Chapter 45 Rejection Again Next
Everyone is curious, and Li Xian is naturally no exception. Although Li Xian has guessed about the real cause of Shangguan Yi's death in private, he has not been verified after all. He wants to know what is strange, but he never wants to know about it from the prince, nothing else, just because he doesn't want to be too Zi has a common secret. Obviously, this is the intention of the prince's question, and this is exactly what Li Xian tried to avoid.
"When a person dies, he will die. Even if he dies, what can he do with unparalleled glory? In the end, it is just an illusory ear."
Since Li Hong asked a question, it is naturally impossible not to answer, but Li Xian did not want to jump into such an obvious and incomparable trap, so he sighed and replied with emotion.
"The words of the seventh brother are not good. The sage Sima Qian said: 'People are inherent in death, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than Hongmao'. In my opinion, those who die in the community are heavier than Mount Tai, and those who die in self-interest will be lighter than Hongmao. The two are clear. How can they be regarded as a talk."
Hearing Li Xian's answer was obviously avoiding the truth. Li Hong couldn't help frowning and saying Li Xian with a trace of displeasure.
"The prince's brother has taught me a lesson. It's really difficult to say a little about the great righteousness. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed! Ha ha, as the saying goes, when the book is used, I hate it less, and I am ashamed. It's time to ask the prince for advice.
Li Xian didn't want to pester the cause of Shangguanyi's death. When Li Hong opened his mouth to teach him a lesson, he was also happy to avoid such a ** topic, so he turned the topic away.
"Well, the seventh brother can have this understanding. If he is willing to work hard, he will be successful every day. Today, the court is in an eventful autumn. With the talent of the seventh brother, he should be the pillar of the auxiliary country, and I am very much forward to it."
Seeing that Li Xian refused to inquire about the cause of Shangguanyi's death, Li Hong did not write more about it, but threw out a bait for Li Xian in the future.
"The prince's brother has passed the reputation. Although the minister's brother is willing to give up literature and martial arts, he regrets that he has no talent. Even if he has the heart to devote himself to war, it is difficult to make great achievements. It's just a reputation for fame, which makes the prince brother laugh."
Li Xian is obviously a loach. He is slippery and doesn't keep his hands tight. How could he bite the hook that Li Hong ran out? He was modest and said nothing. His intention was to refuse Li Hong's solicitation, but it was not difficult to guess.
Although Li Hong was erudite and talented, he was not good at discerning. He was so entangled by Li Xian and had a headache, but he also had no choice but to take Li Xian. He looked at Li Xian and refused to comply. Li Hong's face was a little uncomfortable. He bit his lips, looked at Li Xian silently, crossed his heart, and simply pointed out the topic. Say: "The seventh brother does not need to be too modest. The seventh brother knows the ability of the brother. The seventh brother can also see it clearly. Although the lonely is dark and weak, he is not a person who can be bullied. The sadness of the early Han Dynasty will not be repeated in the Tang Dynasty. I hope that the seven brothers can help me."
The sadness of the early Han Dynasty? Good boy, it's so straightforward. Damn it, it's forcing us to make a statement. It's a big trouble! As soon as Li Hong said this, Li Xian immediately stood up. For nothing else, because this sentence had forced him to a dead corner. It was impossible to deal with it again, but how to answer it was very difficult for Li Xian - people's hearts are fleshy. Although Li Xian's experience is rich, he is not a ruthless person. He has always faced He can't be indifferent to his brother's pleas, but it's not a matter of whether he should or not, but a matter of principle. Even if Li Xian can't bear it, he dares not accept it.
Fuous words to deal with it, and then go left and right? If it is feasible, Li Xian really wants to do this. Unfortunately, it is impossible. It is only because Li Hong and Li Xian, who are not easy to be fooled. If Li Xian really plays like this, the final result can only be that both sides are not pleased. At that time, under the attack on both sides, Li Xian will not to mention secretly develop the team, just those who come. The open knives and hidden arrows of the two brothers are enough to make Li Xian overwhelmed by himself and talk about development. Obviously, Li Xian can only rely on one side, and from the overall situation, Li Xian can only give up the prince and take Li Xian. This is Li Xian's established policy. Even if Li Xian is deeply ashamed of his sincerity to the prince at this time, it is impossible to have Ease.
"The saint has a cloud: water carries a boat, and water overturns the boat. This water is the hearts of the people. If you can obey the people, there is nothing you can do. I think that this is the road of politics, but whoever can do this will know you. Why worry about being treacherous." After Li Xian was silent for a long time, he still did not directly answer Li Hong's invitation, but took out the saint's quotations. To talk about a lot, it was actually a meaning - a refusal, still a refusal!
As soon as Li Xian said this, Li Hong's eyes immediately faded. The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, as if he wanted to persuade him again, but he still didn't say anything at the bottom. He just meditated silently. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Well, since the seventh brother has other plans, it's not easy to be strong. The seventh brother is tired. Please take care of yourself."
