Chapter 288: In the Xuanzheng Palace
However, this news surprised Li Hong.
Today, Li Zhi summoned a cadre of ministers and Li Xian into the Xuanzheng Palace, and he knew about it.
As for what it was for, Li Hong also guessed seven or eight points.
But what made him a little strange was that according to his estimates, Dai Zhide and Zhang Wenqian should be able to deal with this matter, how could they come to summon him at this time.
What's more, Li Zhi deliberately chose to discuss this matter during the Turkic peace talks, wasn't it just to prevent him from interfering?
Why is he suddenly summoned again?
"Your Highness, please come over to Dai Xiang......"
As if knowing Li Hong's doubts, Wu Liangfu glanced around and whispered behind Li Hong.
Dai Zhide?
Li Hong's heart sank, could it be that what happened in the Xuanzheng Palace?
There are quite a few people in the Xuanzheng Palace!
Li Zhi and Wu Houwei sat on the throne, their faces a little gloomy.
And the ministers below also had different faces, and to Li Hong's surprise, it was not only the prime ministers of the political affairs hall who were present today.
Even Tang Lin, the secretary of the household department, Yao Chong, the secretary of the military department, and Zhang Da'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, were all present!
What surprised Li Hong the most was that there was still one who had not appeared for a long time who was present today, and now Wenxi County Gongpei Xingjian!
Without exception, these people all had ugly faces, on the contrary, Li Xian and Liu Renliang had a little smile on their faces.
Especially when Li Xian looked at Li Hong, there was a smugness in his eyes that couldn't be concealed.
"The sons see the father and the emperor, and the queen mother!"
Although he was a little puzzled by the situation in front of him, Li Hong's face was not revealing anything, and he respectfully saluted the emperor and queen.
Seeing Li Hong come in, Li Zhi's face looked a little better, and he asked.
"Hong'er is here, how are you talking to the Turks today?"
"Back to my father, the matter of peace talks is extremely complicated, it is not a day's work, the son has exchanged state letters with Ashina Fu Nian today, and will continue peace talks tomorrow!"
There are too many people in the current hall, so Li Hong didn't elaborate, but just brought it over lightly.
Fortunately, Li Zhi just asked casually and did not study it in detail.
Then we got down to business.
"Hong'er, are you on this recital?"
Li Zhi's face was slightly cold, and he picked up the fold in front of him and handed it down.
And Wu Liangfu was already waiting by the side, and then sent the fold to Li Hong's hands.
"Back to my father, this recital is indeed played by his son!"
After reading the recital, Li Hong said calmly.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhi's face was unhappy, and his tone was a little stern.
"Why are you on this letter? I and the queen are still here, so I don't need you to worry about this! ”
I have to say that this is the first time that Li Zhi has spoken to Li Hong in such a stern tone, that is, the ministers in the main hall, and it is also the first time that the emperor has seen such anger towards the crown prince.
The prime ministers of the government hall knew the contents of the song in advance, and although the reaction to the emperor was somewhat unexpected, it was still within the scope of acceptance.
And the rest of them only arrived a moment earlier than Li Hong, and they were still confused about the current situation!
After a pause, Tang Lin spoke.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has done to make His Majesty so angry? However, it is the duty of the East Palace, even if the words are inappropriate, Your Majesty should also be persuaded by a good student, please think twice! ”
Although speaking of which, Xu Jingzong was the oldest in the audience.
But the old fox apparently had a clear grasp of the situation, and stood there as if he had taken root, and did not say a word.
Although Tang Lin is not the highest official here, he is the most respected by Li Zhixin, and at the same time, he has a vague good impression of the East Palace.
That's why I dare to speak in this situation.
"Humph! Wu Liangfu, read that recital! ”
Seeing Tang Lin come forward, Li Zhi's face looked a little better, snorted coldly, and spoke.
And as Wu Liangfu's slightly sharp voice sounded, the ministers understood how heavy this piece of weight was!
For a moment, they looked at each other and didn't know what to say!
“…… Sonchen Crown Prince Hongjuan! ”
It wasn't long, so in just a few moments, Wu Liangfu had already read it all.
The ministers finally understood the reason for the emperor's anger, and it was really because the content of this recital was a little too sensitive......
Although the song is not short, it only says one thing in the whole article!
His Royal Highness King Yong is old, and he should be the country!
Since the last time the queen allowed His Royal Highness King Yong to enter the court to participate in politics, all the ministers smelled a trace of unusual smell.
And what happened later proved this even more!
King Yong's steps are getting bigger and bigger, although he has been repeatedly deflated under the hands of His Royal Highness the Prince.
But it is undeniable that because of the ambiguous attitude of the emperor, many ministers have been ready to move, especially when they see the powerful forces in the hands of King Yong.
But the ministers also understood that the prince was not an easy lord to deal with!
King Yong was defeated again and again under the hands of the prince, which seemed to indicate that the prince's position in the East Palace was unbreakable.
But a few days ago, the emperor's decree brought about an extremely subtle change in the situation.
Although His Majesty the Emperor did not say it explicitly, his words seemed to be protecting His Royal Highness King Yong, which suddenly made the situation a little elusive again.
But despite this, everyone knows that the prince is not a person who will suffer, and he will inevitably react to this matter.
But what they didn't expect was that the prince's counterattack came so fast and so fiercely, directly hitting the seven inches of His Royal Highness King Yong!
You know, counting up, His Royal Highness King Yong is now twenty years old, and the emperor's will a few days ago clearly gave him a word!
In any case, Li Xian can be regarded as an adult, not a child anymore.
Then according to the system, except for the prince, all adult princes cannot stay in Chang'an, but go to the country of fiefdoms!
I have to say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's move is really accurate, no matter what kind of thoughts King Yong has in his heart, as long as he is driven out of Chang'an City, everything will naturally be over!
"Who instructed you to do this? Does the crown prince still take me and the queen in his eyes? ”
Li Zhi's tone was very angry, which everyone could hear, and there was a little more worry in his eyes when he looked at the prince.
Although this trick seems to be wonderful, you must know that rules are just rules after all.
In fact, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, this rule has not been enforced, far away from the original His Majesty Taizong, not only the country of the unfounded, but even once served as the king of Qin as the Shangshu Ling.
More recently, Li Zhi's elder brothers, Li Ke, King of Wu, and Li Tai, King of Wei, have not followed the rules of the country!
Up to now, although the sons of Empress Wu and Li Zhi have all been crowned kings, none of them have gone to the fiefdom, and it is not that no one mentioned this matter at the beginning, but they were all rejected by the emperor without exception!
Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has brought up this matter again, although it can be regarded as justifiable.
But looking at the look of the emperor and queen, I know that this matter is not so simple...... (To be continued.) )
