In the Penglai Palace, Li Zhi slowly opened his eyes, and his deep gaze fell on Li Xuan, as if he could see through the deepest secret in his heart.

Li Xuan's expression was calm and still solemn.

"Do you know about Zhou Guogong?" Li Zhi finally spoke, straight to the core.

"The minister heard that Qianniuwei has gained something in Qinling, but more ministers don't know." Li Xuan bowed slightly.

"Qianniuwei found three secret workshops in the Qinling Mountains, one of which is dedicated to minting copper coins......" As soon as Li Zhi's voice fell, he saw Li Xuan already looking up with a surprised face.

Copper coins, coinage.

Li Xuan was really stunned, he didn't expect that Wu Chengsi would be so bold and dare to mint money, which was a taboo that no one was allowed to touch.

Seeing Li Xuan's somewhat dazed appearance, Li Zhi couldn't help but be a little amused, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry too much, it's just bad money, and no one uses it for the people of Luoyang, Chang'an." ”

"Yes!" Li Xuan gave up his hand and wanted to say something, but in the end he honestly shut up.

Li Zhi nodded, and then said: "In addition to the money casting workshop, there is also a shield casting workshop and a horse harness workshop, but these two places have just opened and have no scale. ”

"The minister dares to ask, what shield is it, what kind of harness?" Li Xuan bowed heavily, and then cautiously raised his eyes to look at Li Zhi.

"Rest assured, it's not the arm shield used by the cavalry, but the round shield used by the foot soldiers, although the harness is a horseshoe and a saddle horse, but the output is not as much as that scrapped in Chang'an Luoyang every year." Li Zhi waved his hand, and he could see at a glance the worry in Li Xuan's heart, but fortunately, the matter was not so serious.

"Yes!" Li Xuan got up slowly, but the seriousness between his expressions did not diminish at all.

Li Zhi knew what Li Xuan was thinking.

Wu Chenghei has committed a great taboo by privately making blades, battle armor, shields and horse harness in the mountains.

Not to mention Li Xuan, any prime minister in the DPRK and China will fight to the end with Wu Chenghe.

"The heir is just a little greedy for money, and he doesn't have so many messy thoughts, but this matter, after all, can't be ignored, Twenty-seven Lang, tell me, if it is according to you, how should he be punished for this matter?"

Li Zhi's gaze never left Li Xuan's face, as if he really wanted to know what he really thought in his heart.

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked surprised, when, this kind of thing, the emperor needs to ask for the opinions of others.

Gathering his thoughts a little, Li Xuan took a deep breath, and then cautiously muttered: "Back to Your Majesty, the matter of Zhou Guogong, although the consequences are not serious, but the impact is really not small, so the minister suggests that he return to the state to worship the ancestral land?" ”

"Hide?" Li Zhi nodded slowly, as if he was really thinking about this problem, and then he tasted some flavor, squinted his eyes and asked, "Is that all?" ”

Li Xuan bowed his hand again and said, "If Your Majesty still has ideas in his heart, then it is not impossible to let Zhou Guogong inspect Andong, Hebei." ”

"Inspect Anton." Li Zhi understood the true intention of Li Xuan's words in one sentence.

The so-called hiding is just a nice way to put it.

Then it is not good to say, it is demotion and exile, exile of Anton.

"As the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, inspect Anton, take a look at the situation in Silla and the Wa Kingdom, wait for a year or two, the matter will subside, and then transfer Zhou Guogong back?" Li Xuan cautiously raised his eyes to look at Li Zhi.

Li Zhi smiled, waved his hand and said, "Don't be so cautious, you can go to Anton, Mobei, Fuguang, and Lingnan." ”

"Yes!" Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and stopped talking, he knew that the emperor had a fixed opinion in his heart.

"It should be cleared, Qianniuwei has been cleared in advance, heir, just let him go." Li Zhi waved his hand.

"Yes! Li Xuan bowed her head slightly. ”

……

"By the way, let's talk about Luoyang?" Li Zhi looked at Li Xuan with a smile and said, "This time I suddenly recalled Ling from Pengzhou, you won't blame me for not letting you rest well, after all, I originally promised to let you rest for two months after the war." ”

"Your Majesty has a call, even if it is a sea of swords and fire, the minister will go straight forward, and this time in Songshan, there is also Taoism and quietness, and the minister is not nothing." Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "There is nothing else, just a few children, who promised to have fun with them, but they didn't get their wish." ”

Li Zhi nodded, he could see that Li Xuan's words came from the bottom of his heart.

The only thing he regrets is his children's affairs.

Where do children understand that their parents are difficult, and if you don't accompany them, they will immediately dare to throw their faces at you.

But what about parents.

"I have already asked people to pick up Princess Peng and them back to Beijing, and for the rest of the days, you can accompany your family well." Li Zhi sighed lightly, and then said: "Luoyang's affairs, although you don't have to worry about the follow-up, but you still have to give an explanation to me about the previous things." ”

"Yes!" Li Xuan arched his hand and said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, although the matter in Luoyang is easy to calm down, and there is not much involved, but it is mostly because Qianniuwei inspected in advance and has a target, so that the minister can wipe out all those people." ”

Li Zhi smiled, although it was Qianniuwei who came forward in this matter, it was the secret guard who actually handled the case, and even directly shot it was Li Xuan's cousin Zhao Gong.

However, Li Xuan didn't know about this from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have returned to Pengzhou so soon.

"Go on, what do you see from your perspective?" Li Zhi's face was full of relaxation, but in the depths of his eyes, which no one could see, there was a trace of coldness.

