The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 233 The Appointment of White Goose Next

There is no small matter in the family of the Son of Heaven. In this era of imperial power, a joke spreads inadvertently, which may cause a disturbance between the government and the opposition. Let alone the marriage of the prince is a matter of the country. How can it be said casually? At this delicate time, everyone in the hall has their own scheming, and no one is willing to lead. Come up first to avoid becoming the target of others' attacks, so the hall became strangely quiet.

What do you think? I didn't think about anything! Although Li Xian bowed and lowered his head, he seemed to be meditating. In fact, he didn't think about anything at all, just because what people would think, and even what possible reactions would be, had already been expected by Li Xian. To put it bluntly, it was actually very simple, just one word - each has its own scruples!

The contradiction between the Empress Wu and the prince is an irreconcilable contradiction of life and death. In the end, there will be a battle. The winner will live, the loser will die, and there is no room for compromise. In fact, both sides know this very well. The problem is when to start a war and how to fight is a very particular matter. As far as the current division of the strength of the court, The gap between the two sides is not big - of course, the prince occupies the name of righteousness with the help of many times to supervise the country, and has encircled a large number of important ministers. In terms of the number and quality of courtiers, he is better than the Empress Wu, and he is not a little stronger, but when it comes to the real war, the prince can't guarantee it. The key to the upper hand lies in Gao Zong. After all, the prince is only the prince, not the emperor. He doesn't have the ability to say a word. He can suppress the emperor to make the princes. They are in a state of fighting wolves and fear at each other. No one dares to take the lead easily, let alone Li Xian in the court. Li Xian, the two people are staring at each other, and they are more cautious about each other's scruples.

If nothing unexpected happens, the confrontation between the Empress Wu and the prince will last for a long time, until one party is sure that it is bound to win, and then it will rise violently and strike a thunderbolt to kill the other party with one blow. But at present, the impasse of such a confrontation is on the verge of breaking the situation. The key is in this sudden marriage.

If the future father-in-law is not Pei Judao, the prince will not oppose the marriage, let alone create some artificial obstacles for the marriage. Even if the prince is actually "can't" now, he no longer likes women - since the Yang family was raped by He Lanmin, the prince He has changed his temper. On the surface, he is still the gentle and virtuous prince, but in private, he has become the "Invincible in the East". However, in order to hide people's ears, when it's time to get married, the prince will still marry. After all, as a prince, he will not marry after 20 years old. It's really some children who can't say, but Pei Judao is the queen of Wu. Li Hong naturally doesn't want such a father-in-law, not for anything else. Just because of Pei Judao's identity, Li Hong is worried, let alone if the news that he becomes the "hussar" leaks out, the consequences are not a joke. In this sense, Li Hong doesn't want to end this door. Dear, just because of this marriage, it means that Li Hong must take action as soon as possible to sweep away the dissident forces in the dynasty, especially to thoroughly clean up the people and horses of the Empress Wu, and this is obviously not an easy thing. In Li Hong's opinion, perhaps even 30% of the certainty is very difficult to say, so Li Hong has to be cautious. Naturally, I dare not express my position easily.

The prince has scruples, and the Empress Wu is also quite tricky. The reason is that there is also no absolute certainty of winning. Besides, since the focus of the court was moved to Luoyang, the Empress Wu has had a certain initiative. In time, it is not difficult to beat the prince's important ministers. Go down and replace it with a group of North Gate bachelors. At that time, the prince is just a puppet. It's not a matter of killing and scraping. Naturally, there is no need for Empress Wu to force the prince to see the truth at this time. Therefore, she interrupted Gao Zong's words before, and she didn't want to see this marriage come true. The meaning is that this coincides with the prince. Unfortunately, under the confusion of Li Xian, the reason for taking Bai Yan as a matter has become a problem. In the case of not knowing what medicine is sold in Li Xian's gourd, Queen Wu can only rationally choose to be silent.

The two masters, the prince and Queen Wu, did not speak. Li Xian, who had already been instructed by Li Xian, was naturally happy to be silent to the end. He made up his mind to sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight. As for Li Xulun, after all, he was still young, and the situation seemed to be wrong. He did not dare to participate in it, and he could only stand aside honestly, such as At this time, the atmosphere in the hall is very strange.

Are you in a hurry? Of course, no, no matter whether others are anxious or not, Li Xian doesn't care at all. He doesn't care about everyone's silence, and even doesn't care about whether the marriage can be successful or not. Just because this marriage is just a reason in Li Xian's overall plan, but it is not the only reason - and now the prince has arrived. Luoyang, the conflict between him and the Empress Wu will always happen sooner or later. If you want to find a reason to stir up trouble, for Li Xian, it is as simple as drinking water. To be honest, it's really not bad for the success or failure of this marriage. Of course, Li Xianzi can't easily let go of such a ready-made reason, but he can wait. That's it, so there's no need to worry.

