Empress Zhong looked at the tea on the ground and glanced at the palace maid with a blaming look, this palace maid's work efficiency was too slow. However, when His Majesty asked, he naturally wanted to answer, so he said, "I accidentally broke the teacup just now." ”

Li Jing was so thoughtful, he glanced at the case, pointed to the teacup on it, and said, "Who was here just now?" ”

Empress Zhong's face changed, and she hurriedly knelt down to give a salute and said, "Your Majesty forgives you." ”

Li Jing frowned and said, "Who is it?" ”

"Your Majesty, it's King Yan." Empress Zhong didn't dare to slack off, if she provoked Long Yan's anger, even if she was the queen, she would weigh it.

"Is that him?" Li Jing sneered, pointed to the remains of the teacup on the ground, and asked, "He came to Zitong's room and broke this teacup?" ”

"This, Your Majesty, the teacup was broken by the concubine." Empress Zhong said.

Li Jing shook his head and said, "Zitong, since you broke it, why are you so flustered?" This rebel son collided with me in the imperial study, and it is normal for him to come to Zitong to complain. ”

Empress Zhong's body shook, she didn't expect Li Jing to see through it, and she still knelt on the ground and kept silent.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Jing snorted, brushed his sleeves and left, going to Concubine Ling's place to rest. Empress Zhong waited until Li Jing walked away, then she slowly stood up, sighed softly, shook her head, and said, "King Yan, come out." ”

Li Hongji walked out from behind the screen, his face was still indignant, and said, "Queen Mother, Father Emperor ......"

Empress Zhong sighed and said, "King Yan, you are not too young, why did you make your father angry?" In any case, he is the king of a country, your father, and you must always have some respect for him. ”

"Respect?" Li Hongji was still angry, snorted coldly, and said: "Queen Mother, I am the son of my father, but the position of the prince of the Tang Dynasty is not me, but the weak and incompetent Li Jingsui!" As for that Yang Lian, he is clearly the old man of the previous dynasty, he is the old prince of the previous dynasty, and the purpose is to subvert the Tang Dynasty, why does his father trust him? ! ”

Empress Zhong frowned, her son's words were already a big rebellion, she wanted to scold, but when she saw her son's excited appearance, she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"What, can't you answer?" Li Hongji sneered, as if he wanted to vent the evil anger in his heart on his mother, and said: "Father and emperor are close to the villain, I am afraid that the Tang Kingdom will not be a country." ”

"Shut up!" At this time, Li Jing's angry voice came, he walked dozens of steps, and suddenly remembered that he had something to say to Queen Zhong, but he didn't expect that he had just come in and heard Li Hongji say such words, how could he not make him angry? Immediately shouted.

Li Hongji couldn't talk about his father appearing here, so he was stunned for a moment, and his angry expression quickly melted, and he turned to fear.

"Your Majesty, King Yan is drunk." Seeing that the situation was not good, Empress Zhong hurriedly said.

Li Jing looked at Li Hongji coldly, sneered, and said, "You are really my good son!" ”

Li Hongji knelt down with a "poof", and his body trembled.

After all, Empress Zhong loved her son and said busily: "Your Majesty, King Yan is young, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins." ”

Li Jing looked at the queen and said, "Zitong, you don't have to excuse him, I know what kind of character this rebel is." After a pause, Li Jing glanced at Li Hongji and said, "King Yan, you have been staying at home honestly recently, don't make trouble, otherwise, even if you are my son, I will kill you and deal with it." ”

Li Hongji hurriedly kowtowed again and again, and said, "Thank you father, thank you." ”

Empress Zhong also said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Li Jing shook off his robe and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered the purpose of coming back, and said: "Huairou marries Yang Lian, you, as an aunt, should be more careful." ”

"The concubine obeys." Empress Zhong said.

Li Jing turned around and left, leaving Empress Zhong and Li Hongji to look at each other in the room, and after a long time, Empress Zhong shook her head and said, "King Yan, you just listen to your father's words, don't go anywhere recently." ”

Li Hongji took a deep breath, and knew that at this time, he must not touch his father's moldy head, so he immediately nodded and agreed.

In the inn, after Gao Ze left, Yang Lian's mood was quite uneasy, so he paced in the room and thought, thinking for a while, feeling that this did not seem to be a conspiracy, according to reason, his rights could not be set aside, Li Jing or Li Jingsui wanted to take the way of marriage to win him over the person who had just made meritorious contributions.

Everything may be because he thought too much, Yang Lian shook his head, and tried to get rid of the unfavorable emotions in his heart, this is, it is not early, Yang Lian was about to wash up and rest, at this time, Lin Renzhao hurriedly walked in, arched his hand, and said: "Yang Jiedu, someone is visiting." ”

"Oh? Who? Yang Lian asked.

"This person refused to be named, but he said that there was a big secret he wanted to tell Yang Jiedu." Lin Renzhao said.

Yang Lian thought for a while and said, "Okay, you bring him to the study to find me." With that, Yang Lian put on the coat he had just taken off and walked quickly towards the study.

At this time, in the dead of night and the breeze blowing at night, Yang Lian thought while walking, who has a big secret to tell him at this time? When he arrived at the study, Yang Lian lit the candles, looked at the spotless study, and thought to himself that Wang Hu and Zhao Peng had not forgotten to clean the room these days, and they were quite careful in their work.

