"What?" Wang Sili immediately opened his eyes wide in astonishment when he heard the words, stood up straight and turned to look at Wang Zhongsi.

Wang Zhongsi twitched the corners of his mouth, and the expression on his face also showed some confusion about this matter.

However, after that moment of astonishment, Wang Sili quickly calmed down, subconsciously said: "This..."

Before he could finish a sentence, Wang Sili had already pulled Wang Zhongsi's arm, and walked quickly into the study on his own initiative.

After entering the study room and closing the door, Wang Zhongsi said with some emotion: "I didn't expect you to actually talk about this matter. Wei Jian was demoted to be the prefect of Jinyun County. As for Huangfu Weiming, it was only temporarily relieved." How to deal with his military power and the duties of Jiedushi, the sage has not yet made a conclusion."

Wang Sili watched Wang Zhongsi sit down, but he stood directly in front of the window with his arms folded in front of his chest, leaning his back against the window lattice, pondered for a while, and then asked softly: "When the sage issued this edict, what are you doing?" Is there? What is the saint's attitude towards this matter?"

Wang Zhongsi showed hesitation, thought for a while, and then said: "I was not there when the saint issued the edict." After a pause, Wang Zhongsi continued: "But I know that after today's court meeting, the saint will stay I left Li Linfu and Mr. Xiao to discuss political affairs in the study. Afterwards, the imperial edict was sent out from Xingqing Palace and directly arrived in my hands..."

Wang Sili glanced at Wang Zhongsi, and said helplessly, "When the saint issued the edict, you happened to be in Xingqing Palace, but you weren't in the study?"

Wang Zhongsi nodded his head as a matter of course.

After his father died when he was young, he was adopted as a fake son by Xuanzong, and he grew up in the palace when he was young.Returning to Chang'an City from Hedong this time, in addition to reporting on his work, he originally intended to visit Xuanzong, so during these few days, Wang Zhongsi stayed in Xingqing Palace except to visit his old acquaintance like Xiao Song.If Xuanzong hadn't kept Li Linfu and Xiao Song after today's grand court meeting in Xingqing Palace, he would have sat down with Wang Zhongsi to talk and let him eat.

Wang Sili nodded slowly. Now that he knows limited information, after thinking for a long time, he came to a rough conclusion half guessing and half guessing, and analyzed: "Xiao Xianggong has been watching from the sidelines before, and now, When the dust settles, I think I will not participate in this matter."

"Since the saint's edict will be issued when Li Linfu is there, then, I guess, in the study today, it is very likely that Li Linfu is impeaching Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming again, and the saint is not tired of trouble, so he wants to end this matter temporarily. " Wang Sili leaned on the window sill with his back, leaned slightly sideways, and gently touched his chin.

Wang Zhongsi didn't take it seriously at first, but when the boy actually started to organize the situation in Xuanzong's study, he became anxious, glared at him hard, and said angrily in a low voice: "Shut up! The whereabouts of the saint, How can you allow others to speculate!?"

Wang Sili was so stared at that he immediately shut his mouth obediently, but there was a half-hearted smile on his lips, and the small dimple on his left cheek also slightly curled up, but he smiled slightly in his heart, the whereabouts of the Son of Heaven, naturally cannot be guessed , However, this kind of superficial cliché can only be said on the lips, but what should be pondered in the heart, I still have to continue to ponder...

He pretended to bow his hands to Wang Zhongsi, as if he had really been taught honestly. Although he no longer mentioned Xuanzong and the scene in the study, he directly analyzed it on his own: "Wei Jian is the one who was born this time." Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was demoted to be the prefect of Jinyun County, especially for his crime of ambition, I am afraid that Wei Jian will have no hope of recovery in a short time."

After Wang Zhongsi heard this, he didn't say anything more.

Let him say that there is no hope of recovery in a short period of time, and Wei Jian's official career has basically come to an end when he is charged with the crime of "doing endlessly"...

What Wang Zhongsi was thinking was clearly expressed on his face. Wang Sili looked at him. Compared with Wang Zhongsi, he was thinking a little further in his heart. The situation, unless the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, it will probably be difficult...

However, compared to Wei Jian's official career, Wang Sili was obviously more concerned about the military power that Wang Zhongsi had just acquired.

Today, Wang Zhongsi is already the envoy of Shuofang and Hedong. However, on Shuofang's side, there is also the Shuofang Army stationed on the northwest border. The Shuofang Army itself has generals. Power is in your hands.

However, Huangfu Weiming used to be the envoys of Longyou and Hexi, but now, this part of the military power is in the hands of Wang Zhongsi.

Wang Sili clasped his hands in front of his chest, gently pressed the fingers of his left hand on the elbow of his right arm, and stroked the slightly cool cloth on it twice. He was in a good mood—this time back to Chang'an City, but it was really not in vain...

His eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up to smile, "When will we leave Chang'an City?"

"Why did you leave in such a hurry?" Wang Zhongsi was taken aback for a moment.

