Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 8

Time passed by every minute and every second, and in a blink of an eye, the time for a stick of incense passed, Li Xian never spoke again, and the atmosphere in the hall was naturally solemn and suppressed, but Li Xian didn't care at all, just Because he is well aware of Li Xian's stubborn personality, it is not an easy task to persuade him, it depends on the skill and the mastery of the heat, which is the same as cooking - start the pot early, the vegetables are raw, and the pot is late If it is too hot, the dishes have to be mushy, and they have to be just right to cook delicious food. Li Xian has already considered this point before coming to Prince Lu's mansion, so he will not be anxious because of Li Xian's silence. He just sat on the side silently, sipping tea in his spare time, as if nothing happened.

Patience is something that Li Xian does not lack. When later generations became civil servants, in order to dissuade the people who sat in and protest in front of the city hall, Li Sheng, who was the director at the time, could stay with the protesters for three days and three nights without sleep. The protesters talked about "life ideals" and dragged down nearly a thousand demonstrators. Comparing patience with Li Xian at the moment is like a child's play. Seniors, how can they fight to the end with Li Xian and other monsters who are almost monsters? No, not long after a stick of incense, poor Li Xian is already panting, his not too strong chest heaves It's like pulling a bellows.

"You, what do you want to do? Well, tell, tell!" Li Xian's heart was clearly in a mess, and he slapped a few times angrily, almost angrily shouting in a roaring voice.

"Sixth brother is serious. I just want to tell some facts. In those days, the ministers (Zhu Suiliang) and the ministers (Laiji) were demoted, and no one spoke, so they died. Also, Minister Han (Han Yuan) was raped. So, no one spoke, so Han Xiang also died, and later, the elder grandson was accused again, but no one spoke, unfortunately, he died too, and now Shangguan Xiangye is also accused, and it seems that there is no escape Once he dies, whose turn will it be next, maybe it's the younger brother, and at that time, who can speak for the younger brother?" Li Xian was furious, but Li Xian was as calm as water, and his tone was flat. A large number of veterans who died due to the frame of Empress Wu.

The group of old prime ministers listed by Li Xian were demoted and killed because Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, who had just been demoted last year, were set up by Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu, but everyone knew that these old ministers were all killed by Empress Wu. People at the level of the prime minister, as for the lower middle-level officials who were killed because of Empress Wu's power, it is really appalling to count them in detail, especially when it falls on Li, who has never been liked by Empress Wu. In Xian's ears, it was like thunder, which made his complexion turn pale.

"Enough, rebellion, nonsense, you are so brave, you want to seek rebellion? I will go to the court to intervene with you!" Li Xian was furious in his heart, but he was unwilling to believe that Empress Wu would take action against him, in order to cover up Frightened in his heart, he suddenly stood up, looked at Li Xian with glaring eyes, and shouted loudly.

All of Li Xian's reactions were already in Li Xian's expectation. Seeing him making a fuss at this moment, Li Xian didn't care at all. He glanced at Li Xian indifferently, picked up the tea bowl in his hand, Slowly took a sip, and then said with a sneer: "Sixth Brother, if you want to participate, then you can participate. Let's see if the mother believes it or not."

"You... bastard, get out, get out, there is no brother like you!" Hearing Li Xian's words, Li Xian suddenly felt his anger welling up, his eyes were filled with stars, and he yelled without hesitation , The commotion was so loud that the servants outside the hall surrounded the hall one after another, but they were not allowed to be summoned by Li Xian, and no one dared to enter the hall to stir up the dispute between the two brothers.

"Haha, okay, Brother Six said so, I just leave, this door, hey, when I come back, I'm afraid I don't know what the situation will be, so leave!" Li Xian said very simply and without delay. He stood up, flicked his big sleeves, left a scene, turned his head and walked out of the hall.

One step, two steps, three or four steps, Li Xian's steps were very calm, neither fast nor slow, just like strolling in a courtyard, he had reached the screen at the entrance of the hall in a dozen steps, but he never heard When Li Xian spoke again, Li Xian's heart tightened slightly involuntarily, but since the matter had come to this point, there was no way to turn back, so he could only bite the bullet and continue walking outside.

