Chapter 348

The emperor was in a coma when he was in an emergency; the emperor's son-in-law was in disorder in the back palace, and his life and death were uncertain; the prime minister Fang Xuanling also fell into a coma when he had an old illness and lay on the side of the emperor's bed.

The imperial court of the Tang Dynasty is in chaos.

Chang'an, chaos.

Only Li Yuanchang was very excited when he heard the news. However, his house may not be really peaceful.

On this day, I had enough to eat and drink, and I was about to call the twin sisters who were about to pass by to serve me. There was no one in my family. At the beginning, he didn't see his intention. He thought that maybe they had gone out of the mansion for fun, or had something to do with going back to Qinxian Pavilion. But when I woke up in the middle of the night, there was still no one. At this time, the wine also woke up, Li Yuanchang could not help but raise a trace of vigilance.

So he ran to his most concerned about the secret room, a look, end!

It's lost!

Immediately, Li Yuanchang's first reaction was to rush into the east palace!

The prince, Li Chengqian, is still in bed. Seeing that Li Yuanchang broke in, he was shocked and said, "what's the matter with Uncle Huang?"

"There's something wrong with it!" Li Yuanchang is out of breath and his hair is going to be scattered.

"You know what's wrong?" Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and said, "you killed him this time!"

Li Yuanchang was stunned: "the prince already knows?"

"All the people in the city know, can I not?" Li Chengqian said, "look what you've done, it's so earth shaking! Kill that Qin mubai with a knife, and the result is just that. You have to involve the Hougong and the two concubines of the former Emperor. Now, my father was so angry that he couldn't get up. Even Fang Xuanling passed out! Have you ever thought about how many people want to abolish my prince? How many days can I live without my father and Fang Xuanling's support? "

Li Yuanchang turned his eyes and didn't dare to say what he said.

Li Chengqian was angry for a while. He looked up and down at Li Yuanchang and frowned: "you haven't said what happened?"

Li Yuanchang opened his mouth and said nothing.

"Say it! What time is it Li Chengqian said angrily.

"That thing I lost it Li Yuanchang clenched his teeth and burst out this sentence.

"What is it?" Li Chengqian didn't respond for a moment.

Li Yuanchang slapped his hands anxiously: "the imperial edict of the late emperor!"

"Ah? Ah, ah Li Chengqian immediately stared at Li Yuanchang like a bell. Murmur a way, "when, where, how to lose?"

"I don't know..." Li Yuanchang whitewashed his face and shook his head blankly, "but I doubt..."

"What a suspicion! If you lose it, you can't get it back. It's obvious that someone deliberately stole it! " Li Chengqian cried out heartbroken and almost fell to the ground.

Li Yuanchang quickly helped him to sit down and poured tea for him.

Li Chengqian trembled all over, took the cup of tea, did not drink a mouthful, his eyes stay straight way: "how to do? What should I do? The last amulet is gone

"Don't worry, Prince. Isn't that why I'm here to discuss with you?" Li Yuanchang said.

"What else can we discuss? If this thing falls into the hands of my father, I will... " Li Chengqian covered his face with both hands and rubbed it hard. He said in despair. "Although I never know why the imperial edict of the late emperor had such a strong binding force on my father, but A little is better than nothing

Li Yuanchang's eyebrows were locked and he thought for a while. He snorted: "it must be the twin bitches!"

"You mean the Taiwan sisters?" Li Chengqian immediately yelled, "I have said that there is something wrong with the sisters! They appear peacefully, and they are born in Qinxian Pavilion. Can they be clean? It may be someone sent by Qin mubai! "

"But But Xiao Wang observed them for a long time, and they didn't show any interest in Xiao Wang! On the contrary, he tried to shirk responsibility from Xiao Wang. How could he be Qin mubai's person? Xiao Wang tried his best to get them into the house. Just about to enjoy it, how can such a thing happen? " Li Yuanchang called the way of regret.

"It's hard to get. You look down on Qin. He has found out your pulse and spleen, and has given you the right medicine. " Li Chengqian patted his thigh and cried bitterly, "it's over, it's over! From the beginning, you were calculated by the surname Qin. In this way, it's already a huge trap. We just need to drill! What should we do now? The imperial edict has been lost. My father and Fang Xuanling fell ill together. There must be some action on the fourth side. We should take this opportunity to kill me and seize the east palace! In the early days of the dynasty today, many ministers gathered to discuss that during the period when his father was seriously ill, the state could not be without a monarch, and that it was necessary to recommend a prince to supervise the state. At least more than half of the people support Lao Si! "

"Prince, what are you panicking about! If your majesty does not abolish you for one day, you will be the prince for one day! If you want to supervise the state, you can't turn him to the king of Wei! " Li Yuanchang snorted coldly, "now the emperor and Fang Xuanling are seriously ill, and there is no master in the court. It's his chance to be the king of Wei. Why isn't it your chance to be the prince?"

