Xu Yijiu couldn't calm down for a long time. After a long time, he recovered a little and tried to keep calm. Then he asked, "then you and the crown prince use the holy things to plot this plot, but I still want to know why?"
In Xu Yi's opinion, whether the art of observing heaven is true or not? Or will fasting 15 years later come as promised? He is still concerned about the present, the plot itself and whether he can get away.
Because Li Shouli made it clear that Xu Yi's arrival tonight is also in his plan, and he still invites the king into the urn. I'm afraid he has more schemes to make Xu Yi doomed.
As for the 15 years, it's still a long way from now. Even if it's true, what can Xu Yi change by being alone?
Seeing Xu Yi's calmness restored, Li Shouli also regained his composure and said leisurely: "I saw the disaster of Datang with the skill of observing the sky, and I also saw the hope of Datang. It is the crown prince who saved Datang from fire and water, turned the tide from the fall, and saved the people all over the world from danger. Therefore, he must not have anything to do and must bear the responsibility of saving Datang.
"However, the world knows that the saints are afraid of the prince. If they plan carelessly, avoid the suspicion of the saints and let the prince die halfway, who can resolve the disaster fifteen years later?"
"So the crown prince and I, as early as a few years ago, have secretly planned to plan a chance for him to stand up and protect his life so that he can stick to the opportunity to save Datang."
Xu Yi seemed to realize something and thought about it: "then you used the holy thing and the Yulong Gang to find the Sogdians and let them create a conspiracy to cause the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Dakang Kingdom, so as to divert the attention of the imperial court and have no power to criticize the crown prince, right? If I expected it right, you had planned to be the old family and the prince of Persia long ago!"
Li Shouli smiled calmly and said frankly, "yes, those Sogdians are indeed a part of my plan. They made the holy things and have a great feud with Dakang. Just ignite the seed of hatred and you can go all the way."
"The Warring States that provoked the Tang Dynasty and the kingdom of Dakang, which is the first country in the western regions. Once the war is triggered, the western regions will be in chaos. All the energy of the imperial court will deal with the western regions, and the crown prince is naturally safe."
"But I didn't expect that the Sogdians were so useless and easily rebelled. I had to change my strategy and find the prince of Persia again and let him be my second chess piece."
Xu Yi gently picked up the eyebrow peak and whispered, "the second chess piece?"
Li Shouli talked freely and said without hesitation: "it has been a hundred years since the destruction of the Persian country, but the three generations of Persian princes have never forgotten to restore the country. As long as he gets the holy things, he will be given the opportunity to borrow troops from Tubo and complete his dream of restoration."
"Unfortunately, he is only fit to live in a dream! Because he doesn't know that the reason why Persia can't recover is not that they are unable to do it, but that our Tang Dynasty doesn't want it to recover."
"Because after the restoration of Persia, it will take revenge with the great food country. After repeated wars, there is no peace for the people. How do the caravans on the Silk Road travel?"
"In this way, will it not affect the spread of the Tang Dynasty? Therefore, after he recovers the country with Tubo soldiers, the Tang Dynasty will not sit idly by and can also provoke foreign wars. At that time, the imperial court will have no time to take care of him, and the crown prince will still ensure that there is no danger."
Speaking of this, the king hesitated a little and didn't seem to think: "as for the old leader, it's beyond my expectation. However, even if she participates, it won't affect my plan. After all, she is a woman with only gold and silver interests in her eyes. How can she know the general interests of the country? I want to pinch her like looking for things from my pocket."
Xu Yizhen didn't expect that King Ying had such a plan, which was not far-reaching and cruel. At the same time, he felt cold. In order to save one person, he provoked wars in several countries and ignored the lives of the people. What does this man mean?
Li Shouli's original intention is not just to save the prince.
Even more accurately, the crown prince is just his chess piece. His purpose is only to save the future of Datang. He doesn't want Datang to fall in the disaster 15 years later. It's really hard to judge which is right or wrong, which is wrong or which is wrong.
He is a Buddha and a demon. It's hard to guess.
But his dedication to Datang is unmatched.
But Xu Yi doesn't understand that now both the Sogdians and the prince of Persia have given up planning sacred objects. It is supposed that Li Shouli's plot should have been broken. But why is he so calm that he hasn't given up the plot, but is still going on?
Seeing Xu Yi's doubts, Li Shouli continued, "I just didn't expect so many changes in this plan."
"In particular, you, Xu Moxia, are even more out of control. Let the Sogdians and the prince of Persia give up their hatred and restoration dream because of the existence of those gold vessels. It really chills me!"
"But I'm more impressed with you, Mo Xia. I didn't see the wrong person when I chose you as a chess piece."
