Chapter 322 Li Xian: Dare to alienate the harmonious relationship between the king and his brother?

"Your Highness? See, you are not that slave, why are you so ignorant? You want to call me the King!"

After Li Xian was stunned for a moment, he moved to the main seat and sat down. Looking at Zhuo Wei who was kneeling on the ground, he shook his head and laughed: "Get up!"

Zhuo Wei kowtowed again, still loudly said: "His Royal Highness Xie Yong!"

He raised his head and looked at the noble prince who was second only to the prince.

Among the four sons of Empress Wu, Li Xian is the most talented and handsome, with a full forehead and smooth cheeks. He is wearing a purple silk robe with a large family flower. Extravagance.

In Zhuo Wei's eyes, it was the purple air rising, which looked like an emperor, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty commended His Highness for his conduct when he was pleading guilty with hundreds of officials. Qianhu, there are many promotions in the mansion! The humble title of Your Highness is definitely not impolite, but worthy of the name!"

Li Xian raised his brows, and immediately became happy: "So that's how it is!"

Zhang Daan said in a deep voice, "Are you here to read out the imperial edict?"

Seeing that the old man was also wearing a purple robe, Zhuo Wei thought that only Wang Fu was the third rank in the palace, so he hurriedly said respectfully: "To Wang Fu, I am here to congratulate His Royal Highness Yong Wang!"

There was deep disgust in Zhang Daan's eyes, and he said coldly: "If that's the case, step back!"

Zhuo Wei's complexion changed slightly, and he didn't quite understand why this guy didn't feel any joy at all, he could only look at Li Xian eagerly.

Li Xian said with a smile: "This king understands that the common people have a happy event, and they still have to reward those who announce the good news! Come here, take five hundred pieces of cloth and give it to this plum blossom inner guard!"

The rewards from the palace are all high-quality cloth, and five hundred pieces are quite expensive. Needless to say, the crown prince, Li Xian and the other three sons also opened their mansions as princes since they were young.

In the past, Zhuo Wei would also be very happy to get this wealth suddenly, but he came this time with a bigger goal in mind, so he hurriedly bowed down again: "Thank you for the reward, Your Highness, I still have something to say..."

He raised his head slightly and looked at Zhang Daan.

Zhang Da appeases his beard, and there is a sneer on the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, Li Xian's face darkens, revealing displeasure: "Speak up if you have something to say!"

Zhuo Wei reviewed Ming Chongyan's care in his mind, and still felt that it was too bold, but he had no choice but to shoot, and said ruthlessly: "The emperor has praised His Highness very much. There are many opportunities to participate in government affairs and prepare for the future..."

After hearing this, Li Xian couldn't believe his ears, and interrupted: "What did you say?"

Zhuo Wei gritted his teeth and finished the last sentence: "Plum Blossom Neiwei is willing to help His Highness succeed!"

Li Xian finally made sure that he heard correctly, and suddenly stood up and scolded: "Bold! You are so brave!!"

Zhuo Wei also felt that he was bold, but he couldn't say that this was Shangguan's intention, so he could only bow his head and say: "The above are all words from the bottom of my heart, the opportunity is rare, Your Highness, please think twice!"

Li Xian was stunned. He was very happy to learn that he was granted the title and could be called His Highness just like his elder brother, but at this moment, he was only shocked and uneasy.

A fierce look appeared in Zhang Daan's eyes.

As Li Xian's Wang Fu, the relationship between the two parties is extremely close, one is prosperous and the other is damaged, and it would be hypocritical to say that he has no idea at all.

After all, the prince has been in poor health since he was a child, and it is not a matter of one or two years to be weak and sick. It is not an unforeseen anecdote if he really wants to die young.

If something like that happens, King Yong and Li Xian will be able to take the throne naturally, there is no need to fight at all.

On the contrary, if the prince is still alive, it is useless for Li Xian to fight.

Everyone knows that King Yong is talented, but he has an unruly temperament and is not stable enough, while the prince is virtuous, gentle, and able to govern the country well.

The selection of the crown prince of the country is not about taking the imperial examination. The crown prince is undoubtedly much more suitable than King Yong, and the emperor and empress are also at ease.

Whether it is private or public, it is impossible for the emperor and empress to abolish the eldest son and establish the second son Li Xian. Li Xian himself has never thought of such absurd things.

Then the person in front of him really has ulterior motives.

The inner guard of plum blossoms is really a well-deserved reputation. People hate ghosts.

Of course, the identity must be confirmed first, so as not to wrong others.

Zhang Da'an said: "You said you are a plum blossom inner guard, do you have proof?"

Zhuo Wei had been prepared for a long time, and skillfully rolled up his sleeves, revealing the plum blossom mark on his arm: "Here is the proof."

Li Xian's mouth moved, but he couldn't hold back: "You plum blossom internal guards rely on this to identify their own people?"

Zhuo Wei said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, no one dares to pretend to be the internal guard of Plum Blossom!"

Li Xian thought that he would find an orchid from Beishi tonight and get a tattoo on his arm, and tomorrow he would be the internal guard of the plum blossom.

Of course, I can only think about it, his identity does not allow him to really do this.

Zhang Daan was also silent for a while, but stopped asking, and gave Li Xian a look.

Li Xian understood, and waved his hand: "This king... I want to discuss matters with Wang Fu alone, you step back! Someone, take this Plum Blossom inner guard to dinner."

Zhuo Wei was also so nervous that his back was covered in cold sweat just now, and finally heaved a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Seeing Zhuo Wei being taken out, Li Xian also breathed a sigh of relief: "Wang Fu, what do you think is going on?"