Li Chengqian was stunned: "what's the chance?"

"Take this opportunity to overthrow the king of Wei and stabilize the east palace!" Li Yuanchang steals a voice to say, "Fang Xuanling has fallen down, it is changsun Wuji who is in charge of the court. There was no communication inside or outside the emperor's side, only Chu suiliang was near the sickbed. Chang sun Wuji is a stubborn old man and may not be very easy to fight for. But how to say you are also his nephew, he and old four have always been at odds. In case of a dispute, I think he's still mostly towards you. Now, as long as Chu suiliang is won over, great things can be achieved! ""What's the big deal? How to do it? " Li Chengqian asked.

"Don't worry." Li Yuanchang's eyes wandered and thought for a while, and said, "as the saying goes, it's better to start first. Since I've even cleaned up Qin mubai's tricky role, are you still afraid of him? Let's do the same thing again and give old four a charge of conspiracy. Although there are many people in the court who support Lao Si, how many people dare to stand up for him in the face of such a big event? Chang sun Wuji didn't like Lao Si, so he would push the boat with the current. In the past, the emperor had a pair of eyes like a torch. Now, the emperor is seriously ill. Isn't it a good chance for us to get rid of the fourth elder

"You, you come again?" Li Chengqian sifted up the chaff all over his body and pointed to Li Yuanchang. "Seventh uncle, in order to repay Qin mubai, you killed the first emperor, the second imperial concubine and several eunuchs. It's just that. The life of his younger sister Gao Yang is ruined, and the Qin family is ruined. Now, the life and death of his father and Fang Xuanling are uncertain! You have to do it! This move is more dangerous than against Qin mubai. If it's not good, my whole East Palace will be overturned! "

"Prince, when is it? You are still thinking about the consequences?" Li Yuanchang grabbed Li Chengqian and exclaimed, "if the imperial edict is lost, it's hard to say who ordered that bitch. It's even more likely that the thing will fall into who's hands. If we return to the emperor's hands, we will lose control over him. He will think of all kinds of things in the past, new and old. Can you resist them? It is well known that your majesty wants to abolish the crown prince. The reason why we haven't started all the time is that we have taken into account the wishes of the late empress Chang sun, Fang Xuanling's hard advice and the constraints of popular ideas, and we have this imperial edict in our hands? Now, none of the three will exist. Are you dead? "

Li Chengqian looked at Li Yuanchang blankly and murmured, "I always want to know what kind of imperial edict has such binding power on my father? When, where and how did you get it? "

"Well, what's the use of saying that now?"

"I want to know."

"Well..." Li Yuanchang sighed and said, "a few years ago, I was living in the palace of the imperial city to accompany the former Emperor. One day, after getting drunk, the emperor suddenly burst into tears and said something about Xuanwu Gate a few years ago... "

"Xuanwu Gate?"

"Everyone knows this, so I don't have to repeat it." Li Yuanchang said, "in fact, before the Xuanwumen incident, the former Emperor had already drawn up an imperial edict and prepared to issue it. But before it was promulgated, the Xuanwumen incident, my father's mutiny, and the imperial edict became empty words. "

"It's a piece of empty talk. How can we restrain it?" Li Chengqian was puzzled.

"You are wrong. In our opinion, it's a piece of empty talk, but in the emperor's opinion, it's to tie him to the rack of punishment for disobedience and disrespect Li Yuanchang said, "when your father ascended the throne, the former emperor issued an imperial edict to change your father to the crown prince. It wasn't long before he issued an imperial edict to abdicate the throne. In this way, your father just barely ascended the throne. Over the years, Xuanwu Gate has always been the forbidden area of the emperor's mind, and no one dare to mention it in front of him. One of the important reasons is not that his brother's blood is flowing there, but that there is a hidden danger that his title is not right. The emperor. What's the most important thing? Of course, it's just that the name is right. Only in this way can people feel what they want. Otherwise, no matter how wise and wise he is, he will not escape the censure and criticism of the Qing Shi Dan Shu and later generations. "

