Chapter 193: The Change of the Eldest Sun Family (4)
There is not much information on the note, and it is said that there is a mess in the palace - shortly after noon today, a little eunuch in the Yuande Hall somehow had a dispute with several little eunuchs in the Min'an Palace, and after being beaten up, he was unwilling, and went back to beckon a group of eunuchs who were good on weekdays to seek revenge, and the two sides had a big fight in private, and "coincidentally" was bumped into by Cui Cairen who was passing by, so Cui Cairen, who was already good friends with Yang Shufei, unceremoniously ordered all the little eunuchs of Min'an Palace to be taken down, Going to be sent to the Ministry of Internal Service for severe punishment, but the interesting thing is: Wucai people were just about to go to Min'an Palace, and they bumped into each other on the way, and when they asked the reason, they immediately quit, and they quarreled with Cui Cairen, both sides were not small, although they didn't do it, but the sound of scolding was shocking, so that things could be a big deal, and the eunuchs of the Inner Service Province couldn't persuade these two talented people who were angry at all, and the people from the palaces gathered more and more, and at the end, even the old man was shocked.
Li Shimin, who was originally upset about the court situation, was in a hurry, and ordered the eunuchs who participated in the fight to be beaten with thirty court rods and rushed to the Yeting Palace to serve as hard labor, and ordered the two talented people to be punished for not knowing the general situation, and ordered each to pay a certain fine, this matter should be considered over here, but the problem is that the palace is a nest of right and wrong, and now that there is such a trouble, the rumors in the palace about the establishment of the queen immediately spread, and they all said that they have noses and eyes, and there are only two targets - Concubine Yan De and Concubine Yang Shu, These words came and went to Wei Guifei's ears, and the unwilling Wei Guifei stabbed the matter to the front of the palace, heh, but Li Shimin was very angry, and he made three wills in a row, strictly prohibiting this rumor in the palace, how can it be difficult to prevent the mouth from preventing Sichuan, the rumor is still a rumor, not only in the palace, but also outside the palace, how "lively"!
"This Wu Meiniang is really not a fuel-efficient lamp!" Li Zhen finished reading the note, and some people muttered helplessly, without him, Li Zhen didn't believe that this matter was a coincidence, and he didn't believe that Cui and Wu were both at the right time, the smell of conspiracy here is too strong, but well, Li Zhen didn't care about the affairs in the palace, and he didn't bother to think about it, besides, since Xiao Yu proposed the proposal in court, Li Zhen expected that there would inevitably be a big chaos in the palace, and now this situation is not too unexpected for Li Zhen. The only thing that Li Zhen can't understand is what role Wu Meiniang plays in it - Concubine Yan is a very low-key person, of course, the city government is also very deep, and she will never be unable to see the situation in front of her, with her person, it is impossible to let the martial arts people stand out for themselves, so it is very suspicious to live and die to stick to the martial arts people who want to stick to Concubine Yan, not to mention that Li Zhen knew that Wu Meiniang hooked up with Li Zhi in the previous life, it is the criticism that Yuan Tiangang gave to Li Zhi in this life, "When you meet Wu Zexing", it is enough to make Li Zhen vigilant.
"Your Highness, the martial arts people are also doing this out of good intentions, basically to create some momentum for Concubine Yan." Na Long did not have the "ability" of Li Zhen who was "familiar" with the future generations, and seeing that Li Zhen's face was not good-looking, he whispered.
