Chapter 753(1/2)
Li Guer did not go back and stayed in Tongmamo.
Although the two are husband and wife, they dare not live together openly.
After all, Li Xian is the crown prince and everyone in the world is paying attention. As Li Xian's daughter, Li Guer is also inevitably paid attention to.
So, Yang Shouwen moved to the Feiqi Camp in Shangyang Palace the next day.
In this way, time passed quietly little by little, and a month passed without realizing it.
It was already Mid-Autumn Festival and the weather gradually became colder.
In a blink of an eye, Yang Shouwen has been stationed in Shangyang Palace for more than a month.
Every day, in addition to guarding Shangyang Palace, he would occasionally return to Tongmamo and have a tryst with Guer, and also pay close attention to the news coming from Chang'an.
When the young mother went to Chang'an, she fell into the sea like a rock.
Not to mention him, even Zhang Jiuling and Zheng Yi seemed to have no news.
Yang Shouwen asked Shangguan Wan'er several times, but he could not get the exact news. His mood gradually became anxious from the initial calm.
On the tenth day of July, Zhang Rendan, the governor of Bingzhou, arrived in Luoyang and officially became the Minister of War.
After Zhang Rendan returned to Luoyang, he immediately contacted General Xue Chuyu, the Yulin general, to discuss the implementation of reforms in the army...
This will be a very difficult task.
Since the emergence of the military system of the government, it has been deeply rooted for hundreds of years and has involved the interests of all parties.
Although it has begun to decay now, the centipede will die without being stiff. If you want to fully implement reform, it will inevitably touch the interests of many people. This will be a game. The difficulty is beyond imagination, so you need to act more cautiously.
On the 18th, Prime Minister Li Dan returned from Chang'an.
Yang Shouwen originally thought that after Li Dan came back, he would definitely attack Li Xian.
After all, during the two years of expulsion, Li Dan lost too much power. If he did not take action, he would inevitably be overtaken by Li Xian.
But Yang Shouwen was disappointed!
After Li Dan returned to Luoyang, he lived in simplicity and was very low-key.
Instead of fighting back, he took the initiative to submit a memorial to Wu Zetian, admitting the previous mistake of the Honglu Temple Minister, believing that he had recommended the wrong person, which led to the Honglu Temple doing many things that were infringed on the national constitution. Wu Zetian asked him to punish him.
"What a retreat to advance!"
Chen Zi'ang sat opposite Yang Shouwen and couldn't help but sigh.
"The Prime Minister is really a person who can do great things. His tolerant nature is definitely not comparable to the prince."
Yang Shouwen agrees quite well.
In his opinion, Li Dan was definitely a Goujian-like figure. After returning, he not only did not take any action, but instead gave up many of his original interests. Di Renjie once said during his lifetime that Li Dan was definitely a hero-like figure.
In comparison, Li Xian is indeed much worse, at least in Yang Shouwen's opinion, he is indeed inferior to Li Dan.
However, he still agrees with Li Xian more.
In addition to Guer's relationship, although Li Xian was cold, he was also kind.
At least after he ascended the throne, he would never do anything to hide his bow.
"Uncle, where did you get the news from Er Zhang colluding with the Prime Minister?"
Chen Zi'ang smiled slightly and said in a deep voice: "I can't say it now, but I can guarantee that the news will never be wrong.
Er Zhang also has our people around us!"
"who?"
Chen Zi'ang pretended to be mysterious and said: "Qilittale, Baishuitang."
"ah?"
Yang Shouwen was surprised and looked at Chen Zi'ang in surprise.
"Uncle, can you say..."
"You don't need to know too much, just know that Fengchen Mansion has our eyes and ears.
If one day someone says these six words to you, you can believe what he says is."
Yang Shouwen seemed to understand but not, nodded to show that he understood.
But he then asked with a puzzled expression: "The King of Xiang came back this time very low-key, but I always feel it is not normal."
"That's right!"
Chen Zi'ang said: "I'm here to tell you about this today.
The more you are like this, the more dangerous it is. From now on, you must strengthen your inspection of Shangyang Palace and protect your Majesty’s safety. I guess the King of Xiang will not be silent for too long, and maybe you will take action at any time."
"I understand this!"
Yang Shouwen and Chen Zi'ang talked for a while, and Chen Zi'ang said goodbye and left.
Outside the elephant gate, Chen Zi'ang got on the carriage and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Qingzhi, there is one thing I think you should know."
"What's up?"
Chen Zi'ang glanced at the left and right, and Yang Shouwen immediately understood what he meant.
He signaled the coachman to leave, then looked at Chen Zi'ang.
"I received the news from Zishou today."
"oh?"
"He said it was vague, but I could see some clues.
It seems that they found the clues that Guan Hu stayed and had left Chang'an. But he did not explain the specific whereabouts in the letter, and only said that he would intercept someone. But you don't have to worry, the eighteen Shaolin monks also set out with him, so there would be no danger to the young lady."
"He didn't say where to go?"
"No!"
Chen Zi'ang said: "However, this matter should be related to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"I see."
After Yang Shouwen finished speaking, he stepped aside.
The coachman stepped forward and drove the carriage and slowly left.
Looking at the back of the carriage gradually fading away, Yang Shouwen felt an inexplicable sense of heaviness in his heart.
He had an intuition that the decisive battle between the Prince of Xiang and the Prince Li Xian seemed to be coming soon...

On the tenth day of August 2018, Chang'an, a message came from Jiannan Road.
Mengshezhao King Mengluosheng colluded with Tubo to destroy Shi Langzhao.
When the news reached Luoyang, it immediately caused an uproar. No one expected that Mengshezhazhao would have been favored by the court and colluded with Tubo.
This made Wu Zetian furious and immediately sent an order to the Jiannan Dao Zheng Zhang Zhitai to attack Meng Luosheng.
The southwest land ignited again...
Yang Shouwen did not pay attention to this matter.
The reason why Meng Luosheng colluded with Tubo is actually closely related to Yang Shouwen.
Previously, he ordered Liang Jiu to secretly contact his lover, the concubine of Mengyan Pavilion, the son of Mengluosheng, and stir up the relationship between Mengshezhao and other tribes. This time, Shi Langzhao was destroyed, which is to put it bluntly, Liang Jiu achieved the results of his victory.
He had a gloomy face and said nothing.
The atmosphere in the Octagonal Building is even heavier.
The young lady stood timidly in front of Yang Shouwen, showing fear.
She returned to Tongmamo at noon. At that time, Yang Shouwen was on duty in Shangyang Palace. When she heard that the young lady came back, she immediately threw down what she had in her hands and rushed back to Tongmamo.
"Young mother, you are getting more and more bold now!"
Yang Shouwen gritted his teeth and scolded viciously.
The young lady lowered her head, but she didn't dare to speak.
Yang did not plead for her, but looked at her angrily.
This girl was really... missing for more than a month and didn't even have a letter, which made everyone worried about her.
With such a wild personality, if you don’t have a good attitude, God knows what trouble will happen in the future.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"Brother, don't be angry, young mother really just wants to help you.
I saw that you were so concerned about Uncle Guan’s death, so I wanted to find the murderer who killed Uncle Guan. After Zhang Jiuling and I arrived in Chang'an, we sneaked into our relatives and took us twenty days to find the clues left by Uncle Guan during our lifetime.
Can you recognize a man named Mu Mingyu?"
"Mu Mingyu?"
