Chapter 612: Misfortune comes to Xiao Wall

Li Ganshun's face was cold, like the unchanging iceberg of Tianshan Mountain. His eyes were staring at Yang Zhen lightly and secretly, and his tone was relieved a lot, saying, "What are you saying to me? If it's just rumors in the market, it's just a smile, and there's no need to be any taboos."

Yang Zhen bowed and said damn, and the cold sweat had already flowed out, saying, "Your Majesty, I have indeed heard some rumors, but these words are not accurate. Your Majesty will just take it as a joke."

Yang Zhen pursed his lips and secretly looked at Li Ganshun's face, then said frightenedly: "I heard that the King of Yue told the foreign officials around him in recent days that it is inappropriate for His Majesty to favor Wanyan Zongjie so much. Although the Jin Kingdom is powerful, why should I curry favor with him? I also said that my ancestor Yuan Hao was so powerful that he was conquering all directions. How could I rely on women to live a life of silence?"

When Li Ganshun heard this, he just smiled indifferently and said, "I, the emperor, care about the national affairs, which is gratifying."

Yang Zhen continued: "His Royal Highness of Yue also said that although Dali is small and poor, the Tubo prince is also a good person and can be entrusted to him. Dali Prince Duan Feng is proficient in Buddhist principles and must be a kind person. Prince Miaomiao can marry him and rest assured."

Li Ganshun shook his head and said, "I have no wise eyes. Who is the best person in the Tubo prince? He is stinky and speaks rudely. As for the prince Duan Feng, the Dali king, who is better than him, he is also a boastful person. Although he knows Buddhist principles, he may not have the heart of Buddha. These two people are the choices of the subordinates."

Yang Zhen said: "Your Majesty said very well. Is there anything I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Li Ganshun became alert at this time, his eyes narrowed into a line, then sighed and said, "You said."

Yang Zhen said: "I will die. I dare not provoke the relationship between Your Majesty and the King of Yue. But since I have said it today, I will just say it all. Please don't blame me."

After accusing him again and again, Yang Zhencai said: "Your Majesty is right. Whether it is Tubo or Dali, it is the choice of the subordinates. Your Majesty knows this truth, but the people of Longxing Mansion also know it? But the King of Yue did the opposite. The King of Yue has always been smart. When the late emperor was there, he was quite favored by the late emperor. How could he be so confused? Unless..."

Speaking of this, the next sentence was extremely heartbroken. Li Ganshun closed his eyes and waved his hand, "Are you going to say unless he has selfish intentions?"

Yang Zhen apologized and said, "My subordinates died ten thousand times!" Although he died ten thousand times, he did not refute Li Ganshun's words, that is, Li Ganshun said what Yang Zhen wanted to say.

Li Ganshun said indifferently: "No one is allowed to say these words or mention them. Do you know?"

Yang Zhen said: "The minister understands."

Li Ganshun picked up a cup of tea and said slowly: "You go down."

Yang Zhen bowed and slowly withdrew.

Li Ganshun drank the tea, carefully put down the teacup, and shouted at the empty warm trunk: "Come."

A crack in the ear room opened, and a eunuch with a stern face walked over step by step. The eunuch was not old, but he was not as arrogant as other eunuchs. He just stood in front of Li Ganshun in silence and stood there.

Li Ganshun said: "Did you hear what you said just now?"

The eunuch said with a slight look on his head: "I heard that the slave. Yang Zhen said that the King of Yue has selfish intentions."

Li Ganshun smiled faintly and said, "The King of Yue is afraid that I will marry Miao'er to the Jin Kingdom, because I am afraid that the dragon throne will not be passed on to him at that time. The Jin Kingdom is powerful, and if there is the power of the Jin Kingdom behind the princess, no one will object to her daughter, right?"

The eunuch smiled and said, "This is roughly what it means. In contrast, Tubo and Dali, these two countries are humble and have no guarantees every day. How can they interfere in the political affairs of Daxia?"

