Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 455 You Really Know

In the room, Li Shimin was very angry at Xu Qing's words, but Xu Qing waved his hands and explained indifferently: "Oh, I think this makes sense, Your Highness, don't care about those details."

Li Shimin held his head from the pain in the wine, and pointed at Xu Qing with trembling fingers; "You, you, you, Xu Qing, you are the master of literati in the world, how can you think that such shameless words are justified, it is really immoral!"

Li Shimin was born in an aristocrat, and the education he received was the orthodox Confucianism and Taoism. His etiquette thought is Confucianism.Putting those words in Li Shimin's ears is like putting the old scholars of Ming and Qing Dynasties in the bathhouse of later generations.

"What Wenzong, I think this sentence makes sense, what can you do?"

"Zhuzi, hum, different ways don't conspire!" Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and was about to go out, but Xu Qing laughed in his heart, the master's plan has worked, I wish you could do this, ouch, Make me restless.However, Xu Qing still underestimated Qiangu Yidi himself, and saw that he didn't take a few steps, then turned around and said with a smile: "Xu Qing, your strategy of driving me away is not very clever, hahaha ..."

Seeing Li Shimin go back and come back, and his plan was exposed, Xu Qing couldn't help but sighed, but he still smiled and replied: "What did your highness say? I'm terrified. Your highness came to be a guest at my house. The house is full of luxuriant plants, and it is too late for the minister to pay his respects, so how could His Highness be willing to leave?"

"Hahaha, Xu Qing, do you know how many people in this world are crying and shouting to get close to me and serve me? You want to stay away from me..."

Xu Qing thought, all the women in Chang'an City who want to sleep in my Xu Qing's bed can be sent to Cangzhou from here, am I proud, swollen, and show off?Xu Qing replied coldly: "People in the world, even ordinary people, I don't want to be like them."

"Sure enough, you have high ambitions and don't go with ordinary people." Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "I will be a slut for another day, my head hurts too much. By the way, I will tell you something..."

Xu Qing shook his head, sighed, and ordered his servants to make soup to sober up.After taking a break, he drank Li Shimin and went to the small attic to watch the intermittent rain outside the door.

The sky was very overcast, Li Shimin pointed to the dark clouds in the sky that were constantly changing shapes and said: "Look at the clouds in the sky, you come and go, and the fight is so happy. Xu Qing, I tell you, this time I split my Shence Army to win the battle." Things, this king will never be caught without a fight. You are so smart, guess how I will fight back?"

Xu Qing was stunned, how could he guess this, but he thought about it, and remembered that after Li Jiancheng was killed, Li Shimin personally killed all the descendants of the prince and King Qi, even the babies in their infancy .From Li Shimin's point of view, doing this is nothing more than killing the grass and roots. As an emperor who wants to achieve long-term peace and stability, he must go through such a process of destroying humanity.

However, Xu Qing was Xu Qing, he couldn't think completely from Li Shimin's point of view, his point of view was his own point of view, if Li Chengdao and others were killed before their eyes, then Xu Qing would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.Therefore, Xu Qing said to Li Shimin: "His Royal Highness Qin Wang, although I don't know how you want to fight back against the crown prince, but I want to persuade you, God has the virtue of good life, please don't involve too much in Qin Wang."

"So what if the involvement is too wide? There will be no eggs under the nest!"

Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "King Qin knows that there is a saying in Buddhism that what you do today is what you see tomorrow. If you kill someone today, you may have made a bad start. Even if you Ascend to the throne and proclaim yourself emperor, and wait until you are old and weak, King Qin."

"This... hmph, you, you are just a woman's benevolence, and this king will not come to that time." Li Shimin said stubbornly, the emperor through the ages, how can he be convinced in a few words?Li Shimin glanced at Xu Qing playfully and said, "Since you don't want to guess by yourself, are you interested in hearing how this king fights back?"

Xu Qing immediately refused sternly. Xu Qing didn't want to be dragged into the water by Li Shimin. He was dragged into the water by Princess Pingyang a few days ago. These brothers and sisters are really alike.Huh?Isn't what I promised Princess Pingyang to do now?
"Hahaha, this king wants to tell you. Let me tell you, I have secretly collected a lot of good things to deal with him over the years. He cut down my troops, it must be an excuse for me to use the magical strategy for personal use, Doesn't he have something shameful in his own hands?"

"Shameful?" Xu Qing suddenly thought of one thing when he heard it. It was a time when he almost lost his crown prince.In the seventh year of Wude, Li Yuan went to the Renzhi Palace in the north to escape the summer heat, and asked Li Jiancheng to stay in Chang'an, and took Li Yuanji and Li Shimin to the north.At that time, there was a Gyeongju governor named Yang Wenqian. He was Li Jiancheng's best friend, and some private soldiers under him asked Li Jiancheng for some equipment.Li Jiancheng didn't think much about it, so he sent it there, but at this time, someone secretly told Li Yuan, who was going to escape from the summer heat, that Li Jiancheng planned to rebel.When the emperor was out and the crown prince supervised the country, he was already very sensitive, but this time it became serious. Li Yuan ordered Li Jiancheng to go to Renzhi Palace to clarify this matter, and at the same time sent someone to arrest Yang Wengan.

