Man Tanghong

Chapter 234 The News From Yin Ashu
Li Yuanji rode the tall horse chosen by Luo Shixin, surrounded by a large crowd, and wandered into Chang'an City.

In the workshops and streets of Chang'an City, I saw many doctors carrying medicine boxes and medicine boys, imitating Sun Simiao, holding free clinics.

On weekdays, the Xinglin sages, who were not seen by the common people, are now like fortune-tellers, setting up a stall on the street to diagnose diseases for the common people.

The common people lined up to ask the doctors to diagnose their pulse.

Those who are sick or not are all moving up.

The reason for this is that all the expenses during the free clinic were borne by the internal treasury in the palace.

The common people may think that this is a rare opportunity to take advantage of the royal family, so they have to get a little oil from the royal family no matter what.

Before the diagnosis, the common people would bow their hands at the palace, shout "His Royal Highness Qi Longevity", and thank the doctor before starting the diagnosis.

On the road, if you meet the carriage frame of King Qi's Mansion, you will give a respectful salute.

In this large-scale free clinic, there are many people who are not sick but want to take advantage of it, and even more people who are sick have received favors.

But anyone who is sick and has received favors is equivalent to receiving great favors from Li Yuanji.

Seeing the frame of Prince Qi's mansion, he was naturally treated with courtesy.

Some people who indirectly received Li Yuanji's life-saving grace would even kneel down and kowtow twice.

In the eyes of dignitaries and dignitaries, they may be nothing.

In their own eyes, the two kowtows are the greatest respect to Li Yuanji.

They were so poor that they couldn't offer anything to repay Li Yuanji's great kindness, so they could only kowtow to Li Yuanji twice as a token of respect.

Sitting on horseback, Li Yuanji looked at both sides of the avenue. From time to time, someone bowed to him, and from time to time someone knelt down and kowtowed to him, which was indescribably weird.

Those who salute and kowtow do not say a word.

Li Yuanji always felt that they were not rewarding his kindness, but sending him to the funeral.

If it is matched with a loess pad and a piece of plain onyx, it is almost the same as the funeral of the emperor and empress.

Speaking of it, since Li Tang established the country, it has been passed down for three or four generations, and it seems that there has never been a queen mother.

So what the Empress Dowager's funeral looked like, the people in the early Li and Tang Dynasties seemed to be unable to see it.

Li Yuanji enjoyed the funeral-like rewards from the common people, and entered the Taiji Palace without any haste.

After passing through several palace gates, he arrived at his Wude Hall.

The eunuchs, female officials, servants and servants staying in the Wude Hall have cleaned up the Wude Hall long ago, and greeted them at the gate of the Wude Hall.

Li Yuanji saw an unexpected person in the welcoming team.

After accepting everyone's welcome, Li Yuanji asked Yang Miaoyan and others to go back to the dormitory to rest first, and then called this unexpected person to his side.

"Yin Ashu, why did you appear in my palace? Aren't you the prison gate of the Second Gate of the Imperial City?"

Sitting on the couch in the main hall of Wude Hall, Li Yuanji stared at Yin Ashu with a flattering expression, full of doubts.

Yin Ashu hurriedly said: "The minister has been transferred to the Daji Gate now, as the guard of the Daji Gate, he can be regarded as a person in His Highness's palace, so he will naturally be in His Highness's palace."

Yin Ashu shamelessly described himself as a member of Wudedian.

Li Yuanji opened his mouth, but was a little speechless.

Dajimen is the north gate of Wude Hall, and when you go out, you will find the back garden of the palace.

Like the Daqing gate in Li Shimin's palace and the Yiqiu gate in Li Jiancheng's palace, they are all guarded by Li Yuan.

In this matter, Li Yuan was not dazzled by family affection, and he did not allow his sons to send someone to be on duty, otherwise, it would be more convenient for the sons to use their swords.

"Why did you transfer to Dajimen and also act as the guard of Dajimen?"

Li Yuanji stared at Yin Ashu, not quite understanding.

There are no rigid standards for the prison gates of the various gates in the palace.

However, the guards of each gate in the palace must be served by military officials who are skilled in bow and horse.

No matter how you look at it, Yin Ashu is not a military official who is skilled in bowing horses.

Li Yuanji didn't understand why Li Yuan handed over the duty of Dajimen to him.

Yin Ashu smiled flatteringly and said: "The minister also begged the imperial concubine for a long time before he got this good job."

Li Yuanji rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Li Yuan was indeed an irrational emperor, he was blown away by someone's pillow, and he handed over such an important position to a worthless person.

If Li Yuanji wanted to take advantage of the convenience of passing through the back garden, take soldiers and horses to Chengqing Hall or the East Palace to have a look.

Not only will Yin Ashu not be his resistance, but he will also be his help.

Li Yuanji glanced at Yin Ashu and said: "Although the Daji Gate is at the gate of my palace, it is not under the control of my palace, and you are not considered a member of my palace.

When you are free in the future, don't hang around in front of me, just keep your Daji gate obediently. "

Yin Ashu became anxious immediately.

He suppressed his fear of Li Yuanji, and took a job as a guard at Daji Gate, just to get close to Li Yuanji, so that Li Yuanji would be gentler to him in the future because he was somewhat obedient.

Now that Li Yuanji doesn't wait to see him, how can he not be in a hurry.

"Your Highness, I am loyal to you. I am willing to do anything for you."

