People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 1060 If the crown prince fails, he will be deposed.

Bright eyes, white teeth, plump muscles and beautiful bones, all covered with rubble and broken jade.

Xianyun is clever, Feixing spreads hatred, and Yinhan looms dark.

As soon as Jinfeng Yulu met, they won but countless on earth.

……

The bright moon slid over the eaves and shone through the open windows.

On the bed, Liu Jinyu leaned bonelessly in Li Xuan's arms and exhaled: "How long can Mr. Lang stay at home this time?"

"It should take half a year." Li Xuan's eyes were faint, and he gently hugged his wife's smooth shoulders, thinking to himself that half a year would be enough for everything to settle.

"Then Changzhou doesn't need to worry?" Liu Jinyu looked up in surprise.

Li Xuan shook his head and said: "Qinling does not have the strength to counterattack in winter. As for the state, my husband has talked with Zhang Gong and he will take control of everything."

"Mr. Zhang...does he not care about the prince?" Liu Jinyu understood the subtext of Li Xuan's words.

"Mr. Zhang has helped the prince too much, but even he has not been able to make the prince truly change his mind. He has tried his best, and the rest is the family." Li Xuan sighed calmly.

Although Zhang Daan was the prince's concubine and had assisted the prince for several years, it was only a few years.

Compared with Huangfu Zhengyi, the relationship between Zhang Daan and Li Xian is lighter after all.

And he was more loyal to the Tang Dynasty and the emperor.

When there is a problem between the emperor and the prince, there is no need to think too much about how to choose.

Especially after the prince made people more and more disappointed.

"Prince, is he really hopeless?" Liu Jinyu climbed up slightly and leaned into Li Xuan's ear to whisper.

Once word like this spreads, I don't know how many people will be killed, so Liu Jinyu will only ask it when the husband and wife get along privately.

"It's hopeless." Li Xuan looked at the darkness on the roof beyond the moonlight above his head and said softly: "The first half of this year was his last chance, and he didn't seize it."

"Opportunity?" Liu Jinyu looked surprised and asked puzzledly: "Did it be Lang Jun who proposed to the prince to investigate the hidden fields in various places? I think the prince has done a good job!"

"He did something wrong and went in the wrong direction." Li Xuan said softly with a hint of helplessness on her face: "Our prince does not dare to do anything, and he never grasps the key points."

"With twenty thousand hectares of land, His Majesty is so satisfied. Isn't it enough?" Liu Jinyu did not expect that Li Xuan would say this for a moment.

After all, the prince found 20,000 hectares of land in Yongzhou and presented it to the emperor as a birthday gift. The emperor's satisfaction was almost beyond words.

Now, Li Xian has begun to implement this strategy again in Henan Province, which will bring endless benefits to His Majesty and the court in the future.

"So he went in the wrong direction." Li Xuan smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand to grab his wife's delicate jade fingers, and whispered: "Searching for Hidden Fields to satisfy His Majesty is just a process, a means, not the ultimate goal. , My husband asked the prince to do this, actually I want him to use this to win more people's hearts and recruit more talents, instead of just letting him offend people."

"Gather people's hearts and talents." Liu Jinyu finally understood what Li Xuan was thinking: "Lang Jun wants to help the prince increase his background."

"That's right." Li Xuan nodded slightly and said: "There are too many children from the Donggong family. Even if Duke Zhang and Huangfu have any good suggestions, once they are implemented, Gao Qi, Xue Yao, and other children from the family will They will all pop up.

Either admonish or use various means to prevent it.

The East Palace has always had more people, and it is strange that they can do well... Therefore, it is necessary to introduce many disciples from poor families around the prince, so that the prince can hear more opinions from different directions. "

After a slight pause, Li Xuan shook his head and said: "But our prince only saw the plundered acres and the harvested money, but he forgot that in this process, there are countless people who can be deployed and countless talents who can be borrowed. I have the opportunity to win over you, you know, this is Yongzhou!"

Yongzhou, the land of Gyeonggi Province.

As long as Li Xian works hard, he can have countless manpower available outside Chang'an City.

As long as there is a chance, he can transfer these people to Yongzhou Mansion, which is equivalent to transferring them to Chang'an City.

After that, they dispersed from Yongzhou Prefecture to Chang'an Wannian County, Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, Jinwu Guard, Qianniu Guard, and Prison Guards...

Li Xuan took the matter apart, crushed it into pieces, and explained it to Liu Jinyu in detail, and then sighed: "As long as you work hard, you can't do anything. But, our prince, he can only do what others can do." The layer that you don’t care about the least.”

"This kind of thing, let alone the prince, even I can't think of it." Liu Jinyu couldn't help but shake her head.

She has been helping Liu Rengui handle political affairs for many years, but she can't see through Li Xuan's deeper methods.

"The wife has a husband, and the prince also has countless staff around him." Li Xuan took a deep breath and said deeply: "There is no shortage of smart people around the prince. They may not be unable to see the opportunities here, just because of their position. They are not willing to let the prince come to this point."

"So, they would rather help the prince clean up the hidden fields at home than let the prince infiltrate more power." Liu Jinyu finally saw through what she had always felt was awkward.

There are many children from aristocratic families around the prince, but not many people oppose the prince when it comes to searching for land.

"The prince's situation is dangerous. If they don't want their investment in the prince to be completely lost, they will naturally start to fish it out. The fields in Yongzhou Mansion were indeed returned to the court through the hands of the prince, but the court soon allocated them again. Once they get there...it's just a matter of spending a little more time and effort, and their losses won't be that big."

Li Xuan sneered softly: "But through this move, the prince's impression in His Majesty's mind was stabilized. The method was indeed good, but how could they know how His Majesty could be easily deceived? In the current situation, they have complete control over when to kill someone. In His Majesty’s hands.”

