Eastern capital, Luoyang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the passage of time, the aftermath of Yang Shouwen's burning of the martial arts building gradually disappeared.

In this world, there is no topic that can stay hot forever. This is the capital of God, gathering celebrities from all over the world and gathering Chinese elites. In the center of the world, which is home to millions of people, there are a lot of things that happen every day, and a lot of interesting people come to you. This also makes Luoyang people's horizons wider, wider and richer topics.

Before you know it, the New Year has arrived.

On the third day of the first month, Wu Zetianxia changed the year name for a long time as Dazu, so in the history books, from this day, it was called the first year of Dazu.

The era name has changed, which also represents a new atmosphere.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Wu Zetian suddenly proposed at the court meeting that he wanted to return to Chang'an.

For a time, a monstrous wave was set off in the court. Return to Chang'an? What does this mean? Since the death of Gaozong, Wu Zetian has stayed away from Chang'an and moved the capital to Luoyang. After that, she ascended the throne as the emperor, changed the name of the country to the Great Zhou, and set the capital of Luoyang City.

In a flash, almost ten years have passed.

Wu Zetian lingered in Luoyang and rarely returned to Chang'an, so much so that many people forgot that Chang'an still retained the name of Xijing.

This is so good, why do you suddenly want to go back to Chang'an?

Note that it is to return to Chang'an, not to move to Chang'an...... In other words, in Wu Zetian's eyes, Luoyang is still the imperial capital.

"Since the death of the first emperor, I had to move the capital to Luoyang because of the injury of the scene.

Yesterday, the first emperor dreamed of me, and there were many thoughts in his words, which made me feel deeply guilty. Therefore, I decided to return to Chang'an to accompany the first emperor. I don't know if it's gone, or half a year, or a year. When I was not in Luoyang, the crown prince and prime minister were in charge.

Su Wei, Tang Xiujing, Zhang Cambodia, Cui Xuanwei, Yao Chong, Song Jing, Zhang Shuo, and Yang Zhirou stayed in the Eastern Capital to assist the prince in government affairs. Xiang Wang Dan returned to Xijing with me and swept the tomb of the emperor. I am going to Chang'an here, and I also ask the princes to assist the prince wholeheartedly, not to be slack in political affairs, and not to make the people suffer...... The post of governor of Longyou was temporarily handled by Guo Yuanzhen.

And because of the repeated violations of the border, the border plug was unstable, so the prime minister was appointed as the governor of the state.

The former governor of the state, Zhang Rengan, the governor of the Lingwu Prefecture, coerced and slashed, and must not be lazy, Qin this! ”

With Wu Zetian's edict, the discussion in the court suddenly became less.

The sage has explained very clearly that she has no intention of moving the capital, but only because she dreamed of the first emperor, so she decided to return to Chang'an.

This sounds reasonable, but it doesn't seem to be enough to make people wonder.

However, for those bigwigs who have been in the temple all the year round, they have seen clues from Wu Zetian's series of appointments.

"Your Majesty, I'm dissatisfied with King Xiang!"

In the Taiping Temple, it is full of friends.

In the small Zen room, in addition to Princess Taiping sitting on the main seat, there were six or seven people, sitting on both sides.

Among these people, there are different clothes, there are monks, Taoists, and Confucians.

Among them, Gao Jian also sat aside, frowned and said softly: "Maybe Your Majesty already knows the thoughts of King Xiang, so he took this opportunity to beat." ”

"How so?"

It was a monk who spoke, and his Dharma name was Fazhen.

As soon as Gao Jian's words fell, he immediately asked: "From the perspective of the poor monk, Your Majesty should take the Prime Minister to Chang'an because of his love." Before the crown prince returned, King Xiang accompanied His Majesty. This return to Chang'an is the end of the human road. Your Majesty does not bring the crown prince, but lets the king accompany him, doesn't it show that your majesty attaches great importance to the king of the prime minister? ”

"What do you value to the Prime Minister?"

Gao Jian sneered and said, "I'm afraid it's suspicion that is more important than value." ”

Since returning to Luoyang from Changzhou last year, Gao Jian has been promoted to the rank of Tianguan Shilang for his meritorious work in discovering the treasures of the Yuan Wendu......

It's also interesting to say, among the people who went to Cheung Chau together at the beginning, except for Yang Shouwen and Li Longji, everyone else was promoted. It was precisely because Gao Jian performed well in that operation that he was favored by Princess Taiping.

In addition, Gao Jian and Zhang Shuo and others are friends, and they are also quite famous in Shilin.

When he said this, Princess Taiping couldn't help but stare, and lowered her head into deep thought.

Fa Zhen, now the abbot of Dafuxian Temple, was voted under the Taiping Princess in the early years, and was valued for his strong martial arts and resourcefulness.

