Chapter 238: The Difficult Emperor (26)

Shendu, Shangyang Palace.

Princess Taiping entered the palace to meet, accompanied the Empress Wu to visit the Fragrance Palace, strolled along the long water corridor of the valley, it was already autumn, the cold wind was in the face, there was cold smoke and decaying grass everywhere, there was really no scenery to look at.

The mother and daughter are not afraid of the cold, they talk and laugh together, and they are more delicate than flowers.

Walking to the end of the water corridor, Princess Taiping suddenly fell silent, and her feet froze, her eyes staring at a square brick in the square in front of her, stunned.

It was as if there was a young man in white covered in blood, scarred, before he came out of Lijingmen Prison, prostrate here, embarrassed and convulsed.

At that time, I saw it, I only felt ashamed and indignant, a dignified royal child, such an ugly form, lost the noble face of the Li family.

The "snap" slap was loud, and at that time, he rounded his arm, gave him a big mouth, and knocked him to the ground, the wound burst out, and the blood flowed all over the ground.

Princess Taiping shuddered violently, shrunk her hand, her five fingers clenched together, and a few crystals flashed in her eyes.

She also wondered why she had been in the country for so long, and when she remembered the scene again, she no longer felt ashamed and angry, only her heart ached and wanted to cry.

Empress Wu tilted his head, reached out and stroked Princess Taiping's cheek, touched a little wetness, paused for a moment, and sighed.

Princess Taiping woke up and didn't hide it at all, pulling the sleeves of the Empress Wu, with some coquettishness, "Mother, my daughter misses her nephew, when will he return?" ”

Empress Wu smiled gently, stroked Princess Taiping's back, and walked towards the nearby Shangqingguan, "He is not only your nephew, but also an official of the imperial court, it is natural to serve the country, there is no need to worry, I believe that he can make up for me in the southwest."

Princess Taiping's lips moved, and she didn't say anything more.

Empress Wu sat down in Shangqingguan, Wei Tuan'er led a group of hundreds of officials to serve in the house, Empress Wu read while discussing with Princess Taiping, Wei Tuan'er knelt behind the side, several times eager to try, but did not dare to speak, she is not Shangguan Wan'er after all, say some beautiful words, amuse and relieve boredom, there is really no insight into governing the country.

"Your Majesty, there is a secret performance of the edict by the Shangguan here" A little eunuch held a copy of the Yellow Seal Song, hurriedly entered the Shangqing Temple, and directly sent the Song Shu to the front of the Empress Wu.

Empress Wu stretched out her hand and picked it up, stood up very casually, avoided Wei Tuan'er and Princess Taiping, opened the secret music, and after sweeping the ten lines at a glance, she carefully read it again, closed the music, and pondered for a long time.

There was silence in Shangqing Temple, Princess Taiping and Wei Tuan'er both knelt in place, not daring to move a little, but there were essences flashing in their eyes, and their fear of Shangguan Wan'er was even deeper.

After a long time, Empress Wu sat back in front of the case, lifted the cinnabar pen, quickly approved, but did not avoid Princess Taiping, "The painting can be called detailed, but there are many things, unpredictable, you still need to be careful, every inch of gains and losses will not be investigated, and the overall situation of righteousness will be completed."

Empress Wu's Zhu Pi was handed back to the little eunuch together with Huang Feng's secret music, and hurriedly retreated.

After the secret performance, Empress Wu buried her head in reviewing the recital, and chatted with Princess Taiping, "Taiping, in the palace recently, the situation is still frequent, do you have anything to say?" ”

"The daughter thinks that the two sisters-in-law have misbehaved and violated the taboo, but after all, they are royal people, and they should still preserve some dignity and deal with it as soon as possible, so as not to cause troubles and endless turmoil in the DPRK and China" In all fairness, Princess Taiping is not very interested in helping Li Dan get out of trouble, but the imperial heir Concubine Liu, Concubine De Dou and others were detained and interrogated, although they are Xie Yaohuan's female deacon, it is still inevitable that some people will be unbearable to spread outside, and it will be a huge damage to the reputation and power of the entire Li family.

When Wei Tuan'er heard this, the muscles in his body tensed.

Empress Wu kept his hands on the hand, smiled, noncommittal, Taiping is ruthless, and ambitious, but his vision is short-sighted, at this time, no matter how to deal with the two cheap maids, above the history, Yu Wuhou himself and the Li family, are stains, the weakness of the emperor's heir will also be fixed, and it will be difficult to recover, only to delay, with its weakness and endangerment, but it will help Li Jiasheng to hate the enemy, win the sympathy and support of the court officials, gather strength, and then reach a new balance with the martial arts, Doulu Qinwang, who has always regarded himself as neutral, The gradual support for the imperial heir is a clear proof, this is the imperial pattern.

