Tubo matter, Li Su suddenly felt that the atmosphere of Chang'an's officialdom had changed, he felt that these ministers were becoming more and more respectful to him, no longer like to find a reason to do with him like to have nothing to do before, he thought that this may be why some emperors will always knock on some nearby countries when facing opposition from domestic forces has increased their prestige in the country, this time Li Su personally issued an order to subdue Tubo, and basically did not pay casualties The battle did deter a lot of ministers, because this time basically all the Chang'an generals accompanied the visit, The change in their attitudes after their return also indirectly affected the attitudes of these civil officials.

Time flies, four years have passed in a blink of an eye, four years of Li Su's position in the Tang Empire is gradually consolidated, up to hundreds of officials, down to the people, everyone understands that Li Su is now the de facto emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the only difference is that there is still a title of emperor, these four years are not long, but it is also not short, the Yizhou model is gradually implemented in Chang'an, Chang'an officials are familiar with the new administrative methods, and the people have also experienced the richness of the life of the people of Yizhou, this rich life has made Li Su's prestige in the people reach a new level.

On this day, Li Su was suddenly a little bored, and he felt very good about holding power, but the busy government affairs also made him tired enough, he simply pushed off all government affairs in the morning, and wandered around Chang'an City with the guards, after the engineering team intervened in Chang'an, the changes in Chang'an can be said to be changing with each passing day, and all kinds of magnificent buildings stood up in four years, and the prosperity seemed to have returned to this ancient capital.

Walking on the clean asphalt road, Li Su looked at the cars that rushed by, some of these cars were produced by the Yizhou factory, and some were sold here from the trade area, in addition to the cars, the shops along the street sold all kinds of goods that can only be bought in modern times, which is the change brought by two-way trade to Datang.

Shaking his head and smiling, Li Su recalled that when he first came to Chang'an, it was like a world away. At that time, he was just an unpleasant prince, according to the records in the history books, he should have died of illness in Bashu at this time, but more than ten years have passed, but he has become the person with the highest power in this country.

It's just that he hasn't had an easy time in the past four years, and when he really took over the entire Datang government affairs, he felt the pressure on his body and the cumbersome government affairs. understands the phrase that it is easy to fight the country and it is difficult to defend the country, and the most uncomfortable thing for him in the past four years is to watch the changes of those old ministers who have accompanied him for more than ten years after he entered Chang'an, and he has been coldly watching the ministers fight between them in the past four years, as he predicted, today's court has really become a battlefield for the Yizhou faction headed by the above officials, and the Chang'an faction headed by the eldest grandson Wuji.

And that's secondary. What annoyed him the most was the subtle change in the relationship between the three women behind him, the reason for this change was that Su Mo'er and Liu Yanyu each added a boy to Li Su, and now although the three of them are still like sisters on the surface, he feels that they sometimes deliberately meet each other. This was very easy for him, who had watched countless palace fights in later generations, and at this time he suddenly understood one thing, he was in control. But they can't control people's hearts.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at Qujiangchi." Rongda accompanied Li Su out today, and saw that Li Su was in a bad mood. has never dared to speak, four years is enough time for Rongda to become a qualified Huangmen squire, and Rongda has indeed done it.

"Oh, really?" Li Su raised his eyes and looked at the repaired Qujiang Pond, as a scene of Chang'an, there are many new scenic spots along the Qujiang Pond, and the goldfish swimming in the Qujiang Pond also shows that Chang'an has been moving closer to Yizhou in the past four years.

Rong Da said respectfully: "Your Highness, these years are busy with government affairs and rarely have the opportunity to come out to play, this Qujiang Pool is much more interesting than before, every night, here are full of colorful lights, Yizhou's special snacks are all over the street, here is the most lively place in Chang'an at night." ”

Li Su glanced at the vendors, and then at the treading carts in the lake, if they weren't wearing Tang Dynasty clothes, he still thought this was modern?

