Chapter 901 The Royal Mantra

Even though he was very wary of Guli Peiluo and had doubts about the destruction of the Turks. However, since Zhang Xing had seen the Uighur envoy, Du Shiyi was not able to hide this kind of thing. While thinking about the best method, he rushed to Chang'an, saying that the three tribes of the Uighur Basimir Gelu planned to jointly send envoys to pay homage on the Qianqiu Festival. If it were the past, Li Longji would come to pay homage to these tribes of Turks, which was the case. But now that the Turks gradually showed their declining momentum, his mind was already a little active. Therefore, after reading the report, he immediately agreed and was extremely content when mentioning this matter in front of the prime minister.

Even though Li Linfu sneered in his heart, it was obvious that today that Zi was aware of Du Shiyi. If he was purely destructive, it would be counterproductive. Therefore, he naturally changed his mind and praised Du Shiyi as having few in the sky and unparalleled on the earth. Niu Xianke had some personal relationships with Du Shiyi, and he always followed Li Linfu's leader, so he would not say anything bad. So Li Longji once again felt that the two prime ministers were the most worry-free. Compared to Yao Chong's sleek and extremely selfish, Song Jing's straightforwardness and incompetence were unrestrained. Later, the prime ministers kept fighting, and now this combination is undoubtedly a perfect match.

So, after discussing the pilgrimage to the three tribes of Uighur Basimir Grolu, Li Longji suddenly asked casually: "Now the Eastern Palace is empty and the reserve is vacant, which is not a solution. The two of them are the priests, can there be corresponding candidates?"

As soon as Niu Xianke encountered this problem, he immediately became an ostrich, and this time was no exception. He immediately bowed his head and bowed and said submissively: "All princes have inherited the Hadith of Your Majesty丨Your Majesty's opinion is suitable, and he must be the best candidate for the Eastern Palace."

Li Longji was already used to Niu Xianke's attitude and did not think it was offensive. He looked at Li Linfu again. Under his eyes, Li Linfu bowed calmly and then said calmly: "Since Your Majesty has posthumously conferred the title of Empress Zhenshun, then King Shou and King Sheng are undoubtedly legitimate sons. According to the opinions of the minister, establishing King Shou is naturally the best choice."

Seeing that the emperor was silent, Li Linfu emphasized his tone and said, "Also, the reason why the deposed prince and the two common people rebelled against each other was that the concubines were ineffective and even instigated him was also one of the reasons. Princess Shou was born into a large family and had studied with the noble Lord of Yuzhen, who was virtuous and polite. If Princess Shou was appointed as the Eastern Palace and Princess Shou was the crown prince's concubine, he would definitely be able to serve the emperor with respect and filial piety and brotherly responsibilities. Please ask Your Majesty to judge him."

This is not the first time Li Linfu said in front of the emperor that King Shou could be granted the title of crown prince. Even Niu Xianke, who did not interfere with the title of crown prince, had already vaguely noticed that Concubine Wu Hui suddenly passed away half a year after Li Ying and the other three were deposed and exiled. Even if he was posthumously titled the queen, this situation seemed a little wrong. He did not believe that Li Linfu, who was more than twice as smart as himself, would not have any feelings. Therefore, he felt that Li Linfu frequently recommended King Shou from the bottom of his heart, but he could not ask or think about this kind of thing, so he simply continued to pretend to be mute.

"Shibalang is handsome and handsome, what you said is not unreasonable... well, let me think about it again."

If Li Linfu changed his course immediately after Wu Huifei's death, Li Longji might have thought of replacing the prime minister, but Li Linfu insisted that King Shou was most suitable for the position of crown prince. Instead, he felt that Li Linfu deserved to be in line with his own heart. Moreover, with Li Linfu and Niu Xianke working together, the government affairs were in order and there were few things that needed to worry about themselves. He was unwilling to easily remove such a look and understand the prime minister who could understand it and let himself be free and easy. When Li Linfu Niu Xianke took his leave, he sat there pondered for a long time and suddenly sighed.

