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

Chapter 1369 Songshan Zhongdaoren and Langya King Li Chong died
In the bedroom, Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu put Xia'er, who had just finished her medicinal bath, to sleep.

Seeing their daughter's face flushed with exhaustion, both Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu had a hint of unbearability on their faces.

At this moment, rapid footsteps sounded, and both of them turned their heads at the same time.

The person standing outside the door was Li Bi. He held his hands in a hurried tone and said: "Your Majesty, Princess, your Majesty has just issued an edict. According to the judgment of the Sanfa Division, Li Chong, the king of Langya, will die immediately. Li Zhen, the king of Yue, will surrender and grant the title of Anlu County Prince. He was sent to live in Anzhou; Xiao Guan was sentenced to death by hanging, and Xiao Dezhao was sentenced to exile for three thousand miles to Yazhou."

Li Xuan paused slightly and said to the door: "Okay, I understand, go down."

"Here!" Li Bi breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly handed over and left.

"It's only been three days." Li Xuan sighed softly, with a sigh on her face. In any case, Li Chong and he were somewhat related by blood, so it was sad to die like this.

Especially Li Zhaode and others originally thought that the emperor would at least let Li Chong live through the New Year. Who would have thought that just after the New Year, the emperor had already ordered Li Chong to die.

"This just shows that your husband's view is right." Liu Jinyu's face became serious, and she looked at Li Xuan and said: "Husband, King Langya has been sentenced to death, do we want to keep a close eye on him?"

Langya King Li Chong is the key to refining the Zhonglu Yanming Pill. Cao King Li Ming died early. Now they want to find out more, and Li Chong's clue is their best starting point.

The place where medicine is made, the person who makes medicine, and the method of making medicine can all be found out by following this line.

"My husband has already made arrangements over there in Luoyang. He can't move here in Chang'an as long as he can. His Majesty might be staring at everyone. If someone really finds out that we are staring at this matter, we might not be able to celebrate the New Year." This is our family." Li Xuan shook her head slightly.

"What exactly did your husband arrange in Luoyang?" Liu Jinyu finally couldn't help but ask.

Li Xuan smiled, hugged her into his arms, and then whispered: "The method of being a husband has always been different from others. For example, in Kaihua Fang, the husband is placed in two places, one at the gate of the square , one is on the watchtower further north, and other people always pass through these two places, especially the palace. "

Liu Jinyu was slightly surprised. It was not that she didn't know this before, but only now did she understand the key.

When the people in the palace arrive, they will be the first to notice it on the watchtower. After that, if they need time, they can completely close the gate.

The time gained is not much, even just half a quarter of an hour is enough to carry out some decoration at home.

"As for getting to Luoyang." Li Xuan lowered her voice and said more carefully: "On the bank of the Wei River from Chang'an to Luoyang, every fifty miles, there is a winter fisherman watching on the shore. To Luoyang.”

Liu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked in a low voice: "What if they don't go by water but by land? That would be faster after all."

"From Chang'an to Luoyang, there are so many checkpoints, and there are too many eyesights from all sides watching, and my husband is naturally one of them."

After a slight pause, Li Xuan said with a solemn gaze: "Actually, the road from Chang'an to Luoyang is easy to monitor. The really difficult part is Luoyang, especially Songshan Mountain. If nothing unexpected happens, they should climb Songshan Mountain at night."

Luoyang is the capital of the Tang Dynasty. There are countless people in the palace who don't know how many people there are. It is difficult to kill him in Luoyang. The only place is Songshan Mountain.

"The foot of Songshan Mountain is barely the only point, but it becomes even more difficult after going up the mountain." Li Xuan sighed softly.

Although there is only one official road up the mountain in Songshan, it only means that there is only one official road that is easy to walk, and there are many other difficult roads.

This is the case at the bottom of the mountain, and on top of Songshan Mountain, the path is even more twists and turns.

Although there is only one Taoist temple in Songshan where Master Pan is currently, Li Xuan has lived there for more than a month, but he found nothing.

One can imagine how secretive that place is.

"But after all, they won't be too far away from the Songshan Taoist Temple. They are all disciples of Maoshan. On weekdays, the transportation of various medicinal materials is only transferred by Taoist disciples and will not be conspicuous." Liu Jinyu immediately grasped the key point.

"Our people can't penetrate." Li Xuan sighed softly and said, "Every one of the Maoshan disciples has followed Pan Shizheng for many years. Every newcomer who enters will be scrutinized repeatedly. It is too difficult to do anything."

"Then what should we do? We don't care about the Songshan Mountains." Liu Jinyu couldn't help but gritted his teeth.

"It just depends on luck." Li Xuan shook his head and said: "My husband has three arrangements in Songshan Mountain, one at the foot of the mountain, one at the top of the mountain, and one among the civilians who are repairing the Taoist temple. Now in winter, the grass and trees are withered and yellow, and the view is It’s wide open. As long as they don’t take a remote path, they should be able to lock in a certain range. As for the rest, they will just find it slowly.”

Liu Jinyu paused for a moment, nodded slightly and said, "This is already the best way."

If they don't want the emperor to discover them spying on secrets, this is the only best way.

"Actually, it's not that there are no other ways." Li Xuan suddenly lowered his head and said in deep thought: "In a place like this where alchemy is made, the least thing is water flow... Water is needed to make alchemy, and water is needed to extinguish fires. As long as you catch the flow of water in the mountains, Just anywhere.”

