Datang: Activate the combat merit system at the beginning

"Even if His Highness handles it properly and can quickly control the situation, the occurrence of this incident will still be detrimental to His Highness." Li Yuanchang continued.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian stared at Li Yuanchang in bewilderment.

"It is His Highness who is in charge of the entire Chang'an City now. If this happened when His Highness was in charge of Chang'an City, I am afraid His Majesty will have other thoughts in his mind."

Li Yuanchang said worriedly.

"On the other hand, King Wei and his henchmen, who are coveting the crown prince's position, may also take this opportunity to trip His Highness.

Therefore, Your Highness must be cautious. "

"What Uncle Seven Wang said makes sense."

Li Chengqian frowned tightly.

"Uncle Qi Wang means that you want me to do nothing?"

"No."

Li Yuanchang shook his head slightly as a reminder.

"What should be done is still to be done, but when dealing with this incident, we must be more careful in case someone is behind the scenes."

"Ah."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly, thoughtfully said:

"According to Uncle Seventh King, is what happened in Chang'an City today related to the fourth brother?
Could it be that Si's henchmen did it deliberately, with the purpose of targeting Ben Gong so that Ben Gong could make mistakes in this matter? "

Li Yuanchang pondered for a while, and said slowly:
"Probably not. Wei Wang's party members dare not do such a thing, unless they want Wei Wang to seek death."

"But what happened today is very strange."

"Maybe it's for His Majesty.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, no matter who the other party is targeting.

The occurrence of this incident is definitely not a good thing for His Highness.

Your Highness must be careful.

Perhaps His Majesty, as well as the court ministers, will use this matter to test His Highness. "

"I also want to deal with this matter properly, but what annoys me is that that old man Fang Xuanling doesn't give me a chance at all."

When Li Chengqian said this, his face darkened, showing anger.

"He didn't discuss with Bengong, nor did he give a performance to Bengong in advance, so he ordered part of the imperial guards and Jing Zhaoyin to deal with the thugs on his own initiative."

"More than that, he will also entrust the guarding of the Imperial City and Chang'an City to Li Ji and Cheng Yaojin, veteran officials who are only loyal to their father.

Don't think that this palace doesn't understand, on the surface, he let King Jiangxia guard the East Palace, but in fact he wanted King Jiangxia to control the East Palace.

In other words, Fang Xuanling, an old man, didn't take Ben Gong seriously at all.

In the future, when I ascend the ninth five-year position, this old man will be driven out of Chang'an! "

Speaking of the latter, Li Chengqian was a little excited.

"Your Highness, be careful that the walls have ears!"

Li Yuanchang hurriedly whispered.

"Your Highness, there is no need to be irritable. From what I see, the reason why Fang Xuanling dares not to take His Highness seriously is entirely at His Majesty's will."

"Uncle Seventh King means..."

Li Chengqian looked at Li Yuanchang and lowered his voice.

"Your Majesty doesn't trust His Highness at all, nor is he willing to delegate power to His Highness."

Li Yuanchang said very cautiously.

"Yes!"

Li Chengqian sighed lightly.

Look depressed and disappointed.

"Since King Wei finished compiling Kuo Di Zhi, His Majesty has favored King Wei even more, and rewarded King Wei constantly.

Even Fang Xuanling, an important court official, respected King Wei. "

Li Yuanchang rolled his eyes, and there was something in his words.

"On the contrary, His Majesty is becoming more and more alienated from His Majesty. It is very important..."

Speaking of the latter, Li Yuanchang hesitated to speak.

"Uncle Seventh Prince, if you have something to say, you might as well speak up."

Li Chengqian stared at Li Yuanchang.

Li Yuanchang leaned forward, leaned his head towards Li Chengqian, and with a very low voice, provocatively said:
"In my opinion, His Majesty intends to abolish the crown prince and establish a new crown prince."

Li Chengqian's face changed, and his expression was complicated.

"What the Seventh Uncle Wang said, I have already noticed it."

Li Chengqian clenched his fists tightly, his feet trembled twice due to excitement.

"Ever since I had a leg problem, my father began to alienate me, and now my father only cares about my fourth brother."

"Hmph! It's not that easy to take away the crown prince of this palace!"

Li Chengqian gritted his teeth, a coldness flashed across his eyes.

"No matter what your Highness decides in the future, I will definitely stand on the same front as His Highness, and advance and retreat together with His Highness!"

Li Yuanchang's expression and tone were very firm.

"Thank you Uncle Seventh King!"

Li Chengqian's tone became somewhat calmer.

"If my palace becomes a great treasure in the future, Uncle Qiwang will be the greatest contributor!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Li Yuanchang bowed and said.

The moment he lowered his head, a hint of cunning flashed across his eyes.

……

"Report! Several thugs who set fire to Pingkangfang in Dongshi City were burned to death;
In addition, several arson thugs were surrounded by Tang soldiers, unable to escape, they committed suicide! "

"Report! The thugs who stabbed people with knives on the street in Huaiyuanfang, West City have been executed, and two of them were seriously injured and arrested!"

"Report! The carriage heading for Suzaku Gate has been controlled!

One of them fled in a carriage and was driving towards the West Market. General Su was leading people to intercept it. "

Inside the political hall.

One after another, envoys rushed to report the latest situation to Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng and other ministers.

The brows of Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng and other ministers slowly relaxed.

They were also a little surprised, they didn't expect to be able to almost control the situation in such a short period of time.

"What's the situation with the beggars in the south of the city?"

Fang Xuanling asked one of them for urgent orders.

"I tell Zuo Pushe that the situation of beggars making trouble in the south of the city has not been completely brought under control so far."

The messenger responded quickly.

Fang Xuanling's originally relaxed brows frowned again.

"Do you need to send a large army?"

Xiao Yu stroked his beard with his right thumb and index finger, thoughtfully.

"Don't worry, the matter in the south of the city will be brought under control soon!"

At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the door.

Everyone looked at the door in surprise.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Changsun Wuji striding in.

Seeing the appearance of Changsun Wuji, everyone was surprised and surprised.

"Situ is back?!"

Fang Xuanling stood up abruptly, overjoyed and said.

Seeing this, the other ministers also stood up together.

Changsun Wuji walked to the center of the hall, bowed his hands to everyone one by one, then squeezed out a little smile and said:

"Hello, colleagues!"

"Why did Situ return to Chang'an? Where is His Majesty now?"

Fang Xuanling asked immediately.

The other ministers stared at Changsun Wuji expectantly.

"You don't have to worry, His Majesty has returned to the Ganlu Palace."

Changsun Wuji glanced at Fang Xuanling, then at the other ministers, and said unhurriedly.

Hearing this news, those ministers were even more surprised.

"His Majesty has returned to the palace? Why didn't anyone inform us in advance?"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but question.

"That's right! Why didn't you tell us in advance?"

Xiao Yu followed closely.

His expression and tone were full of puzzlement.

"There is a reason for the incident, and the ministers cannot be informed in advance."

Changsun Wuji glanced at them and said seriously.

"Your Majesty led us, disguised as ordinary people, and secretly returned to Chang'an City."

"What happened?"

Wei Zheng asked.
