"I recommend the prince to investigate this case for two purposes, one is that although this matter is well arranged, it is not negligent, and if it is handed over to other officials to investigate, the truth will definitely be found. At that time, it will be an earth-shattering chaos. The prince killed Xiangguo, this matter cannot be calmed down no matter what, and Li Heng will lose the position of prince because of this. However, the position of the crown prince is what Li Heng wants to protect with all his might, and once the matter is found out, the contradiction will inevitably be stimulated, and it will be out of control. It is even very likely to cause a rebellion in the palace. Therefore, I recommend the prince to investigate, of course the prince will not find out himself, and he can also take the opportunity to make up for the omissions, and even find a scapegoat to calm things down. Wang Yuan smiled.

"Erlang seems to have defended the prince in this matter." Li Xin'er said in a low voice.

Wang Yuan nodded and said: "That's natural, although I don't have a good impression of the prince, but the prince is down, once he is liquidated, Luo Yimen is bound to be exposed, so what's in it for me?" I'm doing this to protect the prince, but also to protect ourselves. ”

Li Xin'er agreed, and said in a low voice: "But I don't know if the prince can understand your kindness." ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "He doesn't understand, Li Fuguo understands, I don't expect him to have a good impression of me." In fact, if we weren't bound by the identity of Luo Yimen, I don't care if he is dead or alive? ”

Li Xin'er frowned and said, "Yes, we don't know when our identity will be cleared." It's like a dirty thing stuck to the body, you can't wash it off, you can't throw it away, you can't throw it away, you are restricted by it every day, and you are restricted by it. I'm worried that one day the paper won't be able to hold the fire, and then what will I do. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "This dirty thing protected us at the beginning, but time has passed, and now it has become a stumbling block." There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and we don't have to worry about these things to eat and sleep, I believe there will be a solution. The identities of you and me are considered high in Luoyimen, and there are only a few people who know our identities, so there is no need to worry too much. ”

Li Xin'er nodded and said, "I'm not worried about myself, I'm only worried about Erlang." Work hard, don't be ruined. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "When the strength is enough, no one can destroy me." I'm afraid that I'm not strong enough, so I can only be at the mercy of others. Leaving this matter aside, don't you want to know another purpose of my recommendation for the prince to investigate this case? ”

Li Xin'er said: "Of course I want to hear it, why did the topic come to that matter, it's all my fault, it's me who is far away." What is Jiro's other intention? ”

Wang Yuan said with a smile: "I just said, I suspect that Your Majesty knows it, after all, it was the crown prince who suggested that he send the imperial doctor to visit Li Linfu." After what happened, I don't believe that His Majesty would not have any doubts in his heart. In order to verify His Majesty's attitude, I deliberately recommended the Crown Prince to investigate this matter, just to see what His Majesty thinks in his heart. ”

"So, what do you see?" Li Xin'er couldn't keep up with Wang Yuan's train of thought, she couldn't think of what she would find out from it, she could still follow the analysis and analysis before, but now she can only become an echo worm.

"I saw a lot of things. His Majesty was furious on the spot and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. If His Majesty has any doubts about the crown prince in his heart, he really wants to investigate the matter thoroughly, that is, he must give up the prince, find out about the matter, and then depose the prince. However, His Majesty may also be just for show, and he has to order a strict investigation, but how to investigate, and who will investigate, this is a very learned question. So I gave him this step to test Your Majesty, and if Your Majesty really wanted to find out, he would not care whether the matter was related to the Prince, and he would choose someone more capable. The Criminal Department, Yushitai, and Dali Temple, their case-handling ability is many times stronger than that of the prince, and the prince's ability is not as good as these people, so His Majesty has no reason to approve my recommendation. And since His Majesty agreed, he walked down the steps I gave, which can only mean one thing, that is, he is also worried that this matter is really the prince's doing, and he wants to protect the prince, make this matter a small one, and prevent this matter from pulling the prince out. Wang Yuan smiled.

