Chapter 461: Waiting for a long time

When the first edict was sent to Qinghai, Li Wei was not there.

Di Renjie was afraid that Li Wei would be worried, so he did not say much about Shangguan Wan'er. His mother beat Shangguan Wan'er up, but Li Wei did not know. However, some of the letter could be seen from Pei Xingjian, and he thought it was just a coincidence. He did not know that something happened to the palace in the East Palace was crazy.

Li Wei did not see this way. He did not ignore Shangguan Wan'er's wisdom. He vaguely guessed that this was a trap set by Shangguan Wan'er. It was not easy to ask, but he knew that his father would definitely be ordered to return to Beijing soon.

Otherwise, if he didn't have the imperial edict, he would announce the matter to the three armies. At that time, the military situation would be turbulent and he would force himself to return to Beijing. But this result was something he didn't want.

At the least, a bad start can occur, and at the worst, a civil war can occur.

Then I waited for the news, made some arrangements, and attacked again. I led my army across Chiling and went south, passing through the cattle heart to the Chihai, and then to the Dafei River, not for the purpose of plundering. After several attacks on the Dafei River, it became a wasteland. However, the grass grew very lush. Maybe in a few months, the sky would be vast and the wilderness would be vast, and the wind would blow the grass low and see cattle and sheep. But I couldn't see a few tribes.

This attack was mainly to integrate the Dangxiang army.

Dangxiang people are brave, but the brave ones are individuals, and the overall lack of cooperation, so they are not strong in combat.

The edict to return to Shanzhou City was issued before he asked him to return to Beijing.

Heichi Changzhi was summoned, and Li Jinxing and the others came to Shanzhou to discuss matters. Their main purpose was to prepare for war. However, internal construction was also more important. If you want to give some advice, Pei Xingjian said: "Your Highness, don't stay, come back quickly."

Li Zhi issued an edict slowly, but Liu Renguixin arrived in Qinghai in advance and said these words and replied quickly.

Li Weixin made it clear that Qinghai should maintain the status quo and not damage national strength. When continuing to fight, it will occupy the right time, place and people. Another scandal of the inner palace occurred. However, Li Zhi hesitated. If he wanted to build Qinghai, he would not be afraid, but he was afraid of the emperor's inner heart and still did not want the prince to come back.

Once the matter is over, Li Wei will not be summoned back to Beijing. Maybe after a while, I can support the third brother Li Xian to the throne. Some are in chaos. So I am worried about a change when I return quickly.

Heichi Changzhi also advised: "I know your plan in my heart. If you don't do it well, your highness can communicate through letters to point out what is wrong with me, and I will correct it. Your Highness, let's go back."

It was early April, and the emperor arrived in Luoyang again and arrived in Dongdu, almost May. After a delay, the queen's strength increased by one, but Heichi Changzhi and others were also anxious.

"Then General Black Toothed, General Li, Qinghai is handed over to you." After Li Wei said that, he and Pei Xingjian immediately took five hundred guards on the way.

After hearing this, the Dangxiang ministries wanted to see him off, but Li Wei had already left. Then he beat his chest and stamped his feet, howled loudly. He had to comfort him, knowing that he might be reluctant to leave. He would get a lot of benefits when he circled, at least not as he did before, but he endured the heavy exploitation of the Tubo people. Even Xu Xiang people learned from the farming of the Central Plains, and also plowed some fields, planted wheat, and planted hemp, but the harvest did not come up, but life would be better in autumn. Some clever Dangxiang people used the preferential policies of the Tang Dynasty to trade with the Han people and made some small money.

Life will not be able to recover for a while and may see a bright future.

But in their hearts, they still want the prince to return to Beijing, so it is best to be the emperor immediately. Only when the prince becomes the emperor will the Tang Dynasty's policies towards the Dangxiang people not change. Therefore, there are a few true and false sounds of this howl, which is hard to say.

I comforted me a few words and let them disperse.

Upon hearing this news, Mo He and Lunzanpo breathed a sigh of relief in Tuyuhun City. The killing god finally returned. Tribes came out of the valley one after another, and their life in hell was about to end. In fact, this idea was wrong. Black teeth and wrists were not softer than the prince.

Black teeth have never moved, so I can watch the development of things.

Five hundred people left Qinghai in a mighty manner, and the people cheered along the way. Especially when they arrived in Chang'an City, the people in the city were sensational. I hoped that the prince would come back, and I had been waiting for it for a long time. This time, Li Wei did not remain a low-key person and secretly entered Chang'an City. He was generously passing through Xianyang, crossing the Wei River, and entering Chang'an.

Under the view of the people, they entered the city. Then they came to the harem and went to find the second son Li Xian.

This is not in line with the system, but the prince comes with power, and the eunuchs dare not stop him. They come to a quiet and cold palace in the Daming Palace and meet Li Xian.

After being detained for more than a month, he was hit hard again, with a haggard face and no longer visible as a handsome and elegant boy.

I don’t know whether it’s disgust, sympathy, hatred, or pity, but my mood is complicated, and asked, “Why do you do this?”

At this time, no delusions were left. Li Xian replied honestly: "Brother, I saw Shangguan Wan'er as Yun Ying and was talented, so I sympathized with her and loved her, and developed a love affinity."

Li Wei did not denounce it, and he didn't remember much, but in history, Li Xian had loved Shangguan Wan'er. But later Shangguan Wan'er did not do well and wrote an edict to punish him personally, which showed that the second child had feelings, but Shangguan Wan'er had never had much affection for him.

