said that Li Ang was just using Li Shizhi, not the prince's party. Li Linfu was noncommittal on this point.

He asked people to inquire about Li Ang's details, although he didn't hear that Li Ang and the crown prince Li Heng had any intersections; According to the analysis of the news sent back from Longyou, Li Ang and Wang Zhongsi also seem to be at odds with each other;

Li Ang repeatedly performed miraculous feats in Longyou, but Wang Zhongsi did not give Li Ang any promotion or reward. On the other hand, Wang Zhonghe's treatment of Ge Shuhan and Li Guangbi and others was promoted one after another, and he was rewarded.

These signs can indeed show that Li Ang is not a party of princes, but Li Linfu is not relieved because of this, after all, Li Ang was recommended by Li Shizhi to enter the office, and now he is so eye-catching.

Gongsun Jin saw that Li Linfu was noncommittal, so he continued: "Xianggong, in addition, the lower officials also heard about a past incident about Li Ang and Li Shizhi. ”

"What's the matter? Let's hear it. ”

"Xianggong, do you still remember Li Shizhi's Western Regions strategy of advancing to the saint? At the beginning, Li Shizhi took a fancy to Li Ang's talent and wanted to recruit him as a quick son-in-law of the East Bed, and promoted him as the champion. Li Ang was white at that time, and he must have asked for it if he changed to someone else, but strangely, Li Ang politely rejected Li Shizhi's intention to recruit a son-in-law. This made Li Shizhi very unhappy. Later, Li Ang hurriedly remedied it and presented Li Shizhi with the Western Regions Policy, so he barely made the list. ”

This is a secret that Li Linfu has never heard, he picked up the jade toad on the desk and played with it lightly for a while, and suddenly asked, "Gongsun Shangshu, this is all what Ling Lang told you, right?" ”

Gongsun Jin was secretly shocked in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any strange expression on the surface, his son had a close relationship with Li Ang, which could not be hidden, and Gongsun Jin did not plan to hide it anymore.

He arched his hand to Li Linfu and replied: "Don't hide it from the public, this is indeed what the dog said, when the dog was in Yizhou." I got acquainted with Li Ang and knew a lot about Li Ang. Gongsun Jin said this, paused slightly, and then continued, "Xianggong, about Li Ang. There is also a miracle. ”

All of a sudden, Li Linfu and Ji Wen's curiosity was aroused, not to mention that Li Linfu summoned Ji Wen over this time to discuss how to deal with Li Ang, and if he knew more about Li Ang, he would be more sure.

"What's the wonder?"

Gongsun Jin said: "Xianggong, Li Ang is a person with a mysterious background, but he has a white jade wrench on his body, and the wrench is engraved with 'spread wings and clouds.'" The water is far away and the sky is long' eight words, and the payment is a 'hong' word. It is said that this jade wrench is made of high-quality materials, and the carving is from the handiwork of the court masters, so it is speculated that Li Ang's life experience is likely to be related to ......" Gongsun Jin paused again before he said in a low and solemn voice, "Li Ang's life experience is likely to be related to the Tang Dynasty. ”

Gongsun Jin's words really surprised Li Linfu and Ji Wen.

Ji Wen said disapprehantly: "Gongsun Shangshu." Just based on a jade wrench of unknown origin, it was speculated that Li Ang was from the Tang Dynasty. Isn't that ridiculous? ”

Gongsun Jin said calmly: "In addition, Li Ang also has a golden knife engraved with the words 'Subi Zhuoma' in Tibetan script, which seems to be no coincidence. ”

Ji Wen still didn't understand, and asked, "Please also ask Gongsun Shangshu to solve your doubts." ”

"As far as I know, during the Kaiyuan period. Princess Zhuoma of the Subi Department once went to Chang'an with the Tibetan delegation and stayed in Chang'an for eight or nine months, during which she also had some rumors with the abolished prince Ying, and the abolished prince Ying was famous. When these many coincidences come together, it is unusual. ”

Givin gasped. looked at Li Linfu and argued strongly: "Even so, it can't be concluded that Li Ang was born in the Tang Dynasty. Taking a step back, even if Li Ang was really from a clan, so what? ”

Gongsun Jin smiled and said: "What the truth is, maybe it doesn't matter that much, what matters is whether the prince thinks he is or not." ”

Gongsun Jin's words made Li Linfu fall into contemplation, Ji Wen is also a thoughtful person, and soon thought of something, and followed the contemplation.

Gongsun Jin was worried that they were thinking too far, and immediately said: "Xianggong, the lower officials have already repented when they heard about the affairs of the three people in the past, and now they have so much appreciation for Li Ang, and they call Li Ang the lucky star of my Tang Dynasty. All of this, if you are able to control the Fa, you may not be able to take the opportunity to remove the hidden worries of the public. ”

Li Linfu's so-called hidden worries are well known, and there is no room for compromise between him and the crown prince Li Heng, once Li Heng succeeds to the throne, it will be the time when Li Linfu's family is wiped out.

Everything Li Linfu does now revolves around solving this hidden worry, the emperor is over sixty years old, and there is less and less time left for Li Linfu.

Li Linfu pondered for a moment before he said in a deep voice: "Gongsun Shangshu, you already have a belly case, let's listen to it." ”

"Xianggong, as the so-called three people become tigers, some things don't matter what the truth is, if there are more people who say it, it will become true. In the past few years, in order to move the East Palace, Xianggong has worked hard, but it has no effect, in the eyes of the lower officials, this is not Xianggong's wrong method, the root is still in the saint.

