Zhang Xun sighed and said: "Your Majesty also has Your Majesty's difficulties, after all, it is not easy to cover the coffin, and it is not easy to change it; And An Lushan had not raised troops when he died, and the Tang Dynasty had been peaceful for a long time, so that the people of the world knew that such a disaster had almost happened, but it was not a good thing. Later, His Majesty did not continue to pursue the rebellion of the Jingsai Army, and Wei Chen thought it was strange in the past, but now he knows what the reason is. Kill the rebel without hesitating his life, they are the loyalty of my Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Heng nodded, also with a sigh.

In that battle, most of the Jingsai soldiers were lost, Gao Wenyuan and Yan Zhenqing calmly died, and now the two are still worshiped as saints by the local people. In the final analysis, the royal family can't stand these loyal courtiers, but he can't do anything to change this matter.

What Chen Xuanli said today is really shocking. The prosperous Tang Dynasty, all countries come to the dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has been stable for so many years, who would have thought that there would be such a big crisis in secret.

After leaning on the back of the chair with his eyes closed and thinking for a long time, Li Heng gradually calmed down, then opened his eyes and looked at Chen Xuanli and said, "Chen Qing, who else knows these things?" ”

Chen Xuanli said: "These things were found out by Lijingmen, and some people in Lijingmen should know." His Majesty only mentioned some of them to me, and did not go into details. But there should be one more person who knows, that is Ma Lan, Ma Renjie! ”

"Ma Renjie?" Li Heng frowned slightly.

"Exactly." Chen Xuanli nodded, "Your Majesty told me that long before Lijingmen and General Gao found out the truth of the matter, the soldiers of the Jingsai Army who participated in the ambush of An Lushan were secretly given a bereavement of one hundred and fifty yuan regardless of life or death. And it was Ma Renjie who gave money privately. Later, the Jingsai soldiers who fled into the mountains to take refuge also fled to Anxi. was also included in Ma Renjie's subordinates. Ma Renjie did so. Naturally, he knew that An Lushan was indeed a thief. ”

"Your Majesty said that Ma Renjie is the son of Ma Shaobao after all, and after being a loyal minister, he privately comforted the Jingsai Army, although he did not change his habits as a ranger, but it made people see his loyalty."

"Ma Renjie!" Li Heng let out a long breath and slowly leaned back in his chair.

These days, he and Zhang Xun are talking about this person every day. They all believed in Ma Renjie's loyalty. But they are also doing their best to guard against this person.

And now, Chen Xuanli's words have added some evidence to Ma Renjie's loyalty.

"Chen Qing, how did Ma Renjie know that An Lushan was going to rebel?"

Chen Xuanli shook his head and said, "This old minister doesn't know, and His Majesty didn't say it that day." However, Yang Guozhong, Yan Zhenqing, and Gao Wenyuan can all be sure that An Lushan wants to rebel, and it is common for Ma Renjie to know. As for whether he only found out before An Lushan's death or after his death, this old minister didn't know, and His Majesty didn't say much to me. ”

Li Heng nodded slowly. Some of Ma Renjie's means. He's heard about it, too. After all, he is not an ordinary person, and it is normal to be able to know the truth.

An Lushan at the beginning. The people of Chang'an all believed Yang Zhao's words and thought that An Lushan was indeed rebellious. Yang Zhao ordered Bian Lingcheng to assassinate An Lushan, but was rescued by Ma Renjie, when everyone regarded Yang Zhao as a loyal minister, Yang Zhao was demoted to the south of the sword, and Ma Renjie was denounced as a traitor and a villain.

However, there is such a thing secretly, and it is obvious that Ma Renjie also knew about it afterwards, although this behavior is reckless, but it also shows that he is not selfish.

……

"So, what about Lijingmen? has been the prince for so many years, and he didn't know that Lijingmen really existed. Originally, Lone thought that Lijingmen was just a legend. After pondering for a long time, Li Heng asked again.

Chen Xuanli said: "Lijingmen is in the hands of General Gao, and he is only loyal to His Majesty. What His Majesty said that day, Lijing Gate had not been used for decades, and it was only reused after An Lushan's death, and it was normal for His Highness not to know. ”

Li Heng nodded: "Find the people from Lijingmen, and ask them something." ”

“……”

Chen Xuanli twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, this matter is embarrassing for the old minister." Lao Chen is just the general of the Longwu Army, and the people in Lijingmen are ministers, under the jurisdiction of General Gao, where did Lao Chen go to find people from Lijingmen? Even His Highness went to find it himself, and I am afraid that he will not be able to find it. Their rule is to obey the orders of the Son of Heaven alone, and now His Highness is still the status of the prince......"

Li Heng waved his hand and motioned for Chen Xuanli not to speak.

In the legend of Lijingmen, there is indeed such a rule. However, in order to know these things, you must not go to the throne.

Zhang Xun frowned and pondered for a long time, then spoke: "Old General Chen, according to what you said, the person who burned down the Persian Temple that day should be the person from Lijingmen under General Gao of the Inner Palace." ”

Li Heng nodded, but saw Chen Xuanli shake his head and said, "No." ”

"Isn't it?" Li Heng frowned, "It's not Lijingmen, then who did it?" ”

"Listen to the meaning of Your Majesty's words, it wasn't General Gao's subordinates who did it." Chen Xuanli said, "As for who did it, Your Majesty didn't tell me that day." However, two major events occurred in a row that day, one was that Chen Xilie was killed all over the door, and the other was that the Persian temple was burned, and dozens of bones were found in the fire. His Majesty told me that these two things are related, and that it is the same people who killed Chen Xilie's entire family and burned down the Persian Temple. As for who it was, His Majesty did not say. ”

Li Heng remembered the events of that day, frowned and said: "The killing of Chen Xiang's family is also an unsolved case, everyone says that Yang Zhao did it, but there is no evidence, I didn't expect that these two things are still related, so Yang Zhao is behind the black pot......"

