"In this case, why does the seventh brother want to be a brother?"

Li Hong is not an ordinary person in the end, although he was shocked by Li Xian's earth-shattering words, but he quickly came back to his senses, looked at Li Xian with flickering eyes, and asked calmly.

"Brother Prince, now that the situation is like this, in your opinion, can Liu Shangshu be saved?" Li Xian did not answer Li Hong's question directly, but asked in a calm voice.

"How about keeping it? What if you can't keep it? The seventh brother has a prejudice about this, so he might as well spread it out and say okay, just listen to it for the brother. From Li Xian's usual style, Li Hong can draw a conclusion, that is, Li Xian's vigilance against the Empress Wu is even three points greater than his own, even so, Li Hong doesn't mind taking advantage of Li Xian's thoughts, and at this time he simply played a scoundrel, not only did not explain his own opinions first, but in turn turned Li Xian's army.

Oh, this guy is really difficult, compared to the sixth child, it's not a little bit stronger, but it's a pity that the luck is too bad, and there is such a thief in the stall, and in the end he still can't escape the doom of death! Li Xian didn't expect Li Hong to stabilize his position so quickly, and he still admired Li Hong's bearing in his heart, but he couldn't help but feel a little more emotional, but after thinking about it, his luck didn't seem to be much better than Li Hong, and the Empress Wu was also his Li Xian's mother, although Li Xian didn't want to recognize such a femme fatale's mother, but the fact was that there was no easier existence, as soon as he thought of this, Li Xian's heart couldn't help but be darkened, and he was in a trance for a while.

"Brother Prince, please forgive my brother for speaking bluntly, whether you can keep it or not, if you really start a court lawsuit, who can be the arbiter? I'm afraid that it will be the queen mother, as soon as this case is opened, the consequences will be so please ask the prince's brother to consider it himself. "Li Xian III is a human being, his mind has long been close to the demon, although he was in a trance for a while, he was not addicted, he woke up in a moment, arched his hand to Li Hong with a solemn face, and persuaded him sincerely.

"Humph!" As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, Li Hong's originally calm face instantly sank again, and he snorted coldly, and his chest suddenly rose and fell a few times because of this, as if there was anger rolling in his chest, and then, after his face twitched violently a few times, he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Seventh brother, is this trying to persuade Gu to give up Liu Shangshu?" Can't do it! ”

Can't do it? I'll you, your kid's head is flattened by the door? In such a situation, what kind of woman's benevolence is still played, is it not looking for death! Rao is Li Xian has a good temper, and he was also choked by Li Hong's attitude, and the nameless fire in his heart also surged up, his face turned blue instantly, and he replied with a sneer: "Since the prince's brother is so capable, then even if the courtier's brother is in vain, say goodbye!" As soon as the words fell, he immediately stood up, no matter what Li Hong's face was, he was about to leave with a flick of his sleeves.

"Seventh brother, slow down!"

Li Hong obviously didn't expect Li Xian's reaction to be so intense, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then saw that Li Xian had walked to the door, and couldn't help but be a little panicked, you must know that Li Hong was under the heavy pressure of the Empress Wu at this time, and he was really powerless and unwilling to fight against Li Xian's brothers, how dare he really make Li Xian feel ruthless, he didn't dare to let Li Xian go away in such a bad mood, he hurriedly stood up, shouted while rushing to the door, blocked Li Xian's way, and shook his head with a wry smile: " Why is the seventh brother so anxious, can there be anything that can be discussed, is it not possible to count the elder brother wrong, come, the seventh brother sat down and said, sat down and said. ”

"The prince's brother Haihan, the courtier's brother is rude."

Li Xian didn't come here to be angry with the prince, before the big thing was done, Li Xian actually didn't want to leave at all, the reason why he left in a bad mood was just acting, at this time, after Li Hong's persuasion, Li Xian was naturally happy to get off the donkey, and apologized very respectfully, and then sat back in his place, but his mouth was tightly closed, as if he didn't want to say more.

"The seventh brother's previous words are especially unfinished, it seems that there is still a plan, as the so-called one person is short, two people are long, and the seventh brother is asked to elaborate on it, so that the brother can make up for it from the side." Li Hong waited for a while, and saw that Li Xian had been refusing to speak, so in desperation, he had to take the lead in breaking the silence.

"Brother Mingjian, according to what the younger brother has seen, wants to avoid the corruption of the court, and now there is only one step to go, that is Liu Shangshu invited himself to beg for the old, so that the target has been lost, and the villain has nothing to borrow, this is the best policy!" Although Li Xian had seen from Li Hong's previous actions that he was unwilling to give up Liu Shendao, Li Xian still had to say clearly.

"This ......, let's discuss it again, the seventh brother has the best policy, presumably there should be two strategies in the middle and the bottom, so please say that it will come out." Sure enough, as Li Xian expected, Li Hong's brows immediately tightened when he heard this, and after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't give a clear answer.

