President of Datang [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 158
Li Tan almost laughed angrily at his bad idea, he especially wanted to ask who are the think tanks around Li Heng?
He felt that Chen Xilie and Wei Jiansu couldn't come up with such an idea.
Let him choose someone to be the governor of Liangzhou...
Listen, is this something that people can say?
What the court needs now is to strengthen its control over various places. After all, after this incident, many places have their own armed forces.
If Li Heng needed to be intimidated, he should be tough to the end, directly force Li Tan to stay in Chang'an, and then beat the officials of Liangzhou from top to bottom and replace them with his own people.
Only in this way can those Jiedu envoys and governors in various places weigh it. If even Li Tan can't stand it, then they may suffer even more if they are not as good as Li Tan in these places.
And the emperor is tolerant to his younger brothers, but he may not necessarily be tolerant to them, so he should be able to shock a few timid ones.
As for the courageous ones, this kind of warning cannot be overwhelmed, and stronger methods must be used.
Anyway, if it was Li Tan, he would have done this. As for the consequences, he was not imprisoned, confinement, or abused. He just felt sorry for his brother and didn't want him to work hard and eat sand. Is there a problem?Absolutely not.
However, Li Heng had this heart, but he still didn't dare to do it.
To put it nicely is to be indecisive, but to put it badly is to be cowardly.
Li Tan was convinced.
He looked at Li Heng without speaking for a long time, but he didn't know what Li Heng had misunderstood. He actually leaned back for a moment, with some fear in his eyes.
Li Tan: ...
Does he look that scary?
Li Tan said helplessly: "I came back after half of the construction of that place in Liangzhou, leaving a mess. If I don't go back, those people probably haven't moved much. Let someone else go there... I'm afraid Liangzhou will go back again. On the old road."
Li Heng naturally didn't believe it, he smiled slightly and said: "So I said, just find someone you approve of and go there?"
Li Tan looked at him innocently: "It's useless to have the ability, he has no money."
Li Heng:? ? ? ? ?
Li Tan added: "I paid for the construction of Liangzhou New City and other things myself."
Li Heng's first reaction after hearing this was: he is not demanding money from me, is he?
After all, the courtiers have never been allowed to build the state capital out of their own pockets, so it is normal to ask the court for money.
Of course, Li Heng can also take that the court didn't allow it. This is what Li Tan did in private, so he doesn't have to give money.
But in this case... Li Heng was worried that Li Tan would cause trouble when he was angry.
Seeing that Li Heng's face turned green, Li Tan couldn't help but make up for it again: "Oh, I paid for it when I was in Chang'an before, but when the sage is back, I don't have to do it for him anymore."
Li Heng: ...
He now feels that Li Tan is a creditor.
So he decisively changed the subject and asked: "I heard that Ashina Chaoyi is the leader of the rebels now. I wonder how much 31 Lang knows about this person?"
Li Tan said, "I don't know, I've never heard of him before."
Anyway, if there are no problems, Ashina Chaoyi will not live long, do you know what is the use?
Li Heng asked again: "Then... Fan Yang, who would 31 Lang think is more suitable if he sends troops?"
Li Heng asked this because he wanted to tell Li Tan veiledly, don't think about it yourself, just recommend a suitable one, almost I just turned a blind eye and used it.
Li Tan understood, and was even more speechless. He knew that this was Li Heng's way of compromising, but... can't you use a more reliable way?
Li Tan pretended to be thinking seriously, and said for a while, "Duke Dai, he should have no problem leading troops."
The Duke of Dai is Guo Ziyi. Before that, Guo Ziyi was only the governor of Shuofang. Later, because of his effective command, he was named Duke of Dai.
So looking at it this way, from the beginning to the end, Li Tan has not received any rewards. Now that he has been sealed off as compensation for the removal of military power, it is considered unkind by the court.
That's why Li Hengcai was even more cautious, for fear that Li Tan would throw the table if he was unhappy.
Now Li Tan has too much energy. Liangzhou, Lanzhou, Yuanzhou, Chang'an, Luoyang, and even Puzhou and Jinzhou are all his people. If Li Tan is allowed to continue like this, half of the Tang Dynasty will fall into his hands. up.
And because of this, Li Heng wanted to be tough but didn't dare, for fear that the officials in these places would directly turn against him.
After Li Tan named the candidate, Li Heng's first reaction was how the relationship between Guo Ziyi and Li Tan was.
It's just that he didn't think about Guo Ziyi's relationship with Li Tan. After all, when Guo Ziyi was promoted to suppress the rebellion, Li Tan was messing around in Liangzhou.
The two hadn't even met each other.
However, Li Heng still remained skeptical, otherwise why would Li Tan recommend Guo Ziyi instead of recommending others?
He decided to go back and send someone to investigate first. After all, there are too few generals who are capable of suppressing the rebellion and have no contact with Li Tan, and Li Heng doesn't have any reserve talents.
When he went to suppress the rebellion before, Li Heng originally wanted to take this rebellion as a trial, but... I really don’t want to mention it, if there is not another king of Jianning who is trying to turn the tide, I am afraid that his personal conquest by the imperial driver will become a joke.
Each of the "enemies" has extraordinary abilities, and each of his subordinates is worse than the other, which makes Li Heng even more anxious.
Of course, on the surface, he still smiled and said: "Duke Dai is indeed experienced, and he is a suitable candidate."
Li Tan was very frank. He knew that no matter who he recommended, Li Heng would investigate. If it had something to do with him, Li Heng would probably abandon it.
Therefore, Li Tan directly recommended Guo Ziyi, anyway, it is impossible for Li Heng to find out anything, except that Guo Ziyi wrote to him recently asking if he would like to cooperate, and he had no contact with Guo Ziyi before.
The two pretended to be very friendly on the surface, but each had their own ulterior motives, and the tacit understanding that once shared the same hatred no longer existed.
It is a change of identity, and it is also a strangeness that has not been seen for many years.
After entering Chang'an City, Li Heng looked outside and found that when the common people came out to greet him, he finally felt better.
He said with a smile: "Chang'an is still the same as in the impression, and the people in other places are much more disciplined."
Li Tan looked at the people quietly watching outside, and resisted the urge to curl his lips - when he came back from Luoyang, these people were not so honest.
I hope Li Heng won't know about this, otherwise he doesn't know what to think.
When approaching Daming Palace, Li Heng suddenly asked, "Is your lady still in Liangzhou?"
Li Tan raised his eyelids to look at him and said, "Chang'an has been in danger before. I was worried about Auntie's safety, so I didn't let her come over."
Li Heng nodded and said: "Send someone to bring the lady back and let her accompany the Supreme Emperor."
Li Tan's eyes flashed, Li Heng finally mentioned the Supreme Emperor, he thought that Li Heng would pretend that there was no such person as Li Longji.
But this time what Li Heng said was reasonable, he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said: "Okay, it's time to bring the lady back."
After he finished speaking, he paused and asked, "How is Father? I want to visit him."
Li Heng said: "Father is not here, in order to avoid a long time of exhaustion, I have sent someone to escort him to Xingqing Palace first."
Li Tan raised his eyes and looked at him fixedly, his eyes were rare and indifferent and sharp.
