The matter of Qi's broken leg spread all over Chang'an in an instant like having wings, and under the rendering of good deeds with journalist talent, there were N versions of this matter, with Li Qing saving the beauty on the street, and the beauty was grateful to Dade and wanted to make a promise; Yang Qi bullied the evil and the good, and was punished by Li Qing; There are even more well-informed personnel associated with Suzhou Cabinet Fang, saying that this is a long-planned political conspiracy, some people are happy, some people are thoughtful, and of course, some people are like facing the enemy.

But for Li Linfu, he learned from this incident that Li Qing had returned to Chang'an, at this moment, the door of Li Linfu's study was closed tightly, the curtains were also drawn tightly, the sky was not yet dark, the lamp in the room had been lit, and the lamp suddenly jumped, stretching and shortening Li Linfu's shadow.

In the past few days, Li Linfu's mood has been quite uneasy, and the sudden death of Zhang Qiu and Qiong not only makes him happy, but also makes him worried, happy that his political enemies have disappeared, and the Zhang Qiu Party formed by the original Tai Party has officially disappeared, and his Xiangguo Party has also been strengthened; But he was worried that most of the power vacuum formed after the death of Zhang Qiu and Qiong was filled by Pei Dang, especially Yang Guozhong actually replaced Yang Shenjin as the most powerful minister, and his previous speculation began to become a reality step by step, Li Longji really wanted to support Yang Guozhong to replace him, and the strong loss made Li Linfu feel a trace of sadness for Zhang Qiu and Qiong's death.

Just as Li Longji cherishes the throne, Li Linfu can't let go of the phase he has been sitting on for more than ten years, and besides, his loss of power means that his end has come.

"Li Longji's plan must not be allowed to come true." Li Linfu elongated his nose groove, looking unusually cold, too wasteful, Zhang Qiu and Qiong died, the contradiction between Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong was directly put on the table, Yang Qi, who had always been rampant in Chang'an, was actually broken by Li Qing, which made Li Linfu both surprised and secretly happy.

He glanced at Ji Wen, who was sitting in the guest chair, and a smile immediately appeared in his cold eyes, "Shichiro, what do you think about this?" ”

Ji Wen has not changed the humble smile on his face since he entered Li Linfu's study, he is about forty years old, thin and small, he does not say much, but every sentence is just right, which makes people feel comfortable to listen to.

For a long time in the past, Ji Wen kept a low profile, until he was taken by Li Linfu and gradually became a confidant, he began to show his prominence and was promoted to the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Last year, Cui Qiao, the secretary of the Dali Temple, was transferred to his post, and Ji Wen took another step to serve as the secretary of the Dali Temple, and Yang Qi, who was broken legs, was his subordinate, and he just got the news, so he immediately rushed to report to Li Linfu.

Seeing Xiangguo's question, Ji Wen stood up and said respectfully: "My subordinates personally think that at this time, the Zhang Qiu Party is disheartened, and Li Qing will act in a high-profile manner as soon as he enters Chang'an, which is inconsistent with his style of acting in recent years, and it seems that he wants to reunite the hearts of the Zhang Qiu Party, but now the time is too late, not only did it not work, but instead of effect, it was unwise to set himself on fire and offend the Yang family!" ”

After Ji Wen finished speaking, he secretly glanced at Li Linfu, and saw that he sneered, and didn't seem to agree with his point of view, so he immediately said: "My subordinates can't see through this matter, so I ask Xiangguo for advice." ”

"It's not that you can't see through him, but you underestimate him too much,"

Li Linfu gently touched his big nose, shook his head and said, "Have you all forgotten the East Palace case of Tianbao for three years?" The old man was beaten to the ground by him, Tianbao five years Wei Jian case, who is the final beneficiary? The Yangzhou salt case and the imperial examination case, you all seem to have forgotten, think about it! What kind of reckless man is he? Will he do something to set himself on fire? ”

"But today, when Yang Guozhong went to Wannian County to lead Yang Qi, he released cruel words, asking Li Qing to look good!"

"Yang Guozhong is a fart!" "Who does he think he is, does he think that the emperor is fortunate to be in his mansion and appoints him as a servant of the ministry, so he can cover the sky with one hand? Tell you, not only will Li Qing not be punished for this matter, but the emperor will soon rush back to summon him and reward him for his trip to Suzhou. ”

"Xiangguo is talking about Zhang Qiu and Qiong?"

"Yes, it's for the sake of Zhang Qiu and Qiong."

Li Linfu slowly sat back on his old rattan chair, looked up at the ceiling, and said in a voice that was almost jealous: "Zhang Qiu's death is unknown, his old Yizhou department, Zhang Qiu's party, those court elders, Zhang Yun, Xi Yu and others are all looking at it, but the emperor is hiding in the hot spring palace, obviously he can't think about it, so Li Qing's move is to create an opportunity to force the emperor to express his position, hum!" Setting yourself on fire, you're thinking too simply. ”

Ji Wen's face was slightly red, he gave Li Linfu a deep salute, and sighed: "Xiangguo is old and spicy, and his subordinates have benefited a lot!" ”

At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door, and the butler said outside the door: "Master, His Royal Highness King Yong has come down." ”

Hearing this, Ji Wen immediately got up and said, "Xiangguo, then I'll go first." ”

Li Linfu nodded, "It's okay, you go first!" Suddenly, he stopped Ji Wen again, "You have to seize this opportunity to postpone Yang Qi's promotion to Dali Shaoqing, it's best not to do it, understand?" ”

"Yes! Subordinates understand. ”

.

