Wang Duo looked at Li Ye Zhengse and said, "Your Highness is a smart person, so you must be able to understand the stakes here. To be the king and be safe, and live in the palace does not come out, so that people have no opportunity to take advantage of it, or they can protect themselves. If he is an official, he has stepped into the land of right and wrong, and he has given the opponent a chance. How to choose, His Highness can still think deeply. ”

Li Ye didn't think it through, he shook his head: "The prince's words are wrong. If you don't go out of the palace, you can stay away from right and wrong to protect yourself? Xing Guogong wants to deal with me, and some of the means are to frame me, which is a very good drama for those who fight for power and profit. Although the younger generation is young, they also know the truth of sailing against the current, and now the younger generation has entered the game, and if they don't advance, they will retreat - and if they retreat, they will die. ”

Li Ye looked at Wang Duo and said seriously: "So the answer of the juniors is that they must be outstanding." ”

Speaking of this, Li Ye paused, and he suddenly remembered something.

Speaking of which, Wang Duo is still Wei Baoheng's benefactor - when Wei Baoheng was a scholar and the first, Wang Duo was the chief examiner of the literary examination, and with this relationship, if Wang Duo wanted to be in the same stream with Wei Baoheng, it would be effortless.

However, now it is known to the government and the opposition that Wang Duo disdains Wei Baoheng's behavior, and hates the other party's behavior of playing with power and harming the society, so he has impeached Wei Baoheng in front of the emperor. It just doesn't work.

It is rumored that Wei Baoheng is very hostile to Wang Duo, and he once wrote to the emperor, wanting to transfer Wang Duo out of the feudal town and kick him out of Chang'an City.

——There are more than 300 states in the Tang Dynasty, and since the Anshi Rebellion, there are gradually more than 50 feudal towns, except for a very small number of prefectures directly under the imperial court, most of the prefectures and counties are under the jurisdiction of the feudal towns. The feudal town festival envoy opened the mansion and held the military and political power of the feudal town.

However, before the Huangchao Rebellion, except for the three towns in Hebei, the imperial court still had absolute control over most of the feudal towns, especially the personnel power was tightly held in the hands of the imperial court, and the envoys could be appointed and dismissed at will.

The first emperor Xuanzong worked hard to govern the Tang Dynasty, and the history is called "the rule of the great middle", so the authority of the current dynasty is acceptable.

It's just that the arrogance of the soldiers in the feudal towns has now become a common phenomenon, and it is not uncommon for some feudal generals to expel the envoys of the festival.

Thinking of these things, Li Ye instantly understood the intention of Wang Duo's previous words.

In a high position, Wang Duo certainly has political ambitions, as a loyal minister, his identity and position are determined, his political ambitions, first of all, to expel traitorous ministers, purge the court, and then Kuang to help the country and society, and leave a name in history.

If Wang Duo wants to deal with Wei Baoheng, he must also deal with Wei Baoheng.

In today's court, Wei Baoheng holds the authority and relies on the emperor's favor, which can be described as covering the sky with one hand.

Wei Baoheng is powerful, Wang Duo wants to deal with Wei Baoheng, of course, he has to strengthen his own power.

What Wang Duo said to Li Ye tried his best to exaggerate the risk of going out of office, and also exaggerated the safety of Li Ye's deep residence in the palace, in order to test Li Ye's heart.

It is a test, and naturally there is a reason and a purpose.

There are two reasons and one purpose.

Wang Duo's purpose in testing Li Ye was naturally to win over Li Ye and let Li Ye join his faction and strengthen his power.

Li Ye quickly figured out the first reason why Wang Duo tested him.

Wang Duo valued him, and this was a sufficient condition.

What does Wang Duo value about Li Ye?

First, it is cultivation. Now that Chang'an City is rumored, Li Ye is the one who got the Dao luck left by Yuan Tiangang, in other words, he is the successor of Yuan Tiangang, and this Dao Yun inheritance is very powerful, so that Li Ye quickly broke through the second layer of Qi training and became a clan handsome.

