The night is already very deep, the entire Chang'an City has sunk into sleep, there is silence outside the palace, Li Zhen silently walked on the avenue in the palace, the footsteps actually stirred up a tight echo, just like his mood surging ups and downs - how many years have passed, the hardships and dangers experienced have already been countless, but this danger is an unprecedented experience - from the study of the Ganlu Palace, Li Zhen suddenly found that his back was already dripping with sweat, it was not because of the heat, but cold sweat!

The major event of the dynasty is the abolition of the establishment, which can make the old man shout out that he wants to abolish the establishment, which shows that the old man is really angry, even if Li Zhen cleverly set up an ambush behind him, which can be regarded as temporarily calming the anger in the old man's heart, but this matter will not end there, and the sequelae will not only be there, but also not small. If possible, Li Zhenshi doesn't want to have the slightest conflict with the old man, but the facts are in front of him, but Li Zhen can't be allowed to back down a little - since ancient times, the two powerhouses cannot coexist, which when Li Zhen ascended to the throne of the prince, he was mentally prepared, and he also made a lot of efforts to avoid the situation of father and son fighting, however, time has become the key in the key - if the old man can still have twenty or thirty years, Li Zhen is willing to take a few more steps back, in exchange for a smooth transition to the court, but it is a pity that the day is not a holiday, Many things are not what they want, but they have to do it, and only the parties themselves can know the bitterness, and now, the most realistic problem in front of Li Zhen is how to go on in the future.

"Look, it's His Highness who has come out."

"Your Highness is here."

……

The kings and ministers in front of the palace have long since dispersed, but a group of East Palace guards are still gathered in the small square in front of the imperial city, not only Ying Da, Tie Rulong and other personal guards, but also Yan Shiba, Gao Heng and others, who were originally ordered to capture Zhang Liang, also led the East Palace guards to the front of the imperial city, although they all stood silently, but everyone was vigilant, and a faction was ready to move at any time, until they saw Li Zhen's tall and burly figure appear in front of the palace gate, a group of guards relaxed and hurried forward, None of them said anything, but their expressions spoke for themselves.

"Your Highness, are you alright?" Among the generals, Yan Eighteen had the highest status, and when he saw Li Zhen walking out of the palace gate, he hurriedly flashed, and when he came closer, he asked with a little nervousness.

"It's okay, go back to the palace." Li Zhen saw the complacent predicament on the faces of the generals, but the concern in everyone's eyes could not be more obvious, and a sense of emotion surged in his heart, but he didn't say much, just reached out and patted Yan Eighteen's shoulder, smiled gently, and then got into the carriage......

"See Your Highness." In the study room of the East Palace, as soon as the two strategists Mo and Na, who were sitting in danger, saw Li Zhen coming in, they all stood up and respectfully saluted Li Zhen.

"Sit down." Li Zhen gently waved her hand, slowly walked to the top and sat down, a handsome face was full of exhaustion, glanced at the two strategists, and said with a long sigh: "The matter is done now, and the result is still unpredictable......" Li Zhen slowly described everything tonight in detail, and at the end, rubbed the swollen sun**, and said with a little frustration: "Once this matter is over, there will be many follow-up hands, and my father is afraid that he will be suspicious." ”

After Li Zhen finished speaking, the two strategists were speechless, after all, when Li Zhen launched this plan before, the two strategists had already analyzed the key to Li Zhen's stakes, and it had already been decided that it would be such a result, but now, there is no regret medicine to take, facing Li Zhen's emotion, the two strategists didn't know how to comfort for a while.

"Your Highness, there will still be a dispute in the early days after tomorrow, and Your Highness must not be careless." It was not a solution to sit still, and seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Nalong hurriedly led the topic to the upcoming court dispute.

"Yes, what Brother Na said is true, although His Royal Highness the King of Wei has nothing to do with this matter this time, it is inevitable that there will be suspicions of melon fields and plums, even if His Royal Highness does not say it, the rest of the kings are afraid that they will not let it go easily, and there will be some excitement to see at that time." Mo Li knew that what Na Long said was just to divert Li Zhen's attention, but he still answered with a smile.