"Xiangguo, can you know about Li Qing today? It's so exciting! Yongwang Li Lan had not yet fully entered the door, but his voice came in first, with a hint of excitement and even excitement in his tone.

"Your Highness wants to take this person for your own use?"

Li Lin saw Li Linfu

Lightly, he was not moved by his words at all, and he was stunned, but he immediately made Li Linfu jealous of the old problem of being able to do it again, and he was slightly dissatisfied, so he stretched his voice and said: "Yes, I have this idea, does Xiangguo think it is inappropriate?" ”

"Your Highness, please sit down and listen to the old man's words first." Li Linfu seemed to know Li Lan's thoughts, and sighed secretly, he had been fighting with Li Qing for so many years, and his heart to accept him had already died, even if Li Qing promised to be loyal to King Yong, but what about himself? The death of Zhang Qiu and Qiong doomed the hatred between them to be irreconcilable, but Li Lan was a very stubborn and conceited person, once he recognized the matter, he couldn't change it if he wanted to, Li Linfu was in a dilemma, but now he knew that he must not offend King Yong in this matter.

"Your Royal Highness, it is true that Li Qing and the Yang family have a falling out now, but this does not mean that he will lean towards us, the situation is still unclear, the old man thinks that he will have a future, you might as well wait and see, as long as the time is ripe, the old man will never object to His Highness accepting him."

"Xiangguo: Did I want to win him over because he fell out with the Yang family?"

Li Lan shook his head slowly, and said with an unusually smug smile: "Xiangguo knows who he caught in Suzhou, Li Congzhi Li Li, I can't think of it!" Self-inflicted, can't live, now Li Cong is finished. ”

Li Linfu's words surprised Li Linfu, he knew that Guo Xuping, the governor of Suzhou, had been stabbed, but he didn't know that Li had been caught, so he hurriedly asked, "How did His Highness know?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that, I have my own sources."

Speaking of this, Li Cong Huo Ran got up and stared at Li Linfu and said: "The key now is that we must not let this matter go wrong, we must prevent Li Conggou from jumping off the wall before the emperor returns!" ”

.

At night, the pedestrians on the Suzaku Street are weaving, the bustle is better than the day, the soldiers on patrol have returned to the government one after another, the soldiers on duty are less, the focus of security has also shifted to the area of Xingqing Palace, the small vendors who make a living take advantage of this gap to set up a stall on the Suzaku Street, there are only a few at first, and then more and more, until now it has stretched for several miles, an oil lamp is like a star in the sky, even a long string, you can't see the end at a glance, it is very spectacular, and gradually it has become a big night scene in Chang'an.

The goods on the stalls are dazzling, most of them are low-grade goods, from handicrafts to food and snacks in the Western Regions, and the prices are relatively low, so they are quite popular with the citizens at the bottom.

The carriage was passing through the flow of people, there were more than 30 knights on both sides of the car closely guarded, Li Qing leaned in front of the window of the car and silently looked at the faint lights, looking at the helpless and numb faces of the small traders, he seemed to have returned to the era more than a thousand years later, when the laid-off trend was at its peak, there were also such stalls on the street, which was a precursor to economic recession, and the weakening of national strength was often the first to be felt by the people at the bottom.

The Tang Dynasty household squire, a high-ranking official who holds the financial power of the Tang Dynasty, can not do anything about this situation, this is not a solution to take one or two measures, this is a drawback in the system, the clan magnates, the court officials, as long as they hold the power, they also control the source of wealth, it is this unequal system that causes the unfair distribution of wealth, the poorer the poorer, the rich get richer.

Li Qing shook his head helplessly, closed the curtain of the car, he couldn't help but think of Zhang Qiu and Qiong, it was the seriousness of the problem that the teacher found out about the seriousness of the problem, so he decided to carry out land reform, but unfortunately he only raised his arms and shouted, and before he had time to act, he fell.

Li Qing had just finished worshipping Zhang Qiu and Qiong, and was on his way home, he was in a state of turmoil, and he was shocked by the words that his wife couldn't help but say when he parted.

"Your master has actually stabilized, but after the imperial doctor left, his injuries immediately deteriorated, and he soon died.

'Imperial Doctor, deterioration. ’

Li Qing's eyes were full of sneers, things couldn't be clearer, Zhang Qiu and Qiong died of murder, and his reform violated the fundamental interests of the clan elites.

From Wang Zhonghei to Zhang Qiu and Qiong, at this moment, Li Longji's image in Li Qingxin has been ruthlessly shattered, he once had illusions about this king who created the prosperous era of Kaiyuan, but the cruel reality made him sober, what Li Longji wanted at this time was not to make the country strong, but to do everything possible to keep his throne, so that his life of poverty and luxury would continue endlessly, and his own salt tax reform and his own cabinet reform had become extremely pale and hateful in front of this king who spent a lot of money.

'Western Regions~' Li Qing couldn't help but lift the curtain and look into the distance~ like yearning for it, for a while, he brushed the ground and pulled down the curtain again, yearning for it, but he didn't want to go now, some accounts had to be settled before leaving.

The carriage turned a corner, left the lively Suzaku Street, crossed a short street, and soon arrived at his mansion, Li Qing got out of the carriage, but suddenly found a gorgeous carriage parked at the door, which seemed to be a little familiar.

Just as he frowned and thought, the butler who had been standing at the door and was waiting for him ran over in three steps and two steps, "Master, Pei Xiangguo is here, and he has been waiting in the guest hall for almost half an hour." ”

'Pei Kuan? ’

Li Qing's heart brightened, he sneered lightly, and said to himself: "He came very quickly!" ”
