When Gao Miao saw Li Xian, he glanced over at him, hurriedly walked up to him, bowed and called out, but he did not continue, but glanced at Deng Cheng intentionally or unintentionally.
"Um."
As soon as Li Xian saw Gao Miao's actions, he knew that the matter was probably serious, and he would not ask in detail in front of Deng Cheng, so he made a noncommittal sound and waved his hand, signaling Gao Miao to step aside first, and then
He turned his attention to Deng Cheng again, and said after a while: "Gu is not a mean and ungrateful person. We have been together for a long time, and Manager Deng will know it. In this way, if Gu gives you 20% of the people, if they manage well, there will be more
With a heavy reward, is Manager Deng willing to work for me?"
"I am willing to do the hard work of a dog and a horse, but I don't dare to live with it. Please take back your life, Your Highness."
Deng Cheng was obviously an honest man. When he heard Li Xian's words, he immediately felt grateful, but he firmly refused Li Xian's gift.
Li Xian waved his hand with a solemn expression, stopping Deng Cheng's refusal, and said in a calm tone: "I have made up my mind, so there is no need for Manager Deng to refuse anymore. The matter is settled, but I still have a few explanations."
Steward Deng keeps this in mind. Firstly, Steward Deng established this business name on his own and has nothing to do with me. Secondly, the busy guy on the scene may or may not be able to help. Everything must be planned by Steward Deng himself. Thirdly,
, General Gu sent Lin Hu to cooperate with Manager Deng. Whenever there is something that cannot be handled, there is no need to go to Gu directly, just let Lin Hu come forward. Do you remember these three rules? "
"Yes, I will obey your orders and keep them in mind. I will not dare or forget them."
Although Deng Cheng is sincere, he is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very shrewd. As soon as he heard Li Xian's explanation, he already knew what Li Xian's intentions were.
I had no choice but to say "no", so I could only grit my teeth and agree.
"Well, just remember it. Go down and get ready. Everything should be done as soon as possible. We are waiting for your good news."
Li Xian was mindful of the news brought by Gao Miao, so he had no intention of harping on Deng Cheng. Seeing that Deng Cheng had expressed his stance, he gave an exhortation, with an obvious intention of expelling guests.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will do my best!" Deng Cheng knew that he was not qualified to participate in the confidential affairs of the Zhou Palace, so he dared not stay any longer. He hurriedly bowed in response and exited the room obediently.
"Your Highness, I have just received the news that more than ten ministers, including Yushi Lin and Yang Wu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, have jointly signed this chapter. They said that although Mr. Shangguan has been serving in the court for a long time and has little merit, he is, after all, an unworthy man.
Please give me a posthumous title of Mu, but it is difficult to match it. Is it straight or suitable? As soon as this book was published, the doctors of the Ministry of Rites argued over each other and couldn't agree on one, so it was difficult to reach a conclusion." As soon as he saw Deng Cheng exiting the room, Gao Miao stood up and stood up.
The governor's matter was of great importance, so how could he dare to neglect it? He hurriedly came to Li Xian's side and whispered the news he had received one by one.
What? What a Lin Qi, he dares to make his own opinions, you bastard! When Li Xian heard that Lin Qi had changed his book, he was immediately furious, and his face turned livid in an instant - the prince's side in the past few days
He made frequent moves, often meeting privately with officials from the Ministry of Rites, in order to give Shangguan Yi a resounding posthumous title. Naturally, his purpose was to use this to counter Empress Wu's attempt to usurp power. Although such an idea could be considered covert, it was difficult to achieve.
He could not hide it from the shrewd people in the court. Therefore, even though Li Hong had done a lot of work in private, the posthumous title was still unresolved. There were many disputes in the court. Of course, most people preferred the crown prince.
, although the matter has twists and turns, it is almost settled. However, as soon as Lin Qi and others get the book, things will change immediately, and Li Xian's pre-arranged plan is in danger of being broken. This makes
How could Li Xian not be angry?
It is not impossible to read this chapter, and it is indeed time to sing a dissent against Li Hong, but this is not the time to publish it - according to Li Xian's original plan, Lin Qi and other officials from King Lu's line should remain silent and let the prince
He and Empress Wu started a fight over the posthumous title. When the two sides were fighting hard to separate each other, let's go to this chapter. By then, things had already escalated. Neither Empress Wu nor Li Hong could stay out of the matter. The two were inseparable.
In the fight, the possibility of losing both sides is extremely high, and the reputations of both sides will be seriously damaged. In the end, in order to restrain Li Hong, Empress Wu will definitely try to transfer Li Xian back to the capital. In this way, Li Xian's shield will also be
It was there, but now it's good. The posthumous title can't be decided in the court, and there is no way to send it to Gaozong in Luoyang. After a long time, the matter was leaked. Empress Wu didn't have to do much on the other end. She only had to drag Gaozong to issue the edict first.
, the matter can only come to an end here. Obviously, with Lin Qi messing up like this, Li Xian's plot will most likely come to nothing.
You greedy waste, damn bitch! Li Xian cursed angrily in his mind, became angry, paced back and forth in the room, and suddenly realized that there was something fishy going on -
Although Lin Qi is an exaggerated person, he may not dare to act carelessly on such a major matter. Besides, even if Lin Qi dared to do it, he would not be able to mobilize all the ministers of King Lu's line without Li Xian's acquiescence.
