Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4109 is imminent
Li Xiaogong had always looked down upon this arrogant and rebellious His Royal Highness the King of Wei, now hearing his harsh words and sinister intentions, he became more and more displeased, even his expression was hesitant and he did not restrain himself, he could see it all at a glance.

Li Ji said slowly: "His Royal Highness Wei Wang's words are justified, everyone has his own ambitions, and no one can do anything about it. But please understand that His Majesty is still in danger at this moment. It's better to be more peaceful and infamous to leave a lifetime of infamy."

Such words from his mouth are already a blatant warning - His Majesty is not dead yet, you'd better be honest, whoever dances happily will die quickly.

Of course, neither the crown prince nor the king of Jin, nor even the king of Wei may have taken his warning seriously.

Still the same sentence, in the face of the supreme imperial power in the world, no one can resist the temptation, even if they have to fight hard even if they are close to death, how can they let go of the slightest chance?

The three princes had different expressions, but they didn't speak this time.

Fang Jun coughed lightly, and said, "The county king is mature and thoughtful, so let's do it this way."

Judging from the current situation, His Majesty Li Er probably did not leave a will, so Li Chengqian is still the heir apparent of the Tang Empire.Although it is very disrespectful to think so, the fact is that once His Majesty Li Er is unconscious until the day of his funeral, Li Chengqian can justifiably ascend the throne.

Even though there were many assumptions about the ownership of the reserves before, it is undeniable that the current situation cannot be better. Whether it is for Li Chengqian or the entire empire, the loss can be minimized...

In this way, Jin Wang Li Zhi must be trapped here, so as not to go out to mess with moths.

Xiao Yu frowned, intending to object, making Li Zhi completely lose the initiative in being trapped in the palace, but Li Xiaogong's excuse of "serving illness" was really undeniable, so he could only look at Li Zhi and nodded slightly.

Li Zhi didn't speak, and looked like a filial son with a sad face...

……

Back at the residence, Li Zhi and Xiao Yu sat opposite each other, with worried expressions on their faces, and even more dissatisfaction: "Uncle Wang seems to be on the side of the crown prince, thanks to his father's trust in him, when his father was dying, But he ignored his father's intentions and just blindly flattered the crown prince, it's really shameful!"

Even if the father did not leave a will, who doesn't know the meaning of the father wanting to enshrine himself as the crown prince?If he is really a loyal minister of the father, he should support the father's holy will when the father faints, instead of falling to the side of the more powerful prince.

It's all for self-interest, how can there be any loyalty?
Even if Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, is like this, the positions of the rest of the clan kings are bound to be similar, at least in terms of the people's hearts, they are inferior to the prince.

But who made the royal father never have time to change the crown, and the crown prince is still the legitimate crown prince of the country today...

Xiao Yu didn't think so, he knelt down opposite Li Zhi, raised his hand to pour tea for Li Zhi, and said in a low voice: "It may not be like what Your Highness thinks, the King of Hejian County is the leader of the clan, and this critical time represents the The will of the entire clan, the stability of the government must be the top priority. He not only confined His Highness here, but the Crown Prince also stayed in the palace? The most important thing is that His Majesty is only critically ill now, and he is most afraid that His Highness and the Crown Prince will die because of the competition The outbreak of war caused the situation to become unmanageable, because once His Majesty wakes up, his responsibility cannot be shirked. But when Emperor Father really has something he can't bear to say, he may not have such an attitude at that time."

The civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty have already deeply respected His Majesty, and will never be weakened by His Majesty's serious illness and fainting. Everyone sees their true faces.

People like Li Xiaogong, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin and others have been immersed in the court for many years and are strictly prohibited by nature. At this time, it is difficult to see what their position is...

Li Zhi thought for a while, felt that it made sense, and was a little excited: "You Houwei has already assembled outside the Chunming Gate, and this move will surely cause the minds of the sixteen other troops to fluctuate. Once the father dies from a serious illness, how can these people Don’t choose to stand in line? As long as we can be the first to win, not only the neutrals will respond one after another, even the subordinates of the Eastern Palace will also change their ranks!"

As for Cheng Yaojin, the former guard of Chang'an, the staff of the Jin Palace never regarded him as a stumbling block on the road to the reserve. Because Cheng Yaojin was able to part ways with the Shandong family for his own benefit, it shows that he is selfish in nature, what is his name? In his eyes, it is all in vain, how to ensure or even expand his own interests is the most important thing.

Therefore, even if a battle for reserves breaks out, Cheng Yaojin will only push the boat along with the current and add icing on the cake, instead of going against the trend and giving charcoal in a timely manner.

Xiao Yu was not so optimistic, sighed softly and said: "Among the sixteen armies, there are dark men we planted. These people may not be able to accompany His Highness forward, but they can still follow the trend. The problem is that these people see It seems that there are a lot of people and they have all the advantages, but Li Jing is in charge of the Six Commanders of the East Palace, with fierce combat power and strict discipline. Even though the Right Tunwei is currently in charge of the Jiangxia King, they are all Fang Jun's confidantes. It is also a big trouble to rise up, and our side may not be able to withstand it."

