In a carriage, Du wanted to open his eyes.

"How long has the old man been asleep?"

"Alang, it's been a moment."

"The saint hasn't feasted yet?"

"Yes."

Du Hope was still sleepy, but he still got out of the carriage and walked towards the Calyx Tower again, looking up at the lights in the sky, his heart became more and more angry.

This all-night royal banquet, I don't know how much lamp oil to burn out for nothing? If it can be saved, how much food rations can be provided for the victims of the Hedong disaster?

But the saints had long since disobeyed the persuasion of their old ministers.

Including the war in the west, the same is true, begging the saint to stop forcing Wang Zhonghei to storm the stone castle city, but he can't stop the saint's heart of great joy at all.

I don't know how many people of insight dare to be angry but dare not speak.

Fortunately, the prince is wise, and the future of Datang will always be good......

Someone came out of the calyx building.

"Du Gong, the right minister wants to harm me!"

"Shut up."

Suddenly shouted, Du Hope looked over, and saw Xue Bai being escorted, and an official in a light green official robe was gagging him.

Du Hope didn't like this young man of unknown origin very much, because Xue Bai took refuge in Li Linfu, but he also understood the situation, full of anger, and in the end he could only blame the damn Liu Tao!

Thinking of Du Youlin's request not long ago, he still stepped forward and said, "What do you want to take people?" ”

Lu Xuan was not afraid of him, and said in a businesslike manner: "The lower officials act in accordance with the holy decree, and ask Du Gong not to be embarrassed." ”

Although Du Hope once dominated the northwest and shocked Tibet, now he is not reused by the saints, and he has no right to interfere with Lu Xuan, and asked, "What happened?" ”

Lu Xuan said: "Duke Du doesn't need to know. ”

After asking a few more questions, but there was no answer, Du Hope had no choice but to flick his sleeves and ask to see the saint, but he knew very well in his heart that the saint did not want to see him at all.

Lu Xuan turned his head to look at the purple official robe in the distance, and sneered, thinking to himself what about Du Hope's military exploits and the world's fame in the article? The power is far inferior to that of a lackey of his right-hand side.

was delayed like this for a while, and was about to leave again, but someone suddenly called behind him.

"Xue Langjun."

Lu Xuan looked back and saw that it was Zhang Yunrong, the palace lady beside Yang Guifei, who didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed deeply, and said with a smile: "Zhang Niangzi is in the Yuan Ankang." ”

"You dare to gag Xue Langjun's mouth? If he doesn't let go yet, the concubine will take him to see the saint. ”

Roh Hyun opened his mouth, but found that what he was about to say had been blocked.

He couldn't understand in his heart, the sage told him to interrogate Xue Bai, who dared to risk offending the sage to tell Yang Guifei?

~~

"Thank you, General Gao."

Upstairs in the calyx, seeing that Yang Yuhuan was blessed and thanked, Gao Lishi hurriedly bowed down and smiled, and said, "The concubine is so polite." ”

"My sister owes this little Xue Bai a lot of favors, and she should pay it back." Yang Yuhuan said: "In the blink of an eye, he can actually cause trouble again." ”

"yes, this kid is too troublesome. The concubine should repay the favor. ”

Yang Yuhuan looked very curious, and asked in a low voice, "Why is the saint suddenly annoyed with him?" ”

"The concubine doesn't have to pay attention to it, it's just someone chewing her tongue and saying something unclean."

Yang Yuhuan immediately understood, fortunately, since the person was rescued, it would be good to explain it later. If she didn't get it back, she wouldn't have anything to do if she got out of this Xingqing Palace.

Gao Lishi said: "In this way, the old slave will lead this kid to explain one or two to the sage." What does the concubine think? ”

"Then I'll have to ask General Togao again." Yang Yuhuan smiled: "I'll go talk to the third sister, lest she blame me again." ”

Colliers always had a kind smile on his face.

He walked down the Calyx Building and arrived at the corridor at the back, only to see Xue Bai standing there with Zhang Yunrong waiting.

"Thank you, General Gao, for saving your life."

"You should thank the concubine."

Gao Lishi raised his hand and asked Zhang Yunrong to go back, and without bringing other chamberlains, he walked towards Qinzheng Building with Xue Bai.