Li Heng was stabbed by his gaze, and couldn't help shrinking back.
Coincidentally at this time, Li Huguo's voice sounded outside: "Saint, the imperial city is close at hand."
Oh, Li Huguo is Li Fuguo, but he hasn't changed his name yet.
What he said was to remind Li Tan that it was time to come out, and the emperor had to settle down first when he returned to the palace, and then meet his courtiers as appropriate.
Li Tan suddenly smiled and said: "The sage is tired all the way, so I won't bother you much."
Li Heng didn't know why, but he suddenly felt relieved, and said with a smile: "31 Lang must be very tired these days, let's go back and have a good rest."
Li Tan saluted him respectfully, then turned around and jumped out of Luanyu.
It is also a loss because there are too many ceremonial guards, and the speed is very slow.
Looking at Li Tan's vigorous figure, Li Heng couldn't help showing a little envy in his eyes.
Li Tan is now in the best years of his life, what Li Heng has never had, and he dare not think about, Li Tan has got it, thinking of this, Li Heng is a little jealous of him.
Jealousy, but also fear.
Li Heng once thought that after he ascended the throne, he might face threats from many veteran officials. At first, he was worried about Li Linfu, and later he was worried about Yang Guozhong. But he didn't expect that these two people would die before they had a turn to threaten him.
On the contrary, it was someone he had never thought of, who was the biggest threat to him now.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Li Heng's eyes.
Li Tan didn't know what Li Heng was thinking, but in order not to let Li Heng get caught, he stood obediently by the side and smiled at Li Heng who was turning his head and looking at him indistinctly.
I have to say that when Li Tan looked serious and didn't speak or smile, he looked quite sharp, and his aura was really strong.
However, when he smiled, those two small canine teeth and those bright black eyes made him look like an innocent young man who didn't know much about the world.
Seeing his smile, Li Heng suddenly felt a little soft.
It's just a child, Li Heng thought to himself, let's talk about the situation in Chang'an later, he has no military power now, as long as he is willing to stay in Chang'an, what threat can he have?
Thinking of this, Li Heng also smiled at Li Tan and turned his head.
After Luanyu drove into the imperial city completely, the smile on Li Tan's face gradually disappeared.
He stared coldly at Luan Yu, who was surrounded by guards, and thought, if Li Heng abdicates or dies suddenly, nothing will happen.
But soon he came back to his senses, sighed, and felt that the impact of the war on him was indeed quite large.
After all, even if Li Longji tricked him before, he never thought of killing Li Longji directly.
Of course, Li Longji didn't really cheat him much. Even if he did some things that didn't make him happy, it was generally based on a good starting point for him.
There is a clear difference with Li Heng.
Li Tan turned his head back to the palace and said to Qing Kong: "Prepare some food and supplies, all the best ones, follow me to Xingqing Palace."
Qing Kong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Xingqing Palace?"
Li Tan paused and said, "The Supreme Emperor is placed in Xingqing Palace."
As he spoke, he sighed. It was clearly recorded in history that Li Longji's life in Xingqing Palace was not particularly good.
In fact, you can figure it out without guessing. Li Heng was so aggrieved back then, he must find a way to get revenge.
As for the relationship between father and son, Li Tan estimated that there was not much left.
Maybe not as deep as the relationship between Li Longji and Li Tan.
So he didn't intend to simply visit him, but asked people to prepare more food.
As for the money issue...it doesn't matter, anyway, the crown prince will ask for money for him.
When the whole Chang'an was tense or excited about Li Heng's return, Li Tan arrived at Xingqing Palace with his two carriages.
But before entering Xingqing Palace, he was stopped.
The guard guarding the Xingqing Palace politely invited Li Tan down and said, "Your Highness, you can go in, but these things are not allowed."
Li Tan's eyes were indifferent, his face switched directly to Hades mode, and he asked plainly, "The sage has a purpose?"
The guard's heart shrank when he saw him, and the thought of straightening his back and wanting to give King Ning a blow disappeared in an instant, and he even stuttered: "No...no..."
Li Tan raised his eyebrows coldly: "No? If not, still stop?"
When the guard stopped him, he had already thought of many ways to deal with it. He even simulated Li Tan's possible questions and answers in his mind.
Then he felt satisfied that he would not embarrass the saint. After all, these guards could be regarded as Li Heng's diehard loyalists, and they had more or less subtle resistance to the King Ning family who had been controlling Chang'an.
But now...he just watched Ning Wang swagger into Xingqing Palace.
Not only did he go in himself, he even brought in everything he had brought.
After Li Tan went in completely, the two guards looked at each other with fear on their faces.
The guard who had been talking just now asked his colleague in a low voice: "Why didn't you say anything just now? Let me stand alone?"
The guard also stammered a bit: "It's...too...too scary. Just now I felt that if we said one more word, the sword in King Ning's waist would stab us."
After he finished speaking, the two fell silent, and finally said in unison: "We don't know anything!"
Very good, an agreement was reached, and the two of them continued to stand guard without looking sideways.
Li Tan was walking on the road and didn't know that he almost frightened the two guards just now.
Anyway, ever since the news came that Li Heng was going back to Chang'an, he hasn't had a smooth day.
At the beginning, no one stopped him when he went in and out of the palace, but now he just came to Xingqing Palace, and this group of people dared to use guns to block his way.
Li Tan knew that these guards were conscientious, but he just couldn't get along, so he made another note to Li Heng in his heart.
After Li Tan calmed down on the road, he observed the environment of Xingqing Palace.
Li Chu was more reliable, even the Xingqing Palace was well cleaned up.
However, as he walked, he realized that something was wrong. The huge Xingqing Palace was as quiet as a tomb, and there were no eunuchs and palace people walking around outside.
Li Tan recalled the records in the unofficial history that Li Heng assigned twenty or thirty old, weak, sick and disabled to Li Longji's side to take care of him, and his anger value rose again.
When he walked through the door, someone finally greeted him.
It was a eunuch who looked very old. He walked over slowly, saluted Li Tan, pointed to his mouth, and shook his head.
Li Tan instantly understood that this person could not speak.
But soon he pointed to his ear and nodded again.
That means he can still listen.
Li Tan took a deep breath and asked, "Is the Supreme Emperor in there?"
The eunuch nodded, bent over and gestured please to Li Tan.
Li Tan ordered the carriage to be parked aside, and led the people in.
When he reached the gate, Li Tan saw a tall and thin man approaching.
Because the light in the hall was extremely dim, he didn't see clearly until he walked into Li Tan that it was Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi was stunned when he saw Li Tan, and saluted Li Tan and said, "Your Highness."
Li Tan was very moved when he saw Gao Lishi. At this time, Gao Lishi was the only one who still insisted on Li Longji.
Feelings are emotions, but he didn't say it out, he just asked, "Where is Dad?"
Gao Lishi turned sideways to let Li Tan in and said, "The Supreme Emperor has been exhausted all the way, and has already fallen asleep."
Li Tan paused and said, "It's just a coincidence that I came here."
Gao Lishi said hastily: "The Supreme Emperor came here to sleep less, and he will wake up in a short time. Please wait a moment, Your Highness."
Hearing his imperceptible pleading tone, Li Tan couldn't help turning his head to look at him, only to find that Gao Lishi's temples had turned gray, and there were wrinkles between his brows.