"Brother Prince Haihan, I will leave."
At this point, although Li Xian felt that he could not live with Li Hong, he had nothing to do. After all, it was difficult to do both. Seeing that Li Hong issued an eviction order, Li Xian did not want to stay any longer, so he stood up, bowed, and then turned around and walked out of the pavilion.
"Shangguan's door is full of stolen and bandits!"
Just as Li Xian walked out of the pavilion, Li Hong's low voice suddenly came from behind him. Hearing this, Li Xian's back suddenly stiffened and stood hesitantly. After standing for a moment, he turned back, bowed to Li Hong, and saluted again, but he didn't say much. He bowed his head and walked out of the palace without saying a word...
"Your Highness."
Shortly after Li Xian left, the figure in the pavilion flashed. Wang Dequan appeared behind Li Xian like a ghost, bowed his body and called softly.
"Hmm." Li Xian didn't look back, but just said a faint voice, stood up slowly, looked up at the sun that had already slanted to the west, and said, "People have their own aspirations, and they can't be strong. That's all. If you're tired, go back." As soon as the words fell, he didn't care about Wang Dequan's expression. He dragged his feet out of the pavilion and slowly walked to the Xiande Hall. Seeing this, Wang Dequan shook his head slightly. He didn't dare to delay any more, so he hurriedly followed.
Finally, I broke through. I didn't expect this step to come so early. I'm afraid the next days will be difficult. Let's take it step by step! Although he has long known that he and the prince will not be the same passers-by, and that the breakup will happen sooner or later, Li Xian is still sad for a long time. Since he got on the carriage, his whole spirit has been gloomy. He half-closed his eyes and leaned against the soft cushion, and his heart fluctuates. It took a long time to slow down.
The prince is going to fight back! After Li Xian's spirit was a little better, he silently reorganized the conversation between today and the prince in his heart. Combined with the court situation in the past few months, he immediately came up with an inference - although Li Xian has basically not been out of the house, he has never neglected the collection of information in the court. In addition, As evidenced by the news from Li Xian's end, it is clear that the Empress Wu, who is far away in Luoyang, is now busy summoning a boring literati to compile books such as "Biography of Women", "The Tracks of Ministers", "The New Ring of Hundred Officials", "Leshu" and so on. She is rampantly promoting that women can also be in politics, in an attempt to reverse the people's bad impression of women's politics. And creating the basis of public opinion for him to come on the stage. Obviously, this move has seriously offend Li Hong's interests. As the crown prince, it is natural for Li Hong to fight back against it. This has long been in Li Xian's expectation. What I can't figure out is from which aspect the prince will start from, but today for a while. After that, Li Xian had roughly understood the direction of the prince's counterattack - Shangguan Yi's nickname!
The truth of Shangguanyi's death may be a mystery. There are absolutely few people who can know the inside story, but the reason why Shangguan Yi was demoted is well known. If the prince can make some articles on Shangguanyi's nickname, he can brush the face of the Empress Wu fiercely, and even force her to slow down his feet in politics. Step, the move is a wonderful move, but in Li Xian's view, it may not work - the prince now has the name of superintendent and holds the power of the court. Unfortunately, the prince of the superintendent is only the prince of the superintendent after all, not the emperor. Many things can't be done by Li Hong. Besides, Gaozong is now in the palm of Wuhou. In the grip, no matter how happy the prince is, Gao Zong's imperial edict comes down, and everything will be zero. If there is no accident, the prince's counterattack will eventually be empty. At least Li Xian himself is not optimistic about it. Of course, if he is not optimistic about it, it does not hinder Li Xian's plan to take advantage of momentum.
If you want to take the momentum, you must make the fire burn more vigorously. It is best to make the battle between the prince and the Empress Dowager a long time. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk, and this is obviously not an easy thing to do. Even if Li Xianzheng is extremely experienced, it will be difficult to come up with a perfect plan for a while. I have been thinking all the way. I thought about it a little bigger, but there was still no result. Disheartened, I couldn't help locking my eyebrows into the word "Chuan".
"Your Highness, Your Highness."
Just as Li Xian was in meditation, Gao Mio's call suddenly sounded outside the carriage.
"Hmm?"
Li Xian was stunned and suddenly found that the carriage had stopped at some point. He reached out and lifted the corner of the car curtain and looked out. Only then did he know that the carriage had stopped in front of his house. He laughed at himself and didn't say much. Gao Yu waited for him to get off the carriage, but he was not in a hurry to enter the house, but stood by the carriage and looked at The stone lion in front of the house was stunned. He was in a daze, and Gao Mio and others did not dare to move lightly. Therefore, a large group of people stopped at the door and looked at Li Xian blankly. No one knew that his master was doing something famous again.
"Ha, there it is!"
Just as a group of bodyguards speculated randomly, they saw Li Xian suddenly smile, patted his hands, and walked into the house quite excitedly. His hurried footsteps made everyone dumbfounded...
