"Your Highness, His Highness King Lu has arrived."
In the central military tent, Li Xian sat cross-legged on the carpet, meditating silently. The expression on his face kept changing, as if he was thinking deeply. Suddenly the door curtain moved, and he saw Ling Zhong walking in from outside.
The voice reported.
"Um."
Before leaving Luoyang, Li Xian had informed Li Xian of his itinerary. The reason why he stayed in Lantian today was just to wait for Li Xian to come and see him. At this time, he heard that Li Xian had arrived. Although Li Xian's face was calm, his eyes were full of excitement.
There was a quick flash of determination, and after a slight utterance, he stood up suddenly and strode out of the big tent. When he saw Li Xian, who was dressed in a dusty suit, he was leading a dozen guards and standing outside the camp gate.
"Brother Six."
Li Xian walked quickly to the gate of the camp, smiled and said hello.
"Seventh brother, your camp is well built. You have the posture of a general. Okay, hahaha..."
After not seeing each other for more than a month, Li Xian was obviously much thinner, but he was in good spirits. When he saw Li Xian's face, he immediately laughed and started chatting.
"Brother Six, please come inside!"
After Li Xian laughed with him, he waved his hand and said hello, and welcomed Li Xian into the camp. After talking and laughing, he entered the Chinese army tent. The two brothers sat cross-legged on the carpet casually, with their own personal guards.
They were busy serving the newly brewed tea, and then each retreated, leaving only the two brothers sitting opposite each other in the big tent.
"Seventh brother, this expedition is dangerous, and we have many enemies and we are outnumbered. As a brother, I really don't approve of seventh brother taking this risk!" After the guards retreated, Li Xian put away the smile on his face and sighed.
He spoke with a solemn tone and a solemn expression.
Although Li Xian's words contained a hint of jealousy, he was generally more concerned about Li Xian's safety, and he really didn't want Li Xian's powerful help to slip up, especially in this delicate situation in the capital.
, Li Xian naturally hopes that Li Xian can help him make plans. Li Xian knows this idea very well, but there is a reason why Li Xian cannot retreat from this battle, and it is impossible for Li Xian's ideas to make it easier.
, and was even more worried that there were many things involved, and there were many things that could not be explained to outsiders. Li Xianshi did not want to talk more about this matter, so he smiled and replied: "Brother Six, don't worry, I will have my own sense of propriety when I go here, and I won't do anything wrong."
If something goes wrong, he will surely return triumphantly within a few months, but Sixth Brother may encounter many difficulties in court, so he must be careful."
"Humph, that fellow is bullying others too much. I'm not a fool. I'll read the songbook while I'm on the donkey. I'll wait and see."
When the situation in the DPRK was mentioned, Li Xian became a little angry - since Li Xian left Beijing, without Li Xian as a lubricant, the conflict between the prince and Li Xian openly broke out.
Although it has not reached the point of endless war, the disputes over court affairs have suddenly increased a lot. Due to the relationship between each other's status and strength, Li Xian is undoubtedly in a passive defensive situation. He has been in court several times.
Although the loss cannot be said to be huge, the feeling of being suppressed is extremely uncomfortable.
"Well, it's hard for Sixth Brother in the capital, and it's just as hard for Little Brother in Luoyang. Hey, Sixth Brother is already aware of the changes in Little Brother's marriage, so Little Brother won't say more. Now the Queen Mother is looking forward to Sixth Brother's marriage with her.
The prince brother is going to make a fuss. If the fuss gets serious, I'm afraid..." Li Xian's face turned gloomy, he shook his head and sighed with emotion, his expression was quite depressed.
"Seventh brother, don't worry, I know what's right for you. Let that bastard be proud for a few days. When seventh brother returns victorious, I will never let him go!" Li Xian's expression changed when he heard Li Xian talk about Empress Wu's domineering attitude.
He became gloomy, and after a moment of silence, he answered in a low voice.
"The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop. This matter may not be settled by just giving in. Brother Six doesn't know, but my younger brother encountered something today..." Li Xian shook his head and spoke in a serious tone about what happened at the soup kitchen of "Deng Kee Company"
He described the incident in detail. At the end, he sighed solemnly: "Brother Prince is a tough man by nature. Now that he has made up his mind, he will definitely not end without results. If he stops it, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble."
That’s it!”
"The thief is so brave! He can't be spared alone!"
Although Li Xianer had a lot of retribution, he rushed to Lantian today and really didn't know about the conflict in the porridge shed. When he heard this, he immediately became angry, slapped his thigh, and cursed in a hateful voice.
"Sixth brother Mingjian, the prince brother has chosen the right opportunity to come to the younger brother. He just doesn't want to see the younger brother see his merits on the battlefield." Li Xian had already decided to give the prince a head-on blow, so he changed his usual attitude.
He Xinni's warm swallowing water, step by step, incited the anger in Li Xian's heart.
"Seventh brother, don't worry. With brother Wei here, you should not let the thieves run rampant. I will take care of this matter alone. I want to see what tricks that guy can do!" After being provoked by Li Xian, the strong-minded man
Li Xian couldn't bear it any longer, so he waved his hands in anger and cursed hatefully.