Gao Lishi's eyes were also pleading, Li Tan knew that he was worried that he would leave, then no one in Chang'an City would remember this Supreme Emperor.
Li Tan was silent for a moment before he smiled and said, "Well, I just brought some things over here, let's unload them first."
Gao Lishi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and hurriedly called the master to unload the goods.
Only at this time did Li Tan realize that there was nothing wrong with what was recorded, whether it was official history or not.
Those who came to take care of Li Longji were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there were not many of them.
Gao Lishi probably called everyone over, but there were only 30 people in total.
No wonder the huge Xingqing Palace looked deserted when he came over.
Gao Lishi thought that what Li Tan brought was just some symbolic gifts, but he didn't expect that he had everything to eat and use.
If he didn't know that Li Tan was not poor, he would even have doubted whether Li Tan had moved the entire palace here.
These things are not particularly expensive, and they are even worse than those used by Li Longji before. Gao Lishi might not have noticed them before.
However, facing these things now, he only felt his nose sour and had the urge to cry.
Li Tan whispered a few words to Qing Kong while they were moving things, Qing Kong was stunned for a moment, with a gloomy expression on his face.
Li Tan nodded to him, then turned and left.
After he left, Li Tan walked up to Gao Lishi and said, "These are newly prepared at home, they are not very good, let's use them for the Supreme Emperor first, tell me what is missing, and I will ask someone to order some."
As a person who has always regarded Li Longji's everything as his highest will, Gao Lishi was a little hesitant when he heard Li Tan say this: "His Highness behaves like this...I'm afraid it's not appropriate..."
While talking, he also looked north, the direction of his gaze was the location of Daming Palace.
Li Tan sneered: "I know what the Duke is worried about, don't worry, he won't dare to touch me for the time being, not to mention...it won't do him any harm."
Gao Lishi stared at Li Tan for a while, and suddenly said with emotion: "Your Highness has grown up."
Li Tan was a little dazed after hearing this, and couldn't help but sighed and said, "Actually, it hasn't been a few years."
Gao Lishi didn't speak, who said it wasn't?
When the two were relatively silent, Gao Lishi saw Qing Kong leading a group of people coming from a distance.
He was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Li Tan and asked, "Your Highness, this is..."
Li Tan said: "The inside of Xingqing Palace is too dark, it needs to be remodeled, and there are too few people here, how can it be enough? I will take A Niang over after a while, this place is not good."
Gao Lishi cheered up and asked, "Will the lady come?"
Li Tan was helpless: "We can't let her stay in Liangzhou for a lifetime, and... she should also miss Dad."
When Li Tan said the last sentence, he was very guilty. He reckoned that Concubine Yang might really want to kill someone.
However, Gao Lishi breathed a sigh of relief: "With the lady here, Sheng... the Supreme Emperor should be better."
What else can be done?Still drunk and dreaming?
At this point, the more sober you are, the more painful it will be. It's better to be muddled and live every day.
After Qing Kong brought these people, Li Tan said, "You can stay here to serve the Supreme Emperor in peace."
Li Tan turned to look at Gao Lishi and said, "Mr. County, these people are all from my mansion, but you also know that I have not been in Chang'an for a long time, and the rules of the mansion have been relaxed, so these people will be handed over to you to discipline." .”
Gao Lishi nodded, and then Li Tan pointed to the craftsmen behind him and said: "Let these people repair the Xingqing Palace, but it depends on what daddy likes. At that time, daddy can do whatever he wants. , These people stay here first."
Gao Lishi trusted Li Tan, and he did not doubt the origin of these people.
Of course, at this point, it is impossible to assassinate a Supreme Emperor to affect the political situation.
Thanks to the large location of Xingqing Palace, there are not many people at the moment, and all the people brought by Li Tan are just to make this place more popular.
Gao Lishi suddenly asked: "These craftsmen...will they stay in Xingqing Palace in the future?"
This sentence was a bit out of date, but Li Tan seemed to understand it and said: "Don't worry about the salary, I have money."
Gao Lishi still looked at Li Tan worriedly. After all, in his impression, Li Tan was still a child who needed pocket money from his parents.
Li Tan smiled and added: "The sage still owes me money."
Gao Lishi: ...
Li Tan is probably the biggest creditor in the world, even the emperor owes him money.
However, he still trusted Li Tan, and seeing that Li Tan really didn't care, he stopped asking.
When Gao Lishi was almost settled, a young eunuch hurried out, first talked to Li and saluted, and then said to Gao Lishi: "Godfather, the emperor has woken up."
Gao Lishi immediately said: "Your Highness, please follow me."
Li Tan nodded, looked at the man with a round face, who looked very festive, and asked, "Is this the adopted son of the county magistrate?"
Gao Lishi nodded: "The one I picked up on the road was lost with his family, so he entered the palace in desperation."
Li Tan nodded, knowing that Gao Lishi's entry into the palace was referring to him.
He casually took off a jasper finger wrench in his hand and threw it to the little eunuch, saying: "Here, welcome gift, take it, and listen to your godfather's words in the future, and serve the Supreme Emperor well."
The little eunuch caught Biyu's finger and looked at Gao Lishi in a daze - when he followed Gao Lishi, Li Longji had already lost power, so naturally no one came back to bribe him.
It was the first time he had seen someone give such a good thing to others.
Gao Lishi nodded to him and said, "Your Highness is not an outsider, so put it away."
The little eunuch put it away happily, he looked a little funny after he laughed, and couldn't help but want to laugh at this face.
Li Tan felt that he might understand why Gao Lishi chose such a person to serve Li Longji.
They arrived at Li Longji's dormitory all the way. At this moment, Li Longji sat there expressionless and let the clumsy palace servants comb his hair and dress him.
When he saw Li Tan coming, he was obviously taken aback.
Li Tan saluted Li Longji calmly as before.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't show any excitement, and naturally he didn't cry, but he felt a little sad for no reason-Li Longji was much older, at least 20 years older than the last time we met.
His hair became much grayer and less black, his eyes became cloudy, and even his eyelids drooped, making him look listless.
There is probably only one word to describe this state: senile.
When Li Longji saw Li Tan, he felt uncomfortable for a moment. No matter what his status was, men didn't want their children to see him in a mess.
However, Li Tan's calm appearance made him feel much better. If Li Tan looked sad and sympathetic, I'm afraid he really couldn't bear it.
While Li Tan was saluting, Gao Lishi explained what Li Tan had done.
Li Longji was very surprised when he heard this, and the first thing he said when he looked at Li Tan was: "Will Sanlang make things difficult for you?"
Li Tan paused, this was probably the first time he felt his father's care from Li Longji.
So he said with a smile: "Now he can't move me, when he can move me, it won't be because of these small things."
After all, Li Longji has been the emperor for many years, and now he can't live a life of drunkenness, without singing and dancing, his brain seems to have returned to the shrewdness of the past.
He immediately said: "Go, go quickly, go to Liangzhou, don't come back!"
Although he has no power, Gao Lishi can still find out some news, and he knows what Li Tan has done these years.
So he was very keenly aware that Li Tan's situation was a bit dangerous, of course it wasn't life-threatening, but he might lose his freedom.
