Chapter 164: The Eve

Chapter 164: The Eve

With a crisp sound of "pop", the porcelain tea bowl immediately fell apart, and the jasper hanging beads on the tea bowl rolled out of the distance, and everyone present was trembling.

This is the West Flower Hall of the Prince's Mansion, and it is also the place where the prince often gathers to discuss matters, near the porch where everyone is standing, hearing this voice, everyone is silent, but they are muttering in their hearts, His Royal Highness is throwing things again, since he returned to the house that day, His Royal Highness's face has not been good, that is, even Li Fu and Li Quan, the two great eunuchs who have been waiting in the East Palace since childhood, have also fallen well, and I don't know what is wrong, Li Quan also suffered from the board.

These subordinates are all careful, and their minds are simple, as long as they don't put trouble on their own heads when His Highness is angry.

The people in the flower hall are not as comfortable as these subordinates, the prince rarely has such a big anger, of course, everyone also knows why the prince is angry, Li Yanlu was asked, the Li family's power in the Beijing division is mainly in the military department and the Beijing division of the army, Li Yanchu This person has a treacherous temperament, and he can't rely on it, Li Dangdang is lukewarm to the prince's wooing, obviously unwilling to get involved in the battle for the storage position, Li Yanlu is in charge of the left guard of Yulin, the position is high and powerful, and he is also close to the prince, plus Wang Shize was beheaded, Kind of from the end to the military department, Zhimuhe was cut to the people, the prince's power in the army can be said to have been swept away, so Li Yanlu has become the prince to rely on him as a figure in the city.

Now that it is good, a will has come down, Li Yanlu has been put into Dali Temple, looking at it like that, the result is not good, it is no wonder that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is full of anger, and then the opportunity for everyone to persuade him to calm down came out.

Li Xuanzhi glanced coldly at everyone present, and secretly suppressed the anger in his heart, the bitterness in his heart was much deeper than these people guessed, and everything had not gone well in the past few years. In addition to the fact that his arms were cut off one after another, it was the Qingyang Mansion incident, which made the manpower he had accumulated in the dark for many years not clean, and he still doesn't know where the account office surnamed Cui ran to, which is like a spike in his heart, and it hurts from time to time.

Emperor Zhengde was furious that day, which really frightened him very much, and he also deeply felt that his position as the crown prince was already very unstable. After leaving the palace gate, his mind calmed down, and he immediately thought that it was not a day or two since Li Yanlu opened a gambling house, and it was impossible for his father to know the news now, but he was just waiting for an opportunity to come out, and this opportunity was Wuju.

At this time, the two fifth and sixth brothers were so smart that they did not write to Li Yanlu to intercede, let alone severely punish Li Yanlu. It seems that he is still waiting, and the fifth brother also came over with a book, wanting to go back to Beijing to celebrate his father's birthday, but fortunately, his father did not agree, if the fifth brother came back. This capital is even more lively, and I don't know what trick I can do to make myself uncomfortable.

However, Li Dangdang came once, and he put down his body and begged him to intercede with the emperor, which was a weekday. This favor has to be done no matter how difficult it is, but now the shape is different, the father and the emperor have used his topic to rectify Li Yanlu, and this matter has not been spread out is already a blessing to invite heaven, it can be seen that the father is still taking care of his face, and then go to his father to intercede for Li Yanlu? He really didn't have the guts.

Li Dangdang doesn't know this, even the people below don't know the internal situation, the Li family is the prince's party. This is a matter on the surface, the officials, big and small, and the two uncles either come to the door in person, or pass the word over, all of them are a voice that exculpates their children and nephews, it is impossible to promise, but if you don't agree, you will lose people's hearts, and he is in a dilemma. I can't tell anyone about it yet. All the bitter water was swallowed secretly.

Now he was a little envious of the seventh brother, although the seventh brother was also roasted on the volcano. But look at the people, put their faces on the board, there are really few people who dare to go up and ask for discomfort, it really saves a lot of trouble, but envy is envy, he is not dizzy, the reputation of this seventh brother is not very good, the prestige is all by killing, the official uniform dyed with blood, I can't learn, and I don't want to learn, I still have to govern the country like my father, and the spring breeze and rain come properly.

"Don't tell me anything to calm down, you called me calm back then, I gave up a wife and uncle, a few years ago you let me calm down, and gave up two uncles, what do you want now? You have already seen the situation, and the officials from all over the court are looking at me here, and they still want to calm down? Do you have no choice but to say it, or are you unwilling to say it? ”

Li Xuanzhi's gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the hall one by one, sharp and so sharp that people didn't dare to force their eyes, and even his voice was full of oppression, what he said was very heavy, and everyone couldn't help but bow their heads.

