MTL - The Human Emperor-Chapter 31 The determination of the prince!

"boom!"

When the news came, the court shook.

This sudden change made all the courtiers in the DPRK smell an unusual smell.

Emperor Tang came to the throne for more than 20 years and had a deep relationship with the empress and his wife. The image of the eldest prince Li Xuan drawn by the empress was extremely favored. A few years ago, the empress passed away, and the emperor Tang missed his old feelings. Li Xuantu was excellent in every way and even surpassed the emperor. So soon after, the emperor announced that Li Xuantu was standing in the east palace and became the prince.

Over the years, Emperor Li Xuantu's excellent performance was all in his eyes, and he was very satisfied with it.

Therefore, even if Empress Dou De is favored again, Emperor Tang will take into account the status of the eldest prince, and there is very little to give the third prince Li Taiyi a moment of restraint.

——The harem is favored and the government pays more attention to it, which will surely cause a battle between the princes.

Emperor Tang naturally understood this kind of thing, but today...

Participate in politics!

This command seems simple, but no one in the hall does not understand the extraordinary weight of these four words.

No matter how respected the identity of the prince is, it is only the prince after all. Without the power granted by his majesty, they will never have real power.

And once he got permission from the Emperor Tang and entered the former dynasty to discuss politics, he had extraordinary powers.

Since His Majesty became the throne, among the many princes and princes, currently only two have been allowed to enter the Hall of Supreme Harmony to participate in politics, one is the prince Li Xuantu and the other is the second prince Li Chengyi.

And now there is another third prince Li Taiyi.

Everyone's eyes flickered, and for a while, the changes in the court became more erratic.

...

Time slowly passed, and despite being criticized by some courtiers, Li Taiyi seized this opportunity keenly.

Unlike before, now Li Taiyi's subordinates have gathered a large number of counsellors, Wang Jiuling, Wang Haibin, Zhang Shougui, Albus, Zhang Qiu Jianqiong...

All of these people are behind the scenes to help Li Taiyi.

With his outstanding performance in the court, flood management, and construction of official roads, Li Taiyi's reputation and prestige are getting higher and higher, and more and more civil servants and generals are surrendering to him. The pattern in the court is also quietly happening. Has changed upside down.

"His Royal Highness, the three princes have gained a lot of fame in recent days. Not only are the ministers of the Central Government favoring him more and more, but even the weight of the people among the people is getting heavier. It's not good to go on like this!"

"Yes, Your Highness, because you have long been appointed as your prince, Emperor Tang has always tried his best to avoid suspicion. However, after the three princes gained fame, the attitude of the Emperor Tang towards the three princes has changed significantly, and now he is even more successful. The qualifications of the dynasty, and..., now all the people in the dynasty are rumoring that Emperor Tang wants to change the prince!"

"Yes, and I heard that the celestial phenomena have changed, and the three princes will inherit the Datong in the future. The scholars all say that the hexagrams have been revealed!"

...

At this moment, in the East Palace, Li Xuantu also gathered a large number of aides, these people looked solemn, and seemed a little anxious about the recent changes in the court.

However, the big prince Li Xuantu on the main seat did not speak, just holding a celadon tea cup with a gloomy expression, and gently sipped the cup of fragrant tea.

The lights were dim, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"His Majesty, a small amount is not a gentleman, non-toxic and not a husband. The subordinates know that His Highness is broad-minded and care about brotherhood. This is my honor. But the struggle for the throne is cruel, and the three princes may not be righteous."

At this moment, an old man with a goatee spoke.

He seemed quite prestigious among the staff. In the East Palace, almost all the staff nodded frequently, obviously agreeing with the old goatee's opinion.

"Old Xu, this palace understands what you mean, but you are just guessing, and there is no evidence that the third brother is the purple star."

Li Xuantu put down his tea cup and slowly spoke to the old goatee. He frowned slightly. Obviously, he also had doubts, but he didn't want to admit it.

"His Royal Highness, the power of the three princes is gradually increasing, we must pay attention to it!"

"The old man knows that his Royal Highness is unbelievable, but it is difficult to draw a tiger and a skin, knowing the face and not knowing the heart. Before the rise of the three princes, who could think of how stubborn he used to rob civilian girls and kill people in the street?

Xu Lao advised.

Xu Lao is the vassal of the eldest prince’s birth mother. He grew up watching the eldest prince grow up, and he already had special feelings in his heart, and before the death of the queen, he specifically asked him to help the prince. Naturally, Xu Lao didn’t want the prince to grow up. His hard work was ruined.

Listening to Xu Lao's words, Li Xuantu fell into deep thought, and for a while, he thought of the words of his second brother Li Chengyi again.

"The third brother's temperament has changed drastically. If the emperor still looks down on him as much as before... If you stumble in the future, don't blame the minister for not reminding him.-You know, there are still many examples of pretending to be pigs and tigers. of."