That's why Li Longji let him go. As long as Li Tan doesn't return to Chang'an, and Liangzhou is not such an important place, it is impossible for Li Heng to take care of it for a while.
Li Tan was silent for a while, if it was before, he might really find a way to leave Chang'an as soon as possible.
But now...he suddenly didn't want to leave, or he didn't want to leave in such a hurry.
At least...Let Li Longji's living standard improve, and make sure that Li Heng will not be bored to come to study with his father before he can leave with peace of mind.
He smiled and said, "Father, don't worry, I know it well, really."
Li Longji looked up at Li Tanping's peaceful smile, and felt the strong confidence behind his smile, and then said something similar to Gao Lishi: "31 Lang has grown up."
Li Tan sighed, if possible, he didn't want to grow up either.
How good were the days in Chang'an when I didn't know the heights of the sky and the thickness of the earth and the wind and rain?
It's a pity that no one can go back to the past.
Li Tan stayed with Li Longji for a conversation, told him about the general trend of the world, and analyzed it by the way.
Li Longji was probably lonely for too long, and his speech was not as confusing as before, just like an ordinary father, pointing his son.
Only then did Li Tan realize that there were still many things he had overlooked.
Li Longji asked suddenly: "How many academies have you opened?"
Li Tan was stunned for a moment, made up his mind and said, "Three institutes."
Not many, but they are all in the hinterland of the center, almost including most of the elite students of Datang.
Li Longji nodded and said, "Don't give this to Saburo."
Li Tan didn't expect Li Longji to tell him this, and he didn't ask why, anyway, he thought so, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
After Li Longji talked to him for a while, it was obvious that he was not in good spirits, so Li Tan said softly: "I have already sent someone to pick up Auntie, and Auntie will return to Chang'an in a few days."
After hearing this, Li Longji regained his energy and said, "Then we need to arrange this place well."
Seeing that he was in good spirits, Li Tan looked at the sky and prepared to leave.
Li Longji didn't stop him, and even took his hand all the way to the outside of the hall.
As a result, when they got outside the palace, they saw that the Daming Palace was brightly lit, making the Xingqing Palace even more desolate.
Li Longji looked in the direction of Daming Palace for a long time before saying: "Today... Saburo should have a banquet."
Li Tan responded in a low voice, and Li Longji waved his hands with some disinterest and said, "Go, don't be too late, otherwise San Lang will have to think too much."
Li Tan opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say.
In the past, the center of this excitement was Li Longji, and he also enjoyed the feeling of being watched.
As a result, now he can only stand here and watch the excitement over there, and all of this has nothing to do with him.
Li Tan didn't know what to say in this situation.
Gao Lishi blinked at Li Tan, expressing that there was him, and told Li Tan not to worry.
Li Tan then left, quickly returned to the palace, changed into a dress, and then rushed to Daming Palace.
Tonight is the day when Li Heng returned to Chang'an and made his first appearance in front of the officials, or it was his first appearance as the emperor.
This is the result of his thinking over and over again. He originally wanted to make his first appearance at the Great Court Meeting.
But I was also worried that if someone didn't give me face at the Dachao meeting, it would be embarrassing at that time.
And the historian will record all this.
If it's a dinner party, you don't have to worry too much. After all, it's a formal occasion and it's not so formal. There is always a way to round out the embarrassing scene.
Under pressure, Li Heng set Li Tan's seat at the head of the ministers, and even prime ministers Chen Xilie and Wei Jiansu sat under him.
Before Li Tan came over, everyone was more or less guessing what the saint would do to King Ning, and what King Ning's reaction would be.
But this discussion stopped the moment Li Tan stepped into the hall.
Even when he came in, the whole hall was silent for a moment.
At that moment, Li Tan was the focus of everyone, the center of the entire hall.
Li Tan looked around for a week, nodded indifferently to everyone, but thought in his heart that fortunately Li Heng hadn't come out yet, otherwise he might be thinking about something else.
As Lee talked about his seat, many people greeted him.
Sometimes I have to say that it really makes a difference whether there is real power, merit, or deterrence.
In the past, when Li Tan attended this kind of dinner party, although everyone would greet him, it was because of the face of Li Longji and Concubine Yang.
Many important ministers greeted each other with a reserved nod and a few words.
But now these people looked at Li Tan with reverence, fear, and inquiry.
Li Tan ignored these various gazes, sat calmly in his seat, turned his head and greeted Chen Xilie.
It's not that Chen Xilie has never met Li Tan before. When Li Longji was still in power, he was already an important minister in the court and he was no stranger to Li Tan.
However, now he feels that King Ning seems to be reborn, anyway, let him see it, he feels that he can't see it through.
Everyone thought that Li Tan would directly pull his group of people to show off their muscles to Li Heng.
Unexpectedly, although those people seemed to be very familiar with Li Tan, that was all. They didn't stand in line, and Li Tan didn't greet them.
For a moment, everyone was thinking about whether the so-called King Ning Party existed or not.
Of course, some people think that these people are acting.
Just when everyone was guessing, Li Heng finally appeared.
He was dressed in the emperor's dress and it looked like that too, but for some reason, every move of Li Heng seemed a little strange.
After watching it for a while, Li Tan realized why he felt strange, because Li Heng looked so unnatural.
He is trying to maintain his aura, but it may be because he has rarely been the focus of the field before, so he always looks a little shy, but he is forced to stretch himself.
Not natural enough.
He is like this, so the following will naturally be more cautious.
Seeing that the enthusiasm of a good banquet was about to drop, Li Chu had no choice but to stand up and liven up the atmosphere.
The experience of dispatching in the Chang'an residence made him look much calmer than Li Heng. Everyone was a little disappointed with the emperor, but looking at the prince, they thought it was not bad.
Li Tan looked around for a week and knew that Li Heng's first show, although there were no embarrassing scenes, did not leave a good impression on the officials who were not familiar with him.
But it has nothing to do with him, he stared at the food table in front of him the whole time, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.
Everyone couldn't help but think of the previous rumors, and couldn't help but mutter in their hearts: Is it true that King Ning ate wild vegetables in poverty?
After Li Tan finally survived the banquet, he turned around and wrote a memorial, requesting to pick up Concubine Yang.
Li Heng couldn't help being nervous when he saw this memorial. After seeing that Li Tan's request was to go to Wonju, he was relieved and agreed to Li Tan's request.
However, by coincidence, for some unknown reason, when Li Tan really brought Yang Guifei back, he actually asked to see Yang Guifei.
So he met this concubine whom he had never dared to look directly at back then.
Li Tan accompanied Concubine Yang into the palace, Li Heng's eyes lit up the moment he saw Concubine Yang.
After Li Tan noticed it, he couldn't help but thumped in his heart, and then he heard that Li Heng asked Concubine Yang to live in Prince Ning's Mansion temporarily.
Li Tan pursed his lips and made no objection. Concubine Yang Gui was still very young, so he couldn't bear to let her go to jail with the dying Li Longji like this.
What he didn't expect was that the next day, Li Heng issued an order: the Supreme Emperor was in poor health, and the noble concubine was asked to become a monk to pray for blessings, and the Taoist name was still Taizhen.
Li Tan: I suddenly had a bad feeling.
