Chapter 483: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves (1)
When I got out of the Yide Palace, it was already dark, and when I asked the hour, it was already four o'clock, Li Zhen was shocked to find that it was a full hour and a half to talk with the old man, although the stomach was already hungry, but the mood was very good, after all, Li Zhen had come to this dynasty since he came, and he had not talked with his father so much, and it was even more rare to reach a consensus on current affairs. didn't delay much in the palace, walked out of the palace gate at a gallop, and planned to ride a horse directly back to the East Palace, but just out of the palace gate, I saw Gao Heng and a group of guards waiting outside the cordon with lanterns in their hands, first stunned, and then walked a few steps, came to the front, glanced at the generals of the guards, and asked with a smile: Why, the palace is not allowed to wait, why are they all back?
Li Zhen didn't say this, but as soon as he finished speaking, all the generals of the guards turned their heads away, and everyone looked at Yan Eighteen who was hiding behind and leaning forward and leaning back with a smile on their faces, just like a pack of wolves looking at lambs, and they wanted to eat Yan Eighteen alive. /。
It's none of my business, I said that I would bring my brothers to have a good time, haha, we have all taken out the money, but unfortunately there is nowhere to spend it, but I can't complain about it. Yan Eighteen didn't care about the generals' cannibalistic eyes at all, and laughed and quibbled.
Li Zhen knew early on that the depression in Luoyang City was choking enough, and it was a place where there was money and nowhere to spend, which was even worse than the small county town in Guanzhong, especially for a group of high-minded generals of the pro-guard army, even more so, when Yan Eighteen pretended to shout to have a treat, Li Zhen had already guessed that it would be such an ending, and at this time, it was interesting to see the grievances of the pro-guard generals who were unwilling to be deceived by them, Li Zhen immediately couldn't help laughing out loud, turned over on the horse's back, raised the horsewhip and said: Go, go back to the palace, Today's palace treats, reward the three armies, let's go! As soon as the words fell, the whip and the horse ran towards the East Palace along the avenue outside the palace wall, and the generals of the personal guard saw that Li Zhen had left, and they couldn't care about being angry with Yan Eighteen anymore, so they jumped on their horses, each beat their horses and accelerated, and followed.
Li Zhen's family was sent to Luoyang early in the morning, at this time had already received the news of Li Zhen's arrival in Luoyang, from the moment of the unitary time, a group of concubines held their babies, gathered near the entrance of the East Palace to wait for Li Zhen to return, and then left and right did not wait for anyone, Li Chun, Li Dang and other little babies were so hungry that they couldn't stand it, wow wow straight crying, making a lot of concubines in a hurry, had to let the nurse go, coaxed to sleep, but Pei Yan and others were always at ease, insisted on waiting at the palace gate, the darker it was, The hearts of the concubines became more and more chaotic, and they were afraid that Li Zhen would suffer a loss on the old man's side, but they were worried that they would be worried, with the imperial court system, and the concubines did not dare to send someone into the palace to ask.
Greetings to Your Highness. Just when Li Zhen and a group of guards and generals walked into the gate with a smile, the four concubines led a large group of palace maids and eunuchs to meet them, and suddenly, Yingying Yanyan's greeting suddenly sounded, and Li Zhen was really startled without paying attention, and when she saw that the faces of the concubines were full of concern under the light, Li Zhen's heart felt a burst of warmth, and she hurriedly strode forward, helped Pei Yan up, and explained with a smile: Yan'er, my father stayed in the palace and talked back, I came back late, so I was worried, and it was not from the palace.
Your Highness has worked hard. Pei Yan lit the light of the torch, saw Li Zhen's dusty appearance, although she was smiling on her face, but she couldn't cover her tiredness, she felt a pain in her heart, replied gently, and then raised her voice and said: Come, wait for His Highness to freshen up and prepare dinner.
Li Zhen has been on the road for most of the day, and he is covered in dust, so he really should freshen up, but at this time, he has in his heart that he has not exchanged views with the two strategists on the immigration matter that he talked about with Li Shimin before, and he is in a hurry to talk about it in detail with the two strategists, and he really doesn't want to waste more time. At this point, he paused, turned around, looked at the generals of the guards with great interest, and then continued: Yan'er, inform the dining room to prepare more wine and food, and the palace will reward the whole palace, so let's do it.