"That's not necessarily, according to the palace, those boys are all related to Zhang Liang, no one can get out, really to the court, may not dare to make a fuss about this matter, but I don't know what my father thinks in his heart, well, if Zhang Liang doesn't die, he is afraid of endless troubles." Li Zhen didn't think that the kings would use Zhang Liang's affairs to deal with the King of Wei, but he was very worried that the old man would forcibly erase Zhang Liang's charges in order to be able to correct Zhang Liang's performance.

Although Li Zhen's words were not clearly said, the meaning of the words revealed that he intended to contact the ministers and completely cause Zhang Liang to die. ”

"Hmm." Li Zhen nodded noncommittally, then shook her head again, and did not talk about this topic in depth, but muttered for a while: "Why is Wang Taizhong like this?" ”

After Wang Taizhong lost his official position two years ago because of the Xiangzhou military ration case, several efforts failed to reinstate the official, and then Li Zhen saw that he still had some ability, so he ordered the "Rising Sun" to contact him and recruit him to his command, but did not put it in the position of a subordinate official in the East Palace, but let him wander among the powerful in the name of trying to reinstate him, so as to collect some information, this time Wang Taizhong lobbied Zhang Liang was arranged by Li Zhen, and the person who gave the specific order was Nalong. At this time, hearing Li Zhen's question, Na Long hurriedly replied: "If you go back to Your Highness, Weichen has already arranged it, and after the matter is settled, he will be sent out of Beijing." ”

"It's okay, although this son has some skills, he is overly keen on his career, so he will grind for a while, and he may be able to come in handy in the future." Li Zhen recognized Wang Taizhong's ability, and did not plan to unload the mill and kill the donkey, after giving a command, he got up and planned to leave, but unexpectedly Mo Li suddenly said: "As soon as Zhang Liang dies, Your Majesty will neglect the government, and Your Highness still needs to be prepared." ”

"Huh?" Li Zhen had already raised her foot and was about to take a step, but when she heard Mo Li's words, she immediately stopped, looked at Mo Li with a puzzled face, and sighed lightly.

Mo Li didn't explain, just shook the feather fan with a smile, and said with a mysterious look: "The mountain people have their own clever calculations, Your Highness just needs to know in your heart, and everything will be self-evident when the time comes." ”

Seeing that Mo Li refused to say it explicitly, Li Zhen didn't ask anymore, so he waved his hand and said, "It's getting late, the two gentlemen should rest early, and the palace will go first." As soon as the words fell, he walked out of the study and turned towards the backyard, and when he got the backyard, he realized that it was really late, and the palaces were already dark and blind, without a trace of light, he couldn't help but pause, frowned and thought about it, and then strode towards Chen Qianniang's bedroom.

Chen Qianniang's position is actually not high, just Chenghui, among the concubines, it is not the most beautiful, in terms of appearance, not the most beautiful, when it comes to the degree of favor, it is not the most favored by Li Zhen, but Chen Qianniang is the most respected concubine by Li Zhen - Li Zhen has always ignored the affairs of the harem, and Pei Yan, who should be the master of the harem, will not and does not want to take care of things, so the burden of the entire harem is picked up by Chen Qianniang, it is rare to be shrewd and capable, actually managed the huge harem in an orderly manner with his own efforts, and what is even more rare is that Chen Qianniang never asks about government affairs, and never seeks benefits for her mother's relatives under the pretense of public help - her father and brother have been taken back to Beijing by Li Zhen from exile for more than a year, but Chen Qianniang has never mentioned to Li Zhen about seeking a job for her father and brother, but privately persuaded her father and brother not to make trouble for Li Zhen. The first concubine that came to mind was Chen Qianniang, of course, Li Zhen's move was not to pour out her troubles, but just to find a gentle harbor to dock at.

