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

Chapter 1101 The Crown Prince, the King of England, and the King of Nanchang are clearly distinguished

In the darkness, Liu Jinyu lay in Li Xuan's arms, gently drawing circles on his chest with her fingers.

After a long time, Liu Jinyu asked softly: "Husband, if the prince really rebels, when do you think it will happen?"

Li Xuan was silent for a while, and then he asked softly: "Sanniang, do you want my husband to tell me when is the best time to rebel?"

Liu Jinyu was stunned for a moment, then whispered: "Sanniang is wrong."

Li Xuan patted her smooth jade back and said softly: "It's best not to even think about this kind of thing. It's a trivial matter to violate taboos. What I'm most afraid of is that you say this inadvertently.

In an instant, the label of rebellion has been placed on your head, and even the emperor wants to kill you, just because you thought about it. "

Liu Jinyu nodded lightly, and Li Xuan continued: "But there are only you and me. Tonight, my husband's words will only enter your ears. After I finish speaking, you will forget them."

"Okay." Liu Jinyu agreed, but she knew how it was possible to forget such a thing. It was just a matter of preparing it many times in advance, and it would not be easy to check later.

"If the prince wants to rebel, the best time is when something is happening both internally and externally. For example, someone in the south of the Yangtze River rebels and occupies Yangzhou; for example, the Turks in northern Xinjiang raise an army and threaten Chang'an. Once the army is mobilized and the defenses in the army are weak, the prince will have an opportunity. ." Li Xuan sighed softly and said: "After all, the prince cannot have many people, at most three to five hundred people."

Although the East Palace has Prince Liu Lie, most of the people responsible for commanding Prince Liu Lie are close ministers of the East Palace. However, Prince Liu Lie is surrounded by the army of the Sixteenth Guards, and it is difficult for them to move at all.

They can only enter the palace when they are on duty to guard the East Palace.

It was too difficult for Li Xian to cultivate personal personnel under the emperor's eyes.

As for mobilizing the power on the surface, cleverly calculating the military strength in the palace, and finding the weaknesses, Li Xian is afraid that he does not have this ability.

Others in the East Palace may have this ability, but they may not dare to tell Li Xian, and they may not be willing to rebel with Li Xian.

Anyone who can truly see the layout of the palace can see through the danger of the situation.

If you really act rashly, not only yourself, but also the entire family will be implicated and destroyed.

I'm afraid that Li Xian will think he has seen through some weakness, and then rush out, and finally be destroyed in one fell swoop.

……

"Yangzhou has rebelled, the Tianyin Sect has been destroyed, and Li Jingye is dead. Even if he has some tricks, he can't be so sinister. As for the Turks in northern Xinjiang, they may still be waiting for the Tang Dynasty to depose the prince first."

Liu Jinyu looked up at Li Xuan and asked, "Husband, under such circumstances, does the prince still dare to act rashly?"

"First, the Tianyin Sect has been destroyed and Li Jingye is dead. His Majesty has sent people to clean up the mess. It is true that there is not much danger, but if it is just a bluff, it does not require much manpower..." Li Before Xuan finished speaking, Liu Jinyu couldn't help but raise her head: "Who?"

"Who else could it be? Those two ambitious but incompetent bastards, King Cao and King Yue, have no idea that the Queen of Heaven has been watching them." Li Xuan sighed softly and said, "Once these two people create something in Jiangnan, With the momentum and the court deploying troops, the prince's chances will be greater."

"His Majesty……"

"They don't have any chance." Li Xuan shook his head and said: "Yuan Jiazuo, the governor of Yuezhou, always treats the people very well and is a bit harsh on officials. However, his prestige in Yuezhou is very important. The King of Yue has no chance to incite the people; Hangzhou The governor came to work hard, and the military policy was passed down from his family. There is a distance between Yuezhou and Suzhou in Hangzhou, so the two places cannot be connected."