"I have so many sons, can I achieve only one King of Shou can inherit the throne?"

Gao Lishi happened to come in from outside. After hearing this, he immediately made a gesture to the eunuchs and palace servants from all directions. When he came to the emperor, he smiled and said, "Why do you say this? If you don't say anything else, the older princes will have their own merits. Furthermore, Empress Zhenshun is after all, and is not a legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate legitimate if your Majesty thinks that Shou is young and not enough to take on heavy responsibilities, and when this happens, the foreign ministers will definitely have nothing to say."

Li Longji waited for this sentence. A minister like Zhang Jiuling was not present and the throne was empty, so no one proposed to establish a chief, of course, which means that if he really established a chief, the prince would not have much power to support him in the future. But in the end, for such a big event, he needed an opportunity to make a promise, even the advice of Gao Lishi, the close servant, would be extremely precious.

So, he nodded without thinking and said, "You said that King Qing is very kind, since he is disabled, King Zhong is as loyal as he is, and has always been loyal."

Although he said this to Gao Lishi, Li Longji did not make the final decision. On the afternoon of the day, he summoned Yu Nu again, but this time it was in Liyuan. After letting the people in the Jiaofang play the Liangzhou song in front of him, he said thoughtfully: "I think that although these Liangzhou lyrics are vast and distant, they move all the listeners, but it seems that just music is missing something. What do you think?"

Yu Nu has now returned to King Shou’s house, and she has been relieved when she and King Shou Li Mao are not involved in the well water. She has frequently gone in and out of the palace, and her initial tension and fear have disappeared, but doubts are inevitable. However, facing the most familiar music theory, she immediately left all her concerns behind her. After careful consideration, she suddenly clasped her hands and said, "Xiliang music and dance should be a unique one, but now she has fun but no dance, so of course she has lost the most important charm."

"When Guo Zhiyun presented Liangzhou songs, corresponding dancers were sent, but the music and dance performed by those dancers were very different from the Jiaofang, let alone the level of the Liyuan."

Li Longji has a wide range of interests, including bow, horse, riding, shooting, polo music, and even chanting poems and essays. At this moment, he and Yu Nu, who were several decades apart from him, gradually began to talk about Western Liang music and even Western music, and had long forgotten everyone around him. When he first came to his senses, he saw that the sitting genius who had played music before had already looked tired and immediately sent everyone back. When only a few close people were left beside him, he suddenly changed his lyrics and said, "Yang, since last year, there has been no lord in the East Palace, and the throne has been empty, and all the subjects in the world are uneasy. I ask you now, do you think King Shou deserves to be the East Palace?"

Yu Nu was wary of the emperor asking such things at the beginning when she entered the palace, but after a long time, Li Longji never talked about government affairs to her, and she gradually felt relieved. But now such a question suddenly came to her face. She was not so shocked, but rather bitter. It took her a long time to boldly raise her head to face the emperor.

"Your Majesty, forgive me for offending. I don't know whether King Shou can be the Eastern Palace. I only know that I have shallow talents and virtues, and I am not enough to be the Eastern Palace Concubine." Since I said the deepest words in my heart, Yu Nu simply took it aside. "I don't like to care about those erotic matters, and I don't like to force myself to live with those concubines. I have no intention of taking care of the children born in Shouwang. Now King Shou can tolerate me, but because I am a disciple of my master, and it has not hindered him. But if King Shou enters the Eastern Palace and even rules the world, how can he tolerate me?"

The Yang family's marriage between Yu Nu and Li Mao was also advocated by Wu Huifei. In recent days, the Yang family came to Shouwang's house again and again. The meaning between the lines made Yu Nu annoyed. Moreover, when she thought of the tragic situation in the Crown Princess Xue's family, it was enough to be scared. Because Li Ying and the other three were exiled to common people, Xue and her children all became rootless duckweed. If Xue had not written a letter to ask Du to be a nun, the emperor would have given all his children to King Qing Li Cong to raise, and Li Ying's wife and children were not sure what they looked like. So, regardless of all this, she bit her lips tightly and waited for the worst.

