Chapter 233: Hot Potato
"Now that the horse Dongfang girl is also riding, I still have something to do, so I won't send the Dongfang girl."
Dongfang Yao didn't continue to be cheeky when he heard this, but said: "I lost this competition, and since I lost, I will naturally be punished." But we didn't say anything about the bet before, so let's do it, I should owe the second princess a request, the second princess will be useful to me in the future, as long as you open your mouth, as long as you don't violate the moral law, I can still do it, and I will definitely help you. How is it? ”
Ye Shuhua's face did not change, but she couldn't help but be happy in her heart.
She sent herself a request, and then she would not be polite then.
However, you have to think carefully about how to use this request to find out if she wants to kill herself, and what the purpose of killing herself is.
"Okay."
The second prince's daughter Liyi intended to murder Princess Qingya, so she should be beheaded, and the second prince was heartbroken.
The eldest prince has not taken any action so far, and the Liqi Cave is like watching the fire.
But it gave the eldest prince a surprise move.
Above the court, Li Zhen took a step forward and said in a loud voice: "Father, although Cousin Li Yi has committed a heinous crime and it is not a pity to die, she was deceived by a traitor in the end. She has royal blood in her body, and it is indeed unreasonable for the emperor to govern the country benevolently and directly in battle. ”
"Erchen has a way, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
The emperor was furious at this time, so angry that his heart and lungs were surging.
The second prince is his second brother, but his children have repeatedly committed the crime of great rebellion!
It is a matter of national fortune, he can't be sentenced lightly, and he can't have any selfishness, how can he not be angry!
At this time, hearing Li Zhen say this, the anger dropped a little.
"Oh, let's hear it."
Kneeling on the ground, the second prince was frightened at this time, and heard that Li Zhen actually came forward to intercede for himself.
I was at a loss at the moment.
The people who should stand up and plead for themselves did not stand up, but those who should not stand up did so.
He pondered secretly in his heart, and glanced at the third prince.
The third prince dodged his eyes and didn't dare to look at him.
He was also afraid of disaster to Yang Chi, and he promised the third brother that he would not let Li Yi die.
But he wasn't stupid enough to intercede for him in the main hall.
After being silent for a moment, Li Zhen said: "The second emperor uncle is old, if there is no heir by his side, it will be a little desolate, and the father can spare Li Yi from dying, but the second emperor uncle has since given up everything in the court, and went to Nadongzhou to be a local prince and enjoy his old age in peace." ”
Everyone in the court knows that the second prince does not have many forces in the court, but most of the military power in the south is in his hands.
If he is asked to give up everything, it is to make him give up the military power in the south and hand over the amulet.
The great prince and the third prince both wanted this talisman, but now just because of the rhetoric of Li Zhen, the talisman will fall back into the hands of the emperor.
With the military power in hand, the royal family of Li State has finally begun to move from decay to strength.
Moreover, the eldest prince and the third prince can't stop it, and they can't stop it, they can only watch.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair, and the anger in his heart had long disappeared without a trace.
He looked at Li Zheng steadily, and his face turned from red to as white as snow.
Then, he swept his gaze to the second prince who was kneeling on the ground, and asked in a low voice, "Are you willing!" ”
The second prince's heart was full of twists, and the words of the fourth brother echoed in his mind, he said that he wanted to save his daughter and help him kill Liji.
But when his daughter was beheaded by the emperor, he didn't move, and at that banquet, he said that he wanted to kill Li Zhen, but he didn't succeed.
What kind of virtue is his fourth brother, he actually knows since he was a child.
Ruthless and unscrupulous for his own interests, anyone and anything will become a victim of his interests.
If you don't fall victim, it's just because it's not the right time, or it's not your turn yet.
As long as it is his turn, even if it is the life of his own son, he will give it up!
However, the few of them have been together for more than ten years, and they have gotten along so harmoniously that he has forgotten and forgotten this ruthless younger brother.
He shouldn't go to him, and he shouldn't be gullible to him.
Above the main hall, it was silent.
The civil and military officials were silent, and their ears were erected very high, just waiting to hear the answer of the second prince.
The third prince is also anxiously waiting, and at the same time, he is extremely looking forward to it, he can refuse!
It's just a useless daughter, give it up, it's a tiger talisman of military power, you can't hand it over like this!
Even if you have to hand it over, you have to hand it over to yourself!
The eldest prince was even more surprised, he didn't expect Li Zhen to make such a request, and he didn't expect that he would openly put it forward, and the emperor agreed!
That's right, the emperor has no reason to disagree!
