Chapter 682 Regarding the palace coup, the seniors of the Tang Dynasty need to give some advice!
"Zhao Ji's imperial power is unstable, this is a coup!"
Regarding this request, Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and then raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Since Gongsun Zhao was wanted and the observation was completed, he paid less attention to the situation in the palace. Unexpectedly, he heard from a eunuch that he asked the officials to go down and bury him with him.
Perhaps for modern people, it is normal to think that the emperor is stupid and should step down and die, but ancient people who lived under imperial power rarely dared to think this way.
Thunder, rain, and dew are all due to the king's favor. If the king wants his ministers to die, then the ministers have to die. This is the mainstream thought.
As for peeling off this halo and seeing that the so-called emperor is just a mortal with a nose and two eyes, there are only a few people who can hate him, curse him, even poison him and kill him.
Nowadays, a eunuch can say such insightful words, naturally because of the act of matricide, which was also never allowed in ancient times.
There is no real evidence from outside rumors, but there are many people who have experienced it in the palace. They know that Queen Mother Xiang was really harmed by Zhao Ji, and their senses are different.
Hearing that Jia Xiang had collected evidence, Li Yan couldn't help but be curious: "Prince Jian...does he want to succeed?"
Boss Jia hurriedly said: "Prince Jian is the thirteenth son of Shenzong and the half-brother of the late emperor. At that time, Zhang Xianggong recommended Prince Jian to succeed him. Now that the officials are unruly, of course he can succeed!"
Li Yan secretly shook his head. If the Queen Mother had not acted selfishly, it would indeed be King Jian Zhao Si and not King Duan Zhao Ji who is sitting on the throne now. But there is no such thing as reality. One cannot be replaced by the other. Being the king of a country is not a good idea.
Isn't it child's play? A coup is not just about righteousness.
But now that we understand the other party's goal, many things can be connected: "So you lied to others to return to your hometown, but you are planning to follow your uncle to follow the dragon. If things don't go your way, after escaping from Bianjing, there are four ways to escape.
, but the calculation is very deep!"
Boss Jia was lying on the ground, trembling: "Your Majesty has taught us that disabled people like us will either be humble and humble all our lives. If we want to stand out, we should take such risks..."
Li Yan's eyes moved slightly, and he had a new plan, and continued to shape the character of Tongguan from the underworld: "If you can achieve success from the dragon, I can absorb the energy of the real dragon and avoid disasters. Otherwise, I will also have to delay
You will go to the eighteen levels of hell, suffer day and night, and never be reincarnated!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the hands rushed towards him quickly, scaring Mr. Jia into screaming.
But when the familiar voice dissipated in his ears, nothing seemed to happen. Instead, the cold atmosphere in the secret room began to dissipate.
"Leave...leave?"
Jia Lao stood up in great trembling. Seeing that Tong Guan's ghost seemed to have left, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
His first reaction was to rush to meet with Jia Xiang and ask his uncle to invite eminent Taoist monks to exorcise ghosts and ward off evil spirits so that Tong Guan's ghost would never come near him again.
But then, his body felt an indescribable coldness, and a cold air spread through his limbs and bones, and finally gathered in his arms.
Boss Jia suddenly changed color, rolled up his sleeves tremblingly, and turned his arms over.
What made his eyes dim was that two clear black palm prints were branded on the lower part of his arm.
"Sir, please forgive me!
"
…
Not to mention that Tong Guan was dead and still had such a deterrent effect, Li Yan skillfully floated out of the secret stronghold and came to Xiao Hei's side.
A group of cats gathered behind Xiao Hei, who were originally preparing to carry evidence. When they saw him coming out empty-handed, they waved their paws to let the cats disperse, showing a questioning look.
Li Yan gave an overview of the matter, and finally concluded: "Now the key evidence left by Li Xian has been transferred and has been transferred to the hands of the great eunuch Jia Xiang in the palace. This person is allied with Xixia and has supporters of Jian.
Wang Zhao seems to be following the dragon's will, but he is very restless."
Xiao Hei tried to write on the ground and added a punctuation mark: "Is the evidence useful?"
Li Yan looked at the words that were inevitably a little skewed, but there was no difficulty in identifying them. He smiled and said: "It's very useful. I just read part of it. Li Xian is indeed someone who once managed the army's finances. He collected the evidence very completely. This
If it is exposed, it will be enough for these generals to drink a pot of water."
