[Chapter 9: The Emperor's Life and Death and False Discussion] (1)

Xiao Jiangyuan never thought that Li Longji would ask him about such a private matter. He felt an inexplicable trust, his heart softened, and he said seriously: "Who is the king?" How could he be entangled in the unintentional mistake of a seven-year-old child for many years? ”

Li Longji raised his eyebrows: "Do you think that if you put on such a look, I don't know that you are coaxing me?" "What two let the country lie down and taste the courage, is it all forced?

"......" Xiao Jiangyuan pursed his lips, but his face looked very innocent.

Li Longji couldn't cry or laugh, and couldn't help but say directly: "In front of me in the future, you can say whatever you want, don't have any worries." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled in surprise: "...... Is it really okay to do anything? ”

"I don't want to say the same thing a second time."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Why? ”

"No why." Seeing that Xiao Jiangyuan looked at him fixedly and didn't speak, Li Longji couldn't help but cover his lips and cough lightly, and compromised, "The friendship between you and me is different from everyone else. ”

Xiao Jiangyuan thought about it for a while: "It's only one more night, it's different?" ”

Li Longji raised his eyebrows lightly and said meaningfully: "Don't you think so?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan did not answer. He suddenly realized that he really thought so, so on weekdays, he would treat Li Longji differently from others. At first, he thought that he was just thanking Li Longji for his help on the night of the coup, but after Qibao Pavilion recognized and thanked Li Longji, he did not stop treating him differently. He himself had questions, but the answer he came to was habit, and now that he thinks about it, it turns out that his friendship is not ordinary.

It turned out that Li Long was also a different existence based on him.

How different is it? is not as good as Your Majesty, but it is better than Shangguan Wan'er, as for the others...... He shook his head unconsciously, how could there be anyone else around him?

"What's wrong with you?" Li Longji shook his head again when he saw Xiao Jiangyuan's expression, and his heart tightened.

Xiao Jiangyuan raised his eyes with a smile: "Back to the king, the slave also thinks so." ”

Li Longji was stunned for a moment, and then grinned.

Xiao Jiangyuan's chest immediately stopped being stuffy, and he spoke briskly: "Since that's the case, forgive the slave and maid for speaking bluntly." Back then, His Majesty wanted to suppress the Prime Minister, and the matter of the king was just one of the inducements, if it was all because of you, it would be biased. It's just that...... In addition to blaming you, who can King Xiang blame? None of your four brothers have ever done anything out of the ordinary. ”

Li Longji's smile suddenly narrowed: "......"

Xiao Jiangyuan's eyes flashed with a smart smile, but his face was still faint, and his voice was soft: "King Xiang probably doesn't know how to face you, after all, at that time, he lost his wife and concubine, and he was afraid of the most depressed and depressed time in his life, on the surface, it seems that everything has passed, but if this heart disease is not cured, he will continue to ignore you." ”

Li Longji groaned, his eyes deepened: "One day, I will let my mother and my mother see the light of day again." ”

Seeing the deep meaning in Li Longji's eyes, Xiao Jiangyuan suddenly remembered Wu Cao's male master's words, and said unconsciously: "This matter is difficult to say, and it is easy to say." If you write directly to the saint, you will be punished if you do not succeed, but if you ......" paused, and said in a low voice, "but if one day you become a saint, or at least, the king becomes a saint, the matter will come naturally, and it could not be simpler." ”

Li Longji was very surprised when he heard this. He looked at Xiao Jiangyuan again from head to toe, and said silently for a while: "Do you know that this is a big rebellion? ”

Xiao Jiangyuan nodded: "I know." ”

You know that you still take it for granted? Li Longji sneered, but said in his mouth: "Do you know that the future is slim at this moment, and the future is unpredictable, and it is useless to say it?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan nodded again, and smiled intriguingly: "It's just talking, why take it seriously?" ”

"Then do you know ......" Li Longji walked up to Xiao Jiangyuan and put his lips to Xiao Jiangyuan's ear, "I did think about this?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan said lightly: "Not only you, but the people of the world, I'm afraid that everyone has thought in their hearts, if they become emperors one day, what will happen to this country, and what will happen to themselves." It's just that there are too few people who can do it. ”

"There are not many people who have the ability to do it, and the times and opportunities are too rare, and there is only one throne." Li Longji sighed leisurely, "I'm probably the kind of person who can only think about it secretly, after all, the king is in the same vein, and he has no chance of being on the throne." ”

"Not necessarily." Xiao Jiangyuan shook his head.

Li Longji thought for a while and said: "Now that the Tang Dynasty is in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the sage will one day sit on the throne, you can't just think that there will be an opportunity like Wu Zhou Li Tang in the coming day just because Empress Wei is not honest." ”

Xiao Jiangyuan turned his head sideways and looked into Li Longji's eyes: "Empress Wei is only one of them, and a saint may not be able to become the second." ”

Only then did Li Longji realize that the faces of the two people were so close to each other. Xiao Jiangyuan's eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips were all in front of him, delicate skin like satin, eyebrows like distant mountains, delicate eyelashes like a lupine fan, and cherry blossom-like red lips...... He has never seen his face so carefully, different from his favorite brightness in the past, his beauty is delicate, but not light, every trace reveals a delicacy, peach blossoms, contrasting with each other.

If it is a few years later, I am afraid that it will look better.

