.

The queen was silent for a long time, "Everyone has their own way of doing things, and the environment everyone faces is not the same, so Ke'er, there are no certain rules for dealing with national affairs, and there is no experience that can be completely copied. Therefore, you should not only read more, but also read more people and more calendars. ”

"My son understood." Li Ke nodded as if he didn't understand. "A-Niang, you don't seem to be the same today as in the past, is something going on?"

"Nope." The queen smiled reluctantly: "It's just that I saw that your father's body and bones are not as good as day by day, and I suddenly sighed, if one day, your father and your mother are suddenly gone, and you have to bear the burden of Datang alone, and I am a little worried in my heart." ”

"Auntie, don't scare me!" Li Ke stretched out his hand to hold the queen's clothes, his eyes widened, and he said with some trepidation.

"It's just a little emotional." Gently stroking the back of Li Ke's head, the queen smiled: "Didn't I tell you before?" You are eight years old, and General Li has already begun to plan big things when he is eight years old. My son is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, so don't lose to him. ”

"My son won't lose to him. The son will definitely prosper the Tang Dynasty. Li Ke clenched his small fist and waved it vigorously. A-Niang, when you tell me this today, are you talking about General Li? ”

The queen smiled: "Then what kind of person do you think General Li is?" ”

"My son doesn't know. Please also ask A-Niang to show me. Li Ke shook his head and said.

"General Li is a thousand-mile horse and a fiery horse. Whether he can control him or not depends on my son's ability. The queen smiled.

"The son still has his father and mother, General Li is such a fierce horse, naturally there will be a father and mother who will tame him into a good horse that is obedient and can run fast." Li Ke said confidently.

"My son, even if your father could tame him into a good horse, it would be relative to your father, and if the rider were yours, it would not be necessarily, so never think of making things happen because of people." The queen shook her head.

"Then Ah Niang, if one day I have to face General Li alone, how should I treat him?" Li Ke asked.

The queen looked at the roof beams and thought for a long time before she said slowly: "Ke'er, you remember, for General Li, you have to rely on it, but you must not rely on it. ”

Seeing that Li Ke seemed to understand or not, the queen sighed and stood up, for such a big child, what he said today was too complicated and profound for him. Not everyone is like Li Ze's demon.

"Remember A-Niang's words, if you encounter something in the future, think about what A-Niang said today. As a superior person, you should never expose your preferences and show your emotions in front of your courtiers. If the minister is not secret, he will lose his body, and if the king is not secret, he will lose the world. ”

"My son wrote it down." Li Ke nodded again and again.

The drum of the third watch sounded outside, the queen's body shook slightly, stood up, and said: "The night is already very deep, Ke'er rest, reading and practicing calligraphy is not a day's work, first of all, you must take care of your body, otherwise, like your father now, even if he has great ambitions and a face full of passion and pride, he can only lie in bed with the decoction as a companion!" ”

"Ke'er will go to bed right away." Li Ke said obediently. "A-Niang, let's go and rest quickly."

The queen smiled slightly, stood up and walked out of the room.

The lights in Li Ke's room went out, and the queen standing in the corridor suddenly burst into tears.

When she returned to her bedroom, the queen did not rest, but sat at her desk, picked up her pen, and began to write letters.

In the fourth watch, she had already written two letters. Carefully sealed, this summoned Gong E outside the room.

"On the fifth watch, you will send these two letters to Xue Shilang." The queen commanded.

"Yes, sissy." Gong E took the letter, looked at the queen and said, "Niangniang, the sky is about to dawn, the slave maid will serve you to sleep first." ”

The queen waved her hand, "Go ahead, I don't need you to serve here." ”

The palace maid only retreated.

In the room, however, the queen uncharacteristically retrieved from the accompanying box a complete set of the queen's formal clothes, which, in general, are worn only for the grandest ceremonies. This is the dignity of the queen and the majesty of the queen. Even if it is this escape, these things must be brought with you.

There was no one to serve, and with some difficulty, she put on this complicated formal dress one by one, put on the same headdress, and then carefully groomed herself in front of the bronze mirror.

She hadn't done these things herself in years.

The last time I did these things in person was when I was a lady at home. At that time, the family was in the middle of the road, but even the girl was not sold. No one would have thought that she would become the dignified princess of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and then become the queen of the world.