If these evidences are corruption by civil servants, it may be the ending in "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty" in which the emperor burned all the evidence. After all, ruling the world with scholar-bureaucrats would really involve too many things, and that would be unsettling.
rule.
But the evidence of the general's crime is the real evidence. If the court gets it, it will be like a treasure. It can just cure this group of restless warriors. That's why Li Xian will do everything possible to collect it. After the generals like Liu Yanqing, who have close relations with the civil servants, will also
Feeling worried.
Xiao Hei tilted his head and continued to write: "Jin Jingshan?"
Li Yan said: "This eunuch does have a magic weapon from Jin Jingshan. It is used for communication. It should be given by Jia Xiang. As for whether Jin Jingshan has the intention to follow the dragon, it is not yet certain. Generally speaking, Taoist sects are not very good at it.
Participating in such a big event, but this sect is very eager for gold and silver, it’s hard to say.”
There were too many words, so Xiao Hei directly switched to the meow language: "Meow woo woo (I know where Ling Zhen lives, and when I followed him the past few days, he lived there with an old Taoist priest, and there was no one else around)."
Li Yan nodded: "Without further delay, let's go there and have a look..."
Thinking of what might happen next, he couldn't help but look forward to it: "As for the palace coup, there is really no precedent in the Song Dynasty except for the sound of candle shadow and axe, which is unknown whether it is true or false, but the officials of the Tang Dynasty are very familiar with it. As a senior, I
, it is necessary to give some advice!"
…
Ling Zhen stood in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky, with a faint look of worry in his eyes.
It was not that he was worried about being caught by a cat that day, nor was it because he could have been an official in the imperial court. After the bronze medal for beast control was lost, Liu Yanqing immediately regretted it, but because of the conversation he had just had with his uncle,
It made him feel very uneasy.
"My uncle said that what he does next has nothing to do with Jin Jingshan and me, so he asked me not to interfere..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hu Tu, if he really did something big, how could it have nothing to do with us?"
Ling Zhen murmured to himself, he would not dare to refute his elders like this in person, but at this moment, the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. He started to sigh, and naturally he could not find the two figures standing behind him.
Seeing that he never turned around, Li Yan and Xiao Hei could only cough lightly.
Ling Zhen suddenly became excited. Without saying a word, he ran forward. Just after taking a few steps, he felt his collar being grabbed, and then he flew back like a cloud. When his feet were firmly on the ground, he felt a hand holding him.
A familiar voice came into my ears: "Don't be afraid, we don't mean any harm."
Ling Zhen was so scared that he closed his eyes tightly: "Hero, spare your life! I didn't see you, I really didn't!"
Li Yan put him down: "Okay, since we are all here, do you think you can pass the test just because you didn't see it?"
Ling Zhen sighed and slowly opened a crack, and saw a man and a cat standing in front of him. He was majestic and majestic. He looked at the man carefully and exclaimed in surprise: "But Lin Erlang is in front of him?"
Li Yan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you recognize me?"
Ling Zhen hurriedly said: "I learned from my uncle that the traitor in Jinhua Mountain has no son, and it was your Excellency who got rid of him. It was a great danger that occupied Wuyou Cave. Many ghost weapons were sacrificed, but they were destroyed by martial arts."
, I admire you very much! I have also been to the medical clinic, and I happened to see you arresting the cult thieves. You did not hide anything and dealt with them calmly. You are truly a hero!"
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
The [Thing Hall of Thoughts] in Li Yan's mind showed the guests he saw at Sui'an Medical Center when he arrested Shopkeeper Sun. Sure enough, he saw Ling Zhen at the door. He just glanced at it and had no impression at all: "
It turns out that you were standing at the door at that time..."
Ling Zhen was overjoyed: "Lin Erlang remembers me? If I had known this, how could I have chased your raccoon slave? It's really wrong!"
It seems that what he said was not that he was tied up by Xiao Hei, but that the two sides were reversed. Xiao Hei curled his lips and didn't bother to argue. Li Yan said sternly: "Brother Ling is a man of temperament, so I'll get straight to the point. You
My uncle, Taoist Ling, is going to do something important that involves life and death, right?"
