"Di Gong, why don't you ask if the matter is done?"

Since he came out of Yan's Mansion, Di Renjie has always kept his mouth shut, neither asking Li Xian and Yan Liben what the result of the negotiation was, nor asking for instructions on what to do next, just sitting silently beside Li Xian, his face was extremely indifferent, just like a wooden man, at the end, Li Xian was the first to lose his breath, glanced at Di Renjie curiously, and asked with a smile.

"Alas, Your Highness is going to roast Di on the fire."

Di Renjie did not answer Li Xian's question, but shook his head with a bitter face, and came up with an answer that seemed unrelated.

"Oh? Hahaha......"

Li Xian was happy when he heard it, just because Di Renjie's words came out, it meant that Di Renjie had completely understood the purpose of Li Xian taking him to the Yan Mansion, and to put it bluntly, it was very simple, this move was to announce to the people in the court that Di Renjie was the most confidant of his Li Xian, and if the big guy wanted to be loyal or show loyalty, he might as well go to Di Renjie to negotiate, so that with Di Renjie such a buffer, the courtiers would not have to worry about saying the wrong thing in front of Li Xian, or they would be worried about standing on the wrong team, You can first probe Di Renjie's mouth, and then make the final decision, as for Li Xian himself, he can also be happy and relaxed, avoiding countless troubles of vanity and wrongdoing, but Di Renjie has to be busy, isn't it?

"Di Gong's capable person works hard, you can do things, you can be trusted."

Although he knew that Di Renjie's complaint was just funny, he should be appeased, and Li Xian would never be stingy, he couldn't let the horse run, and he didn't let the horse eat grass, so he smiled and complimented Di Renjie.

"Your Highness is wise, Di is working hard."

Di Renjie is the wise man in the world, as early as when Li Xian invited him to go to the Yan Mansion together, he had already seen through Li Xian's intentions, since he didn't say anything, he was naturally mentally prepared to take on this heavy responsibility, but he didn't forget to shout bitterly in his mouth, and it was just funny.

"Hahaha......"

Li Xian was amused by Di Renjie's deliberately pretended sad appearance and laughed out loud again, so laughing that Di Renjie couldn't hold his face, and then the laughter began, and a breath of acquaintance between the monarch and the minister rippled and permeated the carriage......

On the 18th day of February in the third year of Xianheng, it was almost noon, but the sky was gloomy as dusk, the thick dark clouds were pressed very low, and the drizzle of hair never stopped, although it was not big, but it could be poured on the body, but it was sticky and uncomfortable, especially for people who were in a hurry, this kind of drizzle was really annoying, not to mention, blocking the view, and the road was also muddy and difficult to walk, no, a large group was clustered around several carriages galloping on the ancient road among the cavalry, from time to time there were curses and curses, even if it was the rumbling of horses' hooves, It can't hide such complaints one after another.

"The third child, pass the order, Luoyang is ahead, tell these bastards to be a little more restrained, and make less trouble for Lao Tzu, if anyone is bullshit, military law will be engaged!"

Maybe the complaints from behind him were too mixed, and a young man in silver soft armor and a purple cloak at the front of the queue couldn't listen to it anymore, Tie Qing's face turned back at a white-robed young general who was following behind him, and snorted impatiently.

The white-robed young general's surname is Li, a single Wen word, is the third word of Li Zhen, the king of Yue, as for the previous speech is his eldest brother Li Chong, the king of Langya, and the group is waiting here to come to the funeral for the "filial piety to the emperor" - Li Zhen, the king of Yue, is the brother of today's son, both civil and military, and Ji Wang Li Shen and called "Yue Ji Shuangwang", the most virtuous person in the clan, the current Xiangzhou Thorn History, which has four sons, the eldest son, the third son are all martial arts, quite brave, the second son Li Qian, the youngest son Li Gui are all learning literature, with political strategy, literary style is quite good, is a rare handsome generation among the mastersThis time I rushed to Luoyang to receive Gaozong's urgent edict, ordering him to take his four sons to the funeral, because he got the edict late, lest he miss the funeral, and had to travel day and night, all the way down, I don't know how many hardships.

"Okay, the eldest brother has the final say."

Li Chong is Li Zhen's only son-in-law, and is the eldest son, since birth has been named the king of Langya, in a group of brothers in the prestige is very high, is a unique character, he opened his mouth, Li Wen did not dare to slack, shouted a promise, slowed down the horse, rushed to the side of the road, shouted to the accompanying iron cavalry a few times, the cavalry who were originally nagging endlessly immediately all honestly shut up, and no one dared to make a loud noise.

"Big brother, these grandsons just owe beating, hey, it's still the eldest brother's order that works, the younger brother only shouts, and it's all honest."

Li Wen's admiration for Li Chong was obviously deep in his bones, and this suppressed everyone's complaints, and immediately rushed back to Li Chong's side, and sent him a high hat with a smile.

"Hmm."

