Chapter Seventy-One: Li Xian Was Sceptered
A faint sound of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
Li Xuan subconsciously turned around.
Outside the door, a thirty-year-old maid wearing a blue man's robe and a black hat stood faintly in the doorway.
"Lord Wang, Pei Weng, His Royal Highness has an order to take the little girl into the palace to talk!" The middle-aged waitress has a mediocre appearance, does not apply powder, and has a soft voice, but is very firm.
"It turned out to be Hu Shangyi!" Pei Guangxiao stood up from the stool and bowed slightly to the person standing in the shadow of the door.
"Don't dare, Pei Weng is polite!" Hu Shangyi's somewhat frightened voice sounded outside the door, and even took a slight step back.
In addition to the queen, four concubines, nine concubines, Jieyu, beauty, Baolin, royal maid, talented girl and other emperor's concubines in the palace, there are also female officials of the six Shang and twenty-four divisions.
Shang Gong, Shang Yi, Shang Fu, Shang Shi, Shang Bed, and Shang Gong are all female officials of the five grades.
Li Xuan looked at Hu Shangyi through the door, and knew in her heart that the female officials in the palace had multiple talents and virtues, although Hu Shangyi was a female official in the palace, her ability was absolutely outstanding.
Especially now that the palace is in charge of the martial queen, and His Majesty is sick, few people can go from female officials to concubines, and the atmosphere in the palace is clear for a while.
"Is the crown princess okay?" Pei Guangxiao couldn't help but ask.
"His Royal Highness has already asked the saint and the queen of heaven for sin, although the seal of Mrs. Zhongtian was carved by His Royal Highness casually and used to reward the playthings of the younger generations, but this time there was such a big turmoil, and His Highness's fault is not small." Hu Shangyi said the matter gently.
From Pei Shitong's awakening to the present, it has only been a moment in total, and the news has reached the crown princess.
Either the wind leakage in this palace is like a broken house, or the crown princess is not as simple as it seems.
Although the crown prince Li Hong has died of illness, the people under his original command have really dispersed?
You must know that although Li Hong is sick and weak, with the support of Emperor Li Zhi, he can compete with Empress Wu.
Those under his command have either left the dynasty in heart, or have fallen under the command of Li Xian, the king of Yong, or thrown into the arms of the queen of heaven......
There are also some private individuals who fell into the hands of the crown princess Pei.
If everything is calm and nothing happens, then these people will naturally disappear quietly, but once something happens, the power of these people's outburst cannot be underestimated.
"That being the case, then Miss Pei, please follow Hu Shangyi to see Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess!" Li Xuan suddenly turned around and said to Pei Guangxiao: "Pei Weng, it's still early, Xiao Wang won't stay in the palace tonight, and I'll see Miss Pei tomorrow!" ”
"Thank you for your understanding!" Pei Guangxiao nodded very politely, and his expression eased for a while.
"Xiao Wang farewell!" Li Xuan looked at Pei Shitong on the bed, and found that Pei Shitong was staring at Li Xuan with a pair of eyes, his eyes were full of unimaginable calm, but he locked Li Xuan's figure tightly.
[Pei Shitong, the young daughter of Pei Qizhe, the governor of Luoyang County, is twelve years old, obsessed with revenge]
The prompt entry suddenly jumped out again, Li Xuan's eyes flickered, remembering what Pei Shitong said before, he knew in his heart that this matter was not over.
Nodding slightly, Li Xuan withdrew from the dormitory of Shang Pharmacy, and nodded slightly to Hu Shangyi at the door, Hu Shangyi took half a step back and bowed, without raising his eyes.
There was no communication between Li Xuan and Hu Shangyi, and he quickly left here.
Although this is the dormitory of Shang Pharmacy, it has long been requisitioned by all parties.
Pei Guangxiao is Zongzheng Siqing, Li Xuan, the king of Nanchang County, is still under his jurisdiction, and the princess's people are here, so he has to avoid suspicion.
There are few people in the courtyard of Shang Yaodian now, but who knows how many people are staring at it in the dark.
Shang Yaoju was in charge of the emperor's medical affairs, but most of them were errands and decoctions.
Now Emperor Gaozong has died of a wind disease, and there are countless famous doctors around him, and the functions of diagnosis, administration, and even decoction are sometimes robbed.
