Chapter 4946 Snowy Night Conspiracy
Wu Meiniang had some doubts about Princess Gaoyang's judgment: "Even if His Highness Jinyang is in love with the husband, the husband may not be happy to accept it, right? After all, if that is the case, it is really disrespectful to the world, and it has a great influence on the relationship between the husband and your majesty. Big damage.”
In the age of kingship, the rule of man is greater than the rule of law, and "holy relatives" are unparalleled political resources. When there are no meritorious achievements to compare with them, is it wise to sacrifice so much for a woman?
She felt that her husband was not that stupid.
Princess Gao Yang sighed: "You still don't understand Lang Jun's character. He has risen to great power over the years, so you think he is a qualified politician, but you are totally wrong. The reason why he is today, It is more about taking advantage of the situation and following the general trend, so as to In his true nature, he will not rack his brains to pursue these things. On the contrary, he attaches great importance to feelings. As long as Jinyang cries in front of Langjun and says, "I will not marry you," you will believe it or not. Are you going to the palace immediately to ask for a marriage? ”
Jin Shengman was listening to the excitement and couldn't help but clapped his hands with admiration: "This is a good man with love and justice!"
"Don't make trouble with me!"
Wu Meiniang scolded her, saying that this Silla princess was naive and had no intentions, which was really a headache.
"Now it seems that Jinyang has no intention of forcing Lang Jun to marry her?"
"That's what makes it even more dangerous!" Princess Gaoyang said with a sad look on her face: "Mr. Lang is a soft-spoken person who prefers the soft to the tough. The more Jinyang behaves like, 'I'm thinking about my brother-in-law so as not to embarrass my brother-in-law,' the more likely the Ling Jun will be." The more you become soft-hearted, the more you continue to do this.”
Wu Meiniang didn't know what to say. Her husband's temper was really like that. You clamored to hang yourself, but he might not pay attention to you. Your pitiful, gentle and graceful words of "I would rather suffer than think about you", probably... Then it fell.
"The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it with the soil."
Wu Meiniang, who always prided herself on being resourceful and resourceful, was at her wits' end.
You must not take the initiative to attack Princess Jinyang, otherwise it may be counterproductive. Once the rebellious psychology of the husband is aroused, things will become worse...
*****
At night, the brothels and Chu pavilions in Pingkangfang are brightly lit, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras is endless, and gorgeously decorated carriages come and go, and the traffic is busy and prosperous.
In an inconspicuous brothel, Li Wenqian sat by the window, pouring and drinking. Snowflakes outside the window were flying like dancing butterflies under the lanterns. The sound of wind instruments coming from other buildings was faint, The artistic conception is leisurely and the atmosphere is elegant.
When there were three soft knocks at the door, Li Wenjing immediately stood up and covered the window to block the sight of outsiders that might peek in. Then he came to the door and opened it, and Li Sixing, dressed in regular clothes, stepped in.
Li Wenjing went out and looked around, and saw that there was no one else in the corridor. Then he turned around and closed the door, and invited Li Sixing to come to the table and sit down together.
Although the two people's names differed only by one word, which was a coincidence, they also added a connection and got along very well.
Li Wenzhen poured tea with his own hands and placed it in front of Li Sixian, and asked in a low voice: "What did your brother say?"
Li Sixian, perhaps a little nervous, grabbed the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, and then said: "Everything is ready and ready to go!"
"Okay!"
Li Wenzhen looked excited, clasped his hands and praised: "Brother Ling is indeed a rare talent. Under such tight surveillance by the 'Baiqisi', he can still make arrangements without anyone noticing. As long as he achieves great things, he should be the first to take the lead!" ”
Li Sicheng calmed down and mused: "There are no absolutes in anything in this world. You must not slack off until you achieve something. Although all my dead men have lurked in the East Palace, the number is too small after all. Once activated, who will I don’t know how many imperial guards in the East Palace will defect and how many will fight to protect the prince. The outcome is still unknown.”
Even though Li Anyan had been in charge of the defense of the East Palace for many years, the entire East Palace guards were nominally under his command. They usually obeyed his orders and showed loyalty, but when Li Anyan led the dead soldiers to storm Li Zhengdian. At this time, the position of the imperial guard cannot be inferred from his usual performance.
After all, His Majesty Li Er's prestige was profound, and Yu Ze benefited Li Chengqian. The imperial guards may not be loyal to Li Chengqian, but most of them were loyal to His Majesty Li Er's son.
His Majesty Li Er left his son an iron-clad empire.
Therefore, in fact, the promise he made to his brother Li Anyan was simply nonsense. The throne of the Tang Dynasty could only be occupied by the son of His Majesty Li Er. To overthrow Li Chengqian, it must be one of the other princes.
Li Anyan's desire to avenge Li Jiancheng is just wishful thinking...
Li Wenjun nodded in agreement: "My father often said, 'Everything depends on people, and everything depends on God.' Luck is often the key to success or failure. But in my opinion, even if the imperial guard of the East Palace turns against General Li and obstructs General Li, General Li With his ability, Li Zhengdian will definitely be captured.”
This is a mutiny, not a rebellion, so the throne must be passed down in an orderly manner. When Li Chengqian dies, he can force the prince to sign the edict on the throne as the crown prince. Only then can he be justified and recognized by the people of the world, otherwise it will only be usurping power. , has been infamous throughout the ages, and everyone has it and punishes it.
