Chapter 55: Request
—— On October 19, the sixteenth year of Tianbao, the imperial court issued an edict to establish Li Jue, the king of Yan, as the crown prince.
Yang Guozhong, the left minister, is the prince's master, the right minister Wei Jiansu is the prince's young master, and Guo Ziyi, the secretary of the military department, is the prince's guest. I don't know what the reason is, Yang Xi also served as the right guard of the East Palace, and together with Shang Wenyi, the left guard of the East Palace, he was in charge of the East Palace Guard. Many other subordinate officials of the East Palace have also changed, and Li Bai, Du Fu, Gao Shi, Wang Wei, and Li Mi, the great talents of the world, have also become the prince's staff.
"Shiro, I believe that all of this is as you wish," After the fierce battle with Yang Xi, Mrs. Qiuguo, who was full of sweat, squeezed the whole person into Yang Xi's arms, and said coquettishly: "You want King Yan to be made the crown prince, and you want all these people you recommend to enter the staff of the East Palace, and now you have finally got your wish." Hehe, my aunt can say I don't know how many good things I said in front of His Majesty, how can you thank me? ”
Yang Xi slapped Mrs. Qiuguo's plump buttocks hard, twisted her breasts again, and said evilly: "Auntie, haven't I been thanking you all this time?" Hee-hee, thank you, were you very comfortable just now? The screaming was so loud that everyone outside the house must have heard it!"
I didn't expect Yang Xi to say it so bluntly, Mrs. Yu Guo felt a little shy, hugged her body tightly against Yang Xi, and said coquettishly: "Shiro, my aunt needs you to accompany me like this all the time, and I am not allowed not to come to see my aunt." If you have anything to ask your aunt to help you with, your aunt will definitely help you do it, okay? ”
"That's good, my aunt is willing to help. How could Shiro refuse!" Of course, Yang Xi agreed, and the two dishonest hands kept caressing Mrs. Qiu's plump body. And pretended to be casual and said: "Auntie, you don't know, recently, Shiro has made some talented people again, and they are not reused by the imperial court now, it is a pity, Shiro wants to use them for the imperial court very much, but now Shiro is humble and light." Your Majesty may not necessarily listen to me and give them reuse, I hope that my aunt will have the opportunity to help talk about it in front of Your Majesty, I don't know if it's good!"
"What's the problem then, when do you give the list to your aunt, and your aunt will try her best to help you say good things in front of Your Majesty."
"That's great!" Yang Xi couldn't help but kiss Mrs. Yu Guo on the face, and the movements of her hands became harder. Mrs. Qiuguo, who was provoked, couldn't help but be emotional again, panting and sticking up.
In the end, Yang Xi lay down, and after enjoying the service of Mrs. Qiu Guo again, he left contentedly.
The weight of Mrs. Qiuguo's speech in front of Li Longji still surprised Yang Xi a little, Li Bai, Du Fu, Gao Shi and others entered the East Palace, he did not talk to Yang Yuhuan. just told Mrs. Qiu Guo that he didn't have great expectations that these people could enter the East Palace, but he didn't expect that through Mrs. Qiuguo's help, the matter turned out to be done. Yang Yuhuan is willing to help, and Mrs. Yu Guo is willing to help him do things. The meaning is very different. Some things Yang Yuhuan may not be convenient to say in front of Li Longji, but Mrs. Yu Guo can.
During the period when Li Longji continued to be emperor. Yang Xi hopes that through the help of these two women, many of his ideas can become reality.
During this time, Li Longji's body was not too comfortable, and he was even more tired of court affairs, most of the time he stayed with Yang Yuhuan, playing music, or composing new songs, Yang Xi had the courage to ask to see Yang Yuhuan a few times, and the two of them stayed together, so that Yang Xi, who had already captured Mrs. Qiu Guo under him and wanted to take advantage of the situation to push Yang Yuhuan down, could not find a chance to start.
Yang Yuhuan had no choice, she could only quietly tell Yang Xi not to worry, she would find a way to create opportunities.
After the crown prince Li Jue was made the crown prince, he also secretly came to visit Yang Xi once, and he came to express his gratitude and reiterate his previous promise. He fully knew that in this matter, the support of the Yang family's forces allowed him to get this opportunity, and he must continue to get the support of the Yang family's forces, as well as the support of Guo Ziyi, a newly promoted magnate, in order to stabilize his crown prince.
His foundation is too shallow, and after becoming the crown prince, he is even more targeted by the public, and he needs more support. Li Jue had no other support, he could only hope for the support of Yang Xi and the forces behind Yang Xi, including Yang Guozhong, Yang Yuhuan, Guo Ziyi, Gao Shi and others. So after he became the prince, he did not show any arrogance in front of Yang Xi, let alone cross the river and tear down the bridge, and continued to repeat his promise.
Yang Xi didn't say too much about Li Jue's promise, he just told Li Jue that after becoming the prince, he hoped that Li Jue could do something to make the supporters not disappointed. Li Jue understood Yang Xi's words into another meaning, and once again assured in person that he would definitely do what he had promised, and he would never break his promise.
Yang Xi, who knew that Li Jue had misunderstood what he meant, didn't explain too much, so let Li Jue misunderstand.
