"What? Uncle Eight thinks there's something wrong, huh? ”

Seeing that Li Zhen had been there for a long time and couldn't say why, the smile on Li Xian's face had slowly faded, and he asked unceremoniously.

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that the old minister rarely asks about the affairs of the ministry and is not very familiar with the affairs of the ministry, but since His Royal Highness thinks it is feasible, then it should be so, and the old minister has no objection."

Li Zhen's strategy is to meet the source left and right, although he doesn't want to offend Empress Wu, but he also doesn't want to have a head-on conflict with Li Xian, anyway, who Li Xian wants to recommend, it's not something he can control, and there is nothing to say about agreeing with empty teeth, in view of this, Li Zhen's eyes rolled slightly, and he replied respectfully.

"It's good that the eighth uncle can think like this, the little nephew is soft-spoken, and he has an old relationship with Luo Bin Wang, so he suddenly moved the book, and he was afraid of being discussed, so he asked the eighth uncle to recommend Luo Bin Wang Kecheng on his behalf?"

Li Xian made such a big formation, what he wanted was naturally not empty and groundless support, but a real recommendation, how could he be fooled by Li Zhen, which unceremoniously put forward the fundamental purpose of this invitation.

"Ah, this, this ......"

As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, Li Zhen's heart was in turmoil, and then he was shocked to discover Li Xian's ambition, and he actually wanted him Li Zhen to come forward and fight in court with the Empress Wu, which was completely beyond Li Zhen's bottom limit, and he refused to accept it, but it was not good to refuse Li Xian's proposal in person, after all, the sword on his head was not fun, in case Li Xian was really ruthless, in the end, it would only be him Li Zhen himself, in this urgency, the sweat on his forehead could not stop gushing out.

"Is Uncle Eight very embarrassed? Anyway, the little nephew is not happy to be himself, there is a copy of Xiao Ming, the right attendant of the ministry, if the eighth uncle sees that it is feasible, how about a joint name on it? ”

Li Xian didn't give Li Zhen a chance to breathe at all, and didn't care how embarrassed her face was, he reached out and took out a yellow silk fold from the wide sleeve, held it in both hands and handed it to Li Zhen, and he didn't want to force him to write as a basis.

"Your Highness, the old minister is really not familiar with the affairs of the ministry, and the matter is very high, can you allow the old minister to think about it carefully, and then come back to ask His Highness for benefits?"

The importance of Luoyang Mansion Yin is needless to say, if it weren't for his own strength not being strong enough, Li Zhen would have already reached out to compete for this position, even if he was facing a strong person like the Empress Wu, he would not hesitate to do it, but if he wanted him to help Li Xian go to the fire, it was naturally not what he wanted, although he had been forced into a corner by Li Xian at this time, Li Zhen still had a trace of luck, and did not reach out to pick up the fold handed over by Li Xian, but bowed down and replied apologetically with an apologetic face.

"Of course, this is a matter of course, the eighth uncle might as well take the fold back, think about it carefully, if it is feasible, please sign it, if you don't want to, the little nephew is not reluctant, just give the little nephew a reply before sunset."

Knowing that Li Zhen was planning to play a procrastination strategy, Li Xian didn't care at all, smiled lightly, and didn't force it, and commanded generously.

"The old minister respectfully obeys the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Hearing Li Xian's words, even if Li Zhen was unwilling, he didn't dare to force it anymore, so he could only stretch out his hands, respectfully take the fold, hold it carefully, bow his head, and respectfully agree to the promise.

"Okay, the eighth uncle will be tired, and the little nephew is waiting for the good news from the eighth uncle."

Everything that should be said has been said, and the rest depends on how Li Zhen chooses, Li Xian is too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he smiled and waved his hand and gave the order to expel the guest.

"The old minister retired."

The situation was extremely serious, Li Zhen wanted to stay longer for a moment, this time Li Xian gave an order to evict guests, just got up in a hurry, saluted respectfully, withdrew from the back garden by himself, went straight out of the East Palace, got into the carriage and rushed back to his house......

"Father, something happened, and the people in the East Palace blocked the business name for some reason!"

Li Zhen returned to his study with all his heart, and just turned the screen, and before he could even catch his breath, his eldest son Li Chong had already rushed forward with a roar, and shouted anxiously.

"Panic, what's going on? Say! ”

What you are afraid of is really coming, Li Zhen was worried that things would not go so smoothly, and when she heard that her business name was really targeted by the East Palace, her heart couldn't help but sink, but she didn't want to lose her temper in front of the princes and all the henchmen, so she broke off with a cold face.

