Chapter 92: And kiss

In the distance, the voices of Li Huai and Li Changle calling for help were loud and clear. Pei Ji'an surrounded the emperor to help, he thought he was escorting him, turned his head, and found that Li Chaoge was not there at all. Pei Ji'an panicked inexplicably, and quickly asked, "Where is Princess Sheng Yuan?"

The crowd was crowded in a bright place, surrounded by layers of soldiers, shouting and shouting, no one remembers Li Chaoge. Pei Ji'an's face sinks, and he squeezes out the crowd with great effort, wanting to go back and look for Li Chaoge. Li Changle met with the emperor and hurriedly shouted: "Brother Pei, what are you doing?"

Long Sun Yan grabbed Pei Ji'an, lowered his voice and shouted: "Are you crazy? Everyone is here now to **** you, if you are not there, how will you explain it afterwards?"

"But Princess Sheng Yuan is gone..."

Long Sun Yan couldn't understand Pei Ji'an's thoughts, he? He looked at Pei Ji'an incredulously: "Is she there, what does it matter to you? Your fiancee is Princess Guangning!"

Pei Ji'an is going to leave? Zhang Sunyan pulled him? Don't let him, the two people saw the saw room? The water pavilion behind him suddenly became radiant. A gust of wind blew, and the shaky wick suddenly became stable, and the river lamp in the lake seemed to be called by some kind of call. It rose in the air and slowly soared into the air.

The river lantern hovered high and low on the water pavilion, and everyone could see clearly that a woman on the eaves was fighting with a cat. Because the light became brighter, the black cat's movements were completely exposed, and the advantage disappeared. The battle situation quickly reversed. The black cat pounced on Li Chaoge several times, but was stopped by Li Chaoge with a sword. One person and one cat are entangled on the roof, and a bright moon hangs high behind them. Large and small river lights are floating in the air. This scene is extremely fantastic and has an indescribable beauty.

The cat demon bowed his waist, suddenly exerted force, and rushed towards Li Chaoge. Li Chaoge's sword moves changed, and the cold blade flipped, reflecting a cold moonlight. Both Li Chaoge and Black Cat made a full blow, and Li Chaoge was caught on the arm, and Black Cat was also stabbed with a sharp sword.

The crowd who were still busy taking refuge just now all raised their heads and looked at the eaves, completely forgot to react, even the emperor's queen couldn't help but look back. Li Chaoge and the black cat passed by. The black cat gave a painful cry, purring in his throat. Its claws were planed on the eaves, and it seemed to want revenge. However, the floating river lights all around illuminated the eaves. There were no dead ends. The black cat lost its concealment advantage and could only scream fiercely and jumped off the eaves. Fleeing quickly.

Li Chaoge originally wanted to chase, but just after the action, a sharp pain came from her arm, and her footsteps couldn't help but pause for a moment. Li Chaoge forcibly endured it. She was planning to hold on for a while and wait for the black cat to be captured before treating the wound, but at this time, the river lantern floating in the air seemed to have lost its support. There was a splash of water.

There was no light to illuminate, and the eaves returned to darkness again. Li Chaoge was speechless, knowing that he couldn't catch up like this, so he could only regretfully jump off the roof. As soon as she landed, Bai Qianhe and Ma Linlang quickly gathered around: "Princess, how are you doing?"

"It's okay." Li Chaoge moved his wrist, and Qianyuan Jian was sheathed. She looked the same as before. Ma Linlang remembered seeing the black cat catch Li Chaoge? He asked quickly: "Princess, are you injured? Does the injury matter?"

Li Chaoge shook his head, and said lightly: "It's just a cat scratching, and it will be fine in a few days. The saint and queen in front are waiting for?, let's go back to life first."

The emperor was frightened by the assassin just now and hurriedly wanted to return to the palace, but when he saw the battle between Li Chaoge and the black cat, the emperor felt inexplicably safe, so he didn't rush to leave. The emperor looked at Li Chaoge and asked, "Chaoge, where is the black cat?"