The test of Li Jue is coming soon, after winter, the weather is slowly getting colder, and Li Longji, who is a little chilled, is ready to go to Huaqing Palace to soak in the hot springs to keep out the cold. It is very normal for Li Longji to go to Huaqing Palace to soak in hot springs, every day when the weather is cold, he will go to Huaqing Palace, and he may stay for a few months, or even half a year, but this time, for the first time, Li Longji, who is ready to go to Huaqing Pond to escape the cold, asked Li Ying to supervise the country and handle court affairs on his behalf. Li Longji's decision surprised the ministers of the DPRK and China.
Li Heng has been the crown prince for decades, but there are only a handful of opportunities to deal with court affairs on behalf of the superintendent, as far as Yang Xi knows, there are only two at most, and that is still relatively early, in the past ten years, there has not been a single one. No matter where Li Longji goes, he is in charge of the court in person, or he hands over the affairs of the court to the prime minister of the political affairs hall, and it can be seen from this point that Li Longji's attitude towards Li Heng is present.
But now, the situation is completely different, just a few days after Li Ying was appointed as the crown prince, Li Longji ordered him to take charge of the court and supervise state affairs. Of course, many people immediately understood what Li Longji meant by doing this. It's a sign of trust, but it's also a test.
For Li Jue himself, what he felt was completely his father's test for him, and when he knew that he was going to be in charge of state affairs, he hurriedly ran to Yang Xi to discuss countermeasures.
"Xi'er, my father wants me to be the prisoner of the country when he goes to Huaqing Palace to protect himself from the cold, how is this good?"
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, isn't that very good?" Yang Xi looked puzzled, "The abolished prince has been in power for decades, and there are not a few chances to be imprisoned, you have just been made the crown prince, and Your Majesty will let you act as the eunuch." Your Majesty trusts you so much, you should be happy, why are you so nervous? ”
"This is true of my father's trust, but Xi'er, you also know that my father has never been in contact with major affairs of the court, so he asked me to be the supervisor of the country in a hurry, how can I handle all the affairs of the court?" Li Jue's face was nervous, and he did not hide his panic in front of Yang Xi, "If I disappoint my father in handling affairs this time, maybe my father has the heart of setting up another crown prince again, what should I do?" ”
Seeing Li Jue's appearance, without a little self-confidence, Yang Xi couldn't help sighing, but still comforted: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't worry, Your Majesty will go to Huaqing Palace to let you act as the supervisor of the country, and you will definitely let the ministers who are familiar with court affairs assist you, as long as you ask more questions and ask more advice, I believe that you will soon be familiar with court affairs." Just like me, when I asked for help in Tongguan, I never led the army, didn't I also subdued the generals, and finally led the army to resist the attack of the rebels, there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain, Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't worry too much. ”
After Li Jue glanced at Yang Xi twice, he still put down his identity and asked: "Xi'er, if your father knows your words, Guo Xianggong and Yang Xianggong will all listen, Wei Xianggong is familiar with you, and Gao Shilang is a person you trust very much, as long as you say hello to them, I believe they will not make any stumbling blocks for your father." As a father, I don't hide it from you, I came here today to hope that you can help talk to these people in front of them, so that they can assist me, the prince, in doing things wholeheartedly after His Majesty leaves Beijing. I also hope that you can guide the father in many things, okay? ”
Yang Xi didn't agree immediately, and pretended to be puzzled: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, and the ministers appointed by His Majesty to assist you should have helped you deal with court affairs wholeheartedly, and you can't be lazy, Your Highness asked me to tell them like this, isn't that too much to underestimate their loyalty?" "Looking at the appearance, Li Ying is really not a big thing.
These words made Li Ying angry, but he still asked again unwillingly: "Xi'er, what you just said is right, but my father hopes that he can get along with them when he is the prisoner of the country, and he also hopes that they can teach me, the newly enthroned prince, more than let them laugh and make them feel alienated." And you, Xi'er, will come to you to discuss difficult matters for your father, I hope you can give me an idea then, okay? Xi'er, for his father's new crown prince, in a hurry to act as the prisoner of the country, many things must not be done well, I hope to get your greatest help, you must let your father get through this difficulty. What my father promised you will definitely do, as long as my father passes on the throne to me, I will make you the crown prince as soon as possible and make you the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Xi'er, in the future, the world will belong to our father and son, for our future, you must try to help your father, otherwise Your Majesty is likely to set up another prince. ”
When Li Jue said this, Yang Xi couldn't deliberately make things difficult anymore, and immediately agreed: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't say these things again, my father and father-in-law, Wei Xianggong and Gao Shilang, I will go and talk about it, if there is anything that His Royal Highness is difficult to deal with, and I have ideas, I will definitely tell them bluntly." Please don't worry too much, things are man-made, as long as many things are done, they will be fine. I also hope that Your Highness can do your best to do things, and not let Your Majesty and the ministers down, this is the best time for you to establish your prestige. No matter what, I'll do my best to support you!"
"That's great!" Unexpectedly, Li Jue, who couldn't imagine that Yang Xi's attitude would change like this in an instant, was overjoyed.
But to Li Jue's disappointment, when he pinned his hopes on Yang Xi's help, Yang Xi received an order from Li Longji to accompany him to Huaqing Palace to soak in warm soup.
