Chapter 791: The Trend of the Times (I)

At four o'clock, the wind and snow are getting bigger and bigger, the north wind is howling wildly, like a ghost crying wolf, goose feather-like snow flakes are wildly beating on the tiles and window lattices, making a tight muffled sound, the weather is cold and panicked, even though the study has been set up with two large copper basins burning charcoal, but it still has no great effect, Di Renjie is better, after all, he is upright and prime, full of blood, but the poor older Zhang Cambodia has suffered a big sin, a face full of ravines is frozen and iron-blue, Rao is so, he refuses to go to the copper basin to stay, Impatiently pacing back and forth in the study, his eyes glancing at the screen from time to time, looking uneasy.

"Brother General Meng, sit down and rest, Your Highness will be fine."

Seeing that Zhang Cambodia had been frozen a lot, Di Renjie was afraid that he would suffer from the cold, so he said a word of relief.

"Hmm."

Zhang Cambodia has always been by Li Xian's side, after countless battles in Hexi, how could he not know that Li Xian's martial arts are high, and there are few people in the world who can match him, it stands to reason that even if Lishui Xuan is the tiger's den in Longtan, he will definitely trap Li Xian, but the reason is reasonable, as a minister, how can he not worry about the safety of the lord, because of this, Zhang Cambodia has nothing to say except for a muffled snort.

"Yo, Your Highness is back!"

Di Renjie shook his head with a smile, just thinking about a few more words of persuasion, but when he saw Li Xian, who was wearing a white cloak, had appeared in the room silently, he hurriedly stood up and greeted excitedly.

"Your Highness, you ......"

Being shouted by Di Renjie like this, Zhang Khan Zhi Huo Ran turned back, and when he saw that Li Xian had returned safely, the tense heartstrings were suddenly loosened, but when he saw Li Xian's face again, it didn't seem right, and he couldn't help but be shocked again.

"Hmm."

Li Xian's mood was obviously quite bad, so he didn't say much, just said lightly, walked straight behind the head, shook the cloak on his shoulders, and sat down with a calm face.

"Your Highness, haven't you found out the news?"

Seeing Li Xian's appearance, Di and Zhang couldn't help but be stunned, and after glancing at each other, Zhang Cambodia took the lead in asking a question.

"My father is dying, this palace, hey......"

Li Xian was silent for a long time before he raised his head and sighed with moist eyes.

"Huh?"

"Oh?"

……

Although it had been expected, when Li Xian personally confirmed the death of Gaozong, the two strategists still gasped involuntarily, and then looked at Li Xian's face full of grief, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

"Your Highness, there are priorities, and the top priority is to make sure that the action is stopped, well, please forgive the old minister for talking too much, I don't know how His Highness learned the details, and please make it clear."

The matter has reached the most critical time, even if it will make Li Xian unhappy, Zhang Cambodia can't take care of it much, and after being silent for a while, he immediately asked about what happened.

"That the two gentlemen may know that this is the case......"

Li Xian is not a sentimental person in the end, and he can distinguish the priorities of things, so he did not hide the experience of visiting Lishui Xuan at night and described it in detail.

"I see, well, I don't know how His Highness ended up dealing with the pair of dogs and men? Is it possible to guarantee that the thieves will be hidden? ”

Although Li Xian's tone was slow, Zhang and Di were terrified when they heard it, especially when they learned that the Empress Wu had arranged an ambush in the main dormitory, and even raised their hearts to their throats, but they were frightened, and Zhang Cambodia was not ambiguous at all when they learned that the details should be asked clearly.

"The palace buried the bodies of those two people under the tiles of the top of the palace, and now the snow is falling, and the snow on the top of the palace is deep, and there will be no change in a few days, as for how long it can be hidden, it is difficult to say."

Li Xian originally just wanted to visit Lishui Xuan privately, and did not expect to kill people, before leaving, he wanted to take the bodies of the two together, but in the face of the strict defense of the peripheral Yulin Army, Li Xian felt that he did not have much certainty, so he made a stop, but carefully buried the bodies of the two under the snow in the low-lying place on the top of the palace, and really didn't dare to guarantee how long he could hide from the old thieves in Qixiaguan.

"In this case, everything must be done urgently, Tangzhou can be left alone for the time being, however, the soldiers of Hexi and Youzhou must move first, I am afraid that there will be changes in the future, and I ask His Highness to make a decision as soon as possible!"

Zhang Khan was very resolute, and when he heard Li Xian's words, he immediately admonished without hesitation.

"Well, what does Di Gong think?"

Raising troops is not a child's play, a move, it is the end of your death, a little careless, there is a possibility of chaos in the world, no matter how confident Li Xian is, but he also does not dare to take it lightly, after a noncommittal word, he immediately looked sideways at Di Renjie, who had always been silent, and asked quietly.

"This trend is also the way to go!"

Di Renjie usually acts tactfully, but when it comes to the critical moment of right and wrong, he is not ambiguous at all, bows down, and gives an impassioned affirmative answer.

"Alright, let's get started!"

Li Xian didn't intend to sit still, but after hearing the agreement of the two strategists, he would not hesitate at all......

