Chapter 290: Crown Prince Wu Chenghei
Li Xingzhou was covered in a cold sweat.
Wu Zetian made Wu Chenghei the crown prince.
And he.
It is the main opponent of Wu Chenghe.
Listen to Princess Taiping.
Li Xingzhou still returned to the couch and asked Taiping very solemnly.
"Do you notice anything unusual on Wu Chenghe's side?"
Taiping shook his head.
"Since the beginning of this Wu-Li party dispute, it has been until now."
"He's in full view of everyone, and he's been shuttling through various palaces like me these days, and he really hasn't noticed anything."
"He's already the heir, what's not to be satisfied with?"
Hearing this, Li Xingzhou frowned, no!
Although Wu Chenghei is mediocre, as long as he does not involve the struggle for the heir, there is still some tolerance to compare.
Wu Chenghei is the most narrow-minded, and his nature of retribution is clearly recorded in the history books.
Although the trajectory of history has changed now, the open-mindedness and character of Wu Chengsi cannot change immediately.
All his current behavior is not the normal reaction he should have, no matter how you look at it, there is some demonic smell in it.
And Li Xingzhou also knows a sentence, things must be strange when things are abnormal.
On the contrary, Wu Chenghe's demonic behavior at this time is an omen of his abnormality.
But where Wu Chengsi is abnormal, but because there is no news clue, it is not known.
After pondering for a while and unable to think of anything.
Li Xingzhou put it aside first.
......
Li Xing slapped him on Monday.
Originally, I wanted to shoot Taiping's waist.
Unexpectedly, Taiping's body moved.
So the slap went in the wrong direction.
landed on the plump under the underwear.
The stretch is so good!
Li Xingzhou just had such a chaotic thought in his mind.
Taiping had already turned his head and glared at him.
It's complicated at first glance.
There are doubts, there are angers, there are spring loves, and there are charming......
It's a thousand styles. All kinds of tastes, people can't taste clearly.
"What are you looking at, don't you go home so late?"
"Get up quickly"
Li Xing said righteously as he quietly got up and left the bed.
But this little bit of caution failed to hide the peace.
As soon as he stood up, he saw Taiping kicking him.
This kick in the leg is real.
Li Xingzhou immediately sat on the ground.
After kicking him to the ground. Tai Ping calmly got up and put on his dress.
"You birdman, take advantage of it and pretend to be a humble gentleman, don't think about it"
She glanced at Li Xingzhou contemptuously.
"Smack"
shook the hem of the dress embroidered with gold thread, and walked away proudly.
Li Xingzhou lamented in his mouth.
"Wronged. It was a real surprise."
......
Princess Taiping's face showed a melancholy look.
In Li Xingzhou's eyes, the princess was always so confident and calm, majestic and had the style of everyone in the past.
It's rare to see her look like this now.
The floor of the palace was spotless, and she paced slowly among the scarlet pillars.
Just like Chang'e wandering in the Moon Palace, it seems to have endless feelings.
"Princess ......"
Li Xingzhou wanted to speak again and again, and wanted to ask her if she was not determined enough.
Princess Taiping heard Li Xingzhou call her.
He stopped and looked at him in a daze.
Her eyes looked like there was pain in someone's body somewhere.
I could only hear her sigh faintly.
"I don't know if I've become suspicious, who can be relied on now?"
Li Xing was suddenly stunned when he heard this, and he hurriedly bowed and said.
"The princess is doing the right thing, this matter must be kept secret first."
"In case Wu Chengsi finds out, he is in a hurry to make a desperate bet, we can't ...... him faster."
Taiping smiled sadly.
"It's not bad."
Hearing this, Li Xingzhou only felt a warm current flowing through his heart, and said movingly.
"I will always be with the princess."
Princess Taiping said.
"If one day we had a big conflict, you would say the same?"
Li Xingzhou said categorically.
"I've said before that if a princess is dissatisfied, she only needs one sentence."
"I immediately apologized to myself, without the slightest hesitation!"
Taiping hurriedly held his hand, but said in a reproachful tone.
"At the moment of big events, don't say those unlucky words."
But she said it herself.
"In case of unfavorability, the two of us are together, and we are not alone on the Huangquan Road."
"Well, all of a sudden, it occurred to me that maybe I was in someone else's heart."
"It's also the kind of vicious woman who is cold-blooded and ruthless and doesn't care about the overall situation......"
Li Xingzhou felt that her mood was a little low.
Her heart is not hard enough, not hard enough.
So it will never be comparable to Wu Zetian.
Now we must let her regain her confidence and decisiveness.
Otherwise, it's really over!
Li Xingzhou said busily.
"No matter what others think, you will always be the best person I have!"
"You didn't do anything wrong, Chen stood firmly by your side, let it go!"
Taiping was happy when he heard this, and showed a smile.
"In the end, it's still Brother Yu'er, no matter how those people usually follow you, they are also in Cao Ying's heart in Han."
Li Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and groaned.
"We have to hurry, the first step is to identify the people involved in the plan, the fewer the better."
"Except for those who must be used, everything else must be kept secret."
