The red candle burned out, and the night was lingering.
Or there may be differences in the future, and the new wife is particularly obsessed with him.
It was dark outside the window, and I could smell the breath inside.
"Langjun!" Liu Jinyu's soft voice sounded in Li Xuan's ears.
The soft breathing made Li Xuan feel itchy in his heart. Unfortunately, his delicate wife was weak, so he had to endure it.
"Madam!" Li Xuan hugged Liu Jinyu into his arms, nostalgic for the smoothness of his fingertips, and joked softly: "You and I won't see each other for four months at most, so why are we so reluctant to leave her."
"Mr. Lang." Liu Jinyu was a little shy and dissatisfied with Li Xuan's teasing. One hand had already pinched his waist, but before the hand could exert any force, it was already held by another hand.
Liu Jinyu spat secretly, and then whispered: "It's my mother. My mother hopes that I can be pregnant with an heir as soon as possible."
When it comes to heirs, even a smart and transparent woman like Liu Jinyu can't help but worry about gains and losses.
"Sir, how can you force things like gods and ghosts?" Li Xuan reached out to wipe the sweat from Liu Jinyu's forehead, and then whispered in her ear: "But I think even gods and ghosts have to bow to my husband's efforts. .”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Jinyu pushed Li Xuan away, but the bed was only so big that it was only within an arm's length.
Li Xuan moved forward a little, then hugged Liu Jinyu into his arms again, and then whispered: "My husband is about to leave Beijing. If I have nothing to do, I might as well get closer to Taiping."
"Princess?" Liu Jinyu raised her head and looked at Li Xuan, her eyes full of surprise and confusion.
Princess Taiping is only in her early ten years, a little girl.
Li Xuan did not explain and continued: "Huan'er and Taiping are a pair of little sisters who often play together. Madam, you don't need to be too deliberate. You just need to take more care of Huan'er.
Now that the lady is a member of the clan, being close to the princess is a matter of clan affection, and no one will make irresponsible remarks... If something unexpected happens, there will be one more way to speak directly to the Queen of Heaven and the Saint, and it is likely that there will only be one chance. "
There was a hint of worry in Li Xuan's voice. Less than a month after he returned to Chang'an, he had already provoked close associates of Empress Wu like Pei Yan and Wu Chengsi, not to mention Ming Chongyan and Beimen scholar Liu Yizhi.
As he gets deeper into the court, the conflicts with those people will only become more and more serious. Who knows when and what means they will use.
At this time, Princess Taiping, who has escaped from everyone's sight, is likely to become Li Xuan's final advantage.
Even more advantageous than Prince Li Xian.
"Is Mr. Lang planning for the future?" Although Liu Jinyu didn't know what Li Xuan was worried about, Liu Jinyu could still understand his thinking.
"It's just to protect yourself." Li Xuan held his beloved wife in his arms, looked at the dark curtain above his head, and said softly: "Yue Weng is old, but he is still busy with state affairs, and his health is damaged!"
Some of the words were unpleasant, so Li Xuan didn't say them, but Liu Jinyu understood them all.
In the cruel party struggle in the court, it is necessary to reserve a way out in advance.
Liu Rengui is already seventy-five years old. It is hard to say how many years he can survive.
Without his support in the court, Li Xuan will have an increasingly difficult time.
Having said that, Liu Jinyu had a vague feeling that there was some terrifying fact hidden in Li Xuan's words, but she couldn't say what it was yet.
Li Xuan stretched out her hand and gently touched Liu Jinyu's belly, and whispered in her ear: "Do you think it's already there now?"
"Um?"
It was just getting dark, and in front of the palace gate of Nanchang, servants of all sizes were loading their luggage onto the carriage.
"Mom, take care!" Li Xuan stood at the door and faced his mother-in-law Ouyang. She flicked her clothes and knelt down to worship.
"Bang, bang, bang." After kowtowing three times, he turned around and stood up. He took a deep look at Liu Jinyu beside Ouyang. Li Xuan got on his horse and headed towards the east gate without looking back.
