Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: One hundred and twenty-four comfort
The emperor and empress only stayed in Zongsheng Palace for one night, and early the next morning, they took Prince Li Hong down the mountain and returned to the royal manor in Taiyi City.
Li Hong's resolute attitude on the issue of Bai Chun along the way made Li Zhi and Wu Mei helpless. The assassination seemed to cast a shadow on the three of them.
The weather in Taiyi City was gloomy, but there was no sign of rain. Li Zhi led Li Hong and walked slowly in the garden of the manor.
"Sometimes it doesn’t necessarily mean it rains on cloudy days, just like showers sometimes appear on sunny days. So, there are some things that will not necessarily have imaginary consequences because of its antecedents. Can't you figure it out?" Li Zhi took Li Hong to an octagonal pavilion and sat down, Li Zhi asked lightly.
"There is nothing I can't figure out, but Erchen feels aggrieved and regretful for the queen's mother and the two palace ladies who died." Li Hong said unhappily.
I begged for a long time along the way, hoping that the emperor father could handle this matter to himself, that he could not kill the Turkic people, and he could take the Jinyang Wang clan lightly, but his father resolutely refused.
"I heard that you have been emotionally unstable during this period. Hong'er, the father rushed to Taiyi City in a hurry. Do you think it is to prevent you from avenging them? The father also has the problems of the father, and your mother and queen are not wronged. Is it? But for the sake of Datang Sheji's stability, the father had to choose to be patient for the time being." Li Zhi patted Li Hong on the shoulder and said.
Li Hong sighed silently. He knows these things better than anyone else, but the loss of two court ladies in this incident made him feel like a dog in his throat.
Furthermore, the neurotic emotions in the past two days are not only because of the deaths of Bailu and Xiaohan, but also because I have guessed in my heart, who might be the main messenger of this incident, and I also vaguely anticipated that it might not be over. Over.
The history books do not record whether the mother's queen was assassinated, but it is true that the mother's relationship with the Jinyang Wang clan is true. Therefore, after he woke up that day, he had guessed who the murderer might be.
When I can’t, Wutian told myself yesterday, I endured the pain of my shoulder and went forward. I just wanted to settle the whole matter before my father arrived. Then I only need to learn from Wang Kang and Wang Jing. When someone gets a confession, it is difficult to change the result even if the father wants to change the result.
But unfortunately, at the last moment, Yang Wu rushed to stop him, and not only that, when the father sent Yang Wu to stop him, he also thought of what to do if he couldn't stop him?
So I put Bai Chun as a bargaining chip to negotiate with him, that is, Li Hong, if you want to check, you have to check. Yes too! Check it with Bai Chun, even if Bai Chun has nothing to do with this incident.
But Wang Kang, Wang Jing, and the Great Monk Weiying at the scene were all the people who conspired with Bai Chun back then. How many Datang craftsmen were sold? It happens that the new case and the old case are tried together. If you Li Hong is willing, then investigate.
Bai Chun didn't come to the Sacred Palace to report to him, but instead sent a report to him without being able to report to him, indicating that at that time, Bai Chun had completely guessed that those people were Wang Kang and others.
It's even possible that after being besieged, Wang Kang and others were like Bai Chun pleading! These are the reasons for the inability and lawlessness to report to himself.
And I was angry because of lawlessness. Two idiots rushed back to report to them, but left Bai Chun there, just as Bai Chun wanted.
Bai Chun didn’t think about continuing to live anymore. She was afraid of implicating the prince because of herself, so her plan was to get the confession she wanted from Wang Kang and Wang Jing, and then die in their hands. , In this way, His Royal Highness can deal with this matter without scruples.
Bai Chun blames Li Hong for being injured, and also blames Bai Lu and Xiaohan for the deaths. Although this matter has nothing to do with her, but those people had a deep relationship with her back then, so Bai Chun always felt that he could not face it anymore. To Li Hong.
Moreover, they assassinated the Empress of Tang Dynasty. If this matter aroused your majesty’s anger, Bai Chun was afraid that he might be implicated in the prince. If the royal change was triggered again, the prince’s position would be turbulent. Prince Edward.
"Bai Chun did the right thing. If she dies, you will be free from any involvement in your prince." Li Zhi said as he looked at Li Hong who was wandering in his thoughts and his eyes were empty.
"What good will Bai Chun's death do to you? Erchen didn't think she did the right thing. Stupid people would do it." Li Hong said angrily.
Li Zhi ignored the unkindness in Li Hong’s tone, shook his head and said, “Bai Chun can have a good master like you, even if he died, it’s a pity that his master has too much tenderness in his heart, and died twice. A palace lady can be helpless for several days."
"So what..."
Just as Li Hong was about to refute, he saw Li Zhi looking outside the pavilion, shaking his hand with his back to him, and sighing, "Hong'er, this is the helplessness of being an emperor. As a prince, you are not for Bai Chun. And gave up the original resoluteness and chose to compromise?"
