People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 668 East Sea King, Arrive

"Princess Huainan is here!"

There was a shout outside the door, and Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan, who were standing at the door of the Dongkua courtyard, looked at each other, and their expressions became serious at the same time.

They can control the affairs in Chang'an City, but they can't control the princes and relatives who came from other states one after another.

Especially for Princess Huainan, even the emperor can't control her whereabouts.

Princess Huainan, the No.12 daughter of Emperor Gaozu, was born in the fourth year of Wude. At that time, Li Jiancheng was still the crown prince, and the brother-sister relationship may still be somewhat.

……

Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan walked quickly to the door, and before they could stand still, they saw the silver-haired, hale-bodied Princess Huainan in a black suit, accompanied by her son Feng Simin, the governor of Ruzhou, from the outside walk in.

The Taifu Shaoqing Liang Wujian, who had been welcoming guests outside, accompanied him to the courtyard.

Seeing Pei Guangxiao, Minister of Zongzheng Temple greeting the guests under the coffin shed, and Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan coming up to meet them, Liang Wujian slightly bowed his hands and went back outside the courtyard to greet the guests.

"Meet Your Highness Princess Huainan." Pei Guangxiao and Ming Chongyan bowed their hands at the same time.

"Aunt!" Li Xuan bowed slightly, and then stepped forward slightly and said: "Aunt's trip is going well, if you are tired, you can go to my nephew's house to rest later."

Princess Huainan first raised her hand to let Pei Guangxiao and Ming Chongyan stand up, then looked at Li Xuan with a little surprise, nodded deliberately and said: "27 Lang is getting better at talking now, and even more so after getting married. I have become more assertive now, I heard that today's events were arranged by 27 Lang, from Fangmen to Yuanmen, Wannian County Magistrate and Taifu Shaoqing stopped many people for you!"

Li Xuan smiled awkwardly, but he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Auntie, all the arrangements my nephew made today are actually for the benefit of everyone. If anyone among them is contaminated with something that shouldn't be contaminated, it may be fine right now." , but if something really happens in the future, I am afraid it may not be able to make up for it even if the family is ransacked and exterminated."

Princess Huainan frowned suddenly.

When she came to Yongjia Fang today, she brought a group of housekeepers, maids and guards with her, but now, all the housekeepers and maids are blocked outside Yongjia Fang, and the guards at home are the Taifu Shaoqing Liang Wujian personally. Outside the main gate of Guide County.

Only their mother and son were welcomed into the mansion by Liang Wujian.

Princess Huainan saw clearly that not only her family, but also servants, maids and guards of many other families were stopped.

I even heard from the Wannian county magistrate that in the whole Yongjiafang, only people from this workshop can enter and exit after being searched in the past few days, and people from other workshops are not allowed to enter except those who come to attend the funeral.

With the double means of front and back, I don't know how many people who wanted to come to pay homage were stopped.

But having said that, it's too late to hide this kind of thing, so how can there be any serious people who come to worship on the pole.

Princess Huainan nodded slightly, and then said: "Everything in the mansion is arranged in this way, so it is not bad, so has the road to Gaoyangyuan been properly arranged?"

Li Xuan's expression immediately turned solemn, the worship in the mansion was only one aspect, the real trouble was on the way to Gaoyangyuan Mausoleum.

He had to cross half of Chang'an City, and then arrive at Gaoyang Plain in the southwest of the city. This road was not easy.

Li Xuan solemnly cupped her hands and said, "Report to Auntie, everything has been settled."

"That's good." The eldest princess of Huainan looked Li Xuan up and down, and finally raised her head to look in the direction of the coffin, and said softly: "Let's go, accompany my aunt to worship, and burn incense sticks for your father."

"Nephew obey." Li Xuan immediately stretched out her hand, beckoning Princess Huainan to go first, and then looked at Feng Simin beside her with a puzzled face.

Feng Simin, governor of Ruzhou, showed a wry smile on his face, and shook his head helplessly.

Li Xuan sighed softly, as a son, how can he stop his mother from doing things, even if this matter is very sensitive.

