Gao Lishi has not heard the name Xiao Gao for many years, although the name is very casual, but this is the common name that Li Longji used to call him when he was young. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At that time, Li Longji did not have the power of the Tang Empire, and he did not have much imperial posture, he was like a friend to him, and when he ascended the throne, he did not forget him, and gave him great power in return.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they were all gray-haired old men, and recalling the events of his youth, Colliers was seriously choked with tears.

"Everyone, slave ......"

Colliers was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

"Okay, Xiao Gao, I have been an old partner with you for many years, even if I doubt everyone, I will not doubt you, your loyalty to me, in the entire Tang Dynasty, no one can compare, I trust you more than everyone."

Li Longji had already guessed through Gao Lishi's heart, and hurriedly comforted him.

"Everyone, the slave maid was not able to stay by your side when you were assassinated, and the slave maid was sad."

Gao Lishi's true feelings were revealed, and he cried a lot.

"Don't cry, isn't it okay for me?"

Li Longji paused, looked outside, and said, "Xiao Gao! Go outside and check on the situation, and come back and tell me. ”

"Yes, everybody."

Gao Lishi wiped his tears, walked out of the Zichen Palace, and returned not long after.

"What's the matter, it's time to come!"

Li Longji asked.

"Everyone, basically all the kings and emperors and grandsons, only King Shou is not there, and the ministers above the fifth grade, Li Shilang has not arrived."

Although Gao Lishi only glanced at it casually, he basically figured out all the situation, and even recorded the eyes of each prince, grandson and minister.

Li Longji pondered for a moment and said: "Li Shilang is busy developing aircraft, he may not know yet, besides, with his temperament, he doesn't care about showing loyalty, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come, King Shou burns incense and recites Buddha all day long, he must stay in the temple, the news is fast, and the people inside and outside the capital will soon know, but the temple is an exception, and the people will not go to the temple to talk about my assassination." ”

"What everyone said is that they have been waiting outside for an hour, as long as they see that His Majesty is safe and sound, they can rest assured."

Colliers nodded.

"Don't worry, just let them wait a little longer!"

After Li Longji finished speaking, he closed his eyes and recuperated like an old monk.

He was still thinking about the problem of the traitor, and at the same time, he also sent some henchmen to secretly observe the reactions of the princes, grandsons and ministers, to see what these people were doing, what expressions they had, whether they were afraid, worried, or happy.

"Xiao Gao."

"Everyone, what do you command?"

"Just send someone to tell King Shou and Li Shilang and let them know about it."

Li Longji ordered.

"Yes, everybody."

Outside the Zichen Palace, the princes and ministers were still discussing enthusiastically, however, some of the older ones were already feeling tired, how could they not be tired after standing for more than an hour, but they were here to show their loyalty, and they didn't see the emperor safe and sound, and they couldn't leave casually.

Li Linfu's health is not very good, after all, he is old, so after standing for a while, his forehead is sweating, and there are several old ministers, who also have beads of sweat on their foreheads.

However, unless they faint directly, they are not allowed to sit down and rest, the emperor has been assassinated, they can only show anxiety and concern, how can they sit there and rest like a lord?

And in the end, the core issue that everyone considers is the problem of the mole, and when talking about the mole, their voices are all lowered a lot without exception, for fear of being heard by people from afar, only officials with better relationships will talk about the problem of the mole, however, no one dares to guess someone at will, so as not to give people a handle.

In the meditation room of Xingguo Temple, Li Mao is closing his eyes and recuperating, his current mood must be very bad, Yang Yuhuan and Li Longji went to Huaqing Palace to soak in the hot springs, he naturally knows, in this way, his mood naturally does not need to be repeated, if he does not suppress the Buddha nature, his mood will really collapse.

"His Royal Highness King Shou, someone has come to the palace."

"Let him in."

Li Mao replied expressionlessly.

"The slave has seen His Royal Highness King Shou."

"Hmm."

Li Mao didn't bother to ask, just hummed.

"His Royal Highness King Shou, Your Majesty was on a trip today, and was attacked by assassins, the royal train fell into the river, and fifty assassins raided Your Majesty......"