"It's like this..." Li Chengqian nodded blankly and said, "but After all these years, is it necessary for my father to care so much? "

"Of course. It's not only necessary, but also necessary Li Yuanchang said, "first of all, the Tang Dynasty ruled by filial piety. The emperor set an example and treated the former Emperor well. As soon as this edict comes out, he will become a thoroughly unfilial person. What else can he set an example for? Does it not make the world scold whip lazy? First, you and the king of Wei are fighting for the eastern palace, and the emperor vaguely thinks of himself. If we turn over the old account at this time, he is still an unjust military conspirator to ascend the throne and win the throne. Can he not be afraid that you sons will follow suit? What face does he have to accuse you of? It's not because the upper beam is not right, the lower beam is crooked, and the father does what the son does? At that time, all the crimes will be on his head. Third, it is also the most important. Now, the older the emperor is, the more he cares about the comments of the blue history books and unofficial history anecdotes. He even interferes with Chu suiliang, the living man who records his words and deeds, and the Historiographer who compiles history in the palace, especially the compilation of Xuanwumen. Tell me, if this edict is made public... "

"OK, don't talk about me. I see." Li Chengqian repeatedly waved his hand, nodded and said, "did the imperial edict punish my father and support the crown prince of Qi?"

Li Yuanchang didn't speak. Instead, he turned his back and said for a while, "you don't need to ask about these. The former Emperor has gone, the imperial edict has been lost, and there is no evidence for it. "

"Are you afraid that disaster will come out of your mouth, or is there no such imperial edict in the world? You made it up from the beginning?" Li Chengqian suddenly roared hysterically.

"Now, what's the use of just talking nonsense?" Li Yuanchang suddenly turned around and glared at Li Chengqian, "prince, can you not be so soft? You have been forced by old four again and again, step by step back, and even today you can't avoid it. Are you ready to let old four succeed? I'll get rid of Qin mubai. Half for personal grievances, the other half, not for you? ""For me? That's very nice of you Li Chengqian hummed coldly.

"Listen Li Yuanchang said coldly, "after his trip from Xiangzhou, did Qin mubai resent you very much, and didn't want to stand in your camp?"

"He didn't stand on the fourth side, either!" Li Chengqian argued.

"Above the court, it's either a friend or an enemy! Qin Mu Bai's ambiguous attitude and unclear position are even more dangerous! No one knows when he will suddenly stab you, and you are really finished! " Li Yuanchang said, "everyone knows that he and Li Ke are close friends. Today, although Li Ke is in Koguryo, he is still young. As long as Qin mubai and Princess Gaoyang get married successfully, and then return to Lanzhou to support half of the Tang Dynasty, he will be able to become a military chieftain with equal strength to Li Ji. Li Ji is tactful and sophisticated, and he never shows his support for any prince. However, Qin mubai and Li Ji have personal relations. They are both military leaders, and they both go out to defend themselves. Can they not form a regiment? At that time, Qin mubai's attitude is bound to affect Li Ji's position. At that time, my prince! Even if you sit in the east palace or even become emperor, can you control Qin mubai and Li Ji? Even if you kill Lao Si, who is an opponent of literature, can you deal with Li Ke, the king of Wu, who has made great contributions both in literature and in martial arts? "

Li Chengqian was petrified and stupefied.

"Your Highness. Do you know why you are so defeated? Is too weak, too short-sighted Li Yuanchang is powerful and unforgiving. He thundered, "in political games, there are no eternal opponents or enemies, only eternal interests! As early as the beginning, I strongly suggested that you should tie changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling firmly to your side. It's good of you to have a quarrel with your own uncle. But for Fang Xuanling's gratitude and loyalty to the late empress Chang sun, she would have left you. Later, I asked you to unite with the king of Wu to deal with the king of Wei, and the weak to unite against the strong. This is the art of war. Originally. In the case of Jiangzhou, Qin mubai secretly helped you. Even if he didn't like you, he didn't mean any harm! But what about you? Xiangzhou party, your behavior is not thrifty, arrogant and immoral, let Qin mubai and Li Ke to your great disappointment! Prince, Prince, up to now, you have the face to blame Xiao Wang for his poor work! Have you ever thought about your gains and losses? "