"Back to my father's words, here's the thing, early this morning, not long after my father went to the East Palace, someone from the other end of the business sent to the business, saying that a group of guards in the East Palace broke into the business with a few stretchers, saying that a guard bought wine in my business was fake, and after drinking, several people fell down, and asked my business to be responsible for compensation, and the dispute arose, and then, out of nowhere, a large number of people came out of nowhere, and actually surrounded my business, and now it is making a lot of noise, and the children dare not be arbitrary, please make it clear to my father."

was reprimanded by Li Zhen like this, and Li Chong was choked when he boarded, but he didn't dare to slack off, so he could only stabilize his mind a little, and hurriedly reported the news he had obtained.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard that this was the case, Li Zhen's pupils immediately shrank, and he had already guessed what Li Xian's intentions were, there was no doubt that this was a warning, if Li Zhen did not follow his pace, the original disturbance would soon turn into a large-scale raid, and when he thought of the confidential information in the "Evergreen Firm" that was too late to be transferred, Li Zhen's heart suddenly became frightened, and his hand involuntarily touched the fold in his sleeve.

"Father, the business name must not be lost, the East Palace is too deceitful, and let the child lead the troops to reinforcements, you must not indulge this group of dog minions!"

Li Chong was irritable, and when he saw that his father had not spoken for a long time, he couldn't hold it back, and volunteered angrily.

"Father, don't be like this, the child thinks that the East Palace is just a bluff, how dare he do anything wrong in broad daylight, is it really no king's law!"

Li Qian had a dispute with Li Chong before, for the sake of whether the Yue Wangfu should come forward, and at this time, seeing that his brother advocated to make a move, he objected disapprovingly.

"The second brother Hugh wants to talk nonsense, the business name is the important land of my Yue Wangfu, how can it be lost, if it falls, the consequences are unimaginable!"

As soon as he heard Li Qian singing against himself, Li Chong's face immediately became a little unbearable, his eyes widened, he took out his brother's posture, and scolded him unceremoniously.

"That's enough, all stand down!"

Li Zhen was irritable in her heart, and she was even more annoyed by the second son's quarrel, so she flicked her sleeves angrily and drove all the sons out of the study, leaving Pei Shoude alone.

"Lord Wang, the East Palace's move is strange, but has it made any undivided requests?"

Pei Shoude is a thinker in the end, and his intelligence is extraordinary, although Li Zhen has not yet opened his mouth to explain, he has vaguely guessed the truth, but he is not sure, so he asked inquiringly.

"Well, let's see."

Li Zhen was annoyed, and she was really too lazy to explain, so she reached out and took out the fold given by Li Xian from her sleeve, and threw it in front of Pei Shoude, and snorted a little impetuously.

"Luoyang Mansion Yin? Oh, Donggong is really bold, and he has a lot of appetite! Since I want to come forward beyond the palace, I can't just say it with empty teeth after all. ”

Pei Shoude picked up the fold, passed it quickly, smashed his lips, and laughed, his tone full of sarcasm.

"Well, there are only two, one is to let Wen'er return to the court, and the other is to promise not to investigate the previous attack on the granary, and to give a reply before sunset, this is the case, what does Shoude think it should be?"

Li Zhen was like dough by Li Xian in the East Palace before, and she was deeply ashamed in her heart, and she didn't want to talk about it in detail, so she simply explained the two requirements given by Li Xian.

"This guy is really domineering, I'm afraid the court situation will be so troublesome! But it's okay, and let his mother and son fight, I can wait for the next day! ”

Pei Shoude has suffered a big loss under Li Xian, knowing that this son is ruthless and has never acted according to common sense, every time the sword goes sideways, but he can hit it with one hit, he subconsciously doesn't want to fight Li Xian head-on, but seeing Li Zhen's face full of reluctance, but it is not easy to say it too clearly, this sighs with hints.

"In the long run, it's okay to mess up, but at the moment this level is not good, if Lone is out of this side, I am afraid that the mother will not look good, after all, it is necessary to take a balance."

Li Zhen is very human, quite intelligent, although Pei Shoude said vaguely, but he heard the subtext in his words, it is nothing more than a temporary compliment to Li Xian's intentions, although he also knows that when he is under the eaves, it is right to bow his head, but first, he is quite unwilling in his heart, and secondly, he is also worried that the Empress Wu will be surprised, although he can win Li Wen's return, but the heavy promises made by the Empress Wu are afraid that they will be in vain, so that the matter of participating in the night attack at the beginning of the month is not in vain, this is not a situation that Li Zhenle has seen, It's just that he can't find a balance, so he can only pin his hopes on Pei Shoude's wisdom.

"The prince said well, the balance is right, now the dispute between his mother and son has risen, it will only intensify, and it is difficult to have a stable time, in terms of my Yue Wangfu, Dali also, as for the balance of this matter, it is not difficult to find, the prince is going to be co-branded, although the prince does it, he has his own clever plan to deal with it!"

Pei Shoude did not live up to Li Zhen's expectations, only thought about it for a while, and had already made a decision in his heart, so he smiled confidently and explained it paragraph by paragraph.

"Oh? Will the plan be safe? ”

Li Zhen had a headache because she couldn't make a profit at both ends, and when she heard that Pei Shoude had a way to deal with it, her spirit immediately lifted up, and she hurriedly asked questions.

"Don't worry, this matter can be divided into two steps......"

Pei Shoude stroked the long beard on his chest, smiled smugly, stuck it in front of Li Zhen, and explained it carefully, and Li Zhen nodded again and again, and the originally tense complexion gradually eased......
