Li Chongfu cried: "Queen Mother...... Queen Mother, she wants to kill me! She said that it was because I told the truth, so she was so tired that King Shao died tragically, and she wanted to use me to compensate King Shao for his life, and her father was about to be moved by her. Now I'm in a difficult situation, and I can't even prepare a big gift. Please also ask my brother-in-law to say a few kind words for me in front of the queen mother for the sake of the family. ”

"That's ......"

Cui Geng understood with a slight change of thought that this was really possible.

Li Chongfu's wife is Zhang Yingxia, Zhang Changzong's niece. And Li Chongrun, the king of Shao, was killed by Zhang Changzong precisely because he spoke ill of the Zhang family.

So, is the whistleblower Zhang Yingxia? Is Li Chongfu involved in this?

None of them are unlikely.

After all, as long as Li Chongrun lives, he is the natural heir of Li Xian. And Li Xian was already the crown prince at that time, and after Wu Zetian's death, he ascended the throne and sat in the palace, which is almost a sure fact.

Ventilation and reporting, not only to please the Zhang brothers, but also to take over Li Chongrun's position, can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, this is just speculation. It is also possible that Li Chongfu was wronged, and Empress Wei was purely angry with Li Chongfu because his son died.

In historical records, since Li Chongrun's death, Empress Wei has become more and more displeased with the two older concubines, exiled one and forced the other to rebel, only Li Chongmao, the king of Beihai, was still a child, so he survived.

It is precisely because Li Chongmao is too young that after Li Xian's death, he can't control the situation. Li Longji took the opportunity to launch a coup d'Γ©tat and killed Empress Wei, Li Bao'er and others, and Li Xian's family was considered to be out of business.

Thinking of this, Cui Geng suddenly found that a very grim fact was placed in front of him, should he completely change history and prevent Li Longji from becoming emperor?

Of course, there are many disadvantages to doing this.

In the past, it was all a small fight, and it basically did not affect the advantage of his foresight. If it really changes history dramatically, it will be completely on the same starting line as everyone else.

In addition, Li Longji was a good emperor who created the "prosperous era of Kaiyuan", even if he was mediocre in his later years, which caused the Anshi Rebellion. If someone else becomes the emperor, he may not do a better job than him.

Of course, the benefits of changing history are also obvious.

First of all, the relationship between himself and Li Longji is by no means good, and there are even many conflicts.

Secondly, after he married Li Bao'er, after Li Longji ascended the throne, could he tolerate himself in power? Completely impossible.

In history, Li Longji became friendly with Princess Taiping's son Xue Chongjian, and Xue Chongjian even fought against Princess Taiping for Li Longji's sake, and participated in Li Longji's "congenital coup" against Princess Taiping.

However, how did Li Longji repay Xue Chongjian? On the surface, he announced that he would be "regarded as an imperial prince", but in fact he was demoted to an official position. In the end, Xue Chongjian died depressed in the position of Yuanzhou's other driver.

Xue Chongjian is still like this, let alone himself?

For a while, Cui Geng was really difficult to decide.

Li Chongfu saw that Cui Geng was silent, and said anxiously: "What? Cui Xiang also thinks that I really killed King Shao? Xiao Wang can swear to God, this matter has nothing to do with me at all! ”

"I don't have to swear." Cui Gengdao: "It's just that the lower officials have something unclear, and I hope that the prince will give advice." ”

Cui Xiang asked.

"I heard that you and Niu Xian'er are in love? Love her like a treasure? ”

"That's true."

"Then how is your relationship with Princess Zhang Yingxia?"

Li Chongfu sighed and said, "She? She is my wife, Zhang Changzong's niece. At the beginning, it was the father and the queen mother who made the decision to facilitate this marriage. I don't like anything I don't like, so I'll make do with her. ”

"That's ......" Cui Geng said slowly: "Have you ever thought about killing your wife Mingzhi?" ”

"What killed his wife Mingzhi?"

"Zhang Changzong and today's son are enemies who share the same sky, and now that he has fallen, his niece is still your princess, isn't it appropriate? Your Majesty didn't make you the crown prince, is this one of the reasons? Did the queen make a fuss about this reason and attack you? Now that the queen is pressing step by step, have you never thought of killing Zhang Yingxia to relieve yourself of pressure? ”

"No, absolutely not!"

