Chapter 679: Few Can Dodge

Chapter 679: Few can dodge

The reason why Chang'an City is too solemn is because there are too few trees in the city, and every street and every building is made of blue bricks and gray tiles, revealing a somewhat depressing depression. If a city is too grand, it will give people a sense of insignificance, and no matter where they look, they will feel tall, and they will not feel that they have any tall places.

And there is no doubt that the young man who walked slowly from the gate of the West Inner Garden and walked slowly in the northeast direction is very tall in the eyes of everyone in this big city now, even taller than Chang'an City, and even taller than the highest hall in Taiji Palace.

According to the will of the new emperor Li Chengde, Li Xian was promoted to the equal throne, which was equivalent to the emperor's status, and he could wear bright yellow embroidered dragon clothes. But Li Xian was still dressed in black clothes, and he didn't seem to have any intention of fighting with the emperor for anything. But everyone knows that the level of status has little to do with what color of clothes in this period, and the person wearing the yellow dragon robe is actually too far away from the person who gets up and wears black clothes.

A tall existence in the eyes of everyone naturally needs everyone to look up.

Li Xian, who walked at the front of the crowd, was a mountain that was difficult for everyone to reach.

Perhaps it was because the previous emperor also noticed that Chang'an City was too monotonous and the aura of slaughter was too strong, and there were too many people who had died in Chang'an City in the past few years, so that the entire city was shrouded in a suffocating bloody atmosphere. Therefore, the newly built Yong'an Palace is full of green trees, and the flowers are red and willow green.

The construction of Yong'an Palace began in the second year of Wood, and it has lasted for a year and a half, but it has not yet been completed. It doesn't seem surprising to look at it this way, but you must know that the Yong'an Palace was built by Shangshu Yu Wenkai of the former Great Sui Ministry of Industry, and you must know that it was him a few decades ago, and it only took more than a year to build the entire Chang'an City.

It can be seen that the construction of Yong'an Palace cost Yu Wenkai a lot of energy.

Li Xian lived in Chang'an City for more than two months, and walked all over the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, but he never went to the Yong'an Palace under construction, which was the first time he walked into this huge building complex that had not yet been built after arriving in Chang'an.

Since the rebellion of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, the construction of Yong'an Palace stopped for a period of time, but the construction resumed after the funeral of the queen mother, and Yu Wenkai, who survived the rebellion of the king of Qin, was a cautious and conscientious supervisor and superintended, and he had not returned home for a long time. But after King Yan entered the city a while ago, the construction of Yong'an Palace stopped again.

After Li Xian got off the early court, he said that he was going to go to Yong'an Palace to see, so the whole court began to be busy, it was a simple trip, but it was made very grand by those trembling courtiers, when he saw the forbidden army honor guard, the imperial cavalry, Li Xian was angry and happy, and he didn't bother to scold the officials of the Ministry of Rites, knowing that these people were also afraid that their official positions would not be guaranteed, so they just ordered everyone to disperse in a rather stern tone, and only walked to the direction of Yong'an Palace on foot with more than 20 important court ministers.

The people who followed Li Xian were divided into two groups, and they were distinct.

Behind him on the right were the heroes of Yan Yunjun. Although it will not be announced to the world until the ceremony is over, the titles of the old ministers of Yan Yunjun have actually been decided a long time ago, but the foreign enemy has not been completely pacified, so naturally it cannot be officially announced.

The closest to Li Xian was the British Duke Xu Shiji, followed by the Duke of the Protector Qin Qiong, followed by the Duke of Chen Guoxiong Kuohai, the Duke of Lu Cheng Zhijie, the Duke of Baoguo Pei Xingyan, the Duke of Zhao Luo Shixin, the county prince Wang Qinian, the county marquis of the criminal department Shangshu Duguxue and others. On the other side, following Li Xian were the former ministers of Li Yuanchao, Nayan Pei Lian, Zhongshu Ling Liu Zhenghui, Shangshu's left servant shot Xiao Yu, Shangshu's right servant shot Yu Shinan, Shangshu's Shangshu Gao Shilian, and Zhang Gongjin, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

These dozen or so people are all important figures in Chang'an City.

Walking in the back are the anxious waiter Fang Xuanling, the newly transferred household waiter Wei Zheng, and Tang Jian, who recently returned to Chang'an City and was appointed by Li Xian as the waiter of the Ministry of Works. The identities of these people are somewhat special, so they naturally can't be as calm and calm as the generals of the Yanyun Army in front of them.

Li Yuan's old ministers were actually nervous in their hearts, so they automatically walked a little slower, almost half a step behind the generals of the Yanyun army, this detail Li Xian obviously discovered, but he didn't seem to say anything.

When he walked to the gate of Yong'an Palace, Shangshu Yu Wenkai of the Ministry of Industry was already waiting outside.

Because of the incident a while ago, the construction of Yong'an Palace stopped again, and today Li Xian asked about it when he specially ordered that this palace should be built, and now is not the time to stop.

"Chen Yu Wenkai, knock on His Highness!"

Yu Wenkai, who was already completely white and his hair was old, made a big salute, lifted his robe and knelt down.

Li Xian walked to his side, helped him up, patted the dust on his clothes with his own hands, and said softly: "Gu Shi said ten days ago that the ceremony of kneeling is not good, so it is the great gift of the court meeting, and Gu Du is exempted......"

Yu Wenkai's body trembled slightly and said: "Your Highness also said that the elders over the age of sixty should not kneel and bow, even if the emperor receives the elders' kneeling, he will also lose his life, so you order, the elders will not kneel when they see the king." ”

"That's right...... Lonely remembers, you're sixty-eight years old. ”

Li Xian said with a smile.

