On April 28 of the first year of Qianfeng, it was the day of the early dynasty again, the courtiers arrived at the small square outside the imperial city early, each gathered into some small circles of different sizes, and talked about it secretly, the topic was not far from the river work, the benevolent saw the benevolent, the wise saw the wisdom, and the discussion was very happy, the posture was several times more lively than the formal deliberations in the court, and everything indicated that today's court discussion or would be a watershed in the direction of the court, who can benefit in the end is not easy to say, of course, Not all the courtiers were happy to express their opinions at this time, and the new overseer of the Imperial Palace, King Luo Bin, obviously did not have such a plan, and not only did he not gather among the courtiers, but deliberately hid in a corner where no one was paying attention.

Luo Bingwang has been an official for some years, but for him, it is really the first time, but despite this, it does not mean that there are no familiar people among the officials in the square, in fact, many ministers in the field are Luo Bingwang's poetry friends, and they also get together to comment on poetry and talk about Taoism on weekdays, and the relationship is good, but at this moment, Luo Bingwang really doesn't want to get together with the ministers, just because he has too much involvement in his heart.

King Luo Bin was just involved in trivial matters a few days ago, originally thought that it was inevitable to be dismissed, but because of the intervention of Li Xian, the king of Zhou, he was able to keep his official position, although King Luo Bin did not say it, but he still remembered Li Xian's feelings in his heart, and also accepted Li Xian's request, and wrote a letter about recruiting the world's talents, and he was going to wait for Li Xian to visit when he paid a business, which was regarded as a personal favor, but he never thought that Li Xian did not come, but Liu Xiangdao, an old friend, came first, and actually brought a letter of appointment to supervise the imperial history, The intimacy of the past was completely lost between the words, but there were a lot of flickering tentative meanings, which made the second monk of Luo Bin Wang Zhangzhang confused, and he couldn't understand what was going on with his promotion for no reason, and he didn't understand why Liu Xiangdao wanted to send the letter of appointment to the mansion in person so mysteriously, and he didn't know what Liu Xiangdao's words meant, until Li Xian sent someone to inform him of the early dynasty, and King Luo Bin suddenly realized that he dared to be inadvertent, and he had actually become the party of the king of Zhou. This made King Luo Bin really annoyed, I really don't know how to deal with himself in the early court today, no, I couldn't close my eyes all night, until this time, King Luo Bin still couldn't make up his mind on whether he should follow Li Xian's instructions, not to mention how uncomfortable the irritability in his heart was, and he would not have the heart to participate in the chaos of the courtiers.

"Look, His Royal Highness King Lu has come down."

"Hey, His Royal Highness King Zhou has also arrived, strange, didn't I hear that the two brothers just had a big fight, why did they arrive at the same time?"

"Alas, the princes, who can say clearly, don't care, the time for the last dynasty is almost up, I'm afraid there will be a good show in the court today."

……

At the moment when King Luo Bing's thoughts were mixed, King Lu Li Xian and King Li Xian of Zhou came together, and the two brothers got out of the carriage and got together to talk and laugh, and the intimacy made all the courtiers a little dumbfounded, and for a while the sound of discussion was loud, and King Luo Bin was also awakened by this, and looked at the two kings who were surrounded by important ministers, Luo Bingwang's face changed several times in an instant, and immediately, he grew a breath of air, and his heart seemed to have made a decision......

"Going up, going up ......"

Li Xian and the brothers obviously calculated the point, and before the ministers finished greeting them, there was a sound of eunuchs shouting at the palace gate, in view of this, the courtiers did not dare to slack off a little, and they lined up according to their ranks, and marched into the Chengtian Gate, and went straight to the Taiji Hall along the palace avenue.

"The Holy One has arrived!"

Perhaps because of the importance of the early dynasty today, Gaozong did not let the courtiers wait as usual, and the courtiers had just taken their seats in the main hall, and Gaozong had already turned out of the apse, followed by the crown prince Li Hong.

"The ministers knock to see the saint, see His Royal Highness the Prince."

Seeing Gaozong's father and son walking out of the apse, a group of courtiers paid their respects one after another.

"Zhong Aiqing is flat!"

Gaozong's complexion was obviously much better than the previous time, and his mid-air was much more sufficient, not only that, but the gesture of raising his hand was also a little more powerful than before.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your holy grace, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

At this sensitive time, almost all the courtiers noticed Gaozong's excitement, and they were strange, but no one dared to be presumptuous at will, and they thanked them according to the old practice, and each stood in place according to the rank, quietly waiting for Gaozong's will.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the river work matters discussed in the early days of the previous dynasty have not been completed, and to this day, all Aiqing have a lot of insight into this, and they all say that they will listen to me." Gaozong looked around at the courtiers below, didn't talk nonsense, and directly pointed out the topic to be discussed today.

