Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 69 Weilu's Murderous Intent (1)

Bachelor of the North Gate, what a Bachelor of the North Gate!After all, this Floating Cloud thing was released as scheduled. Could it be that we have been so busy that it was all in vain?Li Xian chatted and laughed casually with Li Xian, and kept reflecting in his heart. He was quite unwilling and annoyed—with the memory of the third generation, Li Xian knew the background of the Northern Gate Scholars very well. In the previous life, the reason why such a weird institution as the Bachelor of the North Gate was established was because the government at that time had basically fallen into the control of Empress Wu, but also because of the inability to subdue the gang of yin and yang. Guys, Empress Wu has carefully planned such an institution to come out, relying on bringing the emperor to order courtiers, but in the current situation, Empress Wu has not been able to govern the court openly, although because of the issue of Fengchan Taishan The victory was a heavy blow to Prince Li Hong, but after all, this kind of victory was not enough to support Empress Wu to make such a freak as a Beimen bachelor. Obviously, there must be something else wrong with it, but what is the strangeness? Li Xian was at a loss.

How the Beimen Bachelor was established is of course still somewhat doubtful, but Li Xian has fully guessed the purpose of his appearance today. There is no doubt that this is a test of Empress Wu - deliberately replacing the purpose of the Ministry of Rites There are two, one is to try the reaction of Brother Li Xian, and the other is to use this to send a message to the big shots in the court and the central government - the Northern Gate Bachelor will be of great use in the future court situation , It can be regarded as a vaccination for the courtiers in advance.

This is a malignant tumor that must be eradicated, otherwise, the future court situation will be corrupted to the point where it cannot be worsened!Li Xian made a conclusion in his mind about the Beimen Bachelor, determined to uproot such a cancer at all costs. Of course, he also knew that this matter would be difficult, and his own strength alone would not be enough to accomplish it, even with the addition of Li Xian's power is not enough, he has to rely on the hands of the prince, but even if it is the prince's family, he is still not sure how to do this. It is Gaozong who can really play a decisive role, but how to use Gaozong makes Li Xian feel difficult Li Xian couldn't help but feel dizzy when he thought of Gao Zong's cowardly temper that was eaten to death by Empress Wu.

"Seventh brother, do you have thoughts?" Although Li Xian's dual-purpose ability is good, Li Xian is not an ordinary person after all. Although he didn't realize it in a short time, but with the constant conversation along the way, after a long time, his I also saw some clues, so I couldn't help but stop the original topic, and asked with a slight frown.

"Yeah." After Li Xian saw through his mind, Li Xian didn't hide it, nodded and said: "Sixth brother, I was thinking about why my mother let those two idiots come to welcome you and my brother. I'm afraid it's not so serious here. Simple."

"Well, it's a little strange. What does the seventh brother think about this?" Li Xian was also suspicious of the appearance of Li and Yan, but after Li Xian interrupted his previous complaints, he put it to the back of his mind. At this time, he had already forgotten about it, but he was hooked by Li Xian again. Seeing that Li Xian seemed to have made up his mind, he didn't bother to think about it, and asked a question very simply.

"It's hard to say, my little brother only has a vague idea, and I'm not sure whether it's right or not." Li Xian wanted to deal with the North Gate Bachelor, so he wanted to try his best to win Li Xian's support, so he pretended to mutter He hesitated, but actually his brain was working hard to prepare a proper speech.

"It doesn't matter, only you and my brother are here. If the seventh brother has any thoughts, just speak up. There is no right or wrong." Li Xian waved his hand impatiently, and said with a look of displeasure.

"Sixth brother taught you the right thing." Seeing the impatient look on Li Xian's face, Li Xian no longer feigned hesitation, and after pleading guilty, he said solemnly: "My little brother thinks that the queen is doing this for the sake of the mother." To prepare for the administration of the dynasty, perhaps the Beimen scholars will surpass the Six Departments, once this case happens, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"Huh? How is this possible!" Li Xian immediately widened his eyes when he heard this, opened his mouth wide in surprise, and let out a cry of disbelief.

How is it possible?Yes, it is indeed unbelievable. If it weren't for Li Xian's memory of the third generation, he would not have believed that a woman's ambition could flourish to such an extent. In fact, when Empress Wu of the previous life came to govern, The courtiers couldn't believe that Gaozong was able to mess around like that, but this is the truth!
"Sixth brother, little brother, this is just a vague idea. It is really hard to prove it. If sixth brother doesn't believe it, little brother can do nothing." Li Xian really couldn't tell the secret in his heart, he could only spread his hands , compared a helpless gesture.

"This, this..." Although Li Xian has always admired Li Xian's ingenuity, after all, this inference is really too shocking. Li Xian will find it difficult to accept it for a while. He stammered for a long time, but did not say why After a long time, he glanced at Li Xian suspiciously and said, "If so, what should we do?"