"It's easy to make a decision, even if the prince brother goes to fight a court lawsuit, it doesn't matter if he loses or wins, in short, he will make a big fuss, and it will be cheaper in the end, and it's hard to say." Although he knew that Li Xian would not take the best strategy, when he heard Li Xian's answer of waiting for warm water, Li Xian couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he didn't bring it to his face, so he smiled and threw out the next strategy first.

"This ...... seems to be inappropriate, because my brother really doesn't want to take it, and I ask the seventh brother to talk about the best strategy." Li Hong is not stupid, how could he not know that once the court lawsuit starts, I am afraid that it will not be possible to settle the court discussion once or twice, and in the protracted period, no matter whether he wins or loses, it will definitely not be him who will benefit, and he will not accept such a stupid method.

"The middle strategy is to decide the winner or loser, once the wind is not right, Liu Shangshu still has to ask himself to beg for the old, and then the prince's brother is in a hurry to submit the successor, and the younger brother should be attached to the tail, once the discussion is over, the impact of this matter may be minimized." Li Xian knew that it was impossible for Li Hong to choose the next policy, so he unhurriedly said the middle policy.

"Oh?" As soon as Li Hong heard the middle strategy, he immediately became a little moved, but he didn't want to be too eager in front of Li Xian, so he said noncommittally, frowned, and silently calculated the pros and cons of the gains and losses. ”

What to do? That's too simple, the benefits are just taken, everything else is nonsense! Li Xian smiled and said: "Brother the prince is polite, the younger brother is alone, and there is no need for it, but this matter is not something that the younger brother can do alone, well, the younger brother heard that Yang Wu, the servant of the Ministry of Works, is very capable, and he is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, if there is a vacancy in the Ministry of Works, it should be able to withstand it, in addition, the supervision of the imperial history Lynch has been in office for a long time, and it is time to adjust it upwards, it seems that he can be promoted to serve the imperial history (from the sixth grade), and the criminal department member Wailang (from the sixth grade) Wang Feng is diligent, and it seems that he can be promoted to the position of Langzhong (from the fifth grade), and then there is... …”

Since it is the asking price, Li Xian will naturally not be polite, and he has reported the promotion of more than a dozen officials, who are basically the henchmen of Li Xian, the king of Lu, and only one person is from Li Xian's own subordinate officials to the court - the three years of service in the palace of the Dianjun Xiao Qianwang have expired, and as usual, he should be released as a local military general, but Li Xian asked to arrange him into the right Jin Wuwei as a Zhonglang general, which is regarded as a first-order official rank.

"Isn't this embarrassing for the seventh brother, the position of Shangshu is a heavy weapon of the court, if it is not the edict of the father, how can others be easier, although Yang Shilang is virtuous, but the Ministry of Industry is now flawless, and there is nothing to be done for the brother, as for the promotion of the rest of the people, the brother can only follow the rules, it is really not exceeded, this article also asks the seventh brother to forgive me." Li Xian's head was a lion's mouth, and Li Hong immediately bargained on the spot, except for biting Yang Wu to death and not being promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, the rest agreed vaguely.

"Yes, the younger brother has a share of the capital, and I also asked the prince's brother to consider it, and there is no need to force it if it doesn't work." Li Hong is now in charge of the affairs of the river work, naturally he is unwilling to let the Ministry of Industry fall aside, this Li Xianzi knows in his heart, the reason why he mentioned the lack of the Ministry of Industry is actually just a means of bargaining, since he doesn't care much about Li Hong's refusal, he smiled, took out a fold from the wide sleeves, stood up, held it in both hands, and handed it to Li Hong's hands.

If you can't do it, you don't have to force it? Look, Li Xian said this very authentically, the capital is guaranteed, and those who have it are not, it really makes Li Hong have the urge to scold his mother, but at this moment, Li Hong didn't dare to really offend Li Xian, so he had no choice but to take the capital with a wry smile, and he didn't look at it, but just put it on a few pieces casually, and said in a deep voice: "The seventh brother's affairs will do his best for the brother, and I hope that the seventh brother will not forget the agreement between you and me." ”

"This is natural, the younger brother should take the prince's brother as the head of the horse, without further ado, the younger brother will arrange it first, and when the news is clear, the younger brother will fully cooperate." Sniping the Empress Wu is Li Xian's original intention, even if Li Hong doesn't give benefits, Li Xian has to work hard, as for the benefits, it's just a matter of incident, of course, if there is no sweetness, it is difficult for Li Xian to persuade Li Xian to fully cooperate, and now that the prince has given enough benefits, Li Xian will naturally accept it when he sees it, so he stood up and said with a smile.

"The seventh brother has worked hard, please go slowly, I won't send it for my brother." Although Li Hong vaguely agreed to Li Xian's request, in fact, he was still hesitating in his heart, and was anxious to discuss some countermeasures with Yan and Liu, the two confidant ministers, when he saw that Li Xian was leaving, he was in the middle of it, smiled and returned the half-salute, and let Li Xian go by himself, but Li Xian's people had not yet turned the screen in front of the door of the study, and Li Hong's face was already gloomy......