The author has something to say: Readers "Yuehuangquan", irrigation nutrient solution +2
Thank you for the cute nutrient solution =3=
He felt that Chen Xilie and Wei Jiansu couldn't come up with such an idea.
Let him choose someone to be the governor of Liangzhou...
Listen, is this something that people can say?
What the court needs now is to strengthen its control over various places. After all, after this incident, many places have their own armed forces.
If Li Heng needed to be intimidated, he should be tough to the end, directly force Li Tan to stay in Chang'an, and then beat the officials of Liangzhou from top to bottom and replace them with his own people.
Only in this way can those Jiedu envoys and governors in various places weigh it. If even Li Tan can't stand it, then they may suffer even more if they are not as good as Li Tan in these places.
And the emperor is tolerant to his younger brothers, but he may not necessarily be tolerant to them, so he should be able to shock a few timid ones.
As for the courageous ones, this kind of warning cannot be overwhelmed, and stronger methods must be used.
Anyway, if it was Li Tan, he would have done this. As for the consequences, he was not imprisoned, confinement, or abused. He just felt sorry for his brother and didn't want him to work hard and eat sand. Is there a problem?Absolutely not.
However, Li Heng had this heart, but he still didn't dare to do it.
To put it nicely is to be indecisive, but to put it badly is to be cowardly.
Li Tan was convinced.
He looked at Li Heng without speaking for a long time, but he didn't know what Li Heng had misunderstood. He actually leaned back for a moment, with some fear in his eyes.
Li Tan: ...
Does he look that scary?
Li Tan said helplessly: "I came back after half of the construction of that place in Liangzhou, leaving a mess. If I don't go back, those people probably haven't moved much. Let someone else go there... I'm afraid Liangzhou will go back again. On the old road."
Li Heng naturally didn't believe it, he smiled slightly and said: "So I said, just find someone you approve of and go there?"
Li Tan looked at him innocently: "It's useless to have the ability, he has no money."
Li Heng:? ? ? ? ?
Li Tan added: "I paid for the construction of Liangzhou New City and other things myself."
Li Heng's first reaction after hearing this was: he is not demanding money from me, is he?
After all, the courtiers have never been allowed to build the state capital out of their own pockets, so it is normal to ask the court for money.
Of course, Li Heng can also take that the court didn't allow it. This is what Li Tan did in private, so he doesn't have to give money.
But in this case... Li Heng was worried that Li Tan would cause trouble when he was angry.
Seeing that Li Heng's face turned green, Li Tan couldn't help but make up for it again: "Oh, I paid for it when I was in Chang'an before, but when the sage is back, I don't have to do it for him anymore."
Li Heng: ...
He now feels that Li Tan is a creditor.
So he decisively changed the subject and asked: "I heard that Ashina Chaoyi is the leader of the rebels now. I wonder how much 31 Lang knows about this person?"
Li Tan said, "I don't know, I've never heard of him before."
Anyway, if there are no problems, Ashina Chaoyi will not live long, do you know what is the use?
Li Heng asked again: "Then... Fan Yang, who would 31 Lang think is more suitable if he sends troops?"
Li Heng asked this because he wanted to tell Li Tan veiledly, don't think about it yourself, just recommend a suitable one, almost I just turned a blind eye and used it.
Li Tan understood, and was even more speechless. He knew that this was Li Heng's way of compromising, but... can't you use a more reliable way?
Li Tan pretended to be thinking seriously, and said for a while, "Duke Dai, he should have no problem leading troops."
The Duke of Dai is Guo Ziyi. Before that, Guo Ziyi was only the governor of Shuofang. Later, because of his effective command, he was named Duke of Dai.
So looking at it this way, from the beginning to the end, Li Tan has not received any rewards. Now that he has been sealed off as compensation for the removal of military power, it is considered unkind by the court.
That's why Li Hengcai was even more cautious, for fear that Li Tan would throw the table if he was unhappy.
Now Li Tan has too much energy. Liangzhou, Lanzhou, Yuanzhou, Chang'an, Luoyang, and even Puzhou and Jinzhou are all his people. If Li Tan is allowed to continue like this, half of the Tang Dynasty will fall into his hands. up.
And because of this, Li Heng wanted to be tough but didn't dare, for fear that the officials in these places would directly turn against him.
After Li Tan named the candidate, Li Heng's first reaction was how the relationship between Guo Ziyi and Li Tan was.
It's just that he didn't think about Guo Ziyi's relationship with Li Tan. After all, when Guo Ziyi was promoted to suppress the rebellion, Li Tan was messing around in Liangzhou.
The two hadn't even met each other.
However, Li Heng still remained skeptical, otherwise why would Li Tan recommend Guo Ziyi instead of recommending others?
He decided to go back and send someone to investigate first. After all, there are too few generals who are capable of suppressing the rebellion and have no contact with Li Tan, and Li Heng doesn't have any reserve talents.
When he went to suppress the rebellion before, Li Heng originally wanted to take this rebellion as a trial, but... I really don’t want to mention it, if there is not another king of Jianning who is trying to turn the tide, I am afraid that his personal conquest by the imperial driver will become a joke.
Each of the "enemies" has extraordinary abilities, and each of his subordinates is worse than the other, which makes Li Heng even more anxious.
Of course, on the surface, he still smiled and said: "Duke Dai is indeed experienced, and he is a suitable candidate."
Li Tan was very frank. He knew that no matter who he recommended, Li Heng would investigate. If it had something to do with him, Li Heng would probably abandon it.
Therefore, Li Tan directly recommended Guo Ziyi, anyway, it is impossible for Li Heng to find out anything, except that Guo Ziyi wrote to him recently asking if he would like to cooperate, and he had no contact with Guo Ziyi before.
The two pretended to be very friendly on the surface, but each had their own ulterior motives, and the tacit understanding that once shared the same hatred no longer existed.
It is a change of identity, and it is also a strangeness that has not been seen for many years.
After entering Chang'an City, Li Heng looked outside and found that when the common people came out to greet him, he finally felt better.
He said with a smile: "Chang'an is still the same as in the impression, and the people in other places are much more disciplined."
Li Tan looked at the people quietly watching outside, and resisted the urge to curl his lips - when he came back from Luoyang, these people were not so honest.
I hope Li Heng won't know about this, otherwise he doesn't know what to think.
When approaching Daming Palace, Li Heng suddenly asked, "Is your lady still in Liangzhou?"
Li Tan raised his eyelids to look at him and said, "Chang'an has been in danger before. I was worried about Auntie's safety, so I didn't let her come over."
Li Heng nodded and said: "Send someone to bring the lady back and let her accompany the Supreme Emperor."
Li Tan's eyes flashed, Li Heng finally mentioned the Supreme Emperor, he thought that Li Heng would pretend that there was no such person as Li Longji.
But this time what Li Heng said was reasonable, he couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said: "Okay, it's time to bring the lady back."
After he finished speaking, he paused and asked, "How is Father? I want to visit him."
Li Heng said: "Father is not here, in order to avoid a long time of exhaustion, I have sent someone to escort him to Xingqing Palace first."
Li Tan raised his eyes and looked at him fixedly, his eyes were rare and indifferent and sharp.
