Xu Jingzong is scaring Zhang Zheng, and similarly, Zhang Zheng is also scaring Xu Jingzong. Zhang Zheng knew very well that Xu Jingzong was different from others, even if he couldn't be reused, but his identity as the eighteenth bachelor of the Qin Palace, and the minister of the hidden mansion was there.

If he really made Xu Jingzong evaporate from the world, let alone Li Er, the first one who would not let go of himself was his father Zhang Gongjin.

After all, this era is about political positions, and it is not a cost-effective thing to put himself on for a Xu Jingzong.

It's just that the words are spoken again, and the coalition forces of the Western Regions are like a sharp blade, and now this sharp blade is about to cut into the neck.

As the so-called extraordinary times do extraordinary things, Zhang Zheng no longer has time to use normal means of struggle to get the military power in his hands.

Then, it is normal to take some unconventional means. Coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes is Zhang Zheng's plan.

Zhang Zheng really can't kill Xu Jingzong, but that doesn't mean he can't be placed under house arrest and controlled by him. Although there are some sequelae left over from this, and it is even very likely that all the former ministers of the former Qin Mansion will be pushed to the opposite side, but the lesser of the two harms, Zhang Zheng has no choice in a short time.

In a short time, all the teams that Zhang Zheng could use in Xizhou were present. After Chen Yu saw that the people summoned by Zhang Zheng, including Zhang Fusheng and Huang Jiahao, were present, he closed the door of the guest hall and personally guarded the door to prevent anyone from approaching.

Qiu Shisan was the first to ask, "Shaolangjun, are you ready to do it when you call us over so late?" Zhang Zheng sat on the throne and did not answer Qiu Shisan's question for the first time, but pondered for a while before speaking: "And on the side of the end of the country, the people who called you will intensify the conflict between the royal power and the prime minister no matter what. It's better that neither side has the heart to take care of us. Qiu Shisan's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, Shaolangjun, your subordinates know what to do." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Zheng nodded, didn't dwell on this matter anymore, turned his head to Zhang Fusheng and Huang Jiahao and said, "On the side of the Assassin's Mansion, you have to trouble the two of you to make a move, just control Xu Jingzong, don't hurt his life." Huang Jiahao was still silent, and Zhang Fusheng responded: "Don't worry, uncle, we can save it." Seeing Zhang Fusheng nodding, Zhang Zheng looked at Jiang Gan, and there was some complexity in his eyes.

After a long time, he spoke: "Captain Jiang, the first moment you get Xu Jingzong's handwriting, you must suppress the army, don't cause the soldiers to mutiny, the talisman should still be in your hand, right?" A trace of embarrassment flashed on Jiang Gan's face, and he bowed his head and responded: "The talisman is still in the hands of the last general, don't worry, uncle, the last general knows what to do." ”

"Well, after the deed is done, Sayako and Kurban will be your second-in-command." Saya Chu and Kurban listened to Zhang Zheng's arrangement, and hurriedly responded: "Get the order." ”

"......" A group of people conspired for half the night, and it wasn't until the early hours of the morning that Yan Shu said to everyone: "Zhang will entrust his life to you." ”

"Don't worry, uncle." A group of people responded, except for Qiu Shisan, each of them received a task and left the Earl's Mansion and merged into the thick night.

Seeing that a group of people were scattered, Qiu Shisan wanted to speak and stopped. Zhang Zheng frowned and scolded: "Say whatever you want." When Qiu Shisan heard this, he said in a low voice: "Uncle, this person Kurban..."

"After all, I sold my life for my son, let him die on the battlefield." Zhang Zheng said lightly.

"Yes." After getting the exact information, Qiu Shisan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Zhang Zheng would be soft-hearted for a while and leave the time bomb of Kurban.

After all, Kurban's past is too unbearable, and if people know that Zhang Zheng has entrusted such a person with a heavy responsibility, it will inevitably lay a mine for his future political career.

It's okay if it doesn't explode, but if it does, it will be a big change that will ruin the entire political career. Of course, Zhang Zheng knew Qiu Shisan's thoughts, but Zhang Zheng didn't need to break him.

A retainer is right to do what he should do, especially to control all kinds of risks for his master. After Qiu Shisan retreated, Zhang Zheng sat alone for a long time, until Chen Yu came in and reminded: "Uncle, this matter will not have a result until tomorrow at the earliest, let's rest." Looking at Chen Yu, a subordinate who had never played a node role in this incident and was still heartfelt, Yan Shu smiled faintly and said, "General Chen, it's time for the Western Regions to change, what do you say?" ”...... The situation in Xizhou became tense in an instant, but the tension in Xizhou could not be transmitted to Chang'an, which had fallen into a sea of grief.

The news of Li Yuan's death has spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, and most of the people who came to Chang'an for funeral have already arrived at the Daming Palace where Li Yuan's coffin is located.

"Father, the son is late." Suddenly, a broken gong and a cry woke up His Majesty Li Er, who had been out of power for a long time.

"Yuanchang?" Li Er's eyes were like red-hot charcoals, and his face was filled with infinite sadness.

"Second brother, second brother. It's me, my brother is late, my father is him, how can my father bear to leave us like this. Li Yuanchang, who had just rushed back to Chang'an, had tears and snot on his face, rushed to Li Shimin's side with an arrow step, knelt in front of Li Yuan's coffin, and couldn't help crying.

Looking at Li Yuanchang's pretentious appearance, a trace of disgust flashed in Li Shimin's eyes unconsciously, and he was about to speak, when the great eunuch Wang De suddenly stepped forward and whispered a few words in Li Shimin's ear, and saw Li Shimin's expression change.

After Wang De finished speaking, Li Shimin said coldly to Li Yuanchang, who was kneeling in front of the coffin: "Since you are back, you can accompany your father here well." After speaking, he turned around and entered the palace room next to the coffin, and entered the side hall.

Li Shimin's face sank, and he couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "This idiot." The idiot Li Shimin scolded was naturally Li Yuanchang, who was crying in front of Li Yuan's coffin at the moment.

Just because Wang De reported to Li Shimin, Li Yuanchang brought the people sent by Fanyang Lu and Qinghe Cui to Chang'an to mourn into Daming Palace.

Wang De, who followed Li Shimin into the side hall, said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, do you want to meet them?" Li Shimin closed his eyes, was silent for a while, and then said: "It's obvious that I'm here to laugh at me, let Cheng Qian see them." Wang De hurriedly nodded and responded: "The old slave understands." After speaking, he was about to exit the side hall as soon as he shook off the dust, but was stopped by Li Shimin: "I remember that Yuanchang's fiefdom is in Shandong, right?" Wang De was stunned for a moment, and responded: "His Royal Highness King Lu's fief is naturally in Ludi. ”

"Okay, very good, inform the Zongren Mansion and change the fiefdom of Yuanchang to, well, to Lingnan, so as not to be used as a gun in Shandong without knowing it." After Li Shimin finished speaking, a trace of anger flashed on his face unconsciously.

Wang De's heart trembled, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to reply stubbornly: "Yes." ”