Li Mao was stunned when he heard this, the first thing he thought of was the Tubo man Tashi Zan, who had found him a few days ago, when Tashi Zan boasted that he wanted to assassinate the emperor, he didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect to really do it, and the consequences were quite considerable.

He didn't have much affection for his father in his heart, of course he wouldn't be sad, he didn't have the slightest expression on his face, and asked lightly: "Your Majesty is really fine." ”

"Your Majesty is just bruised and frightened, and the imperial doctor said that it only takes a few days to recuperate, and His Royal Highness King Shou does not need to worry."

Li Mao nodded: "Got it." ”

The little eunuch turned around and wanted to leave, paused, and turned back and said, "His Royal Highness King Shou, all the princes are in the palace, so I will send you one." ”

"Hmm."

Li Mao had no intention of going to the palace, and even responded reluctantly, he didn't care about his father's life and death, nor did he care about being despised, he was already despised enough, and there was no need to show loyalty at all.

As for whether he would be suspected, he didn't care, besides, with his father's virtue, no matter how good he pretended, he could still be suspected, he did not participate in the assassination, and he had a clear conscience.

In the office of the R&D center, Li An is reading the report sent below, the research and development of the aircraft has made great progress, the design of the wing has been completely completed, and the manufacturing will begin soon.

The engine and propeller are more troublesome, and they need to be studied slowly, and as for the problem of funding, there is no shortage at all.

"Li Shilang, someone from the palace has come."

"Oh, there's someone in the palace, what could it be?"

Li An said something to himself, got up and greeted him.

"What is Your Majesty's will?"

Li Ang asked.

"Li Shilang, Your Majesty went to Huaqing Palace today and met an assassin halfway."

"What, Your Majesty met the Assassin, how is the situation, how is Your Majesty?"

Li An was taken aback, the assassination of the emperor is a big event, in case the emperor hangs, it will seriously affect the fate of an empire, however, it is certain that the emperor must still be alive, otherwise, the little eunuch will not say that he met an assassin on the road, but report the news of the emperor's death with a sad face, no, if the emperor dies, there is no need for the little eunuch to report, the bell and drum in the capital have already reached the research and development center.

"Li Shilang rest assured, Your Majesty is fine, but he has a bruise and is a little frightened, the prince and ministers are in the palace, so Li Shilang is missing."

"Your Majesty is fine, the official will make a little preparation, and he will go to the palace in a while."

Li An answered, and then went to make a simple arrangement for work, and then rode his horse to the palace with the little eunuch.

On the way, Li An inquired in detail about the emperor's assassination, and the little eunuch didn't know much, but he still knew the general situation.

And through the little eunuch's narration, Li An finally understood the general situation, and at the same time was taken aback, the emperor's special train actually fell into the river, fortunately the emperor is fine, otherwise, he will be implicated, although the train and railroad tracks were invented by himself?

Of course, even if you ride in a carriage, you will encounter Assassins, but no one will listen to you.

"Right Minister, Yang Taifu, are they all there?"

Ang Lee greeted everyone warmly.

"Li Shilang is really busy! We've all been waiting here for more than an hour. ”

Yang Zhao's words meant accusation, complaining that he came too late, but Li An didn't care.

"It's not very busy, it's just that someone has just announced, so I hurried here, how is it, how is Your Majesty?"

"Li Shilang don't worry, Your Majesty is fine, but the train derailed and fell into the river, and it sounds quite scary."

Li Linfu said.

"Your Majesty is fine, these assassins are really bold, they dare to attack Your Majesty, I really don't want to live!"

"Who's to say it isn't? His Majesty has already ordered a manhunt, and by the way, this time two Tibetan assassins have also been captured, so maybe a little bit of information can be interrogated. ”

Li Linfu said, looking at Li An: "I heard that Li Shilang is busy developing airplanes, machines that can fly into the sky. ”

"That's right, the right side is also interested in airplanes."

Li Linfu sighed and said meaningfully: "Li Shilang! Regardless of whether the plane can fly into the sky, even if it can really fly into the sky, it will fly very fast, in case it falls down, it is not a joke, this time His Majesty took the train to have such a big thing, if it is an airplane, the consequences are unimaginable! ”

"Youxiang is right, the machine flying in the sky, this is too dangerous, if you are not careful, you may fall down."

