The group of three people, except for the woman in the lead, two entourages stood outside the door.

Li Xuandu is talking about these two people.

The woman who was about to speak heard Li Xuandu's words and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

But without waiting for her to explain, the entourage who had fought with Xu Jiu had already stepped across the threshold and entered Li Xuandu's study.

This time, Xu Jiu did not stop him.

The entourage asked, "Mr. Qingping remembers me?"

It is to remember rather than recognize it, and it is undoubtedly to acknowledge the saying that "old friends and old friends are acquainted".

Li Xuandu said: "If I remember correctly, you are the prince of the King of Yan."

The King of Yan was getting stronger and stronger. When he was old, he was called a son. In terms of age, he was almost the same as his grandson. He was inevitably arrogant. Therefore, the prince was famously domineering in the imperial capital and caused many major disasters, but they were all covered by the King of Yan. Last time, the eldest princess Xuanzhen went to Jingzhou to meet Zhao Lianggeng, who was still the governor of Jingchu at that time, and discussed the matter of going to the capital. In addition to the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor, the prince of Yan was also the prince.

At that time, the prince of the King of Yan and Li Xuan had a conflict and was easily captured by Li Xuan, and finally the eldest princess Xuanzhen came forward to rescue the siege. At that time, Li Xuan was a little curious about why the prince of the King of Yan was in a hall and was with the eldest princess Xuanzhen and the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse. If he only accumulated merit, he would have been a little too mobilized.

But later, Li Xuandu was busy with his affairs and forgot this matter. Until now, he recognized the prince of Yan again, and his previous questions were filled with thoughts.

The prince of the Yan prince seemed a little unusual.

At the same time, Li Xuandu remembered a past incident. The identity of the King of Qi of the Earth Master Xu Wugui is a top secret. Although some people in the royal family know about it, they are also very few. At least Princess Xuanzhen didn’t know about it, but she learned this secret from Li Xuandu’s mouth. To put it another way, Princess Xuanzhen is not a core member of the royal family.

After careful discussion, although Emperor Muzong loved this sister, he did not give her much authority, and would not allow her to participate in the government affairs. Princess Xuanzhen truly held great power and began to participate in the government affairs was actually after Emperor Muzong was seriously ill, that is, the period from the 11th year of Wude to the 2nd year of Tianbao.

During this period, Princess Xuanzhen was attracted by the Empress Dowager Xie Zhi, and used the intermediary to reconcile the conflict between the four ministers and the royal family. It was like the emperor's balance technique. Only when both sects had to seek the emperor, the emperor's words were counted. At that time, the four ministers and the royal family had not completely broken up, and they all needed the role of the middleman, which made Princess Xuanzhen's status soar. However, Princess Xuanzhen's time in power was too short, and many secrets might not be able to know everything, including the matter of the King of Qi.

In this regard, as the oldest King of Yan in the royal family, he is the one who knows the most secrets.

As a result, Li Xuandu had a bold guess in his mind, whether the Prince of Yan represented the Prince of Yan? The last time Prince of Yan was traveling to Jingchu with Prince of Emperor Xuanzhen, the reason why Prince of Yan accompanied him was to check for omissions and fill in the gaps?

But Li Xuandu was also a little uncertain. Because the temperament shown by the Prince of Yan was better, it was called naive and ugly, and it was embarrassing the great responsibility. If it was really as Li Xuandu guessed, the Prince of Yan was responsible for a great responsibility, then it could only be said that national affairs were still so sarcastic, and the Xu family of the Great Wei Dynasty should be exhausted. The Prince of Yan was not as domineering as last time. He first bowed to Li Xuandu, and then said: "Everyone in the world said that scholars should treat each other with admiration for three days, but since I met Mr. Qingping again in Ping'an County, I was not just treating each other with admiration, but it was not an exaggeration to see Mr. Qingping again."

If Li Xuandu had heard such words, he would have retorted. However, now, Li Xuandu just laughed it off and asked, "Is Your Highness the Crown Prince coming on behalf of the King of Yan?"

The prince of Yan said, "I dare not be Mr. Qingping's voice, 'Your Highness', my name is Xu Zaijun. As for what Mr. Qingping asked just now, I can also answer the sir, which is exactly what my father meant."

Li Xuan understood a little. These clans were born with two faces. In front of the elders, they were all young talents who abide by etiquette and rules, but when they came outside, they turned into domineering and arrogant playboys. Now, looking at the prince of Yan, he was behaving properly, not as unbearable as what he saw last time. In the final analysis, it was because Li Xuandu had a high status, so he was surrounded by "good people". Even such a Tai Sui figure dared not act too much.

Li Xuandu asked again: "One represents the King of Yan, one represents the Empress Dowager, and one represents the other?"

There was another entourage standing outside the door, never crossing the threshold. Hearing Li Xuandu’s question, the entourage then stepped over the threshold and whispered: “The prince-in-law Ouyang Wen has met Mr. Qingping.”

Li Xuandu said, "I've heard of you."

Ouyang Wen lowered his head slightly, "I'm afraid, I'm just a son-in-law."

