[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 24 Queen 01

When everyone heard the words, they didn't feel a sense of relief, but became more worried.

Among the few people was Xiao Sanniang, who had learned medical skills from Grandpa Sun for many years, so she saw things much more profoundly than Li Hong and the others.

Before, she felt that her father's complexion was not quite right, but at that time everyone was more nervous about her mother's situation, so she didn't specifically ask her father about his recent health condition, who would have thought that she would get such a sudden negligence? Let her depressed result!

"Master, what do you mean...let daddy rest?" Little Sanniang asked Mr. Sun hesitantly.

Grandpa Sun nodded and said nothing more.

After all, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu is still young, and he is not like his father, His Majesty Li Er, who was drunk and lustful, and ended up taking drugs, which made Old Man Sun helpless.As long as His Majesty Li Xiaojiu takes good care of his body, even if his health is so poor, he will definitely live longer than his father...

Although Mr. Sun explained His Majesty Li Xiaojiu's current physical condition in detail, he repeatedly emphasized the word 'rest', and everyone probably understood what he meant.

For a while, most of the palace servants and servants in the palace went out with Mr. Sun to prescribe prescriptions, grab medicines, and decoct medicines.

Li Hong, brother and sister were left to wait on the comatose father.

Although according to Grandpa Sun's opinion, his father's life is not in danger, Li Hong is still full of gloom.

What he worries about is not only the physical condition of his father and mother, but also the political situation that is at a critical moment of reform.

A Niang has just experienced a dystocia, and her vitality has been seriously injured. She will definitely not be able to return to the court for a short time.And it's unavoidable that Dad can't look at the court while resting at this time...

So, will the opposition that has just been suppressed take advantage of the situation to revive?

Li Hong suddenly felt that his leaving was a little too selfish?

He has been the crown prince for so many years, and the power in his hands is not to be underestimated, but he did not hand over these powers to his second brother in time...

It must be very hard for the second brother to be the crown prince!

Those old foxes in the officialdom are not so easy to convince a new prince who has never been in power...

Although many times in the past, when he was sick, the second brother would always help him deal with government affairs without complaint, but the second brother never let him publicize these things to the outside world. Except for some confidants in the East Palace, almost no one knew about his second brother. In fact, his ability to govern is even better than him...

After thinking about it, Li Hong still felt very worried, and his face became paler.

Seeing that Li Hong's expression was not right, Xiao Sanniang hurriedly grabbed his hand and began to feel his pulse.

"Brother, you... don't think too much..." Xiao Sanniang checked Li Hong's pulse and found that he was overthinking, she hurriedly said: "Meditate, meditate... breathe..."

After Li Hong lived on the mountain, he practiced breathing qigong every day, and after a few months, the effect was very remarkable.

As soon as Xiao Sanniang chanted at this time, Li Hong hurriedly followed suit...

After about an incense stick, Li Hong's mood gradually calmed down.

"Brother, you can't fall down anymore, otherwise what shall we do?!" The little Sanniang glanced at the little radishes pointingly - the youngest sister is still a baby!

Li Hongda felt ashamed, his fair face blushed, and said: "Brother is wrong."

Once the Second Saint fell, the entire Eastern Capital would be leaderless.

Prince Li Xian, who was far away in Chang'an, only felt that the burden on his shoulders was getting heavier.

Originally, the second sage stayed in Luoyang, and Li Xian was in Chang'an to supervise the country. All the civil and military officials in the court had a sense of waiting and watching. Even Li Sanlang and other ministers who were appointed to the East Palace deliberately behaved not to get too close to him...

But when the news came that the two sages of the Eastern Capital were not hesitating at the same time, the atmosphere in Chang'an's court began to become a little delicate.

Some ministers even asked the prince to translate and annotate Han history when Li Xian ordered to compile and annotate the history books of the previous dynasty.

In this era, compiling history under imperial edict is the ultimate dream of every civil official. There are even unwritten rules stating that officials who have not compiled history books are not eligible to join the cabinet.

And the translation and annotation of historical books is a shortcut to fame that all literati flock to.

If the crown prince translates and annotates history books himself and succeeds, what does that mean?

This is to create public opinion!

Li Xian felt that what his aunt said was right: the government must control public opinion.

What is public opinion?

Public opinion is the voice of the people, but also the hearts of the people!

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

Therefore, in the previous life, A Niang wanted to organize the Beimen Scholars Think Tank, and in this life, A Niang wanted to run a newspaper and a bookstore. It is to safeguard the monarchy of the Tang Empire...

However, when the two saints were unable to control the government one after another, he, the prince, suddenly jumped out and named Donggong City with great fanfare. Is it really okay?

Li Xian read the paper carefully, and made a mark on the name of the person who submitted the letter, Shang Guanyi...

Shangguanyi...

Unexpectedly, you still jumped out...

Li Xian's face was as heavy as water, he put away the letter, picked up the letter his elder brother sent him from Luoyang two days ago, and read it carefully.

A few days later, His Majesty the Emperor of the Eastern Capital issued an edict, expressing that he and the Queen of Heaven were in conflict with the Holy Body, and Prince Xian had full power to handle military and state affairs.

At the same time as the imperial edict, there was a news that the second sage conferred the title of Lang Ming Chongyan, Lingtai, Qintian Supervisor, as a doctor of Zhongsan, and he was often summoned, and his holy favor was very prosperous.