"I can trust what Sixth Brother said. In fact, I already have a way to deal with it, but..." Seeing that the heat was almost over, Li Xian was ready to move on to the main drama, so he pretended to hesitate.
Li Xian's appetite.
"It's just a joke. Seventh brother just says what he has to say. Is it because he can't believe that we are brothers?" Li Xian brushed his sleeves impatiently, glanced at Li Xian angrily, and spoke with displeasure.
said one voice.
"Sixth brother doesn't know something. This little brother's plan is extremely dangerous. It's too much to go too far. If things go too far and become too big, I'm afraid my mother will have the opportunity to get involved. Once this happens, both sides will suffer. Little brother
I'm really worried. If Brother Six is willing to help, this matter may be somewhat certain of success." Li Xian sighed with a grimace and replied worriedly.
"That's all, just because I'm afraid of you, the seventh brother will come up with any plans. You and I will have a good discussion, and we must first maintain a balanced balance of power." Li Xian was thinking about what was far away in his heart.
Empress Wu of Luoyang also had deep fears. Seeing what Li Xian said at this time, she knew that Li Xian did not want to kill the prince. Although she was a little unwilling to do so, she had no choice, so she took a deep breath and gave a
promise.
"Sixth brother can think so, I feel relieved. Sixth brother, please see, this person is the key!" What Li Xian wanted was Li Xian's promise. Seeing that he had spoken, he felt relieved.
The young man dipped his fingers into the tea and wrote his name on the small table in front of him.
"Is it him? This..."
Li Xian tilted his head curiously, and when he saw the name, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Yes, he is this person. This matter is important. Before it happens, I would like to ask Sixth Brother not to leak anything. I have prepared relevant evidence and will have someone send it to Sixth Brother later. Sixth Brother can first
Let the prince brother know about this matter. If he is willing to stop all activities, then let it go. If not, then the fish will die and the net will be broken. I think the prince brother is wise and knows how to choose." Li Xian raised his hand and stopped Li Xian from shouting.
He had the urge to mention this person's name and explained with a cold expression.
"Well..." Li Xian lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head, looked at Li Xian and said: "Since the seventh brother knew that this person was evil, why didn't he take advantage of the situation? Furthermore, why should we deal with this matter?
If you can do it with your own hands, seventh brother can do it by himself."
Why? The reason is very simple. If it weren't for the oriole of Empress Wu, Li Xian wouldn't be afraid of betraying the prince at all. However, the prince was aware of Li Xian's weakness, so he planned to take advantage of Li Xian.
When an attack was launched while on an expedition, it was obvious that if Li Xian came forward to hand this matter over to the crown prince, it would be difficult for the crown prince to have too many scruples. However, if Li Xian stepped forward, it would be different. The prince's scruples would all turn out to be the same.
It's completely different.
"Mother!"
Li Xian had a lot of worries in his heart, and he didn't want to explain more, so he curled up the corner of his mouth and said two words.
"That's it, let's just settle it. This matter is important. We need to make preparations for my brother to have a good life. Without further ado, I will go back to the capital now. The military situation is dangerous. Seventh brother should be careful and don't be greedy for credit.
, I am in the capital looking forward to the early triumphant return of my seventh brother!" Thinking of Empress Wu's ruthless methods, Li Xian couldn't help feeling depressed, and had no further thoughts. He smiled bitterly and stood up.
, mentioned something to Li Xian worriedly.
"Sixth brother, don't worry. I won't make fun of my family and my life. However, the situation in the capital is difficult, and everything is maintained by sixth brother." Li Xian stood up, bowed to Li Xian, and said sincerely.
"Don't worry, Seventh Brother. You have a sense of responsibility for your brother. I'm going to say goodbye. Seventh Brother, don't send me away." Li Xian is an impatient person. Once he has concerns about something in his heart, he won't be able to sit still for a quarter of an hour. After explaining the situation,
He raised his feet and walked outside the tent. The impatient look immediately made Li Xian's heart sink slightly, but he didn't say anything more and just silently sent Li Xian outside the camp gate.
"Seventh brother, let's go back. I'll leave first for you. When the day comes for your seventh brother's triumph, I'll prepare some wine for you to celebrate!"
Outside the camp gate, Li Xian got on his horse, threw a few words in his hands, and then led a group of his men away on horseback.
Hey, what an impatient guy, it seems that the court is going to be troubled! Looking at Li Xian's back as he hurried away, Li Xian shook his head with a wry smile, a feeling of sadness quietly welling up in his heart, just because
He knew very well that Li Xian would most likely not act according to his instructions and would definitely take this opportunity to have a falling out with the prince. This was obviously not the result Li Xian wanted to see. Unfortunately, Li Xian did not
I'm also very helpless - no matter how bad the situation in the capital will be, it's still better than Li Xian's side being uprooted, right? As for how it will end in the future, we can only wait until after this battle to discuss...