"Shut up Li Chengqian was both shy and angry. He jumped to his feet and scolded, "you'll just give some bad ideas. When did you come up with some really useful strategies? If you don't know anything else, you broke into Qin mubai's mansion, intending to do something wrong to his Yimei Yaoer. As a result, you were caught by Qin mubai and beaten like a pig. What do you say? If it wasn't for this. How can Qin mubai break with you and my east palace? "

"Well, well, we don't have to talk about the past. Now we can't fight back in the nest. We have to think of a complete solution first! " Li Yuanchang knew that he was wrong, but he quickly changed the topic and said, "in a word, things have happened. Now we have to do two things: one is not to do it, the other is to kill Qin mubai completely; the other is to take the opportunity to bring down the old four and cook for a raw rice. It's better for you to become emperor! "

"Bullshit Li Chengqian said angrily, "my father is still alive but very ill. How can I ascend the throne?"

"Back then. The former Emperor Wude lived in the back palace for several years? What's more, your majesty is now in bed and in a coma? " With a cold smile, Li Yuanchang said, "Your Highness, if you had half the ingenuity and determination of your father and emperor, you would not have today. For the major event, the heart must be ruthless, the hand must be hot, the movement must be fast! Otherwise, you will suffer. Now, you don't do it. Old four will do it; if you don't protect yourself, there are many people who want to kill you. It's up to you to choose between death and life, and I won't say much more. "

Li Chengqian slumped down on the chair, his eyes straight.

"Why, why on earth, do you have to force me like this Seventh uncle, do I really have no choice? "

"Yes." Li Yuanchang gently picked the corner of his mouth. On his originally handsome face, a trace of evil that was close to a demon appeared. "Kill me, take my head to see your father, and put everything on my head. In this way, you may be able to survive for a few days. But, as we all know, you and I have always been in the same boat. Whatever I do, I have your share. Now, in order to protect yourself, you kill me first and sell me out This virtue alone is enough to make the world despise you. At that time, not to mention the emperor, even people in the world will not recognize you as a shallow and ungrateful prince. "

"You You're pushing me, too! " Li Chengqian covered his face with his hands and cried out.

"Prince! If you don't do it for yourself, heaven will destroy the earth. I'm being honest with you, because I don't want to die! " All of a sudden, Li Yuanchang said in a loud voice, "it's time to break up, but it's time to be disturbed! Do it! No matter how strong the fourth is, he will be a scholar after all! I'll take care of how to plant his rebellion! All you have to do is to find a way to control Chu suiliang and completely isolate the emperor from the outside world, so as to facilitate our actions. At that time, as soon as the case of the Wei King's rebellion broke out, we would go up to the court to cut off the chaos and nail the Wei king to death on the ground that the emperor fainted and could not serve as director. Then, you can be the director of the eunuch. Without Laosi, the great enemy, and without Qin mubai in Koguryo, what else can li ke worry about? In addition, at the age of just a few years, the king of Jin, who had no independent ideas and was cowardly in nature, was not a threat to you. Prince, if this is done, your eastern palace will be as solid as iron, and no one can shake it. At that time, even if the emperor is sober, he has no choice but to take care of you, the crown prince. Well, all great things can be done! "Li Chengqian closed his eyes and listened. There was no movement after listening.

Li Yuanchang was not in a hurry, leaving him a room for thinking.

After a long time, Li Chengqian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, licked his dry lips, and said hoarsely, "as you said, after pulling down Lao Si and killing Qin mubai, do you want me to force the palace to accept Zen like my father, or even kill my father?"

"Prince Ren, Xiao and Huai de will definitely not do such a thing."

"But you must be able to do it!" Li Chengqian jumped up, glared at Li Yuanchang and trembled.

"Your Highness, at this moment. What else do you want to do? The scene is that if you don't help yourself, you will die. After the event, how do you kneel down to ask your father's forgiveness. I know that the poisonous tiger does not eat its son. Your father will forgive you. Isn't it? " Li Yuanchang was not angry, but patiently advised.

"Ah! ——”Li Chengqian yelled and sighed several times. He sat down dejectedly, "do I have a choice?"

"Don't worry, Prince. Everything is up to Xiao Wang. Hateful that long sun Huan is as timid as a mouse, at this time unexpectedly to me to avoid but disappear; Fang Yiai that fellow is hateful even more. You can't live without a dead body! But it doesn't matter, Xiao Wang has a lot of hands and means! ——The prince will have a rest. Xiao Wang will arrange it right away! "

On the other side, the Wei palace.

