Li Xian sat at the top of the study, looked sideways at Li Xuan, and said in a low voice: "Brother Huang has been busy with the finishing touches of the land recently, but he secretly visited Zuo Xiang, Zhao Guogong and Pengcheng County Duke. ”

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Why is this so, shouldn't he go to the Nine Temples Siqing, the six Shangshu monks?" ”

"I'm weird too." Li Xian frowned, and said in a low voice: "The position of prime minister is vacant, and what can be added is the Nine Temples Temple, the six Shangshu monks, and the left and right, but the imperial brother didn't look for anyone, and went directly to the left minister and the prime ministers, some like ......"

"Some of them seem to have been selected by the East Palace, and these people are not among the Nine Temples and the Six Shangshu and Shangshu." Li Xuan sighed lightly.

Li Xian has been in Luoyang before, and now that the prime minister is vacant, if it is among those above, then Li Xian should have some contact with him after returning to Chang'an.

But Li Xian didn't look for any of them.

In other words, the people Li Xian really recommended were not among these people at all.

"We're ignoring one person." Li Xuan suddenly spoke and looked at Li Xian solemnly.

Li Xian couldn't help but lean forward and asked, "Who?" ”

"The crown prince Zhan is righteous and the emperor is righteous." Li Xuan smiled softly and said helplessly: "Now that the position of prime minister is vacant, Your Majesty uses the prince's left concubine to temporarily top, and the prince sees the opportunity, so the next thing to push is naturally the people of the East Palace." ”

Li Xian nodded slowly, the other six Shangshu, the Nine Temples Siqing, and the Shangshu left and right, may be close to the East Palace, but they are definitely not as good as the East Palace's own people.

Prince Zhan Shi is Donggong's own person.

In the early years of Huangfu Gongyi, he was Li Xian's chief of the Yongwang Mansion, and later became the prince of Zhengsanpin, Zhan Shi.

Prince Zhan was originally prepared by the prime minister, so it is normal to go further, and it is extremely justifiable.

"This position of prime minister is not for the East Palace to show that his position is stable." Li Xuan shook his head slightly, he broke Li Xian's thoughts in one sentence.

At this time, those who can see that the situation in the East Palace is critical are either people in the bureau or top-level people.

The rest of the people on the outside world heard a little bit of wind at most, and then became suspicious.

After all, the matter of saying that Li Xian is not the parent of the Empress Wu has never been said publicly.

It has always been the Empress Wu who has been reminding all the temples, scholars, and prime ministers in an obscure way, and there is no empirical evidence at all.

But the people around the Siqing, Shangshu and the Prime Minister have heard some rumors, and there may be some rumors later, but there are definitely not many.

What Li Xian wants to stabilize is the hearts of these people.

Those who can hear the wind are the ones who can really have the right to speak in the turmoil of the prince's abolition.

Others, irrelevant.

……

"Originally, I thought that the prince would go to Cui Zuocheng, but who would have thought that the East Palace would turn to him for help." Li Xuan sighed slightly and said, "This wind direction is very bad. ”

"After the last time General Quan was born, the prince and Cui Zuocheng have been estranged, and now at this time, how can they take the initiative to come to the door, maybe in the eyes of the imperial brother, Cui Zuocheng is no longer his own person, where is he closer than the emperor." Li Xian shook his head lightly and said with emotion: "People will change, especially after becoming the prime minister. ”

Li Xian is talking about Liu Xianli.

Before Liu Xianli became the prime minister, the relationship with the East Palace was quite good, but after Liu Xianli became the prime minister, he gradually opened up the relationship with the East Palace.

"The prime minister is already qualified as a chess player." Li Xuan glanced up at Li Xian and said softly: "You and I, I have never had the opportunity to be prime ministers in this life." ”

Li Xian nodded lightly, he himself would have a chance to be the emperor in the future, but Li Xuan would be the best at all.

"Let's go back to the East Palace." Li Xuan turned to look at Li Xian and asked seriously, "During this time, did the prince care about the affairs of the Turks?" ”

"I've asked a sentence or two, and there's no more." Li Xian shook his head.

"Just a sentence or two?" Li Xuan's brows furrowed instantly, very tightly, wrinkled like a mountain.

"What's wrong, is there something wrong?" Li Xian was surprised by Li Xuan's attention to this matter.

"Now the entire government and the opposition are staring at those Turks, and now is the time when the prince should share his worries for His Majesty, and he doesn't even care?" Li Xuan felt extremely ridiculous in her heart.

At this time, it was time for the crown prince to show his filial piety to the emperor, but he deliberately avoided it.

No, no, it's so wrong.

"Maybe it's because the things in Luozhou are too busy cleaning up the hidden fields." Li Xian's expression became solemn, he had realized something.

Even Li Xian himself was very concerned about the affairs of the Turks, but Li Xian, who should be the most concerned, did not move at all.

This was so surprising.

It seems to be to avoid suspicion, but in fact, there is a lot of flavor to cover up.

……

"By the way, there's one more thing." Li Xian looked up at Li Xuan with a solemn expression.

"What's the matter, you say." Li Xuan put down the prince for the time being and looked at Li Xian.

"A few days ago, Wei Chi secretly sent someone to look for me." Li Xian saw Li Xuan's surprised gaze, shook his head, and said with emotion: "I just said something when I was a child." ”

Previously, when Li Jingye was killed, Li Xian went to the East Palace to suppress the prince's hands and feet.

During this period, Wei Chi Xunyu and Li Xian got a lot closer, and there were many people around him.

