The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 7 Plan and Move 2

"Seventh brother, it's not easy to study literature at home this early morning. What are you doing as a brother?"

In fact, the King of Zhou and the Lu Palace are not far from each other, only one street away, but the two brothers have little contact with each other. Generally speaking, Li Xian, as his younger brother, comes to greet each other during the Spring Festival. As for Li Xian, he never goes to Zhou Wangfu. Today coincides with Xun's holiday. Li Xian originally planned to He invited a group of young talents to get together in his house, but he didn't expect the door to open, and Li Xian arrived. Li Xian had to greet him, but he was quite angry. He didn't wait for Li Xian to come forward to salute, so he said and asked angrily.

This is so rude! Li Xian was about to come forward to greet him with a smile on his face, but unexpectedly, he was asked by Li Xian so loudly. Even if he knew that Li Xian was so simple, he was still unhappy in his heart. However, Li Xian came today with ulterior motives, but he did not intend to pay attention to such trivial things, so his smile did not change. He went up to the ground, bowed and arched his hand and said, "The sixth brother taught me a lesson. I came here at the presumptuous time. Please don't blame the sixth brother."

"Well, since it's here, let's talk in the room."

In the past, Li Xian was reprimanded, and Li Xian must refute it. After a few words of debate, it always ended with Li Xian crying. But today, Li Xian not only did not argue, but also held a lot of courtesy, but made Li Xian a little surprised. He glanced at Li Xian, but did not rush to dismiss the guest order. He waved his hand and retreated slightly to the side. Step, casually draw a "please" gesture.

"Brother Six, please go first."

Li Xian didn't care about Li Xian's casual attitude at all. He arched his hand with a smile, raised his feet and walked up to the steps in front of the royal palace. He walked next to Li Xian's side with him. He walked into the door and entered the second hall speechlessly all the way. Each guest master sat down, and a group of servants rushed to present the new one. Fragrant tea and various small dots.

"Please say frankly about what the seventh brother has done here. It's really impatient to go around the circle."

Although Li Xian was a little surprised by Li Xian's usual performance today, his disdain for Li Xian did not change much. As soon as the servants who served tea and poured water retired, he did not invite Li Xian to drink tea first. He tilted his head to look at Li Xian and directly asked Li Xian's intention.

"The sixth brother asked well. I just heard that the sixth brother will be in Qizhou after the beginning of spring. I'm afraid that he will be in a hurry and can't see him off. I will come and talk to my brother in advance." Li Xian was originally prepared and would not be moved by Li Xian's intolerance and rudeness. He replied reluctantly.

"Humph!"

As soon as he heard Li Xian open his mouth, he mentioned the matter of the vassal. Li Xian was very angry. He snorted coldly and stared at Li Xian with angry eyes. His face changed for a long time, but he never said a word - and he could not blame Li Xian for being angry. Although the kings were customized by the Tang Dynasty, it was actually not so. The matter is that if he is a concubine, he is generally going to become a vassal. As soon as he is crowned king, he will get the vassal land to live. But for the direct son, it is not so strict. From the time of Gao Zu, Li Shimin himself did not go to the vassal when he was a prince. When Gao Zong Li Zhi was the king of Jin, he also did not have a vassal. His direct brother Li Tai, the king of Wei. It was also after the failure to seize the throne that the vassal was forced to become a vassal. In this dynasty, the mourning king Li Xiao (mother of Zheng), the king of Ze Li Shangjin (the mother of the mother of the palace Yang), and the king of Xu Li Sujie's mother Xiao Shufei) were all expelled to the vassal at the age of less than ten. As for Li Xian and other direct sons, although they have been crowned kings, they have never been vassaled. It's just a remote leader of the governor. In this way, Li Xian's vassal seems a little dazzling this time.

According to the Tang system, the prince's vassals are all taught by the assassins of the above state. He has jurisdiction over the land of a state and controls 30,000 households. For those who do not want to be in the position, they may be regarded as a happy nest. But for those who have a big treasure, the vassal is a concept of matching, just for Li Xian or Qizhou, who will take office. On the other hand, the state is Shangzhou, and it is not far from the capital. If you ride a fast horse, you can get there in a day and a half. However, it is far from the political center. Once there is a vassal, you can't participate in the government according to the example. For Li Xian, who is willing to fight with the crown prince Li Hong, it is really a terrible thing, and now the decree of the vassal is not yet. It was issued, but Li Xian learned the news early. It was more clear that this matter was done by the Empress Wu, and it was difficult to change it. In the past few days, Li Xian was extremely angry about this matter. Now he has been torn apart by Li Xian's scars in front of him, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

"Is the seventh brother here to humiliate his brother, huh?"

The children of the Tian family are precocious, and Li Xian is the best among them. Although he is so angry by Li Xian's words, Li Xian did not burst into a thunderous attack, but after a long silence, he grew a breath, had a black face, and asked in a cold voice.

"The sixth brother misunderstood. Brother An dares to do this. The little brother is here, but there are a few words. Maybe Brother Yu has a little help."

Facing Li Xian's cold eyes, Li Xian shook his head quietly and slowly opened his mouth to explain. His childish little face was full of awe.

