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

Chapter 1359 The lady is indeed worthy of being a lady

It was clear after the snow, and the official road connecting the east and west of Chang'an was finally cleared.

A long motorcade came from the southwest. In addition to the one from Prince Li Xuanpeng's Mansion, there were also other business travelers and pedestrians who were also trapped in the mountains.

Although Ziwu Road is steep, it is close; although Chencang Road is stable, it is far away.

However, in Chencang Road, there are many places where supplies can be supplied, and there is no need to worry about bandits.

"Transparency, the East Palace needs to ensure enough transparency to His Majesty." Li Xuan leaned in the carriage, holding Xia'er who looked confused, looked at Liu Jinyu and said: "As long as Your Majesty can control every move of the East Palace, he will naturally no longer be suspicious. What?"

"What should we do? We can't let the prince write the first memorial every day and tell His Majesty what he did every day, right?"

Liu Jinyu understood Li Xuan's thoughts and felt completely at ease since the emperor knew everything about the East Palace, but she couldn't figure out how to operate it.

Everyone in the government and the public is looking at the East Palace. If this is really done, the perception of the prince among the officials in the government will immediately drop.

"Of course it won't be like this." Li Xuan shook his head and said, "Let the prince handle official affairs more with the officials of the East Palace and do less private things. In addition, the teaching in the East Palace can also be expanded, including the wine sacrifices in the Imperial College and the siye industry. The prime ministers, ministers, governors, general supervisors, capital water supervisors, and other people from the same yamen can be invited to teach the prince. "

After a slight pause, Li Xuan said: "You can let Xiang Xue mention this matter. If he talks about it, it will be easier for Your Majesty to accept it, and it will be easier for all officials in the government and the public to accept it."

"In this way, all the officials in the court will have enough understanding of the East Palace, and Your Majesty will have a clearer understanding of the East Palace." Liu Jinyu nodded and touched Zhao'er's forehead in his arms. The temperature dropped slightly. Liu Jin Yu then continued: "There is also a problem here, and that is the Book of Han."

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then her face darkened.

With so many people from all walks of life, it is inevitable that people will have other ideas.

Even if there are no rumors about the repair of "Book of Han", as long as someone mentions it, the East Palace will immediately fall into passivity.

"My husband once thought about selecting some cautionary stories from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and even today's history books and celebrity family histories." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said: "Let's do an experiment first. As for the "Han Shu" "When Your Majesty is alive, you will never practice it, and when the Queen is alive, you will not practice it either. To the outside world, just use the word filial piety to silence others."

Liu Jinyu frowned and said, "There seems to be something wrong with what I said. Isn't your husband trying to use this hand to blackmail the Queen?"

Li Xuan paused for a moment, then nodded and said: "My husband does have this idea. The Queen has been in power for a long time. Even if it happens in the future, it will be extremely difficult for the Queen to give up her power. As a son, the Prince can The only thing we have control over is the history books of the future.”

"It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate." Liu Jinyu shook his head and said, "Even I can tell that something is wrong, let alone the Queen. No matter what, I don't want the Queen to feel disgusted with the prince, so even if I don't do anything, If you do it, even if you are questioned by others, you will be embarrassed, but this book will not be revised if you can. As for those who question it, let them face the Queen of Heaven. "

"Haha!" Li Xuan laughed and nodded at the same time: "My lady is indeed a lady... Eh!"

Li Xuan's laughter suddenly stopped, and she suddenly stuck her head out to look outside.

Liu Jinyu was surprised. At this moment, a clear and rapid sound of horse hooves came from the direction of Chang'an.

……

The three Qianniu Guards reined up their horses and stopped beside Li Xuan's car. They handed an official document to Li Xuan and said at the same time: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince asked us to send the official document to the Prince quickly and also ask the Prince to reply with a letter. "

"Wait a moment." Li Xuan looked to the back. Li Zhu urged him forward. Li Xuan said, "Go and call Chang Shi."

"Here!" Li Zhu immediately turned away from his horse.