On the first day of the first month of the second year of Yonglong, the heavy snow that raged for more than ten days finally stopped a little, although the sky was still overcast, and some salt still drifted down from time to time, but the whistling north wind was resting, it was a good day to enjoy the snow, Li Jingye, the governor of Longguan, got up early in the morning, casually used a few mouthfuls of gruel, and then asked people to move a rocking chair, and half-lay in the warm pavilion to enjoy the snow scene in the back garden, there was really some elegance and boundless meaning, of course, really speaking of the two sons of elegance, Li Jingye is actually only half-baked at the level, and it is estimated that he can make do with two sentences, and if he is asked to write poetry, that is to catch the blind, the reason why he is pretending to be elegant here is actually for one thing - waiting for someone to come to the door to send money!

As a hereditary British duke, Li Jingye is certainly not a poor man, but he is not rich and noble, not for anything else, just because his ancestor general Li Ji has always been very strict, and he has been fighting in the north and south for many years, and he has received a lot of rewards and spoils, but basically they are distributed to his troops, and there are very few times when they fall into private pockets, so that after Li Ji's death, the huge British mansion is actually only an empty shell, and there is not much floating wealth at all, which can make Li Jingye, who likes to enjoy, feel uncomfortable. In previous years, when he was in the court, there were more powerful people than him Li Jingye, who were like rice, he had no courage and could not endure the indiscriminate scraping, and he could still abide by the law, but since three years ago, he released the governor of Longzhou, Li Jingye let go of his hands and feet, and he really had to pluck the roots of the geese, as if this New Year, it is the best time to receive gifts, Li Jingye naturally does not want to miss it, but he doesn't want to wait too long with his subordinates, and he doesn't want to be too formal, so as not to be gossiped, obviously, A place for leisure such as a warm pavilion is indeed a place to receive gifts, which is indeed very suitable.

Li Jingye's idea is not bad, but it is a pity that there seems to be a suspicion of falling into the empty place, no, they have been in the warm pavilion for nearly an hour and a half of the snow, the people who came to give gifts were stunned not to see half of it, and there was no such endless stream of gift-givers in previous years, which made Li Jingye annoyed, but also couldn't help but wonder in his chest, and was thinking about sending some people to find out what was going on, and saw the housekeeper in the house hurriedly rushing in from outside.

"What's the matter, huh?"

Li Jingye has always been well-behaved, and when he saw that the housekeeper was so flustered, he was very happy in his heart, and he didn't wait for the housekeeper to speak, he rolled his eyes and snorted with displeasure.

"Grandpa, the deputy governor of the king sent a lieutenant to come, saying that there was a messenger from the imperial court to pass the decree, and the people had arrived in the camp, just waiting for you to preside over the overall situation, grandpa."

The old housekeeper has been following Li Jingye for a long time, but he only knows Li Jingye's temperament, this is not right, he didn't dare to slack off, he didn't care about wiping the sweat on his face, and hurriedly rushed to the front, and said in a hurried tone.

"Preaching? What is the purpose of preaching at such a time? Make a big name, hum, change clothes! ”

Longguan is an important town, as the governor of the capital, Li Jingye has never received the holy decree in the past, but he has never received the holy decree on the first day of the first month, this listening to the Qin sent to the barracks, or directly to the military camp, he can't help but be quite puzzled, but the doubts are doubts, the matter of resisting the decree, he still doesn't have the courage to do it, just scolded a few times, then stood up in a daze, and walked quickly to the backyard......

"The last general will see the Grand Governor!"

Longzhou is an important military town, the military camp will naturally not be too far away from the metropolitan governor's mansion, in fact, it is just across the street, Li Jingye, who hurriedly changed his armor, rode his horse just a hurry, and he had already arrived at the gate of the military camp, and without waiting for his horse to stop, Wang Fangyi, the deputy governor who had been waiting at the gate of the camp, had already led several guards to stride forward and respectfully saluted.

"Excuse me, Zhong Xiang (Wang Fangyi's character), why are you here alone, where is Qin Cha?"

Li Jingye's ability to lead the troops is a little worse than his ancestors, but the shelf is many times larger than his ancestors, and when he saw that only Wang Fangyi was greeted by the camp, he immediately felt a little unhappy in his heart, but it was not good to attack Wang Fangyi, so he could only frown unhappily, and asked impatiently while turning over and dismounting.

"The Metropolitan Governor Mingjian, the Qin Messenger has arrived in the camp, and all the generals dare not leave without permission, and the last general will be ordered by the Qin Mission, and he will come to the camp to wait for the Metropolitan Governor."

Wang Fangyi is also the rank of general, although he is a deputy, but his position is not under Li Jingye, but he has always been cautious and never cares about Li Jingye's arrogance, and this is also the case at this time, even if Li Jingye's tone is really suspicious of asking his subordinates, but Wang Fangyi does not have a trace of discoloration, but his face is calm and explained.

"Well, let's go check it out."

Li Jingye had long been accustomed to Wang Fangyi's humility, and he had no doubts about what he said, so he shook his hand, threw the reins of the horse to the guards who followed, gave a casual order, and walked into the camp with his head held high......
