Chapter 353: Interception and Killing (19) Fifth Shift
"This kid is really blessed with a great fate, so he can't stop him. β
After leaving Guangyuan, the third prince and the eldest grandson Xuanji were not in a hurry to go back to Tai'an, so they left Shu all the way.
The secret letter sent by the father and the emperor only wrote that he would try his best to kill Mu Sanqian outside Xihe Prefecture, and the implication was that Tai'an City also knew that this matter was not completely grasped, and the three princes did not care if they failed to handle this errand, even if Mu Sanqian was put back to Xihe Prefecture, at most it would only allow Xihe Prefecture to last a few more years.
"Lan Yuanting is the most prestigious strategist in the Old Tang Dynasty, with him plotting behind his back, it is naturally not easy to intercept and kill Mu Sanqian. β
The eldest grandson Xuanji sat on horseback and closed his eyes to recuperate, and there had been no news from Tai'an City for many days, which made him faintly uneasy.
"Is that Lan Yuanting who has entered the top five on the strategist list?"
The list of strategists is rarely mentioned now, compared with the second most important civil and military list in the world, the list of strategists has been swept into the garbage heap in recent years. But when the old Tang Qiyuan was replaced, the list of strategists should be talked about.
"If it weren't for Lan Yuanting's willingness to follow Andu Mountain for decades, with his talent and learning, he would be able to enter the top three on the list of strategists, and living in Xihe Prefecture would be a bit of a dragon trapped in the shallows for him, after all, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, no matter how powerful the iron horse of Andu Mountain is, but Xihe Prefecture is too small after all. β
The eldest grandson Xuanji recognized Lan Yuanting a few times, but it was a pity that he followed a reckless man in the mountains, not to mention the general trend of the world, and it was even more completely chilling to take the Xihe Prefecture to return to the northern frontier, otherwise Andu Mountain would not have been cursed by countless scribes of Qiyuan to this day.
"Your Highness, you must always remember that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, there is the old Tang Dynasty as a reference, and the current Andu Mountain is an exampleββ"
"Be cautious in words and deeds, be generous to others, and be more sympathetic to the people. β
These teachings have to be taken out from time to time to talk about it, and the ears of the three princes are calloused.
"I can recite my dream words, grandpa, don't worry, I'll remember it." β
"You. β
was interrupted by the third prince, the eldest grandson Xuanji was not angry, Li Yu was much younger than the prince, and occasionally a little stubborn, but in addition, whether it was temperament or others, it was better than the prince, not to mention that Li Yu was cultivated by the eldest grandson Xuanji himself.
On the wilderness ancient road, the two of them talked and laughed, until they were about to cross a mountain canyon, but the fast horse under the seat of the eldest grandson Xuanji suddenly stopped in place and neighed uneasily, and the front hooves swayed back and forth on the ground.
The eldest grandson Xuanji hurriedly tightened the reins, reached out on the horse's back, and gently stroked the horse to calm the horse down.
"What's wrong?"
The third prince followed behind, and when he saw the strange situation, he also stopped.
"Look ahead. β
An ancient road in the wilderness connects to Qiyuan in Shu, and no one would have imagined that there would be people waiting here, and the eldest grandson Xuanji also relaxed his vigilance, until he was frightened and noticed a person standing in front of the entrance of the canyon.
The third prince looked over and saw a person wearing a black robe and a hat standing at the entrance of the canyon, because his two fast horses were a little restless and manic.
"Who is Your Excellency, and why are you standing in my way?"
The third prince and the eldest grandson Xuanji glanced at each other, and then the eldest grandson Xuanji asked loudly.
"The old slave has seen the three princes and the eldest grandson. β
The man standing alone in front of the entrance of the canyon was still wearing a hat, but he clenched his fists and bowed down to directly tell the identities of the two.
"You'reβ"
The third prince is often in the palace, and he is very familiar with that voice, but he has never seen that person leave his father half a step since he was a child, and no matter how he thinks about it, he can't think that it is that person.
