Chapter 70: Li Longji, the King of the County
In the middle of the night, the law of the Tang Dynasty stipulates that the city gate will be closed at night, and the non-military intelligence pond shall not be opened, in fact, this kind of regulation is useless in Laizhou, which is located on the coast, far away from the nomadic tribes.
Naturally, there is no side provocation, so the officers and soldiers guarding the gate do not take this rule very seriously, although the city gate should be closed, but in fact, the rich businessmen and gentry in the city need to open the door for something, as long as they spend a little silver, it is still very convenient to open the city gate, Laizhou is a small place, everyone looks down and does not look up, what can you do if you don't open the door quickly?
Is it really impossible for the officials and gentry to sleep in the wilderness at night? The captain guarding the door was in a good mood tonight.
Zhengxiang, who was sleeping just now, was called up by his subordinates, it turned out that Sha Tonghai had something to go out of the city, and he was angry, but Sha Tonghai calmed his anger with five silver ingots.
Sha Tonghai went out of the city with dozens of elite men. But the captain couldn't sleep, and wondered how to divide the money. The more I thought about it, the happier I became, and I was so excited.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, dozens of horsemen galloped up, and the captain shouted: "Don't you know the laws of the Tang Dynasty!" A man jumped off the horse, came to the captain, and said in a low voice: "This military master, my lord has an urgent matter at home, and I hope that the military master will make it convenient." As he spoke, he shoved the heavy stuff into his hands.
The lieutenant looked down at the thick gold bar in his hand, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to open the door.
Out of Laizhou City, Li Longji, the king of Linzi, was riding his horse and galloping, when suddenly a group of people flashed out of the dark in front of him, and the guards around him shouted in a low voice: "Everyone be careful." The sound of the blade unsheathed rang out.
Someone on the opposite side shouted: "His Royal Highness the King of Linzi, come to escort him in Xiasha Tonghai!" Li Longji stepped forward and saw that it was Sha Tonghai who was kneeling on the ground, and scolded with a smile, "Lao Sha, why are you running here without sleeping at home?"
Sha Tonghai said: "Your Highness has something, the villain is willing to escort him, and he will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire!"
Li Longji's eyes became fierce in an instant, staring at Sha Tonghai, trampling the horses back and forth under his crotch, and the dust and grass clippings that he stepped on flew down on Sha Tonghai's head, making him sweat all over.
Li Longji stared at it for a long time, and then suddenly burst out laughing: "Lao Sha, you really understand people! This king has appointed you as the Sima Lieutenant of the Linzi Palace, and you will stay in Laizhou to wait for the dispatch!" Someone threw an ivory waist card from the Linzi Palace's Mansion in front of him.
Sha Tonghai said in fear: "Your Highness, won't you take me away?" Li Longji said: "Lao Sha, it seems that this idea was not thought of by you, otherwise you would not have this question." ”
Sha Tonghai replied honestly: "It was said by Zhong Xian, the staff member next to the villain." ”
Li Longji whipped lightly on the horse's back, and the horse immediately galloped out, and the guards followed closely behind. Li Longji's singing voice came from afar in the night: "Zhong Xian has a genius, you don't have to bear him!"
In the early morning of the next day, Sha Tonghai, who had not slept all night, took people back to Laizhou City, Zhong Xian just got up to wash, and when he saw Sha Tonghai, he was stunned and then stroked his palms and laughed.
Sha Tonghai said angrily: "You laughed a fart, so that Lao Tzu didn't sleep all night, and His Royal Highness didn't want to take me there at all." ”
Zhong Xian smiled: "Dong Weng, this is a good thing!" Sha Tonghai glared and said angrily: "Good thing, why don't you go to the wilderness for a night to try?" Zhong Xian said: "Dong Weng is angry, yesterday's incident, in fact, the students did not explain it thoroughly, Dong Weng must have two results, one is that His Royal Highness takes Dong Weng to Chang'an together, if he goes to Chang'an together, it means that the King of Linzi just treats Dong Weng as an ordinary subordinate, although he is loyal but not useful; Therefore, you can stay in Laizhou because the king of Linzi loves Dong Weng, and the students know that Dong Weng is straightforward and cheerful by nature, so he deliberately kept these words and did not say them.
Sha Tonghai said: "I originally wanted to follow him to Chang'an to work hard for a new world, but what can he do if he leaves me here?" Zhong Xian said: "Since His Royal Highness regards you as a confidant, it is naturally of great use to keep you in Laizhou, if it is peaceful today, even if there is a change of power, it will not be a big movement, but a difficulty between the armpits and elbows, so Your Highness left you in Laizhou, hoping that you can secretly accumulate strength, do you want you to spend time here and wait for death?"
These words are really polite, but the habits of the people in the Shatong Haijiang Lake are not careful. It's just a strange way: "Is he the king of Linzi without soldiers and horses in his hands, and does he still have to be our Jianghu people to come forward to do the work?"
Zhong Xian said: "Although he is the prince, he can't move a soldier without a holy decree, so he must have his own strength." Your Highness has entrusted this matter to you, which shows that he attaches great importance to Dong Weng. ”
Sha Tonghai then understood, and said with a pause: "Oh, this Highness is really, he almost delayed a big event! Why didn't you explain such an important matter to me?" Zhong Xian unfolded the paper fan, shook it gently, and said with a smile: "Because Your Highness knows that you have me by your side!"
Zhong Xian's expectation was good, Chang'an really had a big incident, and there was more than one, it was three major events.