Liu Jinyu suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Xuan in surprise. With this clue, they would be able to find it faster.

Li Xuan shook her head and said, "But be careful. If they discover an underground river, it will be even more hidden."

"Underground river?" Liu Jinyu's expression changed slightly and she asked in a low voice: "Husband, are there any underground rivers in Songshan Mountain?"

"It must exist." Li Xuan nodded and said: "The Luo River is vast, and the underground is even deeper. It is not surprising that there is an underground river, but generally underground rivers have too much earth energy. If it is for alchemy, one is not good. , it may affect the balance of the five elements of the alchemy, it depends on the level of the alchemy person. "Zhong Wuwei" Liu Jinyu's eyes showed a look of incomparable hatred. It was this person who started the alchemy furnace in Songshan. Her family was dragged into danger.

"Ren Zhongdao has inherited Zhongli Quan, and he can be valued by His Majesty. His methods are extraordinary. It is said that it is not difficult to control the balance of the five elements, but now this elixir method has been lost too much. If variables are added, it will eventually have an impact." Li Xuan took a deep breath and her face became serious.

Zhong Wuwei is not only a descendant of Zhong Liquan, but also a disciple of Maoshan and Pan Shizheng's junior brother. His cultivation level is definitely good, and it is definitely not easy to deal with him.

"No matter what, let's pass the news on first." At this time, Liu Jinyu decisively put aside all worries.

"Not now." Li Xuan let go of Liu Jinyu, walked to the window, opened it, looked at the blue sky above her head, and said softly: "At this time, any homing pigeon flying up will be shot down immediately. Your Majesty will not give anyone a chance to do this."

Liu Jinyu suddenly walked to the window and said with a regretful expression: "We made too many moves before."

"This is not a bad thing." Li Xuan shook her head, hugged Liu Jinyu, and whispered: "The more we move, the more important we are in our hearts, and His Majesty will not touch her easily. of."

This was Li Xuan's confidence. Li Xuan was not only the current heir with a heavy army, but also had great prestige among the clan.

If the emperor really took action against Xia'er, not to mention the clan, even the government and the opposition would not agree.

Not to mention Liu Rengui is here.

Of course, this is normal.

What I was afraid of was that once the emperor was in a coma and forced an order, no one would be able to react in time.

The more Li Xuan moves now, the more the emperor will not dare to mess around.

But Li Xuan's actions definitely did not include spying on Songshan Mountain.

That is the top secret among the emperor's top secrets. Anyone snooping there is tantamount to spying on the emperor's confidants and is punishable by death.

"Then what should we do? Chang'an and Luoyang can only take a day." Liu Jinyu was worried that they would take action too late and the clues would be gone.

"It's the end of the year now, and there are a lot of exchanges at home, but there is a long history outside watching, so it's hard to do anything. Once the family leaves the house, I'm afraid they will be targeted." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said: "In this case, it's still for It’s better for you to do it yourself.”

"Wouldn't it attract more attention if your husband moves?" Liu Jinyu was confused for a moment.

Li Xuan sighed softly and said: "King Langya was sentenced to death and King Yue was demoted. These are important matters for the clan. My husband has to find someone to discuss the subsequent funeral."

Liu Jinyu paused slightly and participated in the funeral of King Langya. Wasn't this inviting trouble to himself?
Li Xuan smiled and said in a low voice: "This time the King of Yue is planning for rebellion, there are many vacancies for governors in the court. King Zheng has always wanted to serve as governor. Now let's see if there is any position suitable for him."

"Building the plank road openly, but secretly destroying Chencang?" Liu Jinyu immediately understood what Li Xuan was thinking.

"It's just making a fool of yourself. The key is to see yourself." Li Xuan waved her hand, closed the window again, then walked to the bed, looked at Xia'er whose expression was still calming down, and whispered: "Xia'er's medicinal bath. My husband has already mentioned the steps before. When my husband leaves Chang'an next year, my wife will just follow them."

"Yes!" Liu Jinyu nodded seriously. Even though the two of them made many arrangements, Xia'er was their last flaw and the primary target of others.

If other people's methods fall on Xia'er, it means that both Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu have been temporarily diverted, and in the end the only one who can rely on Xia'er is herself.

And all of this is still on top of the medicinal bath.

Once something goes wrong, in addition to Li Xuan and Liu Jinyu actively looking for someone, Xia'er herself also needs to have enough means to delay time.

So in the past few days, Liu Jinyu began to learn from Li Xuan in spreading medicinal powder.

If Li Xuan is not in Chang'an in the future, she will have to take over these matters.

"My tiger girl, if you don't take action, it will be enough. Once you do, it will definitely shock the world." Li Xuan couldn't help but smile, with a satisfied smile on her face.

Li Xuan has been teaching Xia'er to be decisive since she was a child. Nowadays, several younger brothers in the family are afraid of Xia'er.

Liu Jinyu rolled her eyes at Li Xuan, and then said angrily: "Those chicken meatballs and mutton meatballs you made, I'm afraid that if I don't last, my daughter will eat them all."

Li Xuan prepared a lot of chicken meatballs and mutton meatballs for Xia'er, just because she was afraid that she would fall into Zhao Qi's situation again in the future.

Having these things can at least last a little longer.

"Then air-dry the preserved meat and fruits. Air-drying can always keep it longer." Li Xuan sighed softly and whispered: "My husband really doesn't want everything to come to that point."

"It depends on your majesty, how far you can hold on?" Liu Jinyu's eyes were cold and stern.
