The air in the study seemed to be compressed and solidified, Yang Yuhuan's cry made the fish go to hell, she told everything, Yang Guozhong betrayed, his head was dizzy, his heart was broken, and he unconsciously crawled on the ground, trembling all over.

"Your Majesty, the concubine's father died early, the family watched from the sidelines, thanks to the third brother Yang's responsibility, so that the father of the family was in the ground, and now he misjudged the situation, so that he is like a dangerous egg, the concubine is willing to become a monk for the nun to atone for him, in order to repay his old kindness, San Lang, the concubine is here to say goodbye to you!" After that, Yang Yuhuan's tears rained down, and even the world was moved by the sorrow and sorrow.

"Yuhuan, aren't you trying to force me to death?

Li Longji stepped forward and grabbed Yang Yuhuan's sleeve tightly, for fear that she would leave, and his eyes were red, "What a big deal this is, let my Yuhuan cry like this, my heart will break." ”

Yang Yuhuan hugged Li Longji's leg and cried loudly, "San Lang, the concubine can't bear you!" ”

Li Longji hurriedly squatted down, held Yang Yuhuan's shoulder, wiped her tears with his sleeve, and said in a trembling voice: "Don't cry!" Don't cry! That's what I promise. ”

Gao Lishi next to him sighed, Yang Guozhong escaped this catastrophe, he slowly walked over and said in a low voice: "Don't worry about Niangniang, what His Majesty said to the old slave is that Yang Xiangguo needs to be used to stabilize the overall situation, please rest assured!" ”

Yang Yuhuan's crying became softer, she raised her tearful face, and looked at Li Longji pitifully, "San Lang! Is that so? ”

Li Longji nodded heavily, "Yuhuan!" That's what I think, Uncle Yang is just confused for a while, I won't bother with him! ”

Yang Yuhuan suddenly burst into tears and laughed, she immediately frowned, and said timidly: "The concubine interferes in state affairs for her own selfishness. Please don't blame Your Majesty! ”

Seeing Yang Yuhuan's smile, Li Longji finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly comforted her: "How can I blame you!" State affairs are family affairs, and family affairs are my affairs. ”

Naturally, he had no intention of dealing with political affairs, so he turned back to Gao Lishi and said: "I want to accompany Concubine Ai back to the palace, and I will issue a handwritten edict later, and you will transfer the draft decree of the Zhongshu Sheren!" ”

After speaking, he gently helped Yang Yuhuan up, while whispering comfort. While slowly walking out, passing in front of Yu Chaoen. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Colliers. Colliers is overjoyed, this is no mercy!

When Li Longji walked away a little, Gao Lishi looked at Yu Chaoen and sneered: "Father-in-law Yu, I didn't expect you to have today." ”

The face of the fish is like the color of the earth. He kowtowed again and again and begged for mercy: "Ah Weng, for the sake of my past service to you, spare my life!" I would like to raise horses as slaves, and I dare not have the slightest dissent! ”

"Spare you!" Colliers' face was as cold as water, and he sneered and said, "If I fall into your hands, will you spare me?" ”

Speaking of which. He turned around and shouted, "Someone! ”

Several guards stepped forward. Colliers pointed to the fish. Word by word: "Drag this person out and beat him to death!" ”

"Savo your life! Ong spare his life! ~"Yu Chaoen~. L echoed in the Xingqing Palace for a long time.

At the beginning of the twelfth year of Tianbao, Li Cong, the king of Qing, was given death by Li Longji for the crime of killing his brother, and then his henchmen and those who had close contacts with him were disposed of. Zhang Jun, the head of the household department, degraded Jian'an Assassin Shi, and his younger brother Taichangqing Zhang Yan degraded Lu Xi Sima; Ji Wen, the squire of the military department, was demoted to the rank of captain of the dragon standard, but someone reported that he had colluded with An Lushan, and was immediately arrested and taken to prison for interrogation, and Ji Wen hanged himself in prison that night.

Li Longji immediately issued an order, Fenglong right section to make Ge Shuhan the left minister and the head of the household department, and the same Zhongshu door under the Ping Zhangshi; In the last holy decree, An Lushan was exempted from the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and the general Wang Sili was ordered to be the deputy envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and he was temporarily appointed as the envoy of Jiedu.