Princess Huainan, in her capacity, even the emperor and empress Wu couldn't stop her, let alone her son Feng Simin.

Li Xuan and Feng Simin didn't have much acquaintance. When Li Xuan got married last year, it was Feng Simin who accompanied Princess Huainan.

Li Xuan has never seen it before, the captain-in-law of Huainan eldest princess Feng Yan said.

Feng Yandao is now the Inspector of Cangzhou, in Hebei.

Feng Yandao is the old prime minister, Zhongshuling, the son of Deyi, the Duke of Miguo.

Over the years, he has successively served as governor of Bianzhou, governor of Ningzhou, governor of Qizhou, governor of Qizhou, governor of Jinzhou, governor of Qianzhou, governor of Guangzhou, governor of Cangzhou, etc., but he has no hope for the center.

Li Xuan saw that a Qianniu guard had left the mansion quickly, and had no doubt rushed to the palace.

The emperor and Empress Wu will be very concerned about the arrival of the eldest princess of Huainan.

After Li Xuan accompanied the Huainan eldest princess to offer incense and worship, she was sent to the inner courtyard to rest, and then returned to Dongkua courtyard by herself, and then he was slightly relieved.

At this moment, the voice outside the door sounded again: "His Royal Highness Xiangwang has arrived."

Li Xuan's face immediately sank, he turned around, and looked coldly at Ming Chongyan beside him.

Ming Chongyan was also surprised, and hurriedly cupped his hands to Li Xuan, before he had time to say more, he immediately walked towards the door.

Li Dan walked in from the courtyard door alone, Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan immediately stepped forward and bowed their hands: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

"Uncle Wang, teacher!" Li Dan bowed his hands to Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan to return the salute, and then said: "Brother Wang, let Dan come to pay respects to Uncle Wang, and at the same time express condolences to Aunt Guide!"

"Prince?" Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan looked at each other, their faces shared the same surprise, what did the prince want to do by doing this?
Of course, what the prince asked Xiang Wang to do was right, but I am afraid that he did not greet the emperor and Empress Wu about this matter.

No, the emperor and empress Wu definitely did not say hello to this matter. If the two of them knew about it, they would never let Li Dan come.

This is a bit over the top.

The prince would not do such a thing. Someone must have instigated the prince to do this, and it might have something to do with the king of the East China Sea.

……

Pei Guangxiao, Minister of Zongzheng Temple, took Li Dan to offer incense to Concubine Zheng.

Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan got together, and Li Xuan looked straight at Ming Chongyan and said, "Really, after the meeting, I am afraid that the real person will need to personally send His Royal Highness Xiang Wang back to the palace."

Ming Chongyan nodded, waved the whisk in his hand, and said solemnly: "Naturally, but since the man did it like this, he probably wanted to do it on the way to the mausoleum. Your lord, be careful."

Li Xuan nodded silently, and said: "I hope the real person will tell the inner guards, the secret guards, to pay attention to my king's orders."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, but there is an order, and they dare not disobey it." Ming Chongyan nodded, and the two had reached an agreement on this matter.

The king of the East China Sea tried every means to get Li Dan here, just to mobilize Ming Chongyan, but Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan had no choice but to do so.

Li Dan's safety is more important than catching the King of the East China Sea.

Li Xuan looked up at the sky, and said softly, "Really, it's almost noon..."

"The angels are here!"

A loud cry interrupted Li Xuan's words again. Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan looked at each other and immediately understood that it was the Emperor and Empress Wu who had sent someone over to the Guide County Lord's mansion because of the arrival of Princess Huainan.

Everyone in the mansion, the head of Guide County, Liu Yingdao, the head of Wenxi County, Yu Shanxun, the head of Leling County, Princess Honghua, her husband Murong Nuohebo, the governor of Anle Prefecture, and his son, General Zhenjun, Youbao Taowei General Murong Zhong.

He is admonishing the doctor Xue Yuanchao, Zheng Guogong, and Wei Shuyu, the governor of Shanzhou.

Li Xuan, Pei Guangxiao, Minister of Zongzheng Temple, Chen Guang, Minister of Guanglu Temple, Liang Wujian, Shaoqing of Taifu, and Qiu Huan, Minister of Internal Affairs.

