Chapter 13 Li Hong Picking Peaches
Planting trees does not see people, but picking peaches comes quickly. Well, you should always be careful not to choke on peaches! Although he has not seen the prince's face, Li Xian has already guessed his intention. Although his expression is slightly unhappy, he is actually sneering in his heart - the most depressed person for the Queen Wu is actually not Gao Zong, but the prince. The reason is very simple. Gao Zong is afraid of the inside, and he has been cleaned up by the Empress Wu for a long time. I'm convinced. Although there is a grudge, it's not too deep, but the prince is different. Obviously, he can take the opportunity to consolidate his position when dealing with the government, but he meets an old woman who has to dictate everything big and small. If he has resentment, he can't get angry. Over time, he has long been resentment higher than the sky. Now it's hard to have a cloud. If there is a chance to see the sun, will he not come to intervene? Of course, it doesn't matter to Li Xian whether the prince comes or not. It's just some differences between the water turbid or clear. The left and right do not affect Li Xian's plan to fish.
"See Your Highness the Prince!"
Li Hong has always been kind to people, but he didn't carry the prince's airs. He soon got off the golden chrome car and accepted the visits of the ministers with a smile on his face. Finally, he raised his hand and said peacefully, "All lovers, please level down."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
A group of courtiers were not stupid. They generally guessed Li Hong's intention. Therefore, Xie En returned to Xie En, but no one was willing to come forward to confide. After thanking one by one, they all immediately flashed aside and gave up the two brothers Li Xian.
It's really helpful for the old fox! Li Xian originally wanted to make a fortune in a muffled voice, but he did not think that it was too late for the courtiers to dodge one by one. Looking at it again, Li Xian had already turned his head and looked aside. Except for himself, it seemed that no one could face the prince's smiling face.
"Brother Prince, you are here. I'm going to report to you. You will arrive in Keke, which is really a coincidence." Everyone didn't say anything. Li Xian was helpless, so he had to walk forward with a shy face and play hip-hop with a smile.
"Oh? But I don't know what the seventh brother wants to know. You might as well talk about it with your brother. Don't panic. Let's talk about it slowly. I'll just listen to it. Li Hong has always been kind. Although he was quite dissatisfied with Li Xian's big movement behind his back, he did not show Li Xian's face, but the smile on his face was more different.
"To make the prince know that today coincides with Xun's holiday. I couldn't stay in the house, so I wanted to invite the sixth brother to travel together. Unexpectedly, as soon as I and the brothers gathered, I heard that there was a strange movement on the other side of the imperial edict prison. Only then did I know that the supervisor Cui Xuanzhe actually tried to murder Lord Shangguan. The minister and brother were shocked and inexplicated. It was the sixth brother who was wise and determined to take down the thief. He was right. Fortunately, I, the Tang Dynasty, and my younger brother rushed to the imperial edict prison. He almost rescued the old man Shangguan from the edge of the knife, and just got the line. He followed the melon, took down the evil slave who framed the old man Shangguan, and seized the conclusive evidence, which was enough to prove that the Lord Shangguan was unjustly imprisoned. The minister and brother and others knew it well. This matter is so serious that I dare not neglect it. I rushed all the way. I just wanted to invite the prince brother to preside over the overall situation. Coincidentally, the prince brother arrived. This is really God's will!" Li Xian's words were impassioned. Not only did he pile up all the credit for solving the case on Li Xian, but he did not forget to please Li Hong. It was as if the two brothers really had the intention to invite Li Hong to preside over the overall situation. It can really be said that both sides of the knife-cut tofu were only Li Hong listened. Satisfied, Li Xian had nothing to say.
"Oh? What's the matter? I must not sit idly by and ignore it. I must ask for justice for Lord Shangguan. It should not be too late. I will hand over the sign to see my father, and the sixth and seventh brothers will also meet together. Li Hong stopped when he said this, looked around at a group of ministers with different faces, and bowed his hands and said, "All Aiqing, this matter is very important. It must be judged by my father. Please accompany me to this palace. Please."
Li Hong has gradually participated in the government over the years. Although he has not made much achievements, he has never made mistakes. In addition, he is kind and has a reputation for wisdom in the eyes of the ministers. With his behavior, the ministers will not have any objections. In addition, a group of courtiers have had enough of the oppression of the party over the years and have been looking forward to it. It can teach a painful lesson to the later party. After hearing Li Hong's words, he echoed one after another, expressed his position, praised, and was excited for a while.
On this side of the ministers are excited, and Li Xian's face is a little uncomfortable - what Li Hong said is really nothing special. Li Xian has said similar words earlier, but he has never seen the ministers so excited. The big difference makes Li Xian depressed enough, but he still has an attack at this time. No, I can only sulk alone.