Wang Sili took it for granted, raised his eyebrows and said, "The crisis in the East Palace was started by Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming. Now, the two of them have been relegated to pass, and this matter has come to an end. Longyou and Hexi Now that you have all the military power, the next target of public criticism is not the prince, but you, if you don't leave now, when will you be?"

Wang Zhongsi patted his head, then stood up, walked to Wang Sili's side, and patted his shoulder heavily twice.A somewhat indescribable smile suddenly appeared on the face of the always brave and heroic general.

Wang Sili suddenly asked sharply: "What are you going to do?"

Wang Zhongsi twitched the corners of his mouth, pressed his voice and said in a slightly tangled voice, "Si Li, you grew up in Hedong, so you don't know anything about Chang'an City—"

The expression on Wang Sili's face became more and more suspicious, a trace of uneasiness suddenly flashed in his heart, and he stared at him hard without blinking.

After listening to Wang Sili's series of analysis just now, Wang Zhongsi also felt for a while the sage's intention to deal with the disturbance in the East Palace in this way, and then told Wang Sili with some embarrassment: "I grew up with Prince Li Heng since we were young. , but the relationship has always been close, everyone in the court knows..."

Wang Sili was full of astonishment, he was the one who didn't know!

Regarding the intention of the saint to directly hand over the military power in Huangfu Weiming's hands to Wang Zhongsi, coupled with the current situation, Wang Sili thought for a while, and immediately changed his expression.

In the Xiao residence, Xiao Yansui was sitting with his grandfather Xiao Song.The relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren was already close. Seeing Xiao Song was still thinking about it, Xiao Yansui was not in a hurry. While drinking tea, he picked out pieces of unfamiliar dim sum and tasted them one by one. First of all, let me talk about what I have seen and heard about going to Qujiang Pond for an outing with my two elder brothers, as well as many other young gentlemen and young ladies.

Xiao Song glanced at his granddaughter with a smile, and casually said with concern: "We will have dinner later, so eat less of these things before meals."

"En." Xiao Yansui put down a piece of pastry of unknown material in her hand, washed her hands with clean water, and sat down again after drying them.

Xiao Song thought about it, and told Xiao Yansui about Xuanzong's edict in the study today, and then added: "The matter of the East Palace is almost over."

When he said this, he was still observing the expression of his granddaughter, and found that she had always looked calm. As for Li Tan, it seemed that she was really just an acquaintance, so he was a little concerned, but not too much With a caring appearance, he also relaxed a little bit.

Xiao Yansui thought for a while and said, "I remember that Huangfu Weiming and Prince Li Heng have a very good relationship. That is to say, the two parties who tend to control the military power of the Prince and leave others alone? In this way, Li Linfu made such a The big movement is worth the money..."

The expression on Xiao Song's face suddenly became subtle, he scratched his beautiful white beard, and said: "No, that's not the case."

"Huh?" Xiao Yansui was puzzled.

Xiao Song grabbed the beautiful beard and said in a low voice: "Wang Zhongsi was raised by a saint in the palace when he was a child, and his relationship with the prince is even closer. Moreover, this brotherhood is clearly on the surface."

——The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace had a close relationship with the border generals who held military power, and Xuanzong would definitely be suspicious. In contrast, Wang Zhongsi was a brother of the Crown Prince Li Heng who rarely had a relationship with him on the surface.

Xiao Yansui thought for a while, then opened his eyes slightly in astonishment, and said, "Li Linfu, this is Li Linfu, if you steal the chicken, you will lose a lot of rice?"

Xiao Song hummed and nodded with a smile, but he denied it in his mouth: "That's not true. The Eastern Palace is weak, Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming were demoted from Chang'an City to be prefects, one went to Jinyun County, the other went to Bochuan County, Huangfu Weiming's home was raided! Li Linfu has been staring at the impeachment of the people around the prince these days, and the prince seems to be tired of coping. I don't see any intention of him fighting back..."

Although Xiao Song had plans to become an official recently, so he didn't fight Li Linfu very hard, but after all, he was not the same person earlier, not only did he have no friendship, but even had some old enmity, but he didn't see Li Linfu's misfortune, so he was so in vain After a hard work, Xiao Song was also happy to watch the jokes.

Xiao Yansui, who was somewhat speechless for such a result of being so arrogant and silent, said: "..."

Sitting here and thinking about it seriously, Xiao Yansui raised his head and continued to say to his grandfather Xiao Song: "Ah, since Wang Zhongsi is also a hard-core princeling, what the saint did is tantamount to protecting the prince? "

"Hey..." Xiao Song sighed softly, then lowered his voice, and taught his granddaughter almost in a whisper: "The sage and the crown prince are father and son, but they are also monarchs and ministers. If the sage is strong, the East Palace will naturally be weak. Li Linfu has gone too far this time, if he has the heart, the East Palace will be suppressed and beaten by him, if the sage does not protect the crown prince, the position of crown prince may really be dragged into the water."

Xiao Yansui blinked her eyes, but secretly thought in her heart, if the East Palace is strong enough to fight Li Linfu, no emperor would be able to bear it...