Seeing that Li Longji was a little stunned, Xiao Jiangyuan also felt a little strange, but he didn't realize what was strange, so he had to call him: "King Linzi?" ”

Li Longji came back to his senses and saw that Xiao Jiangyuan clearly sensed that something was wrong, but he still didn't hide, he still stood obediently in front of him, and smiled helplessly: "What did you just say?" ”

What is he laughing at? Xiao Jiangyuan didn't know why, and replied: "From now on, the king can concentrate on strengthening his body and taking precautions as soon as possible, so as not to let the diseases that have existed in the Li royal family for generations fall on his head." If the king can live longer, there may be a windfall, but I can't say. ”

Li Longji understood it at a glance: "The saint is not a grandfather, and he has suffered hardships at the age of the house, and his body is strong, and he can't see any signs of qi and wind diseases at the moment...... "You suddenly reacted when he said it, "You dare to talk about the life and death of the emperor at a young age?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan blinked seriously: "The slave didn't say anything. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Naturally, you didn't say anything, you let me tell you. Li Longji was speechless for a while, gritted his teeth, and said. It's worthy of being by my grandmother's side, and my heart is black enough.

Xiao Jiangyuan smiled indifferently: "The king hasn't told the slave maid yet, he is not in the Fragrance Hall at this time, but he came here, what is the noble matter, but there is something to find Your Majesty?" ”

Only then did Li Longji remember his purpose, and secretly sighed in his heart, why did he forget everything as soon as he touched him, and then took a step back, and at the same time stretched out his right hand behind his back, holding a huge crimson peony between his fingers.

Even in the faint light and the dense moonlight, the almost inky crimson and goose-yellow stamens and layers of petals can still be seen clearly, highlighting the identity of this flower. The flowers bloom extremely full and rich, which is the favorite appearance of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Xiao Jiangyuan knew at a glance: "Guanshi Moyu? ”

"Exactly."

"For Your Majesty?"

"......" Li Longji suddenly wanted to crush the peony in his hand, but he finally held back, and then directly put the peony on Xiao Jiangyuan's hairpin.

Xiao Jiangyuan was rarely stunned: "...... For me? ”

Li Longji only smiled with satisfaction: "It's really good, Jiaofan is too unsuitable for you." ”

Even though Xiao Jiangyuan wanted to take it off, he was grabbed by Li Longji: "What does the king mean by making fun of the slave and maid like this?" ”

Li Longji felt the size of Xiao Jiangyuan's slender hand, and asked rhetorically, "Why did I make fun of you?" ”

"You ......" Xiao Jiangyuan rarely looked at him, "Did you find something?" ”

Li Longji let go of Xiao Jiangyuan's hand and turned his back on it, the smile on the corner of his lips looked very unfathomable under the moonlight: "Yes." ”

"Please also ask the king to give advice."

"The saints always look at you today, do you know?"

Xiao Jiangyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is what you found?" ”

"Or else?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's nothing. I know that the saint always looks at me, and I probably know what he is thinkingβ€”Princess Anle is very gracious. Xiao Jiangyuan sighed.

"If your grandmother is here, you will be safe, if your grandmother is gone......" Li Longji smiled slightly, "Have you thought about how to deal with it?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan didn't want to continue from here: "The king said this, but he wants to help the slaves? ”

Li Longji nodded solemnly: "I'm willing to try my best." ”

"After trying it, I'm afraid you'll be one step away from the throne."

"It's not close, it's not too far. I've never had much hope, it's normal not to get it, unless it's destiny, otherwise even if I'm the eldest son of a saint, what if I do? You see that Prince Yin and Emperor Xiaojing were originally obedient, but they were not one who was taken away by Emperor Taizong, and one died of illness after being unable to eat it? ”

"Destiny is ......" Xiao Jiangyuan carefully tasted the four words and shook his head.

Li Longji thought that Xiao Jiangyuan was lamenting the impermanence of life, so he changed his tone and asked, "Do you believe in the destiny of heaven?" ”

Xiao Jiangyuan said lightly: "The so-called mandate of heaven is just an irresistible reason for a person to be able to ascend to the throne logically. ”

Li Longji sighed: "...... How old are you, can you look a little bit like you should be at this age, why do you have to see everything so thoroughly? ”

"If I am confused, Your Majesty will punish me."

"Don't talk about this, it's still early anyway, let's see while walking, there will always be a way." As soon as Li Longji heard Xiao Jiangyuan mention Wu Cao, he immediately changed the topic, "You really don't know how to bow at all?" Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan shaking his head, he said, "Don't worry, I will teach you well." ”

"The king of Zhongshan will also teach the slaves and maids well."

"How dare he?"

Xiao Jiangyuan looked at Li Longji suspiciously, and saw him snort lightly, "I dare to say that among the brothers, he is the most powerful in riding, and I will let you see tomorrow what real riding skills are." ”

In the Fragrance Palace, Li Longye, who was helping Li Dan beat his shoulder, suddenly sneezed and sprayed half of Li Dan's face.

"Aaaa......a Aye, Gorou didn't mean to! ”

Li Dan took Li Chengqi's silk handkerchief, wiped it, and sighed: "You, ......" suddenly realized that there seemed to be one less person in the hall, so he said, "Where is San Lang?" ”

Li Chengqi said: "San Lang just said to change clothes, and then retreated, Aya forgot?" ”

"Yes......" Li Dan nodded, his face rippled with a little deep meaning, "Goro, go and call San Lang back, I have something to tell him." ”
