Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3491
Changsun Wuji personally sent the trembling Yuwen Shiji to the door, watched him board the car with the help of his servants, and then went away in the heavy snow, and then returned to the lobby, and asked someone to make a pot of hot tea and drink He took a sip and sighed.

Yuwenjie took the Yuwen family's children to withdraw, which made him see that the precarious alliance relationship of the Guanlongmen Clan could fall apart at any time.On the surface, Yuwen Shi and his visit this time gave his eldest grandson Wuji enough face, and also established his position as the leader of Guan Long, but the inner intention was that he did not want to be accused of internal strife or even split in Guan Long. On the body.

He wanted to follow behind his eldest grandson Wuji to gain greater benefits, but also kept enough calmness and distance at all times, so that he could withdraw in time when the situation turned upside down, so that they would not all fall into inextricability. The most authentic thoughts of home.

No one spared no effort to support him as he did back then, and some only used and calculated.

What's more, if the situation really turns from victory to defeat in the future, these allies who have been bound together for generations will turn their swords against his eldest grandson Wuji...

At that time, the various families in Guanlong tried their best to seek power, and countless children threw their heads and blood, just to let the descendants of the family enjoy wealth forever.Unexpectedly, the wealth and honor that the ancestors finally obtained through tireless struggle made the children and grandchildren corrode their will and drained their energy. Not only did they refuse to work hard for the future, they even forgot that everything today is based on unity.

Without the spirit of unity and forging ahead, the Guanlongmen clan will become a mass of loose sand, which can be attacked by political opponents anytime, anywhere and bitten into pieces.

The sad thing is that even the Yuwen scholars and the elders of this kind of clan can't see through the danger hidden in this seemingly peaceful situation. The emperor regarded it as a thorn in his eye and a thorn in his flesh, and was anxious to get rid of it quickly.

After being discouraged for a while, Changsun Wuji cheered up again. After all, there were no successors among the sons of the Changsun family. If he wanted the family to always occupy the position of the center of power, he could only rely on him to spend the rest of his life working hard to provide for future generations. Build a golden rice bowl that will never break.

Taking advantage of the last bit of power remaining in the alliance between the Guanlongmen clan, the eldest grandson's family must be pushed to an unshakable position.

After drinking all the tea, he summoned a nephew and said: "Hold my seal, go outside the Xuanwu Gate, and urge Chai Zhewei to raise troops as soon as possible."

No matter where Chai Zhewei's heart goes, he must be allowed to capture the Xuanwu Gate as soon as possible, enter the Forbidden Palace, and completely break the formation of the Six Rates of the Eastern Palace.As long as the East Palace is defeated and the crown prince is deposed, even if Chang'an City is in chaos, he believes that it will still be the Guanlong Clan who wins and controls the situation in the end.

However, if the Battle of the Imperial City is allowed to drag on, the situation in the world will change rapidly, and no one can predict what will happen in the future, especially since the Eastern Expeditionary Army is returning on a short journey, and there is no time to wait.

"Here!"

Hearing this, the nephew quickly took orders and left.

Changsun Wuji picked up the teapot again, but found that the teapot was empty. After thinking for a while, he called a servant at home and said, "Go back to the house immediately, and bring Qilang here."

Although everything in the current battle situation requires him to sit in command and decide with one word, but such an opportunity can cultivate the ability of the heirs, and at the very least can enhance the sense of presence and prestige.But Changsun Yan has a cold heart and has taken refuge in the East Palace, so he naturally dare not entrust him with a big responsibility. Changsun Wen is very dark and ruthless, so he is suitable to be in charge of the house, but he is currently captured by the Fang family.

The remaining eldest grandson Xu, eldest grandson Ze, and eldest grandson Run are all too young, and their personalities are not stable enough. After calculation, only the seventh son, eldest grandson Jing, is barely suitable.

Of course, whether it is suitable or not, we need to observe it and see how it behaves in the chaos...

"Here!"

The servant left quickly.

Changsun Wuji picked up the teapot again, only then remembered that he had discovered that there was no water in the pot just now, but he forgot in such a short time...

Can't help sighing quietly, looking at the noisy crowd running back and forth in the hall, my mind is a little overwhelmed...

*****
King Jing's Mansion.

Li Yuanjing stood in front of the window in a brocade robe, looking at the dim lights and snow falling outside the window with his hands behind his back, trying to calm down, but his heart was almost boiling.

Who would have thought that the good opportunity he had been waiting for would appear so suddenly?

Once upon a time, he thought that such an opportunity would never come in his life...