But in the past year, Fazhen has clearly felt that Gao Jian's status is already above him.

Therefore, whenever there is a party, he always opposes Gao Jian intentionally or unintentionally. As long as Gao Jian is in favor, he will definitely oppose it.

Watching the two arguing, Princess Taiping showed a tired look.

She waved her hand and motioned for the two to stop talking, then turned to a man next to her and asked, "King Xinxing, what do you think?" ”

This emerging king's name is Li Jin, and he is a son of the Li Tang Sect.

He looked a little weak, so he sat on the sidelines and remained silent.

In terms of seniority, he is the nephew of Princess Taiping, so he speaks a lot more casually, "What Gao Lang said is quite reasonable. ”

"Oh?"

"Auntie, after Yang Shouwen came back from the Western Regions, His Majesty didn't do anything, did he really not know the truth?

Your Majesty is old, and his heart is much softer.

She is now only the two sons of the prince and the king, how can she be ruthless?

Knowing the son is none other than the mother, how shrewd and intelligent your majesty is. How could His Majesty not be aware of the thoughts of the Prime Minister? If it had been ten years earlier, His Majesty would have gone on a killing spree. But now, she has decided to return to the crown prince, and she will not be as decisive as she was back then. In my opinion, His Majesty took King Xiang away in order to take this opportunity to consolidate the crown prince's position......

At the same time, when King Xiang leaves Luoyang, there will inevitably be a bloody storm.

I heard that Mingyan has passed Tongguan and will arrive in Luoyang in the near future. Whose son is Mingyan? His old son single-handedly created the internal guard for His Majesty. Ming Yan had been in Jiannan Province before, and he didn't have much to do with the DPRK and China. When he came back this time, he had to make a stand. At that time, King Xiang is not in Luoyang, and anyone who jumps up and down will definitely die.

I've inquired, that Mingyan is in Shuzhou, but he has the order of the iron-faced judge...... After serving as a judge for three years, thousands of people died at his hands, and his methods can be seen. When such people come back, everyone should be careful. ”

After Li Jin finished speaking, he stopped talking.

And everyone here also closed their mouths one after another.

Princess Taiping nodded, "I didn't understand before, why Your Majesty let Wu Erlang go to Lingzhou.

Now it seems that His Majesty is using the martial arts to monitor the actions of the Prime Minister, laying a certain foundation for the crown prince to ascend the throne in the future.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have already heard the words of the emerging king just now.

From now on, pass on my orders, and be honest......"

When everyone heard this, they answered in unison.

Most of the people in this Zen room are close associates of Princess Taiping, so Princess Taiping naturally won't be too strict, and she comforted her.

Everyone discussed the current situation for a while, and when they saw that Princess Taiping was tired, they took their leave.

"Auntie."

When everyone left, Li Jin stayed.

He said softly: "I heard that the prince intends to make Xue Chuyu the general of Zuo Yulin and take charge of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army?" ”

"What, you have an idea?"

For this nephew, Princess Taiping trusts her very much.

He is a little weak, but his mind is very clear, and Princess Taiping also relies on him.

"Auntie, since the prince wants to rectify the Beiya Forbidden Army, why don't you take the opportunity to recommend a few people over. On the one hand, there are not many people available in the hands of the prince, so he just took this opportunity to show favor to the prince. On the other hand, I think that this Northern Ya Forbidden Army will definitely be very important in the future, and maybe it will surpass the Sixteen Guards of the Southern Ya. In this case, we should have planned earlier. ”

Princess Taiping heard this, pondered for a moment, and then showed a look of deep understanding.

"Is there a suitable candidate for the emerging king?"

"Auntie, I did recruit a warrior last year, who has the courage to be unstoppable and proficient in the art of war.

This person's name is Chang Yuankai, who can open the bow left and right, and is superb in riding and shooting. The aunt can recommend this person to the prince, and she can rely on it in the future. ”

Princess Taiping thought about it and nodded in agreement.

She walked out of the meditation room and walked slowly along the porch with Li Jin, discussing things with him in a low voice as she walked.

At this moment, a person hurriedly walked from outside the door, it was a husky.

Seeing this, Li Jin hurriedly stopped.

The husky walked quickly to Princess Taiping and whispered a few words in her ear.

Princess Taiping's face was obviously stunned for a moment, and then she nodded lightly and waved her hand to signal the husky to retreat. She pursed her lips and turned to look at Li Jin.

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

"The crown prince has just entered the palace and begs Your Majesty to appoint Yang Chenglie to stay in the eastern capital."

"Huh?"

"Your Majesty has agreed, and issued an order, ordering Yang Chenglie to stay in the eastern capital, and pretend to be the general of Zuo Wuwei...... Xinxing King, you are right, the crown prince is about to start fighting back. Next, let's wait and see how it changes, and try to profit from it. (To be continued.) )