On the night of the first year, Princess Wanchun married Yang Guozhong's second son Yang Fei, and the festive atmosphere could not hide the tension of the current situation, and a black mist quietly rose from Fan Yang.

A team of cavalry has already gone out of Fengxiang, to the north galloping, approaching Longzhou and slowed down, here is already the right land of Longyou, it is the end of winter, the earth has been faintly covered with a layer of cyan, a clear sky hanging high with the golden sun, sprinkled with crystal-like, gentle light.

"General, I've never been so relaxed as I am now, I feel like I've unloaded a mountain."

Li Heng, who should have died, was wearing a moon-white robe and a flat-top scarf, he rode on a horse, kept looking at the endless Longyou Plain, greedily sniffing the fragrance of the earth in the air, he couldn't help but look up to the sky and shouted, and then laughed, his face was radiant, full of youthful breath that did not match his age.

Li Qing looked at the reborn prince with a smile, he understood Li Heng's feelings, how many years he had been the prince of the land in thin ice, but he was suddenly abandoned, and then he struggled in pain and despair, his future is only death, now, he is completely free, throwing away the shackles of identity, leaving the threat of death, in the past, Li Heng is dead, he has become a commoner.

"Although the commoners are humble, they have no thoughts and no desires, a blue sky, a warm sun can make them happy, and Your Highness has already experienced this happiness."

"Thoughtless, thoughtless!" Don't call me Your Highness. ”

At this time, a sergeant pointed ahead and exclaimed, "General, look! ”

Li Qing straightened up and looked into the distance, only to see that at the end of the sky, a long black line faintly appeared, winding quickly,

Soldier! ”

He immediately came to his senses, turned back to Li Heng and smiled, "Our prince is here." ”

The cavalry approached, and sure enough, it was Anxi Jingcai, only to see a carriage galloping out of the team and stopping in front of them, the door opened, and a person walked out of it, with a thin face, quiet and serene eyes, it was Li Yu who had just recovered from a serious illness.

When he saw Li Heng at a glance, his calm eyes became excited, and he walked quickly to his father's horse and knelt down slowly, "The child is here to greet his father!" ”

Li Heng turned over and dismounted, stepped forward to help his son, he looked him up and down, and said in a trembling voice: "Is Wang Erdi sick?" ”

"Father, my child's illness has improved a lot, but he is still a little weak. Horseback riding is not yet possible. ”

Li Heng nodded with satisfaction, "That's good!" That's good! Get into the chariot for the Father, and I have much to say to you. ”

Li Yu hurriedly helped his father, and the two slowly walked towards the carriage.

The father and son got into the carriage and went to talk in detail, and the general Xi Yuanqing also stepped forward to salute Li Qing, "General, the brothers have all packed up, and they can set off at any time!" ”

—

"Go? Who said I was leaving, tell the brethren to be stationed in Longzhou with peace of mind! "The order is over. Li Qing smiled slightly again and patted Xi Yuanqing's shoulder. He whispered: "Let's just wait to see the cranes and mussels compete for a good show!" ”

Xi Yuanqing was stunned, and he suddenly remembered something. took out a thick envelope from his bag and handed it to Li Qingdao: "This is the general's letter from the family, which was just delivered yesterday." ”

Li Qing took it and saw that the word 'urgent' was written on the cover. He was shocked, "Is there something wrong with the frightening geese?" He hurriedly tore open the cover, and inside was a thin letter, which was written by his wife Zhao Lian, just saying that everything was fine at home and that Li Jingyan was in good health. Let him not worry. He told him to pay attention to his body outside. At the end of the letter, the daughter drew a kitten's head with a pen. It was a greeting to his father, and Li Qing's heart was warm.

The envelope is still thick, obviously there is still content inside, he arched the envelope round, and sure enough, there is a letter, folded squarely, he took out the letter and unfolded it, there was not a word on the white cover, he was slightly surprised in his heart, opened it, Juanxiu's handwriting was densely presented in front of him, but the content of the letter made Li Qing's heart seem to overturn the five flavors, and all kinds of tastes filled his heart.

