"Father..."
Li Yuanchang hurriedly wanted to argue a few more words, but Li Zexuan "made up for it" at the right time. He took a step forward, cupped his hands, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, what I am going to say next is related to the life and death of His Royal Highness Prince Lu. I also hope that the Emperor Huang Ping will retreat!"
As soon as he said this, everyone in the courtyard changed their minds. Li Yuanchang was so frightened that his face turned pale!
Li Yuan stared intently into Li Zexuan's eyes. After a while, he waved his hand and said, "Everyone, step back~!"
The guards looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally put away their weapons and exited the courtyard.
Li Yuanchang was no longer as arrogant as before and retreated with the guards.
Suddenly, only Li Zexuan and Li Yuan were left in the courtyard!
"Boy! You are very courageous! If you had been born more than ten years earlier, you would definitely have a place in this world, and even Erlang might not be able to compare with you!"
Li Yuan looked at Li Zexuan and said with a complicated expression.
It was not that he was deliberately flattering, but that in the confrontation just now, Li Zexuan resolved the fatal crisis in the blink of an eye, and the personal bravery and strategy displayed in it made him very impressed!
It’s not scary if a person is brave in vain. What’s scary is that he is brave and resourceful! In troubled times, this kind of person is definitely qualified to become a hero!
Li Zexuan was shocked and asked, old man, do you have any bad character? Do you want to kill me by saying this
This bad old man is very bad~!
Li Zexuan gave Li Yuan such a label in his heart!
"Your Majesty's words are wrong! If I had such a lazy temperament, if I had been born more than ten years earlier, I would definitely not be alive now! Only in today's peaceful and prosperous age can I have a place to display my talents~!"
Li Zexuan cursed in his heart, and then he quickly stepped forward and said.
Regardless of whether there are ears and eyes around him, and regardless of whether Li Yuan's words were deliberately testing, he must have the right basic political stance.
Li Yuan shook his head and did not argue with Li Zexuan on this matter. He said in a deep voice: "Boy! Just now you said you had something to discuss with me, and it was related to Yuan Chang's life and death. Now I have withdrawn from you. Hurry up. Tell me! If I find out that you are lying to me, I will have you dragged down, chopped up and fed to the dogs~!"
Li Zexuan smiled calmly, and then said: "Your Majesty, have you heard the story of Wu Jiang Zongzi?"
When Li Yuan heard this, his expression suddenly changed. Li Zexuan's words touched the scar in his heart that had never healed!
Li Zexuan ignored him and continued: "During the Spring and Autumn Period, Gongshu Duan, the second son of Duke Wu of Zheng, and his mother Wu Jiang had difficulty in giving birth to a son, so she hated the birth of her eldest son Ji Huansheng. She repeatedly asked Gongshu Duan of Duke Wu of Zheng to be the crown prince, but Duke Wu did not agree. .After Zheng Wugong died, his eldest son Ji Huansheng ascended the throne as Zheng Zhuanggong.
Two years later, Wu Jiang requested that Beijing be granted to Gongshu Duan. After receiving permission, Gongshu Duan was able to live in Beijing and expand his private power wantonly. Soon, Gongshu Duan ordered the western and northern border areas of Zheng to be under his command at the same time. Lu, the son of Dr. Zheng, told Duke Zheng Zhuang that ministers of a country cannot obey orders from both sides. If Duke Zhuang intends to give way to Gong Shu Duan, then he should serve him; otherwise, he should be removed and the people should not have other ideas.
Due to his mother's doting on his younger brother, Zheng Zhuanggong still did not interfere. Gongshu Duan became more unscrupulous and took over the two lands as his own fief, and the area he controlled expanded to Linyan.
In May of the 49th year of King Ping of Zhou Dynasty, Gongshu Duan renovated the city, accumulated food, repaired equipment and weapons, and replenished infantry chariots, preparing to attack the capital of Zheng. He also contacted Wu Jiang in the capital as an internal response and asked him to open the city gate at that time.
When Duke Zhuang of Zheng heard that Duan, his uncle, was planning to launch an army, he ordered Lu, the son of Duke Zheng, to lead two hundred chariots to attack the city of Jingyi. Duan Gongshu was defeated and fled to Yan. Duke Zhuang of Zheng led his troops to pursue him and won a great victory. After that, Gongshu Duan fled and lived in Gongyi. Duke Zhuang sent out troops to pursue him, and finally Gongshu Duan was cornered and forced to commit suicide! "
quiet!
After Li Zexuan finished speaking, the courtyard suddenly fell into a strange silence. Li Yuan looked at him steadily, and his eyes also looked at Li Yuan without blinking!
His purpose in telling this story was to tell Li Yuan that his excessive doting on Li Yuanchang was only pushing him step by step towards the edge of the abyss of death! One day, after Li Yuan drives Hexi and can no longer protect Li Yuanchang, if Li Yuanchang is still so "jumping" and likes to cause trouble everywhere, then he, Li Yuanchang, will be the next Gongshu Duan!
This is by no means alarmist. In history, Li Yuanchang was a little forgetful and lost his awe because of Li Yuan's excessive pampering during his lifetime. As a result, in the 17th year of Zhenguan, he proposed with Du He, Zhao Jie, Li Anyan and others. Prince Li Chengqian rebelled. He Qian Chengji reported the prince's rebellion, and Li Yuanchang, Du He, and Hou Junji were all beheaded for the crime of rebellion~!
"Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang! Save someone under the knife!"
At this moment, a clear and melodious female voice, like the cry of an oriole, broke the silence. Chang Le, wearing a thick fur coat, was seen running towards this side quickly, followed by Li Tai, Li Ke and Li Chengqian!
"Ouch~!"
However, when Chang Le was about to run up to the two of them, he accidentally tripped over a raised stone brick on the ground, and his whole body was about to hit the bluestone in front of him!
"Princess, be careful!"
In the blink of an eye, Li Zexuan arrived in front of Chang Le and firmly grasped the latter's shoulder with one hand to prevent him from falling.
"Brother Xiaoxuan, are you okay? That's great!"
Changle took a few quick breaths, turned to look at Li Zexuan, and said happily.
Li Zexuan frowned, because he felt that Changle's current aura was very disordered. Thinking of the little girl running all the way from Changle Palace in this winter, his expression changed and he said quickly: "Changle, don't talk! Be quiet!" Concentrate your energy and breathe steadily~!”
It's okay not to say it, but after saying this, Chang Le's face suddenly turned pale. She arched her body, covered her chest, coughed violently, and then said with a painful look on her face: "Cough cough cough~! Xiaoxuan... .Brother... Changle... Changle's chest feels so tight, Huh~! Huh~! Huh~!"
After talking about it, her breathing became shorter and shorter and faster!
"Changle! Changle! What's wrong with you?"
At this time, Li Yuan also rushed over quickly. He looked at the pale Chang Le and said anxiously.
Li Chengqian and Li Tai caught up to him at this moment, and they said anxiously: "Chang Le is angry! Someone is here! Call the doctor!"
How could Li Zexuan care about the relationship between men and women at this time? Besides, Chang Le was just a little girl, and he never had that kind of thought. At the critical moment, he lifted Chang Le up from the ground with a cross hug, and said urgently to Li Yuan: "Your Majesty, where can I find a warm room? Chang Le is now Don’t breathe in the cold air, otherwise your life will be at risk!”
Li Yuan had always loved Chang Le very much. When he heard Li Zexuan's words, his calm face became a little panicked. He pointed at the palace to the north, and while running, he shouted at Li Zexuan: "Quick! Come with me!" My bedroom has heating~!"