"Oh?" Although Li Xian is only two years older than Li Xian, his fame in the field is many times higher than that of Li Xian. Li Xian, who is known for his intelligence, despises Li Xian's mediocrity. In the past, he has often scolded Li Xian's incompetence. At this time, when he listened to Li Xian say that he could help himself, he couldn't help but be stunned and whispered softly. He looked at Li Xian with surprise on his face, and his eyes were extremely complicated. He was not only surprised, but also doubtful, and a little puzzled and ashamed. After pondered for a long time, he squeezed out a word from his teeth: "Speak!"

Dear, another one is suspicious! Li Xian had expected Li Xian's suspicion, but he was not surprised. Originally, an extremely mediocre person suddenly became eloquent, which could not arouse the suspicion of others. Not to mention Li Xian, such a smart person, even the waitresses in Li Xian's room had seen that something was wrong with Li Xian.

If possible, Li Xian is not willing to come to such a sharp turn. However, under the pressure of the situation, Li Xian has to change hard even if he doesn't want to change. Just because he can't take advantage of Li Xian's position to stop Shangguan Yi's death, it will be the so-called "two saints" next - Li Xian remembers it clearly. On the ninth day of the first month of the second year of Lin, he forced Gao Zong to issue an edict to allow him to listen to the government. The next day, the first court meeting after the New Year, Wu Mei Niang ignored that her confinement had not been completed, and destroyed the prestige of Shangguan Yi Manmen. She came to the government. The place of the emperor and Gao Zong were collectively called the "two saints". Since then, the affairs of the court have been gradually controlled by him. This reason The political experience has laid a solid foundation for his usurpation in the future. Therefore, if Li Xian does not want to continue such a tragic fate in the future, he must make a tough counterattack on the matter of Shangguan Yi. On the one hand, it is to disrupt the overall layout of Wu Mei Niang, and on the other hand, it is to find a support point for Gao Zong to fight back. As for whether this matter can be Cheng, the big key lies in Li Xian, and this is the root of Li Xian's lobbying for Li Xian.

Naturally, it is easy to talk about, but these words are confidential. How can they open up in front of the servants? Li Xian hinted for a moment, but Li Xian never reacted, which made Li Xian depressed. In desperation, he had no choice but to laugh. Hehe said, "Sixth brother, all the people in your house are doing well. Tut, one by one, they are so fierce, but they are so envious of my little brother. Alas, I can't teach the stupid people in my little brother's house. They can't teach them no matter how to teach them. They are just a group of mud that can't help the wall. They are ashamed, ashamed."

"Oh? Hahaha, the seventh brother joked again, but I like this joke very much for my brother. Well, I've heard it. Since His Royal Highness the King of Zhou praised you, he was very stingy. He went to the account room to receive rewards. Each person has five hundred yuan, half a day off, and then go down. Li Xian was intelligent by nature. As soon as he heard Li Xiangu say something else, he immediately reacted and applauded with laughter. In the name of reward, he sent out all the servants who were serving in the hall.

Although the 500 articles at this time are not as powerful as the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it is not a small number of words. A group of servants may not be able to save so much money at the end of the year's hard work. There is no one who is not very excited to hear such a reward. They hurriedly thanked the two princes and hurriedly rushed to the account room. When he went there, the huge hall was quiet in an instant, leaving only two brothers sitting opposite each other.

"What does the seventh brother have to say? Let's open it open and say it. Just listen to it for my brother." After the servants retreated, Li Xian narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Xian for a while, and then he said in a flat tone.

"It's good to say that the sixth brother is full of history books. I have always admired him very much, but I don't know if the sixth brother knows Lv Zhi's allusions?" Li Xian smiled slightly and did not pretend to be more. He just asked a question calmly.

"You..." Li Xian has been learning since he was a child. He is very proficient in history books. How can he not know the historical facts of the chaos of politics after Lv in the early Han Dynasty? When he heard Li Xian mention this matter, his face became ugly in an instant. He pointed to Li Xian and seemed to scold him, but when the words came to his mouth, he forced to bear it. He just stared at Li Xian with a black face. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said coldly, "The seventh brother is so bold that he dares to compare his mother to Lv Yu. Aren't he afraid to take the head of his brother, huh?"

"Can the sixth brother do it?" Facing Li Xian's black face, Li Xian just shrugged his shoulders carelessly and asked rhetorically without waiting for Li Xian's answer. He said to himself, "It seems that such things are harmful to others and themselves. Even if he is as stupid as a younger brother, he does not disdain it, not to mention that he is as wise as a sixth brother."

As soon as Li Xian said this, Li Xian was silent again, but his face became more and more ugly. It was black and red. From time to time, there were fine light flashing in his eyes, and the color of worry was almost hidden at all - Li Xian has been loved by Gao Zong with wisdom since he was a child, but he has never The Queen Wu's heart was also because of every rumor in the palace that Li Xian was born to Wu Hou's sister, South Korea's wife Wu Shun. Under the anger of Li Xian, who was less than ten years old, he ran to blame the Empress Wu. Therefore, he was deeply hated by Queen Wu. In the past, he often scolded Li Xian with small things. The relationship between the mother and son can be said to be extremely indifferent. This time, Li Xian is about to After being driven away to the vassal, the manipulator behind him was the Empress Wu. With such all kinds of knots, Li Xian would not have the slightest good impression on the mother of Empress Wu, but before he figured out Li Xian's intention, Li Xian did not want to express his attitude. Silence became the best choice under his helplessness...
