Chapter 593: Is it better to sell or sell
Cheng Wuting actually let him go, Li Xian was very puzzled. But his lover's house was actually sold, how could he not accept it? It's just that this kind of thing is not good to blatantly bribe in the name of reward, only when he goes out, he concisely says that this situation will be rewarded, and for the few thousand horses brought by Cheng Wuting, he also expressed it as indicated.
Soon, Cheng Wuting took dozens of his subordinates to gallop away to continue his mission, and he didn't know which family would suffer next. And Li Xian stood there and watched for a while, and immediately called Huo Huaien, and found that the head of the guard was full of guilt, and he was not easy to blame.
In fact, although things like soapnails are strictly controlled items these days, there are only a few people who must remember to return them to the Arsenal Department after fighting or using them, for example, he didn't think that he should let his own soldiers immediately disarm after returning from Liaodong.
"You go to Weiwei Temple now and find Wei Weiqing for me." After Li Xian finished his words, seeing that Huo Huaien was about to get on the horse and leave without saying a word, he suddenly came back to his senses, and suddenly stopped the person, "And wait, you go and find the order of the Chang'an Arsenal first, don't alarm the others in Weiwei Temple." ”
Huo Huaien agreed and left immediately, while on the other side, Cheng Wu slowed down his horse when he got out of Andingfang, recalling the scene he had just seen. So many sophisticated equipment, so many brave soldiers, although it is not as large as the original Emperor Taizong's Xuanjia elite soldiers described by my father, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Didn't Li Xianmo really mean that?
He only felt a cold sweat on his back, but now there was no one around him to discuss. It's not easy to talk to someone. After standing there for a while, the cold wind came and kept digging into the seam of his neck, and in a short time he felt so cold that he almost froze. Turning around, he saw that the dozens of sergeants accompanying him were also sitting on their horses motionless, he nodded appreciatively, and continued to move forward with a faint order, but he went to the mansion of the eldest princess of Linchuan.
At the same time, a certain person who was ordered to report on his work also entered Chang'an City with a dozen retinues. Along the way, I hurried slowly, and as soon as I entered the city, I saw that the streets were full of either errand soldiers or soldiers. Pedestrians were almost nowhere to be seen, and there was an atmosphere of solemnity everywhere. He couldn't help but feel worried, and led people straight to the Shangshu Provincial Military Department to return the order, and he came to the political hall to ask to see the ruling prime minister. But unexpectedly, he pounced.
"The Queen of Heaven summoned you, and the prime ministers all went to the Zichen Palace."
If he was just worried at first, then at this time, he really felt the smell of mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building. had to leave a message to go back for the time being, and when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw dozens of horsemen and horses roaring towards him, and the person headed by him was Cheng Wuting, who had a fate. He raised his voice to say hello.
Cheng Wuting had just come out of the mansion of the eldest princess of Linchuan, and he had also found some forbidden things, and was about to compile a piece to report to the Empress Wu. Unexpectedly, I bumped into such a group of people at the door. Tell the difference. He immediately dismounted and saluted: "It turned out that Pei Dadu escorted him back." Forgive me for being rude! ”
Pei Xingjian and Cheng Wuting did not have a deep relationship, but they once asked Cheng Wuting's father, Cheng Mingzhen, for some military techniques. Now the two sides are rarely in a polite way. After gossiping, he asked about the reason for such a big movement in Chang'an City, and after listening to the explanation, his face sank, and he finally swallowed everything he wanted to say.
Although the friendship is ordinary, Cheng Wu is a thousand horses Guoyi, and the news is very well-informed, I have heard that Pei Xingjian's return this time was personally named by Emperor Li, and it is likely that he will enter the political hall to be the prime minister, so it is inconvenient to be too cold, so he agreed to visit again in the future. After confessing his guilt, he dismounted and hurried into the palace.
Pei Xingjian stared at the back for a long time, and finally sighed softly. I haven't walked a few steps on the road, only to see the smoke and dust billowing on Qixiamen Street in the distance, and when the group of people stepped forward immediately, he and the person who led him looked at each other, and they were both stunned.
"Ha, when will Pei Daduhu come back? I didn't let me know earlier, so I could personally greet you, the general of the Western Domain! ”
"When King Yong says this, I'm going to be ashamed of myself." Although Pei Xingjian said that he had dealt with Li Xian once in total, he had a very good impression of Li Xian, and when he saw that the other party was speaking kindly, he smiled and said, "If I am a general of the Western Domain, then King Yong will be a famous general in the northwest and a famous general in Liaodong!" ”
"Ahem, if I am also a famous general, then as long as I can fight, everyone in the world will be a famous general! It's just that someone else put gold on my face, I have a few pounds and a few taels, don't I know it? This is called a civil and military all-rounder, and if it is not good, it is not a martial artist, and it is just a half-hanger! ”
Li Xian laughed at himself, and immediately remembered his purpose, and he didn't dare to continue to talk to Pei Xingjian, so he arched his hand and said: "Pei Dadu has worked hard to protect the distance, and I am still in a hurry to enter the palace, so I won't say much." I'm going to come to your house another day to beg for a drink, so prepare a drink and wait for me!" ”
Seeing that Li Xian didn't wait for him to answer at all, and galloped away with a group of followers and disappeared without a trace, Pei Xingjian had to shake his head and smile bitterly
: The official position, only Emperor Taizong Li Shimin, who was the king of Qin, can stand side by side with him. But this one is good, in front of a Chinese book order, he still behaves like this.
