------------------------------------------------

"Li Jing is the heir of my Chen family!" Tian Lingzi cried, crying very sadly. "My family was poor since I was a child, and there were four brothers, but the family could not support them. The eldest brother and the fourth brother died one after another, and the slaves had to go to the palace. Sanye, with eight males, this old slave is overjoyed, the Chen family has finally passed on the lineage."

In the pale sunlight, the nine life roots in the jade box shrank into several ugly shapes, exuding a stench.If it weren't for the few notes pasted on it, with a personal name written on it, it would be unimaginable.

Li Xuan was still wearing a set of horse-walking crotch folds and [***] boots, hearing Tian Lingzi's heart-piercing howl, he couldn't help frowning.The young emperor actually wanted to laugh, thinking to himself that the national stuff was too ugly.On the other hand, he began to wonder to himself, who on earth had the guts to strike so hard, and dared to cut off all the crotches of Tian Lingzi, father and son.

He speculated that maybe it was the work of Aiqing who had never met.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a headache.

Tian Lingzi is a close and veteran minister by his side, so he naturally has nothing to say to him. I am impatient with political affairs, so I leave them to take care of them, so I can be so relaxed.But Li Jing is also good, not only often donates money, food and various new things, but also a talented and capable person.Although he stays in Jiuzhong, he can often hear about Li Jing. The Dengzhou he governs is very good, the roads are not picked up, the house is not closed at night, and there are no beggars in Dengzhou. Everyone has food and clothes. .Moreover, he can lead wars, wipe out pirates, and rebel monks, which is not good for the past.

It would have been a great thing to have a close minister like Tian Lingzi inside and a capable minister like Li Jing outside.Why are these two people having such an unpleasant fight?

He had already sent a message to Li Jing, saying that after he entered Chang'an, Tian Lingzi would personally hold a banquet to apologize to him for his mistake, but Li Jing just refused to let go.

"If the second brother spent half his life, he used to sell cakes in Xuzhou for a living and serve his parents." Tian Lingzi continued to cry, "Now, thanks to His Majesty's grace, I have finally entered Beijing. It seems that life is going to be easier, but Such a thing happened. Your Majesty, Li Jing is so ruthless, Your Majesty must be the master of this old slave."

Li Xuan didn't sleep well last night, and when he came back from a walk in the morning, Tian Lingzi dragged him into tears and complained, and he couldn't help feeling a little impatient. "If you don't provoke Li Jing first, how can Li Jing take revenge? Besides, you can't just insist that Li Jing did this right now."

"Besides Li Jing, who else could it be?"

"Without any evidence, how can you insist on it? Li Jing is also a handsome man, a dignified founding father, father, don't make any more misunderstandings." Li Yan closed the jade box with some disgust.He knew very well in his heart that besides Li Jing, who else could do such a thing.But before Tian Lingzi mobilized the Shence Army to besiege Li Jing, he told Li Jing not to pursue it.Now, Li Jing took revenge. Although he was unhappy, he couldn't accuse Li Jing.Tian Lingchong is his favorite minister.But Li Jing is also a capable minister he relies on.Although he doesn't care about political affairs, he also knows that a courtier like Li Jing still can't ask for crimes casually.

"This is the case, let's let it go. When will the grievance be repaid? You are all my humerus ministers and the pillars of the country. I hope you can live in harmony with each other." Li Yan turned around and saw Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong and Zhang Tai. The Minister of Internal Affairs arrived and immediately ended the matter. "That's the end of the matter. Father, let's go to the Chen Mansion to deal with the funeral."

"Your Majesty, this matter can't just be left alone. Li Jing is making my Chen family last forever!" Tian Lingzi didn't expect that the emperor would give such a reply, which made him very sad, really sad, tears kept flowing shed.Not only sad for the death of the Chen family, but also sad for the emperor's indifferent attitude.He felt that today's emperor's attitude towards him was not as close as before.

"I have already made a verdict." Li Xuan replied, then turned his head and said to Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong, and Zhang Tai who had just arrived, "What's the matter for you to come here in such a hurry?"

Both Ximen Sigong and Yang Fugong were born in a family of eunuchs in the palace. Their adoptive fathers both served as lieutenants of the Shence Army, envoys of the Privy Council, military envoys of the Sixth Army and Twelve Guards, and both Ximen Sigong and Yang Fugong also served as Shence Lieutenant of the army, but later Tian Lingzi came to power from a pony and suppressed them all. Therefore, they were all Tian Lingzi's opponents in the palace.

Zhang Tai stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, something is not right. Last night, all the gentlemen went to the Kaixuan barracks outside the city to express condolences to the soldiers. The town [***] commander Li Jing was assassinated by an assassin after a banquet. He is now unconscious and in a critical condition. Zhang Tai said while looking at Tian Lingzi.

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately turned his gaze to Tian Lingzi.