The empire is getting stronger and stronger, and Li Er's foundation is becoming more and more stable. Whether those former officials of the Sui Dynasty or Li Jiancheng's loyal party members, they are dead and old now, and no one mentions the old things about Xuanwumen. , What killing brothers and brothers, what forcing father to abdicate, are gradually not worth mentioning in front of the imperial power.

No one dared to challenge Li Er's authority, besides, Li Er is now at the peak of his youth and vigor, and Li Yuanjing felt that even if he died, Li Er might not die...

But who would have thought that all of a sudden, the clouds will see the sun, and the peak will turn around.

Nowadays, the government and the people, as well as inside and outside Chang'an, are discussing how Changsun Wuji dared to launch a military remonstrance to dethrone the Eastern Palace so recklessly, wondering how to explain to His Majesty even if he succeeded, and how to bear His Majesty's anger...

But Li Yuanjing knew that His Majesty might not be able to return to Chang'an.

First, the news that "Your Majesty fell off his horse and was seriously injured" spread in the city of Chang'an, but the court never came forward to refute the rumors, and then the Eastern Expeditionary Army failed halfway, and suddenly withdrew after failing to capture Pingrang City, and then Changsun Wuji sneaked back to Chang'an Presiding over the military remonstrance... These things are connected in series, almost pointing to an indisputable fact.

That is, His Majesty Li Er was very likely to be seriously injured in the army, and died of his injuries, and died. However, Li Ji and others kept concealing it and did not report it for the sake of stabilizing the overall situation. They just returned to Chang'an part-time.

Otherwise, how would his eldest grandson Wuji dare to send troops into the city to carry out military remonstrance, intending to dethrone the prince established by His Majesty Li Er's handbook?

With Li Er's domineering character, no matter how unbearable the crown prince he registered, he can only be deposed by him alone. How can he bear it if others usurp the imperial power and take his place?
"My lord, the people sent to Xuanwumen have returned."

Dong Mingyue was dressed in a splendid palace attire. Under the candlelight, her skin was icy and her skin was as beautiful as a flower. Her figure was graceful and graceful, like a fairy in the moon palace.

"Oh? Call me quickly!"

Li Yuanjing was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty at the moment, and impatiently walked back to the desk and sat down.

Dong Mingyue came to the door, nodded slightly to the people outside, then retreated to the side of the desk, one person walked in quickly from the door, came forward to salute, and said: "See you, my lord!"

It was Hegan Chengji.

Li Yuanjing waved his hands and said impatiently: "There is no need to be polite, what did Chai Zhewei say?"

Dong Mingyue brewed a cup of tea and placed it on the coffee table in front of Hegan Chengji. Hegan Chengji stared at the pair of slender and beautiful jade hands, and glanced at the peerless face of the closed moon and shameful flowers, his heart pounded. With a jump, he quickly looked away to avoid losing his composure, and said first: "Thank you Miss Dong..."

Then he said to Li Yuanjing: "Duke Qiao has already promised that once the time is right, he will attack the Xuanwu Gate immediately."

"Hey!"

Li Yuanjing clapped his hands with unspeakable excitement at first, and then said angrily: "This kid is too slick and has no courage. Right now, the rebels are besieging the imperial city, and the Six Rates of the East Palace have no time for him. If he raises troops to attack Xuanwumen at this time, he will surely You can easily defeat Youtunwei and Zhang Shigui's Beiya imperial army in Xuanwumen! But they said that when the "time is ripe", the time is really ripe, and the eldest grandson Wuji has already broken through the imperial city and entered the forbidden palace. How can we have a chance? Really! trash!"

The so-called "treasure your life while doing great things", he thinks that Chai Zhewei is more suitable for Li Yuanjing's comment from the ruling and opposition parties in recent years.

It is of course very risky to attack Xuanwumen right now, but the risk also means the size of the profit. When the elder Sun Wuji has already broken through the imperial city, you have a chance to win, and you attack Xuanwumen again, even if you win, what good will you gain?
But at this time, as long as Xuanwumen is captured, no matter whether he chooses Li Yuanjing or Changsun Wuji, he is absolutely qualified to ask for more benefits...

The flames soaring into the sky from the imperial city, and the rumbling thunder of thunder shook Li Yuanjing's heartstrings one by one, making him impatient and feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Dong Mingyue looked at the words from the side, and said softly: "Since Chai Zhewei is hesitant, why not go to the Youtunwei camp in person, and urge him to attack Xuanwumen immediately? Just look at the current situation, the rebels are certainly powerful, but the six leaders of the East Palace They are all elites, and it is impossible for the rebels to enter the imperial city for a moment. The place to break the deadlock must be at the Xuanwu Gate, and whoever controls the Xuanwu Gate will be the ultimate winner."
