The members of the Abdul royal family did not get closer and closer because of the date of departure, so they were distracted, but they did not know when they would be able to come to Datang again, and fell into a more frenzied shopping around.

It is Mahdi and other princes of the Western Regions who have also been fascinated by the festive atmosphere of the New Year with the unique Tang Dynasty style in recent times, and on the day King Ming and others came, they went to the street early in the morning.

Before they returned, Li Zhi and his wives had been surrounded by the people in the Ming Palace's ancestors, Grandma Li, and told all kinds of stories.

Despite their noble births, few of them had ever traveled so much given the traffic conditions of the time.

At that time, it was a semi-primitive social environment where entertainment was scarce, and it was undoubtedly very enviable to have the opportunity to travel everywhere.

King Ming, King Lao Ming, and King of Changning County were with King Nanjiang, accompanied by Mi Rui and other officials, but they were not ignored.

When people from the major families also arrived one after another, Mahdi and other guests from the Western Regions also returned, and the scene was chaotic, but fortunately, the officials of all sizes in Guangzhou City were not eating dry meals, and they were soon organized in an orderly manner.

Fu Chen and Li Qi also returned together, and these people merged with Li Yu and Li Cheng brothers, and they knew each other originally.

Only the second Li Ling found this opportunity and called Li Zhi aside.

"There is an edict from the saint that you will hand over what you need to do to me before you leave Datang, so that you can be treated in a targeted manner when you are not there, so as to exclude you. Of course, the last sentence was added by me personally! ”

Li Ling was straightforward and said her intentions.

"Second brother, the emperor is really like a god, how does his old man know that I have something to solve?" There was some surprise in Li Zhi's tone.

Li Ling smiled and said: "This is nothing strange, in the past month or two, King Ge Lin has been asking for relations everywhere, intending to negotiate with you, and the emperor's secret reporting channel is just a person with status in the officialdom, who doesn't know the reason why he is so nervous?" And many people can also see that some of this person is deliberately spreading influence, and the purpose is nothing more than to ask you to have a mouse-trap when you target him in the future! ”

Li Zhi shook his head, "This person is really as I guessed, human nature is really not good!" It seems that he can't do it, and many people guess it? ”

"That's not true, people who are at the level of auspicious knowledge will not easily confide in the truth, there are all kinds of guesses below, but these conclusions are quite limited, because they are not qualified to know more details!"

"But these people will not include the Empress Wu and her staff!"

"What the fourth brother said is right, it is precisely because of this that the emperor moved his mind, and did not hesitate to use this opportunity for King Ming's westward journey, asking me to mix in it just to cover people's eyes and ears!"

Now Li Zhi has been fully recognized by the Ming Palace, which can be seen from Li Ling's call for his fourth brother.

As for what he said about Gaozong's use of this word, it also indirectly shows that his identity is secret, but in Li Zhi's opinion, the big deal is that he is just another chess piece arranged by Gaozong a long time ago.

It's just that the difference between the two is that Li Zhi is aimed at the entire royal family surnamed Li, while Li Ling focuses on the army surnamed Li.

"I do have the intention of taking down King Gelin, and this year was born not long ago, after the arrival of King Nanjiang." Li Zhi told the truth.

Li Ling nodded, "King Ge Lin's strong suppression of the King of Linhuai County before, it is not that the relevant personnel are ignorant, but that they want to wait and see what happens, and wait for the opportunity to search for their flaws, so that they can kill and attack if necessary!" ”

"What are the relevant people that the fourth brother is talking about?"

"The alliance between King Song, King Jiancheng, King Nanjiang, King Xuan, and King Ming has been completed, and you are only one of the initiators. It has been gradually deployed long before the emperor left Chang'an City, and now a framework has been formed, and rigorous measures are being improved! ”

"Where's my father-in-law?"

"The King of Linhuai belongs to the second echelon, and he is also trying his best to reduce his chances of showing up, just like this time King Green's small move, the King of the County will not tell you, but it has also been discussed by relevant personnel!"

Li Zhixia seemed to be transparent all of a sudden, and he was in a good mood.

He thought of such a situation, but he didn't think about it very deeply, and it was still far beyond his guess that Gaozong personally gave everything.

With the emperor personally intervening, the chance of being secretly exposed is greatly reduced, because there will inevitably be a series of related remedies at the same time.

This is also tantamount to telling him that there are major matters related to the entire Datang Society, and he Li Zhi is by no means moving forward alone, and there are already protective preparations in all aspects secretly.

"So, King Green's actions have long been included in our sight, just waiting for him to dig a deep pit for himself?" Li Zhi seems to have understood a lot in vain.

