Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 729 Influence
The news swept across the entire Chang'an City in a very short period of time.

Those who don't understand at all envy and envy Su Dingfang, a former general from Hebei, who is so trusted by His Majesty, and he is in charge of the palace... You can't do it unless you are a confidant. There is no such thing as a beloved child.

People with little knowledge began to prepare to cling to the East Palace... After all, Li Shan's political stance has always been on the side of Li Yuan and Princess Pingyang, and he has many disagreements with Qin Wangfu. Feng Lun had a quarrel, and there was still a break.

Those who knew the inside story lowered their heads, so as not to see the joy in their eyes... For example, Changsun Wuji, the brother-in-law of the King of Qin has always had a lot of objections to Li Shan for not taking a clear stand. Waiting for such a result.

But in any case, one thing is for sure, Su Dingfang, who was ordered to restrain the Beiya imperial army, became one of the few powerful figures in Chang'an City.

Sun Moon Lake, in Li's study.

Ling Jing looked at the frowning Li Shan with strange eyes, and the latter was still in a daze... for a while, he wondered whether Li Shimin would let Su Dingfang open the Xuanwu Gate instead of Chang He, and for a while, he wondered whether this appointment was hand-picked by Li Yuan Yes, or who recommended it?
"It should be recommended by Princess Pingyang, right?" Su Dingfang didn't think too much about it. For him, it is not difficult to restrain the Beiya Imperial Army.

Ling Jing glanced at Li Shan, "Princess Pingyang is the best."

Su Dingfang's eyes were confused, and Li Shan nodded slightly, "Tomorrow I should visit...Princess Pingyang is the best."

Both Li Shan and Ling Jing are the kind of people who think more... To put it another way, people with dirty hearts have thought of a possibility. Could there be Pei Shiju's handwriting in it?
Logically speaking, it is impossible, hand-picked to be in charge of the palace ban, and to control the Beiya imperial army... Li Yuan almost entrusted his wealth and life to Su Dingfang, or to Li Shan.

Li Yuan will definitely think about it thoroughly, it is unlikely to ask Zaifu, and it is unlikely to accept Zaifu's advice... After all, several of Zaifu have made their own choices.

Moreover, Princess Pingyang is pregnant, so it doesn't make sense that Pei Shiju knew about it, but Li Shan, who has been in close contact with Princess Pingyang, didn't know about it.

But in the eyes of Ling Jing and Li Shan, Pei Shiju is also a beneficiary.

There is no essential difference between Su Dingfang's restraint of the Beiya Imperial Army and Li Shan's restraint of the Beiya Imperial Army. If it weren't for Li Shan, how could Li Yuan choose Zhongsu Dingfang?
Pei Shiju is likely to use some means to prove one thing to Donggong, or to prove Li Shan's political stance.

Both Li Shan and Ling Jing believed that Pei Shiju, who had been in a career of ups and downs for decades, could do it. He just needed to create an opportunity for Li Shimin to let Li Shan come forward.

Su Dingfang's control of the Beiya Forbidden Army means that Li Shanhui is one of Li Yuan's closest courtiers... From another perspective, Li Shan has a lot of influence on Li Yuan. Will Li Shimin hold back when he is in distress? ?

Maybe Li Shan can use tactful means to solve certain problems and rescue Li Shimin... Others may not pay attention, but Pei Shiju will definitely keep watching.

Pei Shiju wanted to completely eliminate Li Shan, and he needed two conditions. One was that Prince Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, and the other was that Li Jiancheng had to judge that Li Shan had already secretly joined the King of Qin.

After a long silence, Ling Jing looked at Li Shan who looked indifferent, and said softly: "It may not be so..."

"Go and ask tomorrow." Li Shan refrained from going to Princess Pingyang's mansion today, but he has enough reasons to visit tomorrow.

"From His Majesty's point of view, Huairen is almost one body with Princess Pingyang." Ling Jing reminded in a low voice, "Princess Pingyang is dismissed for self-cultivation, and her successor... His Majesty will inquire about it."

Li Shan nodded. He also considered this point. Logically speaking, Li Yuan would ask Princess Pingyang to recommend a successor. From Li Yuan's point of view, the political positions of himself, Su Dingfang and Princess Pingyang were the same.

Su Dingfang heard something at this time, and suddenly interrupted: "I was promoted that day, and Princess Pingyang and his wife were present."

"Isn't it really Pei Shiju?" Li Shan murmured, the trajectory of history has been completely different, there is no Princess Pingyang who died young in this life, which has brought countless variables to the succession.

"Whether it's Pei Shiju or not, he has a good opportunity to play tricks." Ling Jing reminded: "Be careful."

Li Shan scratched his itchy scalp. If Pei Shiju really didn't do it, then he could only say that he did it on his own!
Pretending to be a pure minister is too much!

The impartial stance is too upright!
In the fourth year of Wude in the Luoyang Hulao War, it was a foregone conclusion for Li and Tang to rule the world. It was also at that time that the seizure of the heirloom officially kicked off... All the ministers have their own biases and origins, but only from the fifth year of Wude Li Shan, who came out, had absolutely no background in the East Palace or Prince Qin's Mansion.

Ordinary people are fine, but Li Shan's posture is too upright and his military exploits are outstanding, which led Li Yuan to choose Li Shan and Su Dingfang.

Li Shan thought to himself, it should be like this... I have done it myself!

No need to think about it, Li Yuan's decision will definitely increase Li Shan's importance in the battle for the heir apparent... This also means countless troubles.

What to do next... Li Shan found out that he did not have the right to dominate, it all depends on what Li Shimin thinks, if he still can't enter the East Palace, I'm afraid there will be a change of Xuanwumen in this life, Su Dingfang can come in handy of.

But in the previous life, Li Shimin was forced to a dead end, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were all driven out of Chang'an, and the generals under his command were transferred away one by one, and finally made up his mind... Before that, the prince and King Qi had a lot of tricks, and I could guarantee that I would not be able to do anything. Was Chazi caught by the tail by Pei Shiju?

I have to find an opportunity to ask Li Shimin... Li Shan glanced at Ling Jing, this kind of thing needs to be asked in person, not through Ling Jing.

"Restraining the Beiya imperial army, controlling the palace ban, no matter the East Palace or the Tiance Mansion..." Li Shan looked at Su Dingfang, "It's just doing my duty."

Su Dingfang nodded, "Follow the rules."

"That's right." Li Shan hesitated, and said in a low voice, "Beware of King Qi."

Su Dingfang was a little surprised, but he didn't ask any further questions, and only responded. Ling Jing took a deep look at Li Shan. Although he didn't know the inside story, he had noticed it since the beginning of the year. It seemed that Li Shan had extraordinary attention to Qi Wang.
