Zhao Gong calmly walked in from the rear, and everyone around him got out of the way.

A familiar hideous face appeared in front of Zhao Gong, and Li Jingye, who was lying on the ground, had his eyes wide open, staring at the top deadly.

It's like when he was standing, staring at Li Xuan.

However, the blood line on the neck has already signaled the death of a generation of heroes.

"Uncle, let's look for it and see if there are any other useful things hidden here." Li Xuan's gaze fell on the room in front of him.

It's an ordinary ashram.

It's just that it's important because of the key location.

"Search it." Zhao Gong waved his hand to the back, and a group of secret guards had already rushed in and began to search carefully.

His eyes swept over Li Jingye's corpse again, and Zhao Gong sighed lightly.

He knew that he didn't need to look at it anymore, just by looking at that look, he knew that person was definitely Li Jingye.

Li Xuan slowly put the long sword in his hand into the scabbard, and then looked at Zhao Gong: "Uncle, let the people below go down the mountain, collect those corpses under the mountain overnight, and tomorrow, my nephew will personally escort them back to Chang'an...... As for him, he was secretly escorted by his uncle to the north gate. ”

"Okay, so be it." Zhao Gong nodded lightly.

He knew that this was the best thing the emperor wanted.

Li Jingye is dead, but on the surface, no one can be sure that he is dead, and no one can grasp this matter in any way.

If someone has to say that it must be Li Jingye who died in Huashan, then ask him to come up with evidence.

If he can't take it out, it's okay to say, once he takes it out, then he already knows where Li Jingye is hiding, and hides it.

A rebellious hat will be buttoned up immediately.

Li Xuan waved his hand to the Qianniu guards around him, and said: "Send back the real people in each room, from today on, the Taoist priests on the mountain are not allowed to go down the mountain, until after the New Year, all the food supply during this period is all responsible for the imperial court, on time and according to the place, everyone eats in a unified manner, and no private use is allowed...... If he is sick, Qianniuwei delivers food, and then watches him finish eating. ”

"Whoa!" All the Qianniuwei immediately surrendered.

Zhao Gong glanced at Li Xuan and didn't say anything more.

He knew that Li Xuan was preventing something else from happening, so he completely put an end to it.

Three months is enough time for everyone to forget Li Jingye.

As for three months, everything should be ready for the imperial court.

It's the same even if it's a deposed prince.

……

On the Weishui, the official ship moved forward slowly.

The northeast wind blows the sails and whirls in the ears.

Li Xuan's gaze retracted from the distant Huashan, and his face was solemn.

He didn't know if the guards had found anything related to the prince in that room.

and Li Jingye's body, whether he is hiding any secrets related to the prince.

Once found, then Li Xian will be deposed immediately.

All this will depend on the attitude of the emperor.

Why did Li Xuan secretly kill Li Jingye, because he wanted to invalidate all the evidence that could be found from Li Jingye.

No one can use it.

Because they can't explain where the evidence comes from.

That's the big picture.

But there are some things that you can understand in your heart, and if you want to say it, you need to be cautious.

Behind this matter, what Li Xuan really cares about is the emperor's attitude.

Li Jingye is dead, Xiao Tianzi is dead, is the world stable?

No.

Behind Li Jingye, there are a large number of hidden people who need to be dealt with one by one.

Behind Xiao Tianzi, there are countless Turkic people who are dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty, and if they don't rebel this time, it doesn't mean that they won't next time.

There is also the matter of Ming Chongyan, until now, there is no reasonable conclusion to the matter of Ming Chongyan, and if it is not a day, this matter will not be finished for a day.

The most important thing is the crown prince.

What to do with the prince?

……

Li Xuan's eyes drooped, and his right hand clenched the hilt of the sword, at the moment these were not his problems, but the emperor's problems.

Li Xuan has done all the things he should do in this matter now, and there is only one thing he needs to do now.

That is to pave the way for Li Xian.

Li Xian was deposed and Li Xian came to power, so he needed to face the same situation as Li Xian.