Li Ganshun sighed and said, "He is too careful. As the emperor's uncle, even Miao'er has to make plans. This is what the Han people often say about the cold and poor family." After a moment of silence, he said, "Last month, the Yue Palace said that it was stolen?"

The eunuch said: "Yes, it was the fifteenth day of last month that a lot of things were stolen. For this, the King of Yue also wrote a letter saying that he would increase the escorts of the royal palace. His Majesty has already allowed him to increase the escorts of the King of Yue from 720 to 1,000."

Li Ganshun raised his eyebrows and said, "There are too many, and 720 people can't protect a royal palace. I'm afraid it's done by internal thieves, and it has nothing to do with the number of guards. If you go and tell the King of Yue, there is no need to add the guards. Ask him to be careful of Xiao Jiang. The saying that Xiao Jiang is also said by the Han people. I know that he doesn't like Chinese studies, but this sentence makes sense and makes him remember it very well."

The eunuch nodded and said, "Your Majesty said, I'll go now."

Li Ganshun said: "There is no need to be busy now, and we will talk about it when things are over."

The eunuch smiled and said, "I understand."

Li Ganshun said: "The few foreign officials who were close to the King of Yue will draw up a list. If there are military officers, report them immediately. There is another way, the guards in the palace should also clean up."

The eunuch clasped his fists and said, "I know."

This eunuch seemed to be a vocal worm. He knew it except to know it, but there was no flattery in his tone.

Li Ganshun waved his hand and said, "You go down."

In the warm pavilion, Li Ganshun stood up and paced back and forth in the empty hall. Then he picked up the cups on the table and threw them to the ground.

The cup made of porcelain pieces fell on the stone bricks with a swelling sound, and the sound broke. The sound immediately alarmed the eunuchs outside. Seven or eight people came in in panic. Seeing Li Ganshun standing blankly, looking at the porcelain pieces and tea stains on the ground, they knelt down and said, "The servants died!"

Li Ganshun was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and said slowly: "Did you see anyone outside the window just now?"

The eunuchs looked at each other and said, "I don't know that I have never dared to stand against the window."

Li Ganshun said: "I saw it. This man also brought a knife, he was an assassin!"

The eunuchs were startled and looked around, daring to say nothing.

Li Ganshun continued, "What are you doing while standing there? Ask the guards in the palace to search immediately and strengthen their guards everywhere. Don't so many guards say that they don't even get in? How can the assassins come in?"

He sat down indifferently. Some of the eunuchs went to clean the tea stains on the ground, some went to inform the guards immediately, and some changed Li Ganshun to new tea. Li Ganshun sat down slowly and said nothing. After half an hour, the eunuchs came and said, "Your Majesty, the guards in the palace have searched everywhere, and found nothing."

Li Ganshun's stiff face appeared coldly and said, "It took so much time for such a big movement. The assassin had already escaped. Will he wait for them to surrender? What's the use of such a big thing? I'll draw an order immediately to let the Minister of War meet him."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

The wise and wise ruler of the Western Xia Kingdom is well-known. Many of his deeds have been circulated very much, such as the empress dowager who interfered in politics after taking charge of the rule, such as the stubborn and conservative vassals who were stubborn and conservative officials, who have been in power for more than 40 years, have been civil and military achievements, and have been resting in health. While promoting and relying on Han officials, they also have great benefits for foreign officials.

But today, things are abnormal, but these twists and turns are not enough to cause relish from others. It is just because an assassin sneaks into the palace and he has some collision with the saint. It is really dangerous. It is precisely because of this that several nobles in the palace who are in charge of the guards have all been abolished, and Zhu Wenxian, the Minister of War, was temporarily asked to take charge of the guards.

Most people didn't know the changes in the palace. The only thing that was interested was who the assassin was? Will the priests rise because of this? More than 40 years ago, many old people still remembered that the previous generation of kings also raised the priests because of an assassin. I don't know how many people they took, and countless people were wronged. As a result, they would rather kill a thousand than let one person die in prison.

The edict from the palace quickly made everyone feel relieved. The edict only said that the palace had an assassin. As the king of the country, Li Qianshun only mentioned the negligence of the guards, and then blamed himself for his incompetent governance and was jealous of others. Those who are the king should reflect on themselves and avoid resentment in the country.