Li Heng was stabbed by his gaze, and couldn't help shrinking back.
Coincidentally at this time, Li Huguo's voice sounded outside: "Saint, the imperial city is close at hand."
Oh, Li Huguo is Li Fuguo, but he hasn't changed his name yet.
What he said was to remind Li Tan that it was time to come out, and the emperor had to settle down first when he returned to the palace, and then meet his courtiers as appropriate.
Li Tan suddenly smiled and said: "The sage is tired all the way, so I won't bother you much."
Li Heng didn't know why, but he suddenly felt relieved, and said with a smile: "31 Lang must be very tired these days, let's go back and have a good rest."
Li Tan saluted him respectfully, then turned around and jumped out of Luanyu.
It is also a loss because there are too many ceremonial guards, and the speed is very slow.
Looking at Li Tan's vigorous figure, Li Heng couldn't help showing a little envy in his eyes.
Li Tan is now in the best years of his life, what Li Heng has never had, and he dare not think about, Li Tan has got it, thinking of this, Li Heng is a little jealous of him.
Jealousy, but also fear.
Li Heng once thought that after he ascended the throne, he might face threats from many veteran officials. At first, he was worried about Li Linfu, and later he was worried about Yang Guozhong. But he didn't expect that these two people would die before they had a turn to threaten him.
On the contrary, it was someone he had never thought of, who was the biggest threat to him now.
Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Li Heng's eyes.
Li Tan didn't know what Li Heng was thinking, but in order not to let Li Heng get caught, he stood obediently by the side and smiled at Li Heng who was turning his head and looking at him indistinctly.
I have to say that when Li Tan looked serious and didn't speak or smile, he looked quite sharp, and his aura was really strong.
However, when he smiled, those two small canine teeth and those bright black eyes made him look like an innocent young man who didn't know much about the world.
Seeing his smile, Li Heng suddenly felt a little soft.
It's just a child, Li Heng thought to himself, let's talk about the situation in Chang'an later, he has no military power now, as long as he is willing to stay in Chang'an, what threat can he have?
Thinking of this, Li Heng also smiled at Li Tan and turned his head.
After Luanyu drove into the imperial city completely, the smile on Li Tan's face gradually disappeared.
He stared coldly at Luan Yu, who was surrounded by guards, and thought, if Li Heng abdicates or dies suddenly, nothing will happen.
But soon he came back to his senses, sighed, and felt that the impact of the war on him was indeed quite large.
After all, even if Li Longji tricked him before, he never thought of killing Li Longji directly.
Of course, Li Longji didn't really cheat him much. Even if he did some things that didn't make him happy, it was generally based on a good starting point for him.
There is a clear difference with Li Heng.
Li Tan turned his head back to the palace and said to Qing Kong: "Prepare some food and supplies, all the best ones, follow me to Xingqing Palace."
Qing Kong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Xingqing Palace?"
Li Tan paused and said, "The Supreme Emperor is placed in Xingqing Palace."
As he spoke, he sighed. It was clearly recorded in history that Li Longji's life in Xingqing Palace was not particularly good.
In fact, you can figure it out without guessing. Li Heng was so aggrieved back then, he must find a way to get revenge.
As for the relationship between father and son, Li Tan estimated that there was not much left.
Maybe not as deep as the relationship between Li Longji and Li Tan.
So he didn't intend to simply visit him, but asked people to prepare more food.
As for the money issue...it doesn't matter, anyway, the crown prince will ask for money for him.
When the whole Chang'an was tense or excited about Li Heng's return, Li Tan arrived at Xingqing Palace with his two carriages.
But before entering Xingqing Palace, he was stopped.
The guard guarding the Xingqing Palace politely invited Li Tan down and said, "Your Highness, you can go in, but these things are not allowed."
Li Tan's eyes were indifferent, his face switched directly to Hades mode, and he asked plainly, "The sage has a purpose?"
The guard's heart shrank when he saw him, and the thought of straightening his back and wanting to give King Ning a blow disappeared in an instant, and he even stuttered: "No...no..."
Li Tan raised his eyebrows coldly: "No? If not, still stop?"
When the guard stopped him, he had already thought of many ways to deal with it. He even simulated Li Tan's possible questions and answers in his mind.
Then he felt satisfied that he would not embarrass the saint. After all, these guards could be regarded as Li Heng's diehard loyalists, and they had more or less subtle resistance to the King Ning family who had been controlling Chang'an.
But now...he just watched Ning Wang swagger into Xingqing Palace.
Not only did he go in himself, he even brought in everything he had brought.
After Li Tan went in completely, the two guards looked at each other with fear on their faces.
The guard who had been talking just now asked his colleague in a low voice: "Why didn't you say anything just now? Let me stand alone?"
The guard also stammered a bit: "It's...too...too scary. Just now I felt that if we said one more word, the sword in King Ning's waist would stab us."
After he finished speaking, the two fell silent, and finally said in unison: "We don't know anything!"
Very good, an agreement was reached, and the two of them continued to stand guard without looking sideways.
Li Tan was walking on the road and didn't know that he almost frightened the two guards just now.
Anyway, ever since the news came that Li Heng was going back to Chang'an, he hasn't had a smooth day.
At the beginning, no one stopped him when he went in and out of the palace, but now he just came to Xingqing Palace, and this group of people dared to use guns to block his way.
Li Tan knew that these guards were conscientious, but he just couldn't get along, so he made another note to Li Heng in his heart.
After Li Tan calmed down on the road, he observed the environment of Xingqing Palace.
Li Chu was more reliable, even the Xingqing Palace was well cleaned up.
However, as he walked, he realized that something was wrong. The huge Xingqing Palace was as quiet as a tomb, and there were no eunuchs and palace people walking around outside.
Li Tan recalled the records in the unofficial history that Li Heng assigned twenty or thirty old, weak, sick and disabled to Li Longji's side to take care of him, and his anger value rose again.
When he walked through the door, someone finally greeted him.
It was a eunuch who looked very old. He walked over slowly, saluted Li Tan, pointed to his mouth, and shook his head.
Li Tan instantly understood that this person could not speak.
But soon he pointed to his ear and nodded again.
That means he can still listen.
Li Tan took a deep breath and asked, "Is the Supreme Emperor in there?"
The eunuch nodded, bent over and gestured please to Li Tan.
Li Tan ordered the carriage to be parked aside, and led the people in.
When he reached the gate, Li Tan saw a tall and thin man approaching.
Because the light in the hall was extremely dim, he didn't see clearly until he walked into Li Tan that it was Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi was stunned when he saw Li Tan, and saluted Li Tan and said, "Your Highness."
Li Tan was very moved when he saw Gao Lishi. At this time, Gao Lishi was the only one who still insisted on Li Longji.
Feelings are emotions, but he didn't say it out, he just asked, "Where is Dad?"
Gao Lishi turned sideways to let Li Tan in and said, "The Supreme Emperor has been exhausted all the way, and has already fallen asleep."
Li Tan paused and said, "It's just a coincidence that I came here."
Gao Lishi said hastily: "The Supreme Emperor came here to sleep less, and he will wake up in a short time. Please wait a moment, Your Highness."
Hearing his imperceptible pleading tone, Li Tan couldn't help turning his head to look at him, only to find that Gao Lishi's temples had turned gray, and there were wrinkles between his brows.
