In the palace of the king of Chang'an City.

In the East Warm Temple.

King Qi Shangjin, wearing a somewhat old brocade robe and a heavy fur coat, nestled on the couch and looked at the dancers dancing in silence in front of him.

Outside the hall, two guards standing on one side with golden knives in their hands glanced into the hall, and couldn't help but whisper to each other: "Our Highness is also weird...... Such a good dance posture is not accompanied by music...... What's interesting where? ”

"Isn't it? It's as if there is no wine. ”

After discussing twice, they suddenly heard bursts of laughter from outside the palace, and immediately cheered up and straightened up.

The person who came was Yongwang Sujie.

When Su Jie, who had already drawn up a lot of height, carried his hands behind his back and strode into the hall, Shangjin had already gotten up and greeted his brother.

"You're idle." Su Jie was not very polite, but looked at the dancers who passed by, and inevitably had to salute, smiled and walked away, and said lightly: "On such a good day, I still stay at home and don't go out." ”

"My brother's words are inappropriate...... Where is a good day like this? Shangjin watched Su Jie sit down and said lightly.

As soon as Su Jie sat down, he was stunned by what he said, then looked at him for a while before asking, "What?" You seem to be very unhappy with the fact that the two of us can be placed in Beijing. ”

"Do you think my brother should rejoice?" Shangjin didn't answer the rhetorical question, and sat a few times beside him.

Su Jie thought for a while: "You don't think you should be happy?" ”

"Why should Shangjin feel happy?"

"The absence of the Emperor and the woman makes it more convenient for us to do something, isn't it?"

"What else can we do? Brother? ”

"What do you mean?" Su Jie was stunned.

Shangjin looked at him and said lightly, "What else does my brother think we can do?" It is to replace the old, weak and sick left in front of the city gates with our elite and strong generals, guarding this almost abandoned empty city for my father and the woman; Or do we turn the old attendants in the Taiji Palace, who have long been left behind, into our bright ears and eyes, so that when the father of the Taiji Palace, who is about to be abandoned, returns to the palace, we can listen to who he wants to take away from this Taiji Palace? ”

Su Jie was stunned again, and only raised his eyebrows after a while: "You said that my father abandoned the capital and Taiji Palace?" How can it be! ”

He shook his head with a smile and said: "Luoyang is known as the eastern capital, but in the end, it is necessary to add an eastern character in front of the capital." No matter what, it can't be regarded as the real imperial capital. In this Chang'an City, my father will come back sooner or later. If we arrange it early, then it will be more convenient to move in the future. ”

"That brother thinks that my father didn't think of this? Or do you think that woman won't guard against this? Shangjin asked lightly.

Su Jie closed his mouth, he was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "You are right...... If that woman still values this...... I really shouldn't have taken the slightest precaution to ......."

He raised his eyes and looked at Shangjin: "You are thoughtful, and you have always been stronger than your brother." Let's talk about it. ”

"My brother's words are wrong, if you talk about being thoughtful, Shangjin is really not as strong as your brother. It's just that in this matter right now, the elder brother was blinded by that woman's methods, so naturally he couldn't see the key points, which is not surprising. After all, if she wants to deal with one person with all her might, no one can easily dodge it. Shangjin said quietly: "It's just brother, Shangjin just wants to ask his brother one word, presumably so that his brother can understand Shangjin's worries......"

He stopped and said lightly: "Today, my father can move to the eastern capital to avoid the cold because of his uneasy health. So in the coming day, can the father also use such a reason to abandon the Taiji Palace and build a new palace? If this is the case, then brother, do you think he will choose to go to the Eastern Capital to establish a new palace, or to build a new palace in Chang'an City? ”

Su Jie's words were inexplicable: "This...... What if there is a new palace again? Why do you care? ”

Shangjin shook his head, but sighed: "It turns out that my brother still hasn't understood what Shangjin asked: does my brother think that in his current state, if his father abandons Taiji Palace, then he will set up a new palace in the eastern capital as the place of Emperor Chen, or will he choose to build a new palace in Chang'an City?" ”

Su Jie frowned and thought for a moment, and his knuckles tapped lightly on a few sides and said, "Taiji Palace has gone through two dynasties and six generations, and it is already old. In addition, the terrain is unfavorable, as early as when the first emperor was there, there were many ministers to play, and the first emperor was asked to build a new palace.

