"Cui's book to save Longji is based on fire and water, of course this gift is bearable, please accept Longji again!"

Just when Cui Geng was still hesitating whether to hug Li Longji's thigh in advance, this big man who would control the fate of China for decades in the future had already bowed down again!

Moreover, it is not an ordinary chief, but a kneeling salute who pushes the gold mountain and pours the jade pillar!

Puff~~

Cui Geng finally couldn't stand it, and knelt down happily for Li Longji, and said, "How kind has Weichen ever done to you?" King of Linzi County, you are really killing Weichen by doing this. ”

"Cui Shushu, get up, you deserve it." Li Dan got up, helped Cui Geng up, and said, "This kid has wanted to give you this gift for a long time. ”

Then, while holding Cui Geng, he made a look.

Okay, this time it's terrible, Li Dan's eldest son Li Chengqi, the king of Shouchun County, Li Chengyi, the second son of Hengyang County, Li Fan, the king of Baling County, and Li Ye, the king of Zhongshan County, all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cui Geng.

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief!

What's more, Li Dan's dedication is so great and unreasonable!

Cui Geng struggled to himself, and said continuously: "I can't help it, I can't help it, His Royal Highness the Prince, aren't you the longevity of Weichen?" ”

But don't look at Li Danwenwen's weakness, that strength is really not small, and he firmly pressed Cui Geng back to his seat, making him unable to move, and forcibly accepted these children's salutes.

Then, he let go of his hand and said gently: "Don't panic, although I, the prince, can't be a few days." However, there is still no problem with the four words "Chrysostom Yuyan". I said that if you can afford this gift from them, you can definitely afford it. ”

Then, he beckoned Li Longji and said, "San Lang, you can talk about Cui Shushu well." ”

"Yes!"

Li Longji stopped kneeling this time, bowed down and said: "My father said just now, our brothers are under house arrest in the palace, and father and son are not allowed to see each other for more than ten years. Thanks to Cui's return to Beijing, my brother was able to regain his freedom. Cui Shu has such a great kindness to us, how can he not stand it? ”

Cui Geng hesitated a little and said: "Although you are under house arrest, for so many years, you can't be so wronged in the palace, right?" ”

"Alas, what kind of brocade clothes?" Li Longji sighed, his face was full of bitterness, and said: "Although we have been crowned kings, which eunuch and palace maid in the palace can afford us?" As for food and clothing...... I'll tell you something. Once, on my birthday, I wanted to eat soup cakes (noodles), but I couldn't find any flour. Thanks to the old man Wang Renjiao......"

"Huh? Father-in-law? ”

Cui Geng was a little puzzled, after all, Li Longji was only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy now, how old was he at that time, how could he have a father-in-law?

Li Dan said: "Actually, it's a baby parent, and thanks to the fact that the prince played such a move, these children can grow up safely in the palace." Wang Renjiao was originally the captain of Guoyi in Ganquan Mansion, and later served as the captain of Wensi in the forbidden army, guarding the palace. ”

Cui Geng guessed that this matter might also be intentional by Wu Zetian. After all, no matter how ruthless she is, she is not a madman, she can't even care about the life or death of a few of her own grandchildren, right?

Of course, there is no need to speak for Wu Zetian now, Cui Geng said: "Little prince, please continue." ”

Li Longji said: "At that time, my father didn't dare to exchange news with us, and my father-in-law, Wang Tongjiao, was also empty in order to help our brother. In the end, there was no way, he took the purple shoulders on his body and exchanged them for a bucket of noodles, so that I could celebrate this birthday. Cui Shu thought about it, how much better could I, the prince, be than the common people at that time? Isn't it a great kindness for you to let us enjoy our wealth today? ”

"Uh......"

Things have developed so far, Cui Gengdu was a little confused, and simply asked Li Dan directly, "Your Highness first said that he was unwilling to give up the position of prince, and then said that the whole family was grateful to Weichen, isn't this a contradiction?" ”

Li Xian shook his head and said, "It's not a contradiction, it's not a contradiction at all." It's true that I'm unwilling, and it's also true thanks to Cui's writings. Especially now, Brother Wang's ascension has been decided, and my little unwillingness has long since disappeared, and only my gratitude to Cui's writings remains.

"I see!"

Cui Geng suddenly realized, routine, completely dead routine! Li Dan spared such a circle for a long time, isn't it just to show that although he has teamed up with Wu Sansi before, he has no covetousness for the throne at all now?

Thinking of this, Cui Geng nodded and said, "Weichen will definitely bring this to King Luling." ”

"Wait!" Li Dan stretched out his hand and said, "Could it be that Cui thought that this king wanted to explain the events of the day to the imperial brother?" ”

Cui Geng asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" ”

"Yes and no. In fact, when King Gu said this, he had another meaning, that is, to show merit. Cui Shushu, please think about it, in the past ten years, if it weren't for this king to be in the position of this prince, who would those open guns and hidden arrows come to? How can Brother Wang's children grow up safely? Even...... In the end, the ownership of the crown prince is not necessarily! ”

Cui Geng thought about it carefully, and this is really the truth.

Over the years that Li Dan has been the crown prince, he has been attacked by the Wu clan's open guns and arrows, and even two concubines have died because of this, including Li Longji's biological mother!

It can be said that Li Dan and the martial arts have a deep enmity like the sea. But if Wu Zetian had the slightest idea of wanting to protect the safety of the martial family, he would never consider letting Li Dan inherit the throne.

