Records of the King of Xin'an County

The dim light left in the corner passed through the drape, and a vague silhouette was vaguely reflected in the field of vision.Wang Zixian said in a low voice: "I understand that you have concerns. You have always cared about the safety and happiness of your family members, and you do not want them to suffer any harm or encounter any crisis. However, Xuan Qi, you seem to take the dangers brought by power and strength into consideration. It’s too serious. Why don’t you think about it in reverse—if you don’t have these, you will be like a tiger with its claws and claws removed, and you can only be bullied by vicious dogs?”

Li Hui narrowed his eyes slightly, and then he continued: "Aren't King Pu's lineage and King Yue's lineage not humble enough now? Isn't it low-key enough? In order not to arouse the fear of the saints, they neither dared to take important real positions, nor You dare not enter into any marriages with real power, and you are far less comfortable and calm than other clans and relatives, and you have never offended anyone. But even so, as long as His Royal Highness King Pu and His Royal Highness King Yue are still around, you will still be someone else The coveted object is still unable to get rid of the traps and conspiracies."

"Think about it this time, if you hadn't happened to go to the Daci'en Temple and Master Xuanhui would testify for you, what would have happened to you? It's not enough to ruin your reputation. Once the important things are cleared out, it will be another treason case!! The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, after the King Yue's lineage has completely disappeared in Chang'an, how long will the King Pu's lineage survive?!" Although Wang Zixian's voice was low, it carried The awe-inspiring meaning is like a peerless sharp sword that has just been unsheathed, shining with an icy cold light.

"Xuan Qi, step back step by step. If you only think about building the city for defense and don't think about taking the initiative to attack, how can you defeat the enemy? Moreover, the enemy will never be so kind and allow us to build the surrounding city walls without any flaws. After that, let’s fight again—”

Li Hui recalled the vigilance and anxiety in his heart when he was framed by the court, and finally acquiesced to his words.Suddenly, he remembered the struggle and longing in his heart, and at the same time realized that he had indeed endured too much in order to protect himself.And these forbearances have been very effective until a few days ago, so he was completely confused.Let him think that as long as he endures like this, he will be safe and sound.

However, he has endured so far, what happened to him in the past two days? !I almost fell into the trap set by others, and I couldn't get out again!Thinking of this, his voice couldn't help becoming hoarse: "Zixian, being born as the son of my grandfather...isn't it something to be proud of being born as the grandson of my grandfather, the descendant of Emperor Taizong and Empress Wende? Why do we But it just became the prey of those with evil intentions?"

"Xuan Qi, do you want to be a prey or a hunter?" Wang Zixian held his hand tightly, turned over, and stared into his eyes in the dark, "If you have no strength, you and I Just like chess pieces on a chessboard, they can only be moved around involuntarily. Or unknowingly charge for others, or be caught in a tight siege and be attacked, or be regarded as an abandoned piece-such an involuntary life , such a mermaid life, you may be willing?!"

"..." Li Hui remained silent.

Wang Zixian approached him slowly, and stopped when his breath intersected.Through the dim light, the two looked at each other, as if they could see through all the emotions surging in each other's eyes - all the intense, worried, and dissatisfied emotions, and even the trust and care for each other, as well as a little hiding Emotions that are as hot as fire.

"Xuan Qi, I'm not reconciled. I'm not reconciled to seeing you trapped, I'm not reconciled to being helpless in everything, I'm not reconciled to not being able to avenge you, I am not reconciled to being able to solve all your enemies... I am not reconciled to watching you live Being so wronged, I can only bear it all the time!! What about you? Haven’t you ever been unwilling?! Tell me, Xuan Qi, you’ve never felt uncomfortable?! You’ve never wanted to do whatever you want and be free ?!"

His repeated questioning finally made Li Hui's calm expression gradually change.

He opened his eyes wide, and there was a cluster of flames faintly jumping in the dark eyes: "...No...I..." It seemed that a breath that had been suppressed in his chest was released, rushing forward violently, driving him The blood is boiling, and all the grievances and discomforts of the past and present are integrated into it——

"I'm not reconciled!!" That's right, if the two lives can only be spent in vain, how can he be reconciled? !He is the grandson of Emperor Taizong and Empress Wende! !He and his father and brother also flowed with the blood of the Tian family, so why did he have to undergo such training? !After being trapped in the Junzhou fiefdom in her previous life, she finally died in depression!Would he still be trapped in Chang'an in this life, and finally be exploited to death? !

He also yearned for freedom, he also yearned for high spirits, and he also yearned for the vast territory outside Chang'an! !He never wanted to be trapped in a cage!Whether it is Junzhou or Chang'an, it is too cramped for him!He wants to do whatever he wants and go wherever he wants!He wants to see all the scenery he has never seen before!He wants to experience everything that he didn't have the chance to experience in his previous life! !

As the depression in his heart erupted, those eyes suddenly became astonishingly bright, more radiant and alluring than the starlight in the sky.Wang Zixian stared down, unable to move his gaze away.

What charming eyes, his Xuan Qi, his A Hui, should look like this, instead of being restrained everywhere, depressed all the time, more and more painful, more and more difficult.