Unlucky child, who told you not to be the prince? Well, you'd better calm down quickly. Li Xian's eyes are very sharp. Although he has never turned his head, the rest of his eyes have long seen Li Xian's expression. Although his heart is funny, it is not easy to bring it to his face. Not only that, in order to take the next step, he has to try to coax him out in case Li Xian's anger and ruin a big deal.
"Sixth brother, this is a miscellaneous person. Don't be exploited by the children. The evil slave Shangguan Fu has to be closely watched." While Li Hong was in response to the ministers, Li Xian quietly moved a few steps, came to Li Xian's side, and said in a low voice.
There is no need to hammer the drum. Li Xian is an awakening person. As soon as he hears it, he has understood the words hidden in Li Xian's words - no matter how Li Hong acts, the first merit of this reversal is at Li Xian's. This article can't be erased by anyone. The ministers don't say anything, and they know it in their hearts! Li Xian was slightly stunned, and his eyes immediately lit up. He nodded with a smile, but there was no indication. He just stood silently side by side with Li Xian, waiting for the holy call.
Time passed minute by minute by second. In the blink of an eye, nearly half an hour has passed. The sign has been handed in for a long time, but it has never waited for Gao Zong's call. With the passage of time, more and more courtiers rushed to Chengtianmen in front of Chengtianmen. At the end, there were nearly a hundred, and everyone's face was covered. With a little anxiety, but no one dared to make a loud noise, and the atmosphere of the small square was suppressed, just like the fading sky.
"Look, it's coming, it's coming!"
Just as everyone was waiting impatiently, Liu Fuming, the internal guard, led two little eunuchs to hurried out of the Chengtian Gate. The originally silent crowd rose up, and the low voice became a piece. The three Li Hong brothers were refreshed and greeted them.
"Your Majesty's edict: Xuan, Prince Li Hong, Lu Wang Li Xian, King Zhou Li Xian Taiji Hall!" As soon as he saw the three Li Hong brothers coming, the chubby Liu Fuming hurriedly took a few steps, stood up his feet reservedly, waved the dust in his hand, and preached procrastinating.
"Hmm?" After bowing and thanking him, Li Hong raised his head and looked at Liu Fuming with doubt. He whispered and frowned slightly and said, "Eunuch Liu, all the ministers have been waiting for a long time. Can your father have an account?"
"No, Your Highness, Your Majesty has been waiting in the Taiji Hall. Please don't delay." Hearing Li Hong's question, Liu Fuming's fat face immediately twitched a few times, but he didn't explain much. He just shook his head slightly and reminded him.
"This..." Li Hong obviously didn't expect that Gao Zong only summoned his three brothers. He couldn't help but be stunned and opened his mouth hesitantly, but there was still not much at the bottom. He just said, "Well, I'll go to the palace." At this point, he looked back at the relatively speechless two brothers Li Xian, and then arched his hand to the ministers and said, "Allaiqing, please wait a moment. Rong Bengong will report to his father first, and then make a final.
It's not right, it's absolutely wrong. There must be something wrong here. Is it possible that the queen has taken action? Damn, it looks like it's going to be troublesome! Li Xian looked up at Liu Fuming and felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't say anything more at this moment. He could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart, took a few steps, stood side by side with Li Xian, followed Li Hong, and walked all the way to the Taiji Hall.
Taiji Hall, also known as the Middle Dynasty, is the main hall of the palace. It is not only the place of the emperor's early morning meeting, but also the place where sacrificials, ascending the throne and other rites are held. The momentum is magnificent. Ordinary ministers and workers come here, and there are few people who do not tremble. Even if the Li Hong brothers, who have been used to the palace atmosphere for a long time, come to the hall, They unconsciously slowed down, and their faces showed a solemn look, but they were obviously not interested in talking to each other. They all silently stepped on the steps to enter the hall. As soon as they entered the hall, they could see two people sitting on the high front. In addition to Gao Zong, the other person was Fengguan Gao E and Xia Yao. It turned out to be the queen Wu Mei Niang, and the bodies of the three brothers couldn't help but be stiff!
Sure enough, it came so fast! Although Li Xian had a hunch about the intervention of the Empress Dowager Wu, he never thought that the Empress Wu rushed to the Taiji Hall in person regardless of the rules of confinement. In addition to the shock, a fury spirit also surged up from the bottom of her heart. Countless new hatreds and old hatreds rolled up and down in her chest. It was almost difficult to control herself, and her eyes instantly shred with fine blood. .
Calm down, you must calm down! Although the resentment in his chest is difficult to calm down, Li Xian, who has the memory of the third generation, knows that this is not a place where he can do what he can do without permission. He quietly clenched his fist, took a deep breath, and forced himself to suppress all the untimely emotions, bowed his head behind Li Hong, and walked into the hall with small and quickly...
