[Sword Three] Ju Huai Yi Xing Zhuang Si Fei

"The palm was still attached to Ziji Hongmeng's scabbard, and Li Tan felt the long sword hidden in the scabbard beating restlessly.

Yang Yifei just nodded to Li Tan, turned around and left.Li Tan watched Yang Yifei's thin back getting farther and farther away from him, and felt that the distance between himself and Yang Yifei was also getting farther and farther away.Li Tan held Ziji Hongmeng tightly, and whispered to himself, "Fortunately, you're still here."

The Daming Palace found nothing, so Li Tan had to put it aside for the time being. Right now, he has emptied Xuanzong's power and is waiting for Li Heng to ascend the throne. However, there are many people who are waiting for the crown prince to ascend the throne. After Li Heng ascends the throne, Who should be the next crown prince, the ambitious Zhang Liangdi will never let go of this great opportunity.And after Xuanzong abdicated, what should the old courtiers who followed Xuanzong do?The situation that was finally opened, Li Tan didn't want to be irreparable because he made a wrong move. Wuming and Imam were his miscalculations, but they stood with An Lushan in the end. He has a way to solve An Lushan. There is a way to get rid of Wuming and Imam, not to mention, there are Tuoba Sinan, Fang Gan, Li Fu and others in the Daming Palace now. Since Jiutian wants to use the world as a chessboard, then he should use all the people in Jiutian as well. Throw it on the chessboard as a pawn!

In the dim tent, the old emperor squinted his eyes half-closed, looking at the moon plate hanging outside the tent. The moon was dim, and he could barely see the dark guards around the tent parting ways, a man with a straight back slowly Walk towards yourself slowly.

"See King Jianning!" The Shence Army guarding in front of the camp did not dare to stop Li Tan, but they did not dare to let Li Tan in easily, so they had to block Li Tan with their bodies.

Li Tan didn't care about their rudeness. After all, the relationship between Xuanzong and Prince Li Heng was no longer a simple father-son relationship.

"Is it King Jianning?" The old emperor's voice was slumped, he was no longer the high-spirited young man when he punished Wei Shi and Princess Taiping, "Let him in." The old emperor ordered.

The soldiers who stopped Li Tan made way for Li Tan.In the dim tent, only a lamp was lit next to the bed where the old emperor leaned on.The light was so dim that it could barely illuminate Xuanzong's old face.

Gao Lishi bowed and stood beside the old emperor, and when King Jianning walked in, he leaned over and whispered to Xuanzong, "Saint, King Jianning is here."

Xuanzong nodded his head lightly, and waved his hands to make Gao Lishi retreat first.Gao Lishi glanced hesitantly at Li Tan who was standing upright, and said again: "The old slave stay here."

"I only have this life left to be useful to them. Don't worry, I will be fine. You step back first." Xuanzong sat up straight, he was still wearing the crown, under the light, his slumped expression receded, as if Become an emperor who dominates the world.

Gao Lishi retreated in response, and when he walked past Li Tan, Gao Lishi took another look at Li Tan with a sneer on his lips, his heart skipped a beat, and he withdrew reluctantly.

"My subject, Li Tan, pay homage to the saint." Li Tan knelt down and saluted the old emperor who was still sitting on the throne.

Xuanzong looked at Li Tan who was kneeling on the ground, and there was a sharp light in his eyes. Is Li Tan acting too desperate, or is he really deaf and confused and can't tell who is loyal and who is traitor?

"Where's your father?" Xuanzong squinted his eyes. The mutiny at Mawei Station was carried out by Prince Li Heng in the name of "killing Yang Guozhong". Now that the mutiny has passed for a day, Xuanzong has not seen Li Heng in the camp until now. Li Tan, the king of Jianning, came late.Even though Xuanzong knew that the person behind the mutiny was the person in front of him, he wanted to talk to the prince whom he personally created and asked him why he didn't let the imperial concubine go.

Li Tan understood Xuanzong's meaning, and he replied respectfully: "His Royal Highness is gathering the army to resist the Spike Army, and he should be in the camp at this time. If the sage has something to say to His Royal Highness, I can pass the message on behalf of the sage."

"You?" Xuanzong curled the corner of his mouth, "That's right, why did I forget that you are the prince's military adviser."

Li Tan didn't care about Xuanzong's ridicule, he could understand Xuanzong's sullenness, after all, the old emperor had been all-powerful in the first half of his life, but now he was reduced to being betrayed by his parents and children, he must be unwilling and angry.Li Tan eased his expression, the purpose of his coming to Xuanzong today was just to negotiate a deal with the old man.

"The sage doesn't want to know why?" Li Tan took a step forward. He always wanted to know whether Xuanzong had the slightest bit of guilt for Li Qin's death.