Li Xuan then opened the official document, took a look at it, her face changed slightly, and then Li Xuan handed the official document to Liu Jinyu and said at the same time: "Last night, someone accused the right prime minister of acting carelessly, being lax in caring for the family, and indulging the children of the family and being rebellious. "

"It was about Xiao Xian last night, but no one labeled him a traitor!" Liu Jinyu frowned suddenly.

"It's just an excuse." Li Xuan waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty issued an order today. In response to the snowstorm in the north, he ordered Wu Chengsi, the Minister of Rites, to go to Henan, Hebei, and Andong for inspection and relief; he ordered the Minister's right servant Li Jingxuan to inspect Ganzhou and Yunnan. , appease the people and check the officials and set off within three days.”

"Then why didn't you ask the Right Prime Minister to go to the North?" Liu Jinyu looked puzzled.

Li Xuan shook his head and said, "Because someone impeached him, if the Right Prime Minister went to the North, it would be like a demotion."

"Then if Duke Zhou went to the north, wouldn't he be demoted?"

"No, he was demoted." Li Xuan glanced at the official document and said, "One is going to the northeast and the other is going to the southwest. It looks like a bowl of water. It seems that neither of them is demoted, but in fact everyone understands. Both of them were demoted."

"But this is different from what my husband said before!" Liu Jinyu couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

Last night, Li Xuan said personally that Wu Chengsi was dead.

Li Xuan shook his head slightly. At this moment, Li Zhaode's voice sounded outside the car window: "Your Majesty."

"Long history." Li Xuan turned around, handed the official document in Liu Jinyu's hand to Li Zhaode, and said: "The official letter just issued by the DPRK stated that Wu Chengsi, the Minister of Rites, went to Henan, Hebei, and Andong to inspect disaster relief; the Minister's right servant shot Li Jingxuan inspected Ganzhou and Yunnan to appease the people and inspect the officials. "

"This is what we should do." Li Zhaode took the official document and said directly without thinking too much: "There have been several heavy snowfalls in the north this year. If the court does not provide disaster relief, I am afraid something will happen. As for the southwest, a few years ago, the court had an official document. Every year, officials of rank three or above are sent to review the administration of officials. Although the right prime minister is a minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it is a bit excessive, but it is also suitable... impeachment? "

"Your Majesty just asked the right minister to go out to avoid the limelight." Li Xuan smiled and said, "It's better to hide than to fight hard for this kind of thing."

"What the prince said is absolutely true." Li Zhaode nodded, his eyes fell on Wu Chengsi's reassignment for inspection, and he passed by without paying any attention.

"Your Highness asked me to write a reply after reading the official document. Please ask Chang Shi to write it." Li Xuan looked at Li Zhaode with a gentle expression. "Yes!" Li Zhaode earnestly handed over his hand, and Li Zhu beside him had already put pen and paper on the carriage.

Li Xuan pondered for a moment, and then An Hou said: "Now the heavy snow in the north is not limited to Henan, Hebei, and Andong, but also the northwest. Please send His Majesty the East Palace staff to contact Yongzhou Mansion to assist Yongzhou Mansion in dealing with the rescue of the victims. As soon as the need arises, the remaining wealth in the East Palace will be available. After the agreement is reached, I will ask Xue Xiang to submit this copy to Your Majesty."

Li Zhaode's beautiful handwriting appeared on the paper and took shape in a short time.

Li Xuan put the memorial in, then handed it to Qian Niuwei, saying: "Send it back to the East Palace, and the prince will read it."

"Here!" Qian Niuwei immediately turned around and left without any hesitation.

Li Zhaode looked at Qian Niuwei's leaving figure and sighed in his heart. Although King Peng did not mention Wu Chengsi and Li Jingxuan in his reply, in fact, everything that should be said has been said, and what was not said has actually been said. That's all.

Regarding the matter of Wu Chengsi and Li Jingxuan, the East Palace is not involved. The East Palace is busy with the snow disaster and has no energy for other things.

