Chapter 61 Chapter 1

Chapter 1 of the third book Seizing the Inheritance In the 25th year of Dayong and Wuwei, Yihai, since the incident of the household department, the government and the public have been silent, calmly waiting for the wind and rain.Taizong excused himself from the imperial court due to his illness, and stayed out all day. ——"Yong History.Taizong Benji" In Yihai, the second year of Tongtai in Southern Chu, Zhe gradually recovered from his illness. Although the government and the people were peaceful at that time, the matter of seizing the heirloom was ready to go. Zhe was in charge of King Yong, and the only thing he needed was patience.

——"The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties."The Legend of Jiang Suiyun" The spring is warm, the wind is gentle, and the trees in the cold garden are already full of shade. Since Shangshu Liang Jinqian was suddenly killed by poison in the Hubu turmoil last year, the situation has suddenly calmed down inexplicably. All the officials of the household department resigned, those who were downgraded, and those who were fined. After the cleaning of the household department, the new minister of the household department was Sanyuan Hande. The background has been unsuccessful for many years. This time the Ministry of Households checks, only he has the most clear accounts, so Li Yuan promoted him by leaps and bounds. Han De is impartial. He only has one emperor in his heart, and the crown prince dare not belittle him. , although the prince inserted a lot of hands in again, the household department is no longer as ruthless as it used to be.

In May of last year, the news of the demon sect's disciples appearing in Xianyang shocked the whole world. In the end, the prostitute was caught by Fengyimen. Afterwards, he personally sent someone to deliver the ashes to the Northern Han Dynasty. Jing Wuji, the suzerain of the Demon Sect, was very indifferent. He neither made trouble nor apologized, so the matter was left alone. Afterwards, the political situation in Dayong suddenly became unprecedentedly quiet. The prince only managed the government step by step every day. Except for not letting go of the military, King Yong only devoted himself to studying in the palace on weekdays. He neither made friends with courtiers nor recruited wise men. Li Yuan's action is to often send some failed scholars and poor scholars to serve as officials in Youzhou. Li Yuan allows Youzhou to choose officials on his own, so he doesn't interfere.Both sides are keeping a low profile, so the situation in Dayong has seen unprecedented peace and tranquility, but everyone with a heart knows that this is just the depression before the storm, and the crown prince and King Yong are already in a situation of immortality.

Regardless of the ups and downs outside, there is a strange scene in the cold garden. In the gazebo, King Yong is looking at the chessboard leisurely. It was his turn, and outside the gazebo, a scholar in white was on the lawn, lying on all fours, pretending to be a mount, and on top of him, a little girl in red was shouting in a delicate voice, "Drive, drive, Daddy run away." I have fully recovered from this year's peace of mind and rest. Although I still look frail, my face is radiant, and I am no longer the pale look that will die at any time.However, after being a "horse" for a long time, he was already out of breath, so he had to beg for forgiveness: "Lan Lan, Daddy is dying, and you don't want to tire Daddy, no one will read Brother Jun's letter to you. "

The soft blue and black eyes rolled for a while, finally nodded, slipped off my body, and said in a childish voice: "Daddy, I'm going to see the princess." I smiled and said: "Not today, if the princess goes to see the princess in a few days, I will ask her to take you there, okay?" Rou Lan pursed her lips and said: "The princess said that Lan Lan can visit her often?" I smiled wryly, this is not what we have the final say on, since the princess was repairing in Wuchen Nunnery, her marriage with Wei Ying has been postponed, the emperor did not cancel the marriage, but he did not force the princess to get married After Wei Ying, he didn't dare to marry a wife, and he didn't dare to ask for a big marriage.Rumors about me and the princess have been circulating for a few days, but after all, I have never met the princess, so under the suppression of King Yong, and without the help of the prince, the rumors quickly dissipated. The disputed Princess Changle forced her out, and she didn't want to anger Li Yuan, so these rumors were quickly forgotten.

