Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3369 Catastrophe is imminent
The current situation is quite difficult. We can neither announce His Majesty Li Er's condition to the public nor send him back to Chang'an. After all, the two places are separated by thousands of miles. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it until I reach Guanzhong...

Even though Li Ji and Changsun Wuji were usually full of wit and scheming, it was inevitable that they panicked at this time, so they could only try to stabilize the situation and wait until His Majesty Li Er woke up before making the holy order.

Li Ji said to Changsun Wuji: "The Chinese army's big tent, please ask Mr. Zhao Guo to take care of it. It is strictly forbidden to come in and out, and you must not come close. You must conceal your majesty's illness. I will go to sit in charge of the battle ahead, and both sides are in danger. Don't make any mistakes, otherwise we will have no face to see the elders in Guanzhong again!"

No matter which aspect goes wrong, it will be a catastrophic event, neither of them can afford it...

Changsun Wuji looked solemn, nodded and said: "Don't worry, the old man knows the seriousness. In such a critical moment, we should get rid of prejudices and work together to overcome all difficulties!"

Li Ji nodded again and again, cupped his hands slightly, glanced at His Majesty Li Er who was still unconscious on the bed, with a heavy heart, turned around and strode out of the tent.

In the battle of the Eastern Expedition, there is no room for loss.

In a sense, the importance of this battle is even more important than the life and death of His Majesty.All the power of the country to march eastward, regardless of its political significance or the loss of the empire's national power, means that this battle can only be successful and cannot fail.

Otherwise, it will cause a huge backlash, and the consequences will be disastrous.

He and Changsun Wuji have been colleagues for many years. Although they have not had much contact with each other, they understand each other's character and style.At such an extraordinary time, if Changsun Wuji was thinking about how to fight for power and gain, and put his own self-interest first, the situation would be completely corrupted.

However, the matter has come to this point, and we can only hope that Changsun Wuji will take care of the overall situation and not use self-interest to cause the situation to get out of hand...

Walking out of the big tent, Li Ji frowned, thinking about the current situation all the way, and went outside the camp gate, surrounded by his own soldiers, to Anhe Palace to clean up the mess.

But when he walked halfway, he turned back to his barracks, asked a soldier to grind it for him, quickly wrote a letter, sealed it with wax paint, and whispered: "Hold my seal, and hurry back to Chang'an to meet the prince. Your Highness, hand over this letterhead to His Highness with your own hands. Remember, you must hand it to His Highness with your own hands, and no one can handle it.”

"Here!"

That soldier also saw His Majesty Li Er fall off his horse with his own eyes. Although he didn't dare to ask, he knew that there must be an urgent matter, so he quickly took the letter paper, took the seal, and took two companions with him when he left the barracks, and hurried back Chang'an.

In the end, Li Ji still didn't trust Changsun Wuji, fearing that Changsun Wuji would play some tricks, so he could only inform the prince in advance, and make early preparations for the changes.

……

Chinese army tent.

Changsun Wuji sat on the chair with a gloomy complexion, watching the imperial physician bustling around, checking the pulse for a while, writing prescriptions for a while, and fetching warm water for His Majesty Li Er to wipe his cheeks, hands and feet.

Heart ups and downs.

He and His Majesty Li Er have known each other since childhood, and they became close friends and admired each other.He was bullied and abused at home, and together with his younger sister, he was brought up by his uncle Gao Shilian, which made him grow in talent and knowledge.

Later, he made the decision to marry his younger sister to His Majesty Li Er, which made the relationship between the two parties stronger and stronger, and he was more determined to plan for His Majesty Li Er.

They faced the suppression of Prince Li Jiancheng together, escaped assassination and poisoning several times, and as the heir of the eldest grandson, he led all the Guanlongmen to stand behind His Majesty Li Er, supported him, and finally assisted His Majesty Li Er to seize it. Make great achievements.

The reason why His Majesty Li Er was able to ascend the throne was due to his eldest grandson Wuji's contribution, which can be called number one.

Of course, His Majesty Li Er never treated him badly.

Zhao Guogong, Situ, the number one hero of Zhenguan... even betrothed the eldest daughter to Changsun Chong, so that the Tian family and the eldest grandson's family entered into a marriage contract for generations, sharing prosperity and prosperity, and treated the eldest grandson's family with love and respect, and made the eldest grandson family become the world The most powerful clan.

However, the foundation of the Changsun family lies in the Guanlong clan behind them, rather than the Li Tang royal family whose interests have become more and more conflicting as their power grows.