"Escaped." Li Chaoge said calmly, "but it was stabbed by me. After dawn, following the blood stains, you will be able to catch it soon."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief. He remembered the scene he saw just now and asked: "Did you hurt yourself?"

"No." Li Chaoge said without changing his face, when someone next to him suddenly knocked on Li Chaoge's arm. He? This? It happened to knock on Li Chaoge's wound. Li Chaoge's eyebrows jumped, and he couldn't help showing pain.

Li Chaoge couldn't bear to look at his side and cursed, "Are you sick?"

Gu Mingke didn't know when he appeared next to Li Chaoge. He? Holding a folding fan in his hand, he glanced at Li Chaoge unhurriedly: "Didn't you say it was not hurt."

Li Chaoge resisted, and said, "The cat scratches it, and it's not an injury. Could it be that you were caught by a cat? Do you still want to call an imperial physician?"

Without a word, Gu Mingke took the folding fan and knocked towards Li Chaoge near his shoulder. This? This was where she was caught by the black cat last time. Li Chaoge immediately went to hide, but Gu Mingke still knocked him straight. Gu Mingke didn't know what trick he used, and it was extremely painful to knock on it. Li Chaoge couldn't hold back a "hiss" sound, she was about to draw her sword at the time, trying to fight Gu Mingke to death and life. Seeing that Bai Qianhe was wrong, he quickly grabbed Li Chaoge: "Princess, calm down! Gu Shaoqing is also for your own good."

Even if Bai Qianhe didn't learn and know nothing, she could guess that Li Chaoge chose to fight the cat demon in the dark at first, and the river lamp suddenly floated in the air behind her to reverse the situation. If this is Li Chaoge's handwriting, she didn't have to suffer before, so obviously, the river lantern floating in the air was not what Li Chaoge did.

It's not Li Chaoge, it can only be Gu Mingke. Bai Qianhe had no evidence, but he was inexplicably afraid of Gu Mingke.

He always feels that this is not easy personally.

Bai Qianhe stopped Li Chaoge who was walking away. For some reason, he suddenly felt a chill across his hand. Bai Qianhe lowered his consciousness and let go. Fortunately, Li Chaoge had calmed down and stopped thinking about fighting Gu Mingke. Bai Qianhe raised his head and glanced at him, and saw that the emperor's queen was surrounded by everyone, the guards were like an enemy, the palace maid trembling, Gu Mingke stood on one side with her sleeves down, his face calm, graceful, and no mood swings could be seen.

It seemed that the coldness Bai Qianhe felt just now was just an illusion. Bai Qianhe secretly said with a strange cry, put his hands together and pretended to be an eunuch, and retracted behind Li Chaoge again.

The emperor's heart is a bit complicated. He? How could he not see that Bai Qianhe was not a servant. Just now Bai Qianhe pulled Li Chaoge and the emperor didn't care about it. On the contrary, Gu Mingke knocked on Li Chaoge several times? The emperor felt that it was more serious.

Li Chaoge doesn't like being too close to other people, and occasionally runs away from her. I heard that Gu Mingke is also cold-tempered, he doesn't like noise or noise. But just now, Li Chaoge said that he was not injured, and Gu Mingke directly used a fan to pierce Li Chaoge, but Li Chaoge did not hide. This is an instinctive reaction and cannot be faked.

Although Bai Qianhe stretched out his hand to hold Li Chaoge, it was the cooperation between his teammates, and there was no difference between men and women. However, the interaction between Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke was very problematic.

The emperor didn't see Gu Mingke and Li Chaoge many times at the same time, but every time they saw each other, the relationship between them would advance much more than the last time. The emperor couldn't help frowning, could it be that Li Chaoge was really tempted?

The emperor could see how the Queen of Heaven could have missed it. The queen’s eyebrows were hidden in the flickering lights, she couldn’t see her expression, and said, “Well, I’ve been tossing for a long time today. The saint and the prince are tired. Go back. Chaoge.”

Li Chaoge immediately clasped his fists: "The son is here."

