Looking at Li Zhe's leaving figure, Li Xian found that Li Zhe was becoming more and more assertive and elusive. What did he mean by today's words? Has this guy's position completely changed
Li Zhe did not meet Fang Xianzhong who came. Fang Xianzhong always liked to go through the back door. When Li Xian saw him, he was slightly shocked. Why did he come here at this time
After all, as the father-in-law of his own King Pei, he was getting married in a few days. He came over in a hurry. Was there something important
"Master Fang, please go to the study. I will go there immediately." Li Xian turned to the eunuch next to him and said.
Watching the eunuch leading him, muttering in his mouth and gesticulating with his hands, walking quickly towards the study, Li Xian's heart seemed to be led forward together.
He casually looked at other places being decorated in the palace, and then hurriedly walked into the study room where Li Hong had been.
When entering the study, Fang Xianzhong did not sit there waiting for him. Instead, he kept walking back and forth on the newly replaced thick and soft Persian carpet, with a rather anxious and solemn expression.
Li Xian walked into the study silently, and happened to bump into Fang Xianzhong who turned around. The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.
"What's wrong?" Li Xian asked, and then motioned Fang Xianzhong to sit down and talk.
Fang Xianzhong shook his head silently, and then said: "The rumors in Chang'an are obviously controlled by someone secretly. They are overwhelming. Now, at the beginning, they were just rumors in a few shops in Dongshi. These are not many. The sky has begun to expand. If this continues, within a few days, it will spread throughout Chang'an City. "
"Remember not to let your father and mother know. Whether it is true or not, you cannot let them know. It must be done after the wedding. Although Li Hong has overcome many obstacles along the way, the incident in Yangzhou was expected by him. Solve it, but no matter what, he will not be able to escape his involvement in the death of King Cao and others. As long as I get married smoothly and let the news out that the death of King Cao and others was caused by Li Hong, I think, with my father’s generosity A benevolent mind will definitely become furious and even depose Li Hong from his position as crown prince..." Li Xian calmed down his mind. The plan now is that as long as he does not mess up and stabilizes his subordinates, everything can be turned around. Opportunity.
Even if those rumors can't be stopped, they won't be a problem. When the late emperor launched the Xuanwu Gate Revolution, wasn't it also that the public was filled with all kinds of rumors
Those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters and should not care about nonsense.
"I'm afraid it won't work anymore. It seems that the rumors in Chang'an City are no longer under our control. No, as soon as the rumors that were unfavorable to you appeared, I thought about the fact that His Highness the Crown Prince was the mastermind of the murder of King Cao and others. Son, take this opportunity to spread the word. This kind of topic should be a topic for people to talk about after dinner, but it has little effect. Now there are all the rumors that are not good for you. I am afraid that we have lost power." Mr. Fang. Zhong was restless, standing up for a while and spreading his hands to talk to Li Xian, and then sat down again and shook his head and sighed.
He knew that his life was completely tied to this battle. If he succeeded, he would worship the prime minister, if he failed, he would die. There was no way out.
Last year, His Majesty and the Queen, for the sake of being King Pei's father-in-law, vetoed Li Hong's punishment at the court and kept their positions as ministers of the Ministry of Industry. However, if the prince arrests him again this time, If you don't have the handle, it will be difficult for anyone to ask for mercy.
Hearing Fang Xianzhong's complaint, Li Xian's heart became calmer and calmer at the moment, and the last words Li Zhe said when he left just now appeared in his mind: "Bai Chun is back."
This sentence kept buzzing in his mind at this moment, as if it was reminding him of something.
"Could it be that bitch Bai Chun! She has the secret agent Jingwei in her hands. Could it be that she did everything in Chang'an?" Li Xian looked at Fang Xianzhong with a solemn expression and asked.
"What? Bai Chun has returned to Chang'an? What about Prince Li Hong? Is he back too?" Fang Xianzhong's first reaction was that Prince Li Hong had returned to Chang'an, but he had never heard of it. It was so big. Logically speaking, this is news that I can easily hear without asking.
"Well, what Lao Seven said when he came just now doesn't seem to be false, but I still don't know if Lao Wu has come back. Where are the people we sent out? Is there no news at all?" Li Xian looked at Mr. Fang. Zhong looked like his heart had sunk to the bottom.
"It's been three days and there's been no news. It seems like they all disappeared on the official road from Chang'an to Luoyang for no reason." Fang Xianzhong shook his head in distress.
Now he felt like he was being caught in a net, like a fish in the net, struggling desperately in the tightened net.