"The old slave Huang Sanshi has seen the three princes and the eldest grandson. β
The man dressed in black took off the hat on his head at this time, who was the sable temple who lived deep in the palace?
"Stingray Temple?"
Seeing the identity of the person who came, the eldest grandson Xuanji didn't know why, even his palms began to sweat.
"Sable Temple doesn't serve his father in the palace, why did he appear here?"
For the three princes of the Sable Temple who suddenly appeared here, they didn't think about the reason at all, but they were afraid that something would happen to him, so they sent the Sable Temple to come.
"Although I couldn't stop Mu Sanqian, no one could hurt me with my grandfather here. β
"Your Highness!"
The eldest grandson Xuanji is not as easy to trust others as the third prince, not to mention the number one master in Tai'an City, Huang Sanshi Sable Temple, who came here alone.
"What are you doing here, Sable?"
The eldest grandson Xuanji asked again.
"The old slave is here to tell the two of you that you don't have to go back to Tai'an City. β
Sable Temple was still respectful when he spoke, but when he heard these words in his ears, the eldest grandson Xuanji was like a man's back.
"You don't have to go back to Tai'an City? What does that mean?"
The third prince finally realized that something was wrong.
"Didn't Father-in-law Huang let the prince buy it?"
"The old slave will not be bought by anyone, the old slave is just acting on orders, and I hope His Royal Highness and the eldest grandson can understand. β
"On orders, by whom?!"
The sable temple serves the three generations of the Li family, the ancestors and grandchildren are loyal to the Li family, and they have served by Li Xian's side for many years and won Li Xian's trust.
"Is that what the Emperor meant?"
The eldest grandson Xuanji couldn't believe it, although they all said that the heavenly family had no relatives, but there was also a saying that tiger poison does not eat children!
"Lord Eldest Sun, don't ask knowingly. β
The sable temple stands alone at the entrance of the canyon, the body is rickety and the white hair is pale, as if he will fall down at any time, it is completely the appearance of a dying person who is about to rot wood, but whether it is the third prince or the eldest grandson Xuanji, he does not dare to make any moves in the face of the sable temple, there are too many people who have died in the hands of the sable temple in the past few decades, and the reputation of the first master of the sable temple Tai'an City is piled up with the lives of the cultivators of the rivers and lakes.
"Whyβwhyβ"
If the third prince is struck by lightning, things come too suddenly, and he will be ordered by his father to be intercepted and killed?
Why, exactly? If it was because he was taking the crown prince's throne, why didn't he stop him when he was running the courtiers, why didn't he stop him when he was cultivating his wings on a large scale?
"The old slave shouldn't have said much, but Your Majesty wants to put Qiyuan in the hands of a clean person, not a puppet who is controlled by others, Lord Eldest Sun, you should know this. β
"Li Xian! Back then, you relied on the strength of my eldest grandson's family to ascend to the throne! I didn't expect you to be such an ungrateful person!"
When the eldest grandson Xuanji married his daughter to Li Xian, he took a fancy to his decisiveness, his rationality, and his unscrupulous means to succeed, but all of these, decades later, were all avenged on him.
How can he not hate?
"Yes, yes!"
The eldest grandson Xuanji laughed angrily, it seems that Li Xian has this plan not for a day or two, he has no intention of calculating, he is defeated, it is his eldest grandson Xuanji who is defeated.
"After all, Li Yu is His Majesty's biological flesh and blood, if Huang Gonggong can let Yu'er go, the old man is willing to cut himself off, and he will not do it!"
The third prince was shocked at this time, only to feel that his head was empty and he couldn't think of anything, the eldest grandson Xuanji looked at Li Yu who was stunned on the side, and asked Huang Sanshi if he could let him live.
"Lord Eldest Sun, do you think that after doing this, the old slave will be able to go back alive?"
Huang Sanshi, who was already old, stood at the mouth of the canyon for a long time, and couldn't help coughing violently.
Your Majesty will not hesitate to kill his own flesh and blood for the sake of the people of the world, and how much money can his old life be worth?
