Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 341: The intention is hard to fathom

Views:

Li Hong was very puzzled. Yang Wu hadn't come back yet. Why did Long Ma know everything about Qujiang Pool? She even knew how many silver notes and gold leaves Yang Wu had on him. Clearly.

The chatterbox was holding a new teddy bear in one hand, imitating Wu Mei's scolding Li Hong, scolding the teddy bear beside him. When Li Hong knew that the chatterbox Li Lingyue named the teddy bear in his hand "little bastard" At that moment, he picked up Li Lingyue and was about to throw her out. Wu Mei, who was scolding angrily, gave her a few more feather dusters before Li Hong gave up.

After Yang Wu came back, Wu Mei didn't ask for any of the silver notes, and all the gold leaves were confiscated by Wu Mei on the grounds that she wanted a pair of bracelets for herself and Li Lingyue.

Li Hong had no choice but to roll his eyes helplessly and followed Wu Mei obediently to his study room on the second floor. Li Lingyue was very obedient at this time and stayed down below to play with a few palace maids.

Wu Mei sat comfortably behind the large desk, flipping through this book and reading the essays, and said lightly: "Li Hong, Li Hong, you really know how to enjoy it. Your father's study doesn't even look like you." This study looks comfortable, you are really respectful."

"My son mentioned it to my father a few days ago. He just didn't like it." As soon as Li Hong sat down across from Wu Mei, Wu Mei glared at him. He had to stand up with a smile and looked at Li Hong who was still rummaging through the boxes. Dragon mother.

It is really impossible to connect the woman in front of me with the only female emperor in history. Now that she has come to her study, instead of talking about business, she is just flipping through it randomly, without any respect for other people's privacy.

"Are you attending the poetry meeting today simply because of Pei Xingjian's daughter?" Wu Mei asked calmly as if nothing had happened, still flipping through some documents on the table.

"Yes, I have nothing to do today. I just happened to catch up and went there. I am not familiar with all the people in Chang'an City. I have been in Anxi for more than four years. I finally came back, so I just took a look. , not to mention that as the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, it is also my duty to understand the people's sentiments..."

"Young master, you feel aggrieved for four years in Anxi. What's the matter? It's a pity that you spent your best years in Anxi? Didn't your father give you a small discount? Didn't you always ignore it? You will not accept military orders from abroad. I've been languishing in the Western Region, and now it's aggrieved to talk about it every day?" Wu Mei glanced at him and said lazily.

"Mother, if you have any questions, just say it directly. It is easy to misunderstand if you keep guessing like this." As soon as Li Hong saw Long Ma's expression, he knew that he had something to ask of him, but it was by no means a big deal.

"Before you came back, Wu Sansi came to see me..."

"He knows Lu Ao?" Li Hong frowned.

"We must know each other. I left him and Wu Chengsi in Chang'an, thinking of finding a job for them. I haven't found a job for a while..."

"It's easy to handle. Let his two brothers accompany Helan Minyue. There is a shortage of manpower there..."

"Can you please give me some peace of mind! Wu Chengsi has gone with Wu Sansi. Is there anyone in the Wu family left in this palace? How should these people talk about your mother? You are an unfilial son and you don't know how to think about your mother. ?" Wu Mei grabbed a writing brush and threw it at Li Hong.

Helan Minyue is still keeping vigil for Mrs. Rongguo. This is already an open secret of the royal family. As the past few months have passed, both Wu Mei and Li Zhi have accepted the results of Li Hong's original treatment.

Now hearing Li Hong's irresponsible words, the anger in his heart was suddenly ignited.

"Don't be angry. What do you mean?" Li Hong quickly took two steps, grabbed Long Ma's hand, grabbed the other brush and asked.

"You are not familiar with the four major flower houses, but Wu Sansi is familiar with them. He and Lu Ao are good friends, so I asked this palace to let Lu Ao go. What do you mean?" Wu Meifeng asked with a wise light in her eyes. .

Li Hong smiled and nodded, lowered his head and said, "Er Chen had no intention of touching the Lu and Zheng families so quickly. Er Chen knows the powerful relationship between them."

"That's good. In that case, please arrange some decent official positions for Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi. Don't let them mess around in Chang'an anymore." Wu Mei stood up and looked at the six ministers and said.

"This... they are not... now."

"It's settled, you will have to follow the arrangements tomorrow and not leave Chang'an." Wu Mei didn't allow Li Hong to say any more, opened the door and walked out.

Li Hong's mind was spinning rapidly as he followed Wu Mei downstairs: This is by no means just a simple matter of arranging the two of them. The mothers of Lu and Zheng are supporting them. She should believe that she will not He acted too hastily against the Lu and Zheng families.

As for why Wu Sansi and Lu Ao are good friends, this is nonsense. If Lu Ao committed a crime, even ten Wu Sansi's pleas would be useless. Therefore, Li Hong was a little confused as to why his mother did this. Son!

The most important thing is that Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi have always known that they are not welcome by him, so they basically will not appear in front of him. During the few years he has been in Anxi, these two guys have become very close to Li Xian.