Ling Zhen's expression changed, and after a moment of silence he said, "I don't know what uncle is going to do, but judging from his tone, it is indeed extremely dangerous..."
Li Yan said: "We are here just for this matter. Is there any way for Brother Ling to find your uncle?"
Ling Zhen hesitated for a moment again, thinking of his uncle's insistent back and this man's chivalrous reputation, he nodded and said: "I have it!"
…
"It's really Prince Jian's Mansion!"
On a dilapidated wall of Prince Jian's Mansion, two people and one cat stuck their heads out and looked at the dim lights in the inner house.
On the surface, this was a normal prince's residence, but Li Yan could detect that the guards patrolling in the dark were somewhat strict. He quickly caught up with the guards at the residence of the Queen Mother Xiang's brother, the Prince of Yongjia County.
To a certain extent.
Ling Zhen looked at another compass in his hand. This time it was not a magic weapon but a person: "My uncle is in that direction, eight hundred steps away!"
Li Yan said: "Xiao Hei, please take care of Brother Ling. I'll be back as soon as I can."
Just as Ling Zhen was about to express his different opinions, he saw that the person's figure had disappeared after the words fell. He couldn't help but glance at the big cat next to him, and Digu said: "How can there be a raccoon slave to take care of people... Although this raccoon slave is indeed quite good.
sharp……"
Xiao Hei moved his paws gracefully and practiced calligraphy on the ground without paying any attention to it.
In just a short period of time, Li Yan had directly used his sixth sense to sneak in.
All the footsteps, breathing, smells and even heartbeats around him were under control. He almost strolled into it and quickly arrived at the location pointed by Ling Zhen.
But it was empty here, no one was there.
Li Yan listened carefully, and with the ultimate hearing ability after opening his ear consciousness, he could faintly hear voices coming from underground.
"There is a secret room."
He could enter even if he looked carefully for the mechanism, but it was obviously easier with Xunyoujia around. He put the magic weapon on his leg and sneaked underground.
After only diving about three meters, the sound became clearer.
"Your Highness, what these palace maids said is absolutely true. On the day the Queen Mother passed away, the fire in Funing Palace was set up by the officials themselves. There were still eagles weeping blood. It can be seen that this act is not tolerated by heaven and earth, and God has warned it!"
"Gu... alas... Brother Eleven, have you really done such a rebellious thing?"
In a rather spacious secret room, sitting or standing, there were more than twenty people plotting.
Among them, the young man sitting in the main seat, with a handsome face and noble temperament, is obviously the king of Jian Zhao.
Li Yan's eyes fell on this person first.
If we take the route of driving Zhao Ji out of office and re-supporting the new emperor, then King Jian Zhao Si is really the first in line to succeed. However, he later determined that the Song Dynasty was not just an emperor's problem, and he had already firmly decided to change the dynasty. For this person
No more attention.
Now looking at King Jian's performance and feeling the hesitation and fear in his heart, Li Yan was glad that he did not make that attempt, because this man was probably not as good as Zhao Ji, let alone compared with Li Hong.
Although Li Hong had a gentle temperament, he was never timid and had a sense of responsibility. Even though Empress Li Zhiwu and his wife were so oppressive towards their children, they never flinched in their actions.
Being timid without responsibility is a taboo for those in power.
But thinking about it carefully, I don’t blame Zhao Si. After all, he grew up in the palace with fine clothes and fine food. Now he is only 18 years old, and he is about to suddenly seize the throne in a coup. It is a kind of thing to expect him to be like the young hero.
Extravagant hope.
Li Yan looked away, looked at the others, and found two eunuchs standing next to Zhao Si.
One has a kind face and kind eyes, and there is some worry in his eyes, while the other has a commanding aura. When he just told the evidence of the palace maid's crime, it was also from this person's mouth. It must be the eunuch Jia Xiang in the palace.
There was also a strong-armed general in the field, but he was an acquaintance. Banzhi commander Zhong Shihao was dismissed due to his inability to protect the Queen Mother.
Except for the middle-aged man standing on the outside, dressed as a Taoist priest, who should be Ling Zhen's uncle, the others are all civil servants.
He originally glanced at him, but Li Yan's eyes paused for a moment, and soon fell on an old man with a strong bookish air, and frowned slightly:
"Why is this person here? Fortunately, I caught up with him, otherwise he might have hurt my family..."