After a long time, Mr. Xu, who was still sitting closest to him, slowly opened his mouth, "Your Highness, please rest the thunder, I see that everyone is tired today, and it is inevitable that you will be troubled, everyone go back and think about it, Your Highness has never treated you gentlemen badly, this is the time when you need everyone's help, what is the good charter tomorrow, let's discuss it here today......"

The prince's lips squirmed, but he still didn't say anything, and finally waved his hand a little tiredly, and everyone's hearts were relieved, and they got up and retreated.

It wasn't until there were only two people left in the hall that Li Xuanzhi stroked his forehead and leaned lazily on the back of the chair, looking at Xiao Xiao Luomu outside the hall with a distraction, and after a while, he sighed slightly and said: "Don't hide it from Mr. Don't tell me, the position of this prince is really not good, I remember when I was young, several brothers were still harmonious, and I also held the sixth brother to pick peaches for him, and then look at it now, everyone seems to be like an enemy, think about it...... What's so good about this location? If you are not free at all, you will make everyone feel troubled and troubled......"

Speaking of this, he seemed to have woken up, smiled at himself, and immediately picked up his feelings, but his mood also improved a lot, and he smiled and said to Mr. Xu: "Sir, can you teach me?" ”

Mr. Xu smiled slightly, and he didn't mention Fang Cai's words, where can others guess the thoughts of these royal children?

"What is your Highness's biggest concern right now?"

"Sir, test me?" Li Xuanzhi said with a smile.

"Don't dare, in fact, I think Your Highness is thinking about things too seriously."

"Huh? How do you say that? ”

"Li Yanlu is greedy for money, and sooner or later something will happen, this is self-inflicted. It's not about other people's affairs, but I also know what His Highness is embarrassed about, but it's just that the outside says that the Li family is your person, and you can't ignore things like that, but this matter is the opening of the saint, and His Highness can't say anything, this is His Highness's difficulty now, I don't know if I'm right? ”

Li Xuanzhi's eyes lit up and straightened up. smiled and said: "Mr. still knows me, in that case, Mr. don't go around that corner, hurry up and tell me what to do?" ”

Mr. Xu's eyes flashed with smugness, and then he said respectfully: "Your Highness doesn't have to be embarrassed, the reason why the emperor wants to take Li Yanlu is also at the right time, and His Royal Highness is more familiar with the situation of the Yulin military guard than me." The emperor has long had the intention to rectify the army, since the emperor ascended the throne, the military power of the forbidden army has been slowly received in his hands, and now it is time to rectify the armies of the Beijing Division.

Originally, if the emperor was in the middle of spring and autumn, he could slowly figure it out. I won't do such a thing that shakes the government and the opposition, but the holy body is ...... Therefore, this matter can't help but be a little anxious, and it is not for Your Highness, so there is no need to worry too much. ”

Li Xuanzhi smiled. interjected: "I'm not worried about this, and I think clearly, Mr. should tell me how to deal with this matter, I've been surrounded by people for the past two days, all of them have come to me to beg for mercy, and I'm also here with a headache." ”

Mr. Xu shook his head, "Your Highness still can't understand this, the emperor doesn't intend to do anything to these people." It's just a good excuse to knock on the head, and I guess that it's not only His Royal Highness who has a headache at this time, but also King Jing who is also annoying. ”

Speaking of this, a few smiles appeared on Mr. Xu's face, but then he put it away, and continued: "So this matter is very easy to do, you just need to go to King Jing and walk around openly." There is no need to say anything deeper. There is no need to plead, just a slight reminder of His Royal Highness King Jing. With the wisdom of His Royal Highness King Jing, it is estimated that he can understand the meaning of the emperor,

In this way, when those left guard Yulin generals are released from prison, won't their fathers, ancestors, relatives and friends all have to bear your affection?

But you need to remember one thing, don't mention Li Yanlu, this person can't be saved, but His Royal Highness can't be too ruthless, this matter is estimated to be decided by the emperor in the end, then you only need to say a few words, the saint has always been lenient, and Li Yanlu has only opened a gambling house, and his life should be worry-free, so His Royal Highness has done his best, and Li Jiazi has nothing to say. ”

"Okay." Li Xuanzhi patted the armrest of the chair and said, the troubles that had plagued him for two days moved down like this, and he was naturally happy in his heart, stood up and walked back and forth on the ground twice, before he said again: "Mr. is really talented, and he can see much more clearly than Xuanzhi." ”

Mr. Xu hurriedly got up and didn't dare to say anything, but the beard under his chin trembled violently, which showed that his heart was not calm.

Li Xuanzhi returned to the study satisfied, but asked someone to call Qin Kejian, the commander of his guard.