Gao Lishi's eyes were also pleading, Li Tan knew that he was worried that he would leave, then no one in Chang'an City would remember this Supreme Emperor.
Li Tan was silent for a moment before he smiled and said, "Well, I just brought some things over here, let's unload them first."
Gao Lishi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and hurriedly called the master to unload the goods.
Only at this time did Li Tan realize that there was nothing wrong with what was recorded, whether it was official history or not.
Those who came to take care of Li Longji were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there were not many of them.
Gao Lishi probably called everyone over, but there were only 30 people in total.
No wonder the huge Xingqing Palace looked deserted when he came over.
Gao Lishi thought that what Li Tan brought was just some symbolic gifts, but he didn't expect that he had everything to eat and use.
If he didn't know that Li Tan was not poor, he would even have doubted whether Li Tan had moved the entire palace here.
These things are not particularly expensive, and they are even worse than those used by Li Longji before. Gao Lishi might not have noticed them before.
However, facing these things now, he only felt his nose sour and had the urge to cry.
Li Tan whispered a few words to Qing Kong while they were moving things, Qing Kong was stunned for a moment, with a gloomy expression on his face.
Li Tan nodded to him, then turned and left.
After he left, Li Tan walked up to Gao Lishi and said, "These are newly prepared at home, they are not very good, let's use them for the Supreme Emperor first, tell me what is missing, and I will ask someone to order some."
As a person who has always regarded Li Longji's everything as his highest will, Gao Lishi was a little hesitant when he heard Li Tan say this: "His Highness behaves like this...I'm afraid it's not appropriate..."
While talking, he also looked north, the direction of his gaze was the location of Daming Palace.
Li Tan sneered: "I know what the Duke is worried about, don't worry, he won't dare to touch me for the time being, not to mention...it won't do him any harm."
Gao Lishi stared at Li Tan for a while, and suddenly said with emotion: "Your Highness has grown up."
Li Tan was a little dazed after hearing this, and couldn't help but sighed and said, "Actually, it hasn't been a few years."
Gao Lishi didn't speak, who said it wasn't?
When the two were relatively silent, Gao Lishi saw Qing Kong leading a group of people coming from a distance.
He was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Li Tan and asked, "Your Highness, this is..."
Li Tan said: "The inside of Xingqing Palace is too dark, it needs to be remodeled, and there are too few people here, how can it be enough? I will take A Niang over after a while, this place is not good."
Gao Lishi cheered up and asked, "Will the lady come?"
Li Tan was helpless: "We can't let her stay in Liangzhou for a lifetime, and... she should also miss Dad."
When Li Tan said the last sentence, he was very guilty. He reckoned that Concubine Yang might really want to kill someone.
However, Gao Lishi breathed a sigh of relief: "With the lady here, Sheng... the Supreme Emperor should be better."
What else can be done?Still drunk and dreaming?
At this point, the more sober you are, the more painful it will be. It's better to be muddled and live every day.
After Qing Kong brought these people, Li Tan said, "You can stay here to serve the Supreme Emperor in peace."
Li Tan turned to look at Gao Lishi and said, "Mr. County, these people are all from my mansion, but you also know that I have not been in Chang'an for a long time, and the rules of the mansion have been relaxed, so these people will be handed over to you to discipline." .”
Gao Lishi nodded, and then Li Tan pointed to the craftsmen behind him and said: "Let these people repair the Xingqing Palace, but it depends on what daddy likes. At that time, daddy can do whatever he wants. , These people stay here first."
Gao Lishi trusted Li Tan, and he did not doubt the origin of these people.
Of course, at this point, it is impossible to assassinate a Supreme Emperor to affect the political situation.
Thanks to the large location of Xingqing Palace, there are not many people at the moment, and all the people brought by Li Tan are just to make this place more popular.
Gao Lishi suddenly asked: "These craftsmen...will they stay in Xingqing Palace in the future?"
This sentence was a bit out of date, but Li Tan seemed to understand it and said: "Don't worry about the salary, I have money."
Gao Lishi still looked at Li Tan worriedly. After all, in his impression, Li Tan was still a child who needed pocket money from his parents.
Li Tan smiled and added: "The sage still owes me money."
Gao Lishi: ...
Li Tan is probably the biggest creditor in the world, even the emperor owes him money.
However, he still trusted Li Tan, and seeing that Li Tan really didn't care, he stopped asking.
When Gao Lishi was almost settled, a young eunuch hurried out, first talked to Li and saluted, and then said to Gao Lishi: "Godfather, the emperor has woken up."
Gao Lishi immediately said: "Your Highness, please follow me."
Li Tan nodded, looked at the man with a round face, who looked very festive, and asked, "Is this the adopted son of the county magistrate?"
Gao Lishi nodded: "The one I picked up on the road was lost with his family, so he entered the palace in desperation."
Li Tan nodded, knowing that Gao Lishi's entry into the palace was referring to him.
He casually took off a jasper finger wrench in his hand and threw it to the little eunuch, saying: "Here, welcome gift, take it, and listen to your godfather's words in the future, and serve the Supreme Emperor well."
The little eunuch caught Biyu's finger and looked at Gao Lishi in a daze - when he followed Gao Lishi, Li Longji had already lost power, so naturally no one came back to bribe him.
It was the first time he had seen someone give such a good thing to others.
Gao Lishi nodded to him and said, "Your Highness is not an outsider, so put it away."
The little eunuch put it away happily, he looked a little funny after he laughed, and couldn't help but want to laugh at this face.
Li Tan felt that he might understand why Gao Lishi chose such a person to serve Li Longji.
They arrived at Li Longji's dormitory all the way. At this moment, Li Longji sat there expressionless and let the clumsy palace servants comb his hair and dress him.
When he saw Li Tan coming, he was obviously taken aback.
Li Tan saluted Li Longji calmly as before.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't show any excitement, and naturally he didn't cry, but he felt a little sad for no reason-Li Longji was much older, at least 20 years older than the last time we met.
His hair became much grayer and less black, his eyes became cloudy, and even his eyelids drooped, making him look listless.
There is probably only one word to describe this state: senile.
When Li Longji saw Li Tan, he felt uncomfortable for a moment. No matter what his status was, men didn't want their children to see him in a mess.
However, Li Tan's calm appearance made him feel much better. If Li Tan looked sad and sympathetic, I'm afraid he really couldn't bear it.
While Li Tan was saluting, Gao Lishi explained what Li Tan had done.
Li Longji was very surprised when he heard this, and the first thing he said when he looked at Li Tan was: "Will Sanlang make things difficult for you?"
Li Tan paused, this was probably the first time he felt his father's care from Li Longji.
So he said with a smile: "Now he can't move me, when he can move me, it won't be because of these small things."
After all, Li Longji has been the emperor for many years, and now he can't live a life of drunkenness, without singing and dancing, his brain seems to have returned to the shrewdness of the past.
He immediately said: "Go, go quickly, go to Liangzhou, don't come back!"
Although he has no power, Gao Lishi can still find out some news, and he knows what Li Tan has done these years.
So he was very keenly aware that Li Tan's situation was a bit dangerous, of course it wasn't life-threatening, but he might lose his freedom.