In fact, I think Emperor Yong may have heard some rumors, but since I have no affair with Changle and have not met each other, he can't punish me because Changle may have feelings for me, so this year, I still have a very good life Yes, but, I often think of Princess Changle, recalling the only two meetings scene by scene. Later, Princess Yong often went to see the princess, and Rou Lan was often taken by the princess. Who doesn't know that Concubine Yong regards Roulan as her own, and who doesn't know that the eldest son Li Jun is in Youzhou, and every month he will send envoys to Beijing to report to King Yong, and the envoys will always bring some little girl's toys and a piece of clothing every time. Therefore, Rou Lan's appearance in the Great Yong Palace has become a matter of course.Princess Changle likes Roulan, and everyone only thinks that her knees are empty, so she likes little girls. Although some people think of the possibility of "love the house and black", no one dares to bring this "nothing" thing to the table.And in order to meet Roulan, Princess Changle actually lives in the palace for half a year. After all, it is normal for Princess Yong to visit the palace to meet the queen and noble concubine. If she always goes to Wuchen to see the princess, it will be worrying Did the princess get too close to King Yong?Therefore, even the eldest grandson Guifei loves Roulan very much, and sometimes keeps Roulan in the palace for a few days.Rou Lan also met Emperor Yong Li Yuan, and Li Yuan also liked this naughty elf girl very much, so no one dared to talk too much.

Although I haven't met the princess this year, and I haven't even tried to ask her if she really fell in love with me, I can't help but send the new poems to her through Princess Yong, and she doesn't reply, just often Give Rou Lan some rewards such as jade pendant amulets.I heard from Concubine Yong that in the past year, the princess looked very good, not only often laughed, but also looked cheerful in front of Emperor Yong and Concubine Changsun. Seeing her like this, the two felt that there was no need to rush to force her to marry and make her depressed.If there is anything that makes her unhappy, it is probably Wei Ying's tenderness offensive. Speaking of which, Wei Ying is sincere to the princess. The emperor and the eldest grandson noble concubine were very moved and supported by this gentle offensive of tenderness. Although Princess Changle was not tempted, Wei Ying was polite and never aggressive. , always be courteous, and the princess is a gentle person, and she doesn't want to refuse with bad words, so she can only be cold and alienated, but for the marriage between Wei Ying and the princess, the emperor and the eldest grandson noble concubine are happy to see it come true, Therefore, Princess Changle inevitably "encounters" with Wei Ying from time to time.A few days ago, I thought that since Wei Ying was infatuated with pursuing her, I might as well be indifferent. If the princess could match her husband, I could let go of my worries, so I didn't let Roulan enter the palace for more than a month. Said that the princess was in a bad mood during this period, and went to live in Wuchen nunnery again. In this case, if I still don’t understand the princess’ intentions, then I’m probably the biggest idiot in the world, so I won’t prohibit Roulan from entering Although the two of them never met each other, it was strange that they could always feel the warmth in their hearts. Although they were close to each other, they felt that they were not separated.

No matter what, I finally let Roulan go down. It’s funny to say that Roulan still can’t read. His son Li Jun sent letters one by one. Pulling me to teach her to read, I can only laugh, even if I want to teach her to read and write, I have to wait two years to understand this letter. In desperation, I have to read the letter to her, but the content is actually nothing , but where did she go today, what interesting things did she see, but this Li Jun is very good at talking, every time Rou Lan heard about it, she would make a fuss about going to Youzhou to play, luckily she wouldn't make a fuss for too long.Although Roulan is still young, she already has a shy heart. She absolutely refuses to let others see the contents of the letter, and only asks me to read it for her. That's why I can threaten her to let me go, and I decided to teach her to read later. Otherwise, what would I do without this trump card.