After a while, he sighed, put the letter away, and waved his hand lightly, "Go back to Longzhou first!" ”

In the carriage, Li Yu has quickly calmed down from the excitement of hearing the prince at first glance, he is different from other emperors and grandsons, since he was a teenager, he has witnessed how his father is a man with his tail between his legs in the East Palace, that period of time left a deep impression on him, to this day, this situation is finally his turn, he can't help but feel a little cramped and uneasy in his heart, after thinking about it, he whispered to his father: "Father, is it possible for you to stay with the child?" ”

Li Heng shook his head gently, put his arms around his son's shoulders lovingly and said: "Silly boy, my father is dead, how can I appear again, you now have Li Mi's assistance inside, and Li Qing's support outside, you will only do better than me, besides, the situation is also different, An Lushan's rebellion is imminent, and the emperor is also old, he knows that you are the prince, and it will inevitably make other princes dissatisfied, so he will inevitably delegate more power to you, so that you can take on the responsibility of the prince as soon as possible, this is for the consideration of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he will not establish a prince now." ”

His father's words made Li Yu's worries about the prince gradually disappear, he thought of his father's future, and asked worriedly: "Then where is Daddy going?" Will the child ever see his father again? ”

"I don't know, maybe I will go to Jiannan to retire, maybe I will go to Yangzhou to do business, or even go to Broken Leaf to make a small county order, these are all possible."

Li Heng stared out the window, a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes, and after a long time, Fang said lightly: "Actually, my father also knows that I am not dead.

But it doesn't matter if I'm really dead or not, the important thing is that I'm dead in the royal records, and even if I reappear in the future, it will be a fake Lee Hyung. ”

Li Yu was also silent, the carriage was very quiet, only to hear the wheels ratling, Li Heng saw that his son's face showed sadness, so he smiled, pinched his shoulder and said: "But my father is very relieved of you, you are gentle and beautiful, you will definitely be a good emperor in the future, work hard, reproduce the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and pass on my Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations." ”

Li Yu didn't speak, his eyes flickered, obviously thinking about something else, his lips moved, and finally couldn't help asking: "Father, how should I get along with Li Qing in the future?" Then he added, "I mean this time in the East Palace!" ”

Li Heng was slightly stunned, "This is what Li Mi told you?" ”

Li Yu nodded lightly, "Master thinks that after quelling the An Lushan Rebellion, the emperor will inevitably attack Li Qing, if I get too close to him, I am afraid it will affect my position as the crown prince, and he asked me to keep a distance from Li Qing." ”

"What do you think?"

"I think this is the front and back of a knife, the master only sees the side that hurts himself, but he doesn't see the other side that can hurt people with this knife, with Li Qing's support, isn't it a kind of protection?"

Li Heng breathed a sigh of relief slightly, "Wu'er can think like this, it is enough to reassure my father, your master doesn't know Li Qing, that's why he said that." But Li Qing was promoted by his father, he was the backbone of the princeling party back then, and even Li Linfu was planted in his hands several times, don't I know him? Li Cong, Yang Guozhong and the like, Li Qing didn't pay attention to it at all, he didn't bother to fight with them, and a piece of paper made them annihilated. It can only be reused, not enmated

Speaking of which. Li Heng held his son's hand tightly, stared at his son's eyes tightly, and said solemnly, "Wang'er." Yang Guozhong is my mortal enemy, and he will also be your mortal enemy, if there is no strong support from Li Qing in the future, you will be single-handed. How to defeat the people of the Yang family, you have to remember! The East Palace is just the beginning of your road to the emperor, but your own strength is the foundation of your ascension to the throne, this is a lesson in blood for your father who has been the prince for twelve years! ”

Li Yu suddenly, he nodded slowly.

It was late at night. Li Qing stood in front of the tent curtain with his hands behind his back. Gaze at a lonely star in the south. In his tent, a letter full of small characters lay quietly on the table.

It was a letter from Nanzhao. The seven-year covenant finally became the moon in the water, 'the queen mother died, the prince was young, and the concubine couldn't bear to leave, so she could only kowtow to the king and see each other in another period.

How can everything be successful in life, gains and losses are only in a thought, gains may not be happy, losses may not be sad, Li Qing, who has experienced ups and downs, has long understood the vicissitudes of the world, and staying in Nanzhao may be her best destination.

People have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, this is the norm, Li Qing silently put the letter into the brazier, in the light of the fire, a swan who asked him to dance gradually wandered in the long river of years.

On the night of the twelfth year of Tianbao, because of the princess's underground marriage, there is a little more mark of romance, the lamp market is like day, bright and displaced, the lover's gaze becomes extraordinarily gentle, or side by side at the bridge, or hand in hand under the moon, the lamp is similar every year, and the people are not different every year.

