One hundred and twenty-five, lick the calf
Hearing that Xu Youzhen took back his fate, Li Xian also felt quite settled in his heart, judging from the current situation, Li Xian knew in his heart that if he got too close to Xu Youzhen, if he really swore to Xu Youzhen as a brother, Shi Heng, who has always liked the party to fight against dissidents and eradicate dissidents, would never give up, so he would inevitably become Shi Heng's target, and he would not want to get rid of him quickly.
If he became Shi Heng's target, Li Xian naturally understood what this meant, and it would be difficult for Shi Heng and other traitors to attack with Jian Huaizhen.
If things get to that point, it will be even more difficult to avenge Lord Yu Qianyu in the future.
Xu Youzhen said this, which was naturally very happy for Li Xian, as long as he could secretly plot and sow discord, he could clean up Xu Youzhen Shi Heng and Cao Jixiang in the palace one by one.
Of course, these are all ideas put forward by Jian Huaizhen, for Jian Huaizhen, Li Xian is extremely trusted, and he is only extremely obedient to two people in his life.
One is the dead Lord Yu Qianyu.
Although he and Yu Qian should have been hostile to each other in the past because of their different political views, it was not enough, which was caused by different views on official affairs.
In terms of private morality, Li Xian has always felt that he is fair and selfless, and Yu Qianyu, who is standing in the court, is a model that he cannot cross and catch up.
Li Xian once secretly said to himself that although his and Yu Qian's personalities are very different, he is exquisite, and Yu Qian is square and regular, but what he is plotting is the people of the family and the country, and the temple and the big things of the country.
Li Xian originally thought that in such a dirty and dark place as the imperial court, there should be no one who could walk the right path alone. Only with such a delicate face as oneself can we promote the development of political affairs.
But since Yu Qian appeared, Li Xianfang knew that he was different, in this filthy court, even honest and selfless people can do great things, and it is a big thing that makes Li Xian look up to him.
Since witnessing Yu Qian taking the lead in the imperial court, he took on the important task of protecting Gyeonggi alone, and miraculously turned the tide, finally turning the precarious imperial court into safety.
Li Xian knew that his pursuit in this life was the same, and he originally thought that he could exert his spare strength under Yu Qian's command and do his part for the people of the world.
But he didn't expect the situation in the court to change extremely quickly, and after Emperor Zhu Qizhen seized the door and was reinstated, he actually ordered Yu Qian to be put in prison.
What's even more terrifying is that under the persuasion of several traitorous ministers in the court, the emperor really wanted to kill Yu Qian.
Although he wrote a letter to defend himself, but the emperor did not put his own recital in his eyes at all, no, it is very likely that the ministers of the world did not have a chance to get to the emperor and were intercepted by the middle way.
The final result was that he was an upright official all his life, stood up in the autumn of the survival of the imperial court, fought against foreign enemies, and finally turned the tide against Lord Yu Qianyu, who had fallen, committed suicide with a sword.
But the ending that made the heroes and heroes of the world sigh.
Shi Heng sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night when he thinks of these things.
As soon as Yu Qian died, the imperial court was missing a large pillar to support.
Soon the foreign Yi swept in and offended the border pass. Li Xian knew in his heart that this was all because of Yu Qian's death and his death.
The Si people are gone, and there is no more blue sky in the world.
This sentence is spread in the mouths of people all over the world.
Li Xian knew in his heart that he was not as good as Yu Qian with his own ability, but Li Xian admired Qian very much.
Soon after Yu Qian's death, Li Xian vowed to become a person like Yu Qian who was a member of the imperial court and a welfare person for all the people in the world.
However, after realizing this wish, Li Xian also secretly vowed in his heart to deal with the traitors who killed Yu Qian.
But the situation is not optimistic, after Zhu Qizhen seized the door and restored, the traitorous ministers were in charge, and the emperor refused to admit his mistake, and he wrote to the emperor to intercede for Yu Qian's son Yu Mian, but he was almost affected and was executed by the emperor's order, but fortunately, he had such an opportunity to get to know Jian Huaizhen.
Ever since he got acquainted with Jian Huaizhen, Li Xian's loyalty has come to life, and he clearly realizes in his heart that even after Lord Yu Qian's death, there are still many people with lofty ideals who sit and do the same thing as Lord Yu Qian did when he was alive.
And Jian Huaizhen is one of the outstanding ones.