As for the arrest of the assassin, the edict was not mentioned at all. When the edict was released, the whole person in Longxing Mansion immediately applauded and said that the current lord was wise and wise.

Things were quickly suppressed. Although several foreign officials suddenly removed from their posts and asked questions, no one noticed that tomorrow would be the elites of various countries would compete in the suburbs. Some of the very lively ones would go to bed early, get up early tomorrow, and choose a good position.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Early the next morning, a high platform was built ten miles away from Longxing Prefecture. Below the platform was a vast grassland, and there was no end at a glance. From the hour of Mao, the city gate had already opened. Teams of Xixia warriors lined up and set up a wide area of ​​ten miles here.

There were also people from Longxing Mansion to watch, but most of them only looked at very far away. Walking forward, there was a restricted area. Fortunately, the government set up a special mound, which came early and had the opportunity to climb high and look far.

Then teams of horses entered the field, and warriors and cavalry from all over the country stationed in the suburbs came one after another.

Flags were waving on the platform, and then the nobles in the city came over. After that, they were princes and princes from various countries, and Shen Ao were among them. He and Yelu Yinde were walking together and chatting and laughing all the way. On the way, they bumped into Wanyan Zongjie. Wanyan Zongjie glared at Shen Ao, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. Shen Ao just curled his lips disdainfully, not even able to pay attention to it.

Wanyan Zongjie was bored and furious, and wanted to rush the horse to cause trouble, but was pulled by the Jin samurai behind him and whispered a few words in his ear. Wanyan Zongjie pondered for a while before rushing the horse away.

The platform is divided into five floors, which are quite like a pyramid. When you go up one by one, the first floor is naturally the most important place for the royal family and princes and princes of various countries to watch. There is also a specially set up a pergola to shade and hide from the rain.

Chen Ao and his friends sat up together, and Yelu Yinde next to him whispered: "I told us to come over thousands of miles away, but I saw the Golden Dog showing off. It was really disheartening. If my father had not told me before he left, he would not offend Xixia even if I couldn't marry a princess. I would have left."

Chen Ao's expression remained unmoved and said lightly: "Who will make you famous and powerful is still unknown. Let's wait and see the show."

Seeing that Chen Ao was so confident, Yelu Yinde couldn't continue to say something despicable, so he nodded and said, "Brother Chen is saying it." After that, he coughed awkwardly and deliberately went to see the grassland.

Then Wanyan Zongjie also came over and met again this time. He just thought Chen Ao did not exist and sat down in a prominent position in the awning. Seeing the fierce Jin cavalry running on the horse court roaring over like the wind, he couldn't help but raise his legs and muttered, as if he was saying something like killing the Southern Barbarians.

*** Prince Wang An came over at the last time, immediately obediently approached Wanyan Zongjie, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang wanted to walk with Your Highness just now, but your Highness took a step first." As he said that, he sat in the position behind Wanyan Zongjie, he looked at Chen Ao inadvertently, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately retracted his eyes in fear.

Li Ganshun had not arrived yet, so although everyone was ready at this time, there was no way to start. Everyone was anxious and waiting, and even more impatient, looking into the distance towards the city gate. The sun gradually became hot, and the people hiding in the awning were fine, but the Dangxiang nobles and Xixia officials who could only stand outside were sweating profusely.

It took half an hour for Li Ganshun's lord to arrive late. Not only did Li Ganshun's princess come, but Li Ganshun's mother-in-law, Li Ganshun's brother, led the way for Li Ganshun. When he arrived at the high platform, he supported Li Ganshun down. The brothers stood up very intimately, and they walked up step by step along the stone steps. Sometimes Li Ganshun whispered a few words. After hearing this, Li Ganshun couldn't help laughing, and Li Ganshun laughed.

This burst of laughter eased the atmosphere a little bit. He followed the steps all the way, and everyone who passed by stood up, saluted Li Ganshun, and greeted Li Ganzheng.
