When Wang Yuan entered the door, Gongsun Lan and Li Xin'er had already dressed up and were about to go out, planning to find Wang Yuan, for fear that Wang Yuan would make a mistake again.

Seeing Wang Yuan's return, everyone had a false alarm, complaining and rejoicing.

After dinner, Wang Yuan called Gongsun Lan and Li Xin'er to come to the study, and told them the news they learned today and the meeting with Li Fuguo, and the two of them were the only people Wang Yuan could talk about about this matter. Wang Yuan also wanted to know if there was a problem with his judgment, Gongsun Lan had lived in the palace and had some insight into the affairs of the court, and Wang Yuan wanted to hear her opinion.

As soon as Wang Yuan finished saying this, Li Xin'er was surprised: "This is unlikely, it has only been a few months since the matter of Emperor Wei Jian's Fu Weiming, and the old thief wants to do it again?" Moreover, Li Yonghe and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are not closely intertwined, he is actually not a party of the prince, if it is said to deal with Li Shizhi, it is still said in the past. Although Liu Ji's wife is the sister of Prince Liangdi, the prince has never had any dealings with Liu Ji, and as far as I know, the prince doesn't like this Liu Ji at all. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and looked at Li Xin'er and said: "What Twelve Niang means is that Ji Wen is going to trouble Li Yong, so that he can implicate Li Shizhi by bringing down Li Yong, and he will not target the prince, right?" ”

Li Xin'er said: "I don't know, I just think that the old thief is too anxious to take another action against the prince." And it is far-fetched to talk about Liu Ji. ”

Wang Yuan shook his head slightly and said, "I don't deny that what you said makes sense, but my intuition tells me that this matter is not that simple." He sent Ji Wen to Beihai County, and the letter to Yang Zhao also said that he was going to deal with Li Yong. And that Liu Ji is in Beihai County, is this a coincidence? If I were Li Linfu, if I wanted to bring down Li Shizhi, I wouldn't have to work so hard. Besides, the identity of this Ji Wen is also a mystery, he is a Jingzhao Mansion Shicao, why did he go to Beihai to find trouble with Li Yong? Don't you think it's strange? ”

Li Xin'er didn't have enough brains, and said in amazement: "I didn't expect this, this Ji Wen's identity is really difficult to explain." ”

Wang Yuan looked at Gongsun Lan, Gongsun Lan slowly raised his hand and cut the candle flowers with small scissors, so that the study was bright, and said softly: "Wang Yuan, you know my attitude, I have always disapproved of you getting involved in these things. However, it is difficult to stay out of the matter now. You are concerned about this matter because you are worried that Li Linfu will be unfavorable to you after he really succeeds. After all, Li Linfu and Wang Ji are still hostile to you, right? ”

Wang Yuan nodded and said, "This is one of the reasons. ”

"Oh? Are there any other reasons? Are you really sincere in your consideration for the prince's safety? There was a hint of ridicule in Gongsun Lan's words.

It is inconvenient for Wang Yuan to say it clearly, did he still expect to be able not to be dragged down by the Yang family when he told them that the Anshi Rebellion would happen in Datang soon?

"Even if it's okay, tell me what you think." Wang Yuandao.

Gongsun Lan smiled and said, "It seems to me that this matter will not be as simple as Xin'er said. Just need to understand one thing, who is Li Linfu's biggest enemy at present? If you think about that, you will understand everything. Why did Li Linfu keep Li Shizhi when he had many opportunities to get rid of him? It's not that Li Linfu doesn't want to, but he can't do it. Because Li Linfu's number one enemy is not Li Shizhi, but the soon-to-be-enthroned prince. As soon as the crown prince ascended the throne, Li Linfu had only the fate of being killed in addition to rebellion. He couldn't make a rebellion, so he could only pull the prince down from the position of prince before this, and let the king Shou he supported sit on the throne of the prince, which was his top priority. ”

Li Xin'er said: "I also understand this, but why can't you deal with the prince after Li Shizhi?" It doesn't seem to hurt. ”

Gongsun Lan said: "This is Li Linfu's strength, either solve the prince's problem first, or Li Shizhi and the prince solve it at the same time, which is in line with Li Linfu's ideas." You all know that Li Shizhi can't be regarded as the prince's party, and he is surrounded by Pei Kuan, Li Yong, Pei Dunfu and others, none of whom can be regarded as the prince's henchmen. I don't know the specific reason, maybe Li Shizhi has the candidate in his mind, but he is not satisfied with Li Heng, all of this is unknown. If Li Linfu had overthrown Li Shizhi earlier, imagine what the pattern of the DPRK and China would be? ”