Yes, Your Highness. Although Pei Yan didn't know why Li Zhen did this, she didn't ask for the reason in a word, but just replied respectfully, and went to order Wang Binghe, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace, not to mention it, and the generals of the guards originally thought that Li Zhen's previous words were just a joke, but at this time, when they saw that Li Zhen really did this, they all made a fuss, and everyone was happily coaxing, and Li Zhen just smiled indifferently, and strode towards the study.
Mo and Na only left a few days earlier than Li Zhen, but because they had not been trapped by the heavy snow, they arrived in the Eastern Capital many days earlier than Li Zhen, this time I heard that Li Zhen entered the palace as soon as he came back, and he did not return to the palace for a long time, so he already knew that Li Zhen and Li Shimin must have something important to discuss, so there was no need for someone to summon them, and the two strategists waited in the study early, and when they saw Li Zhen walking in with a smile on his face, the two who were talking quietly got up and stepped forward to greet Li Zhen.
Sit down, today I met in the palace, and my father and the emperor made some plans on current affairs, even if there is some consensus, please also ask the two gentlemen to help discuss it again; Li Zhen sat down, picked up a pair of silver chopsticks, pulled the food plate sent by the little eunuchs to the front, and pulled it up without paying much attention to the image, and while eating, he repeated the detailed conversation with the old man. Li Zhen said briskly, but the more the two strategists listened, the more solemn their faces became, and at the end, their faces were already tense, and Li Zhen couldn't help but be stunned, put down most of the white rice he had used, and looked at the two strategists suspiciously: Why, did this palace say something wrong?
After Mo and Na glanced at each other, Na Long took the lead in speaking: Your Highness is not wrong, only; At this point, Naron paused visibly before sighing, but the timing was slightly off.
Timing off? Li Zhen was stunned for a moment, but soon came to her senses, and already knew that the deviation that Na Long said was just about immigration, but she didn't care, and said with a slight smile: There was an incident on the way to Luoyang this time, which made this palace deeply inspired, and this thing is like this; Li Zhen recounted the incident of meeting He Laosan on the road, but did not say that he met Wu Meiniang, and said with a smile at the end: In the first life, you must always do some practical things, and it is not in vain to come to this world once, and this palace is the prince, since it should be the most important thing for the community, this is just a duty, even if there are some blames, the palace will bear it together.
Li Zhen said everything to this, and the two strategists really didn't want to say anything more, but the solemn look on their faces did not reduce much because of this, but seeing Mo Li, he frowned, shook the feather fan in his hand, and said in a slightly worried tone: Although the immigration move is beneficial to the community, it is easy to grudge with the surname of the high family.
Mo Li's words are very polite, in fact, the situation is serious, the old and young Guanzhong, the Bashu people are muddy, when there is no big move, I can't see how many fish are in the water, once the immigrants are sparse, those fish will have to surface, in this way, the interests of all the gate valves will be touched, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a good impression of Li Zhen, the initiator, not to mention that the princes who are already peeping at the position of the prince will definitely not let go of this great opportunity that may shake Li Zhen's foundation, It is common to take advantage of the situation to stir up some chaos in it, and if you are not careful, Li Zhen will really become a lonely person, and this is really not a good thing for Li Zhen's imperial cause, of course, if Li Zhen ascends the throne and sits firmly on the throne, and then toss like this, although it is also troublesome, as long as Li Zhen has the imperial power and military power in his hands, even if the family of the gate lords is dissatisfied, there is no trick, this is the core of the timing problem said by the two major strategists.
Li Zhen was a person with a smart mind, how could he not hear the unfinished meaning of Mo Li's words, but Li Zhen did not open her mouth to explain again, but just smiled confidently and looked at the two strategists quietly.