The reason why the royal family of the Li Kingdom declined and almost became a puppet was because the military power and the Chinese military officials were in the hands of him and the third and fourth elders!
Now there is a chance to regain military power, and the eldest brother will not disagree!
His eyelids were slightly raised, and his gaze slowly drew to the third and second princes.
Secretly prayed, he disagreed!
As long as he doesn't agree, then the military power can only belong to him or the fourth.
No matter how their brothers are reconciled, they can't fall back into the hands of the emperor!
The second prince was entangled and was silent for a while.
Knowing that everyone had waited for their hearts to raise their throats, he slowly raised his body, raised his head, and looked at the Supreme who was sitting on top of the Ninth Five-Year with a pair of cloudy eyes.
That is the eldest brother that their whole family hopes for, the eldest brother who leads their whole family to prosperity, and the eldest brother who finally makes them almost safe for the rest of their lives.
It had been a long time since he had taken a closer look at him.
Since he learned that the eldest brother had a thin heir and gave birth to Lishuo, he could no longer have an heir, and he and the second brother and the fourth brother began to be restless.
Five years ago, the court of Li was stirred up with a miasma, and in the end, the court was divided into half by the eldest brother and the fourth brother, and he asked and grasped the military power in the south.
Since then, the eldest brother has been ill, and he has been sick for five years, getting thinner and thinner, and his body is getting worse and worse.
was dazzled by the right to be carnate, so naturally he couldn't see the appearance of the eldest brother clearly.
After all, from reckless to emperor, who doesn't want to do such a dream?
He wants to do it, and the second and fourth brothers also want to do it.
But it seems that they have forgotten that there is no eldest brother who desperately goes into battle to kill the enemy, from a small soldier to a mighty general, leading hundreds of thousands of soldiers to fight in the east and west, making great achievements, and saving the corrupt Li royal family from danger.
After avoiding the division of the Li Kingdom between the Hua Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom, the Li Kingdom would have long ceased to exist, and he and the second and fourth brothers might not be still alive.
Without him to turn the tide and turn the decline of the Li country into a safe one, how could the Li country exist until now?
Without him winning the hearts of the people and the support of the court, he ascended to the supreme position, and he and his second brother and fourth brother were still untouchables, and they were still running around for a living.
Where will there be the eldest prince, the second prince and the third prince.
There will only be three lowly people who are silent.
The second prince retracted his gaze, and the memories of the past like watching the lights disappeared in an instant, like a building toppling, hidden in his heart.
He lowered his eyes, bowed his hand, and said, "Brother Chen, wish-will!" ”
Dongzhou is miserable, but in the end, he still has the position of the prince, Ahri is there, he takes Liyi to go there together, and he will live at ease.
What is the bitterness, they were a hundred times more bitter than this when they were young.
The emperor's body was obviously shocked, and he said that he was not in any mood now, but he felt that looking at the eyes of the fourth brother, he was more familiar than ever.
The fourth brother who followed him every day when he was a child, and the fourth brother who said that he wanted to be like him when he grew up, came back.
Li Zhen's expression did not change, he could agree that he didn't understand the real reason, but he knew that he would definitely agree.
Because, he didn't have a choice.
Standing beside him, Lishuo's heart was even more complicated, and at the same time, he also gave birth to admiration.
He has been planning to regain military power, but it has not had any effect in the past two years.
The soldiers he trained had been eradicated before they reached the inside of the southern military camp.
Later, he wanted to find out the handle of the main generals loyal to the second emperor's uncle, but he couldn't find it at all.
On the contrary, they have been warned many times.
But it only took him a few months, not to be precise, from his recovery to participate in the government, in less than a month, let the second emperor uncle obediently hand over the military power.
No wonder, no wonder his father was so partial to him.
"Okay, then I agreed to Ji'er's proposal and handed over the tiger talisman, so that Liyi could be exempted from all culpability, but the two princes' mansions were relocated to Dongzhou together, and they were not allowed to return to Liyang City for eternity, as a punishment!"
"Brother, the order!"
After going down, Li Zhen was just about to get on the sedan chair but was stopped by a person.
Looking back, it was Lishuo.
"After my father gets the Tiger Talisman, he will definitely give you the Tiger Talisman to one of me, I just want to know, do you want the Tiger Talisman?"
Li Zhen hooked his lips and smiled, his younger brother was direct.
It's a lot better than those twists and turns, not to mention just guessing.
"There is no one around me who is powerless, and the foundation is unstable, what are you doing with this hot potato? It's not enough to be tired. ”
After saying that, he got into the sedan chair.
