In the third year of Zhenguan, the promise of a prince was extraordinary. Since the Xuanwu Gate Incident, the prince and the King of Qi were killed, and the other brothers of Li Shimin were all divided into places. In addition, the princes and princesses were all underage. It can be said that in such a large Chang'an City, the princes were actually the highest title.

Li Xiaogong was both a royal family and a founding hero, and was treated very well by the emperor. This can be seen from the title of Minister of Rites, but rarely went to the palace to attend court, how much Li Shimin tolerated him.

But this is exactly what Lee Hyo-gong is smart.

A royal general who held military power, once took the initiative to withdraw from the power center at his thirty years old and spent all day in his mansion with singing and dancing beauties. This approach is naturally what the emperor likes to see the most. For Li Shimin, the more depressed you, Li Xiaogong, are, like eating, drinking, and having fun, and the more you feel, the more you feel. And the more you feel at ease with you, the more you naturally like you. Whether it is out of old feelings or face.

Speaking of which, from the founding of the Tang Dynasty to the stabilization of the world, the only one who could compete with Li Shimin for military merit was this Hejian prince. Whether it was to manage Bashu, attack Xiao Xian, Fu Gongyou, and recruit Lingnan, Li Xiaogong, as the commander, he made great contributions. Even in the eyes of some ordinary people and court officials, Li Xiaogong was able to compete with Li Shimin at that time.

Before entering the mansion, Li Chunfeng actually talked about Li Xiaogong's deeds. Lu Xin didn't care at first, but when he reacted, he suddenly understood why Li Chunfeng wanted to meet the prince of Hejian.

If the master and apprentice want to get close to the emperor, who is the most effective recommendation? And there is no need to worry about being treated as a pawn? In other words, through whom can you sell yourself to the emperor and gain the greatest trust?

A prince who is far away from the government and an honest brother. If Li Shimin couldn't believe this person, who else could he trust?

Therefore, after Li Xiao made a promise, he answered him not Lu Xin, but Li Chunfeng.

"I heard for a long time that the prince of Hejian is graceful and generous, kind and generous, and admires the princess for a long time. I saw him today, and it is true. As for the little disciple who saved the princess, it was just a matter of making a move, not to try anything. Seeing injustice on the road and punishing evil and promoting good is my duty as a cultivator. What's more, the little disciple was killed and was in trouble. The princess came forward to rescue him, and he had already paid back the cause and effect. If the prince insisted on giving a reward, it would be humiliating my master and disciple."

Li Chunfeng spoke slowly, but his voice was not loud, but he made echoes in the palace, which was very awake. During the entire process of his speech, the instruments such as bells, drums, zithers, qins, pipas and other instruments placed around the palace made vague musical sounds, just as if someone was sitting in front of these instruments and playing them from time to time.

Seeing this, Xiaoxiaogong's face changed slightly and he suddenly stood up.

"It turned out to be two immortal masters, and Xiao Wang was rude. I took back my words just now."

“So very good.”

Li Chunfeng nodded, always looking mysterious and unfathomable, making people unable to keep their pulse. Although Li Xiaogong was a prince, he had been fighting in the east for many years and had seen countless people. However, the eyes he looked at Li Chunfeng at this time were obviously filled with an unpredictable smell.

"From the aura of the immortal master, it is far beyond the comparison of mortals such as Xiao Wang. I wonder where the immortal master had practiced before?"

After Li Xiaogong sat down again, he ordered the maid to go down to get the wine and ordered the kitchen to prepare supper. He directly invited Lu Xin and his party to stay in the mansion. This change was somewhat unexpected. Perhaps this Hejian prince also saw something different from Li Chunfeng.

"I have no place to live, and I am swaying everywhere. In my early years, I am used to walking around the world and wanting to see the whole world. Now that I am older, I will be tired."

"It's good to be tired, but I will stop and realize what I really want in my heart. To be honest, Xiao Wang was like an immortal master back then, and wanted to travel all the world and see the beautiful scenery of the world. But after that age, he suddenly realized that people are not boats, so why should they wander for a lifetime? Instead of waiting until they grow old and want to return to their roots, it's better to watch their children enjoy themselves earlier, which is the great blessing in life."

"The prince saw so thoroughly that Xiaodao felt a little ashamed."

Li Chunfeng and Li Xiaogong chatted one by one, like two old friends who had not met for a long time. They only talked about the world, not about the affairs of the government, and not about the affairs of the state. Lu Xin and other juniors couldn't interfere, so they were even more comfortable. The scholar had the opportunity to eat and drink, but he tried his best to stuff things into his mouth. Yue Buhei had been drunk by him and lay on the table unconscious. The Yang sisters were stuck with Li Lingyu, and the three girls were talking and laughing, but they didn't know what they were talking about.

It was soon evening. When night fell, lights began to light up in the palace. The kitchen was cooked with hundreds of delicacies and was served on the table by the maids one after another. Li Xiaogong and Li Chunfeng were drinking from the air, and they seemed extremely harmonious. Lu Xin sat next to Wei Qing and chatted without a word.

"When did Brother Wei arrive in Chang'an and when did he enter Dali Temple?"