Wang Yuan said in a low voice: "Are you saying that if Li Shiyi falls, all the officials of Li Shiyi's faction will directly fall to the prince, so as to form a joint force against Li Linfu, so that it will be more difficult for Li Linfu to bring down the prince, isn't this in line with Li Linfu's ultimate purpose?" ”

Gongsun Lan nodded and smiled: "That's exactly what it means." was originally a three-legged stand, and he insisted on forcing Liu Xuande and Sun Zhongmou to unite against Cao Mengde, even if Cao Mengde was strong and strong, he might not be able to win. The Battle of Chibi is an example. As far as Li Linfu is concerned, his retreat is much smaller than Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde can still escape back to regroup, if Li Linfu can't move the prince, once the prince ascends the throne, it will be a head-to-head situation, and he can't afford to lose at all. ”

This metaphor is easy to understand, Wang Yuan raised his big finger and praised: "My cousin is the Zhuge among women, and she is extremely incisive. ”

Li Xin'er also understood, nodded and said: "So Li Linfu will give priority to solving the prince's affairs, and the master thinks that Ji Wen's trip to Beihai County this time must be related to the prince." ”

Gongsun Lan said: "I don't think Li Linfu will do anything useless and unfavorable to himself, as for the words you said about the case of Wei Jian Huangfu Weiming just a few months ago, this just shows Li Linfu's impatience." His Majesty is very old, and the crown prince is about to ascend the throne, so Li Linfu can't help but be anxious. ”

Wang Yuan nodded in agreement, thought for a while and asked, "Does my cousin think that finding Liu Ji as a breakthrough will be a threat to the crown prince?" Twelve Niang also said just now that Liu Ji actually has a bad relationship with the prince. ”

Gongsun Lan sneered: "In this case, anything can happen. Do you think the case of Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming is reasonable? Didn't you still force Li Heng to retire the crown princess? His Majesty's attitude was ambiguous and unleashed, and it was not surprising that anything could happen under such circumstances. ”

Wang Yuan said: "Liu Ji's father-in-law, Du Youlin, is a subordinate official of the Prince's Mansion, I heard that Liu Ji and Du Youlin have a bad relationship, will they be taken advantage of?" ”

Gongsun Lan spread her hands and said, "I can't answer this question, because I don't know what means Li Linfu will use." But if you really go to Beihai to pass through the line of Liuji, I'm afraid your worries are not superfluous. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "I don't know what kind of response the prince will make, I'm really worried that the prince won't be able to deal with it." ”

Gongsun Lan smiled: "You are worried about the prince, there are many capable people in the prince's mansion, will you not be able to think of a good way?" ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said, "After Wei Jian's case, do you still believe that there are capable people in the prince's mansion?" Divorce the crown princess Wei, draw a line with Wei, and let Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming be killed, if this is also a good way, then I have nothing to say. ”

Gongsun Lan smiled: "It seems that you are not ruthless enough, in the eyes of some people, the prince's move can be described as a strong man's broken wrist, which is extremely smart and decisive." And in fact, after the prince made these statements, Li Linfu really had nothing to do with him. ”

Wang Yuan took a sip and said, "Phew, this is also a way, it's a shame." I can't keep my wife, is I still a man? I look down on him for doing this, it's not a hero, it's a bear. ”

Li Xin'er grinned, held Wang Yuan's arm and said, "What are you angry about, it's really, it seems like forcing you to divorce your wife." ”

Wang Yuan said: "Even if I lose my head, I won't take my own woman to save my life." ”

Gongsun Lan smiled silently.

Wang Yuan said: "I'm very worried, with the prince's thoughts, I can't get rid of that Du Liangdi again, saying that I have nothing to do with ***, so I came to avoid this catastrophe." Then I'm really speechless to the prince. ”

Gongsun Lan and Li Xin'er were stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, it is not impossible to do this, the crown princess can take a break, and the second concubine can naturally take a break, anyway, it has already been done once It is very effective, why not do it a second time?

Wang Yuan said: "I'm thinking, how can I think of a way to bankrupt Li Linfu's conspiracy, maybe I shouldn't just do nothing, anyway, Li Linfu doesn't have a good impression of me, why don't I come out and stir it up." ”

Gongsun Lan said: "You are just a Hanlin scholar and a servant of the imperial history, what can you do to come out and stir up?" ”

Wang Yuan said: "Don't forget, there is the Yang family behind me." As long as His Majesty still favors the Yang family, everything is possible. ”

Gongsun Lan smiled: "Do what you want, I see that you are actually enjoying it, you men are like this, but everything that fights for power and profit, you are always very excited." I used to think you weren't like that, but now I realize that you're just like everyone else. ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Power, money, and beauty, I can do whatever I want." ”

Li Xin'er took a sip and said, "You dare." ”