"The mere cat demon, dare to make trouble at the banquet. The cat demon is the sole responsibility of you. In the next few days, the forbidden army and the sixteen guards will be dispatched with you, and you must kill the cat demon as soon as possible."

Li Chaoge said nothing to lead the command: "The sons and ministers obey the orders, and will not disappoint the saint queen."

After the queen gave the guards of the palace gate and the imperial army to the singer of Li Chao, the expressions of several courtiers changed at that time. Since ancient times, whoever holds the access control in his hand is the winner of the coup. The Queen actually handed over both the two major military powers to the singer of Li Chao, retreating to control the court, and entering the city to kill the enemy. This power is too great.

Even the prince did not get this much power. The Queen's favor with Princess Sheng Yuan is too much.

Senior officials and Xungui have intermarried with each other for many years, and the relationship has long been tangled, and I am among you. At this moment, the courtiers quietly looked at their heirs, and undercurrents surged in the silence.

The emperor and the queen were shocked, and they were escorted back to Ziwei Palace to rest. Li Chaoge and the other princes and princesses sent the emperor's reply to the palace. The emperor leaned on the collapse, while the maid holding an ice cloth bag slowly relieved the pain on the emperor's forehead. Sitting on the side of the cave, the Queen of Heaven looked at the appearance of the emperor, and frowned deeply: "Sage, do you want to send an imperial doctor?"

The emperor closed his eyes wearily, and waved his hand weakly: "No need, the imperial doctors are all the same things back and forth, I am tired of listening. I have tried acupuncture, moxibustion, and medicine, but none of them have it. The effect is that I have to endure it in the end. I'm tired, let me rest for a while."

The diva should be. The prince and his wife, Li Chaoge, Li Huai and others stood in the hall with heavy faces. Li Xu and Li Zhen did not leave either. They all looked at the emperor worriedly at this moment. Outside, there were still a few close ministers standing.

The emperor lay down for a while, feeling that the pain in his head eased a little, and said: "It's getting late today, and there are still cats and monsters in the city? You are not safe to go out of the palace? You will stay in the palace today, right? ."

In addition to the prince and Li Changle, Li Chaoge, Li Huai and others have mansions outside the palace and do not usually live in the palace. The emperor said, they have no objection to these children, and they should say: "Thank you, saint."

Li Chaoge has no objection to this. Anyway, she is going to search the cat monster tonight, and most of them can't sleep, no matter where she is.

There is a place in the palace, so it doesn't matter how many people live. It’s just a sudden arrangement? There are so many princes and princesses, and there are several couples among them. It will take a while to prepare for the palace. The emperor was unwell. It was a good time to fulfill his filial piety. Both Li Xu and Li Huai said that they would serve the emperor tonight. This should be the responsibility of the prince, but the prince couldn't help coughing when he spoke. The emperor was uncomfortable and said: "I have a queen to take care of me. I don't need you. You all go back. The prince is weak and can't work hard. The prince will go back to take care of the prince and don't let the prince get sick."

The princess should be immediately. The princess felt a little pity in her heart. The emperor was ill. This is a good time to show her filial piety, but the prince's health is not up to date. But fortunately, the emperor didn't let the prince take care of his illness, nor did he keep other people. No one fell well, and it was a tie.

Perhaps it was not necessarily a tie. None of the three princes benefited, but Li Chaoge took the military power. Had Li Chaoge not been a woman, the princess would have doubted that Li Chaoge wanted to fight for the throne.

The emperor issued an order to expel guests, and the prince led the other princes and princes, and Xiaoxin retired. After leaving the house, Li Chaoge arched his hands to the other brothers and sisters and said, "Everyone, go slowly, I'm going to search for the cat demon, not on the same road with you. I'll go one step first."

The crown prince and the king of Wu naturally remembered that the queen gave the imperial army and the mansion soldiers to Li Chaoge, and the emperor acquiesced. At this moment, they both looked at their energetic sister, and their hearts were really complicated.