"This... Brother Lu didn't ask, but I almost forgot. In fact, I only had three years of employment in Dali Temple. After His Majesty ascended the throne, my uncle recommended me to be the Minister of Dali Temple. But before that, I lived in Chang'an for a long time and were childhood sweethearts with Xiaoyue."

Wei Qing drank a lot of wine and his face flushed. When talking about Qian Xiaoyue, a different light flashed in the eyes of the Dali Temple Master. Lu Xin had long known that Wei Zheng and Qian Hai were close friends, and now it seems that the relationship between the two families may be closer.

"So that's the case, no wonder Xiaoyue, who listened to Brother Wei so much. However, in Dali Temple, Yiran has become the emperor's most trusted Sansi Yamen. Especially when the world is not stable, the cases handled by Dali Temple are all over the prefectures and prefectures, and they must have controlled the lives of countless people."

"What does Brother Lu mean?"

When Wei Qing heard this, he frowned and seemed to be much more awake. Lu Xin didn't look at him and filled himself with wine again. In his opinion, with the relationship between Wei Zheng and Li Shimin, Wei Qing could completely allow Wei Qing to sit at a higher position or go to the army to experience it, which would be more powerful for his future career development. But from the first year of Zhenguan to the present, Wei Qing is still just a small Dali Temple Master. The reason behind this is worth pondering.

Li Chunfeng will enter the court sooner or later, and the court has been fighting openly and secretly since ancient times, which is extremely dangerous. From a private emotional perspective, Lu Xin naturally hopes that Wei Qing is a friend but not an enemy. However, the master and disciple cannot figure out Wei Zheng's meridian for the time being, and they do not know what the person is hiding in the court. If he can find some false and real things from Wei Qing, it is of course the best, so as not to have conflicts in the future and ruin the relationship.

"It's nothing, it's just a joke. After all, I and my master are just here for the first time, and I don't know the rules of the court, so I'm afraid of causing any more trouble."

"Hahaha, Brother Lu is upright and chivalrous. How could the court really disappoint you? My uncle taught me since I was a child that if you want a peaceful world, you must first be wise, so that all officials will be afraid and have official ethics. Your Majesty is in his prime and has so many good ministers to assist you. Although there are still corrupt officials, I believe that the Tang Dynasty court will get better and better. The world will be more and more stable."

"I remember what Brother Wei said. Lord Wei Zheng is indeed a good official. Unfortunately, His Majesty the Emperor does not seem to want to use him more."

Lu Xin said this, holding the wine glass, looking straight at Wei Qing's gaze. He blinked his eyelids, then raised his head and drank three glasses of wine.

"Uncle does not care about official positions. In fact, he was familiar with His Majesty before His Majesty ascended the throne. After the battle of Xuanwu Gate, people in the world thought that his Majesty was the surrendered minister whom His Majesty pardoned, and they received a lot of criticism, but the fact is not the case. Alas... these things are a long story. Brother Lu only needs to know that with the help of His Majesty, he will definitely become a wise king of the generation."

“So great!”

When the two said this, they lost the following. Wei Qing seemed to be thinking and stopped talking. Although Lu Xin did not find any important information, he still gained some of it, so he naturally would not ask again. According to what Wei Qing said, it is enough to confirm that Wei Zheng had already met Li Shimin when he was under Li Jiancheng's account. This alone is worth pondering.

"What happened during the Xuanwu Gate Incident? The Onmyoji must have participated in this battle. Yuchi Jingde, Tan Zongxiao, Wei Duanyun, and Wei Zheng are all Onmyoji, and their cultivation is very high. Even if Li Shimin became the emperor, he is still a mortal. How dare he keep so many great masters by his side?"

Lu Xin thought to himself, and always felt that the real history was very different from what history books described. At least in this magnificent era, everything was far less simple than what I heard.

"Immortal Master, it's getting late, how about staying in the mansion tonight? Tomorrow, the Imperial College Supervision will conduct a scientific examination, and all officials will gather together. With the Immortal Master as accompaniment, Xiao Wang may also have a light on his face."

"In this way, I will disturb the prince. The disciple..."

Li Chunfeng turned his head and was about to talk to Lu Xin, but at this moment, all the lights in the palace suddenly went out. Then a strong wind poured into the door, causing the wine glasses and plates on the table to "crack" sound. Li Chunfeng stood up suddenly, his figure swayed in the darkness, and instantly appeared in front of Li Xiaogong. Then, he saw him snorting and wavering, and the lights in the palace were lit up again.

Lu Xin was shocked and hurriedly looked at the master. At this time, Li Chunfeng had an extra silver dart on his hand, and it seemed that he was wrapped in a square talisman.

"It seems that some people can't wait. Prince, Xiaodao is afraid that he will let down your kindness. Let's go, disciple."

After Li Chunfeng took the silver raid to assassinate Li Xiaogong, he did not explain. He said a word and hurried out of the palace with Lu Xin and others. The Prince of Hejian sat all the way, with no expression on his face and no words. At least everyone in the palace dispersed, he stood up and took a long breath outside the window.
