Datang first village

At noon, the eldest grandson Wuji entered the palace and handed over a sign asking to see the queen.

Li Er, who was preparing to have dinner with Empress Changsun, happened to be in Empress Changsun's palace.

Hearing Changsun Wuji begging to see him, he stood up resolutely and said to Eunuch Gao, "Go and tell Wulang that I want to have a drink with Wulang at noon today, and let him be hungry first and wait for me!"

The time for eating in the palace is mostly at the beginning of noon, which is around eleven o'clock in the morning.

And Li Yuanxing's meal time would be around noon, that is, around twelve o'clock, and sometimes later.Because Li Yuanxing is used to eating more breakfast, eat well.And I don't like to eat late at night, so I postponed lunch and dinner later, so I don't need to have an extra meal at night.

"Why did Erlang avoid it?" Empress Changsun was puzzled.

Li Er signaled to Eunuch Gao to send someone to pass on the message first, and then said: "The maidservant Guanyin doesn't know something. Yesterday afternoon, the aristocratic families from all over the Tang Dynasty sent representatives to Wulang's mansion. Wulang opened a mouth of 500 million guan, The aristocratic family didn't even pay back the price, so they agreed to pay 500 million guan. There will only be more, not less. The representative sent by Daibei is the Changsun family, and the eldest grandson Wuxian! At night, Wuxian and Wuji didn't say anything. After a word, nothing was spoken between them, nor by anyone else."

Empress Changsun understood.

The eldest grandson Wuji entered the palace for their family affairs.

Li Er will not participate in this matter, if Li Er participates in a small matter, it will become a major event.

A pair of brothers and sisters from the eldest grandson family who were kicked out of the house back then, and the fifth younger brother who was still a child, turned out to be an extreme minister, and the other was the mother of the country.

"It's a good thing Goro doesn't know about these old things!" Empress Changsun sighed softly.

Li Er shook his head: "Wulang is a person who has been known for 500 years before and 500 years later. Maybe he doesn't know? Yuan Gai Suwen didn't enter Chang'an, and even gave Qin Qiong the information of ten generations of his family. What about Silla? Princess Kinderman has just entered Chang'an, and Goro even knows that she likes to eat sour and what color clothes she likes to wear best."

Empress Changsun sighed softly again, and just said: "At Wulang's place, Erlang must not drink too much!"

"I'm going!" Li Er didn't want to say any more.

Changsun Wuji was led by the servants to take a detour in the imperial garden, just avoiding Li Er's exit from the palace.

Entering the palace of Empress Changsun, lunch has already been served here, exactly two servings.Of the eunuchs and maids in the palace, only the two most trusted ones remained, and the rest were sent outside.

"Brother is it for the third brother's business?"

"I don't have an older brother!" Changsun Wuji's tone was cold.

"He is not benevolent, we cannot be unrighteous, what should the people of the world say? My brother and sister are extremely honorable, but do we want to avenge him for the private affairs of the family? Why can't we let go of the knot? Is the political situation really stable at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty? Since the enthronement of the Holy One , There are already four important ministers who have publicly rebelled, brother, do you dare to say that there will be no fifth?" The words of Empress Changsun are extremely serious.

At this time, Changsun Wuji was dazzled by hatred.

I can't hear anything anymore.

On the other side, in General Tiance's mansion, Li Yuanxing cooked a few small dishes himself, and waited for Li Er to come over in the study.

"Is it difficult, brother?"

"Your sister-in-law, please order An Ye to be the general in charge of the right gate!"

An Ye is the eldest grandson Wuxian.

Li Yuanxing smiled coldly: "This is to give him a chance to rebel. In fact, the result is to be killed or exiled." Li Yuanxing knew the history. Changsun Wuxian rebelled in December of the first year of Zhenguan, of course he was not the mastermind.

Li Er sat down and poured himself a glass of wine.

"Who is the mastermind?"

"Li Xiaochang is the mastermind, and the other mastermind is Liu Deyu. Two other people were also involved, one is Changsun Shunde, and the other is Liu Hongji. If Changsun Wuxian becomes the prison general, then they can directly attack Entering the inner palace, no matter what the result is, it must be death."

Li Yuanxing's tone did not seem to be talking about rebellion at all, but telling a story.

Li Er was a little puzzled: "Why didn't Wulang stop this matter?"

"Except for killing, there is nothing to stop it."

"Brother, I have plenty of time today to listen to Goro telling stories!" Li Er also told stories, not rebellion.

Li Yuanxing poured wine for both of them, and then continued: "Let's talk about the background of this guy's choice first. He was from the hidden ranks, and his son was killed when he was purging his party members. He came to Chang'an just to Seeking stability, a gesture of surrender, I don't know if he is sincere or fake."

"Half-true, half-false!" Li Er commented.

Li Yuanxing didn't answer Li Er's words, and continued: "After the imperial brother ascended the throne, the situation in the court can be said to be that the people in the old Qin palace are in power. If the aristocratic family didn't have a hand in it, they would also be subject to the power of the court. As for the old hands in the hands of the father, most of them were cleaned up, and the people in the hidden prince's party can be said to be completely cleaned up. Then Li Xiaochang has been idle in Chang'an for more than half a year, without official arrangements, and no one pays attention to him, because He is insignificant."