"If Bai Chun comes back, Lao Wu shouldn't be far away. Come to think of it, it's impossible for Bai Chun to come back in just one or two days. Why did Lao Qi choose this time to tell me?" Li Xian also stood up from the chair. , looking through the gauze-like curtains at the brightly decorated palace outside, the busy figures murmured to themselves.
"I always have a feeling that Chang'an is now being secretly controlled by someone. I feel... everything that happens in Chang'an seems to be premeditated." Fang Xianzhong was already in a panic at this time, and the paranoia of being persecuted had begun to spread. Breeding in my heart.
This helpless state that can only occur when people are desperate has begun to spread to him and spread to more people.
Li Xian rubbed his hands tightly to prevent his ten fingers from being too stiff. He comforted Fang Xianzhong and said, "Well, just in case, you immediately send someone to Yunzhong secretly. You must send the most reliable person." His confidants, let them... But now there is no information about Lao Wu. If they are rashly allowed to go quietly to the vicinity of Chang'an, it may have a counterproductive effect." Li Xian also began to feel conflicted and entangled in his heart.
The entire situation in Chang'an City should have been firmly under control, but at some point, it seemed that it was no longer under his control.
"Your Highness, do you want to...?" Fang Xianzhong felt that his breathing had become a little difficult. This was a rebellion. If the Yunzhong Protectorate was mobilized, it would be the same as rebellion.
Li Xian was pacing back and forth, lowering his head and saying nothing. At this moment, he had not prepared for the worst, but the situation seemed to be forcing him to go in the worst direction.
"Bai Chun has returned to Chang'an. Others in the East Palace have not returned. Prince Ji and other royal family members are now gathered in Chang'an. If we prepare for the worst, there is no guarantee of success! As long as the Yunzhong Protectorate can... God knows Unconsciously, they mobilized around Chang'an, waiting for my wedding day, and took advantage of the loose defense of Chang'an City to capture Chang'an in one fell swoop and control all the royal relatives. In this way, I won't have to worry about succeeding in my great cause! "Li Xian! He clenched his fists and said coldly.
"But... what if it doesn't work? We have no way out, and there is an abyss behind us." Fang Xianzhong felt that every part of his body was trembling, let alone doing it, just thinking about it now, he felt I was so scared that I had the idea of just being in a coma for a few days.
"So our first goal now is to determine Li Hong's location and determine whether he... will rush back to Chang'an before my wedding! The next step is how to get rid of the mysterious Jingwei in Bai Chun's hands... Is this Jingwei a human being or a yamen? As long as we control Bai Chun, we can dismantle the mysterious Jingwei? It's not impossible!" Li Xian's expression became cold and full of ambition!
At this moment, under the pressure of the situation, Li Xian already had the intention to give it a try. In front of his eyes, it seemed that he had put on a dragon robe and accepted the congratulations of the ministers.
But there is a prerequisite for all this, which is the uncertain factor of Li Hong, the fifth child who hides in the dark and refuses to come out. Where is he? Will he rush back to Chang'an on his wedding day
Or is it that what he wants is for a mantis to catch the cicada and the oriole to follow after he leads the troops to conquer Chang'an? So you can reap the benefits
Therefore, now that he has figured out everything about Li Hong and controlled Bai Chun, more than half of his grandest plan will be completed.
The next step is to control the royal family members, including the father, mother, queen, etc., on their wedding day, forcing them to perform the act of Zen!
"But what if Prince Li Hong doesn't show up on your wedding day? When you conquer Chang'an, he will attack from behind with the Chang'an guards. Then we will..." Fang Xianzhong also didn't think so. I felt how terrifying this plan was. After Li Xian described it, I seemed to see the first powerful king of a different surname in the Tang Dynasty, waving to him.
It seemed as if I could see myself below one person and above ten thousand people, standing in the court with high spirits and giving guidance to the country, facing it calmly, and accepting the courtiers calling me king.
"Not so much. But when the emperor's grandfather launched the Xuanwu Gate Rebellion, how much did he have to do with the right time, place, people, and people? He was not a prince, so the emperor's great-grandfather supported Li Jiancheng, right? But in the end, the one who occupied the country and ascended the throne of God, Isn't he still the emperor's great-grandfather? Hehe, after I ascend the throne, I can also give him the title of Prince Yin, so as to silence the world. The late emperor can do it, so why can't I do it? Why can't I, Li Xian, ascend to the throne of God and show off my power in the Tang Dynasty? Even if it is not suitable for me, Li Xian, I must make it suitable for me, Li Xian!" Li Xian opened the veil! Through the bright glass, through the bright glass, he looked at all the people in the palace who were busy taking care of everything for him. It seemed as if he was already standing on the Hanyuan Hall of the Daming Palace, worshiping heaven. Salute and prepare to ascend the throne.
