Li Yi was trimming flowers and plants in the palace, and there was a sound of footsteps behind her. At this time, there was nothing going on, and no one would come to disturb her, so Li Yi couldn't help but look back, and saw Li Xun coming.

"aunt."

Li Xun bowed his hands.

Li Yi nodded, said nothing, and turned back to continue pruning her flowers and plants.

The late wife walked up to Li Xun, holding a cup of tea in her hand and pointing to the stone platform beside her.

Li Xun saw that his aunt Li Yi was not in the mood to talk to him now, so he took the tea and walked to the stone platform to sit down without saying anything. He drank tea and thought about things. The conversation he had just had with Zhao Zhi, Zhao Zhi

Zhi's attitude was very tough. It was obvious that he had already made a decision in his heart. No matter how much he said, he could not change any outcome.

Li Xun frowned. Did he have no other choice but to leave Longyou? He had worked hard for nearly two years and led a group of people into a trance, and the situation he had finally created was to be handed over to others like this? Li Xun's heart

, I am really unwilling to do so.

Li Xun was drinking tea there, silent and contemplative, while Li Yi was pruning flowers and plants there, also silent, contemplative, still and moving.

Li Yi pinched the scissors in her hand, but she mistakenly cut the place where she shouldn't have.

Li Yi sighed and put down the scissors in her hands. The queen on the side quickly came over with a basin. After Li Yi washed her hands, the queen knew that her aunt and nephew had something to say, so she winked around and then led several palace maids.

The eunuch leaves.

"Have you met the emperor?"

Li Yi came to the stone platform and sat down, and asked quietly.

Li Xun said silently: "I just came from the emperor's uncle and we talked about Longyou."

Li Xun recounted his conversation with Zhao Zhi.

Li Yi was silent after hearing this. After a moment, he said silently: "He is the emperor, the lord of the world. The current imperial power is far greater than that of Xizong, Yizong, and Pingzong, and second only to Wuzong. In the world now, there is no one

If someone dares to rebel, just obey what he says. If you say too much, it will only be counterproductive and harm yourself."

After saying these words, Li Yi sighed: "The emperor is becoming more and more stubborn."

Li Xun pursed his lips and said in a dry voice: "Aunt, the foundation of Wuzhou was founded with my own hard work, and I don't want to give it to others."

Li Yi glanced at Li Xun and said quietly: "You are reluctant to leave Wuzhou, I'm afraid it's not just for yourself, right?"

In response to Li Yi's rhetorical question, Li Xun remained silent.

Leaving Wuzhou is a loss for Li Xun, but it is not a loss that is irreversible. However, Li Xun must not just consider himself. What Li Xun now represents is not just him, but a group.

Although this group is still very fragile and the cohesion is not strong, Li Xun's actions in Wuzhou in the past two years have indeed established his own foundation and a small power group. Once Li Xun leaves, there will be a single feud.

Zhao Wei and many other subordinates, what should they do?

Once King Yi replaces Li Xun and takes control of the military and political power of Longyou West Road, the first thing he will do is purge, eliminate dissidents, promote Li Xun, and suppress everyone who is close to Li Xun. This kind of

The suppression will definitely be very cruel. Shan Qiu and others followed Li Xun to Wuzhou all the way, going through life and death, riding before and after. Li Xun was kind to them, and they repaid Li Xun with their actions. Once Li Xun left,

, their fate can be imagined. Is Li Xun such a selfish and ruthless person?

Who will sincerely follow a person who has no benevolence, no righteousness, and is selfish, and how can he achieve great things?

This truth does not need to be told by others. How could Li Xun not know it?

Therefore, Li Xun insists that he will never give up Wuzhou easily unless it is absolutely necessary.

After a long silence, Li Xun smiled bitterly and said: "Aunt, if I leave, many people will suffer. If I only care about myself, my reputation will be ruined. Who will be willing to treat me sincerely in the future?"

Li Yi said quietly: "Those people you brought to Wuzhou can be brought to Hedong again. The emperor has agreed to it once before, and maybe he will not object this time."

Li Xun shook his head: "There have been people who have been slandering the emperor over and over again, saying that I am trying my best to cultivate private power in Wuzhou and form gangs. If I plead with the emperor again and ask them to go to Hedong together with them, other people's false accusations will be ignored.

Just sitting down will only arouse greater suspicion from the emperor."

There was a smile on Li Yi's face and she nodded: "It seems that you understand some of the problems yourself."

Li Yi's words just now were actually just to test Li Xun and said something sarcastic. She was just afraid that if Li Xun really did this, it would arouse Zhao Zhi's suspicion. If there were any unscrupulous people around to provoke him, there would be nothing to say.

used.

Li Xun smiled bitterly and said: "Aunt, I'm stupid, but I'm not that stupid. It's just that I'm not willing to leave like this."

"No hurries."

Li Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, looked at Li Xun, and said quietly: "The transfer of your position with King Yi cannot be decided in a moment, let alone by one person, not even the emperor, you

The transfer with King Yi must go through the Chaohui and Zhengshitang. If these two places cannot be passed, the emperor is powerless even if he wants to, do you understand?"

After hearing what Li Yi said, Li Xun's whole body was shocked, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, although Zhao Zhi has great imperial power now, important personnel transfer arrangements must go through the court meeting and the political affairs hall. If most of them

The courtiers expressed their opposition. It is still difficult for Zhao Zhi to pass any decision. This is the conflict between the prime minister's power and the imperial power. Yang Daosi is still the right prime minister. As long as he is in court, Zhao Zhi will never dare to do it without any scruples.

Bypass the political hall to make any decisions.

Li Xun said: "Liu Zhigu and Liu Zhongyuan are both prime ministers, and their advice should be useful."

"not enough."

Li Yi shook his head: "If Yang Daosi is willing to stand up and speak, the emperor may compromise."

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, and then said hesitantly: "What kind of relationship does King Chu have with my cousin? Will he help me?"

Li Yi smiled faintly, looked at Li Xun, and said with some meaning: "The King of Chu has succeeded to the throne, and the Yang family is the first in the world. Now that Xun'er has succeeded, the Yang family is still the first in the world, or maybe others

After succeeding to the throne, Yang's status will not change in any way."

Li Xun glanced at Li Yi and fell into deep thought.

At this time, Wan Niang walked slowly up to Li Yi and whispered a few words in his ear.

Li Yi nodded and stood up. It was obvious that he had something to do and could not talk to Li Xun any more.

"Gou'er, go find your cousin and ask Xun'er to talk to Yang Daosi. Maybe we can come up with a result."

After Li Yi said these words, he turned around and left.

Cheng Fei is also a veteran concubine. She is usually very low-key and friendly to everyone. A few months ago, Zhao Zhi was lucky and was pregnant. However, the fetus was unstable. She seldom went out recently and was always recuperating in Pingyu Palace.

, Zhao Zhi went to visit today. Perhaps because he was a little older, Concubine Cheng suddenly showed signs of miscarriage. The imperial physician in the palace had rushed there. As the only two concubines in the palace, they were in charge of everything in the palace. In fact,
