Chapter 34: Adding Oil to the Fire (I)
What is the most stable form in the world? It will definitely not be a competition between the two powers, nor will it be a scuffle between the four countries, let alone a seven-nation competition, but a three-legged stand, this is a bumpy truth wherever it goes, if Li Zhen wants to have a stable environment to strengthen his own strength, then he must create a situation of the three kingdoms, but these three legs should be which three legs still have to be studied, but, with Li Zhen's current strength, no matter how the combination is concerned, it will not be his turn to take his own head, besides, he just wants to protect himself, and he has no intention of winning the heir at all, then let others play the tricks.
The prince and the fourth in the three-legged are now popular, these two legs can't escape, as for the third foot, hey, the fifth Li You wants to play, but unfortunately he has neither the ability nor the strength, and he has come out a few times, but hey, he was either beaten by the prince or kicked by the fourth, and he couldn't come out at all, as for the sixth, he had no hope, he was just a brainless thug, the seventh Li Yun? Hey, although this kid is still passable in civil and military affairs, he is always a dog in front of the fourth child, and he can't get on the stage at all, and now the only one who can compete with the prince and the fourth child in this situation is the third Li Ke, who was kicked out of Beijing.
The third child has a bit of strength, and he is very good at writing and martial arts, and he is a lot stronger than the prince and the fourth, but it's a pity that because he is a concubine, he has no name, and he lost a mess at the beginning of the year, and was kicked out of the Beijing division by the old man, which was a big defeat for a while, of course, the reason why the third child lost at the beginning was actually related to Li Zhen, if it weren't for Li Zhen to give the fourth child an idea of "Kuo Di Zhi", let the fourth child withdraw, and hurt the third person to fight the prince, he would not have lost so badly, However, the foundation of the third child is still there, as long as he can come back, this drama of winning the heir can continue to sing.
I want to understand it, but it's not easy to do it, Li Zhen has been thinking about it in the room for a long time, and the sun is going west and still hasn't come up with a good way to let the third child return to the capital - according to the Tang system, the prince's official queen does not mean that he can't return to Beijing, during the New Year's holidays, if he is given a holy decree, he can still return to Beijing to face the saint, but if he wants to stay in Beijing to develop, it will be difficult, unless he can get the favor of the old man again, after all, the prince's official is generally due to falling out of favor, without a special performance, If you want to go back to Beijing to participate in the succession, it is difficult to go to the sky.
It's not that there is no way, in terms of the knowledge from the later generations in Li Zhen's mind, any new thing can make the old man happy, but there are two obstacles - first, Li Zhen has never pulled and pulled with his brothers, and rushed to come up with ideas, which makes people suspicious, right? Second, Li Zhen doesn't know anything about the current situation of the third child, and is also very unfamiliar with what kind of situation Jinan, Shandong is now, even if he wants to make an idea for the third child, he must understand the situation in order to prescribe the right medicine, otherwise not only will it not work, but it will be a big mistake.
It's hard, it's hard! Li Zhen had a headache and didn't come up with a good way to solve these two problems, but there was no one to discuss, so in desperation, she had to pace back and forth in her own room to relieve the depression in her heart. ”
Ha, I was dozing off, and someone rushed to deliver a pillow, which was fucking interesting! Hehe, although the fifth guy has also fallen into the well for us today, but then he helped us talk back, of course, the left and right just see that we can escape this catastrophe, sell a good one, hey, this time please let us come over, a must be planning to win us over again, well, this time the person who beat Lao Tzu's black gun, the fifth child may not be able to escape the suspicion, damn, no matter, go and see! Li Zhen took the invitation and looked at it unintentionally, but she couldn't stop babbling in her heart, and she was so engrossed for a while that she didn't say she would go, she didn't say no, she just stood there stunned.
Li Zhen didn't speak, the bell's face showed a hint of discoloration, peeked at Li Zhen's face, and asked with a little hesitation: "Your Highness, do you need a slave to do something?" ”
Well? Why does that sound wrong? Damn, this chick is a little too enthusiastic, I didn't even say I was going, she's good, she's ready to do something, hey, damn, there's something weird! This guy can't be a dark stake, right? Li Zhen glanced at the bell with interest and asked lightly, "Where is the person who sent the post?" ”
As soon as Li Zhen asked this, the bell was obviously unprepared, and hesitated for a moment before replying: "Your Highness, that person has already left." ”
Hehe, how can you come and go as you want to come and go as you want? ! The one who can send the letter in must be the people in the palace, damn, this guy clearly wants to hide the identity of the person who came, it seems that this chick should be the third child's secret stake. Although Li Zhen had guessed the heel of the bell, she didn't break it, but just smiled indifferently and said, "Prepare the sedan chair, this king will go to the Yanwang Mansion." The bell glanced at Li Zhen a little flustered, lowered his head, and answered the "yes" turned around and went out, and went to order the sedan chair not to mention.
Yan Wangfu is on the South Street, not far from the Taiji Palace, that is, three hundred meters away, out of the Chengtian Gate, along the South Street straight to arrive, Li Zhen is the first time to the brothers' palace as a guest, there is really some unspeakable strange taste in his heart, he himself can't understand what this emotion is about, just get off the sedan chair, I saw a group of people from the prince's mansion hurriedly greeted him, the first eunuch in the housekeeper's costume lowered his eyebrows and said: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Han, the old slave Gaolin has given you a salute." ”
"Oh? Do you know this king? Li Zhen looked at the middle-aged eunuch and found that his eyes were very raw, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.
