Chapter 063: The Prince is a High-Risk Profession
After eating a soft nail, Li Zaixing was a little disappointed, mixed with a little disappointment. However, he didn't show it on his face, he responded calmly, exchanged a few more pleasantries, and turned to leave.
Wang Xun turned around and went back to the inner room, went upstairs, and said to Li, who was still sitting behind the window, "He's gone." ”
"Is there anything out of the ordinary?"
"No, it looks peaceful." Wang Xun paused and said: "Although this son is uneducated, he is not rude, and he is a man with a city. ”
Li Shi was sitting behind the window just now, and he had been paying attention to Li Zaixing's every move, but it was too far away, after all, it was not as clear as Wang Xun's face-to-face appearance. Listening to Wang Xun's words at this moment, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. When Wang Xun saw it, he couldn't help but be a little strange: "County Lord, who does he look like?" ”
Li Shi glanced at him and pondered for a moment: "It's better that you don't want to know." ”
"Why?"
"I know, you can't help, in case of an incident, you will become an accomplice. In that case, it's better not to know. ”
Wang Xun was embarrassed. He also knew that his mother and son were cowardly and couldn't do anything big. Li's affairs, he really can't help much, and it's useless to know about it. It's just that Li's words made him very faceless, he was depressed for a moment, and smiled helplessly: "County Lord, I know I'm useless, but after all, we are husband and wife, if something happens to you, even if I don't get involved, can I rest assured?" ”
Li Shi was gloomy, lowered his head, fiddled with the scroll in his hand, and said after a while: "This son is ruthless and thoughtful, I think, he should be a little sure." Besides, I haven't decided to ask him to do it yet. ”
Wang Xun nodded: "County Lord, I don't blame you, I just think you should be careful." Lao Tzu has clouds, good as water, maybe patience is a little weak, but it is the safest way. ”
"I see." Lee replied and turned his face out the window. After a while, she added, "I won't mess around without all means." ”
Wang Xun smiled bitterly.
……
Li Zaixing led Mitra back to Bodhi Temple, Al Maidi was sitting under the porch basking in the sun, stretching out her two long legs, and when she saw Li Zaixing coming in, she quickly shrunk her legs and covered them with her skirt.
"It's good to spend more time in the sun." Li Zaixing walked over, lifted the hem of her skirt, rolled up her trousers again, and looked at the skin color of her calves. The blue-black color has faded, revealing the white skin and pale cyan blood vessels again. Li Zaixing nodded with satisfaction: "Does it still hurt?" ”
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Al Maddy blinked: "The walking pile taught by the master is very useful. ”
Li Zaixing smiled to himself, and said in his heart that the two thousand years of divine art in the Eastern World could not be experienced by you Hu people. "Practice well, this channeling technique can not only cure diseases, but also strengthen the body. You used to work a lot on the horse, but you didn't have enough foot combat, and you need to strengthen your kung fu so that you can adapt to the high-intensity boxing training. ”
"Okay, I'll definitely practice hard." Al Maddy secretly glanced at Li Zaixing, and saw that Li Zaixing's face was not very good, so he hurriedly asked, "Why, Princess Yongmu doesn't see the master?" ”
Li Zaixing thought for a while, dragged a Hu bed, and sat next to Al Maddie: "You are right to Ah ...... How much do you know about Hula's teachings? ”
Al Medi was curious. Li Zaixing cared very little about her beliefs, and even couldn't pronounce Ahura's name. She had always felt that this was a common arrogance of the Tang people, but she didn't think much about it. Now when Li Zaixing suddenly asked about Ahura's teachings, she was both happy and a little surprised.
"The host...... Want to know what? ”
Li Zaixing said the Li family's request just now, and Al Maidi listened to it and frowned: "If the county lord wants to understand our teachings, why do you want to go to Jinggongfang?" Jinggongfang does have a shrine, but there are not many believers in Dongcheng District, the scale of this shrine is very small, and the priest's Taoism is also limited, if she really wants to understand our teachings, she should go to Liquanfang, that is, the Zhengfang and Yining Fang's ancestral halls are also more suitable than Jinggongfang. ”
Li Zaixing has only been in Chang'an for a few days, and he is not familiar with Chang'an, and after listening to what Al Maidi said, he can't help but be suspicious. If Lord Li really wants to worship the temple, it is impossible not to understand the situation of the Chang'an City Temple in advance, why did she choose Jinggongfang, could it be that there is something special about Jinggongfang? And if she wants to understand the teachings, she can let Al Maidi come to visit, why do she have to go to the inconspicuous shrine in Jinggongfang?
It seems that the shrine may just be an excuse, the key is in Jinggongfang, and there are people in Jinggongfang.
Of course, the first step is to find out who this county lord Li is. It's obviously a very simple thing, but she made it so complicated, whether it was stupid or another reason, he had to figure it out first.
Li Zaixing immediately went to the martial arts field to find Wei Yingwu. Wei Yingwu almost didn't go home at night for the past two days, either messing around at Yang Miaoer's house, or playing in Bodhi Temple, practicing martial arts with Xie Guanglong and others, fighting, and occasionally chasing Li Zaixing to learn two tricks, and his life was very leisurely.