Shang Pharmacy is more responsible for the management of medicinal materials and the transportation of medicinal materials.
Walking in the imperial city, in the darkness, a few lights flashed in the distance.
Li Xuan clasped his hands in his sleeves and walked forward steadily, making a crisp sound under his feet, but his eyes looked in the direction of Miyagi.
There were too many things that happened in one day today, first the kings came to see him, the suspicion of the prince's death was completely eliminated, and then Shangshu Province made a sharp move to completely clear the stronghold of Tianyin Sect and Wusheng Dao in Luoyang.
The Tianyin Sect has killed an elder, a hall master, and countless minions.
Wushengdao fell a deputy hall master, and the dark line they had arranged in countless official eunuchs throughout Luoyang had also been uprooted.
The emperor and empress were so powerful that they were terrifying.
Although Li Xuan has done a lot of things in this, he always feels that even without him, the emperor and the empress will not do badly.
The rest is just down, the key is that tonight, the case of the Luoyang County Lieutenant being killed has solved most of the mysteries.
As long as the Zhongtian Lady Seal is found, everything will be over, but that's exactly what happened?
"Bang Bang!" The sound of a board suddenly came from the front.
Li Xuan was slightly stunned, her thoughts retracted, and she walked out of the dark palace alley quickly.
As soon as I stepped out of the alley, the front immediately brightened.
Not far in front is the gate of heaven, and more than a dozen officials who have not yet left are standing on the side of the palace gate, watching from a distance, as if someone is being punished with a cane.
Has anyone angered the diva?
Li Xuan subconsciously walked out quickly, and walked to the back of the crowd, and at this time, he could clearly see that everyone had unbearable expressions on their faces.
Li Xuan was wearing a scarlet official robe under the fifth grade at the moment, and he was not conspicuous in the crowd.
At this time, many people saw him, but they all nodded slightly, and their eyes were still looking at the person who was tortured under the gate of heaven.
"Shhh Li Xuan just glanced at it, and the whole person was stunned.
Through the crowd, under the bright firelight of the Heavenly Gate, a familiar figure was lying on the ground, and the two Qianniu guards on the side were constantly hitting with their staffs.
"King Yong...... How could it be King Yong? As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, she couldn't help but cover her mouth.
"It is said that it was because King Yong behaved inappropriately in the past, and the queen of heaven was angry, so he was slightly punished with a rod of twenty!"
A voice suddenly came from behind, and Li Xuan turned around, this was a thin young man wearing a six-grade green official robe.
Seeing Li Xuan's gaze, the other party immediately gave up his hand and said in a low voice: "In the next year, the prince was appointed at the beginning of the year." ”
Li Xuan's eyebrows immediately raised, and his gaze at the other party was full of sympathy.
The prince is a person, holding the order, the table is open, and he is subordinate to the right spring fang, and the rank is six products.
Seeing that the person in front of him is not a few years older than himself, nine times out of ten he is the son of an official, and serving as the prince's house is just gold-plated.
It's a pity that this layer of gold is not plated, and it may be stained with a layer of mud!
"King Yong!" Li Xuan pointed to Li Xian, the king of Yong, who was being beaten, and then pointed to Laisui, smiled bitterly twice, and arched his hand: "Li Twenty-seven Lang, give Shang Yao Fengyu." ”
"Long admiration!" Lai Sui didn't seem to know who Li Xuan was, and he didn't care too much, so he leaned closer and whispered: "King Yong's reputation has always been bad, this time it seems that the queen of heaven directly grabbed the handle, and under the anger, he directly pulled the torture rod under the palace gate!" ”
Lai Sui seemed to know a lot about Li Xian, Li Xuan nodded slightly, this kind of official eunuch who has been in Chang'an and Luoyang all the year round naturally knows more about Li Xian, the king of Yong.
It's just that today's incident, Li Xuan's mind immediately flashed the scene of leaving from King Yong's Mansion today.
The reason why he was able to completely lock Yunshao Courtyard today was because there were several Qing people hiding in King Yong's Mansion, and as soon as he investigated the identities of these Qing people, he immediately found Yun Shao Yuan.
Li Xuan was originally very sensitive to Gentle Fang because of the Su family's father and daughter, and as soon as she found indirect evidence, she immediately did not hesitate to do it.