That's why Li Longji let him go. As long as Li Tan doesn't return to Chang'an, and Liangzhou is not such an important place, it is impossible for Li Heng to take care of it for a while.
Li Tan was silent for a while, if it was before, he might really find a way to leave Chang'an as soon as possible.
But now...he suddenly didn't want to leave, or he didn't want to leave in such a hurry.
At least...Let Li Longji's living standard improve, and make sure that Li Heng will not be bored to come to study with his father before he can leave with peace of mind.
He smiled and said, "Father, don't worry, I know it well, really."
Li Longji looked up at Li Tanping's peaceful smile, and felt the strong confidence behind his smile, and then said something similar to Gao Lishi: "31 Lang has grown up."
Li Tan sighed, if possible, he didn't want to grow up either.
How good were the days in Chang'an when I didn't know the heights of the sky and the thickness of the earth and the wind and rain?
It's a pity that no one can go back to the past.
Li Tan stayed with Li Longji for a conversation, told him about the general trend of the world, and analyzed it by the way.
Li Longji was probably lonely for too long, and his speech was not as confusing as before, just like an ordinary father, pointing his son.
Only then did Li Tan realize that there were still many things he had overlooked.
Li Longji asked suddenly: "How many academies have you opened?"
Li Tan was stunned for a moment, made up his mind and said, "Three institutes."
Not many, but they are all in the hinterland of the center, almost including most of the elite students of Datang.
Li Longji nodded and said, "Don't give this to Saburo."
Li Tan didn't expect Li Longji to tell him this, and he didn't ask why, anyway, he thought so, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
After Li Longji talked to him for a while, it was obvious that he was not in good spirits, so Li Tan said softly: "I have already sent someone to pick up Auntie, and Auntie will return to Chang'an in a few days."
After hearing this, Li Longji regained his energy and said, "Then we need to arrange this place well."
Seeing that he was in good spirits, Li Tan looked at the sky and prepared to leave.
Li Longji didn't stop him, and even took his hand all the way to the outside of the hall.
As a result, when they got outside the palace, they saw that the Daming Palace was brightly lit, making the Xingqing Palace even more desolate.
Li Longji looked in the direction of Daming Palace for a long time before saying: "Today... Saburo should have a banquet."
Li Tan responded in a low voice, and Li Longji waved his hands with some disinterest and said, "Go, don't be too late, otherwise San Lang will have to think too much."
Li Tan opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say.
In the past, the center of this excitement was Li Longji, and he also enjoyed the feeling of being watched.
As a result, now he can only stand here and watch the excitement over there, and all of this has nothing to do with him.
Li Tan didn't know what to say in this situation.
Gao Lishi blinked at Li Tan, expressing that there was him, and told Li Tan not to worry.
Li Tan then left, quickly returned to the palace, changed into a dress, and then rushed to Daming Palace.
Tonight is the day when Li Heng returned to Chang'an and made his first appearance in front of the officials, or it was his first appearance as the emperor.
This is the result of his thinking over and over again. He originally wanted to make his first appearance at the Great Court Meeting.
But I was also worried that if someone didn't give me face at the Dachao meeting, it would be embarrassing at that time.
And the historian will record all this.
If it's a dinner party, you don't have to worry too much. After all, it's a formal occasion and it's not so formal. There is always a way to round out the embarrassing scene.
Under pressure, Li Heng set Li Tan's seat at the head of the ministers, and even prime ministers Chen Xilie and Wei Jiansu sat under him.
Before Li Tan came over, everyone was more or less guessing what the saint would do to King Ning, and what King Ning's reaction would be.
But this discussion stopped the moment Li Tan stepped into the hall.
Even when he came in, the whole hall was silent for a moment.
At that moment, Li Tan was the focus of everyone, the center of the entire hall.
Li Tan looked around for a week, nodded indifferently to everyone, but thought in his heart that fortunately Li Heng hadn't come out yet, otherwise he might be thinking about something else.
As Lee talked about his seat, many people greeted him.
Sometimes I have to say that it really makes a difference whether there is real power, merit, or deterrence.
In the past, when Li Tan attended this kind of dinner party, although everyone would greet him, it was because of the face of Li Longji and Concubine Yang.
Many important ministers greeted each other with a reserved nod and a few words.
But now these people looked at Li Tan with reverence, fear, and inquiry.
Li Tan ignored these various gazes, sat calmly in his seat, turned his head and greeted Chen Xilie.
It's not that Chen Xilie has never met Li Tan before. When Li Longji was still in power, he was already an important minister in the court and he was no stranger to Li Tan.
However, now he feels that King Ning seems to be reborn, anyway, let him see it, he feels that he can't see it through.
Everyone thought that Li Tan would directly pull his group of people to show off their muscles to Li Heng.
Unexpectedly, although those people seemed to be very familiar with Li Tan, that was all. They didn't stand in line, and Li Tan didn't greet them.
For a moment, everyone was thinking about whether the so-called King Ning Party existed or not.
Of course, some people think that these people are acting.
Just when everyone was guessing, Li Heng finally appeared.
He was dressed in the emperor's dress and it looked like that too, but for some reason, every move of Li Heng seemed a little strange.
After watching it for a while, Li Tan realized why he felt strange, because Li Heng looked so unnatural.
He is trying to maintain his aura, but it may be because he has rarely been the focus of the field before, so he always looks a little shy, but he is forced to stretch himself.
Not natural enough.
He is like this, so the following will naturally be more cautious.
Seeing that the enthusiasm of a good banquet was about to drop, Li Chu had no choice but to stand up and liven up the atmosphere.
The experience of dispatching in the Chang'an residence made him look much calmer than Li Heng. Everyone was a little disappointed with the emperor, but looking at the prince, they thought it was not bad.
Li Tan looked around for a week and knew that Li Heng's first show, although there were no embarrassing scenes, did not leave a good impression on the officials who were not familiar with him.
But it has nothing to do with him, he stared at the food table in front of him the whole time, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.
Everyone couldn't help but think of the previous rumors, and couldn't help but mutter in their hearts: Is it true that King Ning ate wild vegetables in poverty?
After Li Tan finally survived the banquet, he turned around and wrote a memorial, requesting to pick up Concubine Yang.
Li Heng couldn't help being nervous when he saw this memorial. After seeing that Li Tan's request was to go to Wonju, he was relieved and agreed to Li Tan's request.
However, by coincidence, for some unknown reason, when Li Tan really brought Yang Guifei back, he actually asked to see Yang Guifei.
So he met this concubine whom he had never dared to look directly at back then.
Li Tan accompanied Concubine Yang into the palace, Li Heng's eyes lit up the moment he saw Concubine Yang.
After Li Tan noticed it, he couldn't help but thumped in his heart, and then he heard that Li Heng asked Concubine Yang to live in Prince Ning's Mansion temporarily.
Li Tan pursed his lips and made no objection. Concubine Yang Gui was still very young, so he couldn't bear to let her go to jail with the dying Li Longji like this.
What he didn't expect was that the next day, Li Heng issued an order: the Supreme Emperor was in poor health, and the noble concubine was asked to become a monk to pray for blessings, and the Taoist name was still Taizhen.
Li Tan: I suddenly had a bad feeling.