Looking at Li Xuan's leaving figure, Ouyang sighed softly and said, "I don't know if Dalang will be in danger when he returns to Silla?"
Liu Jinyu stood beside
She couldn't help but want to tell the truth, but in the end she shut her mouth tightly.
Last night, Li Xuan had already told her exactly what happened in Penglai Hall.
Liu Jinyu had long understood that Li Xuan would not go to Silla at all this time.
What Li Xuan needs to deal with is not the Silla army, but the most direct one is a Silla messenger.
Others, such as King Donghai's secret line in Yangzhou and instigating the Japanese state, are all secondary matters.
Li Xuan's safety is not in danger, but Prince Peng's palace may be tricked into trying to find out the truth about Li Xuan's eastward trip.
Although my mother is an elder, it is not appropriate to talk to her about this kind of thing.
What's more, my mother has a lot of clan relations to deal with in Chang'an. Who knows what day and time, or who knows how, one sentence will be revealed, and it will affect the overall situation of the entire government.
"Sanniang, during this period, you don't want to go anywhere except the mansion and your in-laws' home." Ouyang raised her head and glanced at Liu Jinyu, her eyes full of clarity.
Liu Jinyu was solemn for a moment, then bowed and said, "My wife has taken note of it."
"Yes!" Mrs. Ouyang raised his head and nodded to the watching eyes around him, then turned around and took Liu Jinyu's hand, returning to the inner courtyard.
As soon as he stood in the middle hall, Liu Jinyu saw a bowl of medicine placed on the table.
She looked at Ouyang in surprise and asked with concern: "Is Mom feeling unwell?"
"Mom is fine." Mrs. Ouyang looked at Liu Jinyu with a smile and said eagerly, "This bowl is anti-fetal medicine, which mom specially prepared for you."
"Ah!" Liu Jinyu suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Morning bells and morning drums echoed throughout Chang'an City.
Chunming Gate was already wide open at this time, but when the morning bells and drums stopped completely, people were allowed to enter and exit through Chunming Gate. But today, for some unknown reason, more people went out and fewer people came in.
As soon as I walked out of Chunming Gate, I immediately saw people gathering in twos and threes outside the city gate, pointing in the direction of the dock a mile away.
Three huge official ships docked at the pier. Groups of soldiers wearing bright armor quickly gathered from all directions and then quickly boarded the official ships.
The flags are fluttering, the momentum is fierce, the armor is bright, and the blades are sharp, giving a murderous look.
The people who had just come out from the city gate couldn't help but ask around when they saw this scene.
Is there going to be a war somewhere?
Soon, a so-called extremely secret news quickly spread among the crowd.
Silla seduced Baekje's old generals into rebellion, and the imperial court ordered King Nanchang to organize his troops in the southeast and sail eastward to Silla for reinforcements.
The people immediately became uproar and couldn't help muttering to each other. The news quickly spread throughout the city.
In the distance, on the city wall, in a turret, a middle-aged man wearing a green official robe looked at the ship in the distance with a suspicious expression, as if what he saw was surprising to him.
The court's reaction was really too fast.
Almost overnight, the Central Committee made the decision to assist the East Island. What about the Western Regions and Tubo?
In recent years, in order to prepare for the Tubo War, the imperial court transferred a large amount of money and food to the western states, but there was still a big gap. It was precisely because of this that they wanted to stop the war with Silla.
The money and grain transported from Hebei Province to Andong Road every year were transferred to the west. But now, instead of withdrawing the troops, the imperial court is mobilizing naval forces to support Andong Road.
Although it is said that the navy will not participate in the war against Tibet, if the navy moves, it will also consume a lot of money and food.
By then, money and food from Hebei Province and Jiangnan Province will not be transferred to the west, and the war between the imperial court and Tubo will be postponed.
