...A breeze blew by, and the bells under the eaves rang in the wind, and the corners of the green clothes fluttered gently, as if with a bit of smile; the crisp bells floated up with the wind, echoing between heaven and earth.
The story of Zhu Xian ends like this, just like a friend traveling far away, and you know he will never come back.
The second floor of Changle Bookstore has been converted into a private room. There is a girl near the window. She is very thin, a little fragile and thin. Her thick black hair is tied up. She does not apply any makeup and looks fair and tender. Her big eyes are Her most striking feature.
The sunshine outside the window shines in, making Li Lizhi's figure look even more unreal. In the quiet and peaceful room, there are books on the mahogany table.
All noisy sounds were blocked out the window, except for the sound of fingertips turning the pages of a book.
Changsun Chong opened the door and walked in. Seeing this situation, he was suddenly surprised.
"What's the matter?" Li Lizhi did not raise her head, but her slight voice seemed a bit rigorous, which made people unconsciously respectful and convinced.
This is Princess Changle of the Tang Dynasty. She was once the dream of many people. Now she is the fiancée of his eldest son Chong. Originally, they were going to get married a few days ago. However, it was postponed for a year because of his sudden death. A few days ago , it was another day when the queen suddenly became seriously ill. I guess we don’t know what will happen next year? So it was delayed.
She doesn't know why, but she still doesn't break off the engagement even though she doesn't like Changsun Chong.
"There is news from the palace that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince likes Turkic culture. It has caused the impeachment of many ministers in the court. Many ministers in the court have begun to suspect that Your Majesty has plans to depose the Crown Prince. Therefore, my father hopes that you can persuade the Crown Prince. Your Highness, I hope he can apologize to His Majesty and ease the relationship." Changsun Chong explained with a solemn expression. The Changsun family had bet on Li Chengqian, so they naturally did not want Li Chengqian to be deposed.
Li Lizhi's hand while turning the book paused for a moment, and after a while, she continued to turn the pages without looking away from the book, saying: "No, you and I both need to know that in the battle for imperial power, you will die or I will live. We don't It is necessary to fight. My father knows what the eldest grandson family has done. I went to the palace to visit my mother a few days ago, and she told me that my father has some opinions about the eldest grandson family and hopes that the eldest grandson family can clarify their status."
When Changsun Chong heard this, a chill ran down his back and his chest trembled. He suddenly remembered that in the court, the Changsun family made friends with ministers everywhere. Isn't this just forming a clique for personal gain? This is what His Majesty hates the most.
Changsun Wuji occupies a high position. Recently, he has been helping His Majesty handle government affairs. He has come into contact with some rights that he had not been exposed to before. The eldest son's family has become greedy. The eldest son's family happens to be relatives, who have violated taboos, and they are the most powerful in the court. What's striking, come to think of it, is that the Fang and Wei families, as well as Cheng and Li and other military generals, have hardly spoken in court recently. Did he always think that his father, Sun Wuji, was in power?
No wonder Changsun Wuji recently asked Changsun Chong to go out for a leisurely trip. When the incident involving His Royal Highness came out, he immediately sent a message and asked him to find Princess Changle for help, while he went into the palace to pay homage to the Queen.
Now think about it, Changsun Chong himself only stood at the bottom of the crowd when he went to court, and he didn't see it clearly at all. In addition, Changsun Wuji had many followers in the court, some of which even Changsun Chong didn't know about. They usually worked for Changsun's family. That is to say, I support Changsun Wuji's opinion. However, I remember that Changsun Wuji once raised his opinion, and nearly half of the people in the court agreed and seconded it.
Dozens of ministers echoed Changsun Wuji at the same time, which shows how much control the Changsun family has over the court. In the future, they will only be jealous of those in power. As for relying on the queen's face to gain trust, that is too much to think about.
In the Tang Dynasty, the status of women was very low. Although the queen's surname was Changsun, in the eyes of the Changsun family, Changsun Wugou was just a tool.
Without the support of the mother clan, it is useless for you to be a queen.
Changsun Chong is now thinking that he must remind Changsun Wuji when he comes back to prevent him from going astray.
"Uncle, you don't need to remind me. He has been in the court for so many years and is much smarter than you. He knows that he has gone too far, so he will naturally make up for it. When he enters the palace now, he should go to his mother, thinking that he can plead guilty to his father through her.
"Li Lizhi seemed to be able to read minds. When Sun Chong didn't answer, she knew what he was thinking.
"What about the prince?" Changsun Chong was surprised by Li Lizhi's political acumen, and felt a little sorry for her. It's a pity that she is a daughter, not a prince, otherwise, she would have had a chance to compete for that position.
Li Lizhi was silent for a while, her attitude remained as calm as before, and she spoke in a calm voice: "Brother Prince's position has always been stable. What we should worry about is the relationship between Brother Prince and Brother Wei. If their relationship is reconciled, what will happen to Brother Prince's position?"
Steady as a mountain, the father is to the prince and brother
The attitude of the prince will also change for the better. If the relationship between the prince's brother and the king's brother Wei is on fire, then both of them will make the father angry, because the father does not like the relationship between brothers hurting each other. If one day, the father's patience wears away.
After all, neither the prince brother nor the King of Wei will have a good end."
"I understand." Changsun Chong's political accomplishment is not bad. After listening to Li Lizhi's words, he quickly understood that everything depends on His Majesty's wishes. His Majesty wants Li Chengqian to continue to be the prince, and his status will be as stable as Mount Tai.
King Wei has no chance at all. If His Majesty does not intend to make Li Chengqian the crown prince, then everything is possible.
Manna Hall.
Li Shimin was checking what Changsun Wuji's retainers had done in the court in the past few days, especially the things they formed for personal gain, and every word they said to the prince when they entered the East Palace. These things were laid out in detail on the table in front of Li Shimin.
superior.
Li Shimin remembered in a daze that once upon a time, Changsun Wuji had always been the person he trusted most. They had been playing together since they were young. After the incident, Changsun Wuji became Li Shimin's military commander. Later, Fang Du and Changsun
Wuji just started to help him deal with the logistics of the army. You must know the logistics of the army, which is the lifeblood of the army. It can be said that if the logistics is stable, the army will always be stable.
Li Shimin had always placed high hopes on him, and Changsun Wuji also did a good job. He devoted all his family's efforts to help Li Shimin conquer the world, and helped Li Shimin fight for the position of prince, and later became the emperor.
There is also a key figure between them, and that is the Queen Changsun Wuji. Once, it was Changsun Wuji who made the decision to marry Changsun Wuji to Li Shimin. After the two got married, their relationship has been very good.
The relationship is also very good.
Li Shimin regarded Changsun Wuji as his most trusted right-hand man. After he became the emperor, Changsun Wuji also followed Changsun Wuji's advice and not to be greedy for power. However, I don't know when, everything changed.