Taiping thought for a moment.
"This kind of thing must be well thought out, and if there is a mistake in the plan, it will be difficult to remedy it when the time comes."
Li Xingzhou raised his head and said.
"Princess, just leave the initial planning plan to me."
"The most important thing now is not completeness, but the speed of soldiers!"
At this time, Taiping suddenly raised his head and looked at him with encouraging eyes.
"I believe in you."
"If I don't even believe you, who else can I trust?"
......
Speaking of this, Li Xingzhou looked at Taiping and shook his head.
"It would be nice if you could be the emperor, hey, it's a pity......"
Hearing this, Taiping's face seemed to be smiling, and his expression was very strange.
"Do you really think so? And what is the pity? β
"King Xiang's courage has been frightened by the Emperor Zetian, it is reported that every time he hears that there is a messenger from the imperial court, he thinks that the Emperor Zetian is going to give him death, and then he burst into tears, almost self-defeating, all relying on the comfort of Princess Wei to barely survive, a person is frightened to such an extent, how can he still reign in the world?"
"As for Wu Chenghe, he has been a prime minister for many years, but over the years, he has not been able to make any political achievements."
"There are often people in the imperial city who talk about 'respecting the position for no merit, and being rich but not laboring'."
"In this way, even if you ascend the throne, it will be difficult to convert your subjects to their hearts"
Li Xingzhou shook the teacup in his hand.
"As far as I can see, Princess, your heart and ability are much stronger than these two."
"She is also the daughter of Li Tang and the wife of the Wu family, so she is naturally qualified to ask about the importance of the championship."
"But it's a pity that Emperor Zetian has no intention of letting you participate in politics at all, and in the current situation."
"Without the strong support of Emperor Zetian, it would have been impossible to ascend to the throne."
"It's a pity that you've been in business for too short a time and your foundation is too shallow."
"I don't have enough strength to say anything, it's in vain."
Li Xingzhou's words can be regarded as completely piercing the deepest thoughts that Taiping has been shrouded in clouds and mountains.
This also indirectly pushed the relationship between the two to a new level.
I listened too calmly, and my face was completely cold when I finished listening.
There is no longer the glamorous charm that can be concealed in the past.
"Oh, are you provoking me? Or are you persuading me to retreat? β
Li Xingzhou put down the tea cup in his hand, shook his head and smiled.
"Be smart."
Taiping Leng snorted.
looked at Li Xingzhou with disdain.
How could Erwu converge again this time?
Slowly paced around the room for a long time.
Li Xingzhou suddenly turned around and stared at Taiping's eyes.
"Could it be...... Wu Chenghei, he still has a backhand?! β
Taiping smiled when he heard this, just like the national flower peony blooming, glamorous and unparalleled.
From the real idea of the confluence of Wu Chengsi and Wu Chengsi, with the prelude to the decisive battle between the Li Party and the Wu Party.
One mystery after another came suddenly, making Li Xingzhou feel as if he had walked into a cloud of fog.
....
When Taiping opened his eyes again, the first thing that caught his eye was another pair of eyes.
A pair of unusually clear eyes, no longer able to see the slightest decadence.
Then she saw the faint smile that was unusually familiar.
and an intonation that is slowly getting used to.
"It's over this time, I've slept all over, and we're really husband and wife."
Inexplicably, Taiping felt a long-lost peace.
At this time, she suddenly realized that she had slept so soundly just now.
For the first time in years, I didn't have a dream, let alone a nightmare.
This long-lost tranquility and dreamless fact made her heart like a landslide and tsunami.
But there was no expression on his face.
"If you want to sleep, this palace sleeps with you, what are you worried about?"
"Get up, I'm going to break your arm"
Taiping found out that her head was actually pillowed on Li Xingzhou's arm, and she didn't know how long she had been pillowing.
I don't know how long Li Xingzhou woke up, but he obviously didn't want to disturb her sleep, so he kept it still.
Li Xingzhou's immobility made Taiping's heart move fiercely.
But there was still no indication on his face, and he turned over and sat up.
"Tell me, what's going on today?"
......
Li Xingzhou looked back left and right, and the house was very quiet with the two of them.
I'm afraid she's the same as Li Xingzhou, and she's worried in her heart.
Indeed, the specificity of the coup d'Γ©tat really comes to mind.
Only then will you find that the powerful forces are all floating clouds, and it is still difficult to do things.
Li Xingzhou looked at Taiping.
Suddenly, I felt that her dress was more temperamental now.
Perhaps his aesthetics are more inclined to the relationship between restrained beauty, and he lacks approval for the flamboyant beauty of the big red and purple.
Princess Taiping's figure is particularly plump.
It is suitable for the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty, and the facial contours are also generous and full.
There is no little childishness, which makes her very imposing on weekdays, and it has something to do with her appearance.
Today, her makeup and expression are a little different from usual, she is plainly dressed, and her expression is a little gloomy......
But in Li Xingzhou's mind, the image of Chang'e seems to always wear white clothes.
Today, the princess is wearing a plain white silk dress.