"So the Prince of Jiangnan still has no chance." Liu Jinyu continued to ask: "What about the Turks?"

"Of course the Turks want to wait for the Tang Dynasty to dethrone the crown prince, and then invade the Tang Dynasty in the name of the Qing emperor. It is a good idea, but it is greatly restricted by the outside world." Li Xuan took a breath, and then said: "But if it is next year, the court will wait for The Turkic national policy is harsh, and if the weather is bad and there is a disaster in the grassland, then the Turkic people may not be able to wait until autumn."

"Then they must take action." Liu Jinyu nodded suddenly, and then she immediately understood, looked at Li Xuan and said: "Husband, you mentioned that these kings of Cao and Yue rebelled, and there were also Turks on the side of Qingjun. Isn't it the game between His Majesty and the Crown Prince?"

Li Xuan fell silent, and after a moment, he said quietly: "I don't know how the prince behaves as a husband, but everything must be in the hands of your majesty, and it is difficult to have an accident.

Especially in Chang'an and Luoyang, the prince had no chance. "

"Then if the prince didn't know that he was so concerned about being seen by His Majesty, would he choose to take action?" Liu Jinyu looked at Li Xuan seriously.

Li Xuan sighed softly and said: "Between the government and the public, during the first dynasty, the imperial examination in February, the results released in March, the Tibetan war in April, the summer harvest in the south of the Yangtze River in June and July, and the autumn harvest all over the world in August and September, the court paid special attention to it and even sent personnel Go straight to the world. The prince will definitely keep an eye on every opportunity, but he will not stand any chance."

"Your Majesty will not really wait until October for the Turkic cavalry, and then see the prince colluding with the Turks." Liu Jinyu looked at Li Xuan nervously.

Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said: "No, His Majesty will take action before that. If you lose opportunities again and again, and become impetuous again and again, the prince will reveal his flaws."

"August and September are the time when the world is harvesting." Liu Jinyu nodded lightly and said, "So, in August and September this year, I will just stay in Chang'an City with my whole family."

"That's right, don't go outside the city, let alone go back to Pengzhou." Li Xuan looked at the darkness above his head and said softly: "In Chang'an City, although it is easy to be targeted, it is not easy to do something. Even if you can succeed, It is also easy to be repeated, and ultimately accomplish nothing.

Leaving Chang'an, although the whereabouts are easy to be secretive, the opponent can also let go of their hands and feet, and then only one or two hundred people can capture everyone directly..."

"So don't be smart, right?" Liu Jinyu understood what Li Xuan meant.

Li Xuan smiled softly, hugged his wife into his arms, and said in a low voice: "There are two possibilities for the prince to take action: one is that something happens to a certain prime minister, and the emperor must be shaken..." "Ah Weng." Liu Jinyu endured it. He kept shouting in a low voice.

Liu Rengui was of great importance to the entire Liu family, the entire Nanchang Palace, and even the entire world.

Once something happens to him, I'm afraid the emperor will drop everything and rush back to Chang'an from Luoyang.

"Yue Weng is a cautious man. He has the most secret guards in the world. It is the least likely for others to take action on him." Li Xuan shook his head slightly and said softly: "The other prime ministers may be, Hao Xiang, Zhao Xiang, If the prince is crazy and desperate, no one can control him."

Liu Jinyu instantly felt the turbulence of the future.

"There is one last possibility, what is the last possibility for the prince to rebel?" Liu Jinyu finally couldn't help but ask.

Li Xuan sighed softly, shook his head, and said: "If the previous situation had not happened, and the prince was tightly restrained, or that he could control his own desires, then it would be others who should be anxious... If At this moment, if someone takes action and directly assassinates the prince, all conflicts will explode in an instant."

Li Xian, Li Xian.

When he believed that he was not the son of Empress Wu and Li Zhi, he had already determined that he would never be able to ascend the throne again in the future.