Nowhere was there, he opened his mouth in a very serious tone.

"Don't think that saints can be bullied, the old pawn killed people in Chang'an and hid in Yang Shenjin's house, you are all there. The sage asked Lu Xuan to judge him, how could he just be agitated by the right minister? Judging you is a matter of course, and what the concubine can help is just to give you a chance to explain to the saint in person. ”

General Xie Gao reminded. Xue Bai said: "I listened. ”

"How are you going to explain it?"

Xue Bai understood, and looked at the diligent government affairs building in front of him, and there was a figure standing at the door of the building waiting, it was Li Heng.

Although he had never seen Li Heng, he knew that it was Li Heng.

They are already immortal with each other, and if Lee Heng ascends the throne one day in the future, they will kill him. He didn't even need Li Heng to speak, Li Jingzhong would kill him.

"Donggong wants to kill me, but General Gao wants me to protect him?"

Hearing this blunt sentence, Gao Lishi stopped and said with a smile: "You are willing to recognize Xue Ling today, and you have sold me a favor." Would you like to sell me another favor? ”

"Okay."

"What do you want?"

Xue Bai responded neatly: "General Gao's words are enough." ”

"Then I owe Xue Langjun a favor."

"For the East Palace?" Xue Bai asked.

Colliers squinted and smiled, shook his head, and muttered a sigh.

"Isn't the eunuch a Tang Dynasty official who eats the king...... Let's go. ”

The two figures walked down the corridor together.

Gao Lishi is as his name suggests, tall and magnificent, Xue Bai still looks a little thin when he walks beside him now, if you ignore his calm temperament, it is easy to think that this is a child.

When they climbed the steps, they walked behind Li Heng.

Li Heng looked back.

Gao Lishi grabbed Xue Bai's shoulder and patted it lightly twice, as if to remind Li Heng - "Your Highness, this is the person who the old slave is protecting, please don't touch him." ”

Thinking back to the struggle in that big vat, these two taps made Xue Bai feel like a world away.

The three of them didn't say anything, just stood there waiting.

For a long time, perhaps the saint finally woke up after a short rest, Gao Lishi entered first, and then summoned Xue Bai.

"The saint summoned Xue Bai to see him, the prince, please wait."

Li Heng was still standing there.

He knew that the saint could only use Wang Zhonghei to make immortal achievements, and Wang Zhonghei had too deep a friendship with him, and if he had been smarter, he should have drawn a line with Wang Zhonghei a long time ago.

He refused to give up this little power in the northwest, so the saint would deliberately punish him as soon as something happened.

But how can the prince of a country not even have the last bit of self-protection? To put it mildly, if there is no Wang Zhonghei, once there is an accident, how can the prince control the situation?

The saints don't think about these things at all, they always think about themselves alone!

Faint!

The unfilial descendants of the Li family!

……

The secret scolding in his heart was very happy, but Li Heng knew that at this time, Xue Bai only needed one word to finish him.

Now, I can only trust Colliers.

~~

In the Qinzheng Building, the candle flame was re-lit in the main hall.

There were only Chen Xuanli and Gao Lishi around Li Longji, and Xue Bai stood in front of him.

"Now you're willing to tell me in person? Say. ”

"Back to the saint, you have to start with the Liu Tao case."

Xue Bai made a final consideration in an instant, as long as he told the truth, he could kill Li Heng and hundreds of people in the East Palace, but he himself would definitely die.

"Yang Shenjin loves the daughter of the Du family, and has been rejected several times, so he deliberately framed the East Palace......"

If he had a choice, he was not willing to frame Yang Shenjin.

But there was no choice in the court during the Tianbao period, Yang Shenjin served as a high-ranking official of the fourth grade, and he held important positions in finance and law, but he did not have the ability and means worthy of his identity, and he did not have the consciousness of conscientious officialdom, which is a crime.

Just like what he said to Li Linfu early on, they are all people who come to this power field to gamble their lives with people's fat and people's ointment, and they should be willing to gamble and lose.

"I found evidence in Liu Tao's house, but he snatched it away. He killed Liu Tao, and also acted in a heroic scene to save the beauty and rescue the Du family......"