"Your Highness, Chen Xilie, that thief, you don't deserve to call him Chen Xiang." Chen Xuanli said in a deep voice, "His whole family was killed that day, but His Majesty applauded, if it wasn't for the fact that he was hiding people's eyes, he wouldn't even want to give him the mourning honor behind him!" This dog thief has a deep collusion with the rebels of the Persian Temple, and he is also a traitor. ”

"......" Li Heng was shocked when he heard this, the dignified prime minister of the Tang Dynasty would collude with the rebels of the Persian Temple?

Zhang Xun said solemnly: "Your Majesty, Weichen remembers, that day, the Persian prince Mu Kun asked to reopen the Persian Governor's Mansion, and it seems that he took the path of Chen Xilie. The Persian Temple is a place where traitors gather, and Chen Xilie is also undoubtedly rebellious. ”

Li Heng was silent for a long time. Shook his head helplessly and said, "The dignified Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty." There is even some collusion with the traitor! He is already a very good minister. What is he doing this? Zhang Qing, Chen Qing, and now Lone also feels that this interception of the messenger should be done by the remnants of the Persian Temple. - Even important ministers such as Chen Xilie will collude with the Persians, and now above this court, is there no other minister of the Persian temple and a party? Lonely, don't believe it! ”

Zhang Xun and Chen Xuanli were shocked when they heard this. The two looked into Li Heng's gaze. It's all a little more respectful.

is worthy of being a dragon, the prince has always given people the feeling of being stable and benevolent, but he didn't expect to be a scheming person, and he found the key to the matter at once.

Since there has been such a thing as the remnants of the Persian Temple intercepting the messenger of Chang'an, it means that the Persian Temple has not been wiped out and is still continuing to operate. Even Chen Xilie, the left minister, will collude with the Persian Temple, how can there be no eyes and ears of the Persian Temple above the court!

This was an extremely simple matter, but it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself who first thought of it. Obviously, while he was shocked, his mind was not confused.

Li Heng noticed the difference in the eyes of the two ministers, but his expressions did not change much. Leaning back in the chair, he said in a deep voice: "Although there is no very basis, things can be guessed seventy or eighty." This time. It should have been done by the remnants of the Persian temple. - Hehe, looking at his handwriting, it may not be just the remnants, but I am afraid that the remnants of the Persian Temple are still very small! Zhang Qing, you come to tell Gu, what does the Persian Temple want to do? How to deal with loneliness now? ”

Zhang Xun is also a quick-thinking person, and when he heard this, he pondered slightly, and slowly spoke: "Your Highness, since Your Majesty has said that the purpose of the Persian Temple is to overthrow the Tang Dynasty artifact, the purpose of these thieves will not change, and there is no doubt that they will watch the artifact." This time, they deliberately intercepted His Highness's messenger in the west of the moraine, which clearly means that the messenger has not yet arrived in the west of the moraine, and they already know about it. In other words, there must be their comrades in Chang'an City. For today's plan, we should first find out their comrades in Chang'an City and the court, and then catch them all. ”

Li Heng nodded: "Go on." ”

Zhang Xun said: "The reason why they intercepted the messenger is nothing more than not letting His Highness know the situation in Tingzhou. Many rumors are related to Tingzhou, but they act like this, in the opinion of Wei Chen, I am afraid that these rumors are from these people. Find out the same party, Miki will definitely have something, and then we will know if this is the case. ”

"If the rumors were indeed spread by them, they acted like this, in order to make my Tang Dynasty monarchs suspicious, and even the world was in chaos, they could take advantage of the fire. If this is the case, after clearing the remnants of the Persian Temple, the doubts will naturally disappear and the world will be stable. ”

Li Heng nodded: "In this way, if the rumors really come from the Persian Temple, then Your Majesty's affairs in Tingzhou, and the mutiny in Tingzhou, are all groundless?" Are they all the means used by the Persian Temple in order to mess with my Tang Dynasty? ”

Zhang Xun said in a deep voice: "Weichen thinks that the rumors are from the Persian Temple may be very large, but this matter must be verified before it can be determined. As for the truth or falsity of the two rumors...... Even if the rumors are indeed from the Persian temple, these two things may not be false! ”

Li Heng's eyes froze: "Push the boat down the river?" ”

Zhang Xun nodded: "Weichen thinks it's very likely." ”

Li Heng nodded slowly: "If this is the case, this Persian Temple can also be regarded as talented." ——In today's plan, it should be to purge the remnants of the Persian temple in Chang'an City first, right? ”

Zhang Xun nodded: "If you catch the remnants of the Persian Temple, you can see the clouds and see the sun at a glance." Otherwise, His Highness and Weichen will be like being in the clouds, and if they are not careful, they will make mistakes. His Royal Highness is now in charge of the Tang Dynasty on behalf of His Majesty, and once he makes a mistake, he is afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance to make up for it, but it will give the rest of the Persian Temple an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Li Heng nodded heavily.

Now, although the clue has been grasped, everything is speculation, and it is basically certain, that is, the existence of the remnants of the Persian Temple, and the matter of intercepting the messenger is related to the remnants of the Persian Temple. As for what the Persian temple can achieve by doing this, and what will be the future, everything is unknown.

Therefore, the first task is naturally to eliminate the remnants of the Persian temple in the court and in Chang'an City, in order to find out the truth of the matter and the purpose of the Persian temple.