After Li Xian was rescued from the execution ground by Jian Huaizhen, in addition to his gratitude to her, he was excited that Jian Huaizhen had silently done many things for the court and the people over the years.
Li Xian knew in his heart that even if Yu Qian was dead, there were people in the world who followed Yu Qian's will.
After Li Xian came into contact with Jian Huaizhen, he quickly understood this matter and quickly joined Jian Huaizhen's plan.
Therefore, for Li Xian, he admires and admires Jian Huaizhen who is like a god, and Li Xian understands in his heart that Jian Huaizhen wants to keep an appropriate distance and contact with Xu Youzhen and others, which is to prepare for the revenge of Yu Qian and the others.
Li Xian is also a smart person, so he naturally understands Jian Huaizhen's deep meaning, so he meticulously followed her meaning, first broke the offensive and defensive alliance of Xu Youzhen and Cao Jixiang and others, and then with the help of Jian Huaizhen, he smoothly broke the offensive and defensive alliance between Xu Youzhen and Shi Heng.
Now that it was a critical moment, Li Xian knew in his heart that going to Shiheng's Mansion to be a lobbyist for Xu Youzhen this time was a matter of life and death.
Once this matter can be achieved smoothly, then it is possible to kick Lord Yu Qian's revenge.
These days, the moment when Shi Heng and Jian Huaizhen have been haunting day and night is finally coming.
Li Xian walked on the road, thinking about these things in his heart.
"Master, Shifu has arrived." The familiar voice of the servant outside rang out.
"Oh, here, let's get off the sedan chair." Li Xian commanded in the sedan chair.
After Li Xian got off the sedan chair, he walked to the gatehouse of Shifu, handed over the name post, and then instructed the porter: "Today, I have been entrusted by Lord Xu Youzhen to come to see Lord Shiheng, please tell me on your behalf." ”
Seeing Li Xian's battle, the porter of Shi Heng's mansion did not dare to slack off, so he spoke to Li Xian: "Please wait here, and the next person will immediately inform Lord Shi Heng." ”
Shi Heng was sitting in the nunnery in the mansion waiting for Xu Youzhen's response.
I could only hear the sound of eager footsteps outside, and then the curtain was lifted, and Shi Qian rushed in and said, "My lord, Xu Youzhen sent a middle-aged person to come and say that the adult will see or not." ”
Hearing this, Shi Heng was a little surprised, so he spoke: "Zhongren, which adult is it?" ”
"It's Lord Lee Hyun in the middle of the court." Shi Qian replied.
"Oh, it's that contemporary Meng Weijun Li Xian, well, Xu Youzhen is really picky. In this way, Xu Youzhen also put in a lot of effort, well, since Xu Youzhen was sent, he should see it as soon as possible, and Lord Li Xian came to meet him as soon as possible. Shi Heng commanded in a deep voice.
Hearing Shi Heng's order, the subordinates naturally did not dare to slack off, and retreated in response.
Shi Heng was originally thinking about Xu Youzhen's ability to deal with this matter today, and after Xu Youzhen sent someone to send him a secret letter a few nights ago, Shi Heng was waiting for Xu Youzhen's next move, so he could deal with it.
However, today's meeting sent from the palace to listen to the news reported that Xu Youzhen went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
After Shi Hengde heard the news, he understood in his heart that Xu Youzhen was only afraid that he was going to attack him.
After working with Xu Youzhen in the same dynasty for so many years, Shi Heng knew in his heart that although Xu Youzhen was powerless, this person was quite deep in the city and was also quite difficult to deal with.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that his subordinates came back to report that Xu Youzhen had arrived at the military department, Shi Heng understood in his heart that Xu Youzhen had borrowed soldiers.
The news was quickly confirmed, and the people who rushed back to report the news gathered outside the hall with Shi Hengyan and many soldiers of the military department.
"It seems that Xu Youzhen refuses to let go of the old man, and is ready to borrow troops to make trouble." Shi Heng said secretly in his heart.
But Shi Heng is not afraid of these, even if Xu Youzhen and the people from the military department break into his mansion, even if he lets go of these soldiers and soldiers, they can't find anything, because after he instructed his subordinates to arrest Xu Youzhen's daughter Xu Qixin, he did not send it back to Shifu, but imprisoned and beat another place.
"Since Xu Youzhen wants to break the net of the fish death, then let him do as he pleases, but only the fish will die, but the net will not break." Shi Heng said secretly in his heart.