"Your Majesty, Duke Zhou and Duke Zhao will leave in three days. Does the palace want to send someone to see them off?" Li Zhaode looked at Li Xuan solemnly.

"I won't go." Li Xuan waved his hand and sighed: "This time Duke Zhou was demoted, it was partly because of me. If I go, there will inevitably be disputes. Chang Shi will send him off on my behalf." Send it to Duke Zhou.

As for Zhao Guogong, Li Zhu should go. On the battlefield, Li Zhu also had a relationship with Zhao Guogong. "

"Here!" Li Zhaode handed over his hand. He knew that Li Xuan was talking about what happened in Shanzhou that year.

The Turkic Guang army raided Shanzhou, and it was Li Zhu who led the Chinese army to rescue them.

Because Li Zhu was Li Xuan's person, Li Jingxuan still remembered him.

"As for the others, there's no need for that. It's the censor who impeached Duke Zhao. Chang Shi wants to inquire about his origins." Li Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Here!"

……

After sitting back in the carriage, Zhao'er and Xia'er had been sent to another car, leaving only Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu in the car.

"Husband, what are the chances that Duke Zhou will return to the court safely this time when he inspects Anton?" Liu Jinyu asked Li Xuan in a low voice.

"Henan, Hebei, and Andong are full of mountains and rivers. If you are not careful, you may lose your footing and fall into the water." At this point, Li Xuan couldn't help but pause.

He thought of another man who had almost fallen into the water.

It is true that there are many people who slip and fall into the water in this world, but it is precisely because of this that falling into the water is one of the best ways to cover up murder.

Wang Bo was like this, and so was Wu Chengsi.

At this time, there are too many people who want Wu Chengsi to die, and Li Xuan doesn't mind giving him a ride at this time.

However, Li Xuan's manpower will be waiting in Anton to send Wu Chengsi back to the west when he reaches the last step of Anton.

In this way, even though Empress Wu had made plans along the way, she was still beyond her reach when she arrived at Anton.

"Then what about Duke Zhao? He was demoted to Ganzhou. Will he end up like Duke Zhou?" Liu Jinyu looked at Li Xuan worriedly.

Will Li Jingxuan be killed directly like Wu Chengsi?

Li Xuan shook his head gently and said: "Although Zhao Guogong is the prime minister, our Datang is different from others. After deposing the prime minister, it is extremely difficult to make a comeback. Therefore, relatively speaking, the threat of Zhao Guogong is very small, so The chance that he will be attacked is very small, and after all, he has been a military commander, so it is not that easy to kill him. "

Liu Jinyu nodded slightly, and then said: "Now that Zhou Guogong and Zhao Guogong are the examples, it will be much easier to deal with other people in the future."

“I can only say that it’s a little faster, but not better.” Li Xuan shook his head slightly.

The emperor has made it clear that these matters must be dealt with seriously and quickly. It would be strange if other people really have an easy time.

Liu Jinyu smiled and said: "If His Majesty really wants... then the two positions of Chaozhong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and Shangshu's right servant will be vacant at once."

Li Xuan looked solemn and said softly: "That's not all. The positions of Minister of War, Right Guards, Zhonglang, and many other governors and prime ministers have also become vacant. At this time, I am afraid that many people have started to compete for them. Grabbed it."

"Then, husband, do you want to do it?" Liu Jinyu's voice was very low.

Li Xuan shook her head and said: "You can't move the position inside here. If you move, someone will catch you. But if you don't move, it doesn't mean that we can't get any benefits from this matter. Everything will end in the end." It still depends on how His Majesty operates."

"Yeah!" Liu Jinyu nodded lightly.

Li Xuan reached out and hugged Liu Jinyu into his arms, and then whispered: "Now, we can just take a look at what kind of plans His Majesty will have for the future."

"So, everything that is happening now is planned by His Majesty?" Liu Jinyu raised her head and said softly: "So, it is the fields in Jiangnan?"
