Chapter 533: Layout (Part II)
To go or not to go? After discussing for a long time, the gentleman did not come to a unified conclusion.
But now it is obvious that if you choose to listen to Li Chengqian and follow his instructions, then the identity of the person who goes will automatically change to the prince's lineage, and this is not just a representative of the gentlemen's own wishes.
Because in the eyes of those who have a heart, they also represent their own family.
Such a choice is tantamount to gambling with the family, although he believes that Li Chengqian will not rebel, but sometimes many things cannot be explained, because there are not a few people who have died.
On the contrary, if you do not do what the letter says, then it is equivalent to automatically standing outside the circle of descendants, and the degree of trust in the future will inevitably be affected, although it will not be suppressed, but it will inevitably have no chance with the future inner circle.
How to choose, what to do? The gentlemen were hesitant.
Cheng Chumo chose to follow the arrangement in the letter, he thought it was quite funny.
Li Chongyi disagreed, his son is Li Xiaogong, and as a member of the royal family, he does not have to worry about the issue of nuclear non-inner circle.
Changsun Chong, Tang Shanzhi and others couldn't make up their minds, and they had been hesitating, there was too much gambling in this matter, and the children of civil officials who were cautious by nature always had to think more.
However, despite this, no one doubts whether Li Chengqian wants to rebel, and there is no need to think about it at all, as long as Li Chengqian is not stupid, he will not make such a choice that outweighs the losses.
He was too young, only thirteen years old, and most likely he would have rebelled to become a puppet rather than an emperor. This is something that even gentlemen can figure out, and it makes no sense that Li Chengqian, who is an ordinary person, can't figure it out.
"Let's go, it's going to be fine, think about it, lurking, assassination, how aggressive." Cheng Chumo has been agitating, with the old Cheng family's fear that the world will not be chaotic, it is normal for him to be like this.
"I'm not participating, you can go." Li Chongyi shrugged his shoulders.
"Get out, we've been together for five months, what else do you and I have, let's go together, it's decided." A bear-like slap slapped on Li Chongyi's shoulder that had just risen, and Cheng Chumo said with a grin: "Let's also go and save the old man, so that they will always look down on us." ”
"You're saying it simply, what if something goes wrong? I don't believe that Your Majesty has not arranged this kind of thing, so forget it. ”
"Why are you so cowardly......"
The gentlemen have been discussing the question of whether to go or not, and in Jiucheng Palace, Li Er is also making his arrangements.
All the key roads and checkpoints are guarded by left and right guards, and a large number of troops are stationed at the foot of the surrounding mountains to prevent anyone from attacking from the mountains.
Jiucheng Palace is located in the plateau hilly and gully area, surrounded by mountains, there is a barrier to the east of the mountain, west of the Phoenix Mountain, there is Shijiu Mountain in the south, the north of the Bicheng Mountain, such a large place, there are many places to defend, one or two thousand people scattered to the surrounding mountains can not even stir up a little splash.
Therefore, Li Er's key defense place was Jiucheng Palace itself, and the five thousand Xuanjia troops changed into ordinary clothes and armor, replaced Zhi Jinwu, and were managed by Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong.
The water source is a key place to prevent people from poisoning, and the same is true for food, and cooks even need to be supervised by guys disguised as Jingo.
After the defense was arranged, Lao Li began his leisurely vacation life, playing chess with civil officials every day, drinking with military generals, and living a good and comfortable life.
But within three days, Lao Li found that it was not a good thing to be with a group of drunken maniacs and old killers. These old guys are typical drunken maniacs, especially after drinking the high degree of loose white that they got from Li Chengqian, they couldn't live that day.
The rockery was smashed, the trees were uprooted, the stone lions were moved seven or eight places in one day, and the ground was full of pits. Finally, Lao Li was ruthless, Cheng Fairy, Duan Zhixuan, Wei Chigong, Li Xiaogong and other old goods were all driven to the outermost periphery of Jiucheng Palace.
There's nothing but the city wall, so if you want to smash it, go with the city wall and see if the concrete wall can stop these drunken people.
Of course, on this trip to Jiucheng Palace, the happiest people were Li Ke, Li Tai, Changle and others.
Children are always happier than adults, fishing, cycling, playing cards, and not having to go to class is simply not too comfortable. It's just that when they have fun, Changle and the others always think of the poor guy who was left in the Chang'an Palace.
"Queen Mother, it's a pity that the eldest brother can't come." The old man held a banquet in front, and Changle took Yuzhang to the palace of Empress Changsun to chat.
"Lizhi, you are older now, don't always pester your brother." Empress Eldest Sun doted on the two little girls in her arms, and said softly: "Your brother is the crown prince, he has a lot of things to do, and he can't always accompany you to run crazy." ”
"Lizhi knows, and she will try to bother her eldest brother as little as possible in the future." Changle nodded very obediently, as for what he thought in his heart, just looking at those big smart eyes, he knew that what he thought and what he said were definitely not the same thing.
"Liz, your bodyguard has changed?" With a chance glance, the eldest grandson saw through the glass in the window and found that he did not see Changle's guards.
"Yes, my brother lent me his guard, her name is Bai Yuening, and she has a very strange nickname, called White Bat, but I like to call her Xiaobai. She was so fast that she defeated all the guards around me, and her voice was so good, Lizi had never heard such a beautiful voice. ”
Changle leaned on the arms of the eldest grandson, and said excitedly, thinking of Bai Yuening's power that day, with a three-edged thorn in his right hand and a tiger tooth in his left hand, he put down the four guards in one breath, and a look of envy flashed in his eyes.
But there is no way, Changle has been weak since he was a child, and he has nothing to do with her for the rest of his life.
"Ahem! If you like it, let her stay with you, and tell your brother when you return to Chang'an. Empress Changsun coughed lightly, as if her throat was a little uncomfortable.
Changle raised his head, looked at Empress Changsun a little nervously, remembered that before leaving Beijing, Li Chengqian told her to pay attention to the physical condition of her eldest grandson from time to time, and couldn't help asking: "Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?" Is it unwell? ”
"It's okay, maybe it's cold at night." Empress Eldest Sun smiled unconcernedly.
"Let Doctor Sun come and show you, don't get caught in the cold."
"Doctor Sun?" Empress Changsun was stunned for a moment, and there was indeed a royal doctor accompanying her in Jiucheng Palace, but there didn't seem to be any Sun Divine Doctor.
"It's Sun Simiao's Divine Doctor, my brother said that those imperial doctors in the Imperial Doctor's Department are all waste, and he specially asked Divine Doctor Sun to accompany him." Changle explained.
"Sun Simiao? The Sun Simiao who rescued Du Ruhui? Empress Changsun thought about it and found some deeds about Sun Simiao from her memory.