After waiting for a while, after a while, under the leadership of Lin Renzhao, a man in black entered the study. Lin Renzhao arched his hand towards Yang Lian and said, "Yang Jiedu, people have already brought it." As he spoke, he stepped aside, looking uneasy.

The man in black glanced at Lin Renzhao, and he also looked uneasy.

Yang Lian put down the book in his hand, looked at the man in black, and said, "What's the matter, you might as well say it directly, this is my brother." ”

The man in black hesitated slightly, arched his hand towards Yang Lian, his voice was a little hoarse, and said: "I didn't expect that Yang Gongzi would be promoted from a commanding envoy to a festival envoy on a trip to the Han Kingdom, which is really gratifying." ”

Yang Lian frowned slightly, this person's Wu language, thinking that Wu Yue was the majority, immediately said coldly: "Your news is well-informed." ”

The man in black smiled faintly and said, "Yang Jiedu, I won't tell you, I'm from Wu Yue." "The person who came identified himself.

When Lin Renzhao heard this, he was immediately furious, Wu Yue people designed in Xuzhou, the Tang people were more than 30 people, and only a few people were left alive, all of this was given by Wu Yue people, and it was really strange that he could give Wu Yue people a good face.

Lin Renzhao rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "Wu Yue dog, don't get out of here!" ”

Yang Lian waved his hand lightly and said, "Huzi, don't worry. As he spoke, he looked at the man in black, looked at him coldly, and said, "If you have anything to say, say it as soon as possible, I don't have time to talk to you." ”

"Okay, Yang Jiedu is quick to speak, then I'll say it directly." The man in black smiled faintly, walked to the chair in front of Yang Lian and sat down, looking familiar.

"Yang Jiedu, do you know that this time we successfully ambushed, and there is also the credit of the Tang people?" The man in black was speechless, and after throwing out this topic, he looked at Yang Lian with a sneer.

Lin Renzhao's face changed slightly, and his gaze at the man in black was already very unkind.

Yang Lian groaned slightly, and suddenly smiled: "The merits of the Tang people? You mean to say King Yan? ”

The man in black had a slightly surprised look on his face, but he quickly reacted and said, "How do you know?" ”

"Haha!" Yang Lian laughed, waved his hand, and said, "I advise you not to waste your efforts, although King Yan is not in harmony with me, but after all, he is a Tang person, how can he do something that damages the Tang Dynasty?" If you want to get separated, you should always think of a good way. ”

Seeing Yang Lian say this, the man in black was surprised by Yang Lian's reaction speed, but he still insisted: "Yang Jiedu, this time it is indeed Li Hongji, the king of Yan, who found my master and conspired together to determine this matter, if you don't believe it, I have a letter here, you can see it at a glance." As he spoke, the man in black took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Yang Lian.

"No need!" Yang Lian pulled the letter, threw it on the ground, and shouted: "I read that you are just a pawn, I will let you go, don't get out of here!" ”

The man in black saw that Yang Lian's face had changed, and was about to speak, but Lin Renzhao had already stretched out his hand and pushed him out, and kept shouting: "Get out, get out!" Let me see you again, see you once, and hit once! ”

Yang Lian and the others in black were driven out by Lin Renzhao, so they slowly paced, picked up the letter, opened it, and looked at it carefully. This letter was written by Li Hongji to Qian Wenfeng, the envoy of the Zhongwu Jiedu, and he told Qian Wenfeng that Yang Lian, as an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, had rushed to the Han Kingdom to negotiate peace affairs.

Although Yang Lian couldn't see Qian Wenfeng's reply, it was certain that after Qian Wenfeng knew the news, he would inevitably make such a choice, and the ambush in Xuzhou was enough to prove everything, they pretended to be the subordinates of Fu Yanqing, the envoy of Wuning Jiedu, and almost killed Yang Lian and others.

At this time, Lin Renzhao hurriedly came in and said angrily: "This person is really ridiculous, if it weren't for Yang Jiedu's words, I would definitely beat him up." ”

Yang Lian smiled faintly, handed him the letter, and said with a smile: "Although this person has bad intentions, his words may not be untrue. ”

Lin Renzhao took the letter, read it in a hurry, and said, "Yang Jiedu, do you really think it's King Yan's message?" ”

"It's not impossible, do you know that Your Majesty has already named King Qi as the emperor's younger brother, and after a hundred years of Your Majesty, King Qi can ascend the throne as the emperor, and King Yan is at most just a prince. If King Qi ascends the throne one day, his fate will be even more unbearable. Yang Lian said.

"So, in this situation, he wants to stop us from making a difference. Stopping Yang Jiedu is equivalent to losing King Qi's right-hand man. Lin Renzhao said.

Yang Lian nodded and said, "That's right, this letter is supposed to be written by King Yan, and in order to win Qian Wenfeng's trust, he even stamped it." It's really unwise. ”

Lin Renzhao groaned for a moment and said, "In that case, do you impeach King Yan?" ”

"Don't worry, now his arrogance is not so arrogant, if he is suppressed again, I am afraid it will cause His Majesty's dissatisfaction, but it will be counterproductive. It's better to wait for the opportunity, this letter, put it away first. Yang Lian smiled, put the letter in the book, and clamped it. (To be continued.) )