Li Longji listened silently, knowing that Yang Shenjin was this kind of person.

The concubine Mingzhu, the maidservant Chuncao, and Guo Qianli said that the dead concubine Han Zhutuan is also stunning.

"At that time, Donggong refused to help me, and I was desperate, so I had to ask the right minister for help. The right minister then asked Ji Wen to investigate the matter, and Ji Wen summoned Du's family and daughter to ask about Liu Tao's case, suspecting that Yang Shenjin was secretly hiding the dead, and mobilized people to search overnight, but found nothing. But that night, someone killed the Jiwen family. And after I picked up the Du family's daughter, someone still killed Jiwen's house......"

"That night, they also assassinated Jiwen in the street, and I had seen a few dead soldiers, so I knew them, but I didn't know at the time that these people were related to Yang Shenjin. Yang Shenjin knew that I admired the daughter of the right minister, and told me at the beginning of January that he could recognize me as a son and help me marry a wife, but asked me to give him Fengwei Lou, and I agreed at that time. Until on the night of Shangyuan, I met those dead soldiers on the street, chased them all the way to Yang's house, realized that something was wrong, and did not dare to recognize him......"

Only Xue Bai was talking in the hall.

He also said that Yang Zhao was greedy for money, Yang Shenjin came to take concubines, and rumors in Chang'an City, etc., as evidence of these things.

Li Longji kept his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.

It wasn't until Xue Bai finished speaking, and was quiet for a while, that he spoke: "Also." ”

Xue thought about it for a while, and simply responded frankly: "There are still ...... I should be born as an official slave, and I want to get rid of the identity of unknown origin or lowly status, so I took the stir-fry and presented it to Mrs. Qiuguo and asked her to arrange an identity for me. Later, I made an agreement with Yang Shenjin, but I didn't expect Mrs. Yu Guo to really ask someone to do it. ”

"Sage." Gao Lishi said: "Xue Lingzhen lost a son, it is at this age, the old slave will not be wrong...... Please ask the saint to cure the old slave for the crime of bullying the king. ”

"I have also deceived the king, please ask the saint to punish the sin."

Li Longji finally opened his eyes and asked, "What time is it?" ”

"It's time." Gao Lishi whispered: "The right minister has been handling the case that has not been completed for more than two months, and the saint has asked clearly in less than an hour. ”

Xue Bai admitted this, but between this conversation, except for the part of the East Palace, he explained everything that could be explained, more than Li Linfu found out.

Li Longji obviously didn't believe it all, or didn't bother to check it, and deliberately asked Xue Bai to tell the most important secret to show his obedience and honesty.

He waved his hand and told Xue Bai to step down.

After that, he smiled bitterly and said to Gao Lishi: "The general has worked hard to arrange for the prince. ”

Changing to someone else, looking at Li Longji's burning eyes, he was so frightened that he couldn't resist it at this time.

Colliers knew him too well.

Over the years, the saint has long lost the mind of exploring government affairs, and often likes to deceive each other in this way, and can easily control everything by seeing through people's hearts.

And he is really as wise as a torch, whether his subordinates have something to hide, there is no need to check carefully, nine times out of ten he can be seen at a glance.

"The old slave is guilty, and the old slave did deliberately let Xue Bai explain it to the sage first. Because the old slave knew that the Longyou veteran bought by Yang Shenjin might have dealings with the prince, because he had always been soft-hearted and easy to be taken advantage of. However, the prince is filial piety, and he will not dare to have a conspiracy, and the old slave does not want the saint to be deceived by the right minister. ”

Li Longji looked at his eyes and sighed: "Then you just think that I am too cruel to the prince." ”

"Old slave...... That's what I thought. Colliers said from the bottom of his heart, "Please take the sage seriously." ”

"I don't blame you." Li Longji said, "It's been decades, how can you not know what you think?" If I hadn't believed you, I wouldn't have made him in the first place. ”

"Your Majesty, the crown prince grew up in the Ten Princes' Mansion, has been the prince of the country for less than ten years, and has never interacted with subordinate officials, how much foundation can he have? Who among the kings could be more subservient than him? Your Majesty is like the sun, why not be afraid of ......"