Fight for power with the Empress Wu.

How does Li Xian have to fight for power with the Empress Wu in order to ensure that he can actually have rights, and then unlike Li Xian, he was calculated by the Empress Wu to be abolished.

In the original history, Li Xian arched his hands and did nothing, so after he ascended the throne, it would be extremely easy to be abolished by the Empress Wu.

How does Li Xuan need to help Li Xian so that he can avoid the final ending.

These are all things that Li Xuan needs to think clearly.

Because once Li Xian faces the Empress Shangwu, then it is equivalent to Li Xuan, who has been giving advice behind Li Xian's back, against the Empress Shangwu.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Li Xuan's breathing became heavy.

Facing Empress Wu head-on, Li Xuan asked himself, does he have that ability?

With his eyes downcast, thinking about all that he had, Li Xuan told himself that he had.

But his real enemy is not only Empress Wu, his real enemy, there is also a more fierce figure hidden behind everything, the emperor.

In the current matter, the emperor has never really helped Li Xian.

But as long as he really said to Li Xian, you are your mother's own son, and everything else will be gone.

Yes, no.

However, he did nothing.

He watched it happen.

Li Xuan didn't even understand what Li Zhi thought, and he actually watched Li Xian step by step in the battle with Empress Wu to the point of being abolished.

Why, exactly?

Li Xuan shook his head slightly, this question is not important.

He just needs to understand that Li Xian will come to power next.

What Li Xuan needs to do is to find out all the true powers of the martial queen, and then eliminate them step by step.

It's like Li Xuan cleared Qiu Shenqi and Ming Chongyan at the beginning.

So the next one is Yuan Wanqing, Fan Lubing, Pei Yan, or Wu Chenghei.

The front is smooth, and the Chunming Gate in front of you is in front of you in a blink of an eye.

The big ship stopped outside the Chunming Gate, and Li Xuan didn't care how many watching eyes there were outside, he quickly got off the boat, and then rode quickly towards the palace.

……

Outside the Zichen Palace, Li Xuan bowed his head deeply and looked solemn.

"It is rumored that Li Xuan, the king of Nanchang, has come to see me." In the shouting of the chamberlain, Li Xuan lowered his head solemnly and walked quickly into the Zichen Palace.

"Minister Nanchang Wang Xuan, I was ordered to handle the case, and now everything is done, please submit the order." Li Xuan took out the holy decree and gold medal from his body and handed it over.

Li Zhi waved his hand to the side, and Wang Fulai immediately stepped forward and took the holy decree and token from Li Xuan's hand.

Without these, Li Xuan would not have any right to continue the investigation and arrest and kill people in Chang'an City.

Li Zhi looked at Li Xuan with deep eyes, and asked in a soft voice: "Twenty-seven Lang, what do you say about Li Jingye, how should I deal with it?" ”

"Your Majesty, now that there is evidence in the court, the British public and private fled from Liuzhou, and according to the law, they should be exempted from all their lords and all official positions, and they should be traced down according to the fugitives, and if they resist, they can be killed immediately." Li Xuan bowed seriously, and in his words, it was as if Li Jingye was still alive.

"Okay, everything will be done as you say, the affairs of Chang'an Luoyang have nothing to do with Li Jingye." Li Zhi smiled lightly, and then his expression became solemn again: "Although I said that, but you and I know the truth of the matter, so in the Lingyan Pavilion, the spiritual seat of the British Duke, how should I deal with it?" ”

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, then arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the British Duke, has made great contributions to my Tang Dynasty, to the royal family, and to Your Majesty, the Queen of Heaven, the same is true." ”

Li Xuan said, bowed deeply to the emperor and Empress Wu, and said sincerely: "But now Li Jingye is at fault, how to deal with it is all in the hands of His Majesty and the prime ministers, and the non-ministers can put their beaks in their mouths." ”

"If I tell you to say it, you just say, don't make any detours." Li Zhi's face sank slightly, and he was a little unhappy.