Tian Lingzi was also stunned when he heard that, Li Jing was stabbed and seriously injured?But I didn't send anyone to assassinate Li Jing at all, what is going on.

"Your Majesty, this really has nothing to do with this old slave." Tian Lingzi quickly explained, but unfortunately no one believed this explanation.

Li Xuan glared at Tian Lingzi angrily, this old guy is really getting more and more messy.Usually, the price is clearly marked to buy and sell rewards such as Zicifei from the imperial court.He often connives at the palace envoys buying and selling on the street, but he turns a blind eye. After all, the money he got is mostly for him to play with and spend.But right now, he has repeatedly told him not to embarrass Li Jing again, why he just doesn't listen.

"How is Li Zhenguo?" Li Xuan asked.

Zhang Tai replied: "The injury was very serious. The assassin's sword pierced under Li Zhenguo's left rib, and he missed his heart. Although the heart was not injured, the assassin's sword was smeared with poison. Li Zhenguo is still in a coma. don't wake up."

"Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" Li Xuan was also shocked.

Simon Sigong said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, apart from rescuing Li Zhenguo, there is one more important thing."

"what's up?"

Yang Fugong looked at Tian Lingzi, and there was a trace of gloating in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, Li Zhenguo was assassinated, and the assassin has already been taken down. According to the female assassin, she was originally a member of the Lijing family of the royal family, but because her family was threatened by Lieutenant Tian, ​​she was forced to obey Lieutenant Tian. This assassination, It was Lieutenant Tian who threatened her with the life of his family."

Li Xuan gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say.

"Your Majesty, this matter is now known to the triumphant soldiers outside the city. First, Li Zhenguo was besieged in Gaoling City, and now under Chang'an City, such an assassination happened again. The soldiers of the towns outside the camp were outraged. Camp is like a fire cooking oil, if you are not careful, it will be difficult to control."

The Tang Dynasty has always had no shortage of arrogant soldiers, especially since Dezong, military changes are commonplace.Today, there are 2 soldiers and horses in the eight towns and three tribes under the city of Chang'an, of which there are a full [-] soldiers and horses in the town [***].Zhen [***] was wiped out by even the powerful Shatuo soldiers just now in Hedong. If the [-] troops of Zhen [***] started a mutiny, it would be really hard to deal with.

When Li Xuan thought of the Mutiny in Jingyuan, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.There were only five thousand Jingyuan soldiers in the mutiny during Dezong's time.But because the rewards given by the emperor and Jing Zhaoyin were not generous enough when they passed by Chang'an, these arrogant soldiers turned against each other.So he beat the drums and shouted, attacked the capital, and the rebel army captured Chang'an, the capital city; Dezong fled to Fengtian in a hurry, and the emperor was surrounded by the rebel army for more than a month.

Could it be that he is also facing a political mutiny?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help shivering.Although the emperor is young, he also knows the importance of this matter.

At the moment, I was already a little anxious and asked: "What should I do about this matter?"

Ximen Sigong looked directly at Tian Lingzi: "Your Majesty, according to my opinion, the person who untied the bell had to be tied. Right now, the military camp outside the city is full of anger, and if one is not good, it may cause chaos. The origin of this incident is still because Lieutenant Tian Zhong assassinated the country's cadres again and again, which caused dissatisfaction among the soldiers. In the end, Lieutenant Tian Zhong was the cause of this matter. Right now, the soldiers are agitated, and I am afraid that even if others try to persuade them, it will not be effective I would like to ask the Holy Spirit to issue an order to let Tian Zhongwei go to the camp in person and explain the matter clearly to the soldiers of the army."

Tian Lingzi was shocked, and a cold air rose from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

No matter what happened to the assassination now, he has already seen that the old eunuchs Ximen Sigong, Yang Fugong and Zhang Tai are planning to kill with a knife.Just like what they said, in the current situation, the big camp is a group of angry soldiers. If he goes at this time, it will be like a sheep joining a pack of wolves, and there will be no return.It is estimated that as soon as he is sent to the door, he will be torn to pieces by the angry Zhen[***].

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged. It is obviously Li Jing's private revenge, and I am the queen of the Chen family. Your Majesty, please see that the old slave has served His Majesty for many years. Even if there is no credit, there is hard work." Tian Lingzi said directly He knelt down and hugged Li Xuan's thigh.

Li Xuan was a little moved by Tian Lingzi's words, after all, the relationship has been there for many years.Seeing that the situation was not good, Ximen Sigong immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, state affairs are the most important thing, and Li Tang's country and society are the most important!"

Yang Fugong and Zhang Tai also showed no mercy at this time, they all knelt down and stated their strengths to Li Xuan.

For a moment, Li Xuan stood on the spot, surrounded by four kneeling eunuch chiefs, with a cloudy expression on his face. (To be continued.)