Li Chong had long been accustomed to the admiration of his brothers, and he was not moved by Li Wen's words, but he just snorted without saltiness, his eyes always looked in the direction of Luoyang City, and there was obviously a strong fighting intent in his eyes.

"Big brother, are you still thinking about competing with the king of England? Hehe, this time when he enters Luoyang City, the eldest brother will definitely be able to make his wishes come true, and the younger brother is optimistic that the eldest brother will definitely be able to win a big victory. ”

Li Wen only glanced at Li Chong, and he already knew what he was thinking, and immediately flattered him with a smile.

"Boom, speed up!"

As soon as he heard the word "King of England", Li Chongying's face was a twitch, he glanced at Li Wen dissatisfiedly, scolded, raised his hand, and the horsewhip in his hand had already whistling and fell on the horse's buttocks......

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yue and his four sons have arrived outside the palace gate, please make it clear to Your Majesty."

In the main dormitory of the Qianyuan Palace, Gaozong hugged a thick brocade quilt, leaned on the high cushion with a lonely expression, looked at the dark sky outside the window with blank eyes, and did not move like a clay carved wood sculpture, but only a few days of effort, the original black hair faintly saw a lot of white silk, and the miserable white face was full of sadness and sorrow, such a pitiful appearance, so that Gao Hesheng, who was quietly walking into the bedroom, saw it, and his heart couldn't help but sudden, but he didn't dare to delay more, and hurried to the side of the couch. whispered.

"Starling, it's Starling who is here, here, finally here." Hearing the sound, Gao Zong withdrew his gaze from the window, glanced at Gao Hesheng, muttered a few words in his mouth, and then refreshed his spirits, Huo Ran sat up straight, waved his hand, and shouted urgently: "Hurry, hurry, all of them are invited to me in, and I am still stunned, don't go quickly!" ”

"Yes, slave and maid."

As soon as he heard Gaozong say this, Gao He Shengden was taken aback, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only respectfully agree, but before leaving, he looked at Gaozong suspiciously several times - Li Hong's funeral was carried out according to the etiquette of Emperor Daxing, and the royal family relatives from all over the country naturally had to come to mourn. There are also Ji Wang Li Shen and Zhao Wang Li Fu of the same generation as Gaozong, but they have never seen Gaozong so excited, let alone summoned, that is, there is no order, and in general, they are all let the Empress Wu come forward to deal with it, this time when King Yue arrived, Gaozong's reaction was so abnormal, freedom can not be Gao He can not win suspicion, but in front of Gaozong, Gao Hesheng did not dare to ask at will, however, after exiting the palace, Gao Hesheng immediately whispered to a small eunuch who accompanied him to go to the Ming Wuhou quickly, and he himself went to the gate of heaven unhurriedly, so as to leave enough buffer time for the Empress Wu.

The funeral of Emperor Daxing has never been a simple matter, it is never an exaggeration to say that it is a thousand things, even if Li Hong is just a nickname of the Son of Heaven, but the procedures that should be done are not saved at all, even with the assistance of the foreign ministers, but as the actual owner of the palace, the Empress Wu is still busy with her feet, one moment is to meet the royal family relatives who rushed to each other, and the next time is to listen to the report of the funeral officials, and then you have to be busy accepting the court meeting of the assassins who rushed to Luoyang from all over the country, in addition, there are countless copies to be reviewedRao is the Empress Wu is energetic, so so the axis turned down, it is already tired of a circle, but the Empress Wu does not think it is bitter, the spirit is shining, there is no trace of exhaustion, this is not, the day is close to noon, just after receiving the foreign minister, the Empress Wu immediately buried his head in the fold pile, the quick pen to review the folds that can never be finished, the expression is extremely focused, even if a small eunuch hurriedly ran into the imperial study The sound can not make the Empress Wu raise her head.

"Huh?"

Although the head of the Empress Wu was not raised, and the pen in his hand did not stop, but the unpleasant hum came out of his nostrils, and only one sound made the panicked little eunuch weak, and he fell to the ground on his head, his body trembled, and he stammered and reported: "Qi, Qi Niangniang, His Royal Highness the King of Yue and Yue has arrived, and he has ...... outside the palace gate."

"Then let's go."

Empress Wu still didn't raise her head, these days, Empress Wu has long been accustomed to seeing these princes who came to mourn, and she didn't think that King Yue could have anything special, and she didn't wait for the little eunuch to finish speaking, so she gave an order.

"Yu, Yu Niangniang, Your Majesty, ah, Your Majesty has declared."

As soon as he heard Empress Wu's words, the little eunuch became even more panicked, and his mouth trembled for a while, and then he held back a sentence that had no beginning or end.

"Huh?"

As soon as Empress Wu heard this, the pen in his hand was suddenly stunned, Huo Ran raised his head, his eyes were sharp like a knife and looked at the trembling little eunuch, and a huge aura of slaughter suddenly rose......
