Xue Chongxun was taken away by Ghost Li to heal his injuries, and whether he was dead or alive has not yet come to fruition. After this incident, no one inside and outside the court was too happy, whether it was Princess Taiping or Li Longji, they all had their own worries. Even if it is Xue Chongxun's enemy Gao Lishi, he has nothing to be happy about, Xue Chongxun is not dead, but he is going to die.

The only person who was so happy to dance was Liu Youqiu.

Liu You begged for his heart and said: God really helps me! In this way, if a coup d'état is proposed, the supporters should be counted as Gaolis, and at the same time, everyone around the prince will be in danger, and the resistance to the coup d'état will suddenly become smaller.

He thought about it, and after he got off duty, he first changed into a coarse cloth robe, bought a large bag of braised meat in Dongshi, made two pots of wine, and leisurely walked through Dongshi, and went to Anxingfang to visit Zhang Wei, the general of the Ten Thousand Cavalry.

The sun sets, the eaves stone road, full of ancient flavor. Liu Youqiu looked at the sunset hidden among the willow branches, and there was a sense of hope in his heart, and he muttered: "Tomorrow morning, it will still shine." ”

When he came to Zhang's mansion, the servant said that General Zhang had not returned from the Forbidden Garden, and asked Liu Youqiu to come in and sit, but Liu Youqiu sat under the tree opposite the door, drinking and waiting.

At dusk, Zhang Weicai rode back with a swagger of cavalry, guarded by a team of personal cavalry. Liu Youqiu stood up, hugged his fists and said, "General Zhang, don't come unharmed." ”

"Huh? It's Liu Xianggong! Zhang Wei hurriedly jumped off the horse and immediately laughed, "Why is Liu Xianggong dressed like this?" ”

Liu Youqiu smiled and lifted the wine jug in his hand: "I just want to drink, but the more I drink alone, the more I drink, the more sad I become. ”

Zhang Wei, who is full of beard, was originally a local hero, and what he admires most is to drink and eat meat, boldness is his favorite, if Liu Youqiu pretends to put on a shelf, he doesn't like it. But seeing Liu Youqiu carrying wine and meat, Zhang Wei was immediately very happy and said happily: "Liu Xianggong is the prime minister of the court, so I am embarrassed." ”

Liu Youqiu shook his head and said, "You and I are both the prince's people. ”

"Haha...... I like that, it's refreshing! It's not like some people hide and pinch, it's awkward! ”

Liu You begged: "I'm older than you, and I call myself brother unceremoniously, just call me Brother Liu." You see that I don't have an official uniform on me, wouldn't the old man of the Xianggong Pavilion be disappointed? ”

"Good! Brother Liu, just with your words, let's do a pot. After that, he snatched a pot of wine from Liu Youqiu's hand, raised it, touched Liu Youqiu, raised his head and poured it, and drank "grunt".

"Good amount of wine...... Good amount of alcohol. Liu Youqiu looked at the wine jug in his hand with some sorrow, Zhang Wei, the man, drank half of the wine he prepared in one sip, and the remaining half should the old man drink it dry in one gulp?

Zhang Wei casually threw away the wine jug in his hand and said, "Brother Liu doesn't have to drink it dry in one gulp, I don't pay attention to these, how about we go in and drink again?" ”

"Brother Xian, please."

The two entered the mansion hand in hand, and Zhang Wei called the slave maid to serve wine and food, and he didn't care about a lot, so he and Liu Youqiu ate and drank at the wine table.

During the banquet, Zhang Wei said with a smile: "There is no delicacies from the mountains and seas, but I am full." ”

Liu Youqiu took the opportunity to sigh and said: "Let's not think about the delicacies of the mountains and seas, the benefits are all taken up by the gang of Taiping's subordinates, they are eating fragrant and spicy food, but what about us, we don't know how long we can eat this mouthful of rice!" ”

Zhang Wei said: "Brother Liu, there is something in the words, if you have something to say, you can say it directly, I understand, but I don't like to beat around the bush." ”

"Refreshing." Liu Youqiu hugged his fists and said, "Then the old brother said bluntly, an incident happened two days ago, Xue Chongxun, the Duke of Weiguo, was stabbed, and his life and death are unknown. Now Colliers can't run, and he is definitely planted in this matter. ”

Zhang Wei nodded while eating: "I know about this, Gao Lishi is finished, and everyone knows about it." Although Lux is a eunuch, he is qualified to compete with me, and I can afford him, alas, and soon there will be one less opponent to fight. ”

Liu Youqiu said indifferently: "This time it's Gao Lishi, next time I'm afraid it will be your turn to be a virtuous brother." ”

Zhang Wei was stunned, threw away the chicken leg in his hand, and said: "I didn't do anything bad, I didn't even drink wine in the barracks, why should I be punished?" ”

"You have ten thousand horses in your hands!" Liu Youqiu's expression was cold, and he took a pinch of breath, deliberately creating a sense of urgency, "Wan Qi is the most elite man and horse in the forbidden army, can people watch it in the hands of the prince?" When the time comes, you Zhang Wei will shout: Brothers, follow me with the knife in hand, and help the prince to eliminate the rebellious party and support justice...... Are people afraid? ”

Zhang Wei was speechless, and looked at Liu Youqiu with the lantern open.

Liu Youqiu hit the railway while it was hot: "As far as I know, several prime ministers such as Dou Huaizhen and Xiao Zhizhong are already making plans on how to get rid of you Zhang Wei." This news is by no means false, if I Liu Youqiu has half a lie, the sky will thunder. ”

"Bang!" Zhang Wei slapped the table and scolded: "Fuck it, when Lao Tzu made meritorious contributions with his head, he became this general with real merit, why did he drive Lao Tzu down?" ”

Liu Youqiu said coldly: "Hurry down? That's all good, watch your head......"