Li Zaixing didn't ask directly, but asked about Princess Yongmu first, and slowly turned to Lord Li. Hearing the word county lord, Wei Yingwu patted his thigh and said: "If you want to say that the Taiyuan Wang family is really not blown, they have married princesses for several generations, and when it comes to the generation of Wang Qian and Wang Xun, they have pushed it for thousands of times, and in the end they still married a princess." ”
"Lord Li turned out to be a princess?"
"It was supposed to be a princess." Wei Yingwu said with a smile: "You probably don't know that the father of this Li County Lord is Li Ying, the prince of the concubine who was unjustly killed, and her mother is from the Xue clan in Hedong. If this crown prince had not been killed, she would have been a princess in the future. Now, being able to be a county lord is already a great grace. ”
"Lord Li is...... The daughter of the deposed prince? ”
"Weird?" Wei Yingwu laughed strangely: "The prince is a very dangerous profession, there are not many people who can ascend the throne normally of my Tang Dynasty, and it is not the first one to die like him, and it is estimated that it will not be the last, there is nothing strange." ”
Li Zaixing broke out in a cold sweat.
Wei Yingwu saw that Li Zaixing looked like a countryman who was rare and strange, and couldn't help but be interested, and set up a dragon gate array to eliminate Li Zaixing's illiteracy. After listening, Li Zaixing felt that Wei Yingwu's words were true, the profession of the prince is really a high-risk occupation, the one hundred and thirty-three years after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, from the Xuanwu Gate was hacked to death by the Chengcheng prince, to Li Ying, the father of the county lord of Li, there were actually seven princes killed, an average of less than one in twenty years.
The reason why Li Ying was killed was very simple, at that time his mother Zhao Lifei was dead, and it was Concubine Wu Hui who was favored, that is, the biological mother of the unlucky longevity king Li Mao who was robbed of her daughter-in-law by Lao Tzu. Concubine Wu Hui wanted her son to be the emperor, so she united with Li Linfu and her son-in-law to attach Ma Yang Xun to frame the prince Li Ying and other three people for rebellion, but the prince was deposed and immediately given to death.
Li Zaixing pondered for a while, and immediately grasped the key, Li Ying was killed by two culprits, one is Li Linfu, and the other is Yang Huan, who is attached to the horse. Needless to say, Li Linfu is next to the Bodhi Temple, so where is Yang Wei?
"Yang Xun? He lived in Jinggongfang, where he had lived since his father Yang Shenjiao's generation. ”
Li Zaixing said in his heart, sure enough, this Li Junjun asked me to go to Jinggongfang, probably because he wanted me to recognize Yang Xun's appearance and ask me to kill people for her, as a condition. Will...... I'm also the son of the deposed prince?
Thinking of this, Li Zaixing suddenly became excited.
"Does the prince have any other children besides this daughter?"
"Yes."
"Where are all the prince's sons?"
Wei Yingwu suddenly glanced at Li Zaixing, and laughed: "You don't think you are the son of the prince, do you?" Then I can tell you, don't dream about it. Although the crown prince died, there were many sons, and soon after he died, the Son of Heaven regretted it and handed over his children to the emperor's eldest son, Li Cong, to raise, and now they should all be in Baisunyuan. Alas, in fact, the princes and grandsons are not interesting, except for worry-free food and clothing, they are stuffed in that big courtyard every day, like prisoners, how can we be so comfortable. ”
"Haha......" Li Zaixing smiled in disguise, both a little disappointed and a little relaxed. He didn't want to get involved in these palace struggles, let alone a prince who had been deposed. As Wei Yingwu said, when today's son is strict with the close lineage clan, it is the distant clan that is more comfortable. Li Linfu is a distant clan, and he can also be the prime minister. The reason is simple, their royal blood is too far away, and it is impossible to become a contender for the throne at all, and the Son of Heaven is at ease with them.
After hearing these news, Li Zaixing had a rough idea in his heart. After two days, when Al Medi could walk freely, he took Al Maddy and the others to Jinggongfang to see the terrain first.
Jinggongfang is not far from Pingkangfang, just east of Qinrenfang, and Anyi Fang is separated by it. Entering through the west gate, I soon found the inconspicuous shrine on the south side of the cross street. And Yang Xun's family lives in the north of Cross Street, less than 100 steps away from the Zoroastrian Temple.
Compared with Pingkangfang, there are more powerful families in Jinggongfang, with the surname Yang and the surname Wei, and many people in the Wei family live here, no wonder Wei Yingwu is no stranger here. Although Jinggongfang only has an inconspicuous ancestral hall, almost all of them are residences, but it is one of the few workshops that does not have monks and nuns Buddhist temples. Perhaps because of this, Li Zaixing walked around the workshop for a long time, and he didn't see any rangers. But as soon as he came out of the west gate, he was stopped.
More than a dozen young men in brocade clothes rode horses, scattered in groups of three or five, and a sturdy young man who looked like a leader sat on a steed, his left leg was resting horizontally on the saddle, the whip gently knocked on his thigh, and his two eyes were high and low, revealing indescribable arrogance.
"Look at you horse, and these beautiful orchids, you are probably Li Zaixing of Pingkangfang Bodhi Temple, right?"
Li Zaixing glanced at him, and said nonchalantly: "Exactly, which hero is the step?" ”。