Li Chongfu suddenly stood up and sneered: "Is it possible, this is the idea that Cui Xiang gave Xiao Wang?" Hehe, it's just that a man can't shelter his woman from the wind and rain, and he has to exchange her blood for his own safety. I'm sorry, you can think of this idea, but Xiao Wang can't do it. Today is a trip for Xiao Wang Bai and farewell! ”

After finishing speaking, his face was full of iron, and he turned around and left without any delay.

"Slow down!" Cui Geng hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile on his face: "Lord Wang, don't leave in a hurry, the lower official said that there is only one way to save you?" ”

Li Chongfu stopped and said, "What? What else can you do? ”

"It's not just that there's another way, it's ......"

After a slight pause, Cui Geng's face turned pale, stretched out his hand, and said with a straight face: "Congratulations, King Qian Tose, you have passed the test of the lower officials." I can now confirm that you will not kill your own brother for the sake of glory and wealth. In fact, if you use the method I came up with just now, the lower officials will stand by and watch. A person with a cold nature is not worthy of being rescued by the lower officials at all. ”

Although Li Chongfu didn't know the etiquette of "shaking hands", he still reached out knowingly and said, "So, did Cui Xiang agree to help me?" ”

"Of course."

"Then what method are you going to use to solve the misunderstanding of the queen mother about me?"

"Is this...... It can only be counted as one step at a time. ”

Cui Geng has a lot of methods, but it is very difficult to think of any significant effects, including the method of "killing his wife Mingzhi" before.

The key is that Empress Wei suspects that Li Chongfu framed Li Chongjun, which is similar to the psychological effect of stealing an axe from a neighbor, no matter what Li Chongfu does, she will suspect that Li Chongfu did this because there is a ghost in his heart.

In the end, Cui Geng decided to take a three-pronged approach.

First of all, he blew the pillow wind on Li Bao'er's side, and asked her to help Li Chongfu say good things in front of Li Xian and Empress Wei. Regardless of the effect of Empress Wei for the time being, Li Xian spoiled this daughter abnormally, and was never under Empress Wei, Li Chongfu's little life was temporarily saved.

Secondly, let Li Chongfu go to the book and ask Li Xian to move Li Chongrun's coffin from Luoyang to Qianling for burial, and "make the tomb a mausoleum".

"Mausoleum" is the special name of the emperor's tomb, which is the biggest "posthumous glory" that Li Chongrun can get. I hope that after Empress Wei learns about this, she can relieve the grievances in her heart a little.

Finally, and most importantly, Li Chongfu went to the table and asked Li Chongjun to be the crown prince, indicating that he had absolutely no intention of becoming the crown prince.

The three moves came out together, Wei Hou temporarily stopped, and Li Chongfu gradually stabilized his position.

Cui Geng only planned to help this, after all, whether to keep Li Chongfu as the emperor, or go with the flow, and let Li Longji be the emperor, he has not yet made up his mind.

However, just when his attention was drawn into this battle for the crown prince, he was unaware that an enemy behind him showed his fangs......

On this day, outside the gate of Chengtian.

Knock knock~~

The blue sky is white, and the drums resounded nine times. Two or three hundred ragged people, both men and women, fell to their knees and wailed loudly.

The first person is in his forties, with a stout figure and dark skin.

While beating the Dengwen drum vigorously, he shouted loudly, "Wrong, wrong! Prime Minister Cui Geng and Princess Anle forcibly seized the people's land, Chang'an County did not dare to take care of it, the Criminal Department pretended to be deaf and dumb, and Yushitai was silent. I also hope that Your Majesty will be the master of the small people and give us small people a way to live! ”

And what's going on?

The onlookers looked at each other, secretly thinking, Cui Gengfu is rival the country, can he do such a tasteless thing? I'm afraid there's something strange about it.

However, looking at what the man did, it didn't look like a hypocrisy. In the end, who is right and which is wrong, today ...... I'm afraid it's a good show!
