The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 603 Farmer's Three Fist

On January 23 of the second year of Yifeng, Daji, Li ceremony and marriage. Gao Zong personally presided over the canonization ceremony, appointed Li Xian as the crown prince of the East Palace, the princess Zhao Qiong as the crown princess, the princess of the Mingyue as the concubine of the Ming Dynasty, Yan Hong as the Teng, and the crown prince Li Chongyi as the king of Hanping. The Ming edict announced the world, the opening of grace, and amnesty.

On the first day of the second month of the second year of Yifeng, Zhang Wentang, the famous prime minister, was dismissed for his old age. On the seventh day of the second lunar month, Liu Rengui, the old prime minister who had recovered three times, was also dismissed for the same reason. Both of them were the people who strongly supported Li Xian's entry into the East Palace. The obvious reason for his dismissal was the old man's physique. In fact, it was the performance of Queen Wu to retaliate against the two supporting Li Xianzhi. The leftovers were supplemented by Pei Yan and Xue Yuanchao. The former was the servant, the head of the department, and the latter was the middle book order. The original Chinese book order Pei Xingjian was transferred to the right servant of Shangshu Province. Li Zhen, the king of Yue, was the left servant of Shangshu Province, and Hao Chujun, Li Jingxuan, Jia Chaoyin and others did not move.

The East Palace has entered, and the prince has also become it. However, Li Xian does not seem to be excited. He has neither arbitrarily solicited the courtiers, nor has he pointed fingers at the government, nor has he tried to compete with the Empress Wu. Every day, he has not even left the East Palace for half a step except for the due morning and evening. It has been a month since he entered the East Palace. There is only one thing to be busy with, and that is to cultivate the fields!

"Is the prince still ploughing the field, huh?"

The prince's respect, he ignored the government, but was busy with farm work. This matter was about to spread, and no one could believe it. At least Empress Wu herself did not believe it. Therefore, Queen Wu asked this question almost every day.

"It's true that the mother's words are true. The prince has flattened half of the back garden. In these days, several acres of land have been completed, but there has not been planted, but it is empty and labor-intensive, which has caused a lot of complaints from the East Palace."

Empress Wu's voice was not loud, but the cold meaning inside was not small. Cheng Denggao, who replied, did not dare to be careless. His bent waist was a little heavier, accompanied by a smiling face, and answered cautiously.

"Hmm."

Queen Wu did not make a statement as usual, but just said a soft voice from her nostrils, but the suspicion on her face not only did not diminish, but also a little stronger.

"Mother, it's not a good thing for the prince to be so unindustrous. Do you need someone to put some bullets on it and warn him?"

Cheng Denggao, who was worried about Wu Hou, immediately turned his eyes and made a suggestion in a low voice.

"It's not urgent. Let's take a look at it again. Well, isn't the army led by the East Palace still full?"

To be fair, Cheng Denggao's idea is not bad. As long as the imperial historians below are on the top, Queen Wu can use this to hold him accountable. Naturally, she can figure out what Li Xian wants to do. However, Queen Wu doesn't want to do this, just because in the eyes of Queen Wu, Li Xian's mind is deep-hearted, and what he has done will never be like On the surface, it looks so simple. There must be a great conspiracy behind it. Before figure out Li Xian's card, Queen Wu wanted to act rashly so as not to leave room for Li Xian to play. This was vague and turned the topic away.

"If you go back to the Empress's words, it's really not full. There are still a thousand people left. The other end of the East Palace is said to be transferred from Hexi. The other end of the military department has just been reported, and the fold is in front of the Empress."

Cheng Denggao thought he had a wonderful plan, but Queen Wu was unwilling to give advice, and it was inevitable that he was a little sad. How dare he show it in front of Queen Wu? He could only answer carefully.

"Well, the purpose of this palace is to say that it is not appropriate to transfer the army from Hexi to hurt the people's money. This proposal is rejected. Well, since there is a difference in the number of soldiers, it is better to transfer some people from the Yulin Army. In this way, Wu Yining will unify the Qianyu Forest Army to the East Palace to lead the general."

Queen Wu did not go to the folds pile to find the transfer folds. She raised her eyebrows and made a decree with a trace of coldness.

"Mother Shengming, I'm going to do it now."

Cheng Denggao can become the confidant of the Empress Wu. Naturally, he is not a fool. As soon as he heard it, he had already recognized the intention of the Empress Wu's move. He was so excited that his old face smiled like a **. He hurriedly answered and hurriedly withdrew from the room...

"..., come on, this piece of land is uneven, no matter how neat it is, and these gravel have been cleared..."

Plowing the field is a technical job. Li Xian had a lot of experience in his previous life, but when it comes to hands-on ability, it's not enough. It's just a mouthful kung fu. There are many good farmers in the left and right guards. In fact, there is no need for Li Xian to go to the field to work in person. Therefore, although Li Xian is also wearing a farming clothes, it is really On the other side, he just shouted the hoe on the edge of the field. He only suffered from the group of people who hoeed the ground in the rain, and everyone stirred up like a mud monkey.

