Chapter 1227: Chang'an Situation

The dinner held by Li Yingqi for the Tang envoys was very grand, because Li Xuan performed poorly and had no bright spots at all, and Han Cangshui did not fulfill the responsibility of the envoy, so during the banquet, Li Yingqi publicly expressed his dissatisfaction and severely criticized Li Xuan paused.

"It's all this trash, which caused me to lose a city's tax dollars. If you were more helpful, I wouldn't have to give so much to Sun Mo."

Li Yingqi made Li Xuan think about it behind closed doors for a year, and at the same time praised Li Ziqi and Sun Mo, and rewarded a lot of money and official positions.

But the most enviable thing is that Li Yingqi canonized Sun Mo as the lord of Jinling City. In the future, as long as he does not commit the serious crime of rebellion and treason, he will be pardoned, and at the same time, he will be allowed to own one-tenth of the city's taxes paid to the treasury. .

This is Jinling, let alone in Datang, even if it is in Kyushu, it is a top city, rich, fashionable and luxurious!

Becoming the city lord is definitely the dream of many people.

But those high-ranking officials smelled something strange from it.

In the past, the owner of Jinling was Prince Li Zixing, and the taxes collected basically went into his treasury, and the country could not get much.

Li Yingqi arranged Li Xiu's fiefdom in Jinling just to push her out and fight with Prince Li. Later, the eldest princess won and paid more taxes to the treasury, but Li Yingqi always felt that she was greedy. part.

Li Xiu is talented, not inferior to men. If he is in power, he will definitely look like a prime minister. Li Yingqi is not at ease when he is placed in such an important place as Jinling.

Now, Li Xiu and Sun Mo are so close, plus Li Ziqi's relationship, to be honest, Li Yingqi is a little nervous.

This force is enough to influence the government and threaten his throne.

How interesting it is to be the emperor, so Li Yingqi was afraid of being forced to abdicate, so he came up with a trick of giving Jinling to Sun Mo.

Not only does it appear that he is more generous than King Qi, but he can also provoke the relationship between Li Xiu and Sun Mo and make them confront each other.

"Sun Mo and Li Xiu will definitely beat their brains out for the ownership of Jinling. Haha, I'm such a genius!"

A master teacher with unparalleled genius?

The talented eldest princess?

Sorry, you are all my pawns!

After seeing off Sun Mo, Li Yingqi started a life of drunkenness and dreams again.

"The most hated enemy in life is dead, how lonely it is like snow!"

Li Yingqi drank fine wine and enjoyed singing and dancing.

These show girls are all selected from unmarried girls under the age of 16 all over the country, and they are as attractive as unopened purses.

Compared with King Qi who likes older than him, Li Yingqi only loves young girls. He read from an ancient book that sleeping with a young girl every day can make him full of vitality.

In the past, the officials repeatedly advised against this, but after Li Yingqi killed six people in one go, no one talked nonsense anymore.

"Haha, it's a good dance, but it looks even better if you take off the palace skirt!"

Li Yingqi drank the fine wine in the glass in one gulp, got up and walked quickly to the stage: "The widows are here to undress you!"

The show girls immediately pretended to be panicked, like a frightened little rabbit,

Avoid Li Yingqi.

The musicians are not surprised, this is a fixed drama.

Li Yingqi chased the girls like a butterfly among flowers, touching one, kissing that, but suddenly, he staggered, fell to the ground, and then twitched.

"His Majesty!"

The beautiful girls and eunuchs knelt down in unison, their faces pale with fright. They saw that the emperor was foaming at the mouth, feces and urine flowed out, and the dragon robe was wet.

The news of the emperor's stroke quickly spread throughout the palace, and then it was blocked and discussion was strictly prohibited.

Li Yingqi's father and mother are dead, so in this palace, he is supreme, unable to move due to the stroke, the second most noble person is Li Xuan.

The current empress is not Li Xuan's biological mother, and she is not good at palace fighting, and has been eating fast and reciting Buddha, so she has no authority.

When Li Xuan, who was facing the wall in the empress's womb, heard the news, he was pleasantly surprised at first, and then panicked. He didn't dare to stay for a moment, and went straight to the palace.

Li Xuan asked the imperial physician about Li Yingqi's illness in detail, and knelt in front of the bed for a few minutes before being called out by Han Cangshui.

"Xuan'er, what are you going to do?"

Han Cangshui asked, looking around.

"Be filial in front of the father's bed, and pray for the father!"

Li Xuan's answer was quite satisfactory, which naturally made Han Cangshui even more disappointed.

"madness!"

Han Cangshui was angry: "Are you a child of the royal family? Have you ever learned the art of the emperor? There will always be only one person to sit on this throne."

"what?"

Li Xuan was terrified when he heard that.

"Whether His Majesty can wake up, and whether there are any sequelae after waking up, these are all things worth considering, and even if he wakes up without any serious problems, so what?"

Han Cangshui stared at Li Xuan: "A country cannot be without a king for a day, can't you take care of the government temporarily?"

"..."

Plop! Plop!

Li Xuan's heart was beating fast, and sweat was dripping from his forehead. He wanted to sit in that seat, but after thinking for a few minutes, he still shook his head.

What if it fails?

"waste!"

Han Cangshui couldn't stand it anymore: "You have a kind heart, and you can't bear to take the throne, but your sister? Don't forget, your performance in the Five Kingdoms Controversy was extremely bad, and Li Ziqi's excellence is beyond compare. With Li Xiu's support, what do you think? Can you still ascend the throne as emperor?"