This is a natural barrier caused by status, and it cannot be reversed by manpower, unless Changsun Wuji is willing to give up the importance of the family and is willing to follow the trend to become the eagle dog of the emperor, or His Majesty Li Er is willing to disperse the imperial power and be restricted by his courtiers everywhere.

It is a pity that these two people are outstanding people for a while, they are resolute, resolute and headstrong, and they will never compromise half a step.

Therefore, it has just reached the situation it is today...

Changsun Wuji sat numbly, watching His Majesty Li Er who had not woken up with his chest and abdomen rising and falling slightly on the bed, all kinds of feelings came to his heart.

Whether public or private, he doesn't want to see something happen to His Majesty Li Er, at least not at this time.

Once something unbearable happens, when the responsibility is traced back, Changsun Chong will inevitably be blamed, and the Changsun family will bear the brunt.His Majesty passed away here, and the crown prince will ascend the throne in Chang'an. The first thing the new emperor will do after ascending the throne must be to question the eldest grandson's family, use similar means to cut off the wings of the eldest grandson's family, and scare the little ones to make an example of others. As for whether the eldest grandson's family can stay If a bloodline is not completely wiped out, it depends on God's will, and no one can predict it.

How could Changsun Wuji let such things happen?

But if he sends the news back to Guanzhong at this moment, so that the Guanlongmen faction can take action to prevent the crown prince from ascending the throne, once His Majesty Li Er is finally safe, then the Guanlongmen faction will only have a dead end...

It's really a dilemma and helpless, it seems that no matter what you do, the eldest grandson's family will be in disaster.

……

After a long time, Changsun Wuji recovered from his trance, saw the imperial physician sitting aside wiping his sweat, and asked, "How is your Majesty doing?"

The imperial doctor said: "Right now it seems to be stable, but these three to five days are the critical time, if you can get through it, you will be safe, but if you can't..."

Speaking of this, he paused, and said with a bitter face: "Mr. Zhao is a sensible person. It's not because I didn't try my best to treat him. It's just that the current conditions are poor and manpower is limited. I really can't do it alone. In the future, I also ask Mr. Zhao Guogong to say a few good words for this humble minister."

Changsun Wuji's heart was beating violently, but his face was calm, he nodded slightly, and said: "You can rest assured that the treatment will be done, with the old man and the Duke of England here, no matter when, no one will let you be wronged."

If something unbearable happened, the imperial doctor thought it was possible to survive, and he needed an explanation in any aspect.

Of course, if he and Li Ji jointly acted as guarantors, no one would refute the dignity of the two of them and insist on putting this imperial physician to death.

As for whether or not he will be insured for an imperial doctor...

The imperial doctor didn't seem to think so much, and he was very grateful after hearing what he said.

Changsun Wuji got up and said: "The old man will go first, if something happens, let the soldiers outside the tent go to call immediately, you must be careful, and you must not make any mistakes."

"Here! This humble minister can save me."

"Well, that's it for now."

Changsun Wuji glanced at His Majesty Li Er who was still unconscious, walked out of the big tent, and walked towards his own tent.The current situation is really too dangerous, he has to think about it quietly by himself, and sort out the context of the situation before he can decide what to do next.

Back in the tent, Changsun Wuji drove everyone out, washed his hands with warm water, made a pot of tea, sat in front of the desk, and thought about the current situation.

It is absolutely impossible to let it be. Once His Majesty makes any mistakes, the eldest grandson’s family will inevitably be held accountable; if you take some action, the entire Guanlong will be punished by His Majesty—I’m not dead yet, so you resist my prince...

You can't go left, you can't do right, and you can't do anything.

Changsun Wuji is a little anxious, he has always been resourceful, but the current situation really makes him feel tricky, because no matter what actions he should take, the current situation of His Majesty Li Er is unpredictable. If His Majesty's condition does not match, then he will immediately fall into a situation beyond redemption.

If you want to ensure that the decision-making is not wrong, you must first determine the situation of His Majesty Li Er, whether the unbearable thing really happened, or wake up from a coma and be able to preside over the overall situation...

A thought came to Changsun Wuji's mind.

It is very difficult to heal His Majesty Li Er, at least in a remote place like Liaodong, but if you want His Majesty Li Er not to wake up...

……

Chinese army tent.

The imperial physician stood at the door and watched Changsun Wuji go away, then turned and returned to the couch.

On the bed, His Majesty Li Er, who had been unconscious all this time, had his chest heaved sharply a few times, his eyes still not opened, and he just said in a hoarse voice: "Pour me some water."

The imperial doctor didn't seem to be surprised at all, bowed and nodded: "Here."

He took the warm water that had been prepared on the desk, held it with both hands before coming to the bed, and served His Majesty Li Er to drink.