Li Xin'er was stunned for a long time and sighed: "My God, there are so many twists and turns here, if you don't say it, I really don't have a clue." ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "Actually, it is not difficult to sort out, as long as you stand in the other party's position and think about the problem, you will have a new angle and insight, and at the same time, you will be able to figure out the other party's thoughts." I don't really want to be so tired, but I can't help but think about it, I need to know everyone's attitude towards this matter in order to be invincible. I didn't want to be this kind of thoughtful person, but I couldn't help myself and had to think about it. ”

Li Xin'er nodded and said, "I understand, none of the people in the court are full of fancy intestines, all of them are human spirits." If you weren't such a person, I'm afraid it would be difficult for you to gain a foothold in the DPRK. ”

Wang Yuan hugged Li Xin'er's soft waist and whispered, "Thank you for your understanding." The world is difficult, you and I both know it, and there is no need to say more. ”

Li Xin'er snuggled in Wang Yuan's arms, kissed him lightly on the cheek to express comfort, the husband and wife warmed up for a moment, Li Xin'er suddenly said: "By the way, why did you say just now that even if you have the opportunity to kill Li Linfu, you won't do it." Why is that? ”

Wang Yuan said: "You still asked, it's not that I don't want to avenge you." I mean, Li Linfu should be damned, but not now. The prince rashly killed Li Linfu this time, of course, because he was forced by Li Linfu to have no way out. But from the perspective of the big picture, Li Linfu's death will be a disaster. ”

Li Xin'er was puzzled: "How can you see it? ”

Wang Yuan said: "Li Linfu still has the ability to do so, he has been in charge of the dynasty for more than ten years, although he has been scolded and criticized, and he has also harmed many people viciously, but you have to admit that the more than ten years he has been in charge of the government is the most stable and prosperous period in my Tang Dynasty." What does this mean? This shows that Li Linfu can still take into account the overall situation, stabilize the dynasty, and has not done anything bad that really hurts the Tang Dynasty. ”

Although Li Xin'er was reluctant to agree, she also had to admit that what Wang Yuan said was still reasonable. If Li Linfu is really a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people, the current Tang Dynasty should not be tossed by him.

And Li Linfu can also deter some people, such as Li Heng, such as Zuo Xiang. You just have to think about what kind of situation it would be like if Li Heng was not suppressed, and you will know how great Li Linfu's deterrence is. Needless to say, Yang Zuoxiang has a huge power and is deeply favored by His Majesty. But when Yang Guozhong saw Li Linfu, he still respectfully didn't dare to mess around. Yang Guozhong wanted to do many things, but he was afraid of Li Linfu's presence, and he also restrained a lot. ”

"That's a thing. When the court is highly respected, the only one who can deter the ministers is Li Linfu. Li Xin'er said.

Wang Yuan said solemnly: "Actually, this is not the most important thing, do you know who is most afraid of Li Linfu among the important ministers of the court?" ”

Li Xin'er shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”

Wang Yuan said: "The person who is most afraid of him is An Lushan. Li Linfu's death, An Lushan is afraid that he will die of joy. Don't look at his indignant appearance in the palace tonight, shouting that the murderer will be strictly investigated, but in fact, the joy in his eyes cannot be concealed. If Li Heng and Yang Guozhong gain power, they will just make some ridiculous things. If it is harmful, it is just a hole in the causeway, and it will not be possible to destroy the tall embankment of Datang, or it will take a long time to toss. But An Lushan is different, a person with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands has no one to suppress, what will be the situation? The previous time An Lushan refused to send troops to aid Shuofang, and Li Linfu sent troops obediently to An Lushan as soon as he sent a letter, which is proof. An Lushan has ambitions, Li Linfu must know this, and use this to restrain An Lushan. Therefore, An Lushan was submissive to Li Linfu, because he was afraid that Li Linfu would expose his thoughts in front of Xuanzong. Now that Li Linfu is dead, An Lushan is proud and can finally do whatever he wants. Datang's good days are not long. ”

Li Xin'er looked at Wang Yuan speechless in horror, and said in a low voice after a while: "What you have been saying all along, is An Lushan's rebellion really going to happen?" ”

Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "Did I tell you that An Lushan was going to rebel?" Well, I may have said something like that. In the past, I may have just said it, but now I am afraid that this matter is irreparable. I also wish I was wrong, I wish I was wrong, I would rather I was wrong. ”

Li Xin'er was stunned for a long time and said, "In this way, the sky is about to fall." An Lushan has so many soldiers and horses in his hands, if he rebels, what should he do? ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "What should I do?" Cold! You don't have to worry about it. The sky is going to fall, and someone will hold it up. Don't think about it, it's useless for you to worry about these things. It's almost dawn, and I'm going to sleep for a while. Li Linfu is dead, and tomorrow will be an extremely difficult day. Tomorrow, I will go to Li Linfu's house to offer condolences. Then we left Beijing and returned to Jiannan. The capital is a place of wrong, so let's not stay as well. ”

Li Xin'er said softly: "Listen to Erlang, I will make a basin of hot water for Erlang to scald his feet, so that he can sleep well." Think about tomorrow's things tomorrow, don't be sad and tired. It doesn't matter if the sky falls, you're the sky at home, you can't fall down. ”
