Li Linfu really didn't expect Xiao Yi to be so courageous, let alone send him to his door.
To put it bluntly, he still underestimated Xiao Yi.
In other words, he was planning with the thinking of the ancients, while Xiao Yi was doing things with the mentality of a time traveler.
Xiao Yi's idea is very simple, the worst he can do is die.
Then there is no choice but to die standing.
There is no reason to die on your knees.
The situation is extremely critical.
The two sides can be said to be at war with each other.
After Xiao Yi gave the order, Lu Chong would definitely draw his sword directly. With Lu Ming's guidance, he believed that His Highness the Crown Prince would have backup plans and would not do such an impulsive thing.
Li Linfu did not dare to continue to anger Xiao Yi, but took a deep breath to calm down.
It's time.
If Xiao Yi is really angered, his life will be decided here.
People died.
All bets are off.
Even if the Crown Prince failed to control the situation later, he was deprived of his position.
That was also what happened after his death.
But this was not the ending Li Linfu wanted at all.
Just when Xiao Yi gritted his teeth and made up his mind to turn over the table and stop playing, a very urgent shout came from outside Xi Zheng Palace.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!"
Eunuch Sanbao ran in quickly, panting, and said quickly: "Your Highness, Your Majesty wakes up and wants to see His Highness."
When he saw the situation in the private room, his eyes shrank, he quickly held his breath, bowed and said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty woke up and asked where Your Highness is. I want to see His Highness. It seems that I have something to discuss."
Xiao Yi clasped his hands and looked at Li Linfu.
If he really flipped the table, he wasn't that worried about the consequences of killing Li Linfu.
Because Xiao Di is still alive and awake.
As long as he is there, people's hearts will still be there.
In this feudal empire era where imperial power was supreme, the power represented by the emperor was huge, and Xiao Di would definitely be able to calm down the situation if he stepped forward.
In this way, Xiao Yi will inevitably bear the stigma of being good at killing court ministers.
The image left to Baiguan is that of not following rules.
Now that Xiao Di woke up at this time, he could still name him and wanted to see him, which also reminded Li Linfu that Emperor Xiao Di of Daqian was not dead yet.
At the same time, it can be regarded as relaxing the sudden game of forcing the palace, so that the two of them can no longer be so tense.
"Mr. Li, when my father wakes up, don't you want to remonstrate to death? Don't you want to take back Gu's power to supervise the country? Do you dare to go to Ganlu Palace with Gu?"
Looking at Xiao Yi's sworn expression, Mr. Li knew that he might have returned in vain after going to the Manna Hall.
Because his few words could persuade His Majesty to take back Xiao Yi's power to supervise the country, then His Majesty would not have chosen Xiao Yi in the first place.
Just because Xiao Yi is not as weak and incompetent as before, just because Concubine Li said a few nice words?
I'm afraid, Xiao Di must have known that Xiao Yi was hiding his clumsiness, so he gave him the power to supervise the country.
But if I don’t go now, I might not be able to leave the East Palace.
"Your Highness, please."
Between life and death, Li Linfu chose to bow his head.
Xiao Yi sneered and strode out.
Lu Chong pressed the handle of the knife with one hand and looked at Li Linfu coldly. If he made any move, he would take action.
After leaving the Xi Zheng Palace, Lu Chong softly gave instructions to the Qianniu Sword Guards.
A moment later, Xiao Yi took Li Linfu, followed by Sanbao eunuch and Lu Chong, and met Lu Ming outside the gate of the imperial city.
At this time, the imperial city was already heavily guarded, and the entire capital quietly began to impose martial law.
Xiao Yi nodded slightly to Lu Ming, then took Li Linfu into the imperial city and arrived at the Manna Palace.
"Father, my son is here."
Xiao Di raised his eyes slightly, with a forced smile on his face.
After he woke up, he heard Eunuch Three Treasures say that Mr. Li went to the East Palace to meet His Highness the Crown Prince, and seemed dissatisfied with His Highness the Crown Prince's direct killing of several ministers and two wealthy businessmen from Gyeonggi in recent days.
Xiao Di understood.
Directly ask the Sanbao eunuch to deliver the edict and summon His Highness the Crown Prince.
Li Linfu also saluted and said: "I wish you, Your Majesty, greetings."
Xiao Yi came forward and sat beside the dragon couch, and asked: "Father, are you here to summon me, do you have anything important to do?"
Xiao Di first motioned to Li Linfu to excuse himself, and then said to Xiao Di: "I heard about your work-for-relief policy yesterday. After waking up today, I feel that there is much to be done. I just want to hear your detailed thoughts on this policy."