Yu Wenkai's wrinkled face was covered with wrinkles, and his teeth were almost gone. His exhausting work made him look even older than his peers, but now his old face was full of excitement: "But this great gift must be done no matter what, just for His Highness to order the Yong'an Palace to restart." Yong'an Palace...... You can't stop. ”

"Non-stop!"

Li Xian waved his hand and said, "Yong'an Palace will be built, and it will be built according to your plan......"

He paused for a moment and said: "The name Yong'an Palace is not good, I heard that Li Shimin once thought of a name, called Daming Palace, right?" It's a great name...... Knowing the world, very good. ”

……

……

Yu Wenkai was half a step ahead and walked tremblingly in front, introducing the layout of Daming Palace as he walked. Li Xian listened carefully and nodded from time to time. At this time, the Daming Palace has begun to take shape, and it looks extremely magnificent and magnificent. Without losing the atmosphere and beauty, it is more than half of the palace that has been built, which makes people feel refreshed.

"Your Royal Highness is wise, this word Ming is indeed very consistent with this palace. Your Highness does not deny that these two words are thought of by traitors, and no one can match the open-mindedness of his heart......"

Li Xian waved his hand to interrupt Yu Wenkai's words, smiled and said, "Don't shoot the lonely fart." ”

He pointed at Wang Qinian and said: "This person is the best in the world when he pats his ass, and he doesn't listen to it on weekdays...... It is enough for one of you to sing the praises of virtue, and you are all people who do practical things, unlike him. He said something that he loved to listen to to relieve his boredom, he liked it, you did things seriously and carefully, and he was more happy. ”

Wang Qinian's face flushed slightly when he heard this, but he was not ashamed. He raised his head and puffed up his chest, and he walked with great dignity, and he was proud because of Li Xian's statement that he was the best in the world.

Li Xian walked slowly, and said as he walked: "Besides, if you use the three words Daming Palace, you won't use it just because Li Shimin thought of this name, and you won't go to great lengths to think of a more appropriate and suitable one." This is not to pretend to be generous, but the right is the right, since it is suitable, why bother to change it again? ”

"And the things that Lone considers are different from you, Lone let restart the construction of Daming Palace, sympathizing with your hard work is only one of them, and the other meaning is the most important."

He pointed to the majestic palace not far away and said: "This palace was built by the order of the Emperor Taishang, in order to show the majesty of the Tang Empire and the strength of the country. Lone Cai was in power for the first time, what would people say if he ordered this palace to be stopped? They will not say that Lone wants to save money to destroy foreign enemies, nor will they say that Lone wants to leave the silver to care for the people's livelihood...... They will say that Lone wants to deny everything about the Emperor, and they will also say that Lone is greedy for money, and they will say that Lone has no ability to build this palace. ”

Yu Wenkai was stunned, but he didn't know how to answer.

Li Xian's footsteps slowed down, and he deliberately waited for the person who followed him: "Lone will not pretend to be humble and submissive, there is no need for that, and now there is no one who can make Lone humble and submissive, no one can do it." Now that Lone is in power, he will not be arrogant, and naturally he will not say anything false, the power is in the lonely hand, there is no need to deny it, let alone pretend to be uneasy. ”

He said in a clear voice: "Lone stands at this height, Lone will not be proud and complacent, nor will he be overly humble, because whether it is excessive pride or excessive humility, it is false. There is no need to do such a thing as pretending. ”

Xu Shiji's eyes changed when he heard this, and he consciously glanced at the group of old ministers of Li Yuanchao. He has been killing for ten years, and there is naturally an awe-inspiring killing intent in his eyes. This glance complemented Li Xian's words, and those who saw Xu Shiji's eyes were shocked in their hearts and understood the meaning of Xu Shiji's eyes.

No matter who doubts, Li Xian's words, Xu Shiji dared to lead the troops to slaughter the entire Chang'an City, don't say that these people are in a high position, that is, if their family Li Xian wants to be peaceful, no one will stop him. In the eyes of many people, Xu Shiji is another black knife in Li Xian's hand.

"How long will it take for Daming Palace to be built?"

Li Xian changed the topic and asked Yu Wenkai in a flat tone.

Yu Wenkai thought for a while and said, "If nothing else, it can be completed before winter." Now what is still missing is the boulders and flowers and trees transported from Jiangnan, these things cost manpower and material resources, and they can not be transported in a while and a half, and there are more than 30 people sent by the emperor to Jiangnan, but many of the things needed are not complete. ”

Hearing this, Li Xian paused and glanced back at Yu Wenkai, and then glanced at Xingguo Gong Xie Yingdeng.

"A few days ago, Jiangdu stayed behind Zhang Liang to report that he had beheaded a few officials who went to Jiangnan from Chang'an to do business, and he vaguely remembered this matter, but he forgot what he cut from the beginning, you tell Gu again."

Xie Ying took a step forward and said: "Just more than two months ago, Zhang Liang left behind in Jiangdu and wrote that there were several officials of the Tang Dynasty who were powerful and prosperous in Jiangnan, and used the fame of building the palace to make a lot of money. ”

"Oh?"

Li Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, and said meaningfully: "It's still the dozen or so heads that Gu ordered to behead." ”

"But it's not unjust."

Li Xian smiled and said to Yu Wenkai: "I didn't expect it to be because of this delay in the construction process of Daming Palace...... Yu Wenkai, you go and choose a few people to report it yourself, and then go to Jiangnan...... The procurement envoy sent to Jiangnan by the imperial court before, if Gu remembered correctly, more than 30 people were cut in half by Zhang Liang, and the rest were hidden and did not dare to do things. But it doesn't matter, Lone wants to cut off the head...... No one can hide. ”

Hearing this, Shang Shu's left servant shot Xiao Yu's body trembled violently.

Nayan Pei Lin and Zhongshu Ling glanced at each other, their faces full of worry.