Seeing that I finally got up and led Rou Lan towards the pavilion, Li Zhi smiled and said, "Suiyun, you're here, well let's forget about this round." I looked at the chessboard and saw that Li Zhi's chess pieces were in disarray, and said with a smile, "People say that those who are good at fighting are good at fighting. If it is a battle on the battlefield, Xiao Shunzi will definitely lose, but if it is a game of chess, His Highness can only bow down." .” Xiao Shunzi put away the chessboard and chess pieces expressionlessly. He had no intention of agreeing at all. He just looked at me mockingly. I couldn't help touching my nose. To be honest, I played chess with him, and now this kid can make me three pieces. .

Sitting down and picking up the teacup, Xiao Shunzi had already handed Roulan back to the concubine's maid, and felt a little sore all over. After drinking a cup of hot tea, I felt refreshed and couldn't help moaning comfortably. Li Zhi laughed and said, "Yesterday Qin Qing reprimanded Pei Yun, the commander of the northern battalion of the Forbidden Army, saying that he did not repair the curtains." I smiled slightly and said: "This is Li Hanyou's idea, now Qin Qing is obedient to his wife's orders." Qin Qing and Li Hanyou were probably the happiest this year. She married Qin Qing half a year ago. Shortly after getting married, Qin Qing was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army. It is in charge of Fuyuan General Qin Yi, but Qin Qing is the eldest son of Qin Yi, which is of course different compared to others. Although Qin Yi still has not delegated power, Qin Qing can still mobilize part of the forbidden army now.Now Qin Qing is already a well-known young general in Dayong, and Princess Li Hanyou of Jingjiang is already the respected princess and a disciple of Fengyi Sect, although her marriage makes it impossible for her to be an inner disciple of Fengyi Sect. But her lofty status in Fengyimen is still very obvious. Such a couple naturally attracts the attention of thousands of people. What's more rare is that they are very affectionate, making Dayong the envy of the government and the public.