In other words, this matter was most likely Li Xian's idea. Was it his intention? Was he intending to use this behavior to show his favor to the Empress Wu in order to seek the possibility of returning to Beijing?
Childish, really childish! When he thought of Li Xian's impulsive temper, Li Xian became a little angry. At this time, the dispute between Empress Wu and Li Hong had not yet become intense, and both sides had plenty of room for maneuver.
, a temporary truce is not impossible. If this is the case, there is no need for Empress Wu to let Li Xian, whom she has always disliked, return to Beijing to contain Li Hong. In this way, Li Xian has become a villain in vain, and he has not yet
If he can get even the slightest benefit, he will also have to suffer if Li Xian makes trouble. Apart from anything else, how can Li Hong, who has freed up his hands, be willing to let go of Li Xian who refuses to submit to him?
One pair of small shoes followed another. Even though Li Xian was not afraid, he was still troubled. Naturally, Li Xian did not want to see such a result. It was just that this situation was difficult to solve. Even though Li Xian had rich experience in political disputes, he could not do it for a while.
Even after a while it was difficult to come up with a remedy that would get the best of both worlds.
If you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust! Li Xian pondered for a long time, and already had an opinion in his mind. He stamped his feet bitterly, cursed secretly, waved his hand, and ordered loudly: "Prepare the car.
I want to enter the palace immediately!"
"Yes, I obey." Seeing that Li Xian's expression was not right, Gao Miao did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly accepted the promise, hurried out of the room, and went to arrange related matters without mentioning it. After a while,
After a panic, the large group of people from Prince Zhou's Mansion left the "Bake Village" and hurried toward the East Palace.
At the end of the afternoon, it was already past the time for lunch, but Li Hong still had no appetite at all. He sat dumbly for a few seconds, with a look of exhaustion that couldn't be concealed on his face. If it weren't for his eyes that occasionally
Even if you rotate it a bit, it looks like a clay sculpture or wood sculpture.
Li Hong was very annoyed, and not in an ordinary way. Over the years, Li Hong had suffered enough from Empress Wu's evil deeds of interfering in politics. Unfortunately, as a son of a man, even if he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to express it openly or even express his dissatisfaction.
The slightest expression could only be secretly resentful. This time, he finally planned a counterattack opportunity that could be put on the table, but he was intervened by Lin Qi and his group, and the already complicated situation was completely messed up.
It's a mess. How to clean up such a mess now makes Li Hong extremely annoyed.
"Your Highness, His Royal Highness the King of Zhou is asking for an audience outside the palace gate."
While Li Hong was meditating silently, a young eunuch hurried in from outside the palace, cautiously approached Li Hong, and reported in a low voice.
"Huh?" When he heard that Li Xian had arrived, Li Hong couldn't help but be stunned. He rolled his eyes a few times, as if he had thought of something, but he did not rush to express his position, but stood up.
After walking back and forth in the hall for a few steps, he glanced at Wang Dequan who was standing by and said in a deep voice: "Dequan, go and have a look. If he comes to chat, just say that I have rested and let him go."
Come again."
"Yes, I obey the order."
Wang Dequan respectfully agreed and turned around to leave the palace. But before he could take a step forward, Li Hong said "Wait a minute" from behind. He had to stop, turned back again, and bowed to wait for Li Hong.
of instruction.
"That's all, let him come in."
After hesitating for a long time, Li Hong decided to meet Li Xian in person. He waved his sleeves and gave instructions softly.
"promise."
Although Wang Dequan was dizzy by Li Hong's repeated remarks, he did not dare to say anything more. He could only respectfully accept his promise and hurried out of the hall. After a few moments, he accompanied Li Xian back.
In the palace.
"My brother, please see your brother, the prince."
As soon as he saw Li Hong, who was sitting upright a few steps back, Li Xian immediately rushed forward, saluted and said hello.
"No, my seventh brother hasn't been to my house for a long time. How can I be willing to come today?"
Li Hong smiled and raised his hand, and asked in a sarcastic and mocking tone.
Oh, these words sound sour. It seems that this guy has deep resentment in his heart. If he keeps holding it in like this, he might become a resentful woman! Li Xian has a very sharp mind, so how could he not hear that Li Hong
There was a hint of jealousy in his words, and he secretly despised Li Hong in his heart, but his face was filled with the brightest smile, and he answered with cupped hands: "So that the prince brother will know that I have made great achievements in martial arts recently, so that
I am so addicted to this that I have lost my mind and failed to come every day to say hello to the prince's brother. I feel ashamed and ashamed."
"Well, practicing martial arts is a serious matter. I am very pleased that the seventh brother can devote himself to it. As for whether to say hello or not, it is just a last minute thing and not worth mentioning. Of course, if the seventh brother is free,
You might as well come here more often for your brother's sake, so that you and I can have a discussion about anything. What do you think, seventh brother?" Li Hong waved his hand with a smile and replied thoughtfully.
"Of course, I have an important matter to discuss with the prince." Li Xian is a human being, so how could he not understand the almost obvious solicitation in Li Hong's words, but he didn't act like one?
Instead of politely declining like before, he agreed with a smile.
Li Xian's natural behavior immediately made Li Hong stunned. He couldn't figure out what kind of drama Li Xian was singing, and he lost his mind for a moment.