The descendants of the nobles around the prince, in addition to the children of the family, are generally divided into two waves, one is the half-family and half-military general group centered on Gaoqi, and the other wave is the people of the pure military general group centered on Wei Chi Xunyu.

Yu Chi Xunyu, the descendant of Yu Chi Gong.

In the East Palace, it is naturally the core of everyone's attention.

Especially now that he is already a Wupin Lang general, he is also in the upper echelon among the officials of the East Palace.

"He's asking you, what should he do with the current situation?" Li Xuan sighed lightly, then shook his head and said, "Tell him that everything should be done according to the rules of the imperial court, and don't exceed the slightest...... Rest assured, he understood. ”

Li Xian didn't ask any more questions, just nodded slightly.

"I'll tell you something, too." Li Xuan spoke again and said: "The position of the prime minister is not only staring at the people of the East Palace, Pei Shangshu is also watching.

Just the day before yesterday, Pei Shangshu sent people to spread rumors in Guozijian that Wu Chengsi was coveting the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and even coveted the Huangmen Shilang and the prime minister......"

"Huh?" Li Xian looked at Li Xuan with a face full of disbelief and asked, "How come?" ”

"They're breaking up." Li Xuan shook his head lightly and said with a sigh: "Originally, it was a choice between two options, Wu Chengsi wanted to be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Pei Yan would not have the opportunity to be prime minister, so he had to completely destroy Wu Chengsi's chance." ”

"But in this way, Pei Shangshu also has no chance?" Li Xian's eyes were staring at Li Xuan tightly, he had already realized something.

Li Xuan nodded lightly and said: "Wu Chengsi will definitely be the prime minister in the future, and Pei Yan will also be the prime minister in the future, even if one is in Zhongshu Province and the other is in Menxia Province, but Wu Chengsi may not be willing to live under Pei Yan, he always has to climb on his head, in order to avoid this day coming, Pei Yan let go of his hand." ”

"So ......"

"So, you don't have to worry about anything, just remember this tacit understanding, and when there is a vacancy in the future, when the ministers are competing and His Majesty asks your opinion, you can also recommend him, so that you will have a grip in the court." Li Xuan's face was solemn.

"And where is the Father?" Li Xian was a little uncontrollable with joy.

Li Xian has never had any real help in the court, and although the other Wei family and the Cui family are moving closer to him, they have bet a lot on the crown prince and the king of Xiang.

Even if there is a Li Xuan who stands on the bright side to help him give advice, he is far away in the border state.

If there is a prime minister standing behind him, Li Xian's future will be much better.

A lot.

"Now all the prime ministers in the court are not young, and they will all go down in a few years, and after that, look at the new prime minister, Pei Shangshu may be the best candidate for the left minister, this is your own business." Li Xuan looked at Li Xian seriously, his eyes were solemn.

Li Xian's brows twitched, and he couldn't help asking, "Will there be a day?" ”

"No one wants it, but if that day does come, when His Majesty needs it, you must be well prepared." Li Xuan turned around and looked ahead.

Li Xian was silent, although he was silent, his heart swayed.

"And." Li Xuan turned to look at Li Xian and said softly: "Now that the East Palace is on the throne, San Lang, this time you have to see clearly how Erlang is trying his best to maintain his position...... In the end, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, everything in between, is worth learning and being vigilant about...... This is my most heartfelt admonition to you. ”

Looking at Li Xuan's sincere and sincere expression, Li Xian nodded lightly and said, "Maybe I should reply well, how many things has the imperial brother done as a prince over the years, what is right and what is wrong?" ”

"What is right is not necessarily useful, and what is wrong is not necessarily harmful." After Li Xuan finished speaking, looking at Li Xian's invincible appearance, Li Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.

He said so much, and Li Xian didn't hear any of the two real points.

With a slight groan, Li Xuan spoke: "Finally, you have to look at Your Majesty." ”

"Father." Li Xian came back to his senses instantly.

Thinking of the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and the cold-eyed Empress Wu beside the emperor, Li Xian instantly calmed down.

"Your Majesty is your father after all, and your love for your son is eager, you must learn from Your Majesty and love the prince." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said seriously: "San Lang, you have to remember that compared to Shiro, you lack a lot of things. What you can really reassure Your Majesty is your benevolence and filial piety...... Respect your parents and love your brothers, and the courtiers will be respectful, otherwise, you will just be a pawn to be fooled. ”

Speaking of this, Li Xuan sighed lightly, shook his head, and said: "Not to mention anything else, even with the shrewdness of His Majesty and the Queen of Heaven, there are still people hiding millions of acres of land under their noses, you can think about this matter in the future, how not to be deceived by the people below." ”

"Saburo remembered." Although Li Xian was full of thoughts in his heart, he still listened to Li Xuan's words in his heart.

Millions of acres of fertile land, what kind of wealth is that, it was robbed by others from the hands of the imperial court.

Li Xian felt distressed when he thought about it.

He decided that when he went back, he would see how Donggong found these fields.

Li Xuan glanced at Li Xian, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Li Xian has been a gentleman for so many years, although he doesn't care too much about property, but if this money is so big that it is more than all the money he spent before, he will also blush.

This is Li Xian's weakness, and if he grasps this, Li Xian will be appeased.

Especially in the future, when the money in his hand flows out faster than before, like a flood, he knows that he is afraid.

"By the way, the things you shouldn't have in your house should be cleared this year, especially this year."

"Got it." Li Xian understood the tension of the situation, paused slightly, Li Xian approached in a low voice, and asked, "Uncle Wang, do you have any medicine in your hand, the kind of medicine that can help give birth to a child?" ”

Li Xuan turned his head to look at Li Xian in surprise.