But the same is the interest of Chang'an citizens to visit the lanterns, eat dinner early, the sky has just wiped dark, every household has trivial doors, take their wives to the street to watch the lights, the street has already been crowded, there are many people watching the lanterns, there are many people watching the people, guessing riddles, fortune tellers, performing arts, selling jewelry, wooden swords, etc., each looking for a corner, business is prosperous, so that they are too busy to touch the ground.

Xingqing Palace is also full of all kinds of lanterns, these are all famous craftsmen miscellaneous, decorated with jade pearls, the light reflects the pearls, more than the lanterns on the street a little more gorgeous, the people who watch the lanterns do not see, the unicorn hall is brilliant, laughter and noisy, today is the day of Li Longji's marriage, he is full of interest, specially in the palace banquet more than four ministers.

'Smack! Syllable! The crisp applause sounded in the hall, and the whispering hall suddenly quieted down, Li Longji stood up excitedly, held up the cloud board and said to hundreds of important ministers who went to his private banquet: "Today's Shangyuan night, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, it is the time when the whole world is happy, I went out of the cabinet for the beloved daughter, and specially rehearsed the neon dress and feather dance with the concubine, please appreciate it!" ”

After speaking, he gently knocked on the loose board, a melodious sound of silk and bamboo seemed to come through the forest water, floating in the main hall, Xiao Guan melodious, sheng flute concurrently, just when the heart is hot and drunk, the music is refreshing, naturally makes people feel refreshed, suddenly, the sound of the golden bell dingdong euphemistically rises, a column of palace maids on both sides of the hall swayed out, with their hands behind their backs and sang in a clear voice:

"Tinggao is looking at the extreme, and Jiang Lian has not returned, but he is sick but has no strength. The fan is gradually thinning, Luo Yi is at the beginning, and the streamer is passing through the gap. Sigh apricot beam, double swallow like a guest. Where are the people, a curtain of light moon, as if shining in color.

The sound is getting lower and lower, the candlelight is gradually dimming, the sound is gone, the music is still there, the Guanghan Moon Palace is waiting for people to come, everyone can't help but lift their spirits, and look out of the hall together, only to see the daughter of the two long sleeve gauze skirts, flying in the moonlight, the shadow is swaying, the posture is graceful, the long sleeves shake, like a hibiscus blooming, the fairies dance together into petals, in the hibiscus stamen, the Guanghan fairy is rising, she is beautiful, it is Yang Yuhuan who has the appearance of a shy flower, I saw her eyes flowing, her lips lightly opened and sang:

"Silence, murmuring. Moving letters, clear sorrows. Ponder the young waves. Dili Guan Mountain, Liuxia Fangmo, falling red without information. Dark water, trickling blue. Drifting for a long time, what do you mean now, drunk and lying on the side! ”

After singing, a faint sigh, drunk and lying on the hibiscus petal, the jade arm is like a lotus, the crisp chest is half exposed, the melancholy meaning, like E's repentance, the ministers were amazed in their minds, Yang Guozhong's eyes showed remorse, and he secretly sighed that he didn't know that the beauty was on the side when he was a teenager; Ge Shuhan beside him, the wine in the cup unconsciously overflowed, and his eyes shot an incomparably hot color.

Li Longji smiled without saying a word, thinking about the joy of the pear orchard, under a bright moon, he frequently raised his glass to persuade wine, and there was laughter in the hall, singing every night, and the king laughed.

Several strong horses rushed into the Mingde Gate wildly, in front, the flow of people watching the lanterns was weaving, and the knight on the horse instead of slowing down, but fiercely raised the whip and whipped the war horse, the war horse neighed, and rampaged in the crowd, "The people in front of you dodge!" The sound of the people on the horse was like a huge thunder, which frightened the people watching the lantern and stumbled, and they fled for their lives to both sides with their wives and children.

The sound of heavy horses' hooves rushed through the building in front of Xingqing Palace, the knight turned over and dismounted, and handed the urgent letter in his hand to the eunuch on duty. Hebei Urgent~! "He prostrated himself before the temple, high. Report, An Lushan rebelled! ”

'Dangchang! Li Longji's wine glass fell to the ground, it should come, it is finally here!
