Chapter 81: There Are Secrets
Su Chang and Fuzhou were defeated, if Han Xizai had a nausea in his heart, then Sun Sheng was the one who benefited the most. Feng Yan had been forced to resign from the phase, and Sun Sheng was appointed prime minister in charge of secrets. This made Sun Sheng raise his eyebrows. Because in the first year of Baoda, the crown prince ascended the throne as the emperor, Li Jingsui secretly made evil, and Sun Sheng was demoted to Shuzhou Jiedu, he was very resentful of Li Jingsui, the king of Qi.
Therefore, Sun Sheng is a resolute supporter of Li Hongji, the Duke of Dongping, with the attitude of King Qi towards him, if he becomes the prince, or even the Son of Heaven, will he Sun Sheng still have a good life? This time, Han Xizai won a big victory, Feng Yansi's party was demoted, and many people were forced to resign, and the phase was also surrendered. There was only one old fox left, and Song Qiqiu was still struggling to support it.
Sun Sheng felt that he needed to take advantage of the victory to pursue and win more victories and gain more benefits, so as to pave the way for Dongping Gong to seize the throne. Sun Sheng already had some ideas in his heart, but he still needed to discuss with Li Hongji, so he rushed to discuss. However, when he arrived at the mansion of Dongping Gong, Li Hongji was not there.
Sun Sheng thought about it and waited in the side hall. Sun Sheng was a frequent visitor to the Dongping Mansion, and everyone in the mansion knew him, so they let him go. The next person brought tea, and a housekeeper came up to talk to Sun Sheng, and the two of them talked about it, Li Hongji came, but with a smile on his face.
"Dongping Gong is beaming, is there anything good?" Sun Sheng smiled, brushing his gray beard on his chin.
Li Hongji saw that there was tea on the desk, so he hurriedly took a cup and drank it, and then said: "That Zeng Yiling of Xiaoxiang Pavilion really has a problem." ”
Sun Sheng was stunned for a moment and said, "What's the problem?" Lao Chen heard that Dongping Gong had some meaning to her, but I don't know if it's true or not? ”
"I do mean something to her, but it's not what you think." Li Hongji smiled, and his smile was very weird, far from the appearance he had half an hour ago. Seeing that Sun Sheng was puzzled, he said again: "That Zeng Yiling, I suspect that she has something to do with the old party of the previous dynasty." ”
"The old party?" Sun Sheng asked.
"Yes, the old party." Li Hongji repeated, and his voice became solemn: "Three years ago, I got news that there was a secret club of the old party of the former dynasty in the city, and they were thieves and tried in vain to subvert the imperial court. When I got the news, I secretly led my troops to rush over, but the thieves got the news and fled ahead of schedule, causing me to fall short. Over the years, I have been looking for traces of them, and now it seems that Zeng Yiling is very likely to be the old party of the previous dynasty. ”
Sun Sheng gasped, Li Hongji's words shocked him, Li Hongji had ever done such a thing? Not only does he not know, but I'm afraid many people don't know.
"That Zeng Yiling's origin is unknown, like that Yang Lian, there is very little information, and suddenly he appeared in Jinling, the signs are weird, how can people be unguarded?" Li Hongji said again.
Sun Sheng narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard and pondered, looking for a way to defeat Li Jingsui, the king of Qi.
Li Hongji continued: "Not long ago, I saw Zeng Yiling and Yang Lian in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the two of them didn't know what they were plotting, so it seems that the two have ulterior secrets. ”
Sun Sheng was moved and said: "What does Dongping Gong mean that this Yang Lian is Yang Lian, the old prince of the previous dynasty?" ”
"This Yang Lian's appearance is different from that person, maybe not." Li Hongji was not sure in his heart, and said: "Although it is very likely that he is not, there is one thing to note, he not only knows Zeng Yiling, but also has a deep relationship with King Qi." ”
Sun Sheng nodded and said, "The old minister understands what Dongping Gong means, striking Yang Lian is equivalent to breaking King Qi's right hand and making him unable to spread his wings." And Yang Lian and Zeng Yiling seem to have a deep relationship, and they are likely to be accomplices, we can start with Zeng Yiling. ”
Li Hongji nodded and said, "That's right, Prime Minister Sun, do you have any good opinions?" ”
Sun Sheng thought for a while: "That Zeng Yiling's apparent identity is just a prostitute from Xiaoxiang Pavilion, if she is arrested, maybe many people will jump out." ”
Li Hongji pursed his lips and thought, Sun Sheng's proposal is indeed feasible, but who will implement it? Although Li Hongji has a certain amount of seniority in the army, if he uses the forces in the army to implement this plan, his original strength will be exposed, which is inappropriate. And if that person's official position is not big, it is very likely that he will not be able to suppress Yang Lian, or the forces behind Zeng Yiling.
Li Hongji hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to shake his head and give up: "This may attract the people behind Zeng Yiling to be exposed, but for me, it doesn't seem to be of much benefit for the time being." ”
Sun Sheng was very persistent and said: "Dongping Gong, no poison is not a husband, the eldest husband must be decisive in doing things, but he can't hesitate!" ”
Li Hongji nodded and said, "I already have a plan for this matter, and it should be in these few days." ”
At this time, Han Xizai came in a hurry, and when he saw that Sun Sheng was also there, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and said, "Prime Minister Sun, you also got the news?" ”
Sun Sheng frowned and said, "What news?" ”
Han Xizai stroked his beard, his expression was a little solemn, and said, "It seems that Your Majesty has made up his mind." ”
Li Hongji said strangely: "What is the news?" ”
Han Xizai calmed down and said, "An hour ago, His Majesty summoned me and talked to me about Lichu. ”
Sun Sheng restrained his smile, Li Hongji's face also became solemn, Li Chu, two simple words made the hearts of the two of them nervous, isn't it all for the sake of success?