The prince coughed a few times and whispered to Li Chaoge: "I have a second sister. I, my brother, can't hold up the overall situation. Instead, I am ashamed of relying on my sister for protection."

Li Chaoge smiled and said: "The prince is the foundation of a country, and there is no room for any mistakes. I can do all the rough work of fighting and killing, and the prince can only concentrate on governing the country."

Upon hearing these words, the three princes present smiled with different expressions on their faces.

After Li Chaoge finished speaking, she parted ways with the others. She went to the gate of the palace to dispatch soldiers and arrange patrols. Mo Linlang and Bai Qianhe were waiting? At the gate of the palace, seeing Li Chaoge, Mo Linlang hurried up and said in a low voice: "Princess, before leaving the palace, Gu Shaoqing told me that the cat will not appear tonight, and the princess does not need to stay. Just go back and heal."

Why did Li Chaoge think about him? If he said he would go back. Li Chaoge's expression remained unchanged and said, "Don't worry about him? First patrol and check the black cat."

Mo Linlang wanted to persuade her again, Bai Qianhe grabbed her and shook his head secretly.

The emperor queen asked Li Chaoge to capture the cat demon. Li Chaoge couldn't do nothing and just go back to sleep. Even if the cat demon really doesn't appear tonight, Li Chaoge has to behave.

Sure enough, Li Chaoge returned to the palace to rest after almost a patrol. Li Chaoge's bedroom was still Dechang Palace. After she was familiar with changing clothes and bathing, and then sent the palace maid out, she sat on the cave and began to heal her injuries.

She came back today not to rest, let alone Gu Mingke's words, but to detoxify.

She thought that the cat demon's toxin had been dealt with last time, but unexpectedly, this kind of poison was far more stubborn than she thought. The poison seems to be resolved, but once the True Qi is mobilized, it will recur.

Li Chaoge couldn't help but feel suspicious. What kind of poison is this? Ordinary cat demon hasn't lived for thousands of years, can really cultivate this? Is it such a powerful demon poison?

Li Chaoge thought that it would take a lot of effort, but what was strange was that when she was running Zhen Qi, she found that the meridians were unimpeded, and most of the demon poison that had remained before was also melted away. Li Chaoge originally expected it to take three hours, but now, she put down her hands in less than a quarter of an hour, and she was surprised.

Where is her poison? Who solved it for her?

Li Chaoge was puzzled. In this way, the time for detoxification was greatly shortened, and Li Chaoge freed up a lot of time out of thin air. She glanced at the night outside, she was bored and could only sleep.

I don't know why, this? Li Chaoge slept extremely securely. In the dream, there seemed to be cranes humming, clouds, mountains and fog, she was walking? In the vast white mist, every breath was washed by pure aura. Until waking up, Li Chaoge still had the sense of tranquility in his body.

Li Chaoge got up, changed her clothes, and was about to go to the court. The court lady who sent the letter ran over and said, "Princess Sheng Yuan, the queen sent an order, saying that the saint is unwell today, and the court has been cancelled."

On July 14, the emperor hosted a banquet in Shangyang Palace to entertain the Tubo envoys, not wanting to encounter the cat demon. The emperor was frightened, confined to bed to recuperate, and stopped for three days.

In the imperial city, everyone has different opinions about the emperor's illness. The emperor’s health became more and more obvious. Last year, the emperor could still try his best to put on a dress. Now, he doesn’t even have the strength to cover up. Everyone knows that the change of imperial power is right in front of them.

In the East Palace, Li Shan finished the medicine and handed it to the princess. The waiter who was waiting on the side immediately stepped forward and brought water to the prince to clean his hands.

The young master of the prince asked: "The old minister has not seen the prince for a long time, these days, how good is your highness?"

Li Shan contained a candied date and suppressed the bitter taste of his tongue. He heard the words and smiled bitterly: "It's still the same. The troubled young teacher is worried for me. I have been enlightened by the virtuous person, but I can't handle the political affairs. I am really ashamed of you. master."