Zhang Da'an said with an extremely solemn expression: "Your Majesty, please don't call me lonely, the inner guard of Plum Blossom is going to kill you!"

Li Xian said with a smile: "Since you are His Highness, you can naturally call yourself 'Gu'. Wang Fu understands Gu's concerns. Don't worry, Gu will not compete with the prince's brother."

Zhang Da'an sighed: "I'm afraid the king will be unable to help himself..."

Now that the Luoyang government has just stabilized, Chang'an came out like this, and the meaning of brothers fighting is too obvious.

Of course, in the face of the temptation of power, no matter how clearly you see it, you can't help but burrow into it, but the anxious posture of the plum blossom inner guard is like pouring cold water on your head. The so-called His Royal Highness King Yong, It's just a pawn!
Zhang Da'an could see it clearly, but he couldn't explain it directly, so he said in a deep thought, "Do you still remember Wang Caizi?"

Li Xian's smile restrained, and he said sadly: "Of course I remember!"

He was thirteen years old that year, and Wang Bo and Wang Bo were not only classmates studying together in the Hongwen Museum, but also good friends who talked about everything. in an instant.

As a result, the good times didn’t last long, because a joking cockfighting essay angered his father, and Wang Bo’s bright future was cut off. On the day he left Chang’an, Li Xian was punished and confinement in the mansion, but he couldn’t see him off...

If the two grow up together, maybe they will no longer be close because of conflicts, but this regret makes Li Xian talk about Wang Bo's goodness from time to time.

As a teacher, Zhang Daan also saw it in his eyes, so he took it out at this time to dissuade him, and by the way, he blatantly vindicated Li Zhi: "Your Majesty doesn't want people around you to repeat the mistakes of Wang Caizi. He wants brothers to be harmonious and family members to be friendly." , and the consistent teaching of the sage is exactly the opposite of what the plum blossom inner guard said!"

Li Xian's complexion changed slightly: "This Plum Blossom inner guard is really daring, dare to falsely preach the imperial decree?"

Zhang Da'an is very clear that it is not a false imperial decree, so he can only make excuses: "I am afraid it is not only because of his audacity, but because His Royal Highness is benevolent, he does not like this kind of place where he is secretly monitoring all officials, and he is not restrained. It is only because of our own survival that we will make such a bad plan to provoke the brotherhood between the King and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Li Xian reacted very quickly, and immediately felt strange when he heard this. His brother didn't like plum blossom inner guards, but his father vigorously cultivated plum blossom inner guards. Didn't he mean...

He shook his head slightly, put aside the thoughts that he should not have as a son of man, and echoed: "What Wang Fu said is true, but the edict has been issued, this king can't resist the edict, right?"

Zhang Da'an said: "That's not necessary, as long as your majesty puts his foot down and puts His Highness the most important thing in everything, then you won't be taken advantage of by traitors and wait for the future."

This "wait for the future" is very particular.

In the future, if Li Hongzhen had an emergency, it would be logical for Li Xian to become the prince, impeccable.

In the future, if Li Hong ascends the throne smoothly, he will not treat his younger brother badly. This is the best of both worlds.

Li Xian didn't think about it so deeply. He didn't have the idea of ​​competing for the crown prince. The so-called "no desires can lead to strength", and the momentary joy passed, so it didn't matter: "Okay! This king will show his attitude! How about we go to dinner first?"

But Zhang Daan didn't care about eating, and showed a stern expression: "This plum blossom inner guard, we must deal with it quickly!"

Li Xian's eyes moved, and he became excited again: "Wang Fu means...kill him?"

Zhang Da'an is mature and prudent, unwilling to do such a drastic thing, he shook his head and said: "He is the inner guard of plum blossoms set up by the sage himself, how can he act rashly as an assassin? The old man's intention is to severely punish him!"

Li Xian waved his hand: "Wang Fu's move is too cautious. According to my opinion, this thief is arrogant. He doesn't kill chickens to make an example of monkeys. There are still troubles behind..."

He paused, showing a strange smile: "What's more, this person said that he is a plum blossom inner guard, who knows?"

Zhang Daan frowned: "The plum blossom mark on the arm..."

Li Xiandao: "Those orchids in the West City of Chang'an have a way to get rid of these tattoo marks. Presumably there are also in the North City of Luoyang. My king immediately sent someone to call for the best craftsman. After getting this person drunk, remove the tattoo on his arm. If the mark is removed, then he will no longer be the internal guard of the plum blossom, he is neither an official nor an official, and he dares to come to the mansion to speak nonsense, he should be executed!"

Zhang Daan: "..."

Plum Blossom Inner Guard met you, it's really a ghost.

Although Li Xian is full of talent, he has been fond of cockfighting and running dogs since he was a child. Call the West Pavilion to offer wine.

There is one person in the east pavilion and one in the west pavilion in the palace. From the seventh grade, they are specially used to meet the guests. They are all exquisite people. At this time, they were ordered to do business, and soon brought back the suitable Orchid.

On the other side, Zhuo Wei drank happily and drank a few more glasses. In a daze, he felt that there were several people around him, and then he vaguely heard His Royal Highness Yong Wang who was in his picture snickered and said: "It's this mark that can get rid of it." Is it? Ha, it’s really removed!”

"It doesn't matter if you have scars, as long as you don't see them..."

"Shameless traitor, dare to alienate the harmony between the king and brother, drag it down, and kill him with a stick!!"