At worst, she can be quiet if she is deposed as the position of Princess of Birth.

Li Longji stared at Yu Nu who was determined to look at him, but after a while, he laughed. There were all kinds of concubines and palace servants in the palace, and everyone tried their best to cater to his preferences. Even the princesses and princesses and princesses tried their best to figure out what he was thinking and tried to show the best side in front of him. The princess Yang, the princess, used to behave his own way, but now it seems that he has entered the palace more and more innocent. His innocence is becoming more obvious. The reason he said is even more terrifying. Why don’t he make him angry and funny?

"What is your Majesty laughing?" Although Yu Nu was waiting for the final ruling, Li Longji smiled happily, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed, "If you think I'm not virtuous, you'll just say that you're done."

Although everyone knows that since the three brothers Li Ying, Li Yao and Li Ju were deposed as commoners and demoted to foreign lands, Princess Shou has frequently traveled to and from the palace, which is simply a special encounter that other princes and princesses cannot match. The Princess Shou has few scruples and has never said anything wrong before, but this time it is even more amazing. Seeing that she was so stubborn in front of the emperor, some people wanted to interrupt, but she was afraid of Li Longji's sudden gaze. So, seeing that Yu Nu was still staring at the emperor fearlessly, I don't know how many people were sweating.

"The only one dares to tell the truth about this." Li Longji slapped the handrail. He was sitting cross-legged and stood up. Then he said lightly, "Since you are a resentful person, you don't have to make do with it. Come and send Princess Birth back to Yuzhen Temple."

If someone else had already fallen down on the ground and begged for mercy after hearing this, Yu Nu's eyes lit up and showed joy. She was not the one she liked, whether she married Prince Shou Li Mao or other people, it didn't matter. As long as she could make her live happily, what the Yang family wanted was no longer the glory of Princess Shou, but the honor of Princess's family, and she had to gradually feel disappointed. So after she gave her politeness and thanked her, she stood up and walked out without looking back.

Finally, I can read the Taoist scriptures smoothly with my master and aunt again and talk about it all.

"Your Majesty, Princess Shou is so young that she is confused..." Seeing that the situation is not good, an eunuch finally couldn't help but persuade her, but what she got was Li Longji turning his head over and glanced sharply.

"Young? Confused? Although she is young, she can see clearly than anyone else." Li Longji sneered, and then ordered, "Call the Lishi, and then prepare for it. I am going to Xingqing Palace."

Xingqing Palace is the main place of Xingqing Palace, and it is the place where the emperor usually meets with ministers. Now Li Longji is not as concerned about the affairs of the foreign court as before. In addition to the prime minister, there are few foreign ministers who summoned him, so this place is no longer used as before. Therefore, when Li Linfu and Niu Xianke stepped into Xingqing Palace for the second time within this day, they saw that there were still several Shangshus of the Shangshushang Province and Pei Yaoqing, the right prime minister of Shangshushang, and the two couldn't help but exchanged glances. At this moment, Niu Xianke, who was just in charge of the position of the minister, had already understood that the emperor was afraid that he would decide to make a crown prince.

"The East Palace is not a long-term solution. Therefore, after Li Ying was deposed last year, I secretly checked the princes' character and had already chosen the candidates for the East Palace. King Zhong Li, loyal, kind and filial, is also the oldest person outside King Qing, so I have decided to make King Zhong the crown prince of the East Palace."

As soon as these words were said, the ministers suddenly looked different. Li Liang, the Minister of Personnel, was the oldest and most experienced among the people. He was slightly surprised and returned to normal after hearing this. Xi Yu, the Minister of Revenue, served as the Minister of Personnel in his early years and was the longest in the Minister of the Secretariat. But for this reason, he knew very well that Li Linfu was the most powerful person to support Li Mao, Shou. The emperor even posthumously named him the queen after Wu Huifei's past life, and he was extremely mourning and honored. Now he has a title of King Zhong as the crown prince. This is really unexpected. As for the Minister of Rites, Du Xian, the Minister of Rites, is still alive, as if he doesn't care about the ownership of the throne. He has been the prime minister and has gone around and returned to the court for a long time.

