In Chang'an City, the government and the opposition have settled down, and the Empress Wu and the emperor are ready to relax and patrol the divine capital Luoyang!

Luoyang is named because it is located in the sun of the Luohe River, is the birthplace and birthplace of the Chinese nation, and has the reputation of the thousand-year-old imperial capital and the peony flower city. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Emperor Yu, Tang Yao, Yu Shun and Xia Yu These legendary emperors have left countless myths here, and the myths of ancient Chinese Emperor Yu, Tang Yao, Yu Shun, Xia Yu and so on are mostly spread here.

Emperor Yu was the capital of Boyi, Xia Taikang moved the capital to the city, Shang Tang set the capital to Xi'an, King Wu cut down the city, and 800 princes would meet Mengjin, and the Duke of Zhou was auxiliary and moved Jiuding to Luoyi. King Ping moved eastward, Gaozu Duluo, Guangwu Zhongxing, Wei and Jin Xiangchan, Xiaowen reformed, and countless Ming monarchs and holy ancestors appeared here. Since ancient times, Luoyang has been regarded as "in the middle of the world", and King Wu of Zhou has "moved his house to Chengzhou and China"; after the Han and Wei dynasties, Luoyang "paid tribute from all directions, and the road was even", and it had a history that was enough to shine for thousands of years.

Similarly, Luoyang is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization, "the river out of the map, Luo out of the book", the four major inventions of the compass, papermaking, printing were born here, since ancient times there is "the world" and "ten provinces thoroughfare" reputation.

In Datang, Luoyang is also the second political center of Datang, and it is no less prosperous than Chang'an City. Gaozong has gone to patrol Luoyang more than once. As soon as Gaozong left, the government could not be delayed, and at this time, the person in charge would become the prince, and even Li Zhi deliberately left Chang'an in order to test the talent of the crown prince Li Hong, and let the prince supervise the country. Now the crown prince is only twenty years old, but he has already had the experience of being imprisoned four times. After leaving the prince in charge of the country, the cultural relics and the palace maids and eunuchs all went straight to Luoyang with the emperor and queen.

After dealing with the day's government affairs, the crown prince Li Hong actually came to Hanyezhuang in a hurry. Han Tongwen's master and apprentice are practicing, Qiao Song and the little wolf are nothing, the key is that Kong Zhao is the most difficult to serve, not a good-looking martial arts not to practice, Han Tongwen racked his brains to think of a martial art with softness and rigidity, rigidity and softness, and fell into the hands of Ying.

Luoyingzhang is a martial art realized from the swordsmanship, the palm is sharp, the moves are cumbersome, and the use of it is really like the wind in the peach blossom forest, and the flowers are as beautiful as a hundred flowers. Kong Zhao fell in love with this martial art at a glance, and Han Tongwen naturally taught it, it is rare to have an apprentice who has artistic cells and needs to be cultivated well. Knowing that the prince was coming, Han Tongwen and Ji Ruopu went out to greet each other, and the three of them came to the pavilion in the courtyard side by side, as for Qin Zisang, as long as there is nothing to do, he will go fishing without moving, Ye Liu went to visit the Qinglou, saying that it was to relieve the recent boredom.

"How are you doing today?" Li Hong said casually.

"Same as yesterday"

"And how were you yesterday?"

"Same as the day before yesterday"

"I don't ask you, I haven't been in shape for a day, and I haven't said anything serious," Li Hong said

"If you have anything to say, just say it, it's so boring to go around" Han Tongwen knew that the prince had a good temper, so he dared to joke.

"Is there something going on in the court?" asked Ji Ruopu

"There's nothing in the court, but I think the relationship between me and my mother seems to be a little different, I want to find someone to talk to, but you know, you can't talk to others about such things, and there is no suitable person to think about it, so I came."

"Talking about the emperor in vain, this is a big crime" Han Tongwen shook his head.

"I just want you to talk about my mother, in private. Li Hong is kind and persuasive.

"Then I can't say anything, if anyone dares to talk about my mother, I will kill him, and I won't talk about others behind my back," Han Tongwen said

"You have so much nonsense there, let you say it, I haven't seen you so high-minded and bright in ordinary gossip," Ji Ruopu said.

Han Tongwen slapped the table, "As for your mother, Empress Wu is really a powerful woman, prince, it's not that I underestimate you, you are really far worse than your mother"

Li Hong didn't mind him saying this, Han Tongwen's macro view of the overall situation is very good, and Ji Ruopu is discerning, looking at big things in small things, Li Hong is thinking, if he can get the help of these two people, it will be a great help for him.

"It's better to talk about it in detail"

"It's too early to say, but you also need to take precautions, if your mother continues to win over the courtiers and install cronies, I'm afraid that even if you ascend the throne, you will be a puppet, it is better to give her some hints now, let her restrain herself. Han Tongwen said.

"To be honest, before I met Empress Wu, I knew that this was an extremely smart person just from her rumors, and Empress Wu was a person with a strong desire for power, and he was ruthless, you should know the fate of your uncles, you should have heard of the fate of Queen Wang at the beginning, and it is difficult to say whether she will treat her own son like that in the future. The current Yingguo Mansion is completely your mother's right-hand man, I heard Master Pei say that the Empress Wu also wants to transfer Xu Jingzong to Fengtai, the Guogong Mansion, the Prime Minister, and the Yulin Army, and now the Empress Wu is relying on the power in her hands to install cronies everywhere, because last time your eldest brother Li Zhong almost overturned her, which made her afraid"

"It's not that I said, I didn't think about it before, but now I feel more and more that your father is..."

