Chapter 119: Lustful
"This Xiao Qu is sick, why don't you let me worry about it like this!"
Li Longji said this sentence quite angrily, which made Yang Guifei on the side stunned, she also heard Gao Lishi's words just now, how can this matter be blamed on the auxiliary ministers?
"San Lang, the auxiliary ministers are not here to ......" Yang Guifei helped Li Longji to sit down on the sofa that Xiao Qu gave them, because for the time being, they couldn't make springs and sponges, and the ebony sofa was covered with two thick tiger skins.
Yang Guifei hesitated for two or three seconds and whispered; "If it weren't for the people behind him secretly provoking and deliberately shooting He Niangzi with crossbow arrows, how could the little Taoist priest accidentally cut off Prince Hui's ear?"
Li Longji waved his hand, sighed again, looked at the outside that was still snowing, and said quietly: "Yuhuan, you don't understand, I didn't say this, I think this Xiao Qu's illness is really ......."
Li Longji opened his mouth twice, but the words still didn't come out in the end, but his face was a little ugly. Gao Lishi on the side understood at once, and his face was gloomy.
Yang Guifei has been favored by the six palaces over the years, and the resonance of beauty and art, as well as the mutual need for emotion, are naturally the most important reasons, but at the same time, she is also an empathetic interpretation flower.
In the past, whenever Li Longji had any thoughts, Yang Guifei could have a clear mind and know clearly, but Li Longji's attitude towards Xiao Quai's illness made her unable to understand anything.
Yang Guifei also frowned, and said suspiciously: "Yuhuan doesn't understand, San Lang said that he understands me." ”
Li Longji listened to Yang Guifei's soft words, and his eyes were gently opposite her clear starry eyes, and his heart suddenly softened. The heart is jade ring, ice and snow are smart. Be empathetic. But when it comes to politics, I don't understand it at all.
That's fine. That Xiao went to illness and recognized Yuhuan as his sister, and Yuhuan has always been close to him and has a lot of maintenance. If she didn't explain it to Yuhuan clearly, she was afraid that this problem would always bother her.
Li Longji was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke: "How can I not know, this matter is no wonder to the auxiliary ministers, it must be that the party Xiang Qiang envoy sent someone to secretly manipulate them, and they provoked the prince to go back to the auxiliary ministers to find the auxiliary ministers." In order to set up one more enemy for the auxiliary ministers.
Later, the prince of Hui was restrained by the Taoist priest Louguan, and seeing that things would soon calm down, the party Xiang Qiang thief was naturally unwilling to fail, so he secretly shot He Xiaoniang with a crossbow arrow, in order to let the subordinates of the auxiliary minister kill the prince of Hui. I can't see such a subtle trick ......?"
"Then how can Saburo say that the auxiliary minister won't let you worry?"
Li Longji was stunned and said, "I said that the auxiliary minister didn't let me worry, because he was too smart and capable. You see, nothing can stop him.
Dang Xiang Qiang designed to harm him in this way. The situation could get out of control at any time, but as soon as he came, he stabilized the situation in an instant, and in less than half an hour, he found out the thief who secretly released the cold arrow.
How can he be relieved of his worries? ”
Yang Guifei's eyes widened, and she looked at Li Longji with her mouth open and a little blank.
Li Longji smiled: "Let's just say that this time he went to Youzhou, I don't really care how many Hu people he killed, as the auxiliary minister himself said, there is the power of this great victory in the river, and then there is his great military exploits of breaking the Liuzhou Hu and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of Dangxiang Qiang with 2,000 soldiers and horses."
I also forgive these subordinate tribes for not daring to rebel, fearing power but not virtue! I can take this opportunity to compile the household names of Youzhou and Dangxiang Baqiang into the people, turn the land of the river meanders into the land of kings, and send Tang officials to manage it. The assistant ministers have thought of everything for me, and they have calculated it.
But, Yuhuan, I didn't ask him to do all this, I just asked him to go to Youzhou to capture the snake tooth rebel Kang Shennu alive and sacrifice it to His Majesty, that's all!
But as for the auxiliary ministers, he made his own decisions, first cut and then played, and took the power I gave him to do so much at once. And when he's done, I'll have to follow the route he's designed to continue.
Yuhuan, you say, isn't this for him to control me? Isn't such a courtier terrible? ”
Li Longji said carefully, and Yang Guifei finally understood what Li Longji meant by this uneasy.
"San Lang ......", Yang Guifei, who vaguely understood, didn't know what to say at this time.
"The assistant minister is just too different and unpredictable." Li Longji sighed slightly, and his tone was low; "Before the auxiliary ministers, no matter what kind of character, I can understand it, Yao Chongji changes, Song Jing is upright, Zhang is talented but selfish, Zhang Jiuling is arrogant and stubborn......
Even if Li Linfu is jealous of his ability and loves power like his life, I can also understand what he wants to do, such as still holding on to Wei Jian's case, in order to suppress the prince.
What these people are going to do, what their purpose is, and how things will develop in the future, I know and can foresee. Not only that, but whatever these people do, they are ultimately in my hands.
Only this auxiliary minister, everything he has done, I can't see through it, I can't understand it. It's just that I can't see through it, I can't control it yet, it's restricted by him, and he can always surprise him with many things.
These alone are enough to make me feel uneasy, but he is still so capable and capable, you look at him, only 2,000 troops and horses have broken so many and so many Liuzhou Hu and Dangxiang Qiang soldiers and horses;
Dang Xiangqiang wanted to frame him, and he easily found out the culprit behind the scenes. He's just too smart, and he won't lose at all...... If he had let people seize the handle this time, I would have been more relieved, but he ......"