"It's time to go out for a walk." Li Su said, and said to Rong Da: "Shangguan Yi went to Yizhou and hasn't come back yet?" ”

"Your Highness, haven't you come back yet? said that he was entangled in something important. ”

Li Su let out an "oh" and suddenly walked towards a hotel in Qujiangchi......

In the Wei family restaurant in Yizhou, Shangguan Yi is having dinner with Guan Sixing and other Yizhou officials, Yizhou has not declined in recent years because of the rise of Chang'an and other emerging cities in the Tang Dynasty, but because of the economic pioneer status has become more and more prosperous, attracting businessmen from all over the world.

"Elder Shangguan Ge, I salute you, if there was no mention from you in the Government Affairs University back then, and then I always spoke well in front of His Highness, I would not be able to care about Sixing today." After a few glasses of wine, Guan Sixing stood up with a wine glass and said to Shangguan Yi.

Waving his hand, Shangguan Yi asked Guan Sixing to sit down and said: "Sixing, this is all your own ability, and it is also our Royal Highness's insight and talent, so that those of us who have no ambition can have today's glory and wealth, and you should be grateful to Your Highness." ”

Guan Sixing said: "This is nature, His Royal Highness's kindness to me, I am unforgettable." ”

Shangguan Yi glanced at Guan Sixing, who looked drunk, and suddenly sighed heavily, "That's good." ”

"Why did the old man of Shangguan Pavilion sigh suddenly." Guan Sixing wondered.

"Hey!" Shangguan Yi sighed heavily again, and said: "I really envy you, you are carefree in Yizhou, just like I have to remind you to live a fearful life every day in Chang'an." ”

Guan Sixing became more and more puzzled, "The old man of Shangguan Pavilion is now a very popular minister, and he can be said to be above ten thousand people under one person in the court, how can he say this?" ”

"You just see my superficial scenery, my life is not easy in the court, I have to remind you every day that you are afraid of being referenced behind your back, especially the eldest grandson Wuji is always against me." Shangguan Yi said.

Although Guan Sixing is in Yizhou, he also knows that the DPRK and China are now divided into two factions, including the accounts of Yizhou, and the officials sent by Chang'an every year to audit, if there is a little mistake, they will stab Li Su, of course, the accounts of other states and counties in the north are also audited in Yizhou, which is called cross-audit, last year because of this matter, there were three officials in Yizhou who were demoted, Guan Sixing said angrily: "The eldest grandson Wuji, these old ministers of the original class, really don't know the current affairs, and they don't look at who is ruling the world now." ”

"If you want me to say, these people are just relying on the emperor's fox and fake tiger might, if His Royal Highness ascends the throne, see if they dare to be so arrogant." An official who followed Shangguan Yi to Yizhou suddenly said loudly.

The other officials showed a contemplative expression when they heard this, and no one dared to speak, and the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became a little solemn for a while, and now Li Shimin is also the emperor no matter how he says, and this official's words can be described as a big rebellion.

"Hahaha...... You don't have to be nervous, Wang Shilang is just angry, and he has no other intentions. Shangguan Yi broke the silent atmosphere, and everyone showed relaxed expressions, and pushed the cup again.

Guan Sixing has been pondering since Wang Shilang spoke, and he said to Shangguan Yi hesitantly: "Don't hide it from Shangguan Pavilion Lao, I am familiar with Li Chunfeng Dao of Qingcheng Mountain, and I drank tea with him a few days ago, and you also know that the emperor is practicing in Qingcheng Mountain in addition to Yizhou, and he told me that day that the emperor has the idea of Zen and is dedicated to studying Taoism, but it seems that he is still a little hesitant." ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Yi's pupils dilated suddenly, but the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, he calculated, he has followed Li Su for fourteen years, he was twenty-six that year, and now he is in his early forties, the previous depression made him more and more aware of the need to seize power today, and there is an enemy at the peak of power is the Chang'an faction headed by Changsun Wuji, as long as they are eliminated, he is really one person under ten thousand people, and the fastest way to defeat these people is to let them lose Li Shimin's backer, Now Guan Sixing's words made him suddenly see hope, since Li Shimin has this idea, he only needs a little persuasion, maybe this matter will be done.
