Chapter 1326 Target: Abolish the crown prince Li Xian
The black carriage walked along the Imperial City Street, all the way through the Suzaku Gate, and entered the Suzaku Street.
Fifty black-armored cavalry gathered from both sides, and then escorted Li Xuan to the outside of the city.
Li Xuan sat in the carriage and did not look back, knowing that he didn't know how many eyes fell from the city gate to his carriage.
Cheng Wuting, Praetorian General.
When Li Xuan, the general of the right guard, entered the palace, I am afraid that all the guards in the palace will be nervous.
Just like Pei Xingjian.
Cheng Wuting is naturally no exception.
Li Xuan calmly looked at the swaying car curtain in front of her, and her mind fell on Cheng Wuting.
It stands to reason that Li Xuan and Cheng Wuting have no correspondence and intersection.
The only place where the two sides can have a relationship is on Pei Xingjian.
Cheng Wuting and Zhang Qianqiao backstabbed Pei Xingjian in the Turkic war.
It doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, although the emperor has a tendency, he did not speak after all.
As deputy generals, the two of you directly colluded with the prime minister of the DPRK and China and backstabbed the commander-in-chief of the army, and the generals in the army were very despised.
Even if you are finally transferred to the rank of Praetorian General, the attitude of the generals in the army will not change.
Li Xuan's eyes were slightly condensed, if you look at it from this point of view, the two of them are really good candidates to guard the palace gate.
Li Xuan suddenly sat up straight, his eyes narrowed slightly, was the emperor guarding against the others of the Sixteen Guards?
Find a clan to make the long history of Peng Wangfu, and when the time comes, you can get the command of 10,000 right guard elites from Peng Wangfu with just a secret decree.
As long as the 10,000 right guards move slightly, then half of the army in the entire Yongluo region will have to be honest.
In addition, in Zuowei, there is also Wang Xiaojie, and he is afraid that there are a lot of arrangements on his side.
The left and right guards joined forces, and all the armies of the entire Yongluo could be suppressed.
Is the emperor preparing for the future?
I was afraid of the turmoil of the imperial succession, so I prepared in advance.
It's not like ah, with the prestige of the emperor, if someone is threatened, just transfer it away.
Li Xuan, the general of the right guard, is in Fanzhou, and Pei Xingjian, the general of the Janissalian, is in Yangzhou.
Both of them were arranged far away, and the emperor was worried about something.
Li Xuan's brows furrowed tightly, from his point of view, the current layout does not seem to be on defense at all, and while it is biased towards control, it is more inclined to move.
The emperor wanted to do something to someone, so that the real killer weapon was hidden under the hands of Li Xuan, the general of the right guard.
Li Xuan could already smell the smell of bloody rain.
But he couldn't see who the emperor was targeting.
Li Xuan sighed lightly, his own layout in Chang'an was too little after all.
In other words, Li Xuan's layout is aimed at the Imperial Palace, the East Palace, the Prime Minister, Shangshu, Yongzhou Mansion and Chang'an Wannian County.
For this kind of intrigue hidden in an invisible place, Li Xuan's eyeliner really doesn't play a big role.
Of course, if Li Xuan really uses all his strength to investigate, I believe that he will still be able to find out something.
It's just that since this matter is not aimed at him, or even anyone around him, there is no need for him to expose too much of his power because of this.
……
Outside the car curtain, the hustle and bustle of Chang'an City came to the face.
Li Xuan chuckled, he was able to confirm this, because from yesterday to today, he said through different channels that he was leaving Chang'an, but until now, nothing has happened to him.
When he entered the palace today, the emperor did not summon him.
It can be seen that the emperor's mind is not on him at all, and even the longer he leaves, the better.
This kind of thing, since you don't have anything to do with yourself, then don't get your hands dirty.
Since the emperor wants to do something to someone, then sooner or later he will show his feet.
It's just that by that time, it may be too late.
But what does it matter to you?