Zhang Wei was so angry that he said: "In this way, let's go to the prince and say, we can't watch others put us to death one by one one like this, do it!" Princess Taiping can't move? If she can move us, we can move her! Isn't Princess Taiping just like Queen Wei at the beginning, wouldn't it be nice for us to raise troops again and eradicate them directly? ”

Liu You was overjoyed, and immediately hit it off: "You have soldiers, I have a plan." As soon as you and my brothers join forces, plus the crown prince's sixth rate and prestige status in the East Palace, things will not be difficult...... But you have to say this, because the ten thousand horses in your hand are the most important thing, as long as you are firm in your mind, the prince can avoid worries. ”

Zhang Wei grabbed Liu Youqiu's hand: "Let's go together, let's go to the Fifth Prince's Mansion in Longqingfang and talk to the prince." ”

When Liu Youqiu groaned, he was pulled away by Zhang Wei. Walking out of the gate of Zhang's mansion, the night had already begun, and they went straight to the prince's mansion overnight.

Because both of them were big members of the prince's hands, the prince's guards hurriedly reported to Li Longji. Since it was an overnight visit, there must be something serious, and Li Longji ordered to take them into the house to talk.

Li Longji was wearing a brocade robe and sat on the top seat. After the two of them saw the ceremony, Zhang Wei couldn't wait to say: "Your Highness, Gao Lishi was the one who did great things with us at the beginning, and now others say that he is guilty, he is guilty?" ”

"That's what you're talking about so late?" Li Longji frowned and said, "You don't have to say much about this matter, I have my own opinions." ”

Zhang Wei knelt on the ground and said: "Your Highness, the eldest husband has some patience and some can't bear it, we can't sit still like this, it's better to be like Tang Longshi, take ten thousand horses to kill into Princess Taiping's mansion, and settle the situation in one game!" ”

Liu Youqiu also hurriedly said: "General Zhang's mind is right, but the strategy is wrong, we can still plan and plan." It's not enough to just enter the Taiping Princess Mansion of Zhenguo, as long as we raise our troops, we will offend Jinshang, and the dividing troops will rush into the Daming Palace...... Controlling the Yulin Army and arresting Princess Taiping's henchmen must be designed step by step. ”

Li Longji looked at Zhang Wei and then at Liu Youqiu, the two powerful officials are sincere in their work, and they can also ask Gao Lishi and others to participate together...... It's really exciting.

But Li Longji seemed to have his own thoughts, he didn't agree immediately, and muttered: "I'm still the crown prince now, and I'm also the minister of my father's emperor. Even if we have a greater grasp of the ten thousand horses, what about the Yulin Army? When the time comes, will they listen to the emperor, or will they listen to me, the crown prince? You must understand that the generals of the forbidden army know in their hearts that their duty is to defend the emperor and the center. ”

Liu You begged: "Last year's Tanglong event, His Royal Highness had no prestige in the army, and Empress Wei's power was greater than today's Princess Taiping or today's Shangshang, didn't we still succeed?" The people's hearts are towards His Royal Highness, and everyone hopes that the crown prince will come to the world, eradicate the peace of the black smoke miasma and plot against him, and stabilize the political situation...... Today is very different than last year, His Royal Highness's prestige is in full swing among the ten thousand cavalry soldiers, you are the Ninth Five-Year Emperor sooner or later, and there are many generals who are our people, how can they not listen to Your Highness? There is no problem with controlling the ten thousand horses, and the flying horses (Yulin Army) can also find a way. ”

Li Longji frowned and thought for a long time before he said: "I still think that it will not be time, if you have the title of emperor, the chance will be greater." Shao'an is not impatient, those who become big things not only need to be decisive, but also have to be calm! ”

Liu Youqiu continued to work hard: "I'm afraid that the Taiping Party will not let His Highness have a chance to ascend the throne at all, they are a group of vicious wolves, and they will stare at the opportunity to pull you off the horse at any time!" Yesterday it was Yao Chong and Song Jing, today it was Gao Lishi, and tomorrow it was Zhang Wei. I'm afraid that His Highness will be unable to act decisively when the time comes! Think again! ”

Li Longji said: "The overall situation can't be too concerned about the gains and losses of one son and one grain, but when it comes to changing the dispute, I have already arranged for the matter of Gaolis, as long as the real culprit is found out, and the real evidence is presented to my father, everything will be resolved." If it was really his Gaolishi who did it, it was his own death! ”

"Your Highness......" Liu Youqiu almost begged bitterly, he dreamed every night that he would cut off his head with a knife in his hand.

Li Longji glanced at Liu You and begged: "This matter is not suitable for publicity, you must not leak half a sentence!" In these extraordinary times, we can't distract ourselves from our minds and wait for two days to find other trustworthy people to discuss and discuss together, and our hearts should be in one place. ”

Liu Youqiu and Zhang Wei had no choice but to leave. Li Longji also walked out of the door and looked up at the starry sky.

Destiny is mine! People can't be removed, and if they can't be removed, they can ascend to the throne of God and walk the road in the name of the emperor, that is the destiny of heaven...... However, if people do not fight, is the destiny still there?

The temptation to deal with the enemy on the spot and seize the imperial power as soon as possible is very great. Li Longji was hesitating, because he had a faint sense of foreboding.

Perhaps, if he is still the San Lang who "has nothing" and has not many opportunities at all, then he will never give up the opportunity to succeed at this time! But now that he is the crown prince, he is powerful and famous, but he has too many things to worry about, and he has too many scruples, so he can't make a desperate bet regardless of it......