Li Ling replied in the affirmative:

"To make it perish, you must first make it mad! His short-sighted behavior, which is almost known to everyone in the world, not only makes the Empress Wu happy, but also causes the disunity factor in the royal family surnamed Li to be widely known, which is the last thing the emperor likes to see! And behind this irrational behavior, first of all, it shows that there is a ghost in his heart, and it is seriously inconsistent with his king-level status. ”

"Won't the Empress Wu side also anticipate it in advance? And at this time, even if I hide outside the Western Regions, I will never be able to get rid of suspicion, right? Li Zhidao was worried in his heart.

"If that's true by common sense, there's something else to it! In recent times, King Ge Lin has been secretly and frequently showing favor to the Empress Wu, but if we contact the Empress Wu directly, we are really not easy to start, and it is unfortunate that he intends to communicate through the Wu Sansi of the Wu family. ”

Li Ling's words stopped at the point, the purpose was not to take the school examination, but to stimulate Li Zhi's officialdom sensitivity.

Li Zhishao has dealt more with officialdom, and it is also the only thing that Gaozong is worried about, Li Ling was deliberately reminded by him, so he thought of using this matter to nudge him.

It's just that they would never have thought that Li Zhishi was reborn, had the memories of his previous life, and was familiar with the general process of history, so he could completely bypass the officialdom and directly target the key personnel nodes.

However, Li Ling's intention was also achieved, and Li Zhi almost instantly seemed to understand the twists and turns:

"King Ge Lin never expected that during this period, Wu Sansi and the entire martial arts family would fall into a great crisis, in order to be alone, this person had an in-depth explanation, so King Ge Lin's secret trick was exposed!"

Li Ling was very pleased and said:

"Exactly! In this way, the effect of King Green's propaganda everywhere will indeed affect your next move, but it will also bring suspicion to the emperor and the royal family surnamed Li, and if the secret communication is revealed, the first thing that cannot be tolerated is the current emperor! ”

"And I happen to be far away, my ability is not up to it, and King Ming also goes with me, and at the same time excludes the suspicion of Dali Temple?"

"That's why my father was honored to serve as the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, representing the imperial court to the Western Regions, and giving the fourth brother's marriage a solemn name! The ridiculous thing is that the person who made such a suggestion in the court was a member of the Wuhou family, of course, from the Wuhou's instructions, so the emperor pushed the boat down the river and set the Ming King and his party! ”

"It's really dramatic, but why did Empress Wu's ideas change so dramatically?"

"Nature comes from you! Fourth brother, the big action you made in Luofu Mountain is extremely terrifying! The consequence is that ordinary people are afraid of your strength, and people at the level of the Martial Empress are worried about the huge influence on you and the cultivation world! This woman has political ambitions, and it is normal for her to look forward to the imperial power, and to use a little means to deliberately befriend you! After all, after destroying more than a dozen forces in one go, and killing two thousand people, in exchange for the goodwill of the cultivation world, before the battle against the water, the Empress Wu is the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, what can I do with you for a while? ”

"And the recognition of me by the Fengyi League, I'm afraid that this is the reason that attracts the infinite imagination of insiders, right?"

"Fourth brother, do you know that the three words of the Fengyi Alliance are a taboo among the insiders of the imperial court, even if they have to talk about it, they are all replaced by the three words of the cultivation world!"

Li Zhi suddenly realized that he thought that Li Ling deliberately had reservations about himself, but he didn't want to have such a secret in it.

Li Ling also pointed to the end, his duty is not allowed to say more, even if he knows that Li Zhi does not necessarily know less than himself, this is also a kind of helplessness in his identity, and he must always hide it in the face of his family.

Li Zhi could understand his distress through a sentence, so he smiled:

"Although you and my brothers can talk about everything, a man should be responsible. And your mysterious undertaking also makes me unable to say some things directly, let's just understand each other! ”

The implication of his words is also obvious, like the secret realm of Chaoyuan, as a family member, Li Ling must have been slightly informed, but Li Zhi will never introduce him into it, this is not a matter of trust or distrust, but due to the extremely secret nature of work in Li Ling's court.

Li Ling laughed, changed her usual informal smile, patted Li Zhi on the shoulder and said:

"Fourth brother, it's good to understand each other, it's a big truth for men to put responsibility first, and if you talk about it, it will make us more and more harmonious with each other!"

Li Zhiying laughed a few times, but suddenly the topic changed: "Regarding the issue of collecting evidence for King Green's crime, is the second brother also looking forward to the secret guard?" ”

Li Ling nodded, "At least for now, we can only use them to better keep us out!" In my opinion, the emperor will not use other secret forces, this is not a matter of life and death, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan! ”

"What does the second brother mean, you just tell me what I mean, the emperor is waiting for an opportunity?"

"In fact, the emperor didn't need to ask for your opinion, but in my opinion, he was afraid that you would have other arrangements, and the reason why he asked me to come, the point is to signal you not to act rashly!"

This is also very clear, Gaozong is afraid that he will be angry and adopt the methods of cultivators, which will be somewhat contrary to his layout.