"Little brother thinks..." In fact, Li Xian didn't fully think about what to do. The reason why he brought up the topic at this time was just to give Li Xian a vaccination. When Li Xian asked about the solution Li Xian was really in a bit of a dilemma. After pondering for a while, he reluctantly opened his mouth. Just as he was about to explain some of the solutions he had thought of, he heard Zhang Che's voice from outside the carriage: "Report to the second Your Majesty, the palace has arrived, please let me know where to go."

"Sixth brother, this matter is complicated, and it's hard to explain it at the moment. Why don't we discuss it later?" Li Xian didn't want to reveal his immature plan, but when he heard Zhang Che's report, he immediately took advantage of the slope to make a suggestion. road.

"That's fine, you can't be in a hurry, so let's do it first. It's fine to go to the palace and see the emperor and mother." Li Xian still didn't believe in Li Xian's judgment in his heart, seeing that the conversation could no longer continue , didn't care much, nodded, lifted the curtain of the carriage, bent down and got out of the carriage.

"Your Majesty has an oral order to announce that Lu Wang Li Xian and Zhou Wang Li Xianren will meet you at the Heart Hall!"

Not long after Li Xian brothers handed over the sign at the gate of the palace, Gao Hesheng, the eunuch for ceremonies, hurried out of the palace with two young eunuchs, and stopped in a reserved manner about four steps away from the Li Xian brothers. Stepping on his feet, he proclaimed Gaozong's oral order in a dragging tone.

"Your servants are waiting to thank your father and emperor for your grace." Although it was just a verbal order, the etiquette of receiving the order is also indispensable. After the two brothers thanked each other according to the usual practice, they got up separately. What's more, after Li Xian stood up straight, he didn't pay attention to Gao Hesheng at all, he raised his foot and walked towards the palace gate, while Li Xian approached Gao Hesheng with a smile, avoiding others. Eyes and ears, with a flick of a finger, a folded "Hundred Guan Flying Banknote" has fallen into Gao Hesheng's sleeve without anyone noticing, and then he smiled and greeted Gao Hesheng: "Thank you, Mr. Gao. "

Li Xian is well-known in the palace for his generosity, and those who went to the King of Zhou's office to deliver orders would always return with full rewards, so much so that business trips to the King's Palace of Zhou have become the beauty of the eunuchs vying to do. Poor, although Gao Hesheng has never personally experienced this one, he has heard about it a lot in the past. At this time, the color of the folded flying banknote that Li Xian flicked into his sleeve was obviously "Hundred Guan". Although he has received filial piety from others, he was still shocked, the smile on his fat face became brighter immediately, he quickly bowed his waist, and politely replied: "Your Highness, you are welcome, old slave Shouldn't be."

"Eunuch Gao, father and mother have always been good, and sister Taiping is not making trouble?" Li Xian had long known that Gao Hesheng was Empress Wu's confidant, and also a key figure who helped Empress Wu master the intelligence system in the palace, so naturally he would not have To win over his mind, but he might as well get close to it, and he might be able to use it when he knows, so he chatted with Gao Hesheng happily, without putting on the prince's airs at all.

"Okay, everything is good, the little princess can walk a few steps now, Your Highness..." Although Gao Hesheng has a high position and authority, in front of a prince like Li Xian, he is just a slave, Li Xianyou asked , he naturally did not dare not answer.

"Seventh brother, don't play mushrooms, it's not good to keep father waiting for a long time." Seeing that Li Xian was being courteous with a slave, Li Xian couldn't bear it anymore, frowning, he stopped at the palace gate , without looking back, interrupted Gao Hesheng impolitely.

Hey, this guy's old habit of looking down on others still can't be changed, so he will inevitably offend others, no wonder he still can't sit still even after becoming the prince!Seeing that Li Xian was getting impatient, Li Xian couldn't be bothered to talk to Gao Hesheng any more, and he said something to Li Xian in his heart, but he still smiled brightly on his face, and nodded apologetically to Gao Hesheng, He quickened his pace, followed Li Xian by half a step behind, and walked inward along the avenue in the palace silently.

Both Luoyang Palace and Chang'an Taiji Palace belong to the old palaces inherited from the Sui Dynasty. The difference is that most of the original Luoyang Palace was destroyed by war, and the Luoyang Palace at this time was rebuilt on the original site.The decoration shows the scene of the Tang Dynasty even more. Whether it is the main hall of the front palace - Vientiane Shrine, or the main palace of the forbidden palace - Qianyuan Hall, they are all magnificent and magnificent, with gilded dragons everywhere, red walls and yellow tiles. , cornices and rows of corners, carved beams and painted buildings, and flowered lattice windows are really magical, grotesque, resplendent, majestic and majestic. There is only one question on my head that is circling from time to time-why is this audience in the Hall of Renxin?
As far as Li Xian knows, the Hall of Renxin is just an inconspicuous palace among the 36 halls of the Inner Forbidden City. They are far away, so it is really not a good place to meet them. In terms of reason, Gaozong and Empress Wu should not arrange a place to meet their sons who came from afar, unless there is some mystery in it, but why is this mystery? It made Li Xian a little hard to think, but, this question didn't last long in Li Xian's mind - when Li Xian saw the situation in the palace for the first time, the answer to the mystery was revealed.