A crowd of people from top to bottom, inside and outside, all stood respectfully in the courtyard, welcoming the arrival of the angel.

……

Inside the swaying carriage, a figure in a dark green official uniform leaned against the carriage with eyes closed.

Suddenly, the curtain of the carriage was raised, and immediately after, a phantom figure in the shape of a human had rushed into the carriage.

The eyes of the resting figure with closed eyes opened immediately, and immediately after, an emerald jade pendant was thrown out.

The phantom immediately landed on the jade pendant, and his figure solidified immediately.

Wusheng Daoist, Li Miao, the son of Yi'an County King Li Xiaochang, suddenly appeared in the carriage, and then bowed his hands respectfully: "Your Highness!"

On the opposite side, the King of the East China Sea nodded slightly, and then asked, "How is the situation?"

"Yongjiafang is still unable to enter, and the personnel arranged before cannot be turbulent after entering it. There are Jinwu guards guarding every door." Li Miao said calmly: "On the way to Gaoyangyuan outside the city. , The subordinate originally arranged two teams of manpower, but found that there were four teams of left guard cavalry patrolling back and forth, so the subordinate let them retreat to the city. Do it in Quchifang."

"Unexpectedly." Donghai King nodded slightly, and said, "That's right, but this manpower!"

"None of them belong to us. They don't even know who is going to be robbed. The king of Nanchang sealed the news too tightly, which helped us instead." Li Miao breathed a sigh of relief. The situation was worse than he thought. It's even easier.

"That's good, just be careful, if there is a disharmony from time to time, self-protection is the main thing." The King of the East China Sea specifically reminded him.

Li Miao said softly, "This subordinate understands."

This time, they didn't even use their own people. They used some outlaws from Chang'an City. Even if something happened, they wouldn't be affected at all.

Li Miao bowed slightly, and then quickly flew away from the car window at an extremely high speed, and quickly flew high into the sky.

Under his feet, a convoy was slowly approaching Yongjiafang.

Above his head, a pigeon hawk flying higher in the sky quietly stared at him.

……

"The angels are here!"

Wu Chengsi, who was dressed in a black brocade robe, led Yang Jiong, Song Zhiwen, King Luo Bin, and a servant in Tsing Yi into the courtyard.

Everyone in the courtyard immediately bowed and saluted: "I have seen the angel!"

"Everyone, please stand up." Wu Chengsi gently stretched out his hand, lifted everyone up, then looked at the servant beside him and said, "Please, servant!"

The waiter in Tsing Yi nodded to the crowd, then walked through the crowd until he walked under the coffin, and then took out the imperial decree, opened his mouth and read: "In the second year of Wei Shangyuan, the age of Bingzi, if the emperor said: There is a reason today Concubine Zheng, the concubine of the Concubine Gui, the silver scorpion of the Gui Palace, the lord of the guard of the Marquis Meng;

The servant chant in front, Li Xuan bowed her head.

On one side are the head of Guide County, Liu Yingdao, the son-in-law of Wenxi County, Yu Shanxun, the son-in-law of Leling County, Princess Honghua, and her husband Murong Nuohebo, the governor of Anle Prefecture, and his son General Zhenjun and General Taowei of Youbao Murong Zhong, all bowed to the ground.

At this time, an entry suddenly jumped up in the crowd.

[Guide County Lord Li Wanying, born in the first year of Zhenguan, the adopted daughter of the Yin Crown Princess Zheng Guanyin, father, British Duke Li Ji, mother British Duke and wife Zhang. According to legend, the eldest daughter of the British prince died. 】

Li Xuan's eyes suddenly opened like copper bells.

He looked slightly to the side, and at the same time, another entry jumped out.

[King Luo Bin, King of the East China Sea, born in the first year of Zhenguan, the adopted son of Luo Luyuan, magistrate of Bochang County, Qingzhou, his father concealed the crown prince Li Jiancheng, and his mother concealed the crown prince Zheng Guanyin.

He finally came.

　Li Ji, daughter, Li Shi, died in the first year of Zhenguan (627).