Since the emperor is eyeing something, it is difficult for others to compete with him for benefits, and the key is that what can make the emperor act so carefully is definitely not an ordinary opponent.
Li Xuan's expression became solemn, it is better to watch this matter first.
"Da Da Da!" A hurried sound of horses' hooves came from ahead, interrupting Li Xuan's thoughts at the same time.
Li Xuan looked up and saw a servant running along the gallop road, speeding towards the palace.
"Get out of the way." Li Xuan's cold voice came out, and the cavalry around him immediately stepped aside slightly.
"Inquire about what's going on?"
"Whoa!" Li Zhu immediately gave up his hand, and then walked away quickly.
The carriage continued to move forward, and when the carriage left the Jinguang Gate, Li Zhu had already chased it back, and at the same time handed over a secret letter.
After Li Xuan opened it, he just glanced at it, and his pupils instantly constricted.
King of Yongjia County, 薨.
Li Xuan's fists suddenly clenched, how could it be?
Li Yan, the king of Yongjia County, the eldest son of Li Yuanxiang, the king of Jiang, the son of the prince, and the history of Fuzhou Thorn.
At the beginning of the year, King Jiang died of illness in Chang'an, and now less than a year has passed, the eldest son of King Jiang, the son of King Jiang, and Li Yan, the king of Yongjia County, died again.
That's a little wrong.
"Is someone doing the game?" Li Xuan looked at the secret letter and frowned.
Li Xuan and King Jiang are not in harmony, although not many people know about it, but there are definitely not a few.
Now that King Jiang is dying one after another, it is inevitable that people will suspect Li Xuan.
In particular, King Jiang died shortly after Li Xuan left Chang'an, and King Yongjia died shortly after Li Xuan returned to Chang'an.
If someone with a heart forcibly climbs, it will inevitably be a little troublesome.
Wait, no.
Li Xuan's gaze became solemn, although he and King Jiang had some contradictions, they had not yet reached the point of killing.
So how did King Yongjia die?
Li Xuan sighed lightly, Li Xuan is not a good person, he is gentle and elegant on the surface, but he has a bad stomach behind his back.
If someone really wants to kill him, there are too many means.
Li Xuan looked down at the secret letter, and there was only one word on it.
King Jiang has just died less than a year ago, and the filial piety period has not yet passed, if it were someone else, Li Xuan would guess that he died of excessive sadness, but King Jiang is in the same vein......
Hey?
Li Xuan's brows furrowed quietly, King Jiang, King Yongjia County, if you count King Cao, then the three kings of the clan have passed away this year.
Li Xuan's breathing suddenly became heavy, could it really be in the palace?
If Li Yan did not die normally, then nine times out of ten, he would still be in the palace.
King Cao is in the palace, so what about King Jiang?
King Cao was involved in the Changzhou rebellion case, so what about the king of Yongjia County, is he also involved?
Li Xuan let his thoughts fly away, not at all because there was any support from reality.
King Cao is dead, King Yongjia is dead, then there is only one person who will be connected to everything after that.
Li Xian.
Li Xuan once heard Li Xian mention that someone wanted to send Li Xian out of the palace.
In this matter, Li Xuan asked Li Xian to resolutely refuse.
On the surface, although Li Xian is the abolished prince, he was once the prince after all, and once he leaves Beijing, he will immediately threaten Li Xian.
So Li Xian resolutely couldn't let Li Xian leave.
In fact, they are really worried that once Li Xian leaves Beijing, I am afraid that he will die in a foreign land at some point.
Li Ming's death is an example, that is, if you are a prince again, once you are deposed as a concubine, a mediocre official can take your life.
Li Xuan sighed lightly, lifted the curtain, and said, "Let's go, go to the right guard camp, and at the same time let people pay attention to the wind direction of Chang'an at any time to see what is going on." ”
"Whoa!" Li Zhu immediately gave up, and then quickly left.
The convoy continued on its way to the Right Guard Battalion.