Second, talent. As soon as Li Ye returned from Taixuanding, he was able to thwart the conspiracy of Xing Guogong and Li Yao, and successfully inherited the title of King An, proving that his talent was extraordinary.

Third, identity. The title of prince is extraordinary, this is one of them, and the other is that Li Ye inherited the title of King An. Li Xian has been a martial artist all his life, and he has a reputation and prestige in the world, and if Li Ye inherits the mantle of King An, he will be able to inherit part of Li Xian's prestige.

The second reason is the necessary conditions.

Li Ye and Li Guanshu have now formed a mortal enmity, and they will continue to die in the future, it is conceivable that Li Guanshu's revenge on Li Ye will come extremely quickly and violently.

If Li Ye does not have firm confidence in the future, or does not have a full understanding of the difficult situation, once Wang Duo absorbs Li Ye into his own forces, but Li Ye is useless, he will be defeated by Li Guanshu in a blink of an eye, and what will hurt Wang Duo's majesty and wings is Wang Duo, then Wang Duo will lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot.

Wang Duo would not be so rash and stupid, so he tested Li Ye.

Thinking about this, Li Ye naturally knew how to answer Wang Duo.

Li Guanshu and Kang Chengxun do not have the ability to murder Li Xian, Wei Baoheng must have contributed, Li Ye is not only a mortal enemy with Wei Baoheng, Li Guanshu and others, but also must fight them.

Li Ye, who is lonely and has not yet come out, is still too weak, and if he wants to survive, he must take advantage of the situation.

Borrow the power of Wang Duo, borrow the strength of Wang Duo.

Therefore, Li Ye must join Wang Duo's faction.

Li Ye said: "Since Li Yao gathered a crowd to pretend to be Pang Xunyu and stormed the Anwang Mansion, the younger generation and Li Yao and Xing Guogong have been an endless situation. Xing Guogong wants the title of King An, this is not a secret in front of the princes in the court, and taking away people's money and power is tantamount to killing their parents, so Xing Guogong will not swallow his anger, and the younger generations will not stop there. ”

Wang Duo feigned surprise: "What else does Your Highness want?"

Li Ye said: "The younger generation has abolished Li Yao's cultivation!"

Wang Duo's pupils shrank, and this time he was really a little surprised: "Your Highness acts...... So decisive?"

Li Ye snorted coldly, stood up, and made a generous statement: "The younger generation has no way to retreat, not from the beginning! Not only the younger generation, in front of traitors and thieves, my Tang Dynasty has no way to retreat! Wei Baoheng has formed a party for personal gain, deceived his superiors and subordinates, and bent the law for bribes, and he is really a moth in the society! Kang Chengxun, Xing Guogong, and others are acting for the tiger, willing to be Wei Baoheng's minions, fighting for power and profit, and disregarding the society, these traitors and thieves have harmed my Tang Dynasty and delayed my Tang Dynasty, and they have done a lot of evil deeds, and it is difficult to write about them!"

"Look, the Tang Dynasty today, civil strife is endless, and there are many border troubles, which is the fault? Is it that the imperial court can't rule the world? In fact, it is a villain who has deceived the Holy Hearing and hindered the imperial court from ruling the world! For more than 10 years, if it had not been for the prince's conscientious and conscientious efforts to maintain it, the world would have been in great chaos! If Wei Baoheng and others were not eradicated, the government and the opposition would be restless, and the world would not be at peace!"

Wang Duo didn't expect Li Ye to suddenly be filled with righteous indignation, a little stunned, after listening to Li Ye's words, his eyes lit up: "Your Highness has such insight?" Thinking of Li Ye's last sentence, he quickly shook his head modestly: "A certain is just doing his duty, he can't help the society, it's already difficult to sleep, and he can't be praised by His Royal Highness." ”

Li Ye flicked his sleeves and continued: "The prince doesn't have to be modest, look at the world, besides the prince, who else can eradicate the traitors, assist Your Majesty, and give the Tang Dynasty a bright and prosperous life?