"I have been bedridden for more than a year. Although there are political talents like Li Gongxiang, Zhang Jiuling, Lu Ming, etc. in the court, I also know in my heart that the drought on Shaanxi Road has not been solved before I became seriously ill."
"From what you said the other day, it turned out to be that serious."
After saying this, Xiao Di calmed down for a while.
Only then did Li Linfu know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually came to Ganlu Hall every day to chat with His Majesty.
The key is that His Majesty seems to wake up every day.
But before that, His Majesty was clearly terminally ill and incurable, and he was about to die!
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. He seemed to have asked Li Qiuya to give His Highness the Crown Prince a chronic poison. A few days ago, he was also seriously ill, already as thin as a stick, and was about to die.
But he woke up directly. Although he still looked so skinny, his eyes were piercing. And when he drew his sword to kill the imperial doctor Zhang Hong outside the Manlu Palace, he was so fast that he didn't even react. It didn't look like him at all. A state of deep poisoning.
With all the abnormal phenomena, could it be said that the father and son really knew his plan from beginning to end?
For a moment, Li Linfu broke out in cold sweat.
Xiao Di calmed down for a while before continuing: "The work-for-relief policy you mentioned is a policy that benefits the country and the people. However, we still have to work together so that the government orders can reach the local areas and the local officials can be self-disciplined and dedicated to the public good." All people. Otherwise, no matter how good the national policy is, it will only end in the political hall."
His words seemed to mean something.
Xiao Yi looked at Li Linfu who was standing there. Their eyes met in the air, and a faint spark suddenly appeared.
The meaning of national policies cannot be passed out of the Political Affairs Hall is obvious. That is to say, although Xiao Yi has the power to supervise the country, no one of the ministers in the court obeys or implements his orders. This decree also stops at the Political Affairs Hall. Inaccessible places.
Li Linfu had no choice but to bow and say to Xiao Di: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Xiao Di looked at Li Linfu calmly and said solemnly: "I am not dead yet."
One sentence.
Li Linfu's mouth was immediately blocked.
It also eliminated some of his thoughts.
Li Linfu could only lower his head deeply to hide the deep coldness and unwillingness in his eyes.
Although Xiao Di was bedridden for a year and did not manage government affairs, all decisions were made in the political hall.
However, there were many ministers in the court who were facing Xiao Di, and there were other ministers with different ideas.
After all, civil and military officials have different origins and their personal connections are also different.
Although Li Linfu was the powerful prime minister, he did not really cover the sky with one hand. However, he had been excluding dissidents and wanted to completely control the court.
But now, Xiao Yi suddenly made a splash, gained the power to supervise the country, and became a tycoon no less powerful than Xiao Di. For a while, all his layouts and plans may come to nothing.
Not willing to give in.
But what if you don’t give in?
Xiao Di is still alive and awake, and he can retire and return to his hometown with an imperial edict. If he doesn't close his eyes for a day, no one will dare to really put the word rebellion on his lips.
Xiao Di gasped slightly and asked Eunuch Sanbao to bring a jade pendant.
It looks like a Pisces jade pendant.
Xiao Di picked up the jade pendant, put it in Xiao Yi's hand, and said: "Take this jade pendant to find Yue Shan. There was a girl in Yue Shan when I saw her. When I saw her, I felt that she was very heroic. The girl was also smart and smart since she was a child. , like a tiger father and a tiger girl. I also liked that girl very much, so I took the opportunity to get Yue Shan drunk and made a marriage arrangement."
"Since you are now in charge of the country, you must have military power. That girl has been comparing herself to a champion since she was a child."
"It just so happens that you are in charge of the East Palace and letting that girl lead the Dragon Guard outside can be regarded as fulfilling her dream of being a general."
After speaking, it seemed that a lot of energy had been spent.
He just waved his hand, indicating that Xiao Yi, Li Linfu and others could retreat.
Xiao Yi looked at the jade pendant in his hand. Yueshan, the military god of Daqian, the general of the Dragon Guard Army, and the king of Hejian County, was now seventy and two years old. He lived in seclusion in the prince's palace and avoided leaving, but no one dared to look down upon him.
But now, Xiao Yi actually wants to marry Yue Shan's daughter as the crown prince's concubine.
Now he needs military power.
Xiao Di's move was a timely help.
Xiao Yi's heart was shaken. He held the jade pendant tightly and said in a deep voice: "My son, thank you father for your kindness!"
