"So that he is not so down, not so haggard, and if he can still eat and drink well in the dungeon, I will definitely visit him." Duan Shaojun looked at the wine glass in front of him, took a deep breath and said quietly.

"Then, I will let him know what life is better than death, but unfortunately, after listening to my brother's words, this person is completely waiting for death, showing his superiority in front of such a person, there is nothing to achieve at all, it is better not to go." Duan Shaojun waved his hand and said disappreciably.

Hearing the new image of Xu Shou's guy depicted by Hu Da, Duan Shaojun suddenly felt bored. I like revenge, but I prefer to slap the other person's face

。 And an unlucky ghost like Xu Shou, squatting in the dark dungeon, gnawing on the shriveled pickle nest every day, feeling nostalgic for the good times of the past, and his heart is full of fear of the destruction of his family.

For such an unlucky ghost who has completely lost any chance to struggle, Duan Shaojun really has no interest in appreciating it.

Seeing Duan Shaojun's expression, Hu Da opened his mouth to say something, and nodded after thinking about it. "Yes, the dying man, from the moment he stabbed His Highness in the back, he was already certain to die."

"I don't care much about his ending, I'm more concerned with the fate of our Tang Prime Minister Zhao Linfu, to be honest, I'm really looking forward to it, and I don't know how the Son of Heaven will react when he learns that his favorite granddaughter was almost killed by his favorite minister......" Duan Dagongzi said with a fascinated face.

When Huda heard this, he really didn't know how to make this cavity except for rolling his eyes.

In the Jingshi, the usual calm is still maintained, but under this calm surface, there is an undercurrent surging. Prime Minister Zhao Linfu is in charge of the government, and the military power of the Beijing division is under the command of General Duan, who is over seventy years old and has become a general since the time of Emperor Zhongzong.

It can be said that at least nearly half of the generals of the Tang Dynasty were promoted from his command, and it was precisely because of him that it was difficult for Zhao Linfu's hand to be inserted into the army.

And now, Ximen Zhongxiong is in the back garden of General Duan, sitting against General Duan, his hair is like snow, but his body is as burly as a mountain, and General Duan, who still looks tall and straight, caresses his snow-white long beard and groans silently.

Ximen Zhongxiong also sat silently, waiting for General Duan to speak. In the distance, the sound of silk and bamboo came faintly, and the lights shone in the night, flickering and uncertain, like fireflies.

"I didn't expect things to be so serious...... It was really unexpected by the old man. After stroking his beard for a long time, Old General Duan sighed faintly and said.

Old General Duan's brows furrowed extremely tightly, and his tone was heavy and authentic. "Now that the prince must have arrived at Youxian Palace today, at this time, if the old man makes a slight move, then Zhao Linfu will not know?"

"Old general, Zhang Shangshu is already preparing to go to Youxian Palace and personally face the Son of Heaven." Ximen Zhongxiong thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

Old General Duan was slightly stunned, narrowed his eagle eyes and slowly shook his head. "If Jiuling wants to go in person, it will inevitably attract Zhao Linfu's attention, if the news is leaked, then Jingshi will be in chaos."

"That's why the lower officials are here, and they also ask General Duan to preside over the overall situation." Ximen Zhongxiong bowed solemnly to Old General Duan.

"Before the Son of Heaven left the Beijing Division, he entrusted the military power to the old man, but Zhongxiong, you don't have to forget, if the Beijing Division is not appeased, the old man will transfer troops and suppress it, and he Zhao Linfu needs to sign the party." Old General Duan rubbed his eyebrows in distress and said helplessly.

Ximen Zhongxiong couldn't help but be stunned: "This, how should this be?" Ximen Zhongxiong's heart couldn't help but lie in a big groove, and he couldn't imagine that the Son of Heaven would leave such a stalk here.

The military power of the Jingshi was left to General Duan, but General Duan wanted to mobilize troops and horses, but he needed Zhao Linfu to sign it. Of course, Zhao Linfu has no right to mobilize troops and horses, but in this way, General Duan wants to send troops to arrest Zhao Linfu, the real culprit behind the murder of Princess Zhaoyang, and he actually wants Zhao Linfu to sign it, unless Zhao Linfu is insane, otherwise he will never sign such an order.