Yang Wengan and the prince didn't want to rebel at first, because at that time, the prince already had the upper hand and there was no need to rebel.And the person sent didn't know what was going on, but actually leaked the plan. Yang Wengan was also an idiot, and decisively reversed it.

That time, the crown prince had his head broken, and Li Yuan scolded him a lot, and Li Yuan almost abolished the position of crown prince that time.But after Li Yuan thought about it, he felt that this matter was strange, and someone told him that someone was trying to frame the prince.Besides King Qin, who else would frame the prince?
When Xu Qing thought of this, he almost guessed Li Shimin's counterattack plan.The prince raised private soldiers at the beginning, in fact, to cultivate his own strength in various places, so as not to cause rebellion in various places when he ascended the throne in the future.However, Li Yuan didn't nod at that time, so he was furious.Now it seems that the Yang Wengan incident was most likely planned by Qin Wang Li Shimin, and the result of his planning this incident was that Li Yuan distrusted him even more.

But Li Yuan is getting old. He doesn't like King Qin's scheming to harm his brother. If Li Jiancheng suddenly becomes a ruthless person and comes to harm his younger brother, won't the crown prince be in danger?Coupled with Li Shimin's knowledge of some shady things about Li Jiancheng... Ah, Li Shimin wants to repeat the old tricks!And it's a chain meter!

Commonly known as the Xuanwumen Change...

After thinking for a long time, Xu Qing returned: "I know King Qin's plan, but once King Qin uses one move, there is really no chance of turning around."

Li Shimin opened his mouth in surprise, and was speechless for a long time, before finally saying: "Did you really know my plan?" I mentally punched my stomach, and even Sun Wuji, the first chief adviser, didn't know. If Xu Qing knew, then, let's kill him to silence him.

Xu Qing would naturally not admit it: "No, no, no, how could I know His Highness's plan, I just remembered some stories. His Highness might use some poison or something to make outsiders think..."

"Shut up! Xu Qing, hello..." With a slap, Li Shimin smashed the bowl of hangover soup in his hand, looked at Xu Qing as if he had seen a ghost, and wanted to know how much he knew, but he was afraid that Xu Qing would His plan was told in full.

Seeing the situation, Xu Qing honestly stopped talking. If there was a fight, he would not be able to beat Li Shimin, but he was still scolding Li Shimin in his heart. Didn’t he just say it and let me guess? Now that he guessed right, he can’t say anything Out.It seems that Li Er's fool is really uncomfortable being scolded by Wei Zheng in the future.

After a long time, Li Shimin sat on Xu Qing's chair bald and said slowly: "How do you know about the poisoning?"

"Damn it, is it really the step of poisoning again?" Xu Qing was also frightened, this Li Shimin dared to bet his life.However, this gamble is indeed worth it. If you win, you will become the emperor.

Seeing Xu Qing's appearance like this, Li Shimin laughed dryly and said: "Xuan Pinghou is really good at joking, this king is also teasing you, don't take it to heart?"

Looking at Li Shimin's face, which was uglier than crying, Xu Qing had no choice but to go back: "His Royal Highness Qin said, I was indeed joking, His Royal Highness, Qin Wang, is also very humorous? Hahaha."

"Uh, humor? What do you mean by humor?"

"Ahem, this seems to be a word that is only found in later generations..." Xu Qing muttered to himself, and then explained: "Humor means speaking witty without losing its connotation."

"I've learned and learned, Mr. Xu is really knowledgeable and talented." Li Shimin's head no longer hurts, Xu Qing's study is like his crime scene, he can't wait to leave immediately, he cupped his hands and said: "Xu Qing, I'm busy with business. , let's go now..."

Xu Qing smiled politely and said, "Let's go first if you take you, I'll see you off."

Then, the two walked to the gate in silence. Xu Qing watched Li Shimin get on the horse and gallop away. When he was about to turn around and close the door, he saw Li Shimin go and return.

Did something fall?

Li Shimin galloped over, got off his horse in front of Xu Qing, and said coldly, "Apart from poisoning, what else do you know?"

Xu Qingxin scolded herself for being cheap, and broke Li Shimin's plan. When she didn't know how to reply, Li Shimin called out someone's name: "Yang Wengan!"

Xu Qing suddenly showed surprise.

"You sure know!"

After leaving a word, Li Shimin turned his horse around and left.

Xu Qing went back to the house and sat down before drinking a cup of tea when a servant came to report again: "Master, Mr. Pei Ji is here, and Mr. Zhan is here."
