Early next morning;
The twelfth lunar month of winter;
The thick snow has not yet melted;
The entire capital is still in the freezing cold.
Bai Yuxian was ordered to put on the Mingguang Silver Dragon Armor and gather with all the civil and military officials outside the main hall of the palace.
Outside the main hall, all the officials gathered together in twos and threes, but there were two groups of officials who were clearly in opposition.
The two factions are naturally a group of civil and military officials headed by Prince Li Heng and a group of civil and military officials headed by Prime Minister Li Linfu.
Bai Yuxian, wearing a silver-white battle armor, stood among the officials of Li Linfu's faction along with his father-in-law Han Su.
Bai Yuxian's arrival also attracted the attention of almost all civil and military officials present, especially those from Prince Li Heng's line.
Because everyone present knew that Bai Yuxian would usually not go to court unless there were important matters and the emperor summoned him.
But today Bai Yuxian came here to go to court, so everyone present could not help but pay attention to it.
Everyone speculated whether something unexpected happened, otherwise why would Bai Yuxian come to court.
Even Li Linfu was a little surprised by Bai Yuxian's sudden appearance in court today and couldn't help but ask.
"General Bai came to court today, but what happened?"
"To be honest, Mr. Li, this matter is exactly what Yuxian is confused about now. Yesterday, Yuxian suddenly received an order from His Majesty to ask Yuxian to come to court today, but the specific reason is not yet known to Yuxian. , I was also thinking of asking Mr. Li for advice on what big things happened recently."
Bai Yuxian also bowed his hands politely to Li Linfu.
"That's strange. Apart from the incident at Wuhou Mansion, I haven't heard of any major events happening recently. However, General Bai is both civil and military, loyal and patriotic. Your Majesty has always thought highly of General Bai. Today, Your Majesty summons General Bai to come to court. No matter what the reason is, it’s definitely not a bad thing to talk to General Bai.”
Li Linfu's attitude towards Bai Yuxian also seemed very polite. After hearing this, he cupped his hands and returned the greeting with a smile.
After all, Bai Yuxian is now at the height of his power in the court and is highly regarded by the emperor, and the two of them are natural allies with no conflict in terms of the court's political interests.
In addition, Bai Yuxian was also very knowledgeable and gave him face as the prime minister.
Under this situation, Li Linfu naturally didn't mind giving Bai Yuxian face to maintain the relationship between the two parties.
On the other side, looking at Li Linfu and Bai Yuxian who were talking and laughing and getting along harmoniously in front of them, Prince Li Heng couldn't help but have a gloomy look on his face.
The rise of Bai Yuxian really caught him by surprise. The most important thing was that he and Li Linfu had always had a bad relationship, and now Bai Yuxian and Li Linfu have come together again, and now Bai Yuxian still holds military power and leads the Tiance Army, and Or the Tiance Army, which is continuing to increase its troops and is about to reach 50,000 troops.
In this way, if Bai Yuxian and Li Linfu come together, they will definitely want power and soldiers.
For him, Li Heng, this was simply a fatal threat.
Bai Yuxian also noticed the gloomy change in Li Heng's eyes, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
To be honest, in Bai Yuxian's opinion, Prince Li Heng was simply stupid.
Now that the emperor Li Longji is still on the throne, and it seems that he is in his prime and has no intention of abdicating, at this time, Li Heng can't wait to start vigorously developing his own power and cultivating his own wings, and it is still unabashed. , isn’t this looking for death?
The emperor is still on the throne, but you, a prince, are so eager to develop your own power and win over the civil and military officials in the court.
What do you want to do.
Do you want to rebel and directly force the emperor to abdicate?
Put yourself in this situation, which emperor can endure it.
Li Heng simply forced Li Longji to deal with him.
However, thinking about the series of operations of Prince Li Heng in parallel time and space, especially the operations after he succeeded to the throne during the Anshi Rebellion, Bai Yuxian felt that Li Heng's current behavior was reasonable.
Because Li Heng is really stupid, a typical example of great ambition and neglect of talents, and the city government is not enough.