Killing people, only killing people, can truly control all those lands into the hands of the imperial court, but Li Xian never seemed to want to kill people ruthlessly.

"The people around the prince have no talent for governing the country." Liu Jinyu now finally understood the real problem with Li Xian.

"Yes, even though the prince has been sitting in this position for several years, it is always difficult for him to go deeper in handling government affairs. This is the reason." Li Xuan took a deep breath. Dealing with government affairs is never as simple as it seems.

Many people look at problems one by one, but truly experienced officials are able to look at the overall situation and integrate all matters.

Each link, each position, and each character must be fully understood, instead of just understanding a superficial level and then leaving after finishing it.

The four words "deep cultivation" are never what they seem on the surface, they require thorough in-depth study.

"No wonder Lang Jun always said that the prince is indecisive and has no opinions of his own. It turns out that's the case." Liu Jinyu now fully understood Li Xuan's true views.

To be honest, this kind of problem is not only faced by Li Xian, but also by Liu Jinyu.

Over the years, she has indeed helped Liu Rengui handle a lot of political affairs, but in fact, on a truly in-depth level, she has participated very little.

She finally understood now why Empress Wu didn't care much about it even though she knew that she was helping her grandfather handle political affairs behind his back.

Li Xuan hugged Liu Jinyu in her arms and said softly: "No one knows these things from birth. Even if she is a queen, she has figured it out bit by bit during more than ten years of handling government affairs. And even she only really controls the household department."

This is also the reason why the Ministry of Revenue has changed so many ministers over the years, but it is still in the hands of Empress Wu.

As for the Ministry of Punishment, although Pei Yan is the Minister of Punishment and is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, in fact, due to the complexity of the Ministry of Punishment's affairs, his in-depth understanding of the Ministry of Punishment is still insufficient.

The people in Dali Temple have been able to collide with Pei Yan many times because the affairs of Dali Temple are not so complicated, so the relevant people can be more focused.

Li Xuan came close to Liu Jinyu's ear and lowered her voice and said: "If the prince does not do this, your majesty will be relieved. But if the prince does not do this, it will be difficult for him to stand on his own. In the end, your majesty will feel that the prince has not taken responsibility." The capabilities of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Once something happens, he will be destroyed immediately. "

Liu Jinyu shuddered violently, and finally said these words.

The prince was deposed.

The throne has always been the most sensitive thing.

This is true for the prince, and it is also true for the emperor.

When it comes to this, the emperor will always be suspicious.

If the prince is too strong, he will feel that the prince is in danger and may seek to usurp the throne at any time.

The prince was too weak, and he felt that the prince could not inherit the throne and would destroy him.

Especially Li Zhi, himself, his own father Li Shimin, and grandfather Li Yuan are all outstanding figures in the world.

Only Li Xian couldn't even break through the barrier of the Aristocratic Family.

"Then Mr. Lang thinks the prince..." Liu Jinyu looked at Li Xuan worriedly.

"In the past half year, let alone the current situation, he may not have had an easy time." Li Xuan sighed lightly, Li Xian's life was now in Li Xuan's hands.

"Mr. Lang is talking about Master Shi Yin." Liu Jinyu understood something and whispered: "Nowadays, there are rumors in Chang'an and Luoyang that Master Shi Yin died because he offended the ghosts and gods, but in fact he was the prince... …”

"There is no evidence." Li Xuan shook his head calmly. It was Li Jingye's method to offend the ghosts and gods and die, and all parties had a tacit understanding to hide the affairs of those children.

Shaking her head, Li Xuan said softly: "The rain is coming and the wind is filling the building!"

"That's why Lang Jun didn't let Sister Dou'er get pregnant this time in Changzhou." Liu Jinyu completely changed the subject to a million miles away.

Li Xuan was unable to react for a while. He smiled bitterly and said: "Madam, what are you talking about? The matter of the heir is determined by God. There is no way for anyone to do it artificially. Besides, my husband has been in Maduo for most of the year." , Dou'er is in Xinghai, there are not many opportunities left."

"Haha!" Liu Jinyu laughed coldly.

"Okay." Li Xuan suddenly turned over, pressed Liu Jinyu under him, and then said viciously: "Then I will make you and the damselfly pregnant in the past six months..."

"No~" In the coquettish voice, a pair of jade arms stretched out.

……

At the end of autumn in September, the breeze is refreshing.

Pingkangfang, northwest, is a place of food and residence.

In the private room on the third floor, Li Xuan raised his glass, looked at the people in front of him and said, "Xuan has been away from Chang'an for a long time. I have to ask all my brothers to help me with the family matters."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome." Di Renjie, Qin Ming, and others came to Sui. Why do they ask? Yao Chong, Song Jing and others drank at the same time, and then drank it all.

Everyone sat down, and Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Yao Chong and said, "I feel sorry for Yuan Zhi this time. I originally planned to let Chang Shi return to the capital at the end of the year, but His Majesty suddenly recalled Xuan. What happened next?" It’s a bit difficult to control, and now I have to trouble Yuan Zhi and me to go to Luoyang to investigate the case.”

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. Everything is for political reasons. Besides, at worst, at the end of the year, Yao Chong will take a few days off and take his mother to Xinghai." Yao Chong bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty governs Changzhou, these days It will be much more convenient for Changan to travel to Qinghai-Tibet."

"Everything is the result of Chang Shi." Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "I have always been just a hands-off shopkeeper."

"Without the prince's painstaking planning, Changzhou would not have developed so fast." Yao Chong complimented a little, and then asked: "I don't know what happened in Luoyang, what does the prince plan?"

"I would like to ask you all, are you sure that the corpse in the secret room is that of Master Shiyin?"