"Wait a minute!" Just as Li Xian was about to turn around the screen, Li Xian, who had been silent all this time, finally lost his composure and raised his voice.

Hey, good boy, finally can't help it?Well, it's time for the main show!Li Xian, who was already very anxious, heard Li Xian's shout, and the big rock hanging in his heart fell to the ground, but his face remained calm, and he turned around slowly, not in a hurry to speak, just silently Looking at Li Xian intently.

"You, you, what exactly do you want to say?" Li Xian, who was uncomfortable being watched by Li Xian, twisted his body unnaturally, and asked with a restless expression.

"The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop." Li Xian said casually as he walked back to the children.

As the saying goes: You don't need to use heavy hammers to play the drums. Li Xian is naturally alert, so he can understand the unfinished meaning of Li Xian's words. His face turned completely pale, he looked at Li Xian dully for a while, and then he cupped his hands solemnly and said, "Ask Gao Ming."

Li Xian has always regarded himself very highly, and he never looked at Li Xian in the past, but at this time he saluted very formally, which shows that deep down in his heart, he regards Li Xian as a person who can talk on an equal footing. To others, it may be a great thing, but what Li Xian wants is not such a result. The reason is very simple. Li Xian is still counting on using his conceited elder brother in front of him as a shield, so he doesn't intend to At this very moment, they will fight against each other.

"Sixth brother is serious. I have been stupid since I was a child. If I can see a little bit, the onlookers will be clear. If I can help the first and second brothers, it is a great honor for my brother." Li Xian returned the gift respectfully. After being modest for a while, he turned to the topic, and said in a deep voice: "Father, a gentleman is also a gentleman, so he is not good at fighting, so that every time there are more traitors in the court, his arrogance will become more and more arrogant. If you don't stop it, what will happen to the court?" Neng Zhen, today, the elder brother of the crown prince is weak and kind-hearted. Even if he has a heart, he will hardly have the power to punish evil. My younger brother has watched the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty, and only the sixth brother can take on this important task. This is the reason why the sixth brother became a vassal .”

"so what?"

Li Xian's temperament is relatively impulsive, but he is not the kind of brainless and reckless person. He can't be easily moved by flattery words or extremely cheap aggressive methods, even if he is right now. Li Xian looked at him differently, but it didn't mean that he would follow Li Xian's baton like a puppet. Hearing that Li Xian had the intention of carrying himself out to fight Empress Wu, he immediately woke up. After being overwhelmed, he glanced at Li Xian calmly, and said in a calm tone.

"Sixth brother, do you know why the father and Xu Shizhong were arguing in the imperial study yesterday?"

Li Xianping calmed down very quickly, showing a good ability to control his mind, but Li Xian didn't take it as a surprise at all. Probably because of the memory of his previous life, Li Xian already knew what kind of person his brother was, and he knew more about Li Xian. At this moment, he was thinking about what was going on in his heart, so he would not be robbed of the initiative by Li Xian's question, so he changed the topic with a smile.

"Seventh Brother is talking about the imperial decree of amnesty. Is there something else wrong with it?"

As a person with great ambitions, Li Xian naturally has a reliable channel for news. Besides, yesterday morning, he himself had a bad fight with Xu Jingzong because of the amnesty decree. The news is naturally very sensitive, and how could they not know about the dispute between the monarch and his ministers in the Imperial Study Room yesterday afternoon, but so far, Li Xianshang can't see what is behind this imperial decree, seeing that Li Xian has changed the topic here, He couldn't help becoming suspicious, and looked at Li Xian suspiciously for a while, before hesitating to speak out.

"The reason why my father is in a hurry to sign this amnesty edict is only to save one person." As soon as Li Xian finished speaking, Li Xian immediately answered.

"Oh? There is such a thing, who is this person?" Li Xian was so sure of Li Xian's words, he was stunned for a moment, his brows frowned, and he thought carefully, but he still couldn't understand Li Xian. Who is it referring to? After pondering for a moment, he had no choice but to ask.