Li Zhi turned around, his eyes were very bright, and he looked at Li Hong with a wise look at the moment.
Li Hong curled his lips in disdain. Li Zhi naturally knew his thoughts. The character of this kid is that he must be retributed. He is too young to be too impulsive, and it is impossible not to beat him.
Now there are wars on both sides. If the East Turks are anxious because of this incident, Liu Rengui in Baekje will be enemies on both sides.
Sighed and walked to the front, put his arms around Li Hong’s shoulders and said, “Back then, Jieli and Tuli’s 200,000 cavalrymen were on the Weishui River. If your grandfather had no choice but to accept an alliance with them, and A large amount of gold and silk money was given to the two of them. At that time, the Tang Dynasty was not as rich as it is now. Your grandfather gave the entire palace property to others. Like your grandfather, you are as wise and martial artist as you are People all chose to stay dormant for a while, and after years of hard work, they finally defeated them and the humiliation. Hong'er, as the future emperor of Datang, can't you be like your grandfather?"
At the window on the fifth floor, Wu Mei stood in front of the window, looking at the father and son in the garden and talking with each other. Suddenly, she felt that the royal can have such a harmonious picture, isn't it a very satisfying thing.
"Don't say that, I don't want to learn from Grandpa Emperor, let alone you are now in your prime..."
"Haha..." Li Zhi couldn't help but laughed up to the sky, and said: "Father's body is clear in his heart. When you become the emperor in the future, you will know that this seat is not that easy to sit up. ."
"Ugh..."
Li Hong could only sigh helplessly. The emperor Lao Tzu enlightened himself in this way. If he is no longer witty, his **** is really itchy.
Moreover, in order to stop being depressed, the emperor father even compared himself with the emperor's grandfather, enough to imagine how much the emperor cares about himself.
Furthermore, for so many years, the most respected by the father is that he took him up and down when he was a child, and after the death of his grandmother, he stayed by his side to raise his grandfather.
"What about Jinyang Wang? You don't think Jinyang Wang also..." Li Hong asked.
"You don't need to ask too much about this. The Jinyang Wang family was blinded by lard. He is really responsible for it. I will never be merciless. How about giving you a statement to your mother?"
Li Hong glanced at Li Zhi and said with a smile: "In fact, it's easy to handle. The Wang family tree in Jinyang has deep roots and intertwined roots. It's not a bad idea to use this incident to divide them down, and there is a child minister. Good idea. The Ministry of Households did give them several permits in Taiyi City this time. Although the King of Jinyang is dominant, it is not without opponents..."
"Grasp your sense of measure. Also, don't take advantage of your Hubu Shangshu right to overdo things, especially since the autumn harvest is just now, and then we will enter the cold winter. The government needs a lot of food and property at this time of the year, so don't do anything on it." Li Zhi squinted at him, knowing that he must be uneasy.
The Yunzhong Protectorate now governs the entire East Turkic land. Every winter, when they don’t have enough food to eat, they will always reach out and ask him for food. If Li Honghu is allowed to come, who knows whether the whole The clouds are full of smoke.
"Don't worry, how could your son behave like this. By the way, don't you need to accompany the mother and queen?" Li Hong looked at the window on the fifth floor. He was standing in front of the window and beckoning to his father. At this time, the mother of the queen did not know where she went.
"What's wrong?" Li Zhi asked strangely.
"It’s okay. If you don’t have to accompany your mother, how about your son taking you out for a stroll? Since you came here, the city of Taiyi is full of courtiers on the back of your butt. Today is rare to be idle. Honor and honor you." Li Hong looked around the garden. They were all guards by Jin Wuwei, but in the entire garden, there were only two of them, so they didn't hesitate to speak.
"Yes~IndoMTL.com~ If your mother asks, you remember to say that you took me out." Li Zhi hesitated and glanced at the window on the fifth floor, and he was also full of ventilation for going out. Yearn for.
What's more, he also heard from Wu Mei, how wonderful the Thousand-Hand Guanyin dance is and how the Taiyi City is prosperous and lively. I have been busy during this period and I have no time to appreciate it. I just took advantage of today's leisure to go out and have a look.
"Okay, that's it." Li Honghun replied indifferently.
But when the father and son looked at each other, they all saw the betrayal in each other's eyes after Wu Mei asked, "No way, it was the father who asked the son to take him out."
And Li Zhi would definitely say: "Li Hong said to take me to understand the sentiments of the people, and I am not very familiar with Taiyi City, so naturally let him take me out to see."
Li Zhi himself is all dressed in casual clothes, so he doesn’t need to deliberately disguise himself. He walked to the entrance of the garden and invited Yangwu. Li Hong also let the impossible, Wutian and others follow in secret. As for Huameng and others, it is natural to be tight Follow right and left.
