Fang Xuanling sighed, nodded and said, "Yes, the second daughter of the martial arts family has now entered the palace, and she is deeply favored by Your Majesty, and she has been named a talented person by Your Majesty!" ”

"What?" Qin Xuan lost his voice. "The second daughter of the martial family, she will ......" originally wanted to say that Wu Zetian would usurp the throne, but thought that even if he said it, Fang Xuanling would not believe it, so Qin Xuan stopped when he said this.

Fang Xuanling picked up "Zhou Yi" on the desk and said casually: "Forgive the old man for being rude, the virtuous nephew asked the old man to forward the folded book to His Majesty, and the old man was worried that the virtuous nephew would make a mistake, so he secretly opened it and checked it." However, the old man has already forwarded it to His Majesty. Now that the second daughter of the martial arts family has entered the palace, the old man is also worried about this matter, so he reads "Zhou Yi" hard at home! ”

Qin Xuan followed what he had written, and said: "Fang Xiang, although the second daughter of the martial arts family has good looks and is qualified to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, but her fate is not in harmony with the Tang Dynasty, why does Your Majesty still include her in the palace?" Why didn't Fang Xiang say anything to dissuade him? ”

Fang Xuanling drooped his face and explained: "Virtuous nephew, the old man also saw that His Majesty was diligent in political affairs before, and mistakenly thought that His Majesty would definitely not be affected by it. Unexpectedly, Your Majesty has now been fascinated by the martial arts people, and he doesn't care about handling political affairs! It's really the old man's fault! ”

Qin Xuan took a deep breath and persuaded: "Fang Xiang, this matter has nothing to do with you, but the stakes are very high, and the little nephew hopes that Fang Xiang can enter the palace with me!" ”

Fang Xuanling thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, the old man will give up his life today, and he will also advise His Majesty!" ”

Qin Xuan waved his hand and said, "No! Fang Xiang doesn't need to say much today, and the rest of the things will be explained to His Majesty by the little nephew, after all, divination and appearance, the little nephew knows better than Fang Xiang! In fact, Qin Xuan thought that Li Shimin was a famous Ming monarch in history, like Wei Zheng, who was unharmed again and again. Now there is a good reputation. It is very likely that Li Shimin will gain his favor, of course, he can't give it up.

And Fang Xuanling on the side thought that Qin Xuan was thinking about himself, and secretly praised in his heart: "Qin Xian's nephew is really righteous, such a matter that offends His Majesty, he is still thinking about me......" looked at Qin Xuan's eyes, all with admiration......

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study. Taizong reviewed a few books and found it boring. Throw the fold on the desk, stand up, and move slightly. Prepare to go to the martial arts palace to rest for a while. Meanwhile. Outside the door, the voice of the inner eunuch Feng Zhizhong came from. "Your Majesty. Fang Xiang and Qin Xuan ask to meet! ”

Hearing this, the corners of Taizong's mouth curved slightly, and he stretched out his hand to signal: "Xuan! "What Qin Xuan did in Hangzhou made Taizong very happy. I wanted to talk to Qin Xuan and hear how Qin Xuan found out about the salt tax, but now Qin Xuan has entered the palace by himself, which is exactly what he wants.

Fang Xuanling and Qin Xuan tidied up their clothes, and then walked slowly with Feng Zhizhong. Walking to the royal table, they all knelt down and bowed: "The minister Qiao (Qin Xuan) see Your Majesty!" ”

Taizong smiled, returned to the dragon chair, and sat down. Stretched out his hand and gestured: "Two Aiqing, please get up quickly!" ”

After Qin Xuan and Fang Xuanling got up, Taizong smiled and said, "Qin Xuan, you came just in time today, I have long wanted to hear about it." You have found out the process of Hangzhou's salt tax! ”

Qin Xuan didn't answer Taizong's words, and instead spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister came today to report something important!" ”

Hearing this, Taizong was slightly displeased, and said secretly in his heart: "I want to hear what happened in Hangzhou, but you give me a good report!" "However, Taizong's displeasure also disappeared in a moment, after all, listening to Qin Xuan's tone, he also said that Qin Xuan really had something important." Oh? What's the matter with you? ”

Seeing this, Fang Xuanling on the side couldn't help frowning, turned his head, and glanced at Qin Xuan, signaling him to pay attention to his speech. Qin Xuan's eyes at Fang Xuanling's reminder were ignored, and he said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to ask, the minister left Kyoto and went to Yuhang, and asked Fang Xiang to submit the folding book on his behalf, I don't know if Your Majesty has ever read it?" ”

Taizong was slightly stunned, and secretly thought about it for a long time before he snorted coldly: "I have read that folding book, your words are just some nonsense, martial arts are dignified and virtuous, and he is a female streamer, how can he affect the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't you hear of Su Daji, Lu Pheasant and the like?" Qin Xuan was neither humble nor arrogant, and blurted out.

Taizong was furious, stood up, stretched out his hand and pointed at Qin Xuan, and shouted: "Qin Xuan! Could it be that I am as faint as the king of the Emperor? Can't I hold a harem talent? ”

Seeing Taizong's angry eyebrows, Fang Xuanling on the side also pinched a handful of sweat for Qin Xuan, and after thinking for a while, he explained for Qin Xuan: "Your Majesty, Qin Xuan's words have no such meaning!" ”

"Huh, you don't mean that? Qin Xuan, let's listen to it, what is your original intention? ”

Seeing Taizong's anger, Qin Xuan was not empty-hearted, stabilized his mind, and kept warning himself in his heart: "Li Shimin is a famous Ming monarch in history, and he will definitely not worry about ...... with me" After a long time, Qin Xuan said: "As Your Majesty said, Your Majesty can also raise your Majesty to be a Taoist Mingjun, but ......" Speaking of this, Qin Xuan deliberately kept silent, raised his head, and looked at Taizong directly.