Both of them looked at Han Hee-jae with wide eyes, hoping that he would bring good news.
Han Xizai shook his head and said, "Your Majesty summoned me today to make King Qi the emperor's younger brother and ask me how I am." ”
"How did you answer?" Sun Sheng asked impatiently. Li Hongji's breathing also became rapid.
Han Xizai waved his hand and said, "What else?" His Majesty's mind is no longer a day or two. I'm just returning to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is about the same age as King Qi, and King Qi has a soft personality, so in this troubled world, he is not suitable to be a prince. ”
Sun Sheng clapped his hands and said with a smile: "This answer is good, I didn't deny His Majesty's opinion, but also said my own thoughts." ”
Li Hongji was most concerned about his father's decision, and hurriedly asked, "How did my father answer?" "If my father listened to Han Xizai's persuasion, then there is no doubt that Han Xizai is the first hero.
His Majesty did not speak. But looking at his expression, it seems that he has already moved. Han Xizai smiled, but he still had no bottom in his heart, so he could only comfort himself with such words.
Li Hongji couldn't help but clench his fists, this is a good hope. When there is hope, we must work hard. If you win the heir, you will definitely succeed. In the future, when his father dies, he will become the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he will take the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to fight in the south and the north, unify the world, and become a figure in the style of Tang Taizong.
Yang Lian paced slowly, Zeng Yiling's performance shocked him, how did she know her identity? Although Yang Lian did not admit his true identity, Zeng Yiling seemed to really know herself, and she also mentioned Princess Yongxing!
Although he denied it, Zeng Yiling didn't ask questions, but he had to think about Zeng Yiling's matter, how to eliminate this crisis?
Unconsciously arrived at the edge of the Qinhuai River, the river was surging, the boats were shuttling, Yang Lian stood by the river and stared ahead, and the layers of waves pushed forward. Just like the wheel of history, a generation of Tianjiao is gradually aging, and the next generation of heroes will gradually appear on the stage, and a generation of new people will replace the old!
"Ah, isn't this Yang Gongzi?" At this moment, a familiar voice sounded behind him.
Yang Lian looked back and was stunned. Emperor Zhou E was dressed in a man's clothes, and although he was bound to his chest, he still couldn't hide his beautiful figure. I saw her with red lips and white teeth, standing there slimly, like a lotus flower that came out of the mud and was not stained.
"It turned out to be Zhou Gongzi." Yang Lian smiled, since Emperor Zhou E was dressed as a man, he would not expose it.
Emperor Zhou E looked at Yang Lian with a happy face and said, "Your Majesty hunted Zhongshan and held a temporary competition, and Gongzi really won the championship as he wished, which is really gratifying." ”
Yang Lian smiled, took a piece of jade from his neck, put it in his palm, and said, "This is also a blessing for Gongzi Zhou." ”
Emperor Zhou E's face turned slightly red, and he explained: "Yang Gongzi saved our father and daughter that day, and Emperor E is grateful. This piece of jade is a piece of lucky jade, and I hope that Yang Gongzi has a bright future. ”
"Thanks to Zhou Gongzi's jade, I was able to go all the way and win the crown." Yang Lian said with a smile.
Emperor Zhou E laughed and said, "At that time, there were not many people who were optimistic about Gongzi. The preliminary round was promoted, and many people said that Childe was given by someone. ”
Yang Lian took the jade back and said, "Thanks to them, I won a lot of money this time." ”
"Won a lot of money?" Zhou Ehuang's big watery eyes widened, and his long eyelashes flickered.
Hearing a man talking sissy, and the person looked like a prostitute, the tourists on the side of the Qinhuai River hurriedly avoided one after another, for fear of causing bad luck.
Yang Lian smiled faintly, how everyone in the general looked down on him, and how he secretly bet and won a lot of money.
Emperor Zhou E laughed, his eyes were like a crescent moon, and he couldn't say that he was good-looking. Yang Lian was stunned for a while, he was a normal man, how could he not have any thoughts in his heart when he saw such a delicate woman like a flower? Yang Lian was a normal man after all, even if he knew what his purpose was, he couldn't help but immerse himself in it.
When Emperor Zhou E saw Yang Lian's sparkling eyes, he couldn't help lowering his head, his voice was almost inaudible, and said, "Why are you looking at me like this, like this." ”
Yang Lian smiled: "Your face is spent." ”
"Huh?!" Zhou Ehuang raised his hand and wiped his face vigorously with his cuffs, after all, the girl loves beauty, and there is something dirty on her face, how can she not be anxious? Besides, I'm going to have a reunion with my sisters later.
Yang Lian looked at her anxious look and said with a smile: "It's been wiped clean." You don't have to wipe it anymore, and if you wipe it again, your face will turn red. ”
Emperor Zhou E let go of his hand, looked at Yang Lian, and said seriously: "Did you really wipe it clean?" ”
Yang Lian nodded vigorously and said, "It's really clean." ”
Zhou Ehuang looked at the clean cuffs, and suddenly realized something, his face was like a red glow, and for a while, he was extremely beautiful.