"Goro distributes the aristocratic family, and he doesn't care about the interests of the nobles."

"I don't want to take care of the affairs of the court. People in the old Qin Palace fight for some power, as long as they don't go too far, it's human nature. What I want is capable people. Li Xiaochang is not a capable minister, and the family It is also impossible to be a helper for making money, even if the younger brother knows that he will rebel, he doesn't bother to care about it."

Li Er agreed with Li Yuanxing's words.

Not to mention Li Yuanxing, even if he himself was fighting for power and position in the court against the people of the old Qin Palace, he would not take care of it.After all, these people have lived and died with him for so many years, and if they don't give this status, it will chill people's hearts.

Li Yuanxing got up, went to the table and found three envelopes.

"The letter was given by brother Shubao. Li Yili, a boy who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, actually publicized the relationship between their Li family and King Qi in the market. At this time, under such circumstances, he is cheating!"

It's cheating.

After Li Er read the letter, he smiled wryly and shook his head, this was forcing his father Li Xiaochang to die.

"This is from Liu Hongji and Changsun Shunde, among them is the letter written by Li Xiaochang to them, which already hints that the Li family is not necessarily that Li?"

Li Er picked up the letter, first read Li Xiaochang's letter, and then read the two generals' self-defense.

"They are sensible and know what they can't do. However, this is also Wulang's trick. They dare not rebel. They know that they can't fight against the Qin Palace with their little strength. Next, what will Wulang do?" Li Er threw all the letters aside.

Li Yuanxing smiled: "What about Brother Guanchen should be what the emperor thinks should be done!"

"Let them conspire, and take them down before they get into trouble!" Li Er is the real ruthless person.

Li Xiaochang has meritorious service, which can be said to be the meritorious service of Conglong.

It was he who changed the disadvantage of Datang against the Sui army and completed a huge strategic turning point.So he can say that when Li Yuan was the emperor, he had a very high identity and status.

But Li Er didn't like this person.

Li Xiaochang's family prospered in the former Sui Dynasty, and just after the Tang Dynasty raised troops, he dedicated Yongfeng warehouse to Li Yuan, which gave Li Yuan a greater strategy to manipulate.What's more, at that time, Li Yuan faced the suppression of Qu Tutong in the former Sui Dynasty, and the war did not go smoothly.

Li Xiaochang is a speculator, which is why Li Er dislikes this person.

Li Yuanxing said at this time: "Liu Deyu is an accomplice, but he is not a subordinate. They are competitors. If they are easy to be beheaded, if they really succeed in rebelling, no one will make the other emperor."

"Ha, haha!" Li Ergan laughed twice.

What kind of rebellion is this? It's just a group of idiots, a group of mobs, and a group of useless trash who, under their chastity and prosperity, have united to do some stupid things that don't even have the slightest success rate.

(Note: According to historical records, this rebellion was real, but in fact it was a bunch of idiots, without organization, without sufficient political support, or even with enough troops.)

Although it was a mob, Li Er frowned.

These people are trash, but the family behind them is not.It can be said that the families behind these people are already part of Datang's core circle of influence.

"Wu Lang thinks, is it to cleanse or appease?" Li Er was in a dilemma.

Li Yuanxing spread his hands: "If this is going to be killed, there are no thousands of people who can't stop it. It can be said that all the roots of the hidden prince's party have been removed. But how should it be written in history? There are not many good historians, and they will definitely Write it down, this is a brutal operation to cleanse hostile forces, a killing to increase the centralization of power!"

"What Goro said is true!" Li Er was very satisfied with Li Yuanxing's statement, especially in Li Er's eyes, the historian was also helpless.

"Appease, a bunch of greedy guys. If you dare to ask for a little today, you will dare to ask for more tomorrow, so appeasement is not a good idea. To kill is definitely to kill a few people, but who to kill, Brother Huang has an idea! " Li Yuanxing suggested again.

"Kill Liu Deyu!"

Li Er blurted out almost without thinking.

"Success, leave it to the younger brother. I don't have time these few days. When Li Xiaochang really pulls Sun Wuxian into the water in a few days, the younger brother will play with them. By the way, there will be some hard work. Someone still needs to do it. Guangyuan is a man." What a great place, building mountains and building roads there is hard work, but it is a great deed for generations to come!"

"Brother, I will issue an order tomorrow to promote Sun Wuxian to the official position!" Li Er didn't care about killing people.

But Li Er cares about how historians write about him, especially how those historians will evaluate him after his death.

Li Er had enough reasons to kill Liu Deyu.Li Er couldn't tolerate people who betrayed him. Liu Deyu used to be an official of Prince Qin's mansion, but was later dragged to the prince's mansion by Li Jiancheng with some not-so-big secrets. Based on this alone, Liu Deyu should not live, and only killed him, Li Er felt Be kind to yourself.