Li Zhi sneered and said, "A few days ago, Pei Yun formally married his concubine into the sect, but his wife got a divorce letter. It's no wonder that Li Hanyou was furious. Mrs. Pei Xue Qiuxue is a disciple of Fengyi Sect. It is said that she has an affair with Li Hanyou." Same sister." I picked up the teacup and said calmly: "It can only be blamed on that woman's stupidity. Pei Yun made it clear that he didn't want to marry her. When Pei Yun went to Xue's house to plead guilty that day, he made it very clear that he already had a wife and was pregnant. If The Xue family is willing to retire and pay the price, but Miss Xue insists on marrying into the Pei family. If he didn't come home, his methods were too aggressive, which made Pei Yun stay away, and now he is doing things that harm his concubine's house and newborn babies. If he didn't find out in time, this would be two lives. Killed her, but it is reasonable for Qin Qing to blame Pei Yun, no matter what, this is indeed considered to be weak and unrepairable." Li Zhi said: "In this way, Fengyimen naturally refused to give up. Although they couldn't intervene directly due to human relations, they accused Pei Yun of neglecting his wife and had already quarreled with Shaolin several times." I laughed and said: "Although what they said is right, Shaolin simply acquiesced in Pei Yun's behavior. Pei Yun is their carefully selected disciple, and they absolutely don't want Pei Yun to have any connection with Fengyi Sect. " Li Zhi nodded and said: "Although that is the case, Shaolin will not turn against Fengyimen after all. Although Fengyimen cannot openly trouble Pei Yun, Li Hanyou can still use Qin Qing to embarrass Pei Yun. What do you think should be done?" , Pei Yun is the nail you put in the imperial army with great difficulty, so you can't just give up." I shook my head and said: "Your Highness is too famous. I just led a way. It is His Highness's own ability to make Pei Yun sincerely loyal to His Highness. Since ancient times, good ministers have chosen masters. If His Highness is not benevolent, righteous and wise, how could Pei Yun be willing to serve him? This time His Highness has also offered to help His Highness, which will surely make Shaolin Temple truly support His Highness. Although Shaolin had intended to cooperate with His Highness to deal with Fengyimen in the past, but because of the emperor and the crown prince, they could only support it secretly. This time Fengyimen was too arrogant. I'm afraid it will anger Shaolin, this is His Highness's opportunity." Li Zhi sighed and said, "Suiyun, my king admires you very much. Your actions a year ago made people of insight in the government and the public see some of the prince's face. Now even if they have not decided to support me, they have turned to neutral. In the past, many people thought that the crown prince was the crown prince, and he had no fault of virtue, so even if he thought this king was wise, he would always stay away from him. Now, although I followed your order and did not recruit talents casually, I can feel that they are more willing to get close Prince Yong's Mansion, in just over a year, you let me turn the situation around, I don't know how to thank you." I said lightly: "This is also His Highness's willingness to accept my opinion. I told His Highness not to act, to keep a low profile, and His Highness readily accepted. This year, His Highness has not changed, so the crown prince can't attack His Highness with the reason of His Highness's high achievements. He All kinds of embarrassments made people feel more and more sympathetic to His Highness, but Shi Yu was ordered by His Highness to select officials in Youzhou, but everyone thought His Highness was doing it for the sake of fiefdom. Guaranteed, the prince will lose his reserve position within this year." Li Zhi was puzzled and said, "Although the prince has lost some of his support, there is no possibility of him being abolished. He has been very cautious in the past year. How can you be sure that his position can be abolished?" I smiled mysteriously and said: "Your Highness has been working hard to insert people into the prince's power these years. In the past, because of the prince's cautiousness and the strength of Lu Jingzhong and Fengyimen, it was always difficult to achieve what he wanted. He lost the hearts of the people in the matter, and lost the trust of his subordinates because of the act of killing people, and Lu Jingzhong and Feng Yimen were also at odds with each other. Hasn't His Highness successfully penetrated into the backbone of the Prince's forces? You have come into contact with the core, but some actions of His Royal Highness still cannot be hidden from you, you really don't know what His Royal Highness is doing?" Li Zhi smiled awkwardly and said, "I know a little bit about this. I heard that the crown prince didn't know what was going on, and fell in love with the brothel. He has just restrained himself, recently he has not engaged in such flirtatious activities, but always goes to the harem to accompany his father, emperor and queen, and be filial to them." I sneered and said: "That's because he changed his way of pastime, he fell in love with a concubine of the emperor Xinna." Li Zhi was startled, and said: "How is this possible? This is an incest matter. If the emperor knew about it, wouldn't it be possible to blame him? I'm afraid it's possible to abolish his position." Having said this, Li Zhi paused. After a long while, he said: "I'm afraid it will not be so easy to abolish the prince with the affairs of the palace. After all, the harem cannot interfere with the foundation of the country." I said meaningfully: "If His Highness the Crown Prince has some skills, the Emperor may not abolish his reserve position, but the Emperor has already lost trust in the Crown Prince. Now, for the Emperor, the Prince's role is probably to suppress Your Highness. If this incident happened, even if the emperor had no intentions, he might severely punish the prince. Regardless of whether the emperor intends to abolish the prince's position, he would always express his attitude. In this way, the prince would naturally be full of worries and hesitation. Doubt, this is the result of what I want. His Royal Highness is ashamed in his heart. Even if he keeps his reserve position, he may worry day and night whether the emperor will settle accounts after autumn. I'm afraid it will cause more dissatisfaction with the emperor, not to mention that the affairs of the palace are not important. Since ancient times, the relationship between the emperor and his son has never been strong, and it is not new for father and son to fight each other. At that time, I am afraid that the crown prince will be more suspicious of the emperor than his majesty. There's more to come." Li Zhi said: "But Concubine Ji Gui and others will definitely help in every possible way, so I'm afraid it still won't help." I said lightly: "If they are wise and safe, I will worry about it. The more they do, the more flaws they will have. Doesn't Your Highness want them to show their true colors?" Li Zhi fell into deep thought, with a gleam of joy on his face, he said: "Suiyun is such a good plan, but the evil is not revealed, how can this king punish without guilt."