After a wry smile, he hurried home with someone. Since he was promoted to the protector of the capital of Anxi, Li Zhi gave him the first Yongning Fang in Chang'an City, not to mention the spaciousness, mainly because there are no acquaintances in the neighborhood, and it is better to be close. People say that they are cowardly in their hometowns, and he, who once served as the commander of Chang'an, returned to Chang'an again, but there was an indescribable heavy pressure.
I think that he was demoted to Xizhou at the beginning, because he said some unpleasant things about Empress Wu behind his back, and it was a good thing that the Son of Heaven summoned him back, but now that Li Zhi is blind and can't take care of political affairs, and the prince is not in good health, the power is completely in the hands of Empress Wu, will that one allow him to take charge of political affairs?
If it were usual, maybe Li Xian would have time to speculate about the latest pattern of political affairs after Pei Xingjian came back. But now that his heart is full of hundreds and eighty soapnails piled up on the ground in his house, where does he have time to think about anything else? Originally, he wanted to secretly return the things to the Arsenal Department of Weiwei Temple, but this matter was first exposed by Cheng Wuting, if he deceived himself and others, he didn't know what it would look like when it spread!
Yes, everyone knows that they are guilty of asking for guilt, so he will simply do it! Unless he is also as powerful as his cheap grandfather Li Shimin, there is no need to think about this forced palace. Moreover, this is not a subjective move, but being forced to move by others, which is simply sent to be slaughtered by others.
With such an understanding, he soon came to the Zichen Palace. However, the two guards guarding the door said apologetically that the Empress Wu had just ordered it to come down, and if the sky fell, it would not matter for the time being, even if the Son of Heaven came, he had to temporarily block it. Having said that, Li Xian knew that if his emperor Lao Tzu came, Empress Wu would not keep people out no matter what.
"Who the hell is here, so serious?"
Since Li Xian was accustomed to driving straight ahead, the two guards were relieved to see that he didn't insist on breaking in, and then smiled flatteringly: "It's not that the five ministers of the political hall are discussing it. Originally, His Royal Highness King Yong was fine to go in, but the Yulin Army Qianqi Guo Yi Cheng Wuting had just come to ask for a meeting, and it didn't take long for His Majesty to pass down such an order, and we also felt inexplicable. ”
Cheng Wuting's movements are so fast!
Li Xian was shocked in his heart, but after thinking about it, this anxiety was also in vain, so he simply didn't think about it so much. Just as he was about to go home, the two doors that had just been closed were pushed open, and immediately after, familiar figures came out, with gloom and dissatisfaction written on their faces. Especially the old Shangguan who was the leader, the constricted brow was a big pimple.
"This trip is really too vain! But just one warlock was killed, so much need to alarm so many princes and ministers? I also went to the princess's mansion to verify, which is simply unheard of! ”
Before he came out, he spit out such a sentence angrily, and immediately after, Shangguan Yi caught a glimpse of Li Xian, his eyes lit up, and his listlessness turned into vitality in an instant, he almost snatched out the door with an arrow, smiled and met Li Xian, and immediately hinted that he was driven out by the Empress Wu, and asked Li Xian, who was his son, to go in and persuade and persuade.
Sensei said that Empress Wu had an order first, because Cheng Wuting had already entered it first, and Li Xian couldn't rush in. So, he pointed to the two guards and said what Empress Wu had just ordered, and then spread his hands to show that he couldn't do anything. However, although Shangguan Yi looked disappointed, he did not let him go, grabbed his sleeve, and easily pulled Li Xian to the political hall of Menxia Province.
Of course, Li Xian can break free from the old man Shangguan, but the problem is that now the old Shangguan is in his sixties, and if he throws someone to the ground, he can't eat and walk around. So, he could only honestly go to the proceedings of the Narauszi.
As if it was destined that this day would be an unlucky day, the six-person joint meeting of the political affairs hall was only in the middle of the session, and a knock suddenly sounded outside, Pei Yan motioned to the scribe of record to open the door, but it turned out to be the empress Wu who was full of anger. As soon as the latter entered the door, he didn't care that the prime minister was present, and directly took Li Xian aside.
After a loud and fast-talking reprimand, Empress Wu threw a booklet to Shangguan Yi, and said firmly: "The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and after a long time, the nobles have even forgotten the law, and they dare to hide so many messy things at home!" Your prime minister has decided, and Xian'er is among them, so let's avoid it first! ”
Li Xian heard such a sentence before he could recover from the reprimand just now, and he was immediately startled. was about to bite the bullet and say two words, but unexpectedly, Empress Wu didn't give him a chance at all. At the moment of going out, Empress Wu suddenly turned around and gave him a meaningful look, and immediately walked out of the political hall with a few internal supervisors.