"If something so dangerous is developed, wouldn't it kill many people."

Several ministers chimed in.

Li An nodded and said: "What the right minister said makes sense, even if the plane is successfully developed, there is a possibility of falling, and as long as the plane falls, everyone sitting in the plane will almost die, but the plane is fast enough, Datang still needs it, and it will be much faster than a stagecoach to deliver urgent documents in the future." ”

"But if you fall, the loss will be too great."

"It is precisely because of the huge loss of falling, so we must carefully research and develop to reduce the chance of accidents, and occasionally fall a few can not affect the overall situation, of course, such a dangerous machine, only let ordinary people use."

Ang Lee opened his mouth to explain.

"Li Shilang, I still feel ...... below"

Li An entered the palace to visit the emperor, but the topic was pulled and ran to the plane, so that most of the officials joined in.

Outside the Zichen Palace, there was a lively discussion of airplanes, and inside the Zichen Palace, Li Longji was still thinking deeply, thinking about the assassin.

"What's the situation outside, what are the princes and ministers doing?"

Li Longji saw his henchman and little eunuch come in, and opened his mouth to ask.

"Everyone, the prince and the ministers, have been talking about His Majesty's assassination, but since Li Shilang came, they have started talking about airplanes again."

The little eunuch reported truthfully.

"What, it's all about going on the plane."

Li Longji's heart flashed 10,000 me, he had just experienced a life and death catastrophe, and the ministers and princes outside suddenly changed the topic because of Ang Lee's arrival, and this also reflected the strength of Ang Lee's strength from one side.

"Princes and ministers, how are you doing, what's unusual?"

Li Longji frowned and looked at the little eunuch.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid has not found anything abnormal, and the prince and the minister are very worried about Your Majesty, and they are all waiting for Your Majesty's summons."

"Well, it's time to meet them, and give them a decree to let them enter the temple."

Li Longji also tested enough, and let everyone enter the hall.

According to their positions and statuses, everyone entered from the gate of the Zichen Hall and knelt down to salute the emperor.

"I'm worried about you, how am I okay?"

In order to let the prince and ministers see the toughness of his body, Li Longji stood up and walked towards the prince and ministers.

"You must be happy that I'm safe and sound, but aren't some people unhappy?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers don't dare."

Everyone heard the meaning of the emperor's words and quickly knelt down to show their loyalty.

"Get up! I know that you are all loyal to me, and the assassination of Tubo will soon wake up, and when the time comes, the real murderer will be tried, and you Aiqing will not have to worry about it. ”

Li Longji looked at everyone with a smile and observed the changes in everyone's expressions.

And every minister who was observed was a little hairy, they were worried that the emperor would doubt themselves, but at the same time they had a clear conscience, so they would not worry too much.

After watching it for a long time, Li Longji was puzzled, the expressions of all the ministers were as he expected, and none of them were abnormal, that is, none of them looked like they were colluding with the assassins.

"I'm just a little frightened, my body is fine, you can rest assured, go back!"

Li Longji waved his hand and asked everyone to go back, leaving a few ministers alone.

"How's Li Shilang's plane going?"

Li Longji looked at Li An first, his expression a little strange.

"Your Majesty, Wechen is working hard to develop it, and I believe that it will be able to test fly in half a year."

Ang Lee replied defenselessly.

"I am very relieved that Li Shilang can have such confidence, but I dare not take a plane in my life, and I will still fall into the water when I take the train, if the plane falls, how can I be fine."

Li Longji praised Ang Lee on the surface, but his words were very sour, and he seemed to be slightly dissatisfied in his heart, but he understood that it was not Ang Lee's fault, but just a little dissatisfaction.

Li An quickly understood the unhappiness in Li Longji's heart, although he did not make any mistakes, but the train was indeed invented by himself, if he hadn't invented the train himself, how could the emperor have fallen into the river.

"What Your Majesty said is that this time Your Majesty is in distress, and Weichen also has an unshirkable responsibility."

Ang Lee sincerely apologized.

"Oh, what a crime Li Shilang has!"

Li Longji asked in a sour tone.