Previously, the Guanlongmen Clan used all the troops under their control to carry out military admonitions, and the momentum was extremely massive, and the number was several times or even ten times that of the Eastern Palace army. Everyone felt that the Eastern Palace had no chance of winning.As a result, the huge Guanlong army was beaten to pieces by the Six Commanders of the East Palace and the Right Tunwei. Not only did they ruin the hundreds of years of experience of the Guanlongmen Clan in one fell swoop, even Changsun Wuji had to commit suicide and apologize.

Facing Li Jing, the No. 1 handsome man in the world, and Fang Jun's Youtunwei, who is openly number one in combat power, who dares to say that he will win?

Li Zhi did not take it seriously: "Although the Youtun Guards are strong, they are unrivaled in the world in their firearms and tactics. Although Li Jing is strong, he must have a strong army to drive him. Before Guanlong's military remonstrance, most of the yamen in the court were destroyed. The foundry bureau was even razed to the ground. Although it is now being rebuilt, there is a lack of equipment, manpower, and funds, and the production capacity is not enough to stand one or two in front of the station. Youtunwei does not have enough firearms, and the East Palace Six Rates do not have enough ordnance. Fang Jun is as capable as Sun Wu, and he will not be able to turn the tide. At that time, the competition between the two sides will be the number of people, and we may not be at a disadvantage."

No matter how he calculates, he feels that his side is not at a disadvantage.

Besides, as the saying goes, "wealth and wealth are sought in danger", how can there be a battle that can be won in the world?I was not the crown prince in the first place, but now the huge battle for the crown is a counterattack, so how can I not take some risks?

Just like when the father launched the "Xuanwu Gate Change", at first he just wanted to burn everything, unwilling to be slaughtered by Prince Yin, and fought back. In the end, after a fight, he narrowly won, and finally seized it against him, and achieved grand supremacy. , Yuji Tianxia.

The current situation is somewhat similar to that of the past, even more advantageous than the father at that time. After all, Emperor Gaozu did not think of passing the reserve to the father at that time. The father was almost an enemy of the whole world...

The emperor was able to create a grand hegemony under a worse situation, why can't I?

Xiao Yu didn't quite agree with King Jin's optimism, but at the moment the arrow was on the string and had to be launched, and it was true that there was no way to avoid all risks.

He just warned: "You must always pay attention to the situation in the bedroom. Once His Majesty's funeral, His Highness must know immediately, and then take the lead, and try to hold the advantage in your hands. Otherwise, if you step late, Your Highness's life will be in danger."

Li Zhi is full of confidence in this: "Duke Song can rest assured that no matter what happens in the palace, it is impossible to hide it from the king."

Xiao Yu nodded.

He knew that Li Zhi grew up with His Majesty Li Er since he was a child, and he was very familiar with the people around Li Er. Since he was interested in fighting for the heir, he would definitely try his best to win over the people around His Majesty and find out all the news at any time.But since Li Zhi is so determined, then this eyeliner must have a high status, and he is even one of the few servants serving His Majesty.

Wang De is a man of great wisdom and stupidity. Although he is only an eunuch, he claims to be a scholar and flaunts his loyalty. It is difficult to bribe him to betray His Majesty.

Except for Wang De, there is probably only the sinister and ruthless Wang Shoushi...

Thinking of this, he reminded: "Your Highness is kind, but you can't be unguarded against others, especially for such a major event of life and death, you need to carefully screen and keep your mind firmly, and you must not fall into the trap of others."

If he can betray the news of His Majesty by His Majesty's side, how can he not betray you?
That kind of person is mercenary and has no position. You have to believe it, but you can't trust it...

Li Zhi nodded again and again: "Don't worry, this king will save it."

A perfect deduction of the current situation has been done before, and every step has been carefully considered to try to be foolproof.

Once the father cannot be treated, the action will be launched immediately, and he will never sit still.

*****
As the leader of the clan and the person in control of the situation in the palace at the moment, Li Xiaogong occupied a flipped room outside the imperial study, where he handled official business.

Hearing that His Majesty is fine for the time being, Li Xiaogong let go of his worries, returned here exhausted physically and mentally, took a bath and changed clothes under the attendant service, sat in front of the desk in a refreshed body, took a sip of hot tea, and exhaled heavily, Only then did I feel a little more relaxed.

In the past two years, I have been in charge of the Protectorate of the Western Regions in the Western Regions. Not only is the weather bad and the materials are scarce, but I also have to face the constraints of the Guanlongmen Clan and the invasion of powerful enemies from outside the region. .

Then he was secretly and urgently ordered by His Majesty to return to Beijing to preside over the affairs of the imperial family. He couldn't sleep at night, couldn't eat well, and almost couldn't hold on...

Sitting on the chair, he was concentrating, and then he cheered up to deal with official duties.

It's just that after reading the two official documents, a servant came in to report, saying that it was the British public who asked to see...

Li Xiaogong couldn't be negligent, he hastily asked someone to welcome Li Ji in, got up and sat down with him on the mat in front of the window, and asked: "Just after parting, Mr. Mao came to the door, but what's the matter?"

Li Ji didn't exchange pleasantries, and cut straight to the point: "Which side does the Crown Prince and Jin Wang, the Duke of Jin, intend to stand on?"