Kindness? Cut, Wu Po Niang is a careerist, as long as she can climb up, what can't she do, damn, even her own daughter dares to strangle to death with her own hands, there will be something she doesn't dare to do. As soon as Li Zhen remembered Wu Meiniang's vicious methods in that time and space in the later generations, her scalp was numb, but these things were really not enough for outsiders, and Li Zhen didn't want to explain more, but she was secretly vigilant in her heart, muttered for a while, and changed the topic: "Mr. Na, this king has confessed to track down Yuan Tiangang's whereabouts, so eyebrow-raising?" ”
Since the battle of the Imperial City, not only Yuan Tiangang disappeared without a trace, but even those Shaolin monks did not see the Shaolin Temple, all evaporated from the world, Li Zhen ordered the "Rising Sun" to comprehensively track down the whereabouts of these people, but never been able to gain, Na Long, as the general person in charge of the "Rising Sun", has a heavy responsibility for this, at this time listening to Li Zhen asked, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, with a bitter face, shook my head and said: "Back to Your Highness, a certain incompetent, I haven't got any information now, but I know that these people have not left the Beijing Division, But it's not in the palace, and the specific location is still being investigated. ”
Whether Yuan Tiangang or that group of Shaolin monks are martial arts masters, this is a force that is enough to turn the situation around, considering that the situation in Beijing is delicate now, there is such a group of people, it really makes Li Zhen feel like a man, of course, Li Zhen also knows very well that this group of people are all skilled, and it is difficult for others to find out if they really want to hide their traces in the huge Beijing Division, besides, the old man can quietly transfer such a group of masters, and naturally there is a way to hide people. The only thing to worry about is what the old man wants to do to keep this group of guys at hand, to guard against the princes? Maybe there is such a possibility, but it doesn't seem to be necessary, after all, Li Ji's army has arrived near the Beijing Division, and it will be possible to arrive in Beijing in a few days, plus the 10,000 elite soldiers brought back by Xue Wanche, now the defense of the Beijing Division is very complete, not to mention other princes, even Li Zhen, who is in the hands of the army, does not have the courage to cause chaos, the existence of this group of masters must have other intentions, but it is a pity that Li Zhen has thought about it for a long time and has not figured out what the purpose of the old man is to play such a hand.
If you don't understand, don't think about it, Li Zhen has never been a character who is easy to drill the horns of the bull, at this time, seeing that he couldn't think through it for a while, he reached out and stroked his forehead, put this matter behind, and said in a deep voice: "Just hurry up and investigate this matter, well, how is the progress at the end of the Changsun Mansion?" ”
Seeing that Li Zhen no longer asked about the whereabouts of Yuan Tiangang and the others, Na Long secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, you have received accurate information, the eldest grandson Chengliang has already begun to act, this person has begun to secretly contact the officials of the eldest grandson family after today's application, it is believed that he will go to the Wei Wangfu tomorrow to meet His Royal Highness the King of Wei, 'Yan Wu' has prepared to stop all relevant matters, just wait for His Royal Highness to order." ”
This order is not easy to make, although Li Zhen has already made up his mind to put the eldest grandson Wuji together, taking advantage of the relationship between the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Tai, and also formulated a relatively careful deployment and arrangement, there is almost no possibility of leaking the heavenly opportunity, but the problem is that there is no absolute in the world, if there is a case, this plan fails or is spread out, the sacrifice of the chess pieces is small, in case the fake comes true and completely pushes the eldest grandson family to Li Tai's side, then the fun is too big, Li Zhen can't think about it more, after hesitating for a while, Only then did he grit his teeth and said, "Okay, notify me, then let's start." ”
It was the first time for Na Long to preside over such a major operation alone, as soon as he got Li Zhen's permission, a trace of excitement immediately flashed on his face, and he responded to the promise, and walked out of the study, and went to arrange the relevant matters without mentioning it, he was excited, but Li Zhen was a little uncertain, frowned and walked to the window, looking at the dark night sky, thinking about his thoughts sullenly......
On April 17, the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, the first sunny day after the rain, the two heavy rains in the two days completely swept away the boredom of early summer, the air was full of freshness with a slight earthy smell, under the bright sun, a gorgeous rainbow hung obliquely in the sky, dazzling and dazzling, there were many people who were intoxicated with the beautiful scenery in the Manjing Division, but this did not include Cui Ze and the eldest grandson Chengliang who were sitting opposite each other - since the rain fell to the rain harvest, the two had been sitting opposite each other for nearly half an hour, but they did not speak, just sat quietly opposite each other, each silently thinking about their thoughts.
"Brother Cheng Liang, have you really decided?" Cui Ze shook his sleeves, let out a long breath, and took the lead in breaking the silence.
"Zi Zhan, do you have a choice for your brother?" The eldest grandson Chengliang also sighed, a trace of hatred flashed across his face, and he asked rather lonely.
"Alas, Brother Cheng Liang, this matter together, even if it can be done, Lord Ling Zun is afraid that he will not be able to spare you, so why don't you stop here." Cui Ze smiled bitterly and tried to persuade again.
"It's late." The eldest grandson Chengliang gritted his teeth and said: "Brother has already contacted a large number of officials, but unfortunately although a certain action is hidden, in the end it is still discovered by the father, at this time, even if a certain does not move, it cannot escape punishment, it is better to fight once, push the father, if you can make a big decision, there is a room for turnaround, besides, ......" The eldest grandson Chengliang said this, his face twitched suddenly, and then said hatefully: "Besides, a certain oath can't be cheap that dog thief, the hatred of taking his wife is not repaid, and a certain oath is not a person!" ”
"That being the case, the little brother won't say much, come, the little brother respects Brother Liang and has a cup of wine." Cui Ze saw that he couldn't persuade the eldest grandson Chengliang, so he didn't say anything more, reached out and picked up the wine bottle that had never been touched once on a few sons, filled the wine bottle in front of the eldest grandson Chengliang together with the one in front of him, and gestured to the eldest grandson Chengliang with both hands holding the wine bottle.
