Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Four hundred and twenty-four Jiangnan scholars


The content of the memorial is very simple. The deaths of He Lan Minyue and Liang Wang Lizhong are now known to the court, and a force in the court surging under the current, faintly pointed the murderer's spear directly at Li Hong. ???? August 1 Chinese W ㈧ W ㈠ W ㈧. ?8㈠1㈠Z?W. COM

After discussing secretly, they asked Li Hong to approve their counterattack, and hoped that Li Hong would allow them to target Pei Wang Li Xian.

After reading the memorial briefly, Li Hong stretched out his hand and handed it to the cheetah again, and said lightly: "Burn it."

Li Hong, the cheetah, took the memorial behind him, took out his regular fire-folding paper, and lit the memorial neatly. After all the memorials were turned into ashes and scattered among the flowers in the garden, he respectfully asked: "Your Highness , Do you need to give them an order? The servants obey the instructions."

Li Hong sighed and said thoughtfully: "No, the battle between the courtiers will only become more complicated, and the future situation will be even more difficult to control."

He has always had a doubt in his mind, how did Li Xian and Li Zhong come together? The two have not met for many years. Could it be that they have established such a firm trust through letters? Even sacrificing his life to fight for the initiative for Li Xian?

Li Zhong is not stupid, he has not weighed the pros and cons? Why would he do this? Even if Li Xian becomes the prince, isn't he still a prince? Can it still fly to the sky?

In the struggle between Li Zhong and himself, there are the shadows of Jinyang Wangs and other aristocratic families.

Could it be said that Li Zhong was willing to sacrifice himself because he was persecuted by Jinyang Wang Clan? Because it was no longer useful, the Jinyang Wang clan needed a powerful and respectable prince to fight against him for their status, so they chose Li Xian?

If this is the case, it can be said, but is it really Li Xian? Are you sure it is Lee Hyun?

The most lacking thing in Li Hong's hands is the evidence. Bai Chun's prodigal wife has not given good news these days, and every day he doesn't know what he is up to!

"Your Majesty, courageous servant..."

"No need to say, no need to reply, just watch the changes." Li Hong frowned and said in a low tone.

Just when Li Hong thought of Bai Chun, Bai Chun was swaying through the back garden of the Daming Palace. The queen ordered her to summon her and chose to stay in the small palace of Concubine Xiao Shu. This made Bai Chun It's weird to arrive.

After looking at the court ladies and eunuchs at the Nine Immortals Gate, and the empress’s honor guard, Bai Chun’s worries were completely removed.

After Wang Lou whispered a few words, he informed Bai Chun that the Queen and Xiao Clan were in the courtyard, and asked her to enter immediately.

Wu Mei and Concubine Xiao Shu are still sitting under the grape trellis. When Bai Chun came in, they saw two beautiful women smiling like flowers at first glance. If it were not for the history between the two years ago, it would be hard to believe , The two people in front of them are the current Empress of Tang Dynasty, and Concubine Xiao Shu who fought with her in the harem.

Wu Mei wears a dress with Confucian sleeves, which sets off her tall and plump figure. Coupled with the frost and polish of the years, the charm and beauty of mature women are undoubtedly revealed. The graceful, majestic, heroic demeanor, snow-white jade-like delicate cheeks, and piercing bright phoenix eyes, fully interpret the beauty and charm that a woman has dreamed of for a lifetime.

It is that when Bai Chun, who is also a woman, faced the queen, he couldn't help but want to look more. This queen who can control all kinds of beauty completely easily.

Although Concubine Xiao Shu on the side is in a navy blue Taoist gown, and the bun is also simply a bun with a wooden hairpin, but her slender eyes that see through the red dust are also white and beautiful as jade. , Coupled with the well-fitting robe, the contour of Concubine Xiao Shu's figure is also perfectly outlined, which should be thin and convex.

Two people sitting quietly under the grape trellis, they are completely two different beautiful women, each with its own merits, in exchange for any mature man in front of the two women, I am afraid that they have long been attracted by the demeanor of the two women, standing aside Up.

"Bai Chun has seen the queen, met...Sister Xiao." Bai Chun was stunned, but fortunately he reacted quickly. Facing this former concubine who had always been a commoner, he almost couldn't find a suitable name.

Wu Mei sat there motionless, the queen's prestige was just right by her, she just nodded at Bai Chun with a faint smile, even if she had said hello.

Concubine Xiao Shu stood up and saluted Bai Chun. When Li Hong came over, she would occasionally bring Bai Chun with her, so she was indifferent to the expression in front of her. Her tall figure was lined with a white dress, which always gave people a kind of cloud. A woman who is light and indifferent is not unfamiliar.

"What did your master tell you before he left?" Wu Mei asked with a faint smile on her face.

Bai Chun looked at Concubine Xiao Shu hesitantly after hearing Wu Mei's question, wondering if she should tell her in front of Concubine Xiao Shu.

"Let’s say, there is no outsider here, and you are not unfamiliar with her, do you know the relationship between Li Hong and her?" Wu Mei glanced at Concubine Xiao Shu, and Concubine Xiao Shu also smiled just in time. With Wu Mei, the eyes of the two women crossed. Although there was no spark, they could still vaguely feel a natural hostile state.

