Chapter 297: The so-called Wolong
Chang'an City is complicated!
It was more complicated than ever, and the things in the Xuanzheng Palace, under the impetus of people with good intentions, soon spread all over Chang'an City, and the originally clear situation in the court and China became a little more elusive under the emperor's clear protection.
Yongwangfu received more and more greetings, but in contrast, the East Palace gradually became less crowded, and even among the many officials who visited Yongwangfu, there were many who were originally very close to the prince.
And just when Li Xian felt more and more proud, Li Hong seemed quite calm, and he didn't even have any way to deal with this situation, which made many people extremely puzzled.
Dai Zhide has been to the East Palace, Zhang Wenqian has also been to the East Palace, and even Hao Chujun has made a special trip to the East Palace, but without exception, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince received him warmly, these bigwigs did not get any valuable news, so they could only leave the East Palace with a sad face.
And the most strange thing about the wind direction in the court is that Xu Jingzong, the servant of the door, personally visited the Yongwang Mansion, and according to the two of them talked for half an hour, Xu Jingzong left with some satisfaction.
What's even more surprising is that there is news that Xu Shizhong had just come out of the palace before he arrived at Yongwang's Mansion, and all of a sudden, the rumors in Chang'an City became more and more complicated.
"Your Highness, what did Xu Shizhong say?"
In King Yong's mansion, a man in Tsing Yi sat opposite Li Xian with a folding fan in his hand, and the tea in front of him was still warm, apparently someone had just left.
And this position is just where Xu Jingzong sits......
"Didn't say anything!"
Li Xian's face was a little cold, and he shook his head lightly and said.
"This old fox has been talking to this king about the customs of Chang'an for half an hour, but he doesn't mention the current situation of the court, as if he came to chat with this king today!"
In fact, when he got the news today that Xu Jingzong was coming to visit, Li Xian was happy for a long time, but he didn't expect that after this old thing came in, he didn't say anything, and began to chat.
"Hehe, Xu Shizhong, as a subordinate servant, joined the political affairs hall, and is busy with government affairs on weekdays, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not be able to invite him, so how can he take time out to chat with His Highness?"
The man in Tsing Yi put down the folding fan and said with a chuckle.
The tone was very calm, but it made Li Xian's face turn red for a while.
"Sir, how could this king lie to you?"
Li Xian's tone was a little empty-hearted, because even he didn't believe in this matter, Xu Jingzong came to his mansion with such fanfare, just to have a few sips of tea?
Who will believe it?
But that's the truth of the matter! made Li Xian a little crying and laughing.
"Your Highness has misunderstood! A certain family naturally believes in His Highness! ”
The man in Tsing Yi restrained the smile on his face and said.
After a pause, he continued.
"But no matter whose ears this matter reaches, I'm afraid others won't believe it, especially since Xu Shizhong just came out of the palace and rushed to His Royal Highness's mansion.
If it falls into the eyes of those who have a heart, it will inevitably cause countless suspicions......"
For some reason, the face of the man in Tsing Yi was a little solemn.
And Li Xian also vaguely realized at the moment, and said with a little uncertainty.
"Mr. means ......"
"After His Highness's statement in the Xuanzheng Hall this time, I'm afraid Your Majesty has really made up his mind to start this big chess game!"
The man in Tsing Yi sat upright, his brows furrowed slightly, and his voice was extremely cautious.
"Last time, a certain family and His Royal Highness had talked about this matter, and now it has been fulfilled, that day in the Xuanzheng Palace, His Majesty so deliberately protected His Royal Highness, and now Xu Shizhong specially visited the Yongwang Mansion, that is, His Majesty is building momentum for His Royal Highness!"
Indeed, that day in the Xuanzheng Palace, Li Zhi seemed to be defending Li Xian everywhere, even to the extent of protection, first refuting Li Hong fiercely, and then allowing Li Xian's performance, even in such a major matter as the feudal domain, he also listened to Li Xian's own opinions.
This pile, in the eyes of those who have a heart, can see a little different meaning......
"Could it be that Xu Jingzong came over today, really at the behest of his father?"
Li Xian's expression was a little excited, and he asked.
"Your Highness, don't forget, who is Xu Shizhong? The queen's confidant, when he goes to His Royal Highness's mansion at this moment, he will be regarded as the queen's mother to a large extent! ”
The man in Tsing Yi frowned slightly and continued to speak.
But this made Li Xian a little puzzled.
"The queen mother? How is this possible? ”
"Your Highness, don't worry, in fact, this may not be the meaning of the queen's mother, but the wonderful thing is that everyone will think that this is the meaning of the queen's mother, Your Majesty's move is really exquisite!"
The man in Tsing Yi exclaimed, and there was a little more admiration in his tone.
"In this way, Your Majesty has not clearly expressed his attitude, but he has achieved the purpose of building momentum for His Highness, as the so-called advance can be attacked and retreated, no matter what situation arises, Your Majesty can control it!"
"So, Xu Jingzong came over today, really just to chat?"
Li Xian's mood was a little depressed, he thought that he could take this opportunity to have a relationship with Xu Jingzong, you must know that this old guy's foundation in the court is deeper than Li Yifu, and since the fall of Li Yifu on his side, there is basically no figure that can be handled, there is only one Liu Renliang, who is still excluded in the political hall.
Every time he thought of this, Li Xian hated Li Yifu, a bastard, for leaving such a handle that he almost had an accident!
The man in Tsing Yi nodded, but there was a little more worry on his face.
"Your Highness, although the east wind is here here today, it can be seen from Xu Shizhong's attitude that most of the senior officials in the court are still not optimistic about His Highness.
Otherwise, Xu Shizhong would not be so cold to His Royal Highness this time, and if a certain family is not mistaken, these days, although there are a lot of worship posts received by King Yong's Mansion, most of them are people who are not reused, I am afraid that it will not be of much help to His Highness! ”
"These short-sighted people!"
Li Xian knocked on the table heavily, with a little depression in his tone, it was obvious that what the man in Tsing Yi said was also clear in his heart.
"One day, this king will let them know that this king is a hundred times stronger than that cowardly prince!"
Seeing this scene, the man in Tsing Yi shook his head imperceptibly and spoke.
"Your Highness, don't worry, now is a good time, and the selection of candidates for the Eastern Crusade is a good opportunity for Your Highness......"
"Oh? How to say? ”
Li Xian's face was slightly puzzled, and he asked.
"As long as I wait like this......"
The man in Tsing Yi got up and leaned into Li Xian's ear and whispered something, but then Li Xian's face changed, and a smile appeared.
"Mr. is to this king, what Wolong is to Liu Bei!" (To be continued.) )