Gao Lin hurriedly bowed down and replied: "Lord Wang, when the slave was in the palace before, I saw His Highness several times, but His Highness didn't know it. ”
"Really? That's fine. Li Zhen laughed, waved his hand and said: "Liu Dequan, reward the executive's family to buy some wine and drink, and the others will pay 100 yuan each." ”
Li Zhen has money, and he has always been generous, and the eunuchs and palace maids who followed him have long been accustomed to it, but the gang of people in Yanwangfu have never seen such a generous master, and everyone was immediately excited and satisfied.
I know it's all, but it's good to listen to, isn't it? Li Zhen was not polite, that is, he listened with a smile, but the fifth child who got the news and rushed out to greet him was a little embarrassed, strode up to Li Zhen, and said with a wry smile on his face: "Okay, you little eight, just went to my brother's house, and became a boy who scattered wealth. Hey, if you get less reward after *, isn't it being pointed at and scolded for being stingy? ”
"Haha, since the fifth brother is afraid of being scolded, why don't you end it with more rewards at a time?" Li Zhen laughed.
Li You pretended to be annoyed, patted Li Zhen on the shoulder and said half-truthfully: "Good boy, you think everyone is like you, there is so much money that there is nowhere to put it, hey, if you really have nowhere to put money, just leave it here with my brother, maybe you can make some money." ”
Hehe, if you want to make money from us, there is no door! Li Zhen didn't pick up the stubble at all, and laughed and said, "What? The elder brother invited the younger brother to come, just to stand at the door and chat? ”
Li You patted his head and said: "Look, it's all the eighth brother who gave the money to make trouble, the elder brother is rude, the eighth brother, please inside." ”
"Brother, please first." Li Zhenli waved his hand without hesitation and responded.
"That's it, that's it, why do you and my brother need to be so polite and polite, let's go together!" As soon as the words fell, he grabbed Li Zhen's shoulder, and the two brothers walked into the palace side by side, talking and laughing.
Wine is good wine, Li You is good at this, there are a lot of good wines in the house, of course, for Li Zhen, these wines are really not good, they are barely the specifications of ordinary rice wine in later generations; The dish is very general, although the materials are good, but the workmanship is very limited, according to Li Zhen's words: spoiling good dishes, therefore, Li Zhen does not have much appetite at all, that is, he will use it, and he has a pair in his mouth, and he has not been idle with Li You, but he has never asked Li You about the purpose of inviting himself, and he has never mentioned his true intention, as if he came to drink at the door.
Li Zhen is very patient and can calm down, but Li You doesn't have that ability, although he is also a scheming person, but first, he has something in his heart, and secondly, he is really not as calm as Li Zhen, seeing that the wine has been drunk for several rounds, Li Zhen still pretends to be a nobody, Li You can't bear it, he picked up the wine bottle in front of him, drank the residual wine in one gulp, slammed the wine bottle on the table, and said angrily: "Eighth brother, I have wronged you today, my brother is incompetent, I can't help you, ashamed, ashamed!" ”
Oh, this is the beginning, Cheng, let's see how your kid performs, damn, let's not believe that your kid has no part in this, maybe the so-called informant was sent by your kid. Li Zhencheng's mansion is very deep, and it will be blinded by Li You's unpopular acting skills, although he muttered in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, and he didn't speak, just smiled.
"Eighth brother, I think you know it, that bullshit Eagle Yang Lang was originally Hou Junji's personal soldier, but Cui Yuanhao, the old thief, is clearly the fourth person, and the two of them joined forces to rectify the eighth brother, which is really too much! Brother is sorry for you. Seeing that Li Zhen didn't speak, Li You had no choice but to continue: "Alas, it would be nice if the third brother was still here, and he would never let those thieves mess with his brothers, but it's a pity that ......, alas!" ”
Hehe, this is a fucking mess, Lao Tzu wants to calculate it, but unfortunately Lao Tzu doesn't have that strength, so it's better to pretend to be confused, so as not to be shot again. Li Zhen had already decided that this matter could not be investigated clearly, nor could it be investigated at this time, everything had to wait until he had enough strength to slowly break up this matter, besides, Li Zhen didn't believe that this matter would be as simple as it appeared - although the prince and the fourth child were the ones who came forward, it was not necessarily what they did together, it was very likely that they were also being used, but the guy in front of him who pretended to be righteous may be the real black hand. Seeing that Li You was so engrossed, Li Zhen couldn't bear to watch him not be able to act, so he smiled and said, "Fifth brother, how is the third brother now?" ”
"Alas, the third brother is ......" Li You said with a look of wanting to speak and stopped: "It's not good, even if my brother is afraid that it won't be good, alas, in a few days, my brother will also go to the official, and this will be the world of those two bastards in the Beijing Division in the future!" ”
What the? Li Zhen was really taken aback this time, and for a while she couldn't tell whether the fifth child was reliable or not, although her face did not change, but there was a storm in her heart......