Li Shouli had something in his words, which seemed to have more profound meaning. Xu Yi didn't know his meaning, so he picked his eyebrow and said, "how do you say that?"
Li Shouli picked up the teacup, sipped the tea gently, then picked up the pottery pot, filled it up for himself, and continued: "in fact, before planning, I had expected that the Sogdians were as timid as life. I was afraid that the club would trust non-human beings. Although the prince of Persia had ambitions, he was just a withered wood. How can he support the talents of pillars?"
"I use them just to hope. If I can succeed, it's best, and I won't be distressed if I fail. At most, it takes some twists and turns, and the plan will not be affected. The crown prince is still fine afterwards."
Xu Yi suddenly felt awe inspiring. The original plot planned by Li Shouli had not only planned a way back, but also made all preparations. Even if the previous plan failed, it was just preparation for the back, which could not change the final outcome.
So what is the purpose of Li Shouli?
Thinking of this, Xu Yi asked again, "Your Highness, since all the pieces have failed, is the plan still meaningful?"
But unexpectedly, Li Shouli suddenly laughed. In his old and shriveled chest, he seemed to burst into infinite power and looked very careful: "the chess piece failed, but I, the chess player, is still here! As long as I am still here, this chess game is not a failure."
After a pause, he suddenly stopped laughing and calmly continued: "it doesn't hurt to tell you. In fact, whether the Sogdians or the prince of Persia succeed in the end or not, it doesn't affect the final outcome, because none of them can get the holy thing, which is just a dead thing."
Xu Yi frowned and remembered that in recent days, there had been several holy objects in succession, all of which were fake. Even the holy objects given to him by Feng Lao were imitated by the craftsman ordered by the sage at the beginning.
If you think of Li Shouli again, has that sacred thing been in Li Shouli's hands from beginning to end? Has it ever been stolen?
If so, Li Shouli would be terrible. He used only holy things as a cover to make so many forces fight against each other, which attracted the eyes and ears of countless dignitaries, and even saints. It can be seen that his plot is great.
After figuring out the joints, Xu Yi suddenly calmed down. He was not surprised when there were waves in his heart. It seemed that he had already seen strange things. He calmly said, "why?"
Perhaps as expected, Li Shouli waited for Xu Yi to speak, and then replied, "my original intention in planning this plan is only to protect the crown prince. As long as I can achieve this goal, I will not hesitate to provoke a war between the two countries or other incidents."
"Xu Moxia also knows that the Yulong Gang is under the crown prince, so there is only one result of so many incidents, which is to let everyone understand that the holy things are always in the hands of the Yulong gang."
"The sage is not only intelligent, but also suspicious. When the holy thing loses its whereabouts, he will think it has been obtained by the crown prince. If the sage can think of this, Li Linfu and others can think of it, they can give them an excuse to criticize the crown prince. This is called living after death."
"Now my plan has been made. If you expect it well, the treacherous ministers headed by Li Linfu will not miss this opportunity to attack the crown prince in the calyx Xianghui building tomorrow night."
"At that time, the sage will be happy to see his success and use Li Linfu to suppress the crown prince. As long as the crown prince is unable to protect himself, he will not pose a threat to the sage, and the sage will dispel suspicion. This is the art of emperor balance."
"In this way, there is no need to provoke the two countries to stand up and protect the people of Datang from war, and there is no need for the officers and soldiers of Datang to give their lives in vain. Isn't it a perfect policy for the crown prince to be safe?"
Speaking of this, Li Shouli smiled and became interested: "Xu Moxia, you are not the only one who has the heart of benevolence and righteousness. As a great master of the Tang Dynasty, don't I know how to cherish the common people?"
"If I had to, how could I provoke the war between the two countries and trap the people in the war? This strategy of killing the enemy is the next one, and it will bring untold harm to our Tang Dynasty. Although I don't hesitate to be famous for the Tang Dynasty, I don't want to be infamous for thousands of years
Xu Yi was shocked. It turned out that Li Shouli's original intention was to save the crown prince and save the Tang Dynasty in the future, but it was not ruthless. He just wanted to use the emperor's skill to make the saints show compassion for the crown prince, so as to save the crown prince.
The Sogdian and the prince of Persia are his pieces from beginning to end, which are made for outsiders to see.
But think about it. When he was in his twilight years, he had not planned for the future of Datang. How could he ignore the people and soldiers of Datang? Don't you know what will happen to Datang if the two countries fight together!
He loved Datang so much that he didn't want to see Datang hurt more.
So that at one moment, Xu Yi suddenly felt a little more sympathy for the old man, but it was only sympathy, not half respect, because he made such a conspiracy, which itself was not worthy of admiration.
Now that all the truth has been revealed, Xu Yi has no regrets and worries. As long as he retreats from here, he can escape Chang'an calmly.