Listening to Wu Mei’s words, Bai Chun felt a lot more relaxed, and said respectfully: “When he returned to the queen, when his Highness left, he just told the other courtiers of the East Palace to abide by their duties and ignore the rumors from the outside world. Qing."

Wu Mei smiled but looked at Concubine Xiao Shu again: "What about you? Didn't tell you anything?"

"There are some, check the accounts of Taiyi City and King Liang over the years, including some horizontal accounts, between King Liang and other places, but there has been no gain yet." Bai Chun's face remained unchanged, originally. That's it, but it seems that there are experts who are doing the accounting for them. I found out that I haven't found any clues.

Concubine Xiao Shu has been quietly listening to Bai Chun and Wu Mei's exchanges. She didn't say a word from beginning to end. After the two fell into a short silence, Concubine Xiao Shu said indifferently: "You might as well After the investigation of the water transport, if you can’t find it in the north, you might as well try the south. The court has always valued Jiangnan scholars. After the death of the Jin Dynasty, most of the clans moved to the south, until the former Sui Dynasty and even after the Great Tang ruled the world. This clan that originally fled to the south has already laid a foundation and spread its branches and leaves in the south. Although these years have been due to the grants of Chang'an, Luoyang and other places and the stability of our Datang, many scholars in the south have started I ran to this side, but... I'm afraid they haven't relaxed yet, right?"

Wu Mei's eyebrows frowned, but she also had to admire that Xiao Clan was still able to maintain such a keen sense of touch in the cold palace, and she seemed to be no less clever than herself.

What's more, from the beginning of the investigation of water transportation, the Ministry of Engineering must be checked. Who is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Engineering? Fang Xianzhong, who is Fang Xianzhong? That is the house where she intends to be Princess Li Xianna.

Checking from here, no matter what, it is definitely a good breakthrough. Even if it is not found that Li Xian was related to the murder of Li Zhong and the falsehood of Li Hong, but at least I can find out. How much money did Xian embezzle from the Ministry of Engineering.

In the years when Li Hong was not in Chang'an, Li Xian himself was faintly rumorsed that he would be made a prince, and it was because Li Hong was absent that one less person suppressed him, and the current appearance of the Palace of Pei It looks inconspicuous, but the level of architecture and decoration is definitely no less than the Eastern Palace.

Even, for more garden buildings, Li Xian copied many styles in the south. The original explanation was that because of the limitation of the size of the palace, in order to be able to build the palace as luxurious, exquisite and perfect as possible , But used a lot of Jiangnan craftsmen.

Although all of this was done on the bright side, they were all approved by His Majesty, because his annotation to "Han Shu" was praised and rewarded by Li Zhi, and compared with Li Hong Li Xian had to perform a lot better in etiquette, manners, etc. At that time, he was naturally favored by Li Zhi, so the palace was built against the system, and no one took it seriously.

But now, because of the dirty water on Li Hong's body, regardless of whether Li Xian did it or not, but Li Hong wants to keep the seat of the Prince of the East Palace, he must be prepared with both hands.

Regardless of whether Li Zhong’s death was designed by Li Xian, whether it was to slander Li Hong, or whether he intended to fight for the crown prince, then Li Xian must be pulled into the water so that he could be in the hands of the officials, the emperor, and the queen. The situation where the two evils are the lesser of the two evils.

In this way, Li Hong will be able to buy more time and opportunities to keep his position as prince, while suppressing other people who are competing for the position of prince.

But anyway, in this way, Li Xian is unavoidable and will be implicated because of the dirty water on Li Hong.

Although there is a slight difference between Wu Mei and Xiao Shu's thoughts, the basic strategy is the same, which is to make the ministers and your majesty fall into a situation where it is difficult for both sides to make a decision.

"Yes, thank you Sister Xiao, the slave and maid will go back to make arrangements and try to be as unconscious as possible." Baichun saluted sincerely.

"Not only that~IndoMTL.com~Remember, tell the few people under Li Hong's school not to act rashly, and don't lose weight because of small things. If you ask, just say that the palace let you pass the message, take this Right." Wu Mei squeezed a piece of Feng Pei with her slender fingers as white as jade and said lightly.

"Yes, the servant girl, remember, the servant girl thanked the queen." Bai Chun saluted Wu Mei again.

Wu Mei and Concubine Xiao Shu both watched Bai Chun's back leaving together. Wu Mei still had a faint smile on her face, while Concubine Xiao Shu's expression became a little cold: "I don't know the queen is still What's your order?"

Wu Mei straightened up, stretched out lazily, and suddenly the full elastic curve of her upper body was completely revealed: "For the time being, that's it. By the way, you are in the palace these years, it seems that the Lanling Xiao family has Many people have been mastered by you. Let them be smarter and don’t stand on the wrong team."

Concubine Xiao Shu also sighed: "The queen is really a wise martial artist. It seems that nothing can escape your eyes and eyes. I will do whatever I can. But..."

"But you really want to know that Li Hong and Li Xian were both born in this palace. Why did they do their best to help Li Hong clear the suspicion at this moment, and even drag Li Xian into the water?" Said the question in my mind.