"It's not good for Xian'er to have this intention, but Bai Yan is rare. Is Xian'er sure?"

Everyone else can keep silent. Du Gao Zong can't do it. Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall is very strange, Gao Zong can't stand it anymore, so he frowned slightly and asked.

"In the words of my father, I dare not say absolute certainty, but I will try my best to do my best for the marriage of the prince and brother."

Li Xian dared to propose in court that he naturally had a lot of certainty, but such things were not small. Naturally, Li Xian would not be stupid enough to pat his chest for guarantee, so he answered calmly.

"Well, well..."

Gao Zong has been seriously ill over the years. He is actually heartless and powerless. He has little to manage the affairs of the court, but he is not stupid. At first, he didn't think of the complexity of the problem. He just wanted to find a good marriage for the prince. But before, when he saw that the people in the hall looked strange, he immediately became a little suspicious. He just couldn't understand what the problem was. At this time, although Li Xian did not say anything to death, his self-confidence in his words had been revealed. It seemed that he would try his best to promote this marriage. The doubt in his heart inevitably deepened a little, and he hesitated for a moment.

"Your Majesty, it's rare for Xian'er to have such filial piety. You might as well let Xian'er have a try first. If it doesn't work, it's not too late." After a short silence, Empress Wu obviously wanted to understand the key to the matter, and there was also a final decision, which interrupted from the side.

"Father, the seventh brother is brave and has great luck. Maybe it's not certain that he can get something. Let's have a try."

Queen Wu said something, and Li Hongzi was unwilling to show weakness, so he followed suit. Although the smile on his face was still gentle, it was obviously a little more fierce in Wuhou's eyes.

"Well, that's the deal. Xian'er, this matter will be handled by the son. If it can be done, I will have my own reward. Even if it doesn't work, I don't have to force it. I'll think about it later." After hearing this, Wu Hou and Li Hong both agreed to Li Xian's proposal. Gao Zong could no longer speak out against it, so he nodded and agreed.

"Father, the child is also going to hunt with the seventh brother!"

As soon as Gao Zong finished speaking, Xiao Taiping twisted his little body, leaned on Gao Zong's body, shook Gao Zong's arm, and shouted delicately.

"Ah, this, this..."

When Gao Zong was in good health, he also hosted hunting. He had to be unfamiliar with hunting. How could he not know that there was still a big risk in it? He was willing to take risks in Xiao Taiping and refused to agree easily. But he said no, he spoiled Xiao Taiping tightly. It was difficult to say if he refused. Come on, helplessly, I have to talk vaguely.

"Mother queen, the child also wants to shoot white geese for the prince's brother. Mother queen, you just agree, mother queen..."

Seeing Gao Zong's vague words, Xiao Taiping was suddenly anxious. He left Gao Zong and leaned into Wu Hou's arms again. His small body twisted like a twist.

"You little naughty!" The Empress Dowager Wu lovingly reached out and scraped the little Yao nose of Princess Taiping. After a strange sentence, she looked at Li Xian with a smile and said, "Is it possible for Xianer to keep Yue'er safe?"

"Seventh brother, just take your little sister. I promise to listen to you, pull the hook, pull the hook!"

Before Li Xian came to his senses, Xiao Taiping had jumped down and jumped into Li Xian's arms like a little monkey. He raised his little head and begged endlessly.

I'll go. This little girl film is really a big trouble! Li Xian calculated a lot, but he didn't know that there was such a change. He was dumbfounded. Did he have the intention to refuse? On the one hand, he was sad about the entanglement of Xiao Taiping, and on the other hand, because there was a different meaning in Wu Hou's smiling look, it was really difficult to say the word "no", and he couldn't help but have some children for a while. It hurts.

"It doesn't matter if my little sister wants to go, but there is one. You have to be obedient, but you can't run around at will. Otherwise, I dare not take you with you." After Li Xianfei's quick calculation, he decided that if there was more Xiao Taiping's certificate, it seemed not bad, so he agreed with a smile.

"Oh, okay, okay, let's shoot the white goose. It's so good..."

Xiaotai was bored in the palace in the day, and it was really difficult to go out of the palace. This time, if she could go hunting, she would still go with her favorite seventh brother. At that moment, she jumped up happily. Therefore, the hall was full of the cheerful noise of Xiao Taiping...