At first he thought that the second brother was only jealous of the third brother's fame and fame, but after all this, Li Xuantu had to believe it.

On the other side, looking at Li Xuantu's pensive expression, Xu Lao didn't know what was thinking, a faint trace of distress flashed across his eyes, and then he gritted his teeth as if he had made up his mind, and said in a deep voice:

"His Royal Highness, the old man knows that this will remind His Highness of sadness, but His Highness must understand that there is a Lady Dou De above the Third Prince who can help speak, but Your Highness..."

At the end of the talk, Old Xu sighed deeply and said nothing. But everyone on the scene knew what he meant, and for a while, everyone fell silent.

Empress Dou De did not help the Third Highness to speak once or twice, especially since the Three Highnesses committed so many misfortunes before, they can be turned into trivial things. Now, the Third Highness has been reborn, not Wuxia Amon. , Whether it is Empress Dou De or His Royal Highness, they will be more loved by Emperor Tang.

If you want to change the prince, it is not impossible.

On the other hand, Li Xuantu, his biological mother died young, and there was no one around him who could help in front of the Emperor Tang. He could only step out on his own, one step at a time. It was hard to imagine.

And it is precisely because of this and the talent that Li Xuantu has shown that everyone gathered here to help him.

"This is our own decision, so don't worry about it."

Seeing everyone's worried look, the eldest prince finally spoke.

How could he not know the thoughts in everyone's hearts? It's just a difficult step. Some things are done, I'm afraid it will be too late.

Afterwards, after discussing for a while, everyone broke up.

Quietly in the East Palace, there was no one else except Li Xuantu. He kept the posture of everyone leaving, holding the celadon teacup, sitting motionless on the main seat.

I don't know how long it took, huh, a cool autumn breeze blew, extinguishing the dim lights in the East Palace.

"boom!"

As darkness enveloped the East Palace, a crisp sound of broken porcelain suddenly came from the darkness.

Seeing through the sound, in the dark, Li Xuantu's hand holding the teacup was full of cold tea, and his fingers were pierced by broken porcelain pieces. In an instant, drops of redness followed his slender and white fingers. , Dripping to the ground, very dazzling.

"The third brother, you are forcing me!"

At that moment, as if Li Taiyi was right in front of him, Li Xuantu's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and his expression was terrifying.

...

Time flickered, it was late autumn, and the breeze was getting cooler, blowing a scent of cold fragrance across the palace, rolling up pieces of ginkgo, dyeing the forest, and the ground was golden.

According to rumors, Emperor Taizong planted a ginkgo tree in Guanyin Temple in Dongshi. Later, the temple kept burning incense.

The Emperor Tang had always admired Emperor Taizong since he was a child, so he learned that Emperor Taizong planted several ginkgo trees in the palace. Although there were no special effects, Emperor Tang became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty for the longest time.

Emperor Tang believed that it was the ginkgo tree that allowed him to get the blessing of Emperor Taizong, so every year, a special person took care of the ginkgo tree, day after day, year after year, and now the ginkgo tree has become strong and strong.

Especially near the early winter, the ginkgo trees in the palace are like wearing golden armor. Once the wind has passed, the ground is golden, very stunning.

And even on such a dark cloud covering the moon night, the golden ginkgo is very eye-catching.

"Da da da!"

Everywhere in the palace in the middle of the night, tidy steps sounded every once in a while.

In order to prevent uninvited guests such as assassins and killers from entering the palace, the Forbidden Army had to strictly implement the changing of the guard at all times. Upon closer inspection, each team was patrolling crosswise, so tight that it was difficult for a fly to break in.

"call out!"

But at this moment, accompanied by an inaudible sound of breaking the wind, a shadow hare flew up and fell, and suddenly passed from the end of a banned army that had just changed the guard.

The last ban on the team moved his ears and looked back subconsciously, except for a few golden ginkgo leaves that seemed to be swept by the wind. There was nothing unusual. He quickly turned his head and followed the team towards the next changing of the guard.

"call!"

In the darkness at the corner of the palace, a pair of bright eyes suddenly appeared. After watching the imperial army leave, with a cool breeze, a few golden ginkgo leaves were rolled up again. This shadow was silent, and this place The darkness merged and disappeared quickly.

The masters in the palace are like clouds, and the patrolling forbidden army alone has good strength, not to mention the old monsters hidden in the depths of the palace.

Sombra can sneak into the palace without disturbing anyone, and his strength is obviously extraordinary.

When the black shadow appeared again, there was already a magnificent palace in front of him.

The four corners of the palace are raised high, and a large hollow lantern is hung below each. Under the dim night, it is as graceful as four flying swallows with lanterns spreading their wings.

With moonlight shining in, the majestic palace in the daytime, at this moment, reveals a quiet and extravagant atmosphere.

This palace is indeed the Yulong Palace where Li Taiyi is located.