He always thinks of Chang'e in the Moon Palace......
At this time, Princess Taiping asked.
"Have you figured out a way, steps?"
Li Xingzhou hurriedly clasped his fists as a salute.
"Back to the princess, I've already thought about it. I've thought about it many times, and I feel that I can't use the Yulin Army for the first step of the killing......"
Princess Taiping nodded thoughtfully, she should have been thinking about the coup d'Γ©tat during this time.
Li Xingzhou continued.
"If you start with the Yulin Army, there are two difficulties that there is really no way to solve."
"First, it was premeditated, we can only let the two generals know in advance, if the news spreads in the Yulin Army, there are many people in the forbidden army, and the ingredients are complicated, I am afraid that the secret will be leaked."
"The second is speed, the temporary mobilization of the army, from mobilization to sortie, it takes too long to be taken by surprise."
"Chaoyangmen's ten thousand horsemen are still in the hands of Wu Chenghe."
"If we can't surprise and deliver a fatal blow, it will be difficult to deal with later."
He hesitated for a long time and said in a deep voice.
"My idea is to use Zuo Yiwei!"
Taiping was puzzled.
"Zuo Yiwei?"
"The Forbidden Army has this force...... Oh, you mean the army you fought against Tibet? β
Li Xingzhou's eyes showed a hint of excitement.
"Exactly! Zuo Yiwei is all from Longxi, and the soldiers have no background, so it is impossible for the news to reach it within a few days. β
"Several generals are also all my people, and they can be trusted."
"In addition, they are all carefully selected brave men, and their combat effectiveness is not weak."
"So I want to come and go, only this group of people is the most suitable!"
"Moreover, the number of people should not be too much, three hundred people are enough"
Taiping groaned.
"But what can you do with only 300 people? You start by talking about your intentions. β
Li Xingzhou said.
"Wu Chengsi goes to Taiji Palace every day under the escort of his own soldiers to work."
"I paid close attention to it, and his daily route and time were almost fixed, and there were only more than 300 cavalry around him."
"The road to the dynasty is our opportunity."
"I will first secretly dispatch Zuo Yiwei to infiltrate Luoyang, and then immediately deploy an attack to directly annihilate Wu Chengsi and others and carry out a beheading operation."
"Kill Wu Chenghei first to start the game, and then kill Wu Youning, the king of Jianchang, and Wu Youxu, the king of Anping......"
"In this way, the ten thousand horses are already leaderless, and the princess will order the Yulin Army to pass through the Taiji Palace and force under the Chaoyang Gate."
"In the name of 'Wu Chenghei forced the palace by force, illegally seized the throne, rebelled, and the accomplices exterminated the clan', dismantled ten thousand horses."
"Sounds good at first ......"
Taiping frowned and groaned.
"It's just that Zuo Yiwei is still far away in Longxi.
"From secretly transferring to Luoyang to beheading Wu Chenghe, such a tedious process.
"If anything goes wrong in between, you lose everything!"
Li Xingzhou said.
"There's no way, I've thought about all the armor soldiers in Luoyang, and none of them can be trusted."
"There are mostly guards in the princess's mansion, I'm afraid it's a bit mysterious to transfer them to do this kind of thing, and others don't have that strength."
"I will ask Da Xiong to bring some people from Longxi, and there are also some Zuo Yiwei outside the city."
"If something really happens, that's enough!"
As Li Xingzhou said, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, whether it is the Marquis of Shan, the Prime Minister, or the royal family and nobles.
Don't dare to raise too many armed people in Luoyang City, otherwise it will be a rebellion.
Secretly hiding more than ten pairs of armor at home is enough for the crime of rebellion, let alone hundreds and thousands of armor soldiers, unless it is a national army such as the forbidden army and the government soldiers.
Only Wu Chengsi and Taiping Gong are mainly stronger, and the armed forces in the palace are enough.
However, these people are mainly composed of the children of the official eunuchs, and the composition is complex, and it is not very reliable to do such things as conspiracy and rebellion.
Princess Taiping said worriedly.
"Your method is really not good, there are too many loopholes in the middle."
"The biggest loophole is how to deploy in Luoyang without knowing it?"
"There are still 300 men who have no advantage over 300 heavy cavalry."
"You don't have armor and long weapons yet, can you win?"
"Even if you win, what if Wu Chengsi runs away and goes directly to Chaoyangmen?"
Li Xingzhou sighed.
"Is there any other way?"
β¦β¦
"Princess, which do you think is better? Or is there another way? β
Princess Taiping's face was pale, and she paced from side to side.
She muttered with a dejected look.
"Is it really only the fish that dies?"
Li Xingzhou was in a hurry, hurriedly grabbed her shoulders, stared at her eyes and said.
"Princess, since you have made up your mind, you must not hesitate to retreat, otherwise you don't have to fight, we have already lost!"
"You're telling everyone to die!"
Taiping's emotions are a little out of control, and at this moment, Li Xingzhou is the first time to see her expose her weak side.
Yes.
Fear and withdrawal.
It is the best sign of weakness.