Shi Heng had such confidence, and it was by no means obtained out of thin air, after all, he had always been a cunning rabbit and three caves, and he had been operating in the capital for so long, and there were naturally not a few secret mansions.
Later, after Shi Qian came back, he also reported the news to Shi Heng, and Shi Heng was also indifferent.
Shi Heng just told the people in the mansion to deal with it well, and there was no need to stop it.
Since early in the morning, Shi Heng has been waiting for Xu Youzhen to appear with the soldiers of the military department, but Shi Heng has waited for a long time, and still has not waited for Xu Youzhen to bring the troops to the mansion.
During this period, Shi Heng also asked people to continue to investigate twice, and later heard that the soldiers and soldiers outside the hall of the military headquarters were scattered.
Shi Heng was extremely strange in his heart, and he didn't know what the hell Xu Youzhen was doing.
However, Li Xian broke this stuffy gourd this time.
followed the housekeeper Shi Qianlai to report that the capital was in a uproar, and Xu Youzhen originally borrowed troops to enter Shifu, but was persuaded by Li Xian before sending troops.
Shi Heng knew in his heart that Li Xian came here this time, but he was afraid that he would be a lobbyist for Xu Youzhen.
Shi Heng waved his hand and asked the butler to retreat outside to wait.
After Shi Heng understood this matter in his heart, he thought of a countermeasure.
Soon, the subordinates in the mansion brought Li Xian to see Shi Heng.
As soon as Li Xian saw Shi Heng, he bowed his hand and said from afar: "Xiaguan Li Xian worships Lord Shi a lot." ”
Seeing this, Shi Heng asked with a smile: "Li Xian, you, Meng Weijun, have always been happy and happy, contemptuous of princes, and today you have time to wait for the old man's door, do you have any teachings." ”
Li Xian knew that Shi Heng was a powerful character, so he spoke unhurriedly at the moment: "Lord Shi's words, Li Xian can't stand it, where does Li Xian dare to advise adults, today I came to the door to be a lobbyist for Lord Xu." ”
Shi Heng didn't expect Li Xian to break his intention as soon as he spoke, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
However, Shi Heng's ability to pretend to be a calm person is extremely out, and he immediately pretended to be casual and said to Li Xian: "Oh, Brother Li actually came today to be a lobbyist for Lord Xu, but the old man didn't know why Lord Xu wanted to invite Brother Li to be the most lobbyist. Counting it, the old man thought about it at home in the emperor's holy purpose, and he didn't go to court in the tenth month, and he had nothing to do with Lord Xu. ”
Hearing that Shi Heng insisted on denying this, Li Xian didn't think anything about it.
Li Xian opened his mouth to Shi Heng and said, "Lord Shi, have you ever heard that Lord Xu Youzhen went to the military department today. ”
Seeing Li Xian's question, Shi Heng spoke: "I have never heard of this. Whether Lord Xu goes to the military department or goes to the cabinet, it has nothing to do with the old man. ”
When Li Xian saw Shi Heng say this, he knew in his heart that Shi Heng was afraid that he had already learned about it, and now he was just pretending to be confused with himself.
In fact, Xu Youzhen wanted to borrow troops to search for people in Shifu, and Li Xian had already ordered people to spread the word, and everyone knew about it. Even when Shi Qian went out to inquire about the news, he learned about it from the streets and alleys, and he didn't go far.
Li Xian opened his mouth and said: "My lord is really loyal to the emperor, but Li knows everything about this matter. ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Shi Heng opened his mouth and said; "That's natural, how can we, who are courtiers, not be loyal to the emperor. It's just that the old man still doesn't quite understand the second half of what Master Li said. ”
When Li Xian heard this, he laughed and said: "People say that Master Shi is simple and upright and has no heart, but when I see it today, it is true." Lord Shi didn't even know anything about Lord Xu Youzhen's desire to borrow troops from the Ministry of War to enter your mansion. ”
Seeing Li Xian's words, Shi Heng also raised his head and laughed dryly: "Dare to ask Lord Li what is the matter with his visit today?" ”
Li Xian opened his mouth and said: "Actually, the matter is also extremely simple, Lord Shi, Lord Xu wants to come over and tell the adult, as long as the adult is willing to release his daughter Xu Qixin to the Xu Mansion, Lord Xu will not embarrass the noble son Shi Weifeng, and will definitely let Shi Weifeng come back safely." ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Shi Heng's heart moved, everyone has a love for licking calves, since Shi Weifeng disappeared in the academy for no reason, Shi Heng also sent a lot of people to find the whereabouts of his beloved son, but after searching for several days, he still found nothing.