The two strategists have been following Li Zhen for a long time, and when they saw Li Zhen doing this, they knew that Li Zhen's mind had been decided, and they were afraid that there would be no easier, so they did not persuade each other again, and after exchanging glances with each other, Na Long said: Your Highness, although this matter is beneficial to the community, however, if it is not handled properly, it is very easy to make a big mess.
Yes, what Brother Na said is very true, the Fang and Du families are the key to it, if there is a foreshadowing, things will be much easier, if this matter is successful, His Royal Highness's position in the eyes of the Holy Lord should be as stable as Mount Tai, it can be regarded as a loss and a gain. As soon as Na Long's voice fell, Mo Li immediately said.
Well, it's so decided, early tomorrow morning, the palace will first invite the room to enter the palace and say that it will be, as for the Du family, please ask Mr. Na to go on a trip, it's not early, the palace is a little lacking, today will be discussed here, the two gentlemen are at will, the palace is one step ahead. Although Li Zhen was in good health, he had been on the road for a day, and he had talked to the old man for a long time, at this time he was already tired, and when he saw that things were generally discussed, he had no intention of fighting, he got up with a smile, and after an explanation, he walked out of the study, accompanied by a group of small eunuchs, and rushed to the bath, planning to freshen up and then determine where to stay tonight, but unexpectedly, just entered the door of the bath, and saw that Salanyini had already been born there, and then looked at the fog steaming, The bumpy body of Saranyini, who was only dressed in a small clothes, Li Zhen's heart rolled through a burst of heat, and she looked at Saranyini in a daze, and she didn't come back to her senses for a while, and the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting on the side saw that this scene was too ambiguous, so they all quietly retreated with interest, and only Li Zhen and Saranyini stood opposite each other in the huge bath.
Goo. Looking at Saranyini's angry figure, Li Zhen's mouth immediately became dry, so she swallowed her saliva very unvividly, which provoked Salanyini, who was originally ashamed, couldn't help but giggle.
Okay, little Nizi, dare to make fun of this palace and see how this palace cleans up. Although Li Zhen was thick-skinned, she was a little stupid when she was laughed at by Saranyini, hehe, she smiled, hugged Salanyini's small waist, hugged her in her arms, jumped up, didn't even have time to take off her clothes, and jumped off the bath, and there was a large splash of water when she landed. Ah, I exclaimed, before she came back to her senses, I saw Li Zhen leaning over, already kissing her small mouth, after a moment of light picking, under the emotion, Saranyini was already delicate/panting, her face was as red as a cherry, and Li Zhense/heart was moved, regardless of the fact that she ripped off Salanyini's thin little clothes, and wildly jumped up, and in an instant the warm bath was a beautiful scene of spring;
It's snowing again, just stopped for a day, the snow is falling again, the wind rises in the middle of the night, the goose feather snow is not over at once, although the snow is a good year, it is a happy event, but for the elderly, this cold winter is not very easy to survive, ordinary people can still take advantage of the snow to hide in the bed to sleep lazy or something, but for the first prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling, there is no such blessing, although the cough and wheezing are terrible, but still have to support the sick body to Shangshu Province on duty, before he can cover the chair hot, A eunuch was sent to the east palace to summon him, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had important matters to discuss, and asked the prime minister to go.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited, Fang Xuanling does not dare to slack off, not to mention that Fang Xuanling also knows that Li Zhen rarely interferes in government affairs on weekdays, but if there is an invitation, it must be an extremely important thing, even if the body is uncomfortable at this time, Fang Xuanling does not dare to delay more, he supports the sick body, summons the people to put on the carriage, and hurries to the East Palace, just arrived at the gate of the East Palace, and saw that Wang Binghe, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace, had already led people to carry a soft sedan chair and waited there, and he was not polite, so he invited Fang Xuanling to get on the sedan chair, So he rushed all the way to the study.
See His Royal Highness. As soon as he got down from the soft sedan chair, Fang Xuanling raised his eyes and saw that Li Zhen was braving the heavy snow, and he was already waiting outside the Qide Palace.