At this time, he had regarded the Empress Wu and even the Emperor as his biggest enemy.

Everything began to slide towards the most unpredictable dark abyss, and no one could save Li Xian.

"What we should do is to hide far away, and then accept all the inheritance left by the East Palace after the prince is deposed." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said softly: "At that time, Li Xian is Li Xian, and we are We must distinguish what we need to distinguish, otherwise when the Wei family starts to reject us in the future, it will be too late to hide."

Li Xian was deposed, and the Nanchang Palace had a lot to gain.

"What can we get?" Liu Jinyu frowned slightly and asked, "Although the East Palace has some money over the years, these things are all registered in the palace and cannot be taken away."

Li Xuan shook his head and said: "The money in the East Palace is divided into three parts. One part is the rewards from the palace. Even the prince dare not touch these things. The other part is the prince's salary. The salaries of the officials in the East Palace belong to the prince's personal property." shops, caravans and mines, as well as offerings from others. The third part is some unknown things, but we don’t know how many these things are and where they are hidden, but the secret guards may not have no idea."

After a slight pause, Li Xuan shook his head and said: "We can't get these things at home. Even if some people did it, it was Wu Chengsi and the Wei family. Their actions may be acquiesced by His Majesty and the Queen. "

Wu Chengsi was Empress Wu's nephew, and the Wei family were Li Xian's relatives. If they took these things, the emperor would acquiesce.

But if anyone else takes action, the emperor may immediately unleash his thunderous wrath.

"But the real value of the East Palace is not in money, but in the other two aspects." Li Xuan slowly analyzed everything in the East Palace.

Liu Jinyu lay in Li Xuan's arms and listened, feeling that everything in the East Palace was under the control of her husband.

"First of all, the talents in the East Palace: if something happens to the prince this time, Prime Minister Zhang will not have any problems, but Duke Huangfu will be sent away, and no one can save him. The one we can really win over is the prince Xima Liu Nayan ." Li Xuan's eyes flickered, Liu Nayan was a real talent.

Liu Jinyu nodded gently. The emperor chose almost all virtuous ministers as prime ministers for the prince.

Whether it is Zhang Wenguan, the current concubine of the East Palace Zuo, or Zhang Daan, his predecessor, their abilities are almost among the best in the world.

Huangfu Gongyi and Liu Nayan were also chosen at the moment.

"Officials in the East Palace are generally divided into three categories. One category is chief officials like Zhang Xiang and Huangfu Gong, the other category is Liu Nayan and other poor families, and the last category is Xue Yao and other aristocratic families and Gao Qi and other meritorious children.

The only people who may really be spared by His Majesty are Liu Nayan and others, but these people may eventually be wiped out by being demoted and exiled. "

Li Xuan hugged Liu Jinyu and said softly: "To win them over, the palace cannot directly come forward. It is best to let Huang Gong come forward, especially Liu Nayan. They are both from Du Shuiyuan."

Liu Jinyu had always known that Huang Rensu and her husband had known each other for a long time, but she never expected that they were so close.

“The last category in the East Palace, and the ones that are most easily overlooked, are the maids and servants in the East Palace.

When the prince is deposed, they will either be demoted to Yeting or be sent out directly. "Li Xuan's eyes were a little bright.

Liu Jinyu's face changed slightly, and after she calmed down, she whispered: "Husband, these people are not easy for our palace to get in touch with."

"Of course, my husband knows this." Li Xuan hugged her gently, and then said in a low voice: "It is best for these people to let the Crown Prince of Luoyang, Concubine Pei, take over. Just as it is said, she also needs people to serve her.

With Tong'er here, we can indirectly contact the people left in the East Palace through these people.

Once Li Xian ascends the throne in the future, we will be able to contact the palace through these people. "

Liu Jinyu's brows jumped and she couldn't help but ask: "Lang Jun, have you ever thought about the future? How do you plan to go in the future?"