Yin Ashu shouted anxiously.

Li Yuanji rolled his eyes.

Will Yin Ashu be loyal?
Would Yin Ashu believe it herself?

Seeing that Li Yuanji was unmoved, Yin Ashu hurriedly said again: "Your Highness, I have important news to tell Your Highness."

Li Yuanji was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yin Ashu.

Yin Ashu hurriedly said: "King Qin is going to be in trouble soon."

Li Yuanji looked suspicious.

Is Li Shimin going to be unlucky?

Why didn't he hear any news, and didn't notice any signs.

Yin Ashu sneakily said: "There is a nobleman in the palace who asked the sage for a piece of fertile land to reward his father, the sage has already written an edict and sent someone to send it out.

But the king of Qin had already been one step ahead of the sage, and allocated those fertile fields to the king of Huai'an.

The King of Huai'an might not hand over those fertile fields.

In a few days, the news will be sent back to the palace.

The nobleman in the palace will definitely go to the saint to make trouble.

At that time, King Qin will have to walk around if he can't eat. "

Li Yuanji was slightly taken aback.

He was somewhat impressed by this matter.

The nobleman Yin Ashu was talking about should be Zhang Jieyu.

According to historical records, Zhang Jieyu sought land for her father, but was cut off by Li Shimin and rewarded with Li Shentong.

After Li Yuan's edict arrived, Li Shentong refused to return the fertile land no matter what.

Zhang Jieyu went to make trouble with Li Yuan.

And they turned black and white, saying that Li Shimin gave the fertile land to Li Shentong first, saying that Li Shimin didn't respect Li Yuan's will, forcibly took away the fertile land that had been allocated to her father, and rewarded Li Shentong.

Because of this, Li Yuan was really afraid of Li Shimin.

Because his edict is not as effective as Li Shimin's Wangjiao.

"Your Highness, do you think King Qin is going to be unlucky?"

Seeing Li Yuanji standing there silently, Yin Ashu asked obsequiously.

Li Yuanji came back to his senses, frowned slightly, glanced at Yin Ashu, and said nothing.

Li Shimin is indeed going to be unlucky.

Because he did so, it was tantamount to eliminating the possibility of Li Yuan passing on the crown prince to him.

He is still a prince, so he can do things against Li Yuan's will.

If he becomes the crown prince, why shouldn't Li Yuan be ostracized?
Whether Li Yuan wanted to maintain the orderly rules of the elders or the young, or his own rule, it was impossible for Li Yuan to pass on the crown prince to Li Shimin.

Li Yuan loves his son, but it doesn't mean he is willing to let go of the imperial power.

Li Shimin should already know that Li Jiancheng sent someone to Gyeongju to meet Yang Wenqian.

The Yang Wenqian rebellion incident that caused a sensation in the Wu De Dynasty probably already took shape in his mind.

But he was doomed to waste his time.

Because under Zhang Jieyu's false accusation, he passively challenged Li Yuan's authority.

No matter what Li Yuan said, he would not abolish Li Jiancheng and make him the prince.

"My second brother is going to be unlucky, but what does it have to do with me? If you want to ask for a reward, you should also go to my elder brother. Why do you want me?"

Li Yuanji glanced at Yin Ashu, and said indifferently.

Yin Ashu asked anxiously: "Didn't your Highness always dislike King Qin?"

Li Yuanji gave Yin Ashu a look like a fool.

When is this old calendar, do you still remember?
"Who told you that I can't see my second brother anymore, did I tell you?"

Li Yuanji stared at Yin Ashu and asked.

Yin Ashu was speechless.

Because Li Yuanji really didn't say publicly that he couldn't see Li Shimin.

"Go to my elder brother to receive the reward."

Li Yuanji waved his hand at Yin Ashu, seeing that Yin Ashu was still talking, his eyes became sharper.

Startled, Yin Ashu saluted Li Yuanji politely, and left the main hall of Wude Hall.

He did not go to the East Palace to find Li Jiancheng to receive the reward.

Therefore, this matter was originally a plan made by Li Jiancheng, Zhang Jieyu, and his daughter.

Zhang Jieyu didn't want that fertile land earlier, she didn't want that fertile land later, but she wanted it after Li Shimin rewarded Li Shentong, for that?

Obviously looking for faults.

After Yin Ashu left, Li Yuanji frowned.

Li Shimin is not unlucky, it really has nothing to do with him.

But Li Shimin rewarded Li Shentong with fertile land without any warning, so it has something to do with him.

Li Shimin was obviously benefiting Li Shentong, and wanted to win over Li Shentong.

Li Shentong is now his ally.

If he was lured over by Li Shimin, wouldn't Li Shimin know everything he said and did?

And Li Shentong is an important member of the clan.

If Li Shentong turned to Li Shimin, a large number of clan members would turn to Li Shimin.

Members of his 'Neutral Alliance' will drop sharply.

The influence of his "Neutral Alliance" will also be greatly reduced.

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, I hope you don't do stupid things."

Li Yuanji sighed faintly, picked up the pen and began to write the letter.

Li Shimin is using land and money to buy Li Shentong, and it is impossible for him to use the same means as Li Shimin.

Because Li Shimin has more resources than him, if he also uses land and money to buy Li Shentong, he will not be able to compete with Li Shimin.

He also didn't want to fight a war of attrition with Li Shimin.

So he could only write to Li Xiuning.