However, although the first emperor built a palace such as CW, he did not live for a long time. Those who come and go will still stay in this Taiji Palace. Therefore, it is said to be extravagant, and it is a waste of money......

In fact, if you talk about it, if the CW Palace is repaired in a good place, I am afraid that the first emperor will set it up as the main palace of Emperor Chen, and it will not be moved.

To be clear, in the entire Chang'an City, there are not many places suitable for the new Emperor Chen Palace...... Unless the old palace is restructured and rebuilt.

According to the nature of the father, it seems that this is the most probable...... After all, the Eastern Capital is only the Eastern Capital, and the Father Emperor should not ......"

"Does my brother really think that?" Shangjin looked at Sujie quietly and said softly:

"Does my brother really think that as far as my father is concerned, he will be willing to stay in Chang'an City and build a new palace to continue to control the capital of this former emperor?"

Su Jie was stunned: "Isn't it?" ”

Shangjin shook his head, beckoned someone to come and take the map, unfolded it and looked at him, while pointing to the Eastern Capital and Chang'an to Sujie and said:

"Compared with the Eastern Capital, the Eastern Capital is located in the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty, the climate is more pleasant, and the distance from the borders is also the most suitable to master the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Brother, at the moment, after all, the British Duke Li Ji still has an ambiguous attitude and does not show his belonging. So in order to be able to rely on this more steadily, if you are the father, you must also abandon Chang'an and choose Luoyang?

Moreover, I, the ministers of the Tang Dynasty, have always been the most powerful in the two lines of Guan Long and the clan. What my father hated the most, or what needed to be cleared up, was the dispute between these two factions. Brother, you think, since Emperor Gaozu opened the dynasty, or even earlier, these two factions have cultivated countless light and dark forces in the capital. It can even be said that in today's Chang'an City, a seemingly ordinary peddler pawn has its own master behind it...... Is such a capital city an advantage or a disadvantage for a person who urgently needs to seize the power of the world? And in the eastern capital of Luoyang, it is now full of people and cronies of the emperor...... Do you think it's just a coincidence?

My father is a human being, and my brother knows it. The so-called benevolence and cowardice are really just his façade. Such a person who has a strong desire for power, and can even sacrifice his wife and children for the sake of power...... How will he choose, what does the elder brother think? ”

Su Jie was silent for a while before he said lightly: "But you and I both know that as far as my father is concerned, there are still many things here that he can't give up......

"These things that can't be given up can't withstand his desire for absolute power, and there are ......" Shangjin closed his mouth before saying lightly: "I am eager to throw away those past hearts that he doesn't want to mention again." ”

Su Jie was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Shangjin: "Don't want to mention the past again?" ”

"Wu Meiniang."

Shangjin spit out three words lightly, but Su Jie was stunned: "You said Wu Meiniang? How could she be in the past that she didn't want to talk about again? ”

"Of course she wasn't. But her identity is. Shangjin said lightly: "Brother, didn't you forget that she shouldn't have been the queen originally." Because ......"

Su Jie suddenly said: "Because after all, she was a talented person of the first emperor...... Do you mean that in order to make people forget about this matter, my father would also choose to leave Chang'an and establish the capital Luoyang? But this has nothing to do with us......"

He froze suddenly.

Shangjin looked at him and nodded, a hint of pity flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure: "It seems that my brother has thought of it." ”

Su Jie's expression was complicated, and he took a long breath before he said, "Okay...... What a Wu Meiniang, I can say that my father promised to leave the two of us in this abandoned capital Chang'an, and be a ...... for them."

He sneered: "It's just that this thing may not be as she wishes!" ”

An hour later.

In the Taiji Palace, His Royal Highness Lizheng.

Mei Niang saw Ming He rushing in from a distance, and knew that there was a response to the things she had arranged, so she nodded lightly, said a few words to Li Zhi who was teasing Li Hong with a smile, and slowly walked out and came to His Highness on the side.

"Niangniang, there is a response outside the palace."

"Did Su Jie believe it?"

"His Royal Highness King Qi believes it, so naturally he will believe it."

"You said that you have a golden letter?"

"Exactly, and it was His Royal Highness King Qi who tried his best to persuade His Royal Highness King Yong, saying that Niangniang arranged it like this, it must be to facilitate the move of the capital to Luoyang in the future. This Taiji Palace and Chang'an City stayed, but they left them together. ”

"Really?"

"Niangniang seems, don't you think so?"

