Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As the intelligence leader, Wu Meiniang naturally knew the war very well. Whenever she heard that Li Yintian's shameless achievements were all attributed to her, she was amused and giggled.  And when Li Min came to the end, he concealed the tryst between Li Shimin and the Queen of Silla. After all, it was a family matter of their Li family and it was really difficult to spread it.  However, Li Min told Wu Meiniang verbatim about the conversation between Li Shimin and himself.

    The reason for this is mainly because there are too few think-tank talents around Li Min. Lu Hong is one, but the conversation was originally about them, the old ministers of the Liang Kingdom, so naturally he cannot be allowed to help as a consultant.  Among the remaining people, Yan Bei is just a fool, and talking to him is in vain. The only one who has the ability and qualifications to help Li Min with detailed information is Wu Meiniang, who is only a teenager.

    Wu Meiniang was in charge of intelligence matters and knew a lot about Li Min's affairs. She had also investigated Lu Qing and others, but she never thought that their group would be related to Li Min's princess, and the identity of the princess  What's even more surprising is that she is still the princess of Nanliang more than ten years ago. Lu Qing and others are all former ministers of the princess.

    After listening to this, Wu Meiniang was excited but also a little disappointed. What was exciting was that Li Min trusted her so much that she even told her such secret things without any reservation. This showed that in the other person's heart, she already regarded herself as a person.  Someone you can absolutely trust.  However, Princess Qi's life experience is so amazing, and the old ministers of Liang State are all under Li Min and have been entrusted with important tasks. In this way, Princess Qi's position is extremely strong, even if she can't see her in the future.  Light.  But she still couldn't compete with others, so she was destined to be unable to be Li Min's first wife.  Thinking of this, Wu Meiniang, who had always been proud, was naturally a little disappointed.

    "Husband, Your Majesty is so kind to your son. Not only did he not blame anyone for such a big thing, but he also helped you analyze the shortcomings of appointing Lu Hong and those who were just Su Dingfang. I'm afraid he still can't suppress Lu Qing and Hu Li  It seems that His Highness has to find a way to find more generals." Although Wu Meiniang felt disappointed, she did not show it.  After thinking deeply for a while, he spoke.

    "I have this plan too. My father asked me to go back to Chang'an for a while, so I just took advantage of this opportunity. I want to find a way to attract more people, and it's time to sort out the property in Chang'an." Li Min nodded in agreement.  , after being away from Chang'an for such a long time, it was time for him to go back and take a look. In addition, although Wang Zihao did a good job, there were some things that required his personal intervention.

    "Husband, now is not a good time to go back to Chang'an, but His Majesty has ordered that you have to go back. It seems that the city of Chang'an will not be able to calm down this time even if it wants to." Hearing that Li Shimin wanted Li Min to return to Chang'an.  Wu Meiniang sighed and said with a worried look.

    "What, what happened to the situation in Chang'an?" Li Min was stunned after hearing this, and immediately reacted and asked.

    "Haha, what else can change? Isn't it caused by your two good brothers? One was in power and the other was in danger. But now the situation has reversed. The one who was in danger turned around and got the position of superintendent of the country. The one who was in power was  They were dissatisfied and caused trouble everywhere, and now the whole city of Chang'an is in a state of chaos. If Duke Wei and the Prime Minister were not there to control it, even the war in Goguryeo might have been affected."

    Wu Meiniang said with a smile, but when she talked about Li Min's two brothers, she showed disdain. In her opinion, her husband Li Min was hundreds of times better than those two brothers in every aspect.  , and the throne of the Tang Dynasty should also be occupied by capable people. Among all the princes, when it comes to talent, naturally the husband next to them is the first, and only one's husband is qualified to sit on the throne.

    Although Li Min roughly understood what was going on after hearing this, he still asked for some details in detail, and then he understood what Li Chengqian and Li Tai had done in Chang'an.  When Li Shimin handed over the position of supervising the country to Li Chengqian, the Tang prince did a very good job at the beginning and handled government affairs in an orderly manner. Even Fang Xuanling praised him highly.  But with Li Tai's trouble later, things completely got out of control.

    First, Li Tai asked people to spread rumors about Li Chengqian's foot disability. He also exaggerated the facts and said that Li Chengqian's foot disease was very serious.  The fact that the prince had a foot problem was only spread among the nobles in the court at first. After all, it was related to the state. Those who knew about it only talked about it in private and did not dare to spread it randomly. Therefore, the common people did not know much.  At the same time, Li Chengqian's abnormal sexual orientation was also announced to undermine the other party's popularity.  Although Li Tai thought he did these things very secretly, and no one could find any evidence to prove that he did it, everyone knew it.

    As soon as these two rumors came out, they really had a big effect. There was an unwritten rule for being an official in the Tang Dynasty, that is, there were certain requirements for the appearance of officials. They did not have to be very good-looking, but at least they had to have sound limbs.  Good appearance.  This is even true for an official, let aloneThe prince of a country.  As for the other abnormal sexual orientation, if it were placed on ordinary people, it would be nothing. The ancients were much more open-minded than later generations imagined, and they also held a very tolerant attitude towards homosexuality. They would only think that the other person's morality was lacking.  However, virtue is one of the most important qualities for a prince, so public opinion was very unfavorable to Li Chengqian for a while.