Who else dares to sit on the throne?
Li Sixian said: "But even if things go smoothly in the East Palace, how will the prince lead the clan into Tai Chi Palace to take charge of the overall situation?"
Wang Fangyi, the guard of Xuanwu Gate, was a general under Fang Jun, and there was no way he could be bribed by Li Shenfu. The imperial guards guarding Chengtian Gate were even more close to the emperor.
Li Wenzhen smiled and said: "Of course we enter from the East Palace. If my brother can hide the dead men in the East Palace in advance, he will definitely be able to control the Xuande Gate to allow my father to enter. When the time comes, the matter will be determined. Xian Kunzhong will be the most important."
Li Sicheng was stunned for a moment, and then he understood Li Sicheng's plan. He must have wanted to imitate the previous story of Jin Famin. After entering the East Palace, he broke into the Taichi Palace through the wall behind the Chongwen Pavilion and went straight to the Wude Palace.
He hurriedly said: "Absolutely not! Because Jin Famin suddenly entered from the East Palace and cut off the flank of the rebels, which indirectly led to their defeat and even caused Li Daozong's death, His Majesty is extremely concerned about this path. Now there is a team of imperial guards stationed there all year round. Within the arsenal between the Wude Hall and the east wall! ”
Do you really think His Majesty is a fool? Such a conspicuous path can directly threaten the safety of Taiji Palace from the East Palace, so naturally this loophole must be blocked.
Li Wenzhen was full of confidence: "Don't worry, dear brother, my father has already planned this."
Li Sixian knew that the imperial guard stationed in the arsenal must have been bribed by Li Shenfu in advance...
But in this case, the two brothers contributed the most during the entire mutiny, and the previously negotiated conditions had to be changed.
After pondering for a long time, Li Sixian felt confused: "My brother is required to lead troops to capture Li Zheng Palace, and also to assist the prince to capture Tai Chi Palace... My brother is obliged to do so, but after all, it is too difficult. If there is any failure, something will happen. Accident, that would be a big deal.”
Li Wenzhen secretly scolded the other party for sitting on the ground and raising the price, and said in a deep voice: "My father will never treat Xian Kunzhong badly. After the matter is completed, Xian brother will choose one of the five ministers except the official department, and your brother will be in charge of one of the left and right Jinwu guards." , maintain the imperial power and guard the country! ”
These two brothers seem to be smart but are actually stupid. Now, no matter what conditions they put forward, they can be agreed to, but when the thing is done, how can they be rewarded and where will their brothers be able to question and argue?
Whatever is given to you, you can only accept it gratefully, otherwise the "initiation" of the mutiny will be pushed on the heads of your two brothers, and you will be infamy for thousands of years...
Li Sixian nodded and asked in a low voice: "I wonder who the prince will choose to ascend the throne?"
Li Wenzhen glanced at him, with a stern expression on his face, and warned: "This is such a big matter, why do you need to pay attention to it? As long as you try your best to complete your tasks, your gains in the future will be far more than expected. It's better not to care about things that you shouldn't care about." Otherwise, if a little information is leaked, it will lead to failure, and Xian Kunzhong will never redeem himself.”
Li Sixian was a little embarrassed and dissatisfied. My two brothers worked so hard and braved the world's disapproval, but they could not gain Li Shenfu's absolute trust. This made his originally full of longing mood cast a haze.
Shouldn't he be dismissed and killed?
However, even if he gave up this idea, after all, Li Shenfu was the first to bear the brunt of this matter anyway, and there was no possibility of anyone else taking his place. Moreover, the two brothers controlled the East Palace and Taiji Palace, so Li Shenfu did not dare to take the blame. .
"Haha, I'm just concerned. After all, there was a precedent for King Wei to reprimand Changsun Wuji before. If things go wrong, it will not be beautiful."
Li Sixian smiled and stabbed him in a nonchalant way.
Li Wenzhen smiled deeply: "Don't worry, dear brother, this matter is foolproof."
Li Sixian didn't want to think too much. After all, the two of them met in private and took great risks. If someone discovered that they were colluding with each other, it would most likely arouse Li Chengqian's suspicion.
"In that case, I'll take my leave for now."
In addition to communicating to ensure the smooth flow of information between each other, he also wanted to determine the benefits afterwards. Since he had Li Wenzhen's promise, there was no need to wait any longer.
Li Wenzhen stood up and said to each other: "A great cause is waiting to be accomplished. You and I, brothers, should work hard and move forward bravely. In the future, we will make great achievements for a long time. We should raise a toast to celebrate with His Highness Tai Chi!"
Li Sixian was also enthusiastic and heroic: "Even if the incident fails, I should write a colorful stroke on the history of history. Under the fountain, I will have no regrets!"
The greater the benefit, the greater the natural risk. If you want to seek an opportunity to reach the sky in one step, you can only bear the risk of destruction at every turn. There is nothing to say about success and failure. It's just that things in the world are never absolute. Success will naturally come with failure. Success is gratifying, but failure does not need to be depressing.
Li Wenzhen's face froze, and he felt unhappy. How could he say such depressing words at this critical moment when his fate was at stake? Unlucky.