"No... no way?"

Li Xuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Even if I want to ascend the throne, those ministers probably won't agree!"

"Are you stupid, is your princeling just a show? Let those ministers who support you write a letter. As for those neutral ministers, you should visit them in person now and hint to promise benefits."

Han Cangshui was speechless.

"This... isn't it too contemptuous of yourself?"

Li Xuan didn't want to go, he felt that he was the prince, so there was no need to be so humble.

Snapped!

Han Cangshui couldn't take it anymore, so he slapped Li Xuan directly on the face.

"As long as they ascend to the throne of God in the future, they will all kneel in front of you. Whether it is life or death, or are they allowed to be manipulated by you? Besides, this is called Corporal Li Xian! Do you understand?"

Han Cangshui growled: "Go quickly, something happened, I will take care of it for you."

Li Xuan gritted his teeth and went all out.

Because he could also feel that his aunt and Ziqi were very close, and if they joined forces to fight for the throne, he would not be enough for them.

The princelings became active, and Li Xuan kept visiting veterans and loyal ministers.

Li Yingqi had a sudden stroke, and everyone did not suspect that it was man-made. First of all, the highly skilled imperial physicians in the imperial hospital had already checked him. Moreover, although Li Yingqi was not a faint king, he was lustful by nature and had sex with women. After a while, he will be drafted every year.

Li Yingqi has quite a few sons, but most of them are mediocre, not as good as Li Xuan. In addition, Li Xuan has been the prince for ten years after all, and has a certain reputation and foundation, so when he ran around , many people decided to support him.

Seeing that Li Xuan was gaining momentum, he was getting closer and closer to the throne, and he gradually swelled up. Occasionally, he even regarded himself as me in private.

This advantage was maintained until after Li Xiu and Li Ziqi arrived in Chang'an, it began to be contained, and it even took a sharp turn for the worse.

"Why is this happening?"

Li Xuan panicked, because when he went to the ministers again, they would either pretend to be sick or perfunctory.

This is a bad sign.

Because Li Ziqi is a princess, she is not qualified to be an emperor, but now, there are ministers who support her.

...

When Han Cangshui came to the uterus and found Li Xuan, he found that this guy was drinking and was already drunk.

"what are you doing?"

Han Cangshui was very angry. At this critical moment, you actually got drunk?

"Aunt, please advise me to give up the throne for the sake of Tang."

Li Xuan cried, he respected Li Xiu very much, but today Li Xiu broke his heart.

"You agreed?"

Han Cangshui narrowed his eyes.

"Will it be useful if I don't agree? Auntie has a lot of power in the court!"

Li Xuan felt that he could not win.

"If you don't even dare to fight, you've already lost!"

Han Cangshui encouraged.

"Your Highness, is Zheng Qingfang paying respects?"

The eunuch knocked on the door and reported.

"Grandpa Zheng is here?"

Li Xuan's expression brightened: "Teacher, I'll go see Grandpa Zheng first. If he supports me, then I won't be afraid of Aunt Xiu anymore!"

Zheng Qingfang, as the elder of the three dynasties, although he has retired, has great influence.

Seeing Zheng Qingfang in the living room, Li Xuan rushed to greet him, not giving him a chance to salute: "Grandpa Zheng, your father is critically ill, you should hurry back to the court to preside over the overall situation?"

"Without you, Datang can't do it!"

Li Xuan would still say such beautiful words, so he put a high hat on Zheng Qingfang first.

Zheng Qingfang was not flattered, he just felt smug. After he insisted on saluting, he persuaded earnestly: "Your Highness, for the sake of Datang, please give way to Princess Ziqi!"

"what?"

Li Xuan was stunned, feeling like falling into an ice cave for a moment, if even Zheng Qingfang supported Li Ziqi, would he still win by himself?

"Grandpa Zheng, why is this?"

Li Xuan was anxious: "Is there anything about me that makes you dissatisfied? I can change it!"

"..."

Zheng Qingfang smiled wryly, if there was no such comparison as Li Ziqi, Li Xuan would actually be fine.

To be honest, the patriarchal Zheng Qingfang didn't really want to support Li Ziqi's ascension to the throne. After all, in the history of the Tang Dynasty, there had never been a female emperor, but Ziqi was too good, and she had Sun Mo as a teacher.

Before he came to see the crown prince, Li Xiu approached him and openly stated that he would support Li Ziqi in winning the heir apparent.

what does that mean?

Even if Li Xuan ascended to the throne of God, it would be useless. Li Xiu could launch a coup d'état, and with Sun Mo's influence in the world of famous teachers, even if Li Xuan could not be overthrown, it could still bring heavy damage to Datang.

"Your Highness, why don't you let Ziqi try first? If she doesn't do well, are you succeeding?"

Proposed by Zheng Qingfang.

"Can the emperor also try?"

Li Xuan sneered, whoever sat on it would not take the initiative to get off.

The conversation between two people broke up unhappy.

When Han Cangshui saw Li Xuan came back with a dead father's expression on his face, he knew that something was wrong.

"Teacher, that old ghost Zheng Qingfang has fallen for Li Ziqi too!"

Li Xuan was in pain: "Our odds of winning are too small."

"You want to give up?"

Han Cangshui questioned.

"what can I do?"

Li Xuan was helpless, and the two most influential people in the lobby, Li Xiu and Zheng Qingfang, both stood by Li Ziqi.

"We can only act first!"

Han Cangshui also knew that he couldn't win in simple competition, so he could only play tricks and kill them.