The Taifu, Taishi, and Taibao are called the Three Gongs, and the Prince Young Master, the Prince Shaofu, and the Prince Shaobao are auxiliary officials. They are called the Three Young Masters, and they are all responsible for teaching and guiding the prince. Later, the three masters and three young masters gradually became a kind of honorary title, but Li Shan was established as the prince long ago. Even if the three masters had not really taught the prince, they have always accumulated some friendship with the dynasty over the years.

The prince was honest and kind, and courteous and virtuous. The emperor didn't like the prince's cowardice, but several old officials liked the prince's temperament very much. Among them, Taifu Cao, Shaoshi Xu and Li Shan have the closest relationship and often go to and out of the East Palace. Li Shan asked: "I have had repeated illnesses this year and I rarely go out of the palace. I don't know how the Taifu is doing? Has the leg disease recovered?"

Last year, when he was helping the ghosts, the descendants of the Cao family were not filial and brought Li Gui home. Taifu Cao’s old ailments disappeared in one day. Taifu Cao was happy, and went out to walk in the garden. He never thought of breaking his leg. A young man who breaks his leg can be healed after lying down for a few months, but Mr. Cao is very old, and breaking his leg at this age is really not good news.

There was a sigh on Xu Shaoshi’s face. He didn’t go into details, and said lightly, “Tao Taifu was at ease in the mansion to heal his wounds. The last time I visited Cao Gong, the Taifu said that it’s impossible to teach the prince in my life. Regret. It's just that you can't worry about it? Your Royal Highness?, Your Highness?, you can't live up to the Taifu's expectations. You must get better."

When Li Shan saw Xu Shaoshi avoid it, he probably knew something in his heart. Taifu Cao really had the righteousness to teach with Li Shan? Li Shan was so embarrassed that he choked up and said: "It is also lucky to be alone to learn from Cao Gong."

After Li Shan finished speaking, his emotions fell into a trough, which could not be relieved for a long time. Seeing that the prince was so sentimental, Master Xu couldn't help sighing inwardly.

The prince was indeed sincere and kind, but it was too sad for the spring and autumn. No wonder the emperor and the queen like this kind of character.

The Prince Young Master suddenly changed his tone and whispered: "Prince, the minister has something to say to the prince alone. Can the prince hold back?"

Seeing that the prince's young teacher was righteous, Li Shan guessed him? There was something important to say, so he motioned to all the people who served him to go out. The princess looked around and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Li Shan?: "The princess is not a foreigner, so the young teacher can just say it."

When it comes to the position of the prince princess, it will be ruined as well as the East Palace. The whole family is deeply bound to the prince, but anyone with a normal mind will never half-hearted. The young master of the prince glanced at the princess, without comment, and said: "Prince, your majesty? It has been three days since the imperial court. For these three days, all the affairs of the court will be determined by the queen, and even the jade seal will be kept by the queen. The Sixteen Guards Talisman was held in the hands of Princess Sheng Yuan. For a few days, Princess Sheng Yuan frequently deployed troops and caught the cat demon all over the city. Your Royal Highness?, how do you think about this?"

Although Li Shan has been ill for a few days, it is not that he does not ask foreign affairs. He has been the prince for ten years, and he is a bit gentle, but he is not without political sense. The emperor was seriously ill, the queen took control of power, the marshal of soldiers and horses changed, everything revealed a strong breath of rain and wind.

If Li Chaoge were a prince, now Li Shan would have been unable to sit in the East Palace. But she was just a princess, and although Li Shan felt dangerous, she did not get into trouble day and night. The emperor did not give the military power to other princes, but to Li Chaoge, who himself proved his support for the East Palace. If not, the emperor only needs to compliment Li Huai in public, and let Li Huai take the post of patrolling the palace gate temporarily, and the direction of the wind will change immediately.

However, the emperor chose Li Chaoge, on the one hand to capture the cat demon, on the other hand, it also showed that the emperor did not want other "sons in the limelight" to overshadow the prince. Li Shan is different from ordinary princes. He is the crown prince and the rightful heir. As long as the emperor doesn't ruin the prince, he doesn't need to fight for anything, he can take the rightful place.