"Yes!" Li Xuan arched his hand, looked at the emperor carefully, and said seriously: "Actually, the minister still feels that this matter is a little too easy, maybe the minister has been fighting on the front line for many years, and he always feels that King Yue's rebellion this time is too child's play." ”

"How is it child's play?" Li Zhi's body leaned back slightly, and his expression gradually cooled.

"It's so unrealistic." Li Xuan bowed down and said: "The minister interrogated Xiao Guan, although he and Xiao Decong have a plan, but this plan is just to take advantage of His Majesty's eastern tour and seize the opportunity of His Majesty's laxity, but this opportunity is not at all, only with five hundred people, how to break through the extremely strict guards." ”

What Xiao Guan and they were looking for was indeed a soldier who had retreated from the grassland battlefield, but these people had retreated after all.

The training killing intent has been reduced by half, how can it be compared to the strict guards in the army.

If the ruler of the palace is a brainless waste, then they may be able to take advantage of the chaos to win.

But the emperor who sits in charge of everything is Li Zhi, how can they succeed.

"Your Majesty's safety, not to mention the prime minister of the DPRK and China, or the generals of the guards, will be extremely vigilant."

After a slight pause, Li Xuan arched his hand and said: "Looking at the history books, the things in this have always been the result of internal and external collusion, but if you act in isolation, there will never be a winner." ”

Several rebellions in this dynasty, the crown prince Li Xian, the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the Qin king Li Shimin, were all attacked from within the palace.

Almost instantly, he was able to hit the Xuanwu Sect.

Li Xuan didn't believe that King Yue had this ability and could appear directly in Xuanwu Gate.

Li Zhi didn't seem to realize that Li Xuan had brought the topic to a very dangerous situation in silence.

Li Xuan arched his hand and continued: "The minister said something rebellious, that is, Luoyang really has something, what can it be, King Yue is just the son of the first emperor, His Majesty has inherited the unification for more than 30 years, officials, families, and people all bow their heads, even if King Yue really has something, the world is rising, and King Qin is auxiliary to the government, he only has one way to die." ”

After speaking, Li Xuan knelt down directly, bowed and said: "The minister's words are exaggerated, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Li Zhi raised his hand lightly and said: "Get up, what you said is right, Luoyang is only the eastern capital after all, Chang'an is the center of the world, it is my eastern tour, it is my Fengzen, Chang'an will also leave enough manpower, not to mention that there is still the emperor's grandson, and Shiro's son, who will not go to Luoyang." ”

Li Xuan's forehead was pressed against the cold floor, his face was solemn, and at the same time there was a hint of resentment.

"Although the king of Yue is confused, he will not understand, there is a prime minister sitting in Chang'an, and there are all kinds of dangers, you are in Fanzhou, if there is something, you can lead the army back within seven days, and you will not be in danger of Hangu Pass, and you can't even support it for seven days." Li Zhi's eyes seemed to see through the fog in front of him, and he said with emotion: "Someone is secretly plotting." ”

Li Xuan bowed his head heavily.

Li Zhi continued to speak and asked, "Twenty-seven Lang, you say, if this is the case, who is most likely to benefit?" ”

In this case, what is the situation, Luoyang has completely fallen, the emperor is dead, the Empress Wu is dead, Li Xian is dead, Li Dan is dead, so in this case, who may benefit in the end?

Two names suddenly flashed in Li Xuan's mind, and his whole body suddenly trembled uncontrollably.

"Say!" Li Zhi grabbed the incense burner on the side and slammed it on the floor in front of Li Xuan.

The lid of the incense burner flew up and smashed directly on Li Xuan's forehead.

Li Xuan immediately felt the impact of a huge force, and the whole person couldn't help but fall backwards, but he still forcibly held back.

"Back to Your Majesty, it depends on where the abolished prince will be at that time, if it is in Luoyang, then the benefit, I am afraid it will be King Qi and King Xu, if he is in Chang'an, unless someone supports him, it will not be his turn, and in the end it will be King Qi and King Xu." Li Xuan fell to the ground again.

The entire Penglai Hall suddenly fell silent, and after a long time, Li Zhi sighed and spoke: "The matter of King Yue, I count too much on Xiao Dezhao, if Xiao Dezhao kills his relatives at a critical moment and kills Xiao Guan, then all the plans of King Yue will come to naught." ”

Li Xuan's expression suddenly changed, and he bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, and the minister has neglected to observe." ”

"You just look at it from a normal point of view, the relationship between father and son, the worry of annihilation, at the critical moment, it is normal for Xiao Dezhao to choose his son, but the real glutton, the thinking is extremely thorough, the current case, it seems to be direct and simple, and the threat is also big, but in fact it is just a child's cranky thoughts." Li Zhibing sneered.

"Child?" Li Xuan raised his head sideways, looked at Li Zhi and said, "Your Majesty, is this matter ......?"

"No need, this matter is the result of the cranky thoughts of the two little cubs." Li Zhi waved his hand directly and said: "When the secret guards arrested King Yue, King Yue was still dealing with official affairs, and King Yue didn't know anything about the rebellion and rebellion, and he didn't have any preparation for the corresponding things. ”

"Li Chong?" Li Xuan's face was full of disbelief, but at the same time, he also arched his hand and said: "The minister hasn't actually seen Li Chong a few times, how can this person ...... How? ”

"Why was you suddenly lost in your mind?" Li Zhi stared at Li Xuan.