Since Zhang Jiuling was demoted, Pei Yaoqing has become disheartened. Except for a few times of advice, he often entertains himself and does not care about foreign affairs. But even he can't help but glance at Li Linfu at this moment, thinking that he would have nothing to do. What would Li Linfu feel?

Li Linfu is now the Minister of War, while Niu Xianke is also the Minister of Works, and Pei Yaoqing, except for the insignificant Minister of Justice, it can be said that all the people who should arrive have arrived. No matter what their own thoughts are, at this moment, everyone bowed and responded. Li Longji summoned the Secretariat's servant to come to make an imperial edict, drafted a custom-made book on the spot, and ordered Pei Yaoqing to lead the many rituals to agree to the enthronement of the crown prince. After all these were arranged, he said indifferently: "The Princess Yang of Shou has been weak and sick since King Shou, and I have ordered someone to send her back to Yuzhen Temple to rest."

As soon as these words were said, the true faces were different. The reason why everyone thought that Shou Prince Li Mao was the best candidate for the crown prince was that the emperor had often summoned Princess Yang recently. Today, not only did he enthrone Prince Li, but he also sent Princess Yang back to Yuzhenguan to rest. The ministers couldn't help but have an idea.

Could it be that the emperor has been using tricks for nearly a year before? Now that the throne has been decided, the disguise of Princess Yang who seems to love Chongshou can be mercilessly ripped off.

Realizing the many eyes that were observing him, Li Linfu sneered in his heart, but he was still calm. When everyone left the Xingqing Palace together, he walked back to the Secretariat Province, and in this way, the Secretariat's servant knew the edicts and wrote them in front of the imperial court, and stamped his seal on the book that was about to be sent to the door. Then he whispered to himself: "Who will win the destiny? It's not known yet."

If King Zhong becomes the crown prince but still does not form power, then this crown prince will only be more cowardly than Li Ying, and may not be able to be so peaceful for the rest of his life; and if he is in a dark force, with him, Li Linfu, he will wait to be cut off and beat back to his original form. In short, this is a protracted battle of who can survive whom. Fortunately, Li Linfu is still in his early fifties and is only two years older than Dangzi.

When the matter of enthroning the prince was quickly spread from the palace to outside the palace through the book making, and immediately reached the ears of the person involved, King Zhong Li, he slapped the table and angrily scolded the ecstatic eunuch and said, "You can believe these rumors outside."

Princess Zhong, seeing Li angrily coming up, was about to send someone on the spot, so she quickly stepped forward and pulled him away, then shook the eunuch back with her eyes, and then persuaded him: "Even if it's really a mistake, there's no need to get such a big temper."

"Brother Qing is a child who cares about nothing, and even the children of the prince's brother have been given to him to raise. It can be seen that no one will be allowed to establish him. And how popular is the Eighteen Lang? You have seen it over the years. If someone pushes me out on the grounds of standing up, how many lives will I have to worry about?" Li sat down in dismay, suddenly clenched his fists and pounded his pound on the desk. "Brother Zhao Li was there, and he was once glorious, at least he had a status in the grandfather's mind. But what about me? My mother has been alive for many years, and she can't even say a formal title. What's that?"

Prince Li of Zhong was not outstanding among the princes, but only occupied an older light. Although Wei was born in Jingzhao, his father was once the governor, and his sister was the late Princess Huixuan, who was the former Princess Xue, but he was also afraid for many years. Li Longji had always been very strict with his brothers. Except for Prince Ning Li Xian, who was extremely cautious, he was always standing firm. Prince Qi Li Fan was beaten several times because he was not careful enough to speak and act. Princess Xue Li Ye, who was posthumously named Prince Huixuan, also implicated Princess Wei's younger brother, and Wei Bin, who was also Prince Zhong, was killed by sticks. Even Princess Xue was so scared that she was punished in the family, thinking that she would definitely be deposed. After Li Longji was pardoned, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The only thing that can be comforted by talking about this is that Wei's brother Wei Jian has been in a smooth career because of his wise and capable position. Now he has served as the Chang'an Order, and his family is glorious. At this critical moment, if you come to the wrong way to spread the holy will, you will be finished.