Over the years, the emperor has been favored, his son is well-behaved, but he has enjoyed all the blessings he deserves, and now it is time for him to repay his husband.

With a smile on her face, she calmly walked to the side of the bed and lay down quietly.

Xue Ping didn't sleep all night.

The current situation worries him.

Li Ze's movements are unknown, and his intentions are unknown. And Han Qi seems to have reached a tacit understanding with the high radar of the river in the middle of the river, an anti-Li Ze camp has been formed, for the imperial court, it is not a good thing for Li Ze's family to be alone, it is necessary for someone to contain nature, but now is not the right time.

Li Ze can choose to leave it alone, and when the time comes, neither the imperial court nor Han Qi will escape the fate of destruction. Compared with Gao Yu, Han Qi is really much worse. Gao Yu saw clearly when he was dying, and the obvious things assigned were in Han Qi's hands, but now they are already crooked.

Xue Ping didn't understand at all, where did Han Qi get his confidence, so he was sure that Li Ze would definitely choose Datang? Without Datang, wouldn't Li Ze be able to live?

Every time he thought of this, Xue Ping couldn't help but scold Han Qi in his heart. As long as this battle is won, the Son of Heaven moves to Wuyi, and under the situation that Li Ze's family is dominant, others will naturally huddle together to keep warm, thus invisibly forming a group against Li Ze, the two sides both cooperate and confront, and then find a balance point in the middle. That's the perfect solution.

Of course, in this way, becoming the head of the forces against Li Ze is not necessarily him Han Qi, but the biggest possibility is himself, because only he can rely on his past friendship with Li Ze to form a situation of resistance but not breaking.

This may be what Han Qi does not want to see.

Lust for profit!

Xue Ping made a comment on Han Qi in his heart.

Isn't he afraid, Li Ze was angry, and simply beat this crockpot to pieces, and then he himself re-mixed the mud and re-cast a brand new jar?

It won't go on like this. As soon as the morning dawned, I went to find Li Ze again.

But what does Li Ze want?

Sitting in front of the desk, Xue Ping meditated.

The fifth watch drum sounded, Xue Ping still didn't have a clue, he simply made a basin of cold and washed his face, making himself look more excited, go to Li Ze now, even if he tore his face with him, he had to change the current situation.

No matter what internal contradictions there are, we must first clean up the enemy. It's a big deal that the imperial court would give Li Ze more compensation, and there are some things that must be given to him. For a long time to come, the imperial court must have Li Ze, the pillar of optimism, in order to survive.

"Squire, Niangniang sent someone to deliver a letter." A guard led a palace lady in.

"Huh?" Xue Ping was greatly surprised, the place where he lived was not far from the place where His Majesty's family was stationed, if the queen had something to find him, she would pass by herself with a message, why did she send someone to write a letter.

"I've seen the squire!" Gong E saluted Xue and said, "This is what the maid asked the slave to send to the waiter." ”

Xue Ping took the two letters handed over by Gong E with a question mark on his face, one on the top said Xue Ping personally in, staggered the first one, and the one below said Li Ze intimately.

Xue Ping was so shocked that he didn't care about the difference between men and women, grabbed Gong E, and asked sharply, "When did Niang Niang give you these two letters?" ”

Gong E looked at Xue Ping in a panic: "Xue Shilang, Niangniang handed over the letter to the slave maid when she was about the fourth watch, and asked the slave and maid to send the letter to Xue Shilang when she was on the fifth watch." ”

Xue Ping let go of Gong E, turned around and ran out, ran a few steps, and suddenly stopped again, and said sharply: "Someone." ”

Several guards appeared in front of him.

"Go, inform General Qin, and go to His Majesty's dormitory immediately, and tell the two of them, don't make a noise, and don't alarm others."

"Yes." The guards looked at Xue Ping's face and rushed out of the door with some nervousness.

"You, take me to the queen mother immediately!" Xue Ping clutched the letter in his hand tightly and said to the panicked Gong E.

In the queen's bedroom, the lights were still on, standing outside the door, Xue Ping motioned for Gong'e to go in and report. He stood a little nervously and anxiously outside the door, eager to break in as soon as possible.

There was a banging sound in the house, accompanied by an exclamation from Gong E, Xue Ping couldn't bear it anymore, and pushed the door and broke in.