Li Xian's face was serious, and he said each word with a pause: "Shangguanyi!"

"What? This, this, how is this possible? Um, no, Mr. Shangguan..." Li Xian was obviously taken aback by Li Xian's words. He suddenly jumped up, exclaimed, and his complexion changed for a long time Only then did he manage to calm down, bit his lip, stared blankly at Li Xian who was sitting upright, took a deep breath and said, "Seventh Brother is really not surprising, but I don't know if Seventh Brother has evidence or not." ? You must know that this is a very important matter, and it is not something to be trifled with. Seventh Brother must not speak in vain."

evidence?How to find evidence for such things, is it possible to go to Emperor Gaozong to seek evidence?To be honest, if Li Xian didn't have the memory of the third generation, he would never be able to see through the mystery. However, facing Li Xian's questioning, Li Xian couldn't show a clumsy performance, so he sneered and said: "Evidence? If everything is based on evidence, then it will be easy to handle. The world will be appeased from then on. Don't Six Brothers think this question is a bit roundabout?"

"Seventh brother, you..." After Li Xian's rebuttal, Li Xian's face immediately became uneasy, and he tried to retort, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly didn't know where to start. , could only stop in embarrassment, and glared at Li Xian resentfully.

"It is true that without evidence, there is no way to convince the public. My brother's words are nothing but angry words. Please tell me the sixth brother Haihan. If you really want to say evidence, it is certainly not without it. I dare to bet with my brother. If there is no accident, I will be here today." It's the day when the Lord Shangguan's family will be sent to prison!" Just when Li Xian was secretly annoyed, Li Xian suddenly changed the subject and showed his hole card, which shocked Li Xian again.

"Seventh brother, seventh brother, you, alas, are you trying to be a brother, is there anything that you can't finish at once?" Li Xian was tossed and tossed by Li Xian several times in the morning. He was dizzy from the trouble, but he couldn't say anything to reprimand Li Xian, so he shook his head with a wry smile, and dismissed Li Xian's sentence. Then, without giving Li Xian a chance to explain, he waved his hand and said, "Seventh Brother What do you want? Please just say it.”

"Sixth brother sees and asks, and younger brother should tell the truth." Li Xianchang sat down on his knees, and replied solemnly: "I have not been able to write or martial arts since I was young. Out of love, I dare not be outside my elder brother. My brother has made up his mind. From tomorrow, I will invest in a pen and join the army. I will learn martial arts from my master. Now my surroundings in the Tang Dynasty are still restless. My brother should not be called Huo Guanjun Dumei In the past, he will be successful in the future, and he will be the pioneer of the elder brother, sweep the world, and consolidate my foundation of the Great Tang Dynasty!"

"Teacher? Seventh brother plans to ask who is his teacher. I'm very curious as a brother." Hearing Li Xian's impassioned words, Li Xian's curiosity was immediately aroused, and he didn't care about the previous amnesty decree. , hurriedly asked a question.

"I already have a candidate for a good teacher in my heart, but this matter still needs the permission of my father, and I will know the outcome in the future. Regardless, I came to find my brother today, not only to save Lord Shangguan's family, but also to take this opportunity to get rid of him." If the sixth brother is willing to raise his arms and give a shout, the younger brother will follow him and build this extraordinary feat together." Seeing that the fire is almost over, Li Xian is unwilling to get entangled in trivial matters any more. He cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

"Well..." Li Xian was keen to participate in the affairs of the court, so how could he not be moved by Li Xian's proposal? It's just that it's a big deal. How could Li Xian dare to accept it easily, but in front of Li Xian, who was eager to take refuge in him, he made an excuse for refusing It's not easy to speak the words casually, and after hesitating, his brows were involuntarily furrowed.

"Sixth brother, I have some shallow opinions on this matter, maybe it can be used, this matter should be..." Seeing Li Xian's behavior, Li Xian secretly smiled in his heart, he would never let go of this great opportunity to strike while the iron is hot, and smiled He got up, walked to Li Xian, leaned over to Li Xian's ear, and began to babble, hearing Li Xian's complexion changing from joy to surprise to suspicion.