As for the disposal of those two cheap maids, they can't be put on the table, the more decent they are, the more embarrassing they are, why bother? It can be killed at any time, buried anywhere, and it is not worth a penny.

Intimidated by the faintly rising momentum of the Empress Wu, Princess Taiping did not dare to say more, and accompanied the Empress Wu to lunch, and Princess Taiping said goodbye and left the palace.

"Your Royal Highness, Princess Gao'an's Mansion has been active again recently, walking very diligently to the Wu'an County Mansion, contacting the staff of the original Chu Palace, and trying to walk around the Princess Qianjin's Mansion, Princess Qianjin closed her door" Xiangnu looked worried, paying close attention to the movements of several mansions related to the power policy, which was the order of Princess Taiping.

"Hmph, but it's not a safe one, when you get better, you have to make waves, and you don't weigh your own weight" Princess Taiping was in a bad mood and snorted coldly.

"But I need the slave to try to warn him, or, just let him get sick again" Xiangnu didn't have a good impression of this concubine, and he didn't have enough success and more than enough failures, except for causing trouble to Quan Langjun, he really didn't see any use.

Princess Taiping closed her eyes and muttered for a moment, waved her hand, and looked indifferent, "Don't care about him, maybe, it's also a chance"

Xiangnu hurriedly lowered his head, and took advantage of the moment when he called someone to come in and wait, and exited the carriage, his face was full of gloom, and he fell into worry again, the princess was more and more worried about Quan Langjun, but she always dug a pit and set up an ambush for Quan Langjun intentionally or unintentionally.

Quan Langjun is not muddy, she is really worried, if one day, he can't bear it, or the princess traps the people he cares about, then it is not a blessing for anyone.

Songzhou, choke Minling, control the source of the river, the left neighbor Helong, the right to Kangzang, the throat of the key to the place, the state city is stationed in Jiacheng County, the governor of 25 confined state capitals, more than 56,000 soldiers, facing Tibet, the border is mostly mountains and rivers, natural barriers, only the land of Anrong City, the terrain is relatively gentle, and the two sides have heavy troops to confront each other.

Anrong City was originally Emperor Taizong period, built by the Tang Dynasty, the geographical advantage is distinct, standing by the mountain, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack on all sides, it is a nail wedged into the flesh, since the expansion of Tibet, Anrong City has changed hands several times, most of the time, it is in the hands of the Tubo people, and therefore, the offensive and defensive trend of the two countries is reversed.

Gansong Ridge, the main temple of Sichuan, ushered in a group of special guests.

"Governor Handu, a long-admired daimyo"

There is a fine house in the temple, the right to policy inside, and an old monk about tea, the old monk is tall, white eyebrows and shoulders, full of goosebumps, the age should not be small, but the action is very neat, after listening to the right of the tea making suggestions, and see that he has a foreign guest to come, then he proclaimed a Buddha number, with a basket to exit the house.

This foreigner, but it came out of the sack, Han Xian slapped the dust on his body, spit a few mouthfuls of saliva on his mouth, twisted his thick eyebrows, and pointed like a knife, and scolded sharply, "Who are you?" If you dare to do such a rebellious thing against this governor, I will send a large army here and slaughter this mountain temple together."

Quan Ce looked on his back, and groaned helplessly, Xian Yu Shijian said that this gentleman was chaotic, and sure enough.

He changed his tone and simply ** naked, "Han Dudu, are you interested in making a deal?" ”

"What's the deal? How can the Governor trust you? Han Xian's face was gloomy.

"You can only trust me, because I can take your life at any time"

"Hahaha" Han Xianhong laughed loudly, and gradually guessed the little white face with fine skin and tender flesh in front of him, I am afraid that it is the Qin Chaquan Langjun, "If you take my life, you can't do anything big for him."

Quan Ce looked at him quietly and laughed, his face was indifferent, "What is my big thing, it's up to me to decide, I will punish the silverfish in the South Sword Road, it can be said that the big thing has been accomplished, I have recaptured Anrong City, it can also be said that the big thing has been accomplished, the difference is that the former you die, and the latter you live"

Quan Ce walked up to Han Xian, half a head taller than him, and said word by word, "Han Dudu, don't be smart"

Han Xian grimaced with an orange peel face, "I'm afraid that Quan Langjun only cares about making meritorious contributions, where will he be able to guarantee the life and death of this governor?" ”

"As you say," Quan Ce twisted his neck, and hurried day and night, clicking, "I only care about making meritorious deeds, and if you die, what good will it do to my meritorious deeds?" Let Duan Lun and them die, it's enough."

"You, do you know it's Duan Lun?" Han Xian was shocked.

"Han Dudu, I know more than you, for example, you have a long history under your account, and there is a Tibetan man hidden in your home"