“…… It's not enough. You know what kind of kid Shangjin is. How could he be so gullible about us? How could a man who refused to make music for dancing in his house so easily in order not to let his accomplice Su Jie suspect him a little, and so did he refuse to make music for the pleasure of dancing in his own house?

I'm afraid it's the opposite? ”

"What does Niangniang mean ...... His Royal Highness King Qi saw Niangniang's thoughts, in fact, he wanted to take this opportunity to suppress the arrogance of His Royal Highness King Yong, so he did it intentionally? But the mother...... What good do you say to him? ”

"At the moment, it doesn't seem to be very good. In the long run...... Sujie is not stupid either. Do you think that when the two of them are in the same place on weekdays, in the face of such a shrewd Shangjin, Su Jie really has no defense in his heart? You forget the mother's feud between the two of them, but they themselves may not forget. So Shangjin's move, firstly, he really couldn't see what kind of chess this was between Hongu and Jiro, so he deliberately pushed Sujie out to do a test and find out.

Second...... It was also intended to be a trick for Su Jie-he knew that it would be impossible for the palace to suggest to Jiro to move the capital to Luoyang at the moment, so Tete said such a thing very carefully...... In the future, when the overall situation is certain, Su Jie will inevitably determine that Shangjin is wrong.

Whether it's vegetarian or gold, they are all smart people.

And the smarter the person, the more likely they will believe that a smart person who makes mistakes only by chance is far more terrible than another smart person who will never make mistakes, or who keeps making mistakes......

So he naturally let down his vigilance against Shangjin - but he didn't know that this was what Shangjin wanted most. At present, Shangjin, everywhere, seems to be in alliance with Sujie, but in fact, it is restrained by Sujie everywhere, and it is difficult to use it regardless of light or darkness. With his contempt, he naturally had the opportunity to act in secret, paving the way for himself, not their so-called alliance. ”

Mei Niang said lightly, and asked Minghe to be convinced. After a while, he said: "Then Niangniang, what do you think we should do next?" ”

"You don't have to deal with it. This game has been opened, whether it is Jiro or Hongu, or even Uncle Yuan and your masters...... All the back-ups had been set up a long time ago. So whether it is Su Jie or Shang Jin, from the moment they decide to step into this game, they are destined to lose. You just have to follow the instructions of Jiro and Hongu before, go according to the time, and get everything done step by step. ”

"Yes. That Niangniang, since His Royal Highness King Qi has expected that the Lord and Niangniang will definitely not move the capital to the eastern capital...... Will he take this opportunity to arrange manpower in the Jingzhong Palace? ”

"This is exactly what the palace is going to let him in. This kind of wolf ambition is his own family, so he naturally closes the door, so that he knows what can be done and what cannot be done. and ......"

Mei Niang smiled faintly and said: "What's the matter, even if he does it, it can only be a doomed and fruitless situation." Go and do what is arranged. ”

Minghe nodded yes and hurriedly withdrew from outside the hall. He looked left and right, beckoned a small attendant to come forward, and commanded in a low voice: "You go and pass the message to the father-in-law of De'an in the Inner Servant Province, and say that it is my thoughts, please ask his old man to approve it."

After all, the holy car will set off for the eastern capital in a few days. The two inner wardens and our inner servants and young eunuchs must also follow. There are many people in the Taiji Palace here, and things must be very mixed. If it is the same as before, assign someone who is not up to the task, and send news over there twice in three days, I am afraid that the Lord will be annoyed by it. So it's better to send someone who can calm things down. Don't have no eyesight all day long, and you have to report to the Lord and the mother for small things such as adding a person. ”

The waiter left. Minghe glanced at it, beckoned to the side again, and called a little palace maid and said: "You go and inform the commander of Lin Da on Jin Wuwei's side, just say that I mean, everyone is going to follow the holy car to the Eastern Capital, the people left behind in this Taiji Palace are too weak." It's just that Jin Wuwei is a personal companion of the emperor, and he can't stay. Then you have to save the commander, and if you don't succeed, you will transfer the defenders in the city to the palace. If he asks how the city is to be settled, he will tell him, "As far as I want, there are still two or three princes left in the city, and if they have been consulted beforehand, they will help if there is any great matter." ”

Xiao Gongniang nodded and immediately retired.

Minghe looked at the backs of the two of them going in completely opposite directions, and couldn't help but smile faintly.
