Gao Lishi watched the back of a large and a small disappear on the corner of the street, the smile on his face slowly put away, all the conversations were in his ears, and the Son of Heaven also knew this, and the so-called henchman was not avoided.

From ancient times to the present, the Son of Heaven who has reigned for forty years, there are only a handful, at this age, there will always be some cows, ghosts, snakes and gods who jump out and begin to plan what is behind him, only he knows, when today's son is in good health, he can count women, play polo, although the faith is not lost, never touch those false pills, and the longevity is only afraid to disappoint those who have a heart.

Similarly, he himself has reached the end of his life, and he doesn't need to think about the next generation at all, this loyalty will only be firmly on one person, and everyone else is an enemy, there is no difference.

With this obsession, he turned around and planned to go into the house, he had been out for a long time today, and he needed to be reminded that it was time to go back to the palace.

Suddenly, I heard a deep voice behind me: "Gao Gong, Gao Gong." ”

Gao Lishi looked back at the person who came, he was no longer short, the other party was more than half a head taller than him, plus a fine armor, like a door god.

"General, what's wrong?"

Chen Xuanli, the general of Longwu, saluted him with his crossed hands, and said hurriedly: "Oh no, the envoy of the Tubo people has collided with the crown prince. ”

"Let's go, follow me."

Gao Lishi was worried that this matter was really not small, and he didn't care about disturbing the peace of the Son of Heaven, so he hurriedly took him into the inner hall.

"Did they say why?"

"They said that they were sacrificing for their eldest brother on behalf of their prince." Chen Xuanli's tone was like a stone being smashed into the mud.

Li Longji seemed to have heard a funny joke, the Tibetan people's mission will come to Chang'an City every three or five days, in recent years, it has been very much, and the demands are nothing more than those few things, re-establish the covenant or something, and if he can't do it, he wants to use words to keep the territory, and when the crisis passes, he will tear it up as waste paper, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world.

For the nominal righteous sister, he has never even met a few times, the latter has been raised in the palace by his uncle Emperor Zhongzong since he was a child, married at a young age, and then his father ascended the throne, and also thought that the righteous daughter, because it was in a period of chaos at that time, and the court needed a stable external environment, including when he first took charge of the government, the same.

But everyone knows that it is only a temporary political compromise, the Tubo people have never stopped the invasion, only when they lose, they will ask for a truce in the name of the princess, the more they come to the back, the more humble they are in their words, and finally thirteen years ago, the princess died in her residence, and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has reached an unprecedented height.

Isn't that going to hold up? Li Longji sneered and asked, "How did the prince do it?" ”

Gao Lishi looked at Chen Xuanli a little nervously, this question is not easy to answer, although the position of the prince now looks very solid, but the mind of the Son of Heaven, how can others guess it, in case it is aroused by any bad thoughts, even if it is just a rebellious mentality, it is enough to kill.

"According to the Yulin military envoy who came to report the news, the prince ordered people to pass the message on the one hand, and asked the Tubo envoys to the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple on the other hand, but today the chief officials of all the ministries were ordered to go out of the city, but I am afraid that they will return in vain."

Chen Xuanli replied honestly, and Li Longji said "um" noncommittally, but he didn't mean to move.

"Hasn't Yang Guozhong left the city yet?"

Gao Lishi seemed to be very accustomed to his whimsical thinking, and replied softly: "Yesterday and the day before yesterday, they held a feast in the house, saying that it was a farewell, and I am afraid that there will be another one today." ”

"What about you? Didn't you get the post? ”

"The old slave is saying that he wants this, and after serving everyone to dinner, let the old slave show his face, okay?"

Li Longji showed a reluctant expression: "You have all agreed, and you asked me what I was doing." ”

"Just an hour." Colliers salivated and leaned closer and said.

"What feast, to eat for an hour?"

"Half an hour." Gao Lishi pulled down his face bitterly: "You can't gallop a horse at night, no matter how fast the old slave is, it will take some effort to go back and forth, so it's not good to really show your face." ”

"Okay, don't pretend, give you two hours, don't rush too much."

Li Longji made a gesture of flicking his sleeves, like driving away a pesky fly.

Gao Lishi was relieved to be amnesty, and he was very cooperative: "The old slave knew that His Majesty was tolerant, so he responded to Dr. Yang first, and he was afraid that he would come to the palace to disturb us again." ”

"Isn't it just crying, I don't know if I listened to the words of a stupid thing, but also because he has a good temperament, he cries for more than an hour, without stopping, you say, where does a person get so many tears?" Li Longji really doesn't understand.

"It's just a little trick, if you want to see it, the old slave can cry for so long, but his eyes hurt afterwards."

Li Longji was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, and couldn't help but shake his head: "If he doesn't leave, Li Genu's illness will not be cured, how many things are going on in the court, and no one is worry-free." ”

Gao Lishi couldn't answer this, like Chen Xuanli, he stood there with his head down, the latter had been waiting for the emperor's reply, who knew that the two of them were chatting like family, he was helpless, but there was no way.

Li Longji glanced at him, and finally sighed: "It's all praised by you for being tolerant, and you can't ignore it, it's just that, I still wanted to try his temperament, but you're just too soft-hearted." ”

"Taoguang is obscure, Taoguang is obscure, after a lot of Taoxuan, I don't even dare to take a serious idea, such a character, how can I hand over this country to him in the future?"

"The prince is benevolent and filial, and he has never participated in military aircraft, so he is not easy to speak." Colliers was really relieved at this time.

The emperor hopes that his son will be a prince and take on the responsibilities that a prince should have, but the fifteen-year career as a prince has long made Li Heng lose his temper, so how can he still take responsibility?

Besides, when it comes to such a complicated relationship between the two countries as the war, does he dare to take responsibility, Gao Lishi knows very well that this is a stalemate, a stalemate that can only be lifted by the emperor's mouth.

Li Longji made the final decision with an awe-inspiring expression: "Spread the edict, the prince is to send sacrifices on behalf of the sky, collide with the prince's car, and other accomplices to assassinate, and the Tubo people will be beheaded from the deputy envoy to the bottom, and the envoy will be sent out of Beijing, and he will not stay for a while." ”

After a pause, he added: "General Lang, who guarded the prince's car, was dismissed and demoted to a soldier, don't you all go to this matter, isn't Gao Xianzhi taking it with you Yulin, let him go, the side general is murderous, he is here, and it will be concluded that there will be no such thing." ”

This is even the forbidden army with a little beating, Gao Lishi only responded, and hurriedly went out to call people, so as not to have any major changes.