A moment passed like this.
"Squeak-"
With a heavy sound of the palace door opening.
"Xuan Baiguan enters the palace."
"See your majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live your majesty!"
Bai Yuxian followed all the civil and military ministers to the palace, stood in the military attache camp on one side of the hall, and followed all the civil and military ministers to worship Li Longji on the throne.
Li Longji was tall and dignified, and the imperial dignity he had cultivated over a long period of time made people afraid to look directly at him.
But the complexion is a bit lacking.
With his powerful cultivation, Bai Yuxian can confirm that Li Longji drank too much and indulged in sex, coupled with old age and frailty, his body has begun to suffer from serious depletion and kidney deficiency. If it continues like this, I am afraid that in less than two years, Li Longji's entire body will be completely destroyed. You have been short-changed, and you will be unable to make up for it when the time comes.
Even now, Li Longji is probably taking drugs.
"Everyone loves you."
Sitting high on the throne, Li Longji glanced at all the civil and military ministers present, also glanced at Bai Yuxian who arrived, and then said as usual.
"Something's happening."
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"."
Immediately, the civil and military ministers who had something to report came forward to present the memorial.
After a while, all the civil and military officials finished playing. At this time, Li Longji stood up, glanced at the crowd and said.
"Now that all my dear friends have finished reporting, I would like to ask your dear ladies for their opinions on something today."
"There is a daughter of the Yang family, Yang Yuhuan, who is virtuous, virtuous, and stunningly beautiful. She is now practicing Taoism in Taixuan Temple. I would like to order her to return to secular life and bring her into the palace as a noble concubine. What do you think of your love?"
Everyone: "."
The entire hall suddenly became eerily quiet, as if it was deathly silent.
All the civil and military ministers looked at their noses and hearts without saying a word.
Bai Yuxian also suddenly understood. No wonder Li Longji suddenly asked him to go to court today.
Li Longji obviously couldn't bear it and made up his mind to recruit Yang Yuhuan into the palace. The reason why he let him go to court was probably because he wanted him to help support the situation. Just like now, all the civil and military ministers have Without saying a word, if no one speaks up and agrees with Li Longji, then Li Longji will be unable to step down and it will be very embarrassing.
But it’s up to everyone to say what they say about this kind of thing.
Speaking of objections, Li Longji has obviously made up his mind. Anyone who dares to speak out will be worried about his longevity.
But I agree, after all, it would be too disgraceful to speak out about robbing one's own daughter-in-law.
But having said that, looking at the history of the Li and Tang royal families, this does not seem to be too surprising.
Seeing that the scene became strangely quiet for a moment and no one spoke, Li Longji suddenly felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but speak again.
"Why don't you say a word, dear friends?"
Why didn't you say a word? Didn't you have some idea?
Bai Yuxian was speechless in his heart, but he knew that everyone else could continue to pretend to be silent at this time, but he couldn't because Li Longji's eyes had fallen on him.
It is naturally self-evident what Li Longji means.
At this time, if Bai Yuxian continues to pretend to be dead and does not stand up and say anything in favor of Li Longji's support and step down, Li Longji will definitely give him little shoes to wear, or even masturbate him in anger. It is not impossible. .
After all, he is the person Li Longji single-handedly promoted. If he doesn't help Li Longji at this time, he will have trouble if Li Longji doesn't deal with him.
"I second my opinion."
Bai Yuxian had no choice but to stand up and take the initiative to say goodbye.
Li Longji looked at Bai Yuxian with satisfaction, and then looked at other civil and military ministers.
And with Bai Yuxian's beginning, other people also expressed their opinions one after another.
"I second my opinion."
After Bai Yuxian, Li Linfu was the second to step forward.
"I second my opinion."
"I second my opinion."
"."
Then came the third, fourth, and fifth
"Haha, very good."
Li Longji was immediately delighted.
"Come here, prepare an edict and pass on my will. Yang Yuhuan, the daughter of the Yang family, is a virtuous and virtuous person with stunning beauty who will captivate the country."