"Good!" The eldest grandson Chengliang drank all the wine in the bottle in one go, slapped the wine bottle on a few pieces, laughed, got up, and after bowing to Cui Ze, he strode out of the small courtyard without looking back. Looking at the back of the eldest grandson Chengliang in the distance, Cui Ze showed a trace of gloom on his face, shook his head with a wry smile, sighed, but didn't say anything......
As the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy, this is not true at all, Li Tai has been doing everything smoothly these days, and the small life is extremely nourishing, and he can even laugh out loud when he sleeps, and he is drinking and having fun in the house at this time, but he heard someone report that it was the eldest grandson Chengliang's visit, and he was even more happy - the eldest grandson Chengliang privately contacted the officials of the eldest grandson under the banner of his father, Li Tai had already known from the report of "Size", and originally thought that this matter would not be able to have a result so soon, But he never thought that after only a day's work, the eldest grandson Chengliang came to the door, how not to make Li Tai overjoyed, and no matter what the concubines around him thought, they jumped up and walked out of the gate in disheveled clothes.
"Sixth cousin, you're here, haha, my brother has been waiting for a long time, come, come, come, drink in the house!" Li Tai, who trotted out of the gate all the way, said hello with a smile when he saw the face of the eldest grandson Chengliang, and did not wait for the eldest grandson Chengliang to see him, so he took the hand of the eldest grandson Chengliang and walked straight to the door of the mansion.
"Your Royal Highness, this ......" The eldest grandson Chengliang struggled lightly, but he really couldn't cut Li Tai's enthusiasm, so he had to let Li Tai go.
"The sixth cousin came just in time, my brother just happened to be a new singer here to help Jiangnan, all of them are stunning, they sing and write well, let's go, drink!" Li Tai kept talking excitedly, and the flush on his face became more and more ruddy.
"Your Royal Highness, a certain person took the liberty to come, it is really ......" The eldest grandson Chengliang has been very strict since he was a child, and he has always been very cautious with the wine, even if he came to take refuge in Li Tai, but he didn't want to indulge in the flowers, seeing that Li Tai was going to feast and drink, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted in his heart, and immediately spoke out against it.
"Uh, look at my brother's memory, hehe, my uncle has a strict family education and pays attention to a lot, so let's not feast and drink, go, go to the study if you have something." Li Tai then remembered that there were very few banquets in the eldest grandson's mansion, and the children of the eldest grandson's family were all well-behaved people, so he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, stopped, scratched his head, and said a word with a smile.
Being able to avoid a feast of wine and wine, the eldest grandson Chengliang breathed a sigh of relief, so he didn't say more, smiled, half a shoulder behind Li Tai, one after the other, casually greeted and walked into the study, the guests sat down, and when the people lit the sandalwood, and after serving the fragrant tea, Li Tai waved his hand and drank the subordinates, picked up the tea bowl, gestured to the eldest grandson Chengliang, and said with a smile: "The sixth cousin has something to order, but if the elder brother can do it, he will not refuse!" ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, I really have something to discuss with Your Highness, I wonder what Your Highness thinks of the current situation?" Although the eldest grandson Chengliang is also a smart person, he is not an old man, he skipped the greetings and went straight to the topic.