"Don't talk nonsense." Li Longji's mood finally recovered a little, and he smiled and talked to Gao Lishi, his tone changed and his face turned cold, and he said, "Call him in." ”

~~

Li Heng looked over and saw Xue Bai walking out of the Qinzheng Building.

Sincerity and sincerity immediately appeared on his face, and a smile of gratitude was carried out.

"Xue Bai, for the misunderstanding in the past, the East Palace will give you an explanation."

Xue Bai responded perfunctorily and politely, glanced around, and asked Li Jingzhong, "How do you get out?" ”

"Xue Langjun, please, the old slave will lead the way for Xue Langjun."

Li Jingzhong immediately bent down and leaned over, leading Xue Bai towards the Calyx Tower with a flattering face.

When there was no one in the corridor, Xue Bai asked, "Is Pei Mian still alive?" ”

"Xue Langjun rest assured, let him die of illness tonight."

"No need." Xue Bai said: "Let him come to see me, I have something to tell him to do." ”

Li Jingzhong was stunned for a moment, stopped, turned his head to look at Xue Bai, and didn't react for a while.

"Huh? Shall I explain it to you? ”

"No, you don't." Li Jingzhong hurriedly said: "Leave it to Xue Langjun's arrangement." ”

"It's okay to hear it." Xue Bai suddenly smiled magnanimously, "Li Linfu wants me to die, but I have handed over the human and physical evidence to the people you can't move, if I die, I will wait for you by the bridge." ”

"Yes, the old slave understands."

Li Jingzhong watched Xue Bai walk away, straightened up again, and muttered, "You are still so young, you really don't think about the future at all?" Heh......"

~~

There is only one hour left until dawn.

The royal banquet has not yet been held.

Li Linfu sat in the room and yawned several times in a row, knowing that the sage was personally handling Yang Shenjin's case, such a big case, I don't know how long it will take.

Lu Xuan didn't let him wait too long, and returned to the room.

"Right Phase."

"Killed?"

"This ...... No. ”

Lu Xuan was very embarrassed and hesitated again and again before he spoke about the details.

At the end, he also analyzed.

"Xia Guan originally wanted to wait for Xue Baimian Sheng to detain him later, but he listened to the inner servants...... I'm afraid that it will be difficult for us to sin and kill him in the future. ”

Li Linfu's face froze and fell into deep contemplation.

Lu Xuan waited for a while, but he didn't get an order, so he couldn't help asking: "Right Minister, although it is not possible to kill a crime, assassination ......"

"Get out."

Li Linfu waved his hand and blasted the waste out.

Xue Bai should still be killed, but he had to think about what the saint summoned Xue Bai alone tonight and asked? If the saint knew the identity of his Xue Pingzhao, the son of Xue Rust's outer chamber, and killed himself, he was afraid that he would lose his sacred heart.

But thinking about it, Xue Rust rebelled, and carried Princess Tangchang behind his back, and gave birth to an outer room with another woman, how could it be worthy of the saint's protection if he was killed?

The thought turned again, whether Xue Rust was rebelling or not, the saint was clear in his heart.

In the end, Li Linfu recruited the guards, and then invited the horse Yang Hui to come over.

~~

"What did the brother call you to do again?"

In the room, Li Niang yawned, and was relieved to see that it was Yang Wei who pushed the door in.

Then, she stepped forward and slammed her fist on her husband's chest and said, "I know I'm afraid of the haunted and go away." ”

"It's not a ghost, it's a human." Yang Xun said: "Brother Nu said, he didn't kill it." ”

"Why? The dignified prime minister, can't even kill an official slave? ”

"He is no longer an official slave, but now he is the great-grandson of Xue Rengui and the nephew of Xue Hui, and he also has a good relationship with the concubine and General Gao."

"Are you crazy?" Li Niang was annoyed and said: "The son of the enemy family ran to the mansion and couldn't die, why don't you get rid of it quickly?" Does it scare me to death if you keep it?! ”

"Am I crazy? These are all things that Gonu said. ”

"I don't care! Who doesn't know that the Sanshuren case was designed by us? Don't you forget that the title of Duke of Xue Rust Hedong County was also given to our son......"