At the beginning of the month, Emperor Zhongzong ordered Wu Songxun to marry Princess Anle, and Wu Sansi became a relative of the emperor, and everyone in the world was dumbfounded; Later, Emperor Zhongzong personally wrote an edict to entitle Zhang Khan Zhi as the king of Hanyang County, Jinghui as the king of Pingyang County, Huan Yanfan as the king of Fuyang County, Cui Xuanwei as the king of Boling County, and Yuan Shuji as the king of Nanyang County. Seeing that the phase was vacant, Yu Shi Zhou took advantage of it, Ran Zuyong, Guanglu Cheng Song Zhixun, and the servant Li Jun. Yao Shao, the superintendent of the imperial history, played together and asked the emperor to appoint Wu Sansi as the prime minister, and Zhongzong immediately allowed it.
Wu Sansi had been waiting outside the gate for a long time, and immediately entered the court to worship and thank him. On the contrary, the power was more prosperous in the time of Wu Zhou. By the time Li Longji traveled thousands of miles back to Chang'an, the dust had already settled. Princess's Mansion.
Princess Taiping sat at the table, looking at the bright candles and lights on the bookcase, and sighed faintly. Xue Chongjian and Li Longji stood beside him.
Half a day. Princess Taiping said: "Aman, what do you think of this matter?" Li Longji said: "Auntie, Wu Sansi is narrow-minded and will be revenged, if he is the prime minister, I am afraid that the five people of this Cambodia will die soon." ”
Princess Taiping sneered: "Zhang Cambodia's gang, I have long hinted at him to get rid of Wu Sansi as soon as possible, but they are actually arrogant, saying that Wu Sansi has long been a dry bone in the grave, and it is rotten as much as possible, it is really a villain's popularity, it is difficult to be a big use, they are not properly dispatched, and it is not a pity to die." I'm just sorry for my honest and honest brother, who will be in the hands of Webster and Wu Sansi in the future. ”
Li Longji said: "Auntie, it's better to take advantage of their unstable foothold, let's ......" Princess Taiping shook her head and said: "It's not proper, it's not proper, don't forget that there is also a Wei Wang, does Aman want to make wedding dresses for others?"
Xue Chongjian said: "Now the government and the opposition think that King Wei is the candidate for the crown prince of the East Palace, I am afraid that King Wei himself also thinks so, Wu Sansi and Wei Shi are in collusion, and they will definitely support Li Chongmao, the king of Wen, as the crown prince, if at that time, King Wei himself will come out, we just need to secretly assist King Wei." Li Longji said: " Aunt, I don't think so, if Wei himself decides, maybe he supports Li Chongmao, but with Wu Sansi by his side to give advice, it is not necessarily, because this move will inevitably force Li Chongjun to turn against them in advance, although this Wu Sansi people are dirty, but they are good at power tricks, they will definitely not make this decision, on the contrary, Wu Sansi will also suggest that the emperor will edict Li Chongjun as the crown prince, so that Li Chongjun can be stabilized, no matter how others fight in the future, Li Chongjun will be a wall-to-wall watch, peace of mind as his prince, and wait for Wu Sansi and Wei's power to tilt into the opposition, and then find an opportunity to abolish Li Chongjun's crown prince, at that time, Li Chongjun has long been a loner, and he is not resigned to it. ”
Princess Taiping nodded approvingly: "Jian'er, although you are smart, but when it comes to seeing people, you are not as good as Aman, and you will have to learn more from your cousin in the future." ”
Xue Chongjian was unconvinced: "Cousin, from your point of view, what should we do now?"
Li Longji said with a smile: "Right now, just be optimistic about yourself, don't get into trouble, wait with peace of mind, and wait and see what happens." Xue Chongjian said: "It turns out that my cousin's clever plan is just one word 'wait', who wouldn't know this." Li Longji said with a smile: "Wait, of course, anyone can do it, but to grasp the opportunity of 'waiting' is the most difficult kung fu in the world." It's not okay to be angry, it's not okay to be tired and slack, cousin, the so-called sandpiper and clam compete with each other, and the fisherman profits. This is the "waiting" kung fu, the fisherman will scatter the sandpiper mussel if he starts early, and if he starts late, the sandpiper will eat all the mussel meat, and then spread his wings and fly away, the left and right are empty, only the timing of the action is just right, will sit on the fisherman's profit. ”
Xue Chongjian thought for a while and suddenly smiled: "It turns out that you want to ......" Princess Taiping smiled and said nothing, Li Longji smiled and waved his hand again and again: "Don't say, don't say." ”
In the queen's bedroom, there were several degrees in Webster's curtain on the embroidered bed, the brocade was opened, and the man took Webster into his arms, but it was not Li Xian, it was Wu Sansi!
In Wu Sansi's arms, Wei Shijiao was panting and sweating. It took half a sound before the two of them calmed down. Wei Shi said angrily: "Okay, you are a father-in-law, and you are so bold that your mother-in-law is here." ”
Wu Sansi smiled: "Xiang'er, we are not only in-laws, don't forget, you are still my cousin's daughter-in-law, now my cousin is sluggish, as a courtier, he naturally shares his worries for the king." ”
After that, the two of them laughed wildly. Wu Sansi smiled and said: "Today I am above the court, and I ask Your Majesty to make Li Chongjun the prince of the East Palace." ”
Wei Shi was furious, "Why are you like this? I saved your life and restored your phase, but you did this to me!" Na Wu Sansi stood naked in front of the bed and said with a smile: "Where in the world does a woman treat her lover like this? You see that other people's Wan'er is much gentler than you." ”
Wei Shi said angrily: "If you want to find her, get out of here!" Wu Sansi was still not annoyed, and said with a smile: "I knew you would be so unreasonable, but I did this for your good." Wei Shi turned over and sat up and said angrily: "You gave up the position of the crown prince to others, is it still for my own good?