Wei felt a little scared, but he forced a smile and said, "For such a big thing, you shouldn't be so angry, right?"

King Zhong Li was angry, but he thought that it would be too incredible if he was really spreading such a message in the daytime. He and his wife looked at each other and took a breath.

"Is it really a pie falling from the sky?"

When the official angel from the palace arrived at the Zhongwang's house to congratulate him, Li and Wei were sure that this was indeed not a dream. However, they could not feel a trace of joy, only fear and doubt. Li Longji, who was not the eldest son, could be said to be not a person who paid special attention to etiquette and law. Moreover, Wu Huifei had posthumously conferred the title of queen and it was not impossible to call Li Mao as his legitimate son to enthrone the East Palace. If they were unwilling to establish Li Mao, there would be so-called favorable people among the kings, why did they choose him?

After seeing off the angel, he strictly prohibited the whole family from celebrating. After barely suffocating until dinner, Li and Wei returned to the dormitory. The couple looked at each other for a long time, and finally Wei said softly: "Why, I'll go and invite my brother?"

"No, no, no," Li Xiang shook his head into a rattle without thinking, and then said with lingering fear, "Because Huangfu Weiming had served as Wang's friend, Wang Zhongsi said a few words to me when he was in the palace, and he was tricked to throw in that inexplicable note. Fortunately, my grandfather didn't believe it at all, otherwise I would have finished it at that time. If I had been the King of Zhong, my grandfather might not have remembered that matter, but now if someone brought up old accounts, it would be a huge trouble. If Wei Jian could continue to be promoted step by step by step by step by step by step, I would have at least a trust, but if his future was ruined, what else can you and I have to rely on?"

When Li was extremely pessimistic, Wei felt sad while being silent. The position of the prince came inexplicably, and she didn't even think about the glory of the mother's future in the world. Just when she wanted to persuade Li to go to bed, Li suddenly grabbed her hand and asked in a low voice: "I remember that Wei Jian's wife, that is, your sister-in-law, is the daughter of the late Duke of Chu Jiang Jiao?"

"You mean Jiang?" Wei frowned, and then said with some displeasure, "Jiang thought he was the daughter of Jiang Jiao, Duke of Chu, and was very arrogant. Later, after Jiang Jiao saw the crime, she could not change her jealousy. My brother never liked her. Moreover, she did not give birth to a son."

"Oh, don't you know that Li Linfu, the chief minister, is Jiang Jiao's nephew, and has always supported Concubine Hui and King Shou's most. Now Concubine Hui is dead, and King Shou has no strong support. I don't ask him to support me. At least he should not stumbling behind me. Over the years, the prime minister in the court has changed like a lantern. Many high-ranking officials have suddenly disappeared. Only he has made great achievements in the past ten years and has been moving very steadily step by step."

Wei hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to summon Wei Jian's wife Jiang. However, the couple tossed and turned at night, and couldn't sleep. They gradually started to whispering on their pillows again. Although the crown prince came suddenly and could not figure out the emperor's wishes, after the initial shock, the two finally developed a trace of longing for the future.

Although there was a case of Wei Bin being killed by a stick, the one Wei family most lacked is that in addition to Wei Jian, Wei family has three brothers. When he thought that if these relatives could reach a high position, the Wei family generals would be incredibly glorious, Wei finally felt warm and bit Li's ear and said something.

"Sanlang, your Majesty will do three, and you will do three too. Maybe this is the destiny of God, and you will dominate the world in the future."

Li froze all over, then he held his wife's hand tightly and whispered: "If you are rich and noble, don't forget each other."
