Chapter 229: Chaos Rises
Li You voted for Yang Jiefu, contacted the lord of Taiping to enter the palace to obtain the decree of the Queen Mother, and then supported the king of Yu to succeed to the throne? This thought came to Lee Gyu's mind, and then he collapsed on the chair with a limp, do you all have to turn your backs on me? I have been very fond of you, but you are going to treat me like this?
He seems to have forgotten that it was himself who suspected Li You first, and it was he who scolded Li You and others outside the capital, from the time he left Beijing to the present, he had done nothing except to delay the army's itinerary, if it weren't for Li You and others, he would have fallen into the hands of Tang Kuo's department long ago, right? What a chance to return to the throne. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although he didn't say a word, Wei Shiliang had served Li Gui for many years, so he couldn't see his inner thoughts, and a burst of sadness surged in his heart, he would never believe that Li You would support King Yu, this time it might just be a coincidence; Even a loyal minister like Li You, who fought bravely for him, couldn't believe that what good fate would happen to him as a slave who served people?
Don't forget, he instigated the expedition at the beginning, and now Li Gui is really unavailable at hand to spare his life for the time being, if he comes to his senses, I'm afraid it will be his own death, right? Maybe it's time for me to find a way back, but this majesty is really not ......
"Let's go, follow me to Changle Palace, take it... Bring your hands with you. Li Gui originally wanted to bring Li You's men and horses left in the palace or Shi Heng's subordinates, but after thinking about it, he was going to see the Taiping County Lord now, and these two groups of people didn't seem to be suitable, so he changed his words and called Wei Shiliang to collect the manpower these days.
Li Gui hurried to the outside of Changle Palace with a wave of men and horses, and the mighty and majestic soldiers under Qian Hua were in stark contrast to the listless and trembling soldiers behind Wei Shiliang; Seeing this, Li Gui became more and more worried, the elites in the palace are all Li You's party, what safety does he have at all?
Outside the Changle Palace, Li Lingyue was talking to the officer guarding the door, Li Gui couldn't bear his anger and stepped forward quickly, pretending to be calm and asked, "Lingyue, what are you going to do here?" ”
"Taiping has seen the imperial brother." Li Lingyue saluted, she felt that Li Gui's expression at this time seemed to be a little wrong, so she hurriedly explained, "Taiping hasn't asked the Queen Mother for some days, and today someone happened to send a century-old ginseng, so he entered the palace to offer it to the Queen Mother." ”
"The Queen Mother occasionally feels slightly ill and is not suitable to see guests, so Taiping should go back." Li Gui held back his anger and said with a cold face.
The lord of Taiping County is originally arrogant, and he has never looked down on his imperial brother, but now he has a good heart but has suffered such a cold reception, and the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, but when she thought of Li You's words at that time, she took two steps forward and said in a voice that only Li Gui and herself could hear, "Brother Huang, at this time, it is the best policy to stabilize the Queen Mother, and the imperial brother must not delay the big event because of a momentary mood." ”
A momentary mood? Who was it who obstructed me from taking the imperial examination in the first place? Who is it that I led the army out on the march, and plotted to set up another king behind me? Since she didn't treat me as the emperor, she didn't blame me for not treating her as the queen mother, thinking of the past, Li Gui's face suddenly became extremely hideous.
Fortunately, he finally remembered that this was in front of the public, took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "I know this matter in my heart, Taiping should go back." ”
Without waiting for Li Lingyue to respond, Li Gui turned to the soldiers guarding the Changle Palace and said, "The Queen Mother is slightly ill and is not suitable to see guests, so you need to take care of it, and no one should be put in to disturb the Queen Mother." ”
"The last will obey." Qian Hua glanced at Li Lingyue helplessly, and replied respectfully; The exploits of the Taiping County Lord in the seizure of the door are very provocative, and now that Yang Jiefu is still alive and well, Li Gui is suspicious of the people on his side, which is simply too unwise.
After that, Li Gui left straight away, leaving Li Lingyue outside the Changle Palace; Li Lingyue stared at Li Gui's back until he disappeared around the corner of the palace wall. These words suddenly popped into her mind.
After returning to the palace, Li Gui locked himself in the room alone, and smashed the inkstone on the desk, the vase on the shelf and other objects one after another, before opening the door and summoning Wei Shiliang in.
"Slave and maid knock to your majesty." Wei Shiliang fell to his knees, even if his knees were pierced by the fragments of the vase, he didn't dare to look out of the slightest.
"I remember that Yang Jiefu once mentioned that Taiping should go to Tang Kuobu to make peace, right?" Li Gui said slowly.
Wei Shiliang sighed in his heart, secretly screaming that it was not good, at such a critical juncture, he wanted to deal with the Taiping County Lord, it was too unwise; The lord of Taiping is deeply loved by the Queen Mother, and is quite powerful in the palace and in the Tang Dynasty, and it is too late to win her over now, but His Majesty wants to drive her away, isn't this a self-cutting arm?
"Yes, His Majesty refuted Yang Xiangguo on the grounds that his peace and relatives hindered the face of Great Wei, and this matter was just done." But what can he, as a eunuch beside the emperor, say, he can only answer truthfully.
"Well, that's what I said back then." Li Gui had a faint regret in his heart, he had known that he might have listened to Yang Jiefu's arrangement that day, he seemed to have forgotten that he would return to the palace without the Taiping County Lord? "But now that I think about it, Taiping's age is not small, and it has long been time to get married, and it is definitely not possible to be married, Wei Shiliang, you go to check if there are those children of suitable families who have not yet married? Let's do this sooner. ”
"Yes, slave and maid." Wei Shiliang stood up cautiously, he knew that it was the incident he reported that caused Li Gui's misunderstanding, causing him to feel disgusted with the Taiping County Lord.
first offended Yang Jiefu, and now she has provoked the Taiping County Lord and Li You, the Queen Mother in Changle Palace must be gritting her teeth for herself, right? And His Majesty only continued to let himself stay by his side because there was no one available for the time being, Wei Shiliang felt sad for his future for a while, this is the end of doing things for the emperor.
It's better to leave a way back for yourself, and you don't want to save your life in the future, as long as they can remember that Zhiqiang can give themselves a happy life today, it would be good, and the successive events made Wei Shiliang completely lose confidence in Li Gui. Then he went to look up the information, and he quietly spread the news.
At this time, Li You also received a bad news, there are demons in the four prefectures of Hedong, gathering more than 100,000 rioters, and now three county towns have been captured, and there is a tendency to intensify, and the request for help from the four prefectures of Hedong has been sent to the capital.
Now the chaos is coming, there are Tang Kuo outside, there are chaotic people inside, and the court is even more chaotic into a pot of porridge, which is a sign that the troubled times are coming. (To be continued.) )
