"Your Majesty, although the King of Shu can govern Qizhou and care for the people, the prince can also supervise the country. Most of the important officials in the court recognize it more. The Xuanwu Gate Incident cannot happen again."
Fang Xuanling gave the answer based on stability. After all, Li Shimin himself obtained the throne by usurping the throne. Now that the King of Shu is gradually being taken seriously, he is afraid that the Xuanwu Sect will happen again. He is a relatively conservative person.
"Fang Xuanling, step back!"
The tone was very cold. Li Shimin didn't want to have the scar mentioned the most in his life, and he was unwilling to punish his loyal ministers. He closed the door and continued to talk to Empress Changsun about family matters, which were also state affairs.
"Your Majesty, I am just a woman, how can I know how to govern the country? But what Fang Xuanling said makes sense. If there is a dispute over the throne, the people of Li will suffer, so we should be more cautious."
Empress Changsun was indeed unwilling to intervene, but the Crown Prince was her eldest son, and the King of Shu was so outstanding that his palms and backs were all flesh, so he could only wait and see what would happen.
But she knew better than anyone else that Li Shimin was still hesitant about choosing the crown prince. The Xuanwu Gate Incident was a human tragedy involving fratricide. If Li Chengqian and Li Ke met each other in battle, she, as a mother, would naturally be heartbroken.
"No one is willing to tell the truth. It seems that I should think carefully about it. A state capital can't explain anything. I would like to see what you do in the future!"
The past events are vivid in my mind.
At the border of Qizhou, there were only about twenty cavalrymen of the King of Shu. Mainly because Qin Zaiming wanted to unite soldiers from various places to continue to encircle and suppress the bandits, and to escort the captive women back home. Li Ke always felt strange why there was internal strife in Erlong Mountain. Everyone died.
The village leader also wanted to kill Yasha, the woman from the Western Region whom he had snatched. She was acceptable in all aspects, but thieves might not go so far as to kill each other for a woman. What was going on?
During the break, there were two more women in the team, which naturally made people's hearts and minds impetuous. It was like being in a class full of boys, and suddenly two female classmates came, and they were both very good-looking. If it weren't for King Shu With such a good reputation, there might be no way to suppress this group of people.
"Your Majesty, I have something I want to tell you."
While he was thinking hard, Chen Shou came over in a humble manner. He deliberately held the reins of the King of Shu's horse, and then kept a distance from the team.
The matter is also very simple. There is nothing missing in the palace, but there is a shortage of two people who can serve the King of Shu wholeheartedly. Chen Shou suggested that the two women rescued by Erlong Mountain should be allowed to serve the prince.
Wow, they were actually keeping Qingcui and Yasha in disguise. Li Ke thought about his hard life. The girls he dated were still in college, but they only held hands and kissed faces.
As for Li Ke, the king of Shu, this guy is an old gunner. In addition, the Tang Dynasty was already open, so he had more fun and it was inevitable that he would be itchy.
"Chen Shou, you really work hard for me. You are really a good slave. Now..."
Suddenly he heard the sound of swords clashing behind him. Something was very wrong. Li Ke pulled the reins of his horse and turned around, followed by Chen Shou. What he was most worried about happened.
It was only after they arrived at the scene that they were brought under control. Two soldiers covered in blood were restrained and kept shouting.
"she is mine!"
"I was here first, don't be ungrateful!"
…
According to the soldier commander, the two fought because they were bringing food to Asha. They were originally very good comrades, but they cut each other with swords over a woman. If they had not stopped them in time, they would have died. So far it's just some non-fatal stab wounds.
Li Ke found that these two jealous soldiers, in addition to the man's original rage, had strange eyes, as if they had lost their souls, and there was a smell on their bodies.
"Throw them into the river! Leave Asha alone."
Li Ke watched the two frantic soldiers being pushed into the water. The captain and others thought they were trying to kill people to establish their authority, until they saw the two men gradually regaining consciousness.
Sure enough, it was poisoning, which was very likely caused by psychotropic drugs. There are thousands of kinds of drugs in the new century, but I didn't expect to see them in the Tang Dynasty. When I think of Yasha coming from the Western Regions, there may be things there that confuse human nature.
The two men talked about what happened after they woke up. In fact, besides being too attentive to each other, Yasha also hooked up with the two of them, and then smelled a kind of ointment on her body, and this happened.
"I have also seen her seduce men. I thought she was some indecent woman, but I didn't expect she was an evil flower."
Qingcui was also very rude in her words. Xiehuo not only meant debauchery, but also had the meaning of inciting people.
"Your Majesty, let us kill her with our own hands, mother..."
The soldier commander was immediately slapped in the face, and the men he sent to guard Asha were also charmed, stole two horses and ran away.
Li Ke did not order anyone to chase him. Instead, he came to a pile of weeds and ordered his people to collect the sage and then dry it completely. Almost everyone had a handful of such ashes.
That woman who pretended to be innocent was more terrifying than the gangsters who killed people and stole goods. Just the plaster that can confuse people is very dangerous. I don't know how many people will die along the way.
"Are you coming too?"
Qingcui wanted to participate in the arrest of Yasha, and got a sword and a crossbow. It looked really cool, but Li Ke was worried that it would be a little dangerous until she hit a hare with an arrow.
"Although I can't wield a sword, I can use a crossbow. If I see her, I will definitely not show mercy. If I can catch her, please keep me by your side."
"You can take her as a slave or a maid, as long as you don't need it..."
Qingcui blushed, because she also knew that the palace was full of everything else, so she could only try her best to behave well. Not everyone could survive the experience in Erlong Mountain.
It was very easy to track her. The horse hoof prints left along the way were very fresh. I chased her to the nearest village and asked. In addition, Yasha was a blond and blue-eyed woman from the Western Regions, so she was immediately recognized.
The remaining sixteen people were divided into four teams to track. Because the horse's hoof prints were separated, Qingcui and Chen Shou protected Li Ke together, not far from the other team. However, the journey was too smooth, and soon they saw a horse approaching. Horses eating grass.
Chen Shou and Xiao Bing rode over to take a look. Suddenly, a black figure jumped out from the grass. He kicked Chen Shou's horse and pulled the soldier off the horse with one hand. The soldier who was confused by Yasha was the most powerful among the guards. One, he looked at Li Ke and Qing Cui with red eyes.
"Your Majesty, let's go first. Qingcui just needs to stop him."
A weak woman stood in front of Qing Cui and took out the crossbow. But she shot an animal before and there was a living person standing in front of her. Can she do it?
