Four Nights Red House

Chapter 161 Expansion

But Zheng'er didn't hesitate for too long, and with her eyes facing each other, she said firmly, "Do you still remember that when you were in Fangzhou, you hugged your concubine passionately on a moonlit night and treated your concubine affectionately?" Those fiery vows made by my concubine?" Although her voice was soft, the deep accumulation of precipitation inside echoed her fierceness, so that no one could easily ignore such fiery and charcoal-swallowing fierceness at will.

"Remember, how can you not remember!" In this way, Wei Zheng's emotions were easily infected.He suddenly felt that his whole body seemed to be on fire, and he raised his hand to hold Zheng'er's slightly cool jade hands. He fixed his eyes on her tough and affectionate brows and corners of her eyes, and was already emotional inside, "I said, once in the future May there be a day when she turns around, and the queen will live the best life, and let the queen live in the world as she pleases without any restrictions!"

That was the hardest, most difficult, but also the toughest and most beautiful period of time between them!The stars of Fangzhou, the moon of Fangzhou, the past that Fangzhou does not want to erase but cannot erase, and the fiery vows he made when he embraced her in Fangzhou, one after another, full of longing, and true emotion!

He remembered, of course he would.And he will not forget, and he will definitely fulfill it!

Miao Miao Qingfeng filled the open and somewhat flashy surroundings, and the candlelight danced, and the lingering shadow suddenly rushed into her bright and rich eyes.

Wei Zheng looked at her husband steadfastly, and a ray of tenacity and perseverance was outlined between the opening and closing of the sandalwood lips dyed with incense: "Does this vow still count now?" The question was straightforward and simple, without sloppy words .

Xian's hands that were holding Zheng'er suddenly tightened again, and when he looked at her with deep eyes, his starry eyes were full of no doubt: "Of course it counts!" Such a simple reply, four words are powerful. .

From the fingertips came the moist temperature, and the scorching warmth burned the messy and fluttering heart along the paste.With ten fingers connected to her heart, Wei Zheng's heart was like a waterfall, and she always understood rationally what she wanted: "Your Majesty can trust me?" She fixed his eyes, and the eyes did not leave.

"Of course!" The two words were cut off, and there was another sentence like this.At this moment, his eyes met hers, he kept silent, calmed down his mind, and began to seriously want to see some inner scheming from the depths of her eyes, it seemed very natural all of a sudden, he suddenly understood what she meant ...

Yes, there is no one who can be used, only that there is no one who can be used, but I don't know that the person who is available is by my side!

The situation that Zhongzong Li Xian is facing today is actually very similar to the situation that Gaozong Li Zhi was facing back then!Think back to when Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi came to the throne in the early years of Yonghui, what he faced at that time was such a big situation where the ruler was weak and the ministers were strong, and in the early years of Yonghui, most of the courts were controlled by powerful officials, so that all officials were silent when they came to court Don't dare to make trouble.How did Li Zhi act at that time?

Yes, Gaozong insisted on pushing his empress Wu to the rear with the greatest courage and almost fanatical persistence.This move seems to be only aimed at Empress Wu alone. In fact, the reason why Gaozong was uncompromising and persistent was not all because of his love for Empress Wu!

For Gaozong, abolishing the king and establishing a military means taking back the real power as an emperor and showing it to his courtiers in a truly tough manner. It is nothing more than a silent and invisible shock!After that, Gaozong allowed Empress Wu to listen to the government behind the curtain, and continued to strengthen Empress Wu's real power in the future, and even after many years, Gaozong and Empress Wu were called the Empress and the Two Saints...

Today, Li Xian has no choice but to follow the old path that his father had walked. Since he has no confidant to support, then he will go to strengthen the power of his queen!

Just like Gaozong did to Empress Wu, he let Empress Wei listen to politics behind the curtain and participate in court affairs.The queen and I are one body, the strengthening of the queen's power means that his own power is also strengthening!

And Wei Zheng calmly brought up the past to Li Xian, and asked Li Xian if he believed her, which was just reminding him of his behavior...

Just as Empress Wu could climb to the top of politics step by step and eventually become emperor, Empress Wei's rise also benefited from the current situation and inexplicable luck!

Li Xian is not a fool, he is so thoughtful and has his own way of planning.

While strengthening the Queen's power, he also promoted a bunch of bureaucrats in the Prince's Mansion when he was in Chang'an. Even if they are scattered, they can still choose one or two.And he selected alchemists, warlocks, and eminent monks and mages, listened to memorials, and allowed them to participate in politics.

He is completely imitating the methods used by Emperor Gaozong and Empress Wu, strengthening his wife's rights, gathering scattered old minions and dissatisfied people, and looking for the miracle of destiny from alchemists, warlocks, monks and mages, and trying to control the people from the mind!

And while this step-by-step process was being carried out steadily, he and Empress Wei began to take continuous measures, acting solemnly and affirming the old achievements of his mother Wuhuang in a large space, showing filial piety when looking for opportunities to change, and downplaying Shenlongzheng. Change……

Where there are people, there must be scheming, and the place of the imperial palace, the inside and outside of the royal family and officials, happens to be the place where planning and scheming are the strongest in all dynasties!

Even though the Wu Zhou Dynasty, which was cut off in the middle, is crossed, even if the Emperor Wu has passed away, and the actual control of this beautiful empire has returned to the hands of the Li royal family, those who cannot escape are always determined by fate.

Bloodline is the original sin, an invisible bond that has been tied to this struggle for power since birth!Conspiracies and calculations and struggles for power have never been far away, the only difference is a different situation, some personnel, that's all!