At this time, it was the third watch in the middle of the night, and Chen Qianniang had already fallen asleep, but as soon as she heard that the palace maids said that His Royal Highness the Prince had arrived, she hurriedly got up, and was about to change her clothes to greet her, Li Zhen had already walked into the bedroom, so busy that Chen Qianniang couldn't even take care of it, only wearing a small coat and long hair to meet her, and blessed Li Zhen and said: "The concubine has seen His Highness." ”

"Qianniang, this palace is late, and I disturbed Er's good dream." Li Zhen saw the sleepiness on Chen Qianniang's face, and a burst of guilt surged in her heart, she walked a few steps, stretched out her hand to help Chen Qianniang's body, and said softly.

"It is a blessing for Qianniang to be able to serve His Highness." Chen Qianniang lowered her head and answered, then took Li Zhen's hand and walked to the couch, and said gently: "Your Highness, you must be tired when you are busy at this time, and let the concubine take care of it for you?" ”

"It's fine." Li Zhen replied indispensably, and Chen Qianniang served and changed her clothes, and lay down comfortably on the couch, letting Chen Qianniang hold it with a pair of small hands, a burst of comfort hit, her eyelids became heavier, and she sank into sleep unconsciously......

Li Zhen slept soundly, but there were a lot of people who had insomnia this night, Li Tai, the king of Wei, was one of them, tonight's blow to him was really huge, so big that it was almost unbearable, and it was just a matter of taking advantage of the situation to cut Li Zhen's military power, and even Zhang Liang such an important minister folded in, which made Li Tai feel very painful and heartbroken, as soon as he returned to his own house, he sent someone to ask Su Miao, the head of the household department, to come to the house to discuss, but Su Miao did not come, but let people say a word, saying that he wanted Li Tai to be less impatient.

Calm down? At this point where he lost his wife and broke his soldiers, how could Li Tai not be impatient, so angry that he didn't sleep all night, and broke countless furnishings, making the whole palace unpeaceful, and he was tight until dawn, looking for a big attack from the beginning, and beat several unblinded slaves to the ground, and was making a fuss, when he suddenly saw Su Miao slowly and leisurely shaking in, Li Tai was surprised, and pounced on him like a savior, almost greeted in a pitiful tone: "Uncle, you can be regarded as coming, Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang, alas, ......"

Su Miao didn't pay attention to Li Tai's greeting, just looked at the messy study with anticipation, frowned unhappily, and didn't speak, just stared at Li Tai so straight that Li Tai blushed, and said with a smile: "Uncle, it's messy here, please go to the back garden to sit down for a while, and Rong Xiaowang will ask for one or two." ”

"Hmm." Seeing this, Li Tai hurriedly followed, and ordered the people of the palace to burn incense and make tea, and the guests and hosts sat down in a small pavilion near the pool.

"Uncle, you should know everything about last night, now the situation is probably in great difficulty, Xiao Wang's heart is in turmoil, I really don't know how to deal with it, and I ask my uncle to help Xiao Wang come up with a charter, and Xiao Wang will follow it as one." As soon as the guests and hosts sat down, Li Tai couldn't wait to ask questions.

Su Miao didn't speak immediately, but picked up the tea bowl, blew on the tea, blew the tea powder aside, and then took a shallow sip, didn't swallow it, just held it in his mouth, seemed to be tasting the fragrance of the new tea, and after a long silence, he looked up at Li Tai and asked quietly: "What are your highness's plans now?" ”

Li Tai didn't expect Su Miao to not open his mouth, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he kicked the ball back, and when he landed in the Dragon Invincible Bookstore, he was stunned, his face changed slightly, and after taking a few breaths, he said sullenly: "Zhang Shilang is not guilty of this catastrophe, it is really caused by Xiaoba's trouble, this king will not rest with him, and he will definitely fight with that fight in front of his father!" ”

Su Miaosen smiled coldly, put down the tea bowl in his hand, looked at Li Tai, and said with a serious face: "Hey, do you want to kill yourself?" Then please forgive the old man for not daring to accompany him. ”

"Ah......, this ......" Li Tai was stunned when he heard Su Miao's words, and he really didn't know what to say for a while, and after his face changed for a while, he said curtly: "Uncle, are you joking?" ”

"Jokes? The old man never laughs, if His Royal Highness really acts like this, the old man really can't accompany him to the end. Su Miao blinked and replied unceremoniously.

