When he got the news of Li Xian's depose, Li Xian had just returned to Chang'an City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In fact, along the way, he has always been well aware of Li Xian's case, but all of this is secretly manipulated by the Empress Wu, even if he is clear about all this, he has no way, because this is not something he can interfere with if he wants to, now is a sensitive period, he can't make senseless sacrifices, even if it is the most ordinary official.

What's more, he is now thinking about succeeding the crown prince and being in the East Palace, how can he affect his own plans because of other people's affairs? This is a major event that he has been planning for nearly 20 years, and he has made too many sacrifices for this, how can he easily cause trouble?

Besides, the relationship between himself and the crown prince Li Xian was not very good, although it eased later, but after all, it was only a temporary alliance, not a real brotherhood, the fight between them has always exceeded affection, Li Xian's current result is actually what Li Xian expects, in other words, Li Xian's current encounter is not so much self-inflicted, but rather Li Xian's situation.

Now that he has become the prince, Li Xian knows that the power behind him should be exposed, and he must not be able to conceal it, but if he can conceal it, Li Xian will naturally not be in a hurry to expose it, because he knows deeply that the prince is nothing in the goal he is pursuing, and it can only be said to be a stepping stone, because there are already two princes in front of him who have been killed by the Empress Wu before and after, although his brain is slightly more flexible, and his heart is ruthless and black enough, but he will inevitably encounter the same crisis, revealing all his hole cards in such a situation, Naturally, it is a very unwise behavior, and sometimes it is often this hidden hole card that is the medicine for his resurrection and the key to reversing the situation.

Therefore, Li Xian left some of the people under his command who had worked so hard to encircle them in the frontier so that they could play a greater role in the future.

For example, Lou Shide and Wang Xiaojie.

Lou Shide is now just a very inconspicuous literati, but Li Xian knows that this person is very good at doing things, the protagonist of the famous allusion in history "spit on himself" is this, he is also quite discerning in military affairs, and will be the future prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, a famous general, the most important point is that this person looks exquisite on the surface, no one is willing to offend, but he is very principled, a typical character with a circle on the outside and a square on the inside, after a long time of cooperation with Li Xian, Lou Shide has long been dead to him, especially when Li Xian was abolished, when he will be made the crown prince, I believe that his loyalty to himself will be even higher.

If such a person is tied to his side, he is really tyrannical, and if he is left on the frontier, he will bring himself a legion in the future!

In addition to Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie is also a figure that Li Xian strives for, after the last siege relief, the grace of saving life, and after the battle with the Garqin Mausoleum, Wang Xiaojie has long admired Li Xian, although he did not directly express his loyalty, but Li Xian knew that this honest and loyal minister would definitely stand on his side without hesitation when he broke with the Empress Wu in the future.

As for Wang Fangyi, Li Xian directly entrusted his confidants and handed over a set of illustrated catalogues of gunpowder and firearms production that he had designed in the military camp these days to Wang Fangyi, and asked him to secretly conduct experiments in the production of gunpowder and gunpowder weapons, and secretly allocated a large number of craftsmen and property as talents and material support for experiments and large-scale production in the future.

"Although I will become the crown prince, but all the power is in the hands of the queen mother, the general may suffer some grievances in the future, but you must firmly believe that I will eventually succeed, and your forbearance will eventually wait for a bright future for yourself, Xiao Wang, you will not forget all this you have done, so many sacrifices you have made, no matter at any time, please remember that as long as you live, there is hope for everything."

Li Xian withdrew all the attendants when he left, held Wang Fangyi's hand tightly, and said such a solemn expression, Wang Fangyi also nodded solemnly, reassuring Li Xian, he knew what to do, because he had Li Xian, it was equivalent to having hope, so no matter what the situation, he would definitely persevere.

The war was over, Empress Wu was very happy, and immediately passed Gaozong's decree to worship the great hero Heiya Changzhi as General Zuo Wuwei, the ambassador of the Heyuan Army, and Lou Shide had made a lot of contributions, but for some reason it was not used by Li Xian, so the Empress Wu personally reported his merits and promoted him to be the deputy envoy of the Heyuan Army; In addition, Pei Xingjian was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but he did not pay homage to the prime minister, because Pei Yan thought that the surrender of the Turkic Ashina and others was not because of Pei Xingjian's more than 10,000 people, but because he was afraid of Cheng Wuting's might, so he vigorously promoted Cheng Wuting, so Empress Wu pushed the boat down the river, worshiped Cheng Wuting as the general of Zuo Wuwei, and was named the prince of Pingyuan County.

Of course, other generals were also promoted, Wang Fangyi was worshiped as the governor of Xiazhou, Tang Xiujing was still the protector of Anxi, and then the title was named the prince of Jiuquan.

There were also 200 palace guards under Li Xian's command who were promoted, but these people were scattered into the sixteen guards again, and few of them continued to stay in Li Xian's palace, the intention was obvious, that is, to dismantle the forces around Li Xian, so as not to think that Li Xian was a confidant and threaten the military queen.

Although the soldiers were very dissatisfied with this, Li Xian did not have the slightest complaint to persuade them to accept the edict, and prepared a lot of gifts for each soldier, and at the same time solemnly said: "Xiao Wang knows that you are very reluctant, but your departure is inevitable, now the prince plotted rebellion, was expelled from the East Palace, in this sensitive period, if Xiao Wang continues to hold the military power, it will not be conducive to the country's social welfare, so Xiao Wang will inevitably be relieved of his military duties as soon as he returns to Beijing. The court should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, how can it continue to protect Xiao Wang? If outsiders know about this, they will inevitably scold Xiao Wang for hiding heroes and having bad intentions. In fact, then again, although we are separated, as long as our hearts are together, no one can really separate you and me, just like the poem that Xiao Wang made before, there are confidants in the sea, and the ends of the world are like neighbors. Hehe, if you really miss Xiao Wang, then wait until after taking office, train the soldiers well, lead the troops to fight, and improve the combat power of my Tang Dynasty, and then Xiao Wang will come to see which soldier is the most heroic and good at fighting! ”

Li Xian's words are undoubtedly the greatest encouragement to these 200 soldiers, and I saw that these soldiers all said impassionedly that they would not disappoint Li Xian and guarantee that the soldiers they brought must be the most heroic and good at fighting!

Li Xianyan was naturally relieved when he heard this, as the so-called spark can start a prairie fire, he believed that these 200 people would be dispersed to the Sixteen Guards in the future, and within a few years they would bring out 20,000, 200,000 or even more elite soldiers.
