Hello Chang'an Chapter 646

This is not the first time Xiao Min has entered the palace, but this time is different from before.

In the past, he had seen this imperial city as majestic and cold, with blood and decay hidden beneath the brilliance.

Today, as he walked along the way, just thinking about who was in control of this imperial city now, he felt infinite peace in his heart, and everything he saw was a sign of new vitality that was in ruins and waiting to be revitalized.

Xiao Min had met Li Suining outside the city a few days ago, but today was a formal meeting, so he changed into new clothes and boots from head to toe. The only old thing on his body was probably the carefully knitted red rope hanging around his waist. Copper coins.

This little copper coin has witnessed too many battles and choices, and carries too many visions and ambitions. As far as Xiao Min is concerned, without General Ning Yuan who consecrated the copper plate, he would not be what he is today.

When he gets old, if he talks about old things with his children and grandchildren, he must start with this copper coin. It is a long story. In the beginning, he was just a man who followed the dignified fifth-rank General Ningyuan to collect military honors. The little coach...

Xiao Min imagined how to word it.

When he arrived outside the East Palace, he hurriedly straightened his expression, cupped his hands in front of the outer palace, and said in a straight tone: "Xiao Min, the envoy of the Lingnan Dao Festival, has come to ask for an audience with Her Royal Highness. I'd like to have my father-in-law pass the news on my behalf."

After the chamberlain greeted him, he bowed and entered the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Li Suining, who was behind the desk, was talking to a young chamberlain: "Zhai Xi, you go to the Chu Mansion again today and ask a few doctors about the Taifu's situation carefully..."

It was not until yesterday that Taifu finally woke up.

The young chamberlain named Zhai Xi respectfully responded.

Li Suining explained some other things, and Zhai Xi wrote them down word for word.

On the night three days ago, after Zhai Xi collected Mr. Luo's body, he followed Li Suining with his head lowered and followed him to the east palace now.

At a time when everything was being handed over in confusion, Zhai Xi had no specific duties, so he would do whatever the concubine asked him to do. When the concubine did not explain it, he would take the initiative to take care of the trivial matters at hand.

Soon, Xiao Min was admitted to the inner hall.

After Xiao Min saluted, Zhai Xi bowed and silently bowed to Xiao Min, then bowed his head and left.

When he was about to leave the East Palace, he saw the young prime minister coming in the morning light, followed by two chamberlains, one of whom held a large basket of seasonal flowers in his arms.

Zhai Xi stopped to one side and saluted Wei Shuyi.

The two large baskets of brightly colored flowers soon appeared in front of Li Suining.

Li Suining liked it very much. She stood up from behind the desk and bent down to look at it while listening to Xiao Min's report.

At first glance, this scene makes people feel that the prince is not doing his job properly and lacks dignity, but it makes people feel that the hall is full of vigor and vitality, and the air filled with the fragrance of flowers is full of freshness and lightness.

And this prince does not need to sit upright at all times to show her majesty.

No matter what actions she takes or how she appears, no one will dare to look down upon her.

Wei Shuyi watched quietly with a smile.

When Xiao Minhui reported the matter, his tone unconsciously became brisk. Of course, what he brought was originally good news - Li Yin's remnants outside the city, including the Qianzhong Road army, had been put down, although a few escapees were still there. The hunt is ongoing, but the overall situation has been decided.

The key to such rapid progress lies in the "Middle Qiandao Army".

Furthermore, the key to why Li Suining was able to surpass Li Yin's expectations was that he quickly broke through the gate of the capital three days ago with only more than 30,000 troops.

Xiao Min came to the capital secretly with the Qianzhong Dao army. In other words, it was Xiao Min who controlled the coming of the Qianzhong Dao army to the capital.

This matter begins when She Kui, the envoy of the Central Guizhou Province, received Li Yin's order to mobilize troops... Li Yin had previously given instructions that the army in central Guizhou was already prepared and would only wait for the order from the capital. Can leave immediately.

So very quickly - She Kui died very quickly.

The order was received in the morning, and the order was lost that night.

The murderer is Changsun Fu.

She Kui is dead, and it is impossible to hide this matter without even a trace of news. First of all, it is impossible to hide it from the She family, but the person who set up the murder has never thought of hiding it-

She Kuinai was born in a poor family. He tried his best, and with the secret support of Li Yin, he finally became a military governor.

Once he has power, he wants it to be passed down for a long time. She Kui has always longed for those prominent families who have been married for generations. He wants to make up for his poor background. This is one of the reasons why he persists in seeking to marry a girl from the eldest son's family.

At the same time, She Kui invited knowledgeable scholars to teach his children.

Year after year, his eldest son She Shao grew up into a noble gentleman with noble moral character as he wished.

This gentleman is too upright. He believes in the way of the benevolent and has developed a saintly heart. He is almost demanding on himself, the people around him, and even his father.

Differences gradually emerged between father and son. She Kui began to get tired of his eldest son's ignorance of flexibility. He completely believed in the false and empty words in the sages' books, and did not understand the true foundation of the world at all. He was really stupid in reading.

The person She Shao admired the most was Mr. Zheng Chao and Zheng Guancang. He respected him for his courage to pursue his ideals and ambitions without fear of worldly opinions, even if he rebelled against his clan and killed his brother.

She Shao was persuaded by Changsun Ji - after he heard about the evil deeds Li Yin had done, and he informed his father of these actions that were no different from those of evil spirits, he repeatedly persuaded him to kneel down and beg his father to turn back, but his father was indifferent and instead rejected him with complete contempt. After waiting for him.

She Shao became the insider of Changsun's family, including the death of his father.

But in this plan, She Shao alone is not enough.

There was another person who had the authority to supervise the army on behalf of Li Yin. If the march was to continue, it would be impossible for She Kui's death to be hidden from him—Li Cong.

Last year, before Li Yin left for Beijing, Li Cong was left behind to clear out Xiao Min's army and monitor She Kui's troops on the Central Guizhou Road.

However, Li Cong failed to severely damage Xiao Min's army until news spread that Li Yin was about to ascend the throne, and Xiao Min expressed his surrender.

This made the frustrated Li Cong feel like a stick in his throat. He had no choice but to be ordered to temporarily control Xiao Min's army. It was also at that time that he received a letter from Li Lu.

That was an extremely long letter.

Li Lu made it clear in the letter that he did not have much time left, and also explained the origin of his mutilated body.

Afterwards, Li Lu, as his elder brother, analyzed Li Cong's situation in detail, asking Li Cong to recognize the fact that his father could not recognize him back. Every word was a reminder and advice.

Li Cong placed eyes and ears around Li Lu, and he quickly confirmed through many clues that Li Lu was not going to die soon.

Even so, he would not be stupid enough to believe that Li Lu's letter was really out of good intentions, but...the purpose is not important, the facts are important.

Once the dust in front of the mirror was wiped away, he could no longer deceive himself and others. Li Cong had been anxious for a long time before that. After seeing the letter, he had to start to face his position.

He finally saw clearly that he in the mirror was a chess piece, an abandoned piece that could not be tolerated.

After seeing the truth clearly, Li Cong first felt fear, and then became angry. (End of chapter)