    As these two rumors reached Li Chengqian's ears, the proud prince was so angry that he abandoned serious political affairs and began to use his power to suppress Li Tai in a series of ways. The most important thing was that he  Those who usually rely on Li Tai will be demoted or killed if Li Chengqian finds any minor mistakes.

    Li Tai was originally dissatisfied and saw that the position of prince was already very close to him. However, Li Chengqian took the position of prisoner again, making the position of prince suddenly become extremely strong. Therefore, he was also very unwilling to take revenge. He originally wanted to take revenge.  He vented his anger, which resulted in severe revenge from Li Chengqian. With his temperament, he naturally would not give up. He mobilized all his power and changed his ways to disgust Li Chengqian, which resulted in the conflict between the two rising from covert to open.

    Fang Xuanling and Li Jing persuaded Li Chengqian many times, asking him to show the courage of an elder brother, not to be as knowledgeable as Li Tai, and to focus on government affairs. In the past, Li Chengqian could still listen to these words, but since he was lame  After that, his temperament changed drastically. In the words of later generations, he became very inferior and sensitive, and his ideas were a bit extreme. Therefore, he couldn't listen to him at all, and he still went his own way.

    Later, Fang Xuanling saw that the two brothers were really making trouble, so she had to go into the palace and report everything to Queen Changsun.  When the empress of the Tang Dynasty heard what her two biological sons had done, she became so angry that she called her two sons to the palace and severely criticized them.  Li Chengqian and Li Tai were still in awe of their mother, so they were both frightened. After being scolded, they both became more honest. Although intrigues were inevitable, they did not dare to go too far.

    The current situation in Chang'an City is like this. The conflict between Li Chengqian and Li Tai has been suppressed by Queen Changsun for the time being. On the surface, it seems peaceful. However, after Li Shimin returns, someone will definitely report what his two sons did to him.  He still doesn't know how Li Shimin will deal with it then?  As a strong contender for the crown prince position, Li Min really should not return to Chang'an to wade into the troubled waters between his two brothers before the situation is completely clear.

    After Wu Meiniang finished explaining the situation in Chang'an, she looked at Li Min hesitantly, and then said: "Husband, the fight between the Crown Prince and the King of Wei is a good opportunity for us. Do you want Meiniang to do something? It's best if we can  See some blood and detonate their conflict completely. If your Majesty returns to Chang'an, you will definitely be disappointed with the two of them. By then, as the most favored prince, the crown prince position will be yours.  "

    "No, you must not move!" Li Min was startled after hearing this. He absolutely believed in Wu Meiniang's ability, and there were also Yang Shi's brothers in Chang'an City, plus there was a man with hands and eyes that could reach the sky.  With Wang Zihao as his assistant, he can definitely do what Wu Meiniang said.  However, Li Min didn't want to get involved in the fight between Li Chengqian and Li Tai. It was a bottomless whirlpool, and he couldn't escape if he got even a little bit involved. He just had to do his own thing.

    Wu Meiniang was not surprised to hear Li Min's refusal. Although Li Min didn't say it explicitly, she could feel that her husband seemed not very interested in the throne of the Tang Dynasty, but the more he behaved like this, the more favored he seemed to be.  , and His Majesty is also very strange today. He is very indulgent towards Li Min's son, and even allows him to recruit troops and horses in Dengzhou. I really don't know what the father and son are going to do?

    Li Min didn't say anything, but Wu Meiniang never asked. This was also her cleverness. But soon she thought of another thing, so she said, "By the way, husband, there is another very important thing. It's from Chang'an."  According to the news from Mr. Wang, two very important people have also come to Dengzhou."

    "Huh? What do you mean?" Wu Meiniang's words were a bit unclear, and Li Min didn't react for a while.

    "It's like this. Mr. Wang sent news that Prince Kuang wants to see you. It seems there is something very important. I hope you can meet him. Some time ago, Yang Shi's men discovered that there are two demeanor  Extraordinary young people came to Dengzhou, and later it was confirmed that one of them was the prince. As for the other one, haha, husband, guess who he is?" When Wu Meiniang said this, she suddenly asked with a naughty smile.

    "Mei Niang, you can't guess this husband, but that Wang Guang is not simple. The person who can come with him is definitely not an ordinary person!" Li Min pinched Wu Meiniang's face affectionately, and his eyes revealed that  A bit curious.  Wang Kuangke was tricked by him last time, and now he came to find him. He must have some important secret.

    "Haha, the other person is not only not an ordinary person, but also comes from a very prominent family. This person's name is Cui Yu, from the Cui family in Qinghe."??And he has a very high status in the clan, and I also got reliable information that the other party is probably surrendering to His Highness!  "Wu Meiniang looked proud and revealed the identity of the other party.
