After Di Renjie's death, the seven phases of the imperial court became six phases, Zhang Cambodia, Yao Chong, Wei Anshi, Yang Zaisi, Doulu Wangqin, Zong Chuke, among which Zhang Cambodia and Yao Chong were royalists who followed Di Renjie and supported Li Tang's reinstatement, but it is not known whether they supported Li Xian, the king of Luling, or Li Dan, the king of Xiang.

Wei Anshi was born in the Wei family in Chang'an, and because of Princess Wei, he was a staunch supporter of Li Xian, the king of Luling, and it is a well-known thing.

The other three phases, Yang Zaisi, Doulu Wangqin and Zong Chuke, among which Yang Zaisi was promoted to the prime minister by the Zhang brothers, and he was actually the representative of the interests of the Zhang brothers in the political affairs hall, while Zong Chuke was a member of the Wu family and a supporter of the Wu family.

Only Doulu Wangqin is extremely old, and he is very slippery, he resolutely defends the interests of the Zhang brothers during the court meeting and supports Yang Zaisi's plan, but he has a very strong personal relationship with Wu Sansi, but he sometimes feels that Li Tang is withering, so many people think that he is the second in Su Wei, ambiguous, everyone supports it, but no one supports it.

Due to the death of Di Renjie, there was an extra phase in the court, but Emperor Wu Zetian never expressed his position, and this phase became the target of competition among various factions.

The Zhang brothers wanted to recommend their uncle, Taiyuan Mansion Yin Zhang Shenwang to enter the phase, the prime minister Li Dan wanted to recommend the Taifu Temple Qing Huan Yanfan to enter the phase, Wu Sansi wanted to recommend his son-in-law Cao Wen to the phase, and Princess Taiping wanted to recommend her henchman Gao Jian to the phase, and the king of Luling, who had been relatively silent, also publicly stated that he thought that Zhang Shuo, the squire of the military department, was talented and had enough qualifications, and was the best candidate for the country.

In order to compete for this phase, the various factions actively moved and showed their own means, and for a time the government and the opposition paid attention, and the serious injury of Wu Youning was quickly forgotten, and almost everyone was concerned about the emergence of a new Xiangguo.

However, because Wu Sansi was involved in the assassination of Wu Youning and was publicly beaten by Wu Zetian, which also affected his status in the heart of the Son of Heaven to a certain extent, many people think that Cao Wen is unlikely to be in the prime minister, and some ministers are even more outspoken in private, and Cao Wen, who is not very qualified, has become the first competitor to be out.

Zhang Cambodia is undoubtedly the head of the hundred officials after Di Renjie, he was single-handedly promoted and recommended by Di Renjie to enter the picture, but his style is not the same as the outspoken Di Renjie.

Perhaps because of his lack of qualifications, Zhang Cambodia kept silent in the turbulent phase competition, which was undoubtedly a wise move, but as the head of a hundred officials, his silence gave people the impression of inaction, and even more so that those who opposed him seized the truth.

This puts Zhang Cambodia in a dilemma, who should he support, or who he should not support, and introduce a new candidate for Xiangguo.

In the room, Zhang Cambodia paced back and forth, deeply worried about the chaos in front of him, and the court was clearly showing signs of decay compared to five years ago.

On the one hand, this is because the saint is old and weak, and his energy is much less than before, and on the other hand, it is also because the Zhang brothers usurped power, which seriously disrupted the order of the court.

"Qi Yu Xiangguo!"

One of the people engaged in the door reported: "General Li of the Thousand Cavalry Battalion asks to see him." ”

It was Li Zhen who came to find him, Zhang Cambodia nodded, "Please let him in!"

After a while, Li Zhen walked into Zhang Cambodia's official room quickly, and said with a smile: "Uninvited, disturb Xiangguo." ”

"It's okay, General Li, please take a seat. ”

Li Zhen is Di Renjie's son-in-law and a high-ranking official with great influence in the military, Zhang Cambodia will be very polite and reasonable, and he still has an idea in his heart to pull Li Zhen to his side.

The two sat down, and Zhang Cambodia let his entourage serve tea again, and he asked with concern: "What is the situation in Di Mansion now?"

"Now the mood of the family in the house is still relatively stable, and the saint has promised to transfer the heir of light back to the imperial court, which will undoubtedly give the Di Mansion a backbone, and it should gradually return to normal, thank you Xiangguo for your concern. ”

"Hey, I don't care enough!"

Zhang Cambodia said with a wry smile: "There have been too many messy things recently, especially the lack of a minister in the political hall, many things can't be done, and they basically come to a standstill." ”

Li Zhen said with a smile: "It's not so serious! Although it is a little inconvenient to lose a photo, it will not reach the point of a pause in the political affairs hall!"

Zhang Cambodia sighed and said: "In the past, when Di Xiang was here, whenever there was a dispute over government affairs, a seven-phase vote was implemented, and the result was always passed by four to three, and now Di Xiang unfortunately died, Yang Zaisi and others wanted to take the opportunity to seize power in the political hall, and they would not agree to any government affairs I suggested, and many things were frozen." ”

Of course, Li Zhen knew what he was referring to, Yang Zaisi, Zong Chuke, and Dou Lu Wangqin were not of the same mind as Zhang Khan Zhi and others, but now there are two major factions in the political affairs hall, and they happen to account for three people each, and they are evenly matched, so of course many things can't be promoted.

"Did Zhang Xiangguo talk to the saint?"

Zhang Cambodia shook his head and said very frustratedly: "I have looked for the saint, but the saint's attitude is vague, let me try to coordinate, don't bother her with these little things, the saint doesn't want to ask about this matter at all." ”

"The key is still the seventh phase, right?"