"It's true that the son-in-law of the son-in-law is also to look at which family. How can the family be a good family be used to be a casual family?" Li Xuan smiled. "Although the son-in-law of this dynasty is not allowed to participate in political affairs, most of them can only worship Xiaoling, conduct temple sacrifices, and hold ancestral affairs, but there are exceptions. I remember that you should be the commander of the palace guards, the general of the ceremonial guards, and the captain of the strong men, and the confidant of His Majesty and the Queen Mother."

Ouyang Wen's expression changed slightly. Unexpectedly, Li Xuan knew his existence. He was shocked, but his face was not revealed. He said, "Mr. Qingping lives high on Mount Zhongnan, but he knows the imperial capital thousands of miles away. It is really admirable."

"You are not sincere in your words." Li Xuandu said, "Is it more shocking, right?"

Ouyang Wen immediately lowered his head, "I dare not."

"It doesn't matter whether you dare or not." Li Xuandu raised his hand and pressed down, "Please sit down and talk to everyone."

Li Xuandu's study was actually a place of discussion, so four chairs were placed against the wall for others to sit down. Xu Zaijun and Ouyang Wen looked at each other and sat down against the wall. Only the woman sat opposite Li Xuandu. From this point of view, the three of them were still led by this woman.

Li Xuan looked at the woman sitting opposite him and said, "I only know about the prince and the prince consort recently, but I don't know your identity."

The woman did not answer positively, but asked: "Mr. Qingping knows the imperial capital well. Now that the imperial capital is in trouble, is it related to Mr. Qingping?"

Li Xuan did not answer, but Xu Jiu, who had been silent, said: "What's the matter? So what's the matter?"

The woman was stunned and suddenly looked at Xu Jiu who had been standing at the door.

Xu Jiu walked into the study room, stood beside Li Xuandu's desk, facing the three visitors, and continued, "Mr. Qingping is sitting high on Mount Zhongnan. You can place all the charges on Mr. Qingping, but you can't do anything to Mr. Qingping. Otherwise, you don't have to go to Mount Zhongnan to meet Mr. Qingping in person."

The woman forced a smile, "Mr. Qingping, I don't know what Xu Jiu means?"

Li Xuandu looked at Xu Jiu again.

"It's okay if you know what it means or don't know what it means." Xu Jiu said understandably, "Is this related to what we are going to talk about today?"

The woman understood, "Yes."

Xu Jiu said: "May I ask about the girl's name?"

The woman replied: "My surname is Lou, my name is Lou Xinqing, Xie Zhi and Gu Yusheng are my senior sisters."

Li Xuandu finally spoke, "It turns out to be Miss Lou. If you start from the third sister-in-law, you and I have some connections. As for the Queen Mother Xie Zhi... it would be better if the Queen Mother Xie sent you to make peace?"

Lou Xinqing was silent for a moment and said the word "yes".

Li Xuandu is not surprised. This is the biggest difference between people in the temple and people in the rivers and lakes. People in the rivers and lakes pay attention to being mortal, but people in the temples do not. They pay attention to compromise and everything can be discussed. Therefore, in the eyes of people in the rivers and lakes, Li Xuandu has long been mortal with the court, and there is no room for compromise. But in the eyes of people in the court, the so-called lack of room is just that the price is not enough, not to mention whether it can be afforded, you have to ask for the price first, and you can also ask for the price everywhere to pay back the money. You can also fight and negotiate while fighting, so you search for inn riots and send people to negotiate. These two things do not conflict. Even if you can't talk, you can also use a delaying strategy to stabilize Li Xuandu for the time being.

For Li Xuandu, there are things in the world that can be tolerated, and there are things that cannot be tolerated. Some things can be compromised, while others cannot be compromised. In this matter, he will not compromise, but he does not want to let others know that they will not compromise. Xie Zhi can use a delayed strategy, and he can also use a delayed strategy, pretending to agree, which makes Xie Zhi and others have a lucky thought, so he said: "Since that is the case, I want to hear what the Empress Dowager gave."

"Then I will speak bluntly. If there is any inappropriate words, I hope Mr. Qingping will forgive me." Lou Xinqing said: "Mr. Qingping is an immortal of immortality and will sooner or later ascend to heaven. For Mr. Qingping, this matter on earth is just a dream of Nan Ke. If Mr. Qingping can make a step back, the court will directly recognize Mr. Qingping as the chief sect of the Taoist sect..."

Before Lou Xinqing finished speaking, Xu Jiu interrupted: "Who is the leader of the Taoist sect? What the court says is not the limit, what the Confucian sect says is not the limit, what the Taoist sect says is not the limit. If I say that the court only needs to allocate three million taels of silver, the Taoist sect will admit that Emperor Tianbao is the current emperor. I wonder what the court thinks?"

Lou Xinqing already understood that Xu Jiu was Li Xuandu's words, and Li Xuan didn't want to say anything, and all the things that were hard to say were Xu Jiu. However, Li Xuan didn't speak, leaving room for maneuver.