After saying that, Li Ye was furious and saluted Wang Duo: "Please help the younger generation!"

Wang Duo was very moved, and hurriedly got up to help Li Ye up, "His Royal Highness has great ambitions, which is really admirable, and Lao An Wang Quanxia knows it, so he must be very pleased...... It's just that Duke Wei is powerful, Duke Xing Guogong is ruthless, His Royal Highness must be in a difficult position, and His Highness is willing to take risks?"

Li Ye said loudly: "The younger generation is stupid, I just want to live up to the Tang Dynasty, the younger generation is ugly, but I also have a heart to die to the Tao." As long as you can sweep away the traitors, the younger generation will die without regrets!"

"This body does not live up to the Tang Dynasty, and this heart dies in the Tao! This is magnificent!" Wang Duo was greatly admired, and said in a loud voice, "Sure enough, it is a tiger father without a dog, His Royal Highness is sincere, and he must be the humerus of the society in the future, and his deeds will not lose to King Lao'an!"

He looked excited, as if he had been impressed by Li Ye.

But he didn't promise anything, let alone help Li Ye or anything like that.

Li Ye didn't mind, he hadn't thought about it, just by saying a few words, Wang Duo would completely recognize him and have a heart-to-heart relationship with him.

As long as you pass Wang Duo's test today, the road ahead will be much easier.

Besides, a person like Wang Duo, even if he made up his mind to help Li Ye, he would not easily promise before he was completely sure of the matter, in case the thing was not done, it would damage his own prestige.

.......

Bidding farewell to Wang Duo, Li Ye stood in the shadow in front of the door, looking at the carriage that the other party was driving away, silent, but there was no anger on his face, but it was calm and deep, like a deep pool.

After standing for a while, Li Ye returned to the hall and dragged Li Yan, who was still drinking at the banquet, to the east study.

After taking the sweat towel handed by the maid and wiping his face, Li Yan asked Li Ye suspiciously: "The banquet is not over yet, what are you pulling me here for?

Li Ye handed the decanting soup to Li Yan, sat down beside him, and said with a straight face: "I have something to discuss with you." ”

"What's the matter?" Li Yan took a sip of soup.

"It's a matter of life and death. Li Ye said.

"Do you want me to help you deal with Xing Guogong?" asked Li Yan.

"It's bigger than that. Li Ye said.

"No matter how big the character is, I can't deal with it!" Li Yan said weakly.

"No one can deal with it but you. Li Ye said.

"Who else is this kind of person?" Li Yan was interested.

"The Great Prince. Li Ye said.

"Are you going to deal with my eldest brother?" Li Yan was stunned.

"It's not me who wants to deal with him, it's you. Li Ye corrected.

"Why do I have to deal with big brother?" Li Yan was in a fog.

"Because you want to compete for the position of prince!" Li Ye was shocked.

"When did I ever have such a plan?" Li Yan was shocked.

"Right now. Li Ye said.

"Not at all!" Li Yan said.

"You don't want to be the crown prince?" asked Li Ye.

"I think what's the use?" Li Yan spread his hands.

"I can help you if you want. Li Ye said.

"The eldest brother is the best of all the princes, the eldest brother is extraordinary, the most of the princes, the eldest brother is deeply favored by His Majesty, and the most of the princes. Li Yan felt that Li Ye was crazy, "Because of this, I have never had the heart to fight with him, because there is no hope at all!"

"You're wrong. Li Ye said.

"What's wrong?" asked Li Yan.

"The cultivation is superb, the talent is outstanding, and he is deeply favored by His Majesty, and he cannot make the eldest prince a prince. Li Ye said.

"This can't be, what kind of talent?" Li Yan said strangely.

"The only condition for becoming a prince is to be favored by the eunuchs and the four nobles!"