Taizong's anger was still subsided at this moment, and when he saw Qin Xuan stopping, he immediately said sharply: "But what? ”

Qin Xuan saw that Li Shimin had taken the bait, and immediately bowed his head and said, "The minister doesn't dare to speak!" ”

"Hmph, what else do you dare not say? But it doesn't hurt to say that I will forgive you for your innocence! ”

Hearing Taizong's words, Qin Xuan slowly spoke: "But Your Majesty will always have a time when the Dragon Emperor will return to the sky, how can Your Majesty guarantee that the next king will be as wise and martial as Your Majesty?" ”

Qin Xuan's words were like a stone hitting water, and Fang Xuanling on the side secretly swallowed a mouthful of spit, anxious for Qin Xuan. Taizong was even more shocked and angry, since he ascended the throne as the emperor, no one has ever dared to think of proposing the return of the dragon to heaven......

The imperial study was silent, Fang Xuanling didn't know how to interject, Qin Xuan was waiting for Taizong to speak, and Taizong was immersed in thinking.

After a long time, Taizong, who had come back to his senses, slapped the table fiercely and reprimanded: "Qin Xuan! Are you cursing me, or are you cursing my descendants? ”

"The minister doesn't have this intention, the minister only knows that the fate of martial arts and people is not compatible with the Tang Sheji, the minister only knows that the minister, as a courtier, should think about the Tang Sheji, and the minister only knows ......" Qin Xuan simply let go, and the sonorous words hit the prince's ears.

Taizong didn't know what to do for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Someone! ”

Walking into the two Qian Niu Wei from outside the hall, they respectfully bowed to Taizong, and before he could speak, Taizong blurted out: "Put Qin Xuan in the prison!" ”

Hearing this, Qin Xuan suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and he kept secretly scolding himself in his heart: "Qin Xuan, Qin Xuan, why do you say that you are idle to care about this matter, does he Li Shimin's country have a half-dime relationship with you......"

"Yes!" The two Qianniu guards gave another salute, and directly set up Qin Xuan, who was in a trance.

Sensing that someone had set himself up, Qin Xuan suddenly came back to his senses and blurted out: "Your Majesty, the minister has the heart of serving the country in Chicheng, and he never expected that he would end up in this field!" It's not a pity for the minister to die, but I beg Your Majesty to think twice for the Tang Sheji......"

Fang Xuanling on the side also hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded for Qin Xuan: "Your Majesty, Qin Xuan ......"

Before Fang Xuanling could say a few words, Taizong waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "I'm tired, you can go down too!" ”

Qin Xuan was taken into the heavenly prison and put in an independent cell, and the mildew in the cell was better than what Qin Xuan had seen in Guangling before. Since he hurried back to Beijing, he went directly to Fangfu, and then entered the palace, Qin Xuan was now sleepy and hungry, sitting on the straw mat, and couldn't help but be in a daze: "Hey, nosy things don't end well, why can't I remember it?" ”

I don't know how long later, a jailer walked in, walked outside the cell, and shouted, "Come and eat!" As he spoke, he handed Qin Xuan a pottery bowl.

Qin Xuan's stomach was already rumbling with hunger, and when he heard the sound, he quickly got up and walked to the railing, passing the pottery bowl through the gap. Glancing up, he almost screamed, stabilized his mind, and asked softly, "Fang Li, why did you come?" ”

Fang Li looked around, then stuck to the railing, and said softly: "Master Qin, my lord is contacting the minister of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, let me tell you, let you survive these few days!" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel refreshed. "Huh? Did Fang Xiangke ever say that there is still a livelihood in the next thing? ”

"Yes, my lord said that there is a chance that Gongzi Qin will be released from prison in this matter!"

Qin Xuan nodded slightly, and before he was about to speak, he heard a footstep, Fang Li hurriedly stood up and scolded: "Still think the food is not delicious? You think this is your kitchen, you can eat whatever you want? As he spoke, he winked at Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan knew that Fang Li deliberately said it to the visitor, so he cooperated: "But this meal is too unpalatable!" ”

Fang Li snorted coldly and reprimanded: "Do you like to eat or not!" With that, he walked away.

The bowl of rice that Qin Xuan was holding in his hand was not only steaming, but also had a few slices of mutton on it. Qin Xuan stood up directly, walked to the corner, squatted on the ground and ate "let's click".

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him: "Gongzi Qin, I'm Xiaoliu!" ”

Qin Xuan turned his head to see that it was indeed Xiao Liu, and he couldn't help but be surprised and happy, and said in a lost voice: "It's you?" How can you ...... How did you get in here? ”

Xiao Liu smiled slightly, and said softly: "My master heard that Qin Gongzi was sent to the prison by His Majesty, so let the little one come over and bring you some food!" As he spoke, he took out a few oil cakes and a jug of wine from a basket. Then he continued: "This is Fenqing from Zuixiang Building, my lord specially asked the little one to bring it!" ”

Qin Xuan couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Your master is really good, it's all at this time, and you can still think of wine!" Thank you for me! ”

"What did Gongzi Qin say, my master said that Gongzi Qin's affairs can be big or small, maybe it can become a step for Gongzi Qin to advance!"

Qin Xuan's eyes rolled and he said with a smile: "No, when did your master analyze things so thoroughly?" ”

"Where is my master's analysis, is Lord Hou ......" Xiao Liu blurted out, and when he said this, he realized that he had missed his mouth, and hurriedly shut up.

Qin Xuan smiled. "Thank you, little sixth brother, if you can go out next, you will definitely come to thank you......"