.

The incense in the incense cauldron on one side is burning well, and the curling clouds and mist weave a large hazy field of vision.The tea smoke in the cup is also curling up, and in the illusory atmosphere of puffing up clouds and mist, Longji dropped the white piece he was holding on to.

There was a crisp sound of "Ding", like the broken flowers of a waterfall falling from mid-air and hitting a rock, and it was clear to the ears for a moment, and it was really sweet and tight, "Why, it didn't fall for a long time?" He asked.

Taiping green onion pinched a black jade chess piece in his hand, only looked up at Longji, heard his question, and was not in a hurry to make a move: "Because although you are playing chess with me, you are clearly absent-minded and perfunctory. It's better not to play." After she finished speaking, she simply put down the chess piece in her hand, lifted the catkin, and suddenly "crashed" the chessboard in front of her.

This move is so surly!Longji hooked his lips, looked at her and smiled brightly: "You are obviously as absent-minded as me, so you come to talk about me first?"

When he looked up, Taiping also had a smile on his face: "Since we don't have the intention to play chess, why bother to perfunctory each other!"

The two had been open and honest so far, she lowered her soft eyes after speaking, called the maid to clean up the chess game, and then ordered all the people in the house to retreat.

All of a sudden, only Taiping and Longji were left in the room. With the spring shining like a thread, she stared at him with a fixed gaze, and a trace of ripples melted on her lotus-like face: "Now we can say, why did you come to see me?" .” Not a question, needless to say.

Longji was not surprised by Taiping's attitude. Hearing her like this, he was not in a hurry to reply: "Don't you know?" Instead, he asked back.

Yes, why did he come to find her? How could she not know?Nowadays, his father Li Dan and Taiping are actually grasshoppers tied together, and Li Longji, Wan'er, etc., can be said to be people who are really on the same boat, and they must understand the movements of Zhongzong. .

Sure enough, Taiping understood, so he didn't force Longji to insist on saying it first, he just raised his eyes and smiled at him, without saying a word, the suspicion was already tacit.

Taiping and Longji saw Li Xian's intentions. Which one of the major things that Li Xian did after he became the throne didn't seem like deja vu?They also all came from the era of Emperor Wu, especially Li Dan, who also had a good understanding of the rules and regulations of Gaozong's period, so how can they not see that Li Xian's move is clearly imitating Gaozong and Emperor Wu?Now that I understand it, then it goes without saying what the real intention and inner meaning of this action are!

As the son of Li Dan, Li Longji, the king of Linzi, never gave up thinking about Li Dan from the beginning to the end. After any unusual troubles, he is often the first to act than his father!He wholeheartedly plans for his father, and his ambition goes far beyond becoming the son of An Guoxiang Wang...

And the same situation they are facing now is not just a matter of so-called ambition!Zhongzong's actions are clearly aimed at suppressing Li Dan and Taiping. If they don't take any measures to deal with it, then they will see the emperor's foundation and power growing stronger and wider. The result of waiting for them is only a word of "death"!

"Then, after all, he is the monarch of the Tang Dynasty!" After a moment of silence, Taiping nodded and glanced at the tea soup in the cup inadvertently, the sentence he uttered was a little helpless and confused.It could be seen that she was also struggling in her heart.

"So what?" Longji curled his lips into a smile, but his expression did not change too much.

At this moment, Taiping raised his eyes again, and through the light smoke and light curtain, he saw Longji's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, showing unruly and disdainful expression.Her heart sank, yes, so what, if it is because Li Xian is the emperor of the current empire, and she is tied down, then those plots and the fiery scheming that have been going on all these years all the time Calculations really don't need to be busy!But they didn't, they were still calculating their calculations and laying out the appropriate layout.So obviously, they did not have physical and mental constraints because of the status of an emperor and the limitations of a monarch and his ministers.

"You should already have a countermeasure in your heart, don't you?" Taiping faced Longji's frankness, and suddenly felt guilty for his hypocrisy.She is not like him who dares to admit the desire in her heart, or in other words, she is always good at whitewashing peace as her name suggests.

Longji nodded, his star-like gaze could pierce through the thick haze, so as to explore the depths of his heart all the way...

He has an idea, and without Taiping, this idea is absolutely impossible.

He knows that Taiping's power is rising day by day and its foundation is getting deeper and deeper. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has made great achievements and is incomparably rich!Because he knew his father Li Dan very well, what Taiping had was exactly the same as Li Dan he was facing.

So he instigated Taiping to help, and asked Taiping to send his subordinates to go around in circles to confront Zhongzong Li Xian tit for tat!What kind of policy the emperor pursues, he will make a decision that runs counter to those policies; what kind of policy the emperor advocates, he will strongly oppose it, and he will never follow its promulgation and implementation!

It's just that Taiping's current situation is no different from that of Li Dan. She is the first dazzling star on the political stage of the Tang Dynasty. She also needs to be on guard. It is not enough to pretend to be an ostrich and keep a low profile. To blatantly contradict the emperor?

So even though she understood Longji's intentions, she didn't say anything.It's just that she is determined not to just sit idly by and take no action. After all, she has been involved in it from the very beginning, and she cannot escape.

"I know your concerns." Longji suddenly opened his mouth again, when Taiping was startled suddenly, he continued with lowered eyes and calm voice, "But, I still need your help."

A curtain of quiet wind passed through the hall, and the tea soup that was clearly cold in the teaser was stirred up again, and it seemed to be still boiling at a glance...