It can be said that Li Dan has become Li Xian's shield over the years. If the place is changed, the one who is ready to take the position now is Li Dan.

Cui Geng was a little puzzled and said: "Even if you don't be the crown prince, a throne is indispensable." Even if you show your skills, it doesn't seem to be of much use. ”

Li Dan frowned slightly, and said slowly: "It can't be said to be completely useless, in fact, ...... I want to use this credit to make a deal with Cui Shu and the imperial brother. ”

"Deal? What is the deal? ”

"Li Gongzi, please come out."

As Li Dan patted his palm twice, a person walked out from behind the screen, arched his hand slightly, and said, "Brother Cui, don't come to harm?" ”

Cui Geng gritted his teeth and said, "It's you?" Li Xiu? ”

Li Xiu shook it to the end and said, "Yes, it's down." In the past, there were many things that offended Cui's writings and King Luling, and I hope to forgive me. ”

Cui Geng sneered and said, "Forgive me? You want to kill two birds with one stone, and at the same time take the lives of Cui and King Luling, even if I can forgive you. Do you think King Luling can forgive you? ”

"Cui's writings, please take a break from the wrath of thunder." Li Dan hurriedly said: "This is the deal that this king said." I want to use this little credit in exchange for you and King Luling no longer pursuing Li Gongzi's affairs that day. Alas, in fact, what Li Xiu did was actually for me......"

Then, he did not hide it, and said in detail that Li Xiu was the master of the five surnames and the Seven Hope Secret Hall, and he was deeply afraid of Cui Geng's seizure of power, and Li Xiu's assassination of Li Xian for his position as the crown prince.

In the end, Li Dan said quite sincerely: "Thousands of mistakes, they are all the fault of this prince, please raise your noble hand and let Li Gongzi go." Other than that...... I can also do one last thing for the royal brother to make up for it a little. ”

Cui Geng asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"I want to take the initiative to go to the table and ask Your Majesty to change the crown prince."

"This ......"

Hearing this, Cui Geng was really moved.

King Luling's ascension to the throne, although it is almost a sure thing, as long as Wu Zetian does not make an order for a day, there will be variables for a day.

In addition, how can the position of the crown prince that was snatched by someone be given up, and it seems that he has returned to his destiny?

And the most important thing, Li Dan is not without supporters, what if there is another Zhang Gongzi and Song Gongzi who come out to make trouble? If Li Dan can take the initiative to admit defeat, he can greatly avoid the internal friction of the pro-Li faction.

As for Li Gongzi? It's not worth mentioning if you want to compare such a significant benefit.

Thinking of this, Cui Geng said: "Okay, just according to what the prince said." Wei Chen didn't think he had heard of it before. But the Luling King's side ......"

Li Dan said quite sincerely: "Please also ask Cui to write a few good words." ”

To tell the truth, Li Dan was able to take the initiative to take the blame for the ninth prince today, and Cui Geng was really impressed by the loud voice.

If it is said that the matter at the banquet of King Luling is impossible to quibble. As for Li Xiu's matter, Li Dan can completely push it off.

However, no, Li Dan not only did not hide it at all, but also took the initiative to tell him bluntly, so there was no other explanation except to try his best to protect his subordinates.

In historical records, Li Xian and Li Dan are a pair of cowardly and incompetent unlucky eggs. But after contact, Cui Geng realized that he was completely wrong.

Li Xiancheng's mansion is quite deep, and he plans and then acts; Li Dan treats people with sincerity and puts his heart into people, and has the style of Liu Da Ear of the Three Kingdoms.

These two people are not simple, but they were covered by the empress of Wu Zetian's generation.

……

……

Out of the prince's mansion, Cui Geng didn't even return home, and directly visited Li Xian, the king of Luling, and told Li Dan what he meant.

Unexpectedly by Cui Geng, Li Xian hesitated a little and said, "Cui Shu, do you really want to let Li Xiu go?" ”

"What kind of storm can a small master of the Secret Hall with five surnames and seven looks be able to stir up?"

Li Xiandao: "That's not the case, you must not put the word "little" on the body of the secret hall. For the secret hall, this king also knows a little bit about it. This organization was originally established by the five surnames and seven wangs at the time of the Five Rebellions, and the original intention was to preserve the fire for the family. However, by now, the Secret Hall has long had nothing to do with the purpose of its establishment, and has developed into a ...... Monster! ”

"Monsters?"

"Not bad! Now the five surnames and seven wangs can only decide the person who is the master of the secret hall according to tradition, but they cannot manage the specific affairs of the secret hall, and the two sides are more like cooperative relations than superiors and subordinates. If the master of the secret hall has the ability, he will naturally be able to obey the secret hall. But if the hall master doesn't help, the secret hall will do its own thing. ”

Cui Gengdao: "Then if the five surnames and seven hopes choose a person from a loyal family as the master of the secret hall and control the secret hall, won't they be able to take back the control of the secret hall?" ”

"How is that possible?" Li Xian smiled and said, "The reason why this king said that the secret hall is a monster is because its secret strength is very huge, even if the five surnames and seven wangs are combined, they may not be their opponents. No one who holds such a great deal of power will not give it up on their own initiative. So ......"

Li Xian stared at Cui Geng's eyes and said, "Grab Li Xiu's handle, and this king can threaten the five surnames and seven wangs, and let them all support you as the new master of the secret hall." With such a big power, don't you want to be tempted? To tell you the truth, don't say it's you, even this king feels hard to let go of now. ”