Zhang Cambodia sighed, "That's right, it's a matter of the seventh phase." ”

Li Zhen was silent for a moment and said, "What does Zhang Xiangguo think of Huan Yanfan?"

Zhang Khan was stunned, he stared at Li Zhen for a moment, and said slowly: "Is this what His Royal Highness King Xiang meant?"

His Royal Highness King Shouchun has approached me, and he wants me to recommend Huan Yanfan to you. ”

Li Zhen was very frank, and directly said the request of the Prime Minister Li Dan, how old and spicy Zhang Khan was, he immediately realized the deeper meaning of the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister actually wanted to win himself over, otherwise he should have suggested that Li Zhen go to Shangguan Wan'er.

Of course, Zhang Cambodia supports Li Tang, but he prefers Li Xian, the king of Luling, because Li Xian is the orthodox of the Tang Dynasty, he is a little embarrassed in his heart, before he has agreed to Li Xian's request, and recommended Zhang Shuo, the squire of the military department, to enter the phase, and now Li Zhen came to him on behalf of the prime minister, so how could he refuse.

After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Cambodia smiled bitterly and said: "Huan Yanfan is outstanding, knowledgeable, and indeed has the talent of a prime minister, but I think Zhang Shuo, the squire of the military department, is more suitable for the current phase, he was the long history of General Li, and General Li should know him better." ”

Li Zhen understood what Zhang Khan Zhi meant, he still had to support Li Xian, and he couldn't change his ways, in fact, Li Zhen also knew that it was difficult to convince these Xiangguo, and even his father-in-law Di Renjie couldn't convince him to support Li Dan, how could he change his mind. He didn't have much hope.

"Okay! I understand what Sangkook means, and I fully respect Sangkook's decision, so I won't force Sangkook. ”

Zhang Cambodia sent Li Zhen out of the official room apologetically, and hinted to him: "Actually, General Li can go to find Yao Xiangguo, I think he should accept the general's plan." ”

Li Zhen was also about to go to find Yao Chong, and he smiled: "Thank you Xiangguo for reminding me, I'll go to him." ”

He arched his hand, said goodbye and left, looking at Li Zhen walking away, Zhang Cambodia sighed slightly, although he fully supported Li Xian, but Li Xian was not in good health, could the saint pass the throne to him?

Half a month has passed, and the competition between all parties for the seventh phase country has become more and more intense, but the situation has become clearer, Zhang Shuo recommended by Zhang Cambodia and Zhang Shenwang recommended by the Zhang brothers have the upper hand, and both the government and the opposition say that the seventh phase country is surnamed Zhang anyway.

For Xiangwang Li Dan, although the Huan Yanfan he recommended was defeated, he also had a lot of gains, first of all, Li Zhen's support for him became more and more obvious, and secondly, Yao Chong finally made it clear that he would fully support the restoration of Xiangwang Li Dan.

In this way, Li Dan also has his own power in the political hall, even if he can't compete for the seventh, he is also satisfied.

In the study, Li Dan was discussing the next plan with his two sons, and the strategy of the third son Li Longji barely satisfied him, seriously injuring Wu Youning, cutting off the possibility of Wu Youning's ascension, and at the same time making Wu Sansi suffer heavy responsibility, so that Erzhang and Wu Sansi's plan to join forces to deal with Li Zhen was blocked, which greatly reduced Li Zhen's pressure, so that Li Zhen could run for him with all his strength and won Yao Chong's support.

It can be described as interlocking, but what makes Li Dan a little unhappy is that the third son is too vindictive, and he actually leads the disaster to Princess Taiping, which really makes Li Dan a little annoyed, which he didn't expect in advance, and the third son Longji didn't report to him.

Li Longji didn't expect his father to be angry, and hurriedly explained: "The children never had the idea of framing their aunt, and they didn't even do anything, they were thinking nonsense on their own. ”

Li Chengqi next to him also defended his brother, "Father, not killing Wu Youning was our common idea at that time, it was to save a little face for my aunt, and the only person left who exposed Wu Sansi was also in Shuangqiao Town, but we really didn't expect that Wu Youning's serious injury would be reminiscent of my aunt's doing, and we shouldn't blame San Lang for this matter." ”

Li Dan also understood the cause and effect in his heart, just because his son repeatedly emphasized that he couldn't kill Wu Youning at that time, he didn't think too deeply, but now it seems that his son seemed to have realized the consequences at that time, but he didn't say it.

Li Dan was angry about this, he didn't expect his son's scheming to be so deep, which made him shudder a little, the more he looked at Li Longji, the more he didn't like it, compared to the generosity of the eldest son, the third son Li Longji's city was too deep, and even his father and brother had to deceive.

Li Dan didn't mention this matter anymore, and he said to Li Chengqi again: "Li Zhen persuaded Yao Chong to support us instead, we should thank him well to express our hearts, what do you think we should say?"

"Father, the child feels that it will be useful to express gratitude with money and goods, but it is better to have time to talk to him in person, which shows the sincerity of the father. ”

Li Dan nodded, Chengqi made sense, it is true, money is enveloped, it is better to be emotionally enveloped, "You can arrange this matter! ”

"Rest assured father, the child will do everything right. ”

At this time, Li Longji said beside him: "Father, the child also wants to see General Li, please ask for father's permission!"

Li Dan remembered that Li Zhen had also taught his son to practice riding and archery, and when he got in touch with Li Zhen, he might be able to get more emotional, so he agreed, "Okay! Report anything to your father at any time, and you are not allowed to do it without permission." ”

"The child understands that he will never do things recklessly. ”

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and I only heard an old eunuch reporting outside the door: "Lord Wang, Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping has come down, saying that there is something urgent to see the prince." ”r1148