The eldest grandson Chengliang is so straightforward, the convention of the big anti-officialdom, it really makes Li Tai cry and laugh, although Li Tai is domineering, but he is not a junior brother in the political arena, although he knows that the eldest grandson Chengliang has the heart to help himself, but before he completely understands the eldest grandson Chengliang's hole cards and how much value it can have, Li Tai is not ready to put his hole cards out, but the problem is that the eldest grandson Chengliang has already opened his mouth to ask, and if he doesn't answer, Li Tai's eyes rolled a few times, and he laughed and said: "Sixth cousin, this question is good, is this a situation, hehe, My brother couldn't see it very clearly for a while, but how to decide that he had his own father and his old man in charge, I really don't want to wait for my son to say much, hehe. ”
The eldest grandson Chengliang is a little tender, how can he be compared with Li Tai and other "political elites", as soon as he heard Li Tai playing haha, his face immediately became a little ugly, and he was about to brush his sleeves away, but when he remembered the purpose of coming, he endured it again, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and suppressed the anger in his heart, frowned and thought about it: "His Royal Highness is in a high position, in the eyes of outsiders, it is infinitely beautiful, but he thinks that His Royal Highness is like an abyss, if he is not vigilant, he is afraid that a catastrophe is coming!" ”
How is the situation in the court Li Tai can not have an accurate number in his heart, naturally he knows that his current situation seems to be very good, but in fact it contains a crisis, and the source of this crisis is in the body of the eldest grandson family, but Li Tai is not stupid enough to point out the matter in front of the eldest grandson Chengliang, seeing that the eldest grandson Chengliang is alarmist there, Li Tai is secretly amused in his heart, but also touches some of the hole cards of the eldest grandson Chengliang, which is enough to act and pretend to be shocked. He looked at the eldest grandson Chengliang with a look of surprise on his face and said, "Why did my cousin say this? ”
A rookie is a rookie, the eldest grandson Chengliang is as smart as he is, but he has been strictly controlled by the eldest grandson Wuji since he was young, except for the officials of the eldest grandson's family, he rarely deals with the court officials, plus he is pretentious, ordinary people are not in his eyes, and he does not disdain to hand over those officials, he is very ordinary in terms of human feelings, how can he see through Li Tai This is acting, when he saw Li Tai was shocked, he immediately became proud, and said to the left and right: "Your Highness, this incense smells very good, I don't know where it is produced?" ”
How could the eldest grandson Chengliang's little trick be hidden from Li Tai, and he almost burst his belly with laughter, so he said with a anxious look: "Oh, this incense is specially made by my brother according to the imperial prescription, and it can have the effect of clearing the heart and eyes, and it can't be bought outside, if my cousin wants it, my brother has it here, and I want to have as many as I want, but, hehe, it's just what my cousin said before......"
The intention of the eldest grandson Chengliang is naturally not on the sandalwood made by those royal recipes, at this time, seeing that Li Tai was in a hurry, he was in a happy mood, smiled, straightened his sleeves and said: "Your Highness, and now the position of the East Palace has been vacant for a long time, according to reason, His Royal Highness should enter the Qing Palace, but Your Majesty has never made a decision, why?" In his opinion, the candidate for the prince in His Majesty's mind is not His Royal Highness, but someone else! ”
Although Li Tai had already come to this conclusion from the analysis of Sima Su of the palace, he was still taken aback by the words of the eldest grandson Chengliang, and immediately put away the psychology of looking down on the other party, frowned and looked at the eldest grandson Chengliang, and after being silent for a while, he bowed his hand to the eldest grandson Chengliang and said slowly: "Cousin is not here to inform my brother about this, what is there to teach, but please speak directly." ”
"Well, so-and-so won't be too polite." The eldest grandson Chengliang was very satisfied with Li Tai's attitude, nodded and said: "Today is the wise lord, his foresight is very comparable, and the ancient Ming Jun is not as good, His Majesty is tolerant by nature, but he is strict with Zixi, why?" It's nothing more than for the sake of the Tang Dynasty for thousands of generations, therefore, Your Majesty wants to choose the prince and be elected as the best person, and this person is the ......" The eldest grandson Chengliang said this, his face turned pale, skipped Li Zhen's name, and then said: "If Your Highness wants to turn defeat into victory, there is only one plan to use - to take the authority of hundreds of officials to determine his position, and in addition, there is no other way to go, I don't know if His Highness thinks so?" ”
The truth of what the eldest grandson Chengliang said Li Tai was naturally clear, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, his fat face twitched for a while, and he glared at the eldest grandson Chengliang and said, "Cousin, are you willing to help your brother?" ”
"Hahaha......" The eldest grandson Chengliang laughed loudly and said: "Of course, I came here to help His Highness ascend the throne, Your Highness, please take a look!" When the eldest grandson Chengliang said this, he reached out to take out the joint fold prepared in advance from the big sleeve, but as soon as the hand reached into the sleeve, his face suddenly changed, first he was white, and then suddenly he turned red, his originally clear eyes bulged out, and thick blood streaks were all over it, and the whole person had a spasm, and there was a strange cry of "Hehe" in his mouth, which was terrifyingly tight, which immediately surprised Li Tai, and hurriedly asked: "Cousin, are you okay?" But he never thought that the eldest grandson Chengliang suddenly burst out and threw himself at Li Tai like crazy......