"If the old man transfers troops without authorization, do you think that even after the Son of Heaven disposes of Zhao Linfu, he will let the old man go?" Old General Duan looked at the Ximen Zhongxiong who was squatting in front of him and made a fool, and said helplessly

。

When Ximen Zhongxiong heard this, he could only be speechless, yes, today's son is no longer the wise and martial arts and elegant son of heaven in the past.

If General Duan mobilized the soldiers and horses of the Beijing division without authorization and arrested the prime minister of the current dynasty, even if the prime minister was the real murderer of Princess Zhaoyang, even if General Duan had a reason, with the current temper and style of action, the fate of General Duan would not be much better than that of Zhao Linfu.

"Zhongxiong, the old man is really powerless, all the old man can do is to control the little bastards under his hands and prevent them from messing around, and you'd better inform Zhang Jiuling and let him not act rashly, as for informing the Son of Heaven, the old man will send people to face him......" General Duan said, picked up the tea on the table, drank it all, stretched out his big hand, and patted Ximen Zhongxiong's shoulder.

"You don't have to worry too much, it's been more than half a year, if Zhao Linfu had found out, he should have found it a long time ago, how could it be that there has been no movement now, what we have to do now is to stabilize the Jingshi as the first priority, everything, wait for the Son of Heaven to decide."

Ximen Zhongxiong could only nod helplessly, bid farewell to General Duan, and walked out of the General's Mansion, looking at the brightly lit night of the Beijing Division, Ximen Zhongxiong shook his head weakly, turned over and jumped on the back of the horse to beat the horse.

"Grandfather, do we really ignore it?" Duan Shoujian, the eldest grandson of General Duan, didn't know when he sat in the place where Ximen Zhongxiong was sitting before, looked at his grandfather with a puzzled expression.

"If the Son of Heaven were Shengming, Zhao Linfu would not have the power he has now." Old General Duan looked at the eldest grandson of the weak crown, with a kind face, and patiently explained. "The important thing is that Zhao Linfu plotted to kill Her Royal Highness the princess, is there any evidence?"

"Of course there is evidence, grandfather, didn't you send someone to help Her Royal Highness the princess regain the military power of Zuo Yu Lin Wei?" Duan Shoujian's face was as natural as a matter of course.

"Shou Jian, if the Son of Heaven knew about this, do you think the Son of Heaven would be happy that the old man helped his granddaughter regain military power? Or will you be annoyed that the old man secretly did such a big thing, and he didn't even notice him? Old General Duan looked at his grandson, sighed leisurely, and asked in a low voice.

Duan Shoujian thought seriously for a long time, and his face couldn't help but look a little ugly. "I'm afraid that the Son of Heaven will be deeply displeased, and maybe, he will also send his father who is in charge of Shuozhou......"

"It's not just your father, our family is disgraced and dismissed, it's all light." Old General Duan sneered and said lightly. "Today's Son of Heaven is not the Son of Heaven in the past. What he wants is an obedient courtier, not a courtier who is good at making claims, no matter how great the merit is, as long as it touches his bottom line, no matter who it is, the Son of Heaven will not let it go......"

"In that case, father, why do you want to help Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Duan Shoujian couldn't help but lower his voice and asked.

Old General Duan sighed lightly and said slowly: "In addition to looking at the face of your sister-in-law and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, Her Royal Highness the Princess is the best talent in the Tang Imperial Family, if she is in one day, I will have one more help from a traitor like Zhao Linfu who can hold Zhao Linfu hostage." ”

"The important thing is that Her Royal Highness the princess returns to the Tang Dynasty, and the day of Zhao Linfu's destruction is not far away. At least you can return the Tang Dynasty to the opposition a Ning Jing. ”

"I see...... The grandfather is far-sighted, and the grandson is not as good as the grandson. After thinking about it for a long time, Duan Shoujian nodded with understanding, and looked at his scheming grandfather with admiration.

"Hehe, good grandson, it's not that you are inferior to the old man, it's just that you still have little experience, and when you reach your father's age, you will understand that everything needs to be considered carefully in order to be able to stand still."