Later, Shi Heng suspected that Xu Youzhen, who had been working against him all these days and killed his nephew Li Kelin, was playing tricks behind his back.
What's more, the emperor's edict to reprimand himself was also caused by Xu Youzhen, so Shi Heng felt that Xu Youzhen must have instructed someone to rob his beloved son Shi Weifeng.
In desperation, Shi Heng decided to fight poison with poison, and simply sent the martial arts masters raised in the mansion to make them take the risk of kidnapping Xu Youzhen's daughter Xu Qixin in Xu Youzhen's mansion.
Of course, these masters of the rivers and lakes who had been hired with heavy money did not disappoint Shi Heng, and soon caught Xu Qixin.
Later, things developed just as Shi Heng had imagined, and Xu Youzhen really sent someone to send a secret letter about the exchange of hostages.
It can be seen that Shi Heng is a little confused, since Xu Youzhen has already agreed with him to exchange hostages, why do he have to go to the Ministry of War to borrow troops, now I understand, it turns out that Xu Youzhen only wants to use the excuse of searching people to kill in the mansion, if this matter allows Xu Youzhen to succeed, I am afraid that it will not be so simple.
Although Shi Heng is not afraid of these soldiers and soldiers of the Ministry of War, Shi Heng does not want to have a big conflict with the soldiers of the Ministry of War, after all, the Ministry of War is not all his own world, and there are still many people who are attached to that Wang Xiaofeng Shangshu, although Shi Heng's forces are not afraid of this person, but after all, the Ministry of War Shangshu is an official of the imperial court, and he still has some prestige of the court, and Shi Heng is also a little taboo.
After understanding these things now, Shi Heng has already learned the ins and outs of this matter, and he understands in his heart that Xu Youzhen did not send someone to attack his mansion at the last moment, but he is afraid that he also has his plan, after all, if he can't find anyone, he will lead troops to break into another mansion without authorization, Xu Youzhen can't explain it in front of the emperor, not to mention that the most taboo thing is this after the emperor's son seizes the door and reinstates the throne.
"In this way, Shi Mou still wants to thank Lord Xu Youzhen, it seems that Lord Xu is knowledgeable and courageous." Shi Heng said a few words without yin or yang.
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Shi Heng spoke: "What your lord said is very true, and from the current situation, it seems that things are like this. ”
When Shi Heng heard this, he said with a haha: "Since Lord Xu Youzhen let Shi go today, and then sent his brother to Shi someone's mansion, what do you want to do?" ”
Hearing Shi Heng's words, Li Xian opened his mouth and said: "Lord Shi Heng, someone Shi has already made this matter clear to the adult, and Lord Xu Youzhen sent a subordinate to invite him to be a Chinese and lobbyist. ”
Shi Heng saw Li Xian's words, so he opened his mouth and said: "Chinese, lobbyist, Lord Li Xian really likes to tell jokes, Lord Xu is in a high position, if you want to tell someone Shi to do something, just send a house slave to come and tell Shi Heng, why bother Lord Li." ”
When Li Xian heard Shi Heng say this, he understood in his heart that Shi Heng was still a little suspicious of his intentions.
Li Xian's heart moved, and he went straight to the point and said: "Lord Shi, the villain understands in his heart that after the adult's beloved son Shi Weifeng disappeared in the academy for no reason, Lord Shi's heart is certainly not happy. However, pushing himself and others, Lord Shi can also imagine the disappearance of Lord Xu Youzhen's palm pearl in the mansion for no reason, and Lord Xu Youzhen is also extremely sad in his heart. If the two sides are sad like this, why don't both sides send the hostages back, so that everyone will be happy. ”
Hearing Li Xian's words, Shi Heng believed that Li Xian was indeed a lobbyist for Xu Youzhen.
Shi Heng, who loved his son's heart, opened his mouth and said, "In this way, the Chinese person mediated by Master Li should be decided?" ”
When Li Xian heard this, he understood in his heart that Shi Heng said this to see how far he could get things and whether he could break the situation.
With this thought in his heart, Li Xian looked up at Shi Heng and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Lord Shi, as long as Lord Shi is willing to let go of Lord Xu's daughter, Miss Xu Qixin, Xia Guan will let your son Shi Weifeng come back safely." ”
