readx;?“ Aiqing, taste this tea, how does it taste? Li Longji said. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Canghai picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said: "This tea has a rich aroma and a clear tea soup, which is a treasure in tea." ”

Li Longji nodded and said: "Yes, this tea is Jiangnan tribute tea, and its name is 'Sparrow Fairy'." Although this tea is wonderful, when it comes to boiling tea, there is a lot of exquisiteness. If you want to make a good cup of tea, you need not only good tea leaves, but also good water. But with all that, can you make good tea? ”

Li Canghai frowned slightly, and said calmly: "Please show your majesty." ”

Li Longji stroked his beard and said, "If you want to make a good cup of tea, the most important thing is balance. If there is more tea, the taste is bitter. If there is more water, it will be light and tasteless. Only with an appropriate amount of tea and water, and then controlled by the heat, can a cup of fragrant tea with full color and flavor can be cooked. ”

Speaking of this, Li Longji stared at Li Canghai and said meaningfully: "What I said, do you understand?" ”

Li Canghai put down the tea, nodded and said, "Minister, understand." ”

Li Longji smiled and said deeply: "You are a smart person, I know that you will understand." You and Guozhong are both ministers of my humerus. Although Guozhong said that he was wrong, he did not sin to death. What's more, Guozhong, as a major minister, if he is convicted, it will definitely shake the morale of the army. It's not good for the country! ”

Li Canghai did not speak.

Li Longji continued: "I know that Aiqing is loyal to me, and I also know that Guozhong has done many excessive things. But he has a heavy army in his hands, and he has many protégés, and he still needs to maintain this Tang Dynasty! ”

"Minister, understood." Li Canghai's expression was calm, and it was still those three words.

Li Longji sighed and said, "Although Guozhong has a heavy army, he is the elder brother of Yuhuan after all, and he will never dare to rebel. But you are different, whether in the army or in the people, you have a very high reputation, the people trust you, and the ministers are also the first to look forward to you. What's more, you are also good at the art of war, and the people are even more responsive to you...... ”

Hearing this, Li Canghai immediately understood the meaning of Li Longji's words.

It turned out that Li Longji called himself here in order to give himself a 'glass of wine to release his military power'.

Li Canghai smiled bitterly in his heart, An Lushan's rebellion was imminent, but Li Longji was still worried about his high achievements.

"Your Majesty, don't say more. The ministers understand. From today onwards, the ministers will resign and go into hiding. Li Canghai said calmly.

Li Longji smiled and said, "Aiqing, don't blame me for being ruthless. This is also a helpless move! ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers understand. After today, the three words Li Canghai will disappear from the world. After a pause, Li Canghai got up and saluted: "If Your Majesty has no other instructions, the minister will leave." ”

Li Longji stroked his beard and said, "Aiqing has this thought, and I am very relieved. After you resigned, the position of the founding county marquis was allowed to be replaced by you. ”

"Minister, thank you, Your Majesty. The minister retired. After Li Canghai saluted, he got up and withdrew from the dormitory.

After Li Canghai left, Gao Lishi asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty, Li Canghai is quite talented and loyal to His Majesty, is it a bit inappropriate to do this?" ”

Li Longji sighed and said, "Li Canghai is indeed quite talented, but because of this, I have to guard against it!" ”

"The old slave is puzzled, and I ask Your Majesty to show it." Colliers owes his body.

Li Longji took a sip of the teacup and said deeply: "Li Canghai is indeed quite talented, and he also does his best for my Tang Dynasty. But because of this, I had to be wary of him. From obscurity to fame, Li Canghai took less than a year. Now, whether in the military or in the people, he has the highest reputation. If he rebels, the people will respond to it. I can't raise tigers for trouble! ”

"Your Majesty is careless, right? Although Li Canghai is quite prestigious among the people, he has no real power and is loyal to His Majesty, so he will definitely not rebel and cause chaos. Colliers hesitated, cautiously.

Li Longji said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case." Now, there are more and more supporters of Li Canghai, and I have to guard against it. What's more, Li Canghai has been dealing with Guozhong from beginning to end. Although Guozhong has been loyal to me, he is loyal to me. Over the years, I have worked hard to maintain the balance between Guozhong and Cui Jian and others, but the emergence of Li Canghai has tilted this balance, and if this balance is broken, the court will be in chaos. I will never allow this to happen. ”

Gao Lishi was silent, and after a while, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty, as far as the old slave knows, An Lushan has gathered a large army, and there are indeed signs of rebellion. Now, if Li Canghai resigns, will it shake the morale of the military? ”

Li Longji smiled and said, "An Lushan is loyal to me, how can he rebel?" This is his 800-mile urgency, sent to me, the reason why he mobilized the army, in fact, is to attack the Turks. ”

"But Your Majesty, Li Canghai has already captured An Lushan's men, how can this be fake?" Colliers said busily.

Li Longji said disapprenously: "Lushan is also the envoy of Pinglu, Fanyang, and Hedong Towns, and he has also offended many ministers, so someone must have deliberately framed him. Lu Shan also sent some rare things to the concubine a few days ago, which is enough to show his loyalty to me. Okay, don't mention this matter again, I'm a little tired, you can go down and rest! ”

Gao Lishi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw that Li Longji had made up his mind, he didn't say anything more, bowed and bowed and then withdrew from the hall.

But it was said that Li Canghai left the palace and returned to the mansion.

In the mansion, Kang Xu, Chang Feng, and Xiao Wu and others were happily talking about something.

Seeing Li Canghai coming, several people got up and saluted.

"Subordinates, see your lord!"

Li Canghai nodded, walked to the chair and sat down.

Xue Xuan walked in with some snacks, put them on the table beside Li Canghai, and asked, "Canghai, what was the result when I went to the court this time?" Did the saint punish Yang Guozhong? ”

Kang Xu and the others also looked at him, with expectations in their eyes.

Li Canghai glanced at them, then got up and clasped his fists at them and saluted.

This move immediately startled several people.

"My lord, why are you, the lowly rank can't afford it!" Kang Xu said busily.

"During this period of time, you have worked hard to secretly collect evidence of Yang Guozhong's crimes." Li Canghai Road.

Chang Feng said: "My lord, these are all things that are within our responsibility, you are so polite, but you are tormenting me and waiting." ”

Xue Xuan saw that Li Canghai's face was different, so he asked, "Canghai, didn't you succeed in bringing down Yang Guozhong this time?" ”

Li Canghai sighed and said, "I thought that I could take advantage of the elixir to bring down Yang Guozhong, but I didn't expect it to end in failure. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Kang Xu said in disbelief: "My lord, we have collected a lot of evidence of the evil things that Yang Guozhong has done, can't we still convict him?" (To be continued.) )
