When Li Qing's car stopped in front of King Shou's door, he found that Li Xiu, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, had just stepped out of the carriage, Li Xiu looked at Li Qing in front of him and was obviously stunned, and only after a while did he speak: "It seems that I came by coincidence." Although the two have not had much contact, if they want to talk about the relationship, I am afraid that the relationship between Yan and Di is not as good as the relationship between Li Xiu and Li Qing. From mutual curiosity and suspicion at the beginning, to sympathy for each other later, and then to fighting side by side, life and death are trusted.

In the main hall of Shouwang Mansion, Li Qing and the two sat down in the main and guest seats, waved away the maids who served, and picked up the best Mengding Mountain tribute tea, which was better than paying tribute, Li Qing took a sip and said: "Li Gongzi is here, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as reminiscing, right?" ”

Shaking his head, Li Xiu said straight to the point: "Now, presumably His Highness should know why the Tibetan envoy came to Beijing?" Don't hide it from Your Highness, this time, whether it is the one in the palace or the people in the court, many people have proposed Princess Taihua as the princess of harmony. ”

Even if he already knew it, now that he heard Li Xiu in front of him mention this matter again, Li Qing still couldn't help but feel a burst of anger, looking at Li Qing's gaffe, Li Xiu sighed, and said thoughtfully: "It's a pity that Queen Zhenshun is not here, if Queen Zhenshun is here, who would dare to propose this to the princes of the court?" ”

The queen mother is not there, but the king is still alive, they do this, probably thinking that the king is not in Chang'an all the year round, but they can't help them, this time the king wants them to see, can the king help them? ”

I was really afraid of something, Li Xiu hurriedly said: "Father is afraid that His Royal Highness will be impulsive and do something out of the ordinary to make me come to visit in such a hurry without the slightest evasion, Your Highness knows why King Tan and the crown prince can abandon their previous suspicions in this matter, and even King Yong has to intervene, because at this moment they wish His Highness made a move, if His Highness is impulsive, the happier they will be, after all, this matter is caused by them in the final analysis." ”

"As far as I know, His Royal Highness Shangyuan Festival should plan to mention to His Majesty that he will return to Jiannan with the princess and daughter."

Li Qing was not surprised that Li Xiu knew about this, after entering Beijing, although he did it secretly, but Chang'an City was the territory of these people after all, not only the prime minister knew, but even the prince and others probably knew, as for the one in the palace, he naturally also knew.

Li Xiu was not surprised by Li Qing's silence, and continued: "Your Highness knows that you can't have both fish and bear's paws, once Your Highness disobeys Your Majesty because of Princess Taihua's affairs, and even does something more out of line, even if Yang Guozhong and her father join forces, it will be difficult for the princess to leave Beijing." ”

"The purpose of these people is this, no matter who the princess is and what they have to do with them, the royal family has always been weak, they just want to disgust His Royal Highness, what they value is nothing more than the princess, over the years, everyone can see that the princess and daughter are the weakness of His Royal Highness, as long as they pinch them, His Royal Highness will not let them knead in the future, Your Majesty will be a hundred years later, no matter who among them becomes the master of Daming Palace, as long as the princess and mother and daughter are pinched in their hands, what can Your Highness do, This is the key to their rare unanimity. ”

Shaking his head, Li Qing put down the tea bowl, "Why don't you understand what you said, it's just that Taihua is my closest bloodline, and the queen mother died early, I only have such a sister, Yanyu's mother and daughter will not give up, and Taihua will not give up either, and the husband will do something and not do something." ”

Seeing that the persuasion could not be solved, Li Xiu shook his head, "If His Royal Highness is insistent, there will be no one above the court to help His Highness, in the final analysis, my father and His Royal Highness are only cooperative relations, my father has always paid attention to maximizing interests, and this matter has nothing to do with His Highness's great cause, as long as my father can send Princess Shou out of Chang'an City, it will be a dragon into the sea for His Royal Highness, and from now on, there will be no constraints, His Royal Highness should understand the stakes." ”

Nodding, Li Qing said, "This king is not an unreasonable person, if the prime minister helps each other this time, it is friendship, and it is his duty not to help." It's just that no matter what, this king must not let outsiders look down on the chastity of the queen, even the current majesty. ”

Unconsciously, the best tribute tea in the air also lost its taste, and he said to His Royal Highness that he was good at himself, Li Xiu turned around and retired, for some reason, seeing such a paranoid Shouwang, Li Xiu did not have half an imaginary disappointment in his heart, but had an appreciation, and put it in other words, even if he achieved that position, I am afraid he would not be so unhesitating.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, Chang'an City, originally because the New Year is approaching everywhere is full of festive and lively atmosphere, but the next day, when the sun rises, a team of city defense troops shuttles back and forth between the various squares and cities, and even the air is wafting with a trace of blood.

Not for anything else, just because one night passed, there were more than 30 high-ranking officials and dignitaries who had accidents in their homes, or were bizarrely stolen, because of the fierce resistance, they were killed on the spot by gangsters, or the house was flooded, and the whole family was not spared, and even worse, they went directly to the yamen to surrender, saying that they had been officials for several years, corruption and collusion, and the clan methods were strange, but the result was only the latter, and the family was not at peace.

Even in the end, even the Beiya Forbidden Army dispatched a group to maintain the stability of the imperial city, and these things only scolded Jing Zhao Yin, who was still thinking about An'an dividing the New Year, and was taken to Zichen Hall by the Imperial Forest Army early in the morning to be scolded by His Majesty the Emperor.

Of course, these are just the surface, some people who know the inside story, thinking of the rumors that circulated from the palace some time ago, are all in danger, and they have restrained the children of the family from going out, for fear of provoking someone, and a careless descendant will be ruined, so he is really wronged.

The matter is not over, the day is past noon, a unicorn carriage in Shouwangfu hurriedly drove to Danfeng Gate, passed the Danfeng Gate, led by the palace attendant to the outside, walked to the palace gate under the royal steps, a wisp of sleeves, Li Qing solemnly knelt down at the gate of Zichen Palace, this scene only scared the purple-clothed father-in-law who brought Li Qing in with him half to death, and immediately said: "Your Highness, what is this doing?" ”

Looking at the palace attendant in front of him, who was obviously not low-ranked, Li Qing arched his hand and said: "I still hope that my father-in-law will give you Your Majesty, even if Jiannan Jiedu makes Li Mao ask to see Your Majesty, I still hope that Your Majesty will agree, if Your Majesty does not see it, this king will keep kneeling until he kneels to death!" ”

The purple-clothed waiter's face was obviously hesitant, "Isn't it embarrassing for Your Highness?" There are still two days to go before the Chinese New Year's Eve, and His Majesty has long said that he will not summon foreign ministers in these days, and if it is not for the fact that the matter is too big today, His Majesty will not summon Jing Zhaoyin to reprimand him. ”