The emperor actually accepted the postponement of the war with Tubo that the court had been preparing for many years. Was there something going on that he didn't know about?
The green-robed official frowned. At this time, at the city gate, a group of Jinwu guards escorted a carriage out of the city gate. The green-robed official immediately became solemn.
The carriage drove slowly to the pier and stopped. The curtains of the carriage were opened. Silla, wearing a green robe, stepped out of the carriage with a worried look on her face.
At this moment, a young noble man wearing a black gold robe slowly walked out from the shadow of the ship.
The moment he saw that figure, Qin Yujiaoqian's face instantly became embarrassed.
Li Xuan, King of Nanchang.
Seeing Li Xuan appear, the expressions of not only Qin Dujiaogan but also the green-robed officials on the city wall changed.
Because what he said seriously last night that it was impossible for the imperial court to send King Nanchang to Silla seemed like a joke now.
Suddenly, the green-robed official on the high wall saw Li Xuan turn around suddenly and looked in his direction.
The green-robed official suddenly stepped back and retreated into the shadow of the turret, avoiding Li Xuan's sight.
Li Xuan looked away. The city wall in the distance was at the end of his sight. He couldn't see clearly who was there, but he knew there was someone there, and he could basically determine who that person was.
King of the East China Sea.
At this time, the only one interested in spying here is King Donghai.
If he is really the person Li Xuan guessed, it would not be surprising for him to appear on the city wall.
Turning around, Li Xuan's expression became cold, and he stopped, his cold eyes looking up and down at the girl who had just stood under the car.
Several Jinwu guards forced Qin Obt. Jiaogan to move forward. The closer they got to Li Xuan, the more nervous Qin Obt. Jiaogan's fearful expression became.
Although Li Xuan had never seen Qin Obtuse Angle Gan, Qin Obtuse Angle Gan had seen him from a distance.
Especially for a long time, Li Xuan solved strange cases, leveled the sky, and caught Turks, one after another, which had already left a deep impression on Qin Yujiaogan's heart.
Especially the two bloody heads in Yangzhou were deeply pierced into Qin Yujiaogan's heart.
When they arrived five steps in front of Li Xuan, the Jinwu guards around him immediately stopped.
Qin Yujiaogan also stopped subconsciously, and then couldn't help but look at Li Xuan.
At this moment, Li Xuan said indifferently: "Shiluo Envoy!"
"The sinner is here!" Qin Yujiaogan's legs softened and he couldn't help but kneel to the ground. Then he bowed to Li Xuan with a fearful expression on his face: "Silla asked the sinner Qin Yujiaogan. He has met the prince of Nanchang and the prince. May you be blessed forever."
"Please forgive me, who dares to plead guilty to Silla? This way I apologize, and the other person seduces people to rebel. Is this the way you Silla people deal with things?" A sneer of disdain appeared at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth.
"Your Majesty, the guilty minister doesn't know all this. The guilty minister really doesn't know. Please forgive me for my sin, please!" Qin Dujiaogan once again deeply bowed to the ground, his face full of pain, fear and regret.
As soon as he returned to the embassy last night, he was immediately arrested directly by the Jinwu Guards.
From last night to now, he has not eaten even a drop of rice, and all the followers he brought have disappeared.
Datang has already broken up with Silla, and it is very likely that he will not even be allowed to live.
Fortunately, he was sent outside the city today, so Qin Yujiaoqian breathed a sigh of relief, and then when he raised his eyes, he saw Li Xuan.
The bloody devil's King of Nanchang.
"The matter has come to this, and there is no intention to talk about anything else." Li Xuan straightened up, looked up at Chang'an City in the distance, and said softly: "Now, let us use our swords to decide the fate of our two countries."
After Li Xuan said what he said, Qin Dujiaoqian's expression suddenly changed.
At this time, Li Xuan waved his hand fiercely and said coldly: "Let him stand on the bow of the ship and enjoy it. The people of the Tang Dynasty hate and despise such an untrustworthy person like him."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