"Because of Li Qin?" In the dim light, the sharpness in Xuanzong's eyes instantly turned into pity. After he knew that Li Tan was Li Heng's military adviser behind the scenes, he guessed that what Li Tan did was because of his sister Li Qin.When Li Qin was appointed to marry Tubo, the young Li Tan repeatedly asked to see Xuanzong, but Xuanzong turned him away.The old emperor sighed for a long time: "If the Tang Dynasty has enough troops, I will naturally not let the princess get married. However, after the rebellion of Wu, Webster and Princess Taiping, if the Tang Dynasty goes to war with Tubo, what will be the consequences? Have you ever heard about it?" Have you ever thought about it? Even Emperor Taizong, who created the prosperous world, made the emperor's daughter marry, just because Li Qin is your sister, you think it is wrong to marry?"

"I never think it's wrong to make a marriage." Li Tan's eyes darkened, "If the marriage was to stabilize the frontier, I would not think that the sage was wrong. But when Tubo and Tang were at war, I wrote to the sage to let Ah My sister returned to Chang'an, but the sage ignored her. My sister was killed by your shenanigans for the sake of the people of Tang Dynasty and Tubo, and you didn't even publish a eulogy. You said that my sister was an imperial daughter, but my sister was in your eyes It's nothing more than a speck of dust!" Li Tan flicked his sleeves, if he were Xuanzong, he would naturally think about the stability of the Tang Dynasty and adopt the strategy of making peace.What he resented was Xuanzong's indifferent attitude after Li Qin's death. A eulogy text could eliminate Li Tan's accumulated hatred, but this delayed eulogy turned Li Tan's patience into hatred.

"I am indeed wrong about this matter." Xuanzong sighed, he never expected that a single thought of his own would turn the indifferent Li Tan into a sinister and treacherous person. The rebellion and the Nanzhao king's eastward advance are all related to this Jianning king.

"Don't you think it's too late for the sage to say something wrong now?" Li Tan sneered, the country changed hands, and his beloved died. He finally let the emperor who created the prosperous world taste the taste of losing everything, but Li Tan's heart was still empty, On the way back from Daming Palace, Li Tan felt that the last bit of warmth in his heart had disappeared.

Xuanzong shook his head, he stood up, and walked towards Li Tan step by step, until only one step away from Li Tan, Xuanzong stopped.Li Tan was already half a head taller than him, and Xuanzong had many heirs, some of whom he couldn't even remember their names, but he still remembered Li Tan's appearance when he was young.The young Li Tan was not liked by Li Heng, and Li Tan didn't seem to care. What he cared about was Li Qin. The siblings who grew up in the court didn't care about power like other royals and nobles. .Xuanzong even heard people say that Li Tan said that he would take Li Qin out of the palace and live the lives of ordinary people. "Living the lives of ordinary people?" Xuanzong laughed comfortably after hearing this, "Aren't they living the lives of ordinary people now?"

Li Qin's marriage was not proposed by Xuanzong. At that time, Li Heng proposed to Xuanzong to let Li Qin marry under the advice of his advisers. Xuanzong hesitated when he saw the name on the memorial, and then thought of the person who was somewhat similar to himself. Li Tan, so he agreed to let Li Qin go to marry him.If there is no Li Qin by his side, Li Tan may grow into a virtuous king who is useful to the Tang Dynasty. Li Tan is too dependent on Li Qin, which is not conducive to Li Tan's growth, and Xuanzong also wants to see if Li Tan is worth it. Not worth his expectations.

Xuanzong looked at the man who was nearly [-] years old in front of him. In a blink of an eye, Li Tan was already taller than him. At the beginning, he thought it was good that Li Tan was somewhat similar to him. Li Tan's methods and decisions were exactly the same as his back then, and he even killed Webster. Li Tan also showed his own determination when he was with Princess Taiping.However, Xuanzong smiled wryly to himself, he was looking forward to Li Tan too much, and Li Tan could only be an assistant minister after all, he lacked the character that an emperor should have.

"It's not too late, everything has become a fact. When you come to find me now, do you feel that things have exceeded your expectations?" Xuanzong has become a wise and wise monarch again, but now he has no soldiers and no power. You can only seize this last chance.

Li Tan did not avoid Xuanzong's eyes, he nodded and said: "There was a little accident, so I came to make a deal with the saint."

"I have no power or power now, what kind of deal do you want to discuss with me?" Xuanzong's eyes dimmed again, he couldn't control the magical strategy and the Tiance Army, he was just an emperor who was about to abdicate.

Li Tan casually smiled: "Don't you still have Lingxue Pavilion?"

Xuanzong's eyes tightened suddenly, did Li Tan find out his most deeply buried power?

"It seems that if I don't agree, it will be impossible." Xuanzong reached out and patted Li Tan on the shoulder, and the cowardly Li Heng gave birth to a "good" son.

"I thank the sage for his kindness." Li Tan just bent his knees when Xuanzong stopped him.

Xuanzong said with a half-smile: "You said you wanted to negotiate a deal with me, and now that I agree to your request, shouldn't you also agree to my request?"

Li Tan still half-bent his legs, he hid his face in the dark, the sharp light in his eyes flashed past, then Li Tan stabilized his voice and said: "Sage, please tell me."

Xuanzong's hand holding Li Tan's wrist exerted a little force, he could feel Li Tan's muscles tense just now, he said calmly: "Let Gao Lishi stay with Li Heng with the Shence Army. "