……
It was dark, and five hundred black-armored cavalry escorted the black-driven carriage to the Golden Light Gate.
An arm stretched out and waved slightly, and the next moment, four hundred black-armored cavalrymen had turned around and headed back.
Li Xuan, escorted by a hundred black-armored cavalry, slowly entered Chang'an City, and then headed towards Kaihuafang.
Back at Kaihuafang, Peng Wangfu, Li Bi greeted him as soon as possible.
"How's that, have you found out?" Li Xuan walked towards the middle hall.
Li Bi nodded solemnly and said, "The news from the palace is that the king of Yongjia County is ...... He died of a wind. ”
"Huh?" Li Xuan suddenly stopped and looked at Li Bi in disbelief: "What's the matter?" ”
Li Bi spread his hands helplessly and didn't say any more.
Li Xuan couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "Without King Jiang, sure enough, this person is becoming more and more unscrupulous." ”
Li Xuan shook his head, waved his hand, and said, "We don't care about this matter. ”
"Whoa!" Li Bi bowed, then turned to leave.
Li Xuan walked into the main hall quickly, and Liu Jinyu was sitting in the main hall waiting for Li Xuan.
Seeing Li Xuan coming back, he then handed the letter in his hand to Li Xuan, and then said: "There is an edict in the palace, Wang Xue of Yongjia County, the body is sent back to Jiangzhou for burial, Zongzheng Temple sends people to deal with the funeral, and those who are close to the kings can participate in the funeral." ”
Li Xuan took the letter and glanced at it, and said: "Send a letter to Li Yan and ask him to go as a member of the army in Peng Wangfu. ”
"Good!" Liu Jinyu nodded, and then she looked at Li Xuan again: "How is the matter of the palace governor?" ”
"The prince said that it is a distant branch clan, but he doesn't know who it is." After Li Xuan finished speaking, he sat down on the side, then took a sip of the hot tea on the side, and said: "We guessed right, people are not from the palace, and they don't go to Fanzhou. ”
Liu Jinyu sat down on the other side, frowned, and said: "The clan, it is the clan, there are not many talents in the distant branch clan, there are not many talents in the court, such a person, His Majesty has not been able to send it to various positions for training, how can it be sent to the palace, although it is said that there is a meaning of staring at the right guard, but I always feel that there is a deep meaning." ”
"It's better not to guess about this matter, as long as that person obeys His Majesty's orders and can do things with His Majesty's holy decree, I will support it with all our might." Li Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this is also what Your Majesty is really looking at, don't go to the bottom of it, just see if you listen or not." ”
Liu Jinyu nodded, but her expression was still thinking, and after a while, she couldn't help but speak: "Husband, if that person's body has other functions besides the history of the palace, how about it?" ”
Li Xuan's eyes sank, nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, the position of the palace is just a layer of skin, and in the end, it depends on what position he holds." ”
Liu Jinyu agreed.
After sorting out the clue a little, Li Xuan continued: "Weifu always feels that this time everything is laid out by His Majesty, but the situation is scattered, and it is difficult to see the clues, but if this palace governor, King Cao, King Jiang, and King Yongjia can see the connection, then the purpose will naturally be able to see clearly." ”
"Husband thinks that this time His Majesty's methods are aimed at the royal family?" Liu Jinyu's brows suddenly tightened.
"No, if it is against the royal family, Your Majesty does not need to use this method." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said: "If it is for the husband's layout, then getting rid of the royal family is probably just a peripheral means, and the real goal should be to hide behind the royal family, the one who really treats the royal family as a puppet......"
"Changzhou is plotting rebellion." Liu Jinyu suddenly came to her senses and looked at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan also had a look of surprise: "Could it be that King Jiang, King Yongjia and King Cao are all involved in the rebellion case?" ”
"Let's wait and see." Liu Jinyu's face suddenly became ugly, and there was a name on her lips that she couldn't say.
Deposed Prince Li Xian.
