Chapter 226: Long-term Deliberation (II)
Li Xian's body was originally big, after this bloody killing on the plateau, the blood on the body was even more intense, this pulled down the face, the air around the body immediately seemed to be solidified, even if it was the scorching sun, it also gave people a sense of chilling, Rao is Li Xian is also considered to be a bold person, was rushed by this killing aura, couldn't help but shiver, looked at Li Xian in surprise, full of resentment instantly didn't know where to go, only inexplicable horror remained.
"Seventh, seventh brother, is this a long-term plan, well, there has to be a head."
As soon as the shiver hit, Li Xian had already sobered up from the inexplicable anger, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he was reluctant to bow his head to Li Xian and admit his mistake, so he said stupidly.
"Sixth brother, and listen to the words of the younger brother, now that the chaos of the court has appeared, you should take dormancy as the key, and you may be burned by acting namelessly, not only the sixth brother, but also the younger brother." Although Li Xian was annoyed by Li Xian's temperament, he didn't want to make trouble with him after all, and when he saw that Li Xian had already bowed his head, he didn't think much of himself, so he sincerely persuaded him.
"The situation is in chaos? So, where does this start? ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Li Xian was completely stunned, raised his head blankly, looked at Li Xian suspiciously, and asked suspiciously.
"Sixth brother, my father returned to Beijing this time and came to the eastern capital again after just over a month, who were the entourages when he left?"
Regarding Li Xian's sluggishness, Li Xian was really a little crying and laughing, so he had no choice but to say something vaguely.
"Ah, this, this ......"
Li Xian thought about it carefully, and then realized the true meaning of Gaozong's hurried return to Beijing and left in a hurry - the prince still got the name of the prison country, but half of the six Shangshu were taken away, not to mention, most of the main officials of the departments such as Shilang and Lang Zhongling also drove to the eastern capital, and the Jingshi is now only left with an empty shelf. It is very likely that the center of gravity of the court will be shifted eastward.
"Huh......" Li Xian is not a stupid person after all, after being surprised for a while, he has stabilized his mind, and after he has grown an atmosphere, he said with a look of surprise: "Seventh brother, did you say that my father was already dissatisfied with the arrogance of some people?" ”
"It's the queen mother."
Looking at Li Xian's face full of anticipation, Li Xian really couldn't bear to say anything, but the situation was like this, and Li Xian had no choice but to brutally break Li Xian's illusion.
"Oh?"
As soon as he heard this, the look of surprise on Li Xian's face instantly retreated, and after a light snort, he immediately frowned, contemplative.
That's it, if you don't give this guy some hope, maybe this guy will take risks indiscriminately, and the fun will be great! As soon as Li Xian saw Li Xian's frustrated look like a child who had lost his beloved toy, he couldn't help but have an urge to laugh wildly, but Li Xian was unwilling to lose Li Xian's shield prematurely, so he could only say with a solemn face: "Sixth brother, this time the prince's brother has acted too much, and the court situation has been out of balance, not only the father is dissatisfied, but also the mother's jealousy, therefore, there is another move centered on the eastern capital. If the sixth brother can concentrate on it, there will be something to wait for in the future, and if there is another storm, it will be exactly what the prince's brother wants! ”
"Well, what the seventh brother said is reasonable, but, well, it's just that he is alone now, so why talk about the future?"
After Li Xian frowned and thought about it, he felt that Li Xian's analysis was quite reasonable, but he was unwilling to be oppressed so miserably by the crown prince, so he asked a question.
"The sixth brother said this is wrong, the younger brother thinks that this is a great opportunity for the sixth brother to start preparing for the future, this matter falls on the word 'imperial examination', counting the time, tomorrow should be the period of the big competition, if the sixth brother can win the position of the main examination, there are countless disciples under the seat, why worry about no one available, moreover, according to the younger brother, the queen mother's forced relocation of the court is beyond the limit of the prince's brother's tolerance, there will be a big dispute, if the prince's brother wins, it is okay, if he ......loses, Li Xian carefully analyzed the court situation, But he stopped halfway through the conversation, and just sighed solemnly.
"Huh?"
As soon as he heard Li Xian's words so clearly, Li Xian was first happy, and then he was surprised - the joy was that the prince obviously couldn't fight the martial queen, and it was very likely that he would be deposed, so that his opportunity for Li Xian would come, and the surprise was that if he ascended the throne in the future, he would also have to face the mountain of the martial queen, and he was afraid that he would inevitably suffer the fate of the prince.
"Sixth brother rest assured, no matter when and where, the younger brother will definitely support the sixth brother, at this time, the sixth brother just went steadily and won the position of the main exam, and the rest of the things can be ignored." Li Xian saw Li Xian's concerns at a glance, and secretly sighed in his heart, but in his mouth, he swore and encouraged.