Li Shan said: "This is the will of the saint. Since the saint trusts Sheng Yuan, I naturally support it with all his strength."

When the princess heard it from the side, she couldn't help frowning. The young master of the prince sighed long, hating iron can not become steel: "His Royal Highness?, this? is not the will of the saint, but? is the queen of heaven. The saint is indeed towards the east palace, but not necessarily. No one knows what the queen thinks now. Yes, she took all the power in her own hands, but did not reveal the meaning of laying the throne for her Royal Highness. The East Palace has been set up for ten years, and the crown prince has nothing to do with it and cannot be repealed. Perhaps Tianhou will hand over the forbidden army to Sheng. Princess Yuan, but did not give it to King Zhao, because she was afraid that it would be too obvious to support King Zhao, so she retreated? Seek to be the next best thing, and support Princess Shengyuan. Who in the dynasty knows that Princess Shengyuan and the Queen of Heaven are in the same spirit, as long as the Queen supports King Zhao , Princess Sheng Yuan led the Forbidden Army to clear the way for King Zhao. At that time, the military power will not be in the hands of King Zhao. Your Highness? You can no longer give in."

Li Shan frowned and said, "Maybe it's not that. Zhao Wang has not been interested in politics since he was young. He moved out of the palace to chant poems and make fus every day, and has never intervened in officialdom. Perhaps Wang Zhao didn't want to seize the throne. ."

The prince’s young teacher was stifled with anger, and the prince concubine lied to the side to answer: "His Royal Highness?, how do you know that King Zhao is really uninterested, and you are not acting to deceive people? Besides, even if King Zhao really has no intention of Dabao, then he? What about his courtiers' cronies?"

"Yes." The prince's young teacher said, "Wang Zhao is not happy with government affairs, maybe Zheng and the Queen's mind. First, Wang Zhao is healthy, and secondly, he has a shallow foundation. Thirdly, he will follow the words of the Queen? If King Zhao ascends the throne, the Queen can do it. Continue to control the court, there are not many people available to King Zhao, and he must continue to rely on Tianhou and Princess Shengyuan. This? For King Zhao, Tianhou and Princess Shengyuan, it is a win-win situation. Your Highness?, you must Guard against."

Li Shan's expression became stern. The East Palace was a small imperial court, and all configurations were set up at a reduced rate compared to the emperor. The emperor had three provinces and six departments, and Li Shan also had his own Zhongshu province and his subordinate province. It was just a change of name and the scale was greatly reduced. The emperor had a forbidden army to travel, and the prince also had his own soldiers.

The political power that the prince has accumulated over the past ten years cannot be underestimated. What's more, the prince is what the people want after all, and the rituals and laws are orthodox. If Li Shan ascends the throne, the Donggong team will never give power to the Queen. However, because Li Shan and Tianhou have different political ideas, they may not be able to reach a consensus on major national issues. When the time comes, the prince will have both courtesy and law and courtiers, and the queen may not be able to win the battle against the prince.

In contrast, Li Huai is much easier to manipulate. At least his health is an overwhelming advantage. Anyway, those who are on the throne are the sons of the queen, why not choose an obedient one after that day?

Li Shan was silent. In recent years, he has treated people with kindness. If it were other princes, Li Shan would be confident that his brothers and sisters would support him, and would not betray others. But what if that person is his?

Who will Li Changle, Li Chaoge, and even the queen support?

Li Shan already had the answer in his heart. Li Changle and Li Huai grew up together since they were young. They play regardless of you and me. If you have to choose one of the two, Li Changle must lean towards Li Huai. The Queen loves her little son more emotionally, and prefers Li Huai who has no foundation politically. There is no doubt about who the Queen will choose. The only variable in this is Li Chaoge.

Li Shan hesitated and said, "Sheng Yuan just returned to the court, and she is not familiar with her brothers and sisters. She is always smart and may not be able to mix this muddy water."

