Chapter Twenty-Four: The Cause of the Incident
Since the Tang Emperor's retreat, the Tang Dynasty has been invisibly divided into two, and the prince and the queen have started a secret game.
Although there is no big life and death, the expansion and contraction of each other's forces are all confrontations without seeing the light of the sword again and again, but the two sides were still restrained before, and they both had a line in their hearts, and they knew each other that no one would walk through that line casually.
Until Li Xiu went to Gusu City, Murong Yingjie set up a bureau to pacify most of Changlin, and most of the rivers and lakes were calmed down, and the prince's prestige reached its peak in one day, almost squeezing the queen and King Wu and others off the balance that had always been very stable.
Just when the officials were about to express themselves, there was news in the palace that the queen had opened the Locking Heaven Tower, and it was related to His Majesty's will.
From then on, it was clear to everyone that a new round of confrontation would begin again, and this time the line in the minds of both sides would undoubtedly become much blurred.
Then Li Xiu returned to Beijing, designed to kill Jiang Manquan, and forcibly suppressed the queen's faction in the general trend.
And then there is the current appearance, with the death of the national teacher, Cui Yasi tore his face, and the confrontation between the prince and the queen began to be filled with an obvious smell of gunpowder, and the most important thing is that the line that has always existed in the hearts of both sides has disappeared.
No matter how vague it was, there was always it.
There is a big difference between having and not having that.
These things are getting more and more intense, even the rivers and lakes that have nothing to do with the temples can see some clues, and many people are even more emotional in their hearts, the soldiers use flesh and blood to guard the border passes, but these officials are intriguing in the greenhouse, which is really boring.
A gust of wind can blow through Jincheng from Gusu City.
You can blow from the stele pavilion on the top of Wudang Mountain to the clear lake halfway up the mountain.
But there will always be a time when the wind will stop, and the wind of Datang cannot sweep across millions of miles of green sea to Huangzhou.
Regarding what happened in Datang, Li Xiu and Liang Xiaodao naturally didn't know.
The two lived in this marginal town for three days, and the scenery was good, but after the novelty was over, it was only good, not excellent, and much worse than Meiling.
For three days, the two of them did not leave the house, but they stood higher and looked farther, and the green sea outside the window was endless.
"Where are you going first?"
The shopkeeper delivered a few plates of food, and Liang Xiaodao casually took out a gold leaf from his arms and threw it over, closed the door and asked Li Xiu.
Li Xiu leaned against the window, watched the people coming and going on the street below, and said, "Wait for news." ”
Waiting for news is naturally waiting for Li Yinan's news.
Liang Xiaodao naturally knew this, and after hearing this, he pouted lightly and said: "It's still a heavenly strategy, with this efficiency, you can't catch up with the upper limit of grabbing villain books." ”
"I don't think we should have to wait long. ”
Li Xiu got up from the window edge and went to the chair, and looked down at the food on the table, although it was simple, it was full of color and flavor, and it was good.
Liang Xiaodao paused for a moment, and even the action of eating paused for a moment, and he was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Li Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked up at the door.
Liang Xiaodao turned around, and through the white paper on the door, he could vaguely see a person standing behind him.
That's what he meant.
The door was pushed open, and the shopkeeper walked in again, saluted the two respectfully, and said, "Heavenly strategy, Wang Shiyi, I have seen the two sons." ”
Outside the window, there was a constant stream of pedestrians, and the noise of the street could be faintly heard even from the third floor.
Li Xiu's face did not show any surprise, but seemed to have expected it.
Liang Xiaodao was slightly stunned, he had been eating, sleeping, sleeping and eating for the past three days, but he had never thought about it, but since he found out early in the morning, why did he say it today?
As if seeing his doubts, the shopkeeper smiled and explained: "The young master has instructed that he plans to let the two sons rest for three or five days first, and it is not too late to do anything after three or five days." ”
Liang Xiaodao snorted lightly, and then said: "That guy will play tricks, let me ask you, since you know that we are coming, why didn't Li Yinan come out to greet us in person?"
Wang Shiyi scratched his head, knowing that this was a joke between their brothers, so he didn't explain or speak.
"What did he bring?"
Li Xiu interrupted Liang Xiaodao's teasing and asked out loud.
Wang Shiyi sorted out his words and said, "The young master asked me to bring you two things, and a few words. ”
He took a few steps forward and walked in front of Li Xiu, then took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it over, and said at the same time: "The young master said that although Cong Xiaoxiao is a saint of the Holy Sect, her identity is relatively special, although there is a reason for doing that at the beginning, but the reason for that incident still exists, and the prince should be careful when he acts." ”
That incident naturally refers to the sword that passed through Xiao Nanqiao's chest, and acting cautiously is telling him to be careful with the Holy Sect, and at the same time, it is also a metaphor for Cong Xiaoxiao.
Li Xiu didn't speak, because he knew there was something to come.
Sure enough, I only heard Wang Shiyi open his mouth and continued: "Although this reason is within the Holy Sect, it has something to do with Yin Cao and Wanxiang City, if Gongzi wants to make a fuss from this sword trial conference, he still needs to plan carefully." ”
Li Xiu took the gray cloth bag and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Wang Shiyi nodded and said: "There is another sentence, the young master said that you are the smartest person in the world, and you must disdain to play any conspiracy in this matter, and he said that you want to become famous, and stepping on Wanxiang City to become famous is undoubtedly the fastest way, so if something happens, it is naturally best for you to solve it yourself, and if you can't solve it, Tianting will help solve it." ”
Li Xiu nodded in understanding.
Liang Xiaodao smiled and muttered, "This sounds like a human saying." ”
"Retire under the next. ”
Wang Shiyi bowed to the two of them again, then closed the door and slowly retreated.
"It's okay now, there is a heavenly strategy, although this barren state is big, aren't we going sideways?"
Liang Xiaodao leaned back in the chair, with a smile on his face, and said beautifully.
Li Xiu took the gray bag and glanced up at him.
The smile on Liang Xiaodao's face gradually disappeared, and he said softly: "I don't know, Li Yinan suddenly replied to Tiance, it must be because something happened, you and I are here, and he didn't come in person, so it proves that this matter is not small, so whether it is Wanxiang City, the Holy Sect, or Yin Cao, we have to solve it ourselves, and we can't involve him." ”
These things are very hidden, and there are even faint and almost invisible clues and signs.
But both knew it was true.
"I once sent the people in the building to Wuliang Temple to ask about the precepts, and I knew that there were some problems within Tiance, Li Yinan may not be the only young master, and his actions have been greatly restricted, if he provokes such behemoths as Wanxiang City and Yin Cao for him at this time, it will definitely make him more passive. ”
Li Xiu looked out the window and said.
It is precisely because of this that although the big tree of Tiance is extremely huge, it is a big tree that may hit its own people, so it can't be hugged.