Looking at Fang Xuanling's old and haggard face, Li Zhen's heart was sour, how could she let Fang Xuanling give herself a big gift, with a copy of her left hand, she snatched the umbrella in the hand of a little eunuch next to her, covering Fang Xuanling's body, and at the same time stretched out her right hand and supported Fang Xuanling's body that was about to kneel, and said with a smile: Fang Xiang doesn't have to be polite, today's snow is big, and he shouldn't have disturbed Fang Xiang at this time, but the palace encountered a difficulty, so he had to invite Fang Xiang to come and talk about it.
His Royal Highness is polite, and it is the responsibility of the old minister to share his worries for His Highness. Fang Xuanling was not moved by Li Zhen's Corporal Lixian's actions, but just bowed down and replied calmly.
Li Zhen knew Fang Xuanling's temperament, and she would not be dissatisfied with her cold reaction, so she smiled and said: Fang Xiang, it's cold outside, let's go to the study and discuss it. As soon as the voice fell, he didn't give Fang Xuanling a chance to break free, held Fang Xuanling's arm, and marched all the way into the warm study, gave a seat, and made hot tea, then picked up a book from the desk, and handed it to Fang Xuanling with a smile: Fang Xiang, the matter discussed in this compromise has been discussed by the palace with his father, but the matter is particularly undecided.
Fang Xuanling had already guessed that Li Zhen had a problem in government affairs to solve by himself, at this time, seeing Li Zhen straight to the point and bringing out the fold, he didn't dare to slack off, he took the fold with both hands, only looked at it hurriedly, his brows were locked, a pair of old eyes flashed, he didn't say a word for a long time, and Li Zhen didn't say anything, just smiled and waited for Fang Xuanling to make a statement.
Fang Xuanling, as the prime minister, knows that Bashu and Guanzhong are now due to the rapid increase in population, and the granting of land has reached the point where it is unsustainable, and he has long had plans to emigrate, but because this matter is too involved, he has never dared to mention it, at this time, seeing that Li Zhen dared to put forward this strategy at the risk of offending the nobles of Guanlong, his heart was really shocked, and after silently thinking about it, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Zhen's face, and said quietly: Your Highness, this policy is good, but Your Highness can't mention it, if Your Highness doesn't mind the old minister stealing the credit, this fold will be made by the old minister.
This excerpt is a job to offend people, how can Li Zhen not know, at this time, seeing that Fang Xuanling is willing to take this matter into his arms, he is very moved in his heart, but this is not the purpose of Li Zhen inviting Fang Xuanling to come, so he smiled and waved his hand and said: Thank you for the love of Fang Xiang, but this folding of the palace can be from the top, and the palace invites Fang Xiang to come, just to understand whether this strategy is feasible?
Fang Xuanling did not answer this question directly, but asked: Who does His Highness want to take care of this matter?
Li Zhen's mind is very keen, as soon as she heard Fang Xuanling's question, she knew that Fang Xuanling herself also agreed with the immigration, and what she was worried about was the ability of the executor, so she smiled and said: Fang Xiang should be the best person to preside over this matter, but this matter is complicated, this palace really can't bear to overwork Fang Xiang, well, if possible, please put Fang Xiang on his name, this palace recommends two people to do specific things, one is Longzhou Thorn Shi Cui Mingli, and the other is the counselor Du Xuanwang, I don't know what Fang Xiang thinks?
Fang Xuanling frowned, and did not speak immediately, but said after a deep sigh: It's good to add one more person, the old minister thinks that Su Xuan, the head of the household department, can also participate in his affairs.
Well? Su Miao? As soon as Li Zhen heard this, she was stunned, and then suddenly came to her senses, and applauded: Okay, then it's decided, there is a labor room.
Don't dare, if you can do your best for the community, the old minister is to fight this old bone is also deserved, if His Royal Highness has nothing to do, and let the old minister retire first. Fang Xuanling got up, bowed respectfully, and was about to leave, Li Zhen didn't stay long, smiled and accompanied Fang Xuanling out of the Qide Palace, and sent someone to send Fang Xuanling out of the East Palace with a soft sedan chair, and then turned back to the study, just sat down, and saw Na Long walking in, his face was full of strange looks, and he was stunned;