"Brother Nu said that it must be investigated, find out where he has been hiding for the past ten years? Who can teach such a scheming person? ”

Li Niang said: "What do you mean? ”

"There must be a conspiracy." Yang Wei said: "Do you see what he did tonight, at a young age, if there is no one behind him, can he do it?" Behind this is our enemy. If you don't find out, can you rest assured? ”

"Civil officials do things mother-in-law mother-in-law, and the fighting has a false name!" Li Niang scolded and asked, "When is he going to find out?" ”

"He told us to check."

"What?"

"This matter involves the death of the queen mother of the year......"

After Concubine Wu Hui died, she was posthumously presented with the position of queen, known as "Queen Zhenshun", so Yang Wei and his wife were privately called their mothers.

At this time, Li Niang heard it, and finally felt that what Li Linfu said made a little sense.

She frowned, but said, "I just heard that Yang Shenjin had an accident, and you'd better live in peace recently." The matter ...... I asked my brother to do it, and the whole thing was done to help him, and he should do something about it. ”

"Him?" Yang Wei was a little disdainful, "Can he check?" ”

"Yes, you forgot about Brother's outer room? Someone who takes care of his business. ”

"Oh, her."

Yang Xun swallowed his saliva when he thought of the plump woman.

~~

At that time, it was almost dawn.

The calyx building hall was still brightly lit, and everyone was yawning and waiting for the saint to take care of state affairs.

Shouwang Li Xuan didn't dare to go to the room to rest, he always sat upright in his seat, feeling tired to the bone, and he couldn't wait to fall asleep.

Especially at this Shangyuan banquet, there was no singing and dancing, just sitting and waiting.

"What happened?"

The whispers of officials around me reached my ears.

"I heard that Yang Shenjin rebelled."

"With the prestige of a saint, how can anyone dare to rebel?"

"Yang Shenjin has always been arrogant, and when he sees Rong Contemporary, he rebels and wants to see Rong Contemporary."

"I only blame him for ruining this Shangyuan Night......"

When Li Xuan heard the word rebellion, his heart was slightly touched, and then there was only bitterness.

Inadvertently turning his head to glance, he saw Yang Yuhuan beckoning, and couldn't help but beat wildly in his heart, but when he looked again, she beckoned Xue Bai to the railing and discussed the words with Xu Hezi.

After that, Yang Yuyao, who clearly didn't understand the rhythm of music, also went over to laugh, and the three women were as delicate as flowers.

"Ugh."

Li Xuan turned his head and couldn't bear to look at it again.

Finally.

Seeing that there was movement in front of the Qinzheng Building, those imperial relatives and important ministers who had hid in the room to rest came back one after another, and Li Linfu's footsteps were still a little vain.

"Saint to!"

Li Longji returned to the banquet again, stayed up all night, and dealt with a major case of rebellion, but this son of heaven, who was over sixty years old, was in good spirits.

"Hahaha, Lao Zhongqing has been waiting for a long time, have a banquet, and listen to Yongxin sing another song......"

The atmosphere in the hall has long since disappeared.

Li Xuan endured a yawn, his spleen and stomach were uncomfortable for a while, and he thought to himself, I am afraid that he will walk in front of the saint in the future.

~~

In this reluctant atmosphere, Xue Bai was more interested.

He rarely had a moment to put the dirty power tricks in his mind behind him, calm down and listen carefully to Xu Hezi's singing, and feel the song of the Tang Dynasty.

Tonight, others were just waiting, but Xu Hezi happened to have a poem with Yang Yuhuan pondering through, and at this time, he first glanced back at the night of Chang'an, and then he sang loudly.

"The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and it blows down, and the stars are like rain......"

Xue Bai closed his eyes and thought back to this night, only then did he begin to reminisce about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Wait for Xu zygozi to sing the last sentence.

He opened his eyes and looked at the brightly lit Chang'an City, thinking to himself, even if many more years passed, he couldn't find himself when he suddenly looked back.

Today, I also changed more than 10,000 words, I know everyone is in a hurry, but please don't rush, always follow the rhythm step by step. I beg for a monthly pass, I beg for a subscription, thank you~