After Li Xian heard the news, his face was as cold as ice, and he looked a bit like Zhou Guogong.

"Prince, Ming Chongyan is nothing to worry about..." The crown prince Xima Liu Nayan is the one who knows Li Xian's face the most among the important officials in the East Palace. Black face so far.

Everyone can tell that the crown prince doesn't like Ming Chongyan, but the Emperor and Empress dote on that man very much, and she doesn't even commit any crime for concealing that she is a descendant of the Ming family, and because of this, he raised his official position—— Since the establishment of the scientific examination system, it has almost never happened that the emperor personally recommends officials to recruit talents. This Ming Chongyan was fortunate enough to become a fifth-rank courtier!

No wonder the prince is so angry.

"There is no need to mention the matter of Ming Chongyan." Ever since he realized that Ming Chongyan was just a knife and a pawn in his father's hands, Li Xian's resentment towards Ming Chongyan has also dissipated a lot. .

This time this guy was suddenly promoted, Li Xian couldn't help showing his emotions, but it was just a subconscious behavior. After all, he was a person who hated him all his life. too easy.

However, now is not the time to be angry about a small person...

Moreover, that guy is not easy to deal with, my brother thinks highly of him, and even my cousin of the Wu family has a two-point friendship with him... If you don't die from a snake, you will suffer from it!

Li Xian breathed out secretly, and said to the important ministers of the Eastern Palace next to him: "Since the Second Sage has decreed that Gu has the full power to handle state affairs, Gu Zi should do his best, Wang Gong and others will help you with all your strength, and you must not let the Second Sage disappointment!"

"I will obey the order." Liu Nayan, Wei Chengqing and others all promised loudly.

In April of the ninth year of Xianqing, Prince Li Xian supervised the scholars of Chongwenguan to compile the 47-volume manuscript of the history of the Southern Dynasties in Chang'an.

The Ersheng was overjoyed after reading the manuscript, and issued an edict to praise the prince, bestowing [-] paragraphs, and rewarding all the ministers who participated in the compilation of the book.

As for Xiao Li Xianggong who went to Dongdu to offer books, he was temporarily kept.

Anyway, there was Changsun Quan and the others guarding Chang'an, so Li Sanlang didn't feel worried, but after seeing Li Hong, he lost his composure a little.

"Too...Lang Jun is well..." Li Sanlang saw that Li Hong's temperament had changed drastically, and he didn't dare to come forward to recognize him.

Li Hong had a warm smile on his face, but his actions didn't match his expression, he seemed a little anxious, he almost stepped forward and grabbed Li Sanlang's hand, saying: "Li Xiang, it's good if you come... ..."

Li Sanlang's expression couldn't help changing when he heard the words: "What's wrong?"

Anyway, he had taught Li Hong for quite a long time, and he was quite familiar with Li Jiadalang's temperament. If nothing serious happened, this His Highness could completely keep his emotions and anger indifferent...

After Li Hong pulled Li Sanlang to sit up, he gave a wink to make all the attendants back down, then he restrained his smile and said: "In the current situation, I really can't find anyone to talk to..."

Li Sanlang took a careful look at the young man's complexion. Seeing that the other party should be in good health, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he thought about his words carefully. Li Sanlang frowned slightly and asked, "Da Lang, are you worried?" The emperor's condition?"

In fact, when Li Hong mentioned the current situation, the only ones Li Sanlang could think of were the emperor who was currently supporting the Eucharist and the prince Li Xian who was in charge of the empire's political affairs.

The latter ability, Li Sanlang felt that there was nothing to worry about, but the former...

Didn't it mean that the emperor would be fine as long as he rested for a while?

"My minister had an audience with the Emperor yesterday, and there was nothing wrong..." Li Sanlang said doubtfully.

No, but Li Hong shook his head.

"Father has been suffering from severe headaches for the past few days, and can hardly see at night..."

If it weren't for someone close to Li Hong, he would never have known these secrets, yet he told him so easily...

It seemed that this was acquiesced by the Second Saint.

Li Sanlang's brows became more and more tight, and he said after a while: "I don't know what can I do for you?"

Seeing that Li Sanlang guessed the reason why he told him this confidential matter so quickly, Li Hong couldn't help but smile in relief.

"Aniang didn't say anything, she just hoped that Li Xiang could help Erlang..."

Li Sanlang couldn't help raising the corners of his eyes when he heard the words, he obviously had a pair of bewitching peach blossom eyes, but it looked like it made people tremble.

"Even Dalang, do you feel that the humble official is not dedicated enough to assist the crown prince?"

Li Jiaerlang is not a simple character, he can hold his breath, he can bend and stretch, and he is quick and accurate at critical moments, which is completely different from Li Hong's tolerant and benevolent temperament.

Li Sanlang thought that even at Li Xian's current age, he couldn't be so decisive and vicious!

Such a powerful His Royal Highness, why should he join in to make the cake ╮(╯_╰)╭

Unexpectedly, the Queen of Heaven and Da Lang, who are eager to love their son/brother, would think that he is unwilling to help the prince...

The author has something to say: I am considering whether to make Erlang the emperor =. =

If Xiao Saburo, that foodie, becomes the emperor, he will definitely be very pitiful...