"......" Li Tai was speechless for a while, and then he bowed his hand with a bitter face and said, "I would like to hear it in detail." ”

Seeing that Li Tai had lowered his posture, Su Miao was no longer reserved, nodded and said, "Why did Zhang Shilang pass?" The left and right are just touching the prince's dragon scales, how can this saint have countless in his heart, however, it is a big mistake to collect 500 fake sons and privately purchase heavy armor, His Royal Highness can know the old things of the Xuanwu Gate back then? ”

"Ah......" Li Tai's mouth opened widely, and his heart beat wildly - although the inside story of "The Change of Xuanwumen" is not recorded in the annals of history, however, as a prince, Li Tai is naturally clear about it, and at this moment he suddenly remembered Zhang Liang's role in it, and his heart was already sudden, and then he thought that if he really tried his best to speak for Zhang Liang in the court, it was hard to guarantee that the old man would not think that Zhang Liang did what he did was on the orders of him Li Tai, if so, he Li Tai jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it away, Cold sweat rolled out involuntarily, Baza pursed his lips, and said anxiously: "Uncle, this, how should this be?" If so, if Xiao Ba really holds on to this matter, then Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang ......"

"Willing, willing, can give up to get." Su Miao shook his head with emotion and said: "This is far inferior to the Holy Highness, even compared with the Prince, it is not as good as it, and now in this situation, not only the Holy Lord, but even the Prince will never use Zhang Liang's matter to treat His Highness, unless His Royal Highness should buckle this basin on his head." ”

"Oh?" As soon as he heard that he would not have anything to do with Zhang Liang, Li Tai's heart stabilized a little, he frowned quickly, thought about it, but still couldn't figure out the key to it, and in desperation, he could only look at Su Miao bitterly and said, "Why is this?" ”

Su Miao looked at Li Tai meaningfully, and said slowly: "My dynasty system is divided, but as soon as the prince is established, all the kings must go out of Beijing to control the Quartet, however, why is it that the prince has been on the throne for more than two years, and the kings not only did not leave Beijing, but participated in the government and politics?" There is no other, because the prince is strong today, the prince is also strong, the two strong can not stand side by side, the intention of leaving the kings in Beijing, a dragon invincible book house is a balance on the prince's strength, two, it is also a buffer, to avoid the direct conflict between the two powers, therefore, from this point of view, neither His Majesty nor the prince will take action to destroy this situation, even if the kings have a small mistake, the two parties will open their eyes and close their eyes and pretend not to see, but if the kings are not interested, they insist on turning the sky, and they are afraid that day it will really collapse. ”

Li Tai is not stupid, Su Miao has said it so thoroughly, he understands it, the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he took a few breaths and said: "What my uncle said is very true, Xiao Wang has been taught, however, Zhang Liang's matter has been completed, and all the previous arrangements have been put into practice, and now the prince is full-fledged, and Xiao Wang is weak, what should I do?" ”

Su Miao did not answer Li Tai's question directly, but reached out and dipped it in the water in the tea bowl, wrote six big characters on a few words, pointed to those words and said, "Your Highness, please see." ”

Li Tai tilted his head, glanced at the words, his eyeballs burst out, and he muttered: "Goguryeo, Xuanwumen? This, this is starting from the river? ”

As soon as Su Miao heard Li Tai read out, he immediately glanced at Li Tai with dissatisfaction, stretched out his hand and erased the words on the table, and then looked back at the people waiting outside the pavilion and said coldly: "You all retreat, don't listen to the call, don't get close to this pavilion within ten zhang, violators will be killed!" All the subordinates knew Su Miao's status in Li Tai's mind, and when they saw him speak, they didn't dare to slack off, so they hurriedly responded to the promise, and each retreated into the distance.

After the people retreated, Su Miao leaned to Li Tai's ear, almost biting Li Tai's ear, and elaborated in detail, hearing Li Tai nodding his head constantly, and the smile on his face became brighter......