"Hmph, hmph!" Ji Ruopu snorted twice.

Han Tongwen also realized that he had lost his words, "It's a saint with a good name."

"Do you think so?" Li Hong gave her a strange look.

"Aren't you" Han Tongwen smiled at Li Hong and said bad things about his father.

"I'm very interested in what you said about planning ahead, you can say anything."

"If you want to say that, I'll really talk about your father, Your Majesty doesn't know, he is setting up the next Empress Lu. ”

"Do you think so too?" Li Hong asked Ji Ruopu.

Ji Ruopu nodded, "Your Majesty's health is not good, and it is a bit inappropriate to hand over power to Empress Wu." His Majesty wants to take back his rights when his health improves, but if the Empress Wu is full-fledged..."

"So you think I should take a stand in advance?"

"Since you are the crown prince, you can't be submissive, Your Majesty indulges the martial queen, if you let it develop because of the love between mother and son, it will be you who will be embarrassed in the end," Ji Ruopu said.

"The Prince's East Palace is a great force in the court, although it has not been brought to the fore now, it is no worse than the Empress Wu in His Majesty's heart, and even heavier, after all, you are the future prince. You may be able to give His Majesty some alert and a wake-up call to Empress Wu, my words have come to an end, and you can ask Ruopu for the rest, I'm going to practice."

Han Tongwen's words were not completely explained, among the four sons of Li Zhi and Empress Wu, only Li Hong was the most suitable for being the emperor, so he was valued by Li Zhi. Li Hong is indeed generous and does not have any princely shelf, so Han Tongwen is willing to tell him this, but saying these does not mean that Han Tongwen will be attached to him.

"He's this...."Li Hong was a little puzzled by Han Tongwen's attitude.

"Don't worry about him, that's his temper," Ji Ruopu said with a smile.

"Cough cough cough" Li Hong coughed, Li Hong's health is not very good, he has been taking medicine for so many years, and he has never seen any better, and Li Hong said after his body eased up a little

"It also takes some timing and means to take a stand, and if you really stand on the opposite side of my mother, I'm afraid it's not good."

"That's true, although there are many opportunities, but if you have a clear sword and a gun, I'm afraid it will cause the Empress Wu to suppress your Prince's East Palace, I have selected some from it, not light or heavy, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can try!"

"Tell me about it"

"The queen was abolished, I saw the records of the previous dynasty, the queen has two daughters, Princess Xiangcheng and Princess Yicheng, who were imprisoned in the court liquid bureau, think about it if you count it should be twenty years old, the two princesses are innocent, the prince is occasionally interested, visiting the palace, inadvertently walked to the court liquid bureau, saw the two sisters pitiful, wrote to Your Majesty, asking Your Majesty to marry the two princesses, it can be regarded as giving them a home, after all, they are all Your Majesty's children, according to Your Majesty's character, you will definitely agree. ”

Li Hong thought about it, this is indeed a clever move, Queen Wang and Empress Wu were once opposed, Princess Xiangcheng Princess Yicheng was implicated and imprisoned for more than ten years, if he did this, it was equivalent to expressing his meaning vaguely, and at the same time, it would not touch the nerves of Empress Wu too much.

"Two months ago, Shangguan Yi and the abolished prince Li Zhong were beheaded for public display, the prince cared about brotherhood and collected Li Zhong's body for burial, how could such a thing not be known to the courtiers"

"Collect the body for Li Zhong? This palace didn't do this," Li Hong finished speaking, and his eyes lit up, "Seconds, seconds"

Li Zhong was also opposed to the queen, coveted the position of the crown prince, and was beheaded and then violently carried, but then he was quietly buried by someone. If Li Hong puts this matter on himself, he can not only hint at the Empress Wu and the emperor, marry the princess and collect Li Zhong's bones, but also win a benevolent and virtuous reputation in the court, and serving a benevolent monarch is something that the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty cannot refuse, so that his position is even more unbreakable, killing three birds with one stone!

After Li Hong left, he set out to do what Ji Ruopu suggested he to do, while Han Tongwen returned to the pavilion.

"Why are you dodging," Ji Ruopu asked.

"Are you going to bet on the crown prince?" Han Tongwen asked rhetorically.

"The crown prince is a corporal, and he is kind-hearted, and he will be a wise man in the future"

"But you ignore the prince's body, old illnesses, have you ever thought that if the prince dies first, you, the person who gave advice, will become the target of the martial queen's attack" Han Tongwen said, "Leave a line in everything, and there will be a way to get out in the future"

"Your Majesty's body can't last for two years, I will also return to Qingya Academy after the crown prince ascends the throne, I still like to be a teacher, and I don't think there is anyone else worthy of my service except Li Hong"

"You have said so, I can only reserve my opinion, you are gambling, betting that the prince will live a long life, this is no different from putting hope in the crotch of God's pants"

"Aren't you going to do something? You must know that it is easy for Mr. Li to hand over the position of mountain chief to you, and the old gentleman with seniority in the academy will not object, but if you want to get the approval of other Wenzong and the court, if you don't do something big, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"The timing, I never wait for what I think is the most appropriate moment. ”

"Why don't you create your own timing," Ji Ruopu asked

"Ruopu, being smart can't solve all problems, I'm still ready to wait"