The tall figure pushed the door in, and after saluting, he said, "What does Your Highness command?" ”

Qin Kejian is somewhat similar to Zhao Shi in a certain way, this is not to say that they look alike, although Zhao Shi is already quite strong, but this person's body is more than a circle thicker than him, but it does not look bloated, the muscles and bones are strong, and there is always a feeling of elasticity when walking, just like a leopard who has been on guard, and the whole person looks full of energy.

said that he was similar to Zhao Shi, but this person's eyes were cold and firm, always inadvertently revealing a demeanor of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and more as if he was indifferent to everything around him, but the light that flashed in his eyes from time to time showed that this person was always vigilant, and how similar he was to Zhao Shi before him.

But at this time, this person's attitude was extremely respectful, and even a little cramped, like a child who had just entered Mongolian school facing a strict elder.

Li Xuanzhi glanced at him, smiled very gently, but spoke with a little more Yan sΓΉ flavor in it, "The day after tomorrow is the birthday feast of the father and the emperor, and it was originally just a position of deputy commander, but now that Li Yanlu has entered Dali Temple, the position of commander is also vacant." So this pre-dinner competition is only allowed to win, not defeat, do you understand? ”

"Yes, Kjan understands." A fierce light flashed in Qin Kejian's eyes, like a beast that smelled blood.

"But there is one thing you have to remember, maybe Wu Zhuangyuan is a young man surnamed Zhao, if he speaks...... You've got to kill this guy. Li Xuanzhi hesitated, it was not a wise move to see blood at his father's birthday feast. And anyway, this person is the person of King Jing, and it is a little troublesome to kill him, but now he can't take care of that much, this young man named Zhao Shi knows too many things, and it used to be a group training in Gongyi County, no matter which one, it is more appropriate to kill it.

"Yes." As before, Qin Kejian simply responded. There is no nonsense, it makes no difference in his eyes who kills, the most important thing is what His Highness has explained in front of him, and he will complete it even if he dies.

Li Xuanjin nodded with satisfaction, "Okay." You go back and prepare well, and you won't need your escort when you go out tomorrow. ”

A day passed in the eyes of some people, and in the early morning of this day, Zhao Shi was called by Xihong very early. "Master, Manager Dong is already waiting outside." Seeing Zhao Shi sitting up on the bed, his strong chest was exposed, his face similar to Bai Yu couldn't help but flush, and his eyes instantly seemed to be able to drip water, but he had some resentment in his heart, this old man was good at everything, he just liked to sleep alone. It takes many days to stay by his side for one night, which girl said that men are all marrow eaters? Although the old man is young, he is like this, so that she can't sleep every night, and when she thinks of this, her face is even more red.

Zhao Shi naturally couldn't guess the woman's thoughts, he didn't think about it at all, after returning to the mansion last night. King Jing Li Xuanjin called him over. said a lot, first of all, about Lijiadi. Especially about Zhao Shi himself, the main meaning is that the Li family can't move now, so the public case has to be put aside for the time being, so the words that I wanted him to meet Li Jinhua last night came over, these are more like explanations, and being able to do this step also shows that Li Xuanjin values him, in fact, Zhao Shi's bad feelings towards the Li family are still due to the Li family's repeated pursuit of him, if it weren't for this, the things of the year would have been put down a long time ago, and it was a great deal in the eyes of others to take the credit, But when he doesn't have the ability to protect himself in his eyes, what credit is the credit? It's life that counts.

So Li Xuanjin just started talking, and Zhao Shi had already said a sentence but dealt with it according to the prince's orders, but he still felt a little strange when he and Li Jinhua met, and Li Xuanjin's face was also smiling at that time, which made people a little confused.

After that, it was the matter of martial arts, Wu Zhuangyuan must be taken down, Zhang Fengju due to the poor performance of the group battle subject, as long as the infantry battle and cavalry battle won another game, this Wu Zhuangyuan is also Zhao Shi's bag, and now Yulin Zuowei has commanded Li Yanlu has been questioned, so that Yulin Zuowei is a situation where there is no leader in a group of dragons, and Li Xuanjin listens to the meaning of Emperor Zhengde is also to choose people from the martial arts, who is more qualified than Wu Zhuangyuan? However, it seems a little unlikely to be promoted from a military attache without a grade to a third-grade general, and he doesn't know what his father is thinking about, but it is necessary to win the martial champion.

Then he said some things to pay attention to at the birthday feast, so that Zhao Shi could get out and leave.

While thinking about these messy things, she asked Xihong to wait for her to get dressed, moved her hands and feet, and felt full of energy, so she opened the door and let Manager Dong in.

However, Mr. Dong didn't come alone, he was still followed by Li Quanshou, the little prince, this guy looked as if he was going to win the martial arts champion, his little face was full of excitement, and he urged Zhao Shi to go quickly, but even if he was in a hurry, breakfast was also to be eaten, and the three of them came to the front yard of the mansion and hurriedly ate breakfast, which recruited a few guards such as Dushan Tiger and Wang Hu, and came out of Chang'an City and came in the direction of the hunting ground.