The direction of history has changed, so I can't imagine Shangguan Wan'er being moved by him. It's just that he is a virgin. Why can some people recognize him at a glance but not that ability? Of course, if someone can recognize him, he can't ask. You are the prince and the future emperor. What method can you learn to identify virgins and what to do?

Keep listening to him continue.

"I found Duan Fuqing," he agreed. After Li Zhi left Chang'an, he brought three or four French sons. However, Duan Fuqing was low-key and knew not many people, only one French general recognized him. But it was enough. He was blind and actually used important counselors under the Tubo Dalun to seek death for his counselors. Continue to say: "He asked me to instruct Zhang Da'an to propose that Shangguan Wan'er enter the inner palace to take charge of the order. Shangguan Wan'er was half-spoken, otherwise I would not have done such a bold thing in the inner palace that day. Later she called someone..."

I have the responsibility, and I was also fooled by your concubine.

"Even if you have any wish this time, I'll ask you again, using a confidant. Can't you remember it and check his details? Do you know that the Tubo people have already started to build a card in Zishankou in advance."

"So I'm not as good as you, I lose."

He was very bachelor, but he was discouraged anyway.

"Even if you can't use people, why bribe Zhang Guidong, tens of thousands of lives? If I hadn't been lucky, this time the entire Qinghai army would be defeated because of you, do you know?" But after saying that, he shook his head and stood up and wanted to leave.

For myself, for the three army in Qinghai, it was good luck, but for my second brother, it was bad luck. This principle cannot be explained.

"Brother, wait."

"What are you going to say?"

"Brother, I lost and was wrong, but I have something to say, no matter whether I am right or not, you have to be careful of your mother."

"I know," you only know until now. Just as you were about to leave, Fang said again: "Your Highness, let's go slowly."

Li Wei had no choice but to stop.

Fang suddenly knelt down and cried, "Brother, this time Your Highness Yong is wrong. But it turns out that your brothers have a harmonious relationship, but Your Majesty is determined to support King Yong and restrain you. Many young people take the opportunity to take the lead and repeatedly bewitch you. King Yong has done these rebellious things. I hope you can see that in the past brotherhood, forgive King Yong's faults."

If there is no accident, the prince will become inevitable. The life and death of his husband is all in the prince's thoughts.

"I don't know either." Li Wei said it directly. Even if he could forgive him, the generals of Qinghai would not accept it. They set a bad precedent for the future of the Tang Dynasty, leaving a hidden danger. He also said: "Besides, how to deal with the second brother in the end is not the final say at present."

After saying that, he returned to the East Palace.

When Liu Siqiu, who was newly promoted, saw him, he immediately leaned down and said, "Your Highness, it's great to come back. Save Liangyuan."

I don’t know what Di Hui and Di Renjie were talking on the road, but before leaving, the news received by the Eastern Palace was different, both good and bad, and I don’t know whether it was true or false. However, after Shangguan Wan'er was severely beaten by Wu Zetian, she was locked in the harem and did not see a single figure in the Eastern Palace.

Only then did Li Wei realize that Shangguan Wan'er was beaten. He was silent for a long time and finally said, "I know, and I will go to Dongdu immediately."

...

Li Zhi also received news that his son was back.

Before this, the Tang Dynasty welcomed some good news. First, the Sanmen Canal was completed as it wished, and the cost was huge. Finally, the difficult canal transport was chewed. On the day of completion, Li Zhi might have thought a lot of things in his mind, and it might be because Ming Chongyan took too much medicine and was not in good health. He still led the civil and military ministers to watch.

With a few waterways, the water flow is no longer as fast as before. Of course, it is still very fast. After all, this section of the river was originally very narrow, and it was either dug away all the islands or dug away, and the depth was not enough. The Sanmen River and the three newly opened rivers still caused white waves. Therefore, the shore still needed to pull fibers, but it was much better than the original difficult experience. Something would continue to happen, but the accident rate would drop significantly.

Then the Danshui Canal attracted some river water, and some small ships could sail directly to Shangzhou. This would be divided into two steps. After the autumn, the construction of water diversion will be started, and then the Zhengdang Canal will be dug, and the Zhengdang Canal and the Danshui Canal will be opened. It will take at least three years to complete.

But it is also good news.

Then Hu Ying led envoys from various countries to Luoyang, saw Chang'an, and then Luoyang. Finally, he knew why the Tang Dynasty was a golden country, and they were confused. Then he worshipped Li Zhi. Li Wei did not value this, and it was useless to make a false reputation. However, at this time, the officials attached great importance to it.

A series of good news made the Tang Dynasty like cooking oil with fire and flowers in brocade.

Li Zhi immediately rewarded Hu Ying with a marquis.

But when he arrived in the harem, he felt uncomfortable. Although the historian would record these achievements in his ruling name, he actually knew that all this, including the victory in Qinghai, was brought by Xiao Wu.

Then I heard Xiao Wu coming to Dongdu amid the cheers of the people.

"Your Majesty, Hong'er is coming back, why aren't you happy?" Wu Zetian asked.

"No."

"There is one thing that I have always wanted to report to Your Majesty, but I dare not."

"What's up?"

"It's Hao Chujun..."

"Hao Qing, what's wrong with him?" Li Zhi asked. Although Hao Chujun turned to Xiao Wang, he was a person who dared to speak out and was talented. Li Zhi pushed him up with one hand and regarded him as his Wei Zheng. Li Zhi attached great importance to him. When he heard his wife pointing the finger at Hao Chujun, his brows frowned.

Wu Zetian said what happened that day and said, "It's nothing. He only cares about Hong'er, he is loyal and I'm talking too much."

He was very alert and stopped immediately when he saw it, and stopped not to say it. But just a few simple words worked...