The princess shook her head? She looked at the princess clearly and said: "His Royal Highness?, what you said is wrong. If Princess Sheng Yuan leans towards the East Palace, why this time? From the future East Palace to visit Her Royal Highness? Even if she is to avoid suspicion , She went to the Yang Palace banquet three days ago, she could have come to me in private? To solve Saburo’s matter, why does she have to ruthlessly face the Lu family in front of everyone? Your highness? People’s hearts are unpredictable, you must not be merciful."

Li Shan was very reluctant to believe this, but he felt unable to argue against it. Yes, if Li Chaoge is really on his side, he won’t break Lu Sanlang’s bones on July 14th. This? At all? It's not an attempt to form an alliance.

The Changsun family and Pei family also did not express their views. Regarding the grandson family, whether it is Li Huai or Li Shan in charge, they are closely related to the grandson family. They do not need to run into this muddy water at all. And the Pei family has already made a kiss with Li Changle, and their choice seems to be obvious.

Li Shan fell into depression for a while. His father supported him only because he was the eldest son, and his mother, sister, and uncle all liked his younger brother more. In fact, Li Shan also thinks Li Huai is very good, at least as a son, he is more qualified than him.

Seeing that Li Shan was depressed, the prince young teacher quickly persuaded: "His Royal Highness?, don't be discouraged, you are the orthodox courtesy, and the courtiers are all on your side. As long as the saint does not change his mind for a day, Your Highness ? It’s to save the king for a day. The only obstacle now is the queen of heaven."

This series of disputes, to put it bluntly, is not the struggle between the Li Shan and Li Huai brothers, but the struggle between the two interest groups of Donggong and Tianhou.

How did Li Shan know this? But, that is his mother, what can he do?

Li Shan sighed deeply, leaned back on the collapse, and asked, "In the opinion of the young teacher, how should the East Palace respond?"

The Prince's Young Master had been generous and sharp just now. When he heard the Prince's words, he suddenly fell silent.

Now the war between the East Palace and the Queen of Heaven is stalemate on the crown prince. Tian Hou didn't like the prince's weak body and soft temperament, but the courtier liked it very much. Speaking of rebellious things, the courtiers share the worries for the king, but they are not on the side of the king.

If the ruler is weak and the minister is strong, the ruler is strong and the minister is mediocre. A weak king is not a bad thing for the courtiers, and most people in the DPRK are still optimistic about the crown prince ascending the throne. Although the Queen of Heaven is talented in politics, her power originates from the emperor. Without the support of the emperor, the Queen of Heaven alone cannot compete with the entire court. The Queen of Heaven has the status of a mother, and the prince has the support of courtesy and law. There are winners and losers in this round. The Queen now holds the power of regency, but the ability of many veterans is not small. The East Palace is blessed by people and may not lose to the Queen. The real difference in the East Palace now lies in the military power.

The prince cannot be in charge of the army. The East Palace is a group of civil servants, and no one has any power in the army. Li Chaoge has sprung up this year. He enjoys great prestige in both the civil society and the army, and now he is in charge of the Forbidden Army. A small variable will not affect the overall situation, but now that Donggong and Tianhou are tied, Li Chaoge's weight has become a winning point that can turn the tide of the game.

The Prince Young Master was silent for a moment, and slowly said: "Princess Sheng Yuan attacked Lu Sanlang, showing that her heart is not in the East Palace. If the bargaining chip does not fall on our side, it will be thrown into the enemy. If this is the case, we can only destroy it one step in advance."

Li Shan's expression slowly receded, and he asked solemnly, "What does the young teacher mean?"

"The Tubo Zambian sent envoys to the imperial court to beg for marriage. They have always wanted to marry a real princess." The prince's young teacher looked at the prince, and there was a shocking coldness in those eyes that were no longer young. "Why didn't the prince persuade the saint to let Princess Sheng Yuan go to Tubo to make peace. This way? It can kill the queen's arms and arms, and secondly, it can win over Tubo. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