"Enlighten the father, the son has this chapter here, and I implore the father and the emperor to read it."

As soon as Gaozong's words fell, the crown prince Li Hong stood up from the seat in front of the front pier, turned around, took out a book of music from the wide sleeves, held his hands above his head, bowed to Gaozong, and reported loudly.

"Well, okay, hand it over." Gaozong glanced at Li Hong approvingly, waved his hand, and the little eunuch who was waiting for him hurriedly ran down the front and handed the book in Li Hong's hand to Gaozong, but seeing that Gaozong opened the book unhurriedly, he seemed to go through it very seriously, and then stroked the long beard on his chest, waved his hand and said: "Xuan!" ”

As soon as the word "Xuan" came out, the ministers below immediately became a little commotion, just because the big guys are not fools, at this time, how can they not see that there is a greasy existence between Gaozong and the prince, and this so-called music is the will of Gaozong himself, which is related to the overall situation, and no one does not care about what is written in this excerpt.

"The son Li Hong has the book to start playing the Holy Son of Heaven: the river fortifications are involved in the transportation of water, and the Dali Sheji ...... River matters are complicated, not idle can be done, when the establishment of institutions to seek the unity of power, the river governor Yamen is imperative, now there will be a master craftsman Yang Wulian, there is ingenuity, good cardinal, long for the Ministry of Industry ministers, can be this great task, will be able to cure the chronic disease of river transport, to smell! The eunuch Gao Hesheng ignored the whispers of the courtiers, held Li Hong's recital book seriously, and procrastinated according to the script.

Yang Wulian? Who is not recommended by the prince, how can he arch this goods out, isn't this asking for trouble for himself? The matter of the river work is important, Li Xian does not dare to be a little negligent, he has always heard it very seriously, and most of the front has not found anything wrong, and he is generally walking according to the advice given by Li Xian a few days ago, but when it comes to the election of the governor of the river, Li Xian is a little scratching his head - Yang Wulian and his person Li Xian have not had much contact with him in this life, but he knows very well about it in his previous life, and he knows that this person has the ability, but he is greedy, and in his previous life, he was dismissed and exiled because he was greedy for tens of millions of money. At this time, let him be the governor of the river, although things may be done beautifully at the beginning, but in the future, there will be a big mess, such a person is obviously not a very good choice, the question is whether to speak out against it, but Li Xianxu hesitated.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is playing the right thing, so act quickly, and the old minister implores His Majesty to make a holy judgment."

This one Li Xian was still hesitating, and the other one Yan Li had already taken the lead in standing up and singing praises loudly.

"Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that the fold of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the reason of the old man to seek the country, it is advisable to move quickly, I hope Your Majesty will make a clear decision!"

As soon as Yan Liben came out, Liu Xiangdao was not far behind, and he also stood up and echoed loudly.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is playing a very ......"

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded ......"

"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal!"

……

Li Hong listened to Li Xian's advice this time, for the sake of secrecy, and did not spread the matter of the previous book, among the henchmen of the princes, only Yan Liben and Liu Xiangdao knew the details, but this did not prevent the support of Li Hong's henchmen, especially in the case of the abolition of the liquor license and car license plate proposed by Li Xian before, there was no reason for the ministers not to stand up and show their loyalty, no, not only the prince's cronies, but also a large number of neutral courtiers have also come out of the list, For a while, the hall was bustling, and the voices of seconding the proposal rang out one after another.

"Father, the sons and daughters think that the prince's brother is indeed impressive, and it is advisable to try it out, and hope that the father and the emperor will make a holy decision."

In the midst of the noise, Li Xian glanced at Li Xian with an inquiring gaze, and saw that Li Xian bowed his head quietly, so he no longer hesitated, walked to the hall, and bowed down to report a word.

Li Xian has always been not on good terms with the prince, he is about to come out, and the ministers are ready to see a good show, after all, the river work matter is Li Xian who took the lead in bringing it up, what the prince did is actually robbing the merit, it is really not authentic, Li Xian has a seizure on this occasion, which can be regarded as a forgivable thing, but the ministers never thought that Li Xian not only did not compete with the prince, but instead echoed the prince's recital, although there is still a reservation between the words, but the meaning of support is obvious, Such an unexpected thing made all the ministers a little dumbfounded, and the hall was first a strange silence, and then there was a "boom" and a commotion, and the noise of private discussions was almost as noisy as a vegetable market.

That's it, it doesn't matter, if something really happens to Yang Wulian, the unlucky one is just the prince, as for the river work, let's talk about it then! Taking advantage of the noisy of the ministers, Li Xian had repeatedly deduced the stakes in his heart several times, and it was really difficult to find a more stable way to be easier for Yang Wulian, so he had no choice but to put the matter behind his mind first, so he stood out of the queue unhurriedly and walked slowly to the palace......