Li Tai was surrounded by a group of people and had been deliberating for a long time.

"Your Royal Highness, at this moment, you have to stay in the palace and accompany your majesty, who is seriously ill. On the one hand, we can keep the name of benevolence and filial piety, and on the other hand, we can avoid giving people a handle. I'll take care of the rest. "

"Good." Li Tai nodded, "what's the matter. So it was agreed. Now, we must try our best to save Qin mubai! If the prince and the king of Han want to harm him, we will save him. As a matter of fact, people know that Qin mubai must have been framed by the king of Han. Although the king of the Han Dynasty was bold, he could not do such a thing without the prince's approval and support. Brother Fang... "

Room parents male room left straight arched hand should be a light: "a room in."

Li Tai patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said gratefully, "thank you this time. If it were not for you to provide such important information, we would be in the dark. Ah, I didn't expect that your brother was so stubborn that he conspired with the king of Han to do such a thing and made your father faint. These unworthy people should clean up the door and get rid of harm for the country. You can rest assured that after the event, only the house will be punished, and the rest will not be asked. Xiao Wang, your house is safe. "

"Thank King Wei..." Fang Yizhi bowed his hand and said, "unfortunately, I'm a scum! Originally, my father had tied him up and offered him to the emperor, but my doting mother released him in private, which made my father seriously ill. Now, if this animal is harming outside again, what should we do? Therefore, Fang came to report the matter to the king of Wei. I hope that the king of Wei will do justice. On the one hand, he will help me clean up the door and keep my family safe. On the other hand, he will return the truth to Qin mubai and his innocence. "

"Brother Fang, don't worry. Xiao Wang has always been upright and impartial. He also has a high respect for your father and Qin mubai. He will certainly have a good sense of propriety. " Li Tai is a little complacent.

No wonder even the eldest son of the Fang family came to him for help. As soon as the emperor fell down, it seemed that he was in charge of the imperial court. If you can take the opportunity to win over Fang family, save Qin mubai and show him great kindness, won't you be as stable as a mountain above the court and enter the East Palace soon?!

This is really watching the tiger fight on the mountain and making a lot of profits!

"Let's discuss the matter here for the time being." Li Tai stood up, fat body in a group of people sitting. Especially striking, he said, "tomorrow morning, I'll avoid it. You jointly wrote to protect Qin mubai and impeach the king of Han Dynasty. "

"Do you want to mention the prince?" Someone asked.

"No way." Li Tai said decisively, "never mention the prince. At this time, if it's against the prince, everyone knows that I instigated you. If it comes to my father's ears, even if I bring down the prince, my life will not be long. However, as long as the impeachment of the king of the Han Dynasty is revealed, will the crown prince be far away? So. My eldest brother, the prince, who is always impatient, will certainly jump out and do something extraordinary. This is called playing hard to get and frightening the snake. Moreover, the county government of Chang'an, the Yushitai and Dali Temple must arrest Fang Yiai who is at large as soon as possible, so that he can see people in life and corpses in death! "

"Yes They all agreed.

With a smile, Li Tai shook his broad sleeves and walked out with a high air: "after you have a rest for tea, Xiao Wang will go into the palace by himself and be filial before his father's bed"

"congratulations to the king of Wei..."

In Baiqi camp, Qin mubai sat under a tree with a small wooden table, a pot of wine and two dishes. He raised his glass and looked at his head.

The wind is blowing and the leaves are dancing.

"It's cloudy, it's windy..." Qin Mu Bai's face rippled with a faint smile and said to himself, "I've only heard spring thunder for days. Is the first storm of this year finally coming down? The dragon and snake come out of the mountain, the wind and rain are coming, interesting... "

A nearby Baiqi said, "general, how about moving to the house to drink?"

"No more." Qin Mu Bai said with a smile, "the beauty of drinking wine is to see more and less. No, I'll go to bed. When you wake up, the clouds will change color, the thunder will shake the universeA few hundred riders all looked at Qin mubai, and let him walk into the room. They really fell on the bed and fell asleep.

"What changes the color of the wind and the earth? Does he mean something in secret, or is he full of fear and will not choose what to say? "

"Who knows! He's a mystery. Have you ever seen a felon who's here, and still want to taste wine and enjoy the scenery? "

"It's mysterious I don't understand

"If you understood, you would not be here to watch the prison serve the prisoners. The handsome chair that has been empty in the main room of Baiqi yamen will also let you sit on it. "