Moreover, these two people in history have always been flattering and flattering people. Historically, after Wu Mei came to the throne, she often flattered her male favorite Xue Huaiyi. When Xue Huaiyi went out, one of them would lead his horse and the other He held the saddle for him and was extremely respectful.

After Xue Huaiyi's death, the two once again shifted their targets to their male favorites Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi, still flattering them for profit.

As for Li Xian, he was also the target of the two men's beards, but what Li Hong didn't expect was that these two people, no matter whether it was Xue Huaiyi's death or the fact that Li Xian and Wu Mei failed in their struggle for power and were demoted in history, these two people could still Be unscathed and nothing will matter.

Therefore, I have to say that these two people still have a certain strategy. It is just because they were not reused at the beginning, so they need to flatter and flatter them. Now the queen mother has given them to her. Why on earth is this

Reuse? How can it be! If it was reused, the queen mother would not tell her, but her father.

The little chatterbox wanted to sleep with Li Hong in the East Palace and didn't want to go back to the Daming Palace behind her. Wu Mei couldn't do anything to her. She originally wanted to leave her here, but Li Hong obviously didn't want her to stay. But look Looking at the tearful and pitiful eyes of the pink and jade little man, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Li Lingyue, I admire you."

"Yeah!" Li Lingyue heard Li Hong's words and immediately shouted in joy. Although she didn't know what "yeah" meant, it was like this every time the imperial brother was happy. You can't go wrong if you learn a little.

After sending Wu Mei back to Li Zhengdian, Li Hong hugged the excited chatterbox. The chatterbox insisted on asking Li Hong to help her tell the story of the White Snake in Qujiangchi today. He pointed at Bai Chun and said she looked like Bai Suzhen. Li Hong is Xu Xian.

Li Hong, who couldn't stand the chatterbox, had to ask someone to bring him a pen and paper. While listening to Lian Tie's report, he wrote a few lines on the paper for Li Lingyue and told him when he had recited it. Every word was After reading it clearly, I would tell her a story.

Li Lingyue held the paper marked with pinyin symbols by Bai Chun, and read seriously with her tongue tied: "The pole is wide and the bench is long. I want to tie the pole to the bench, but the bench does not allow the pole to be tied to the bench. So I want to tie the pole to the bench." But the bench refused to allow the pole to be tied to that bench. Is the pole wider or the bench longer? The elder brother and the younger brother sat in front of a slope. There was a goose lying on the slope. There was a river flowing down the slope. The elder brother said it was a wide river, but the younger brother said it was in vain. The geese have to cross the river, and the river has to cross the geese. I don’t know whether the geese cross the river or the river crosses the geese.”

Seeing the talkative little boy's tongue-tied expression with a serious face, trying hard to read the words well, Li Hong couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that in history, whether it is Li Lingyue or Shangguan Wan'er, it makes sense that people are extremely smart. Ah, look at how serious people are about new things. Even in the previous life, it was not something that several children of the same age could compare to.

"Your Highness, Belus sent a note to the Ministry of Rites today, but he also sent a note to Honglu Temple. As for whether they have the same content, I don't know." Shang Tie stood aside and said respectfully. said.

"It's already Nian Gen. What does Belus want to do now? What kind of trouble is this between him and Honglu Temple?" Li Hong asked.

All those originally given to the Ministry of Rites were suppressed by his authority. None of them were reported to Zhongshu Province. Even the notes that Belus gave to Jingzhao Mansion were placed in his study, and none of them were planned to be reported. Go up.

As for the content of the excerpt, it is no wonder that he wanted the Tang Dynasty to restore the country. Seeing that the Tang Dynasty now had strong troops in Anxi, and there was Tubo, a supply place for soldiers who could recruit and fight, he was even more determined to ask the Tang Dynasty for help. Tang Dynasty was determined to restore the country.

Now it seems that knowing that it will not work in Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Rites, it seems that a two-pronged approach is needed, and the touch is beginning to extend to Honglu Temple. The functions of Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites now overlap, and there is no complete division. Opening it naturally gave Belus the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.

Today, unlike the trajectory in history, the Tang Dynasty is weak due to the control of Tubo and cannot be distracted from its restoration and further expands the influence of the Tang Dynasty to the west.

Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is still making small fuss except for Liaodong, but the Six Moves are starting to get a little ready. At this time, Belus clearly understands the current situation of the Tang Dynasty and gave up asking the Tang Dynasty to build a Persian temple for him. The plan was changed to wanting Datang to help him regain his country.

In the court hall, Cui Dunli, the minister of Honglu Temple, who had finished paying for Belusi, bowed to Li Zhi, then glanced at Li Hong, and then slowly retreated to the ranks of officials.

When asked whether Li Hong, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, had received a message from Prince Belus of Persia, Li Hong shook his head like a rattle and firmly denied that he had not.

Li Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned his eyes to Zhang Jianzhi from the Ministry of Rites. After just one glance at Zhang Jianzhi, Li Zhi lost interest in questioning.

Who doesn't know that this card was used by Li Hong himself after Dai Zhide? Is there any difference between asking him and asking Li Hong