As a result, the saint is getting older, and he can't bear to see the cannibalism happen again. What's more, in the eyes of the saint, there is no better choice than the current East Palace among the many heirs, if the prince can give the saint a better choice, maybe this can make the saint make up his mind. “

The stakes are so high that even Li Linfu can't make up his mind for a while.

He repeatedly weighed Gongsun Jin's words in his heart, objectively speaking, Gongsun Jin's words are indeed very reasonable, he has exhausted all his efforts over the years, and he has not been able to bring down Li Heng, not that his means are not clever enough, nor how good Li Heng is. The two points mentioned by Gongsun Jin may be the crux of the matter.

There is no doubt that he is a male lord, and when he was young, he did not want a strong prince to threaten his monarchy, and he chose Li Heng, who seemed a little cowardly in temperament, probably out of this heart.

But as a male lord, would he really like that the successor is a coward?

A strong man will always look down on those cowards in his heart.

As an elder, you usually like the juniors with a personality similar to you, because from such juniors, you can often see the shadow of your own past, and you can feel the inheritance and continuation of your blood and spirit more strongly.

If this junior is humble and filial and will not threaten his status, as an emperor, he will definitely be happy to hand over the throne to such a descendant after a hundred years.

Li Linfu thought a lot, but he was still a little uncertain in his heart.

Ji Wen said at this time: "I'm afraid not, even if Li Ang is really the heir of the abolished prince Ying, it will be a generation late, and there are many princes today, so it is impossible to turn the turn of grandchildren." ”

Gongsun Jin said: "If Li Ang is really the blood of the abolished prince Ying, then he is the eldest grandson of today." Looking back at the past of the Tang Dynasty, if the saint passed on the eldest grandson, what would be the surprise? ”

Li Tang's inheritance of the throne is indeed chaotic enough, and even the queen is called the emperor, and there is really nothing strange about passing on the throne to the eldest grandson across his son's generation.

Seeing that Ji Wen didn't speak, Gongsun Jin continued: "Xianggong, it doesn't matter whether Li Ang is the eldest grandson or not, the important thing is that as long as we can use Li Ang to bring down the East Palace, it is enough;

Li Ang is now in Longyou has repeatedly made miraculous achievements, Wang Zhonghei has not been promoted, how can Li Ang have no resentment in his heart, if the Xianggong can show goodwill, Li Ang must be grateful and willing to be driven by the Xianggong;

Dong Yanguang is now a general of the defeated army, and he is no longer of much value, if we use Li Ang to deal with Wang Zhonghei instead, with Li Ang's ability, it will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort. ”

Gongsun Jin has been relied on by Li Linfu as his right-hand man for many years, but a person like Li Linfu cannot be completely at ease with anyone, even if it is a so-called henchman, he will have reservations.

What's more, Gongsun Jin's son and Li Ang had a very close relationship, and after Li Ang and the first, Gongsun Jin also arranged to go to Longyou, and Li Linfu knew these things.

It's just that Li Ang was just a small character before, and although Li Linfu was unhappy about Gongsun Jin's private arrangement, he didn't care too much.

Now that Li Ang has fully embodied his value, the emperor has said that he will give Li Ang a purple robe, which makes Li Linfu feel a strong sense of jealousy.

However, Gongsun would like to suggest that Li Ang be co-opted to deal with Wang Zhongsi and the crown prince Li Heng, which really made him very tempted, for him, the goal of overthrowing Li Heng is more important than everything, because if he can't pull the **** Heng, he will not be able to escape the disaster of destruction in the future!

Gongsun Jin has followed Li Linfu for so many years, of course he knows what he is afraid of, so he persuaded euphemistically: "Xianggong, although Li Ang's performance is eye-catching now, after all, he has not reached the crown of the year, he has not been in the government for less than a year, and he has no foundation in the court. It is easy to control such an officialdom. ”

Li Linfu's heart moved, and after thinking for a while, he nodded to Gongsun Jin and said: "Gongsun Shangshu, if it can really be as you say, it would be better, Ling Lang and Li Ang are close friends, and this matter will be arranged by Gongsun Shangshu." ”

Everything is focused on overthrowing the crown prince Li Heng, and for this goal, Li Linfu finally made up his mind and asked Gongsun Jin to contact Li Ang.

After Gongsun Jin left, Ji Wen's eyes flashed slightly, and he said to Li Linfu: "Xianggong, this matter is handed over to Gongsun Shangshu to handle, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, his son and Li Ang have a bad relationship, such a big matter, let Gongsun Jin handle it, it's hard to guarantee that he and Li Ang won't have any calculations in private." ”

How could these Li Linfu not know, he glanced at Ji Wen lightly, and said: "The Holy Lord is ready to let Wang Zhongji and Li Ang return to Beijing to offer prisoners, and reward them in person to show the emperor's grace. This is a rare opportunity, after Wang Zhongji returns to Beijing, he will definitely secretly contact the prince, even if they are not in contact, they must be forced to contact. I'll leave it to you. ”

Ji Wen saw that Li Linfu didn't mention Li Ang's matter, so he had to say with interest: "Xianggong allows me to think about it for two days, and when I have something, I will come back to report to Xianggong." ”

"Well, go ahead."

Ji Wen got up and bowed, and after exiting Li Linfu's study, he sighed slightly, and the expression on his face became even more gloomy.