I really want to bow my head and kiss those eyes, I really want to get him completely—but, at this moment, I still can't!He didn't want any disgust to appear in these eyes, and he didn't want them to be dimmed because of him.There seemed to be a sigh in his heart, but Wang Zixian ignored the voice, pressed himself on Li Hui, and shared the same pillow with him with his head sideways.

"Over the years, I've always told myself 'can't, don't, don't'... only these words 'no' are in my heart." Li Hui smiled slightly, and didn't notice anything strange, but leaned against his face intimately, "I I don’t think I’m weak, I think I’m just compromising for peace in the future. But now that I think about it, it’s also a kind of weakness.”

"If 'can't, don't, don't' goes deep into the bone marrow, it will become 'dare not'. Once you start to 'dare not', then you can only let the mermaid go. People are swordsmen, I am fish, and the end will be again. How miserable?" After finishing speaking, he whispered, "Zixian, thank you for waking me up."

Hearing this, Wang Zixian raised the corners of his lips lightly: "Why do you need to thank me? Besides, you are just getting into a dead end, as long as you think about it, you will naturally know how to act. Contributions and disadvantages It is a good thing that we were suddenly awakened by the case. After all, after this case, we have not lost anything for the time being, but on the other hand, we have lost some people."

Li Hui shook his head and smiled wryly: "It's not difficult to deal with the tribute case. I already have some ideas. Maybe we will coincide with each other. But... how to do things in the future, I really haven't figured it out yet." In fact, he understood very well. There is only one way to go.But the person who dominates that road has always made him deeply jealous, and it is difficult to follow with peace of mind.However, he has no choice.

"Xuan Qi." Prince Xian paused, and then Fang asked, "Why do you distrust today's saints so much?"

Li Hui fell into silence again.He couldn't say that the Yue Palace and Pu Palace had a miserable fate in the previous life. Although there may be villains in it, but his uncle's ruthlessness in front of power has already chilled him?

Seeing that he didn't want to discuss it deeply, Wang Zixian was not in a hurry to get an answer, and said: "If we want to protect ourselves, we must take the initiative to use it for the saint, and we must let him use it very comfortably, and we are reluctant to let go. Now there is An Xingchang The princess and the Yang family are secretly making trouble, and the sage is suffering from the fact that no one can be trusted or used, if you take the initiative to express your willingness to be his sharp edge, he will definitely accept it."

"..." Thinking of the sage's previous actions of changing the state to the government and promoting his cronies, Li Hui also understood that, as an emperor in his prime, he did not want to continue to reuse the old ministers of the previous dynasty, but to establish a government that could fully Take orders from your own court.Only in this way can we plan and control everything like an arm; in this way, we can truly achieve the majesty of an emperor, and we can truly control Chang'an and the entire Tang Dynasty.

As a nephew, it was only logical that he took the initiative to share his uncle's worries.It is also natural to rush forward for him, become his sharp blade, and become his arrow cluster.However, he couldn't help thinking about the future—if Princess Anxing and the Yang family were destroyed, how would he deal with himself?Of course, he is not attached to power and status, and it is all right to retreat bravely, but will the saint believe him?

"Xuan Qi, don't think too much." Wang Zixian seemed to understand his hidden worries, "Today's sages are well-known, gentle and loving, and they even don't hesitate to keep the two elder brothers in Chang'an, showing the respectful attitude of brothers and friends. And his own generosity—presumably, if he was not deeply threatened, he would not make things difficult for his elder brothers and nephews at will. Prince Pu and Prince Yue's residence only need to restrain their own people and eliminate all enemies, and they can enjoy peace in peace. After a few more years, after all the elders have passed away, your brothers will become the clan, and there will be no more threats to the throne."

"You're right." Li Hui nodded slightly, "What's more, with Aunt Qinghe and Yue Niang here, it shouldn't be like—" It wouldn't be like a dead bird or a dead rabbit.Of course, at that time, he should have enough time and strong enough ability to make arrangements in advance.

The power and disputes that I wanted to avoid were still unavoidable in the end.It is also because he is too naive. He was born in the midst of disputes, so how could he avoid those conspiracies and calculations?Instead of blindly defending and retreating steadily, it is better to attack aggressively.At least, the saint wants to remove all threats more urgently than he does, so why doesn't he follow the trend openly?

Perhaps because of relaxation, Li Hui gradually felt sleepy.Last night Li Jing pestered him to drink with him, but he refused, drank a lot with him, and slept late.Moreover, at that time, I was thinking about the matter of the other courtyard of Yue Wang's mansion, and I never fell asleep.Now snuggled up with my best friends at home, I feel extremely safe.Physical and mental exhaustion gradually invaded his consciousness, causing him to slowly fall into sleep.

Just when the consciousness was hazy, the person on top of him seemed to move, as if worried about crushing him, he moved away gently.The familiar breath and body temperature went away, and he almost instinctively wanted to reach out to hold her back, calling Wang Zixian's name vaguely in his mouth.

Then, he seemed to hear a chuckle, and the familiar person approached again, something warm and moist stuck to his lips, and they separated after touching for a while.His thinking was already dull, but he didn't react, he was just worried about why the people next to him would leave.Just when he wanted to stay again, the body temperature that made him feel at ease and joy also approached him, and the regular and vague heartbeat rang in his ears——

Li Hui showed a faint smile and fell into a deep sleep.