Li Longji looked sad, but Yang Guifei was completely stunned, and only said after a while: "San Lang, why don't I go to him and explain this, so that he doesn't want to do this." Whatever Saburo tells him to do, he does? ”
Li Longji squeezed Yang Guifei's hand in his hand, rubbed it gently, and said with a wry smile: "What do you say I should do with him?" Will you reward him or punish him? Go and say, 'Is it easy to say this?' Hopefully, he will be aware of this problem and make a difference. ”
There was silence in the Zichen Palace, and after a while, Li Longji said to Gao Lishi: "Tell the auxiliary ministers not to enter the palace to restore their lives, you can go to Haosheng to appease the prince of Hui." Inform the courtiers that tomorrow morning will be the court. ”
Gao Lishi hurriedly received the order to prepare to go out, but Li Longji stopped him again and said, "Call Li Xiangguo, Doctor Yang, King Dongping, King Wuwei and others to enter the palace to discuss matters; Also, I can't go and tell the assistant minister what I just said. ”
At the same time, Xiao Qubing had already entered the city with the counterinsurgency army, and the Feilong Forbidden Army and the Anxi Cavalry returned to the Daming Palace and the camp outside the Kaiyuan Gate respectively.
Xiao Qubing personally sent He Ke'er back to He Mansion in Anyefang, and when he was about to go to Daming Palace, Sun Liu rushed to the scene with two flying dragon forbidden soldiers, saying that His Majesty took pity on his military fatigue and let him not have to enter the palace to resume his life, so that he could rest and rest tomorrow morning.
Xiao Quzhi frowned, pulled Sun Liu aside, and then he told Xiao Quzhi about the emperor's arrangement, let Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, An Lushan, Gao Xianzhi and others enter the palace to discuss matters, and secretly told Xiao Quai, and told himself that there might be big trouble this time, telling him to be mentally prepared.
Xiao Qubing thanked him repeatedly, after the two said goodbye, Xiao Qubing returned to Xiao's house in Qinrenfang, several subordinates were already waiting there, after entering the house, I saw a Taoist scribe pacing back and forth inside, Xiao Qubing smiled happily: "Changyuan, are you waiting for me here?" ”
Li Mi suddenly turned around, saw Xiao Quai, and said in a low voice and eagerly: "Auxiliary minister, do you know that a catastrophe is coming?" ”
Lu Yi, Du Fu and the others looked at each other, Xiao Quzhi also frowned, waved his hand to let everyone sit down in turn, and arranged for guards outside, and then said: "Changyuan, why do you say this?" ”
Li Mi glanced at everyone lightly, frowned and said, "Don't you know that Your Majesty already has a jealous heart and even suspicion of you?" ”
Xiao Quzhi said: "I naturally know this." ”
"Then why are you so bold and reckless in Youzhou and Dang Xiang Baqiang? Cool? Your Majesty just asked you to eradicate the snake tooth rebellion and capture Kang Shennu alive, but you made such a big move. ”
Xiao Quzhi smiled bitterly: "Who would have thought that Kang Shennu would have an authentic way, Xiao Qi went to chase it, and was almost killed by Xiang Baqiang of the Snake Tooth Rebel United Party, how can I not deter them?" The rest of the story is also a matter of course. ”
Li Mi said in a hurry; "But, however well your reasons may be, Your Majesty will not think so. Your Majesty will feel that he can't command you, he can't control you. Don't you know that our majesty is a powerful emperor, and everything he likes is under his control.
For example, he deliberately indulged Li Linfu to attack the prince, but at a critical moment, Li Linfu could never put the prince to death, so he could pinch Li Linfu and the prince, as well as the two forces behind the two of them, in the palm of his hand, knead them at will, and control everything.
However, only you, the assistant minister, he can't control you, you are guilty of the emperor's taboo. He is still only suspicious and jealous of you, and if you continue like this, I am afraid that in the end, when His Majesty loses patience, he will want to get rid of you. ”
Xiao Qu was embarrassed, he only knew that Li Longji didn't trust him, and he was afraid of himself, but he didn't expect the matter to be so serious, so he hurriedly asked: "That Changyuan, you are waiting here on purpose, but you have a plan to teach me?" ”
Li Mi didn't think about it, so he blurted out: "Two ways, one is that you want to defile yourself, in the past, Han Gaozu drove the expedition and sent Xiao He to watch the house, Han Gaozu was not at ease with Xiao He, and sent people to find out what the prime minister was doing every day, and found that Xiao He was conscientious, serious, and prestigious, and became more and more uneasy."
At that time, Xiao He committed the taboo of Han Gaozu and was almost removed, but fortunately, Xiao He finally accepted the suggestion and began to defile himself, wantonly seized land among the people, and also lent usury to discredit himself, which made Han Gaozu suspicious.
The first emperor attacked Chu, and Wang Jian also defiled himself by constantly asking for money from the fields, so that the first emperor could rest assured; The former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was suspicious of Emperor Gaozu, so Gaozu defiled himself by drinking and taking bribes, so as to save his life. ”
Xiao Quzhi smiled bitterly: "How do you think Changyuan should defile myself?" ”
"Greedy for money and lustful, oppressive of good people, asking for bribes, accepting bribes, and even fighting a losing battle."
"Well, you can't defeat the war and oppress the good people, can you do it to oppress the officials?"
Li Mi thought for a while and said, "It's okay, but the best and easiest way is to be lustful, they all say that the young man is in lust, didn't Your Majesty give you ten beauties?" Take them all! ”
Xiao Qu was stunned, and scolded in his heart, okay, you are an old man, give me such an idea, aren't you afraid that I will die?
"Isn't it okay?" (To be continued.) )