"Obey." Li Xuan immediately gave up his hand in fear, then got up, and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, Li Jingye is plotting rebellion, although it is covered up on the surface, but the world knows it, so there must be a punishment, and according to the law, it is still necessary to implicate the ancestors, even if it is the same as the ministers of the Lingyan Pavilion, but Li Jingye's matter did not cause too many problems, so the ministers ranked the British Duke Lingyan Pavilion from twenty-three to the last, and at the same time deposed the descendants of his descendants, and awarded all official titles for merit, alerting the world." ”

"Future generations will protect their ancestors." Li Zhi nodded slowly, with a thoughtful expression.

Empress Wu listened on the sidelines, and when she originally talked about the order of the tablets of Li Tao, she was just nodding calmly, because she had thought about this idea before.

Dropped from twenty-third to twenty-fourth, although it seems that it has only dropped by one place, but in fact it has fallen to the last, and the warning meaning is very strong.

But the real ruthlessness is still to come.

Ordinary people can't see this layer, and only the family knows how powerful it is.

Therefore, when the descendants of his descendants are deposed, after all the knights are knighted for duke, ordinary people will only applaud and say that the emperor is merciful, but in fact, once the official titles awarded by his descendants are deposed, there is no connection between Li Li's descendants and the imperial court.

Even in the future, the sacrifices of Lingyan Pavilion were all sacrificed by the royal family, and there was nothing to do with the Li family.

The means are more ruthless, let them directly restore the surname Xu.

Even from now on, every time the royal family sacrifices to Lingyan Pavilion, it is equivalent to a slap in the face of the Xu family.

This kind of punishment is absolutely direct and cruel, and it will definitely make countless people take warning.

But for the others, the meritorious ministers related to Li Li were enough to appease.

They themselves have little to do with Li Jingye's rebellion.

Now that Li Wei's tablet has not been moved out of Lingyan Pavilion, they are satisfied enough.

In this matter, only Li Qian's descendants were really injured.

……

"Okay, that's what Twenty-Seven said." Li Zhi nodded gently, and said with a smile: "Twenty-seven Lang has always thought thoughtfully. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your protection." Li Xuan bowed heavily with a solemn expression.

The emperor is protecting him, no matter what, Li Jingye died in the hands of Li Xuan, and everyone in the world knows it, but he can't put it on the table.

Now, Li Xuan's strategy has kept Li Xuan's tablet in Lingyan Pavilion, and those people, in turn, have to thank Li Xuan.

Li Zhi waved his hand and said, "Everything is done by yourself, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

"Whoa!" Li Xuan bowed slightly, then stood up.

Li Zhi turned sideways, looked at Empress Wu, and said calmly: "Hengshui, Luozhou, Chang'an, and Jiangnan affairs, after all the matters are dealt with, let the prince go to Lingyan Pavilion on behalf of me, and lower the tablet of the British Duke." ”

"Yes!" Empress Wu nodded seriously, Li Xuan's expression was solemn, and her breathing became very light for a while.

Li Zhi turned his head, looked at Li Xuan, and said, "What are you going to do next?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Changzhou will march into Subi next year, and the minister needs to apply to the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of War, and other departments to transfer materials, as well as soldiers and horses, in addition, Changzhou is ripe this year, and next year it can receive 2,000 displaced people into Changzhou to farm, and it needs to be coordinated by the Ministry of Households.

There are also three Tuyuhun people and four Dangxiang people who want to participate in next year's imperial examination, and they need to coordinate with the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Officials and the Honglu Temple, and the ministers also have to prepare gifts for the great dynasty at the end of the year......"

Li Xuan counted the things he needed to do one by one, although he was not in Changzhou now, he still had a lot of things to do.

"Okay, then don't get involved in the rest of the matter." Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile: "Okay, go back and prepare, the marriage between you and the Jun of Guangping County, the holy decree will be issued immediately." ”

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth twitched slightly, and he arched his hand: "The ministers are grateful." ”
