After leaving the palace gate, a carriage was parked there, and Hua Shaosheng and Sima Tu were waiting there.

Seeing Li Xun come out, Sima Tu walked up and whispered: "Master, what happened?"

It has been five hours since Li Xun entered the palace. It is impossible for a simple meeting with the saint and reporting the situation to take so long, something must have happened.

Li Xun said indifferently: "Let's talk about it when you go back."

Sima Tu nodded, then looked in one direction, Li Xun looked at him, and there was a dark corner over there, pitch black and nothing could be seen.

“Who is there?”

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Xun was silent for a moment, then walked over and entered the darkness. His vision was pitch black, but when he got closer, he could still see a group of people. This should be Zhao Xun.

"cousin?"

"It's me."

Zhao Xun's voice sounded.

Li Xun laughed and said, "Cousin, why are you standing here?"

"Wait for you."

Zhao Xun answered, and then asked, "What did your mother just tell you?"

Li Xun said: "I didn't say anything. My aunt told me to be more low-key and cautious recently. Don't go out if you have nothing to do, and don't contact the ministers in the court casually, so as not to arouse the emperor's suspicion."

"That's all?"

"What did my cousin thinks my aunt would say to me?"

Li Xun smiled and asked back.

Zhao Xun also smiled, but his smile came from his mouth, and the expression on his face was still cold. Of course, Li Xun could not see these expressions.

"What my mother said is very much. Although you have achieved great success in Longyou, it has also aroused a lot of jealousy. The reason for shooting a bird with a gun is that you should understand that you are more low-key and cautious recently, and there are only benefits and no harm. Also, the father may transfer you to a local position to work. If you experience it, don't worry, it's just an excessive amount. It's good to take advantage of this to avoid the edge."

Li Xun smiled and said, "That's good. Going outside is quiet and quiet, so as not to be pointed at by others and talk nonsense."

Zhao Xun was not talking, and Li Xun was silent. Both of them were staring at each other, but neither of them could see the expression on each other's face. After a moment, Zhao Xun turned around and left in silence.

Seeing Zhao Xun leave, Li Xun narrowed his eyes, waited for a while before turning around and leaving.

Back on the carriage, Sima Tu immediately asked, "Master, the prince suddenly entered the palace today. Is it related to you, lord?"

Li Xun looked at Sima Tu, his alertness was really keen.

Li Xun told everything about the matter without hiding it.

Zhao Xun's approach was obviously to sell Li Xun to protect himself. With the relationship between them, it shouldn't be like this. Sima Tu would be surprised and puzzled after hearing it. However, after hearing Li Xun's description, Sima Tu did not show any expression, but just lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Li Xun sighed and said, "You have told me before that there is no me in the prince's plan. I didn't agree with it at that time. Now, what you said is right."

Sima Tu looked at Li Xun, opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything. He didn't know how to say some things, because Li Xun and the prince were both monarchs and ministers and brothers. In such a relationship, Sima Tu couldn't say many things straightforwardly. If he said it too straightforwardly, it would be a provocation and disagreement.

After Sima Tu followed Li Xun, the two talked a lot, including many things in Li Xun before. After the Battle of Jiangnan, Li Xun returned to Beijing to establish a patrol camp, commanding thousands of soldiers, not many but also many. At that time, Zhao Xun had just enthroned the king and built a mansion, and his foundation was weak, so he needed to gather strength. But even so, Li Xun still did not enter Zhao Xun's core circle, and later the first battle in Longyou. Li Xun became the governor of Wuzhou and was in charge of his side. His strength should not be underestimated. The situation is still the case. Zhao Xun

The two of them are close on the surface, but in fact, Zhao Xun has never done this and that to Li Xun, you should do this and that. This cannot be done, that cannot be done. Zhao Xun’s group is planning and doing things, and Li Xun has never discussed it later. Sima Tu said that words to Li Xun were very tactful and secret. In fact, he wanted to tell Li Xun that even if he was about Zhao Xun, he should be careful and beware of others! Don’t be regarded as a fool and use it for nothing.

Thinking of what Li Yi said just now, Li Xun sighed again: "Auntie still loves me."

Sima Tu said softly: "Concubine Li is the prince's biological mother. Although the focus is on him, Concubine Li is also the lord's biological aunt. Her surname is Li, so she cannot completely ignore her parents' family."

Li Xun looked at Sima Tu and said in a low voice: "Sima Tu, you know my Li Xun's personality. There are no outsiders here. Just say anything bluntly. I don't want to hear you say these nonsense."

Sima Tu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "My lord, the situation is very clear now. Whether it is for political or psychological considerations, no matter how good the lord does, it is impossible for you to have a place in the prince's plan. The lord achieved a brilliant record in the Western Regions this time, but it is beyond the prince's plan. Since it is outside the plan, the prince naturally has to bring the extra things back into the plan. And doing so will be of great benefit to the prince in terms of the current situation."

Li Xun opened the curtains, looked at the scenery outside, and silently said, "I know what you want to say. After the prince ascended the throne, if there were no accidents in his dynasty, I would probably have done nothing."

What Li Xun said does not mean to have to do some ulterior motives or other greater ambitions. Li Xun never had this idea or thought, and never thought about it. He knew that the very few people around him, such as Fan Zhongyun, Sima Tu, had some other thoughts in his heart, but Li Xun could clearly confirm that he absolutely did not. The reason why Li Xun was sad and sad was because he was very simple, only wanted three wives and four concubines, and was rich and prosperous for a lifetime. Later, he was influenced by some people, so he tried to join in. In this process, Li Xun could be said to be like a fish in water, smooth sailing, during which time or

There were very difficult moments with sweat and tears, but it was precisely because the rainbow after the storm was a rainbow. This success through hard work had a great sense of satisfaction, which made Li Xun slowly work harder, doing something for the country, the emperor, and the people. However, after a great turning point tonight, it gave Li Xun a very heavy blow. The sudden shattering of dreams and hopes can often destroy a person's will and spirit. Li Xun may not be so fragile, but at this moment, he felt a great sense of frustration, which made him very painful and uncomfortable.

Sima Tu whispered: "Lord, don't think too much. Concubine Li will become the empress dowager in the future. With her on it, the lord can at least guarantee the life of Ronggui. This is actually quite good."