"It is really a blessing for my brother to be able to get the help of the seventh brother, alas, if the brother listened to the words of the seventh brother before, why is it like this, that's it, that's it, everything will be done according to the words of the seventh brother." As soon as he remembered that Li Xian had given him advice several times, Li Xian was deeply moved, and he did not have the slightest doubt about Li Xian's assurance, so he nodded cautiously and agreed to Li Xian's suggestion.
"Sixth brother take care, the younger brother has to rush to the Eastern Capital, so he won't stay long."
The reason why Li Xian asked Li Xian to talk halfway this time was that he was afraid that Li Xian would make a random move, but at this time, seeing that Li Xian had already untied the knot in his heart, he didn't want to be more verbose, so he said goodbye.
"Well, I don't know when the seventh brother will be able to return? As a brother, he is alone in Beijing, and he misses it very much. ”
Although Li Xian was reluctant to let Li Xian go, he had no choice but to look at Li Xian with a blank eye, and said a word melancholy.
When will I be able to get back? Li Xian himself can't answer this question, it's not that Li Xian doesn't want to return to Beijing, but that Empress Wu will not easily let Li Xian return to Beijing, what he is afraid of is that the three brothers are stirring together and twisting into a rope, especially after seeing Li Xianjun's slight ability, it is impossible to let Li Xian leave easily, at least before the fall of the prince, Li Xian doesn't want to leave, this truth Li Xian knows in his heart, but he doesn't want to say that he knows with Li Xian, facing Li Xian's expectant gaze, Li Xian had to smile bitterly and said: "Father Emperor Shengming, When there will be a decision, the sixth brother will take care, and the younger brother will go. As soon as the words fell, he didn't give Li Xian a chance to speak again, bowed and saluted, and strode towards the convoy waiting in the distance.
"Seventh brother take care, look forward to the return of my brother in Beijing for my brother!"
Li Xian didn't expect Li Xian to say that he would leave, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and when he woke up, he saw that the convoy had started slowly, hurriedly walked a few steps, and stood on his feet reservedly, waved his hand to Li Xian, who was riding a horse and standing on the side of the convoy, and said a sentence with a choked voice.
"Sixth brother, go back, the younger brother is gone." Li Xian bowed slightly on horseback, bowed his hand, and then waved his hand and ordered in a loud voice: "Go!" As soon as these words came out, the convoy immediately began to accelerate and rolled east......
"What?"
In the study of the Xiande Palace, Li Hong, the prince in a bright yellow robe, sat behind several sons, and was discussing government affairs in a low voice with Yan Liben, the secretary of the right minister and the minister, the Huangmen Shilang, and the governor Zhang Wenjun, but saw Wang Dequan, the director of the Xiande Palace, tiptoe in, and he wanted to speak and stopped, Li Hong's brows couldn't help frowning, and he said with displeasure.
"Your Royal Highness, His Royal Highness King Lu went to Lantian today, according to investigation, he had a private meeting with His Royal Highness the King of England, and they talked for a long time, and I don't know the details."
Seeing that Li Hong was displeased, Wang Dequan didn't dare to slack off, but he didn't speak immediately, but peeked at Yan and Zhang, and saw that Li Hong didn't say anything about it, and it didn't seem to be taboo for the two to be present, so he bowed down and hurried to make a report.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? As soon as he heard that the two kings met in private, Li Hong's brows immediately wrinkled a little deeper, his fingers unconsciously tapped a few times, and after thinking for a long time, he glanced at Yan Liben and said in a deep voice: "Yan Xiang, according to you, what is the seventh brother of this palace planning to do?" ”
"It's hard to say, but, according to the old minister, His Royal Highness the King of England may not be unfavorable to His Highness, but His Royal Highness King Lu, maybe there will be waves." As soon as Yan Liben heard this, he knew that the prince already had a deep sense of vigilance against Li Xian, who had made outstanding achievements in battle, and his heart couldn't help but sink, lest the prince provoke Li Xian at such a time, so he hurriedly spoke out and explained.
"Well, what does Zhang Xiang think about this?"
Li Hong did not comment on Yan Liben's answer, but looked sideways at the taciturn Zhang Wenjun, and asked thoughtfully.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Shengming, the old minister has no objections."
Zhang Wenqian is an upright person, although he is closer to the prince, but he is not a member of the prince's family, and he does not want to participate in the princes' game of winning the heir.
"Shengming? Oh, what a Shengming, the palace can't afford this Shengming, that's it, Zhang Xiang doesn't want to say, the palace is not reluctant, the sixth brother loves to make trouble, he will make trouble, I want to see how long he can make trouble, Dequan, go to the treasury to pick up some suitable things, and send them back to Luoyang, which is a gift for the wedding of the seventh brother. Li Hong obviously had a plan in his heart, and he didn't care about Zhang Wenjun's prevarication, he waved his hand indifferently and ordered Wang Dequan, with an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth......