"Your Highness, Yulin Junlang, led a thousand soldiers to the gate of the palace with a thousand soldiers, saying that he came to the office by order. Please make it clear to your Highness."

Just when Li Xian was busy, he saw Liu Qiming, the eunuch deputy director of the East Palace, running in a hurry, approached, and lowered his voice and reported.

"Going to work?"

Hearing this, Li Xian immediately frowned and glanced at Liu Qiming suspiciously.

"His Highness's words, according to his own words, he came to take the post of General of the East Palace with a letter from the Ministry of War."

Seeing that Li Xian looked wrong, Liu Qiming did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly explained.

Is this the action? Oh, the old thief really can't calm down! Li Xian understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. He sneered secretly in his heart, but he didn't care much about it. He casually put the hoe to the field, clapped his hands, and quietly ordered, "All of them have it. Put down the farm work and walk to the palace gate."

"No!"

General Hu Ben is the head of the six heads of the East Palace. It is not easy to deserve it. A group of guards are all people who roll out of the corpses, and they can't let an unknown person climb on his head for nothing. Everyone's stomach is full of breath, and the answer is a little harsh.

Outside the East Palace Gate, a thousand Yulin officers and soldiers were neatly lined up in several rows. Their military posture was quite upright and the standard military appearance of the guard of honor. Before the queue, a general dressed in bright light armor stood up. His armor was bright and impressive, but the image was a little miserable. The five short figure was supported by armor. But it is still as ridiculous as a big horse monkey. This man is Wu Yining, the cousin of the Queen of Wu.

Wu Yining is very proud. He is not ordinary. He is so proud that he can't wait to look up to the sky and laugh wildly. It's nothing else. Just because he is now in the highest position of a general. Six years ago, he was just a rural rich man. Although he has two small money, when it comes to status, I'm afraid he can't even compare with the government officials in the county. Up, but now, it will be the top of the six rates of the East Palace. All this is like a dream, but it is extremely conclusive. Freedom is not exciting. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, I'm afraid that he would have been happy already, but his good mood has not been maintained for long. As soon as he saw it, Li Xian, who was dressed in clothes, led a group of farmers to go out of the palace so calmly. Wu Yining was stunned and vaguely felt that something was not right.

"The last general Wu Yining, see His Royal Highness!"

He was stunned and suspicious. In front of Li Xian, Wu Yining did not dare to be careless at all. He hurriedly turned over and got off his horse, grabbed the first few steps, and worshipped in a regular manner.

"Exit, what's the meaning of General Wu's so popular, huh?"

Li Xian owes a little affection for Wu Yining, an incompetent guy, and he didn't bother to be polite to him. He raised his hand and asked blankly.

"This..., hehe, so that Your Highness can know that the last general has been ordered to take office as General Hu Ben. The existing military department dispatch letter is here. Please have a look."

Hearing Li Xian's question, Wu Yining's uneasiness immediately became a little more full, but he did not dare not answer. He could only answer with a smile. As he spoke, he took out the letter of the Ministry of War from his robe, held it in his hands and handed it to Li Xian respectfully.

"Do you know what is the responsibility of the general Hu Ben?"

Li Xian did not reach out to pick up the transfer letter, but glanced at Wu Yining coldly and asked indifferently.

"If you return to Your Highness, Hu Ben is the close guard of Your Highness. Since the last general takes this responsibility, he should swear to protect the safety of His Highness."

The more plain Li Xian's words are, the more panicked Wu Yining's heart is. However, he can't tolerate half of his withdrawal. He can only grit his teeth and answer with self-support.

"Is the answer good? It seems that General Wu is really thoughtful, but I have some doubts. I don't know what ability General Wu has to protect me, huh?"

Wu Yining's answer was in accordance with the law, and there was no mistake in itself. However, Li Xian did not give up, but picked up the corners of his mouth, showing a sarcastic smile, and asked relentlessly.

"This, this..., the last general is willing to work for your Highness. Although he dies, he dares not resign."

Seeing that Li Xian's expression was wrong, Wu Yining's heart had sunk to the bottom, but he thought that he had the support of Empress Wu, but he refused to show weakness, so he answered in a loud voice.

"It's beautiful, but I'm timid and can't afford to take risks. If General Wu practices for another ten or eight years, maybe I can feel more at ease. As for now, please forgive me for not being able to bear the loyalty of General Wu."

Knowing the intention of Wu Yining sent by Empress Wu, how could Li Xian look at Wu Yining very well, regardless of his face as red as blood, sneered and mercilessly.

"Ah, this..., Your Highness, you can't do this. The last general came by the order of the Ministry of War, and the Queen also has an order, you..."

As soon as he saw Li Xian hit himself in public so directly, Wu Yining was ashamed and angry. He carried out Queen Wu regardless and contradicted Li Xian in public.

"Presumptuous!"

Li Xian has never been a talkative master. Under this anger, his voice was fierce, and his evil spirit rose violently, which made Wu Yining tremble. He took three steps back in a row with a pale face. He couldn't stabilize his body and almost fell to the ground...
