"Auxiliary machine, how are you today? But there is good news. What did the prince say?" In the secret room of Changsun's mansion, as the door of the secret room opened, Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui slowly walked in, and Wei Ting hurriedly greeted them.

He walked up, with a look of joy on his face. Wei Ting had already known about Changsun Wuji being welcomed into the chariot by Lu Chenglie.

"Prince Liang returned to court, and His Highness the Crown Prince only welcomed him, but did not send him back." Wang Gui stood behind him and said coldly: "His Royal Highness welcomed Prince Liang and left us all outside Chang'an City. Brother Fuji did the same.

I’ve been disgraced.”

"Prince Liang is still in court?" Wei Ting's expression changed, and he said nervously: "Why did Prince Liang come back?"

"If he doesn't come back, who will kill those foreigners on the official roads in the Western Regions? Apart from his troops, whose troops will be left?" Changsun Wuji sneered and said, "It's all King Liang, if it wasn't him.

, I, I will not lose such a big face." When Changsun Wuji thought of what just happened, he wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in.

"Auxiliary engine, don't you know about Chang'an?" Wei Ting asked nervously.

"There is no news at all." Wang Gui glanced at Changsun Wuji and said softly: "Something is not good now. Mr. Wei, you have to be prepared."

"You?" Wei Ting's expression changed and he pointed at Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui, but he was speechless.

"Stop talking." Changsun Wuji frowned and said: "There is something weird about this matter. The prince will not be so rude and cut my face out of thin air. The prince is a kind person and will not act so ridiculously.

Your uncle was left at the city gate, don't you think this is a bit strange?"

"What do you mean by auxiliary engine?" Wang Gui's face changed and he asked nervously.

"There must be a reason for this." Wei Ting also said nervously.

"What could make the prince so flustered?" Wang Gui asked in surprise.

"The Emperor is back." Changsun Wuji's eyes lit up, and he suddenly sighed and said: "Only when the Emperor is back will the Crown Prince be so nervous. Then Di Renjie will not easily get the military power, and even orders those soldiers to sweep across the entire country.

Guan Long said, Prince Liang would not have the guts to carry out such a murderous intention, and Di Renjie would not have the guts either. This is related to national policy and cannot be achieved by anyone. No one else would be able to do this.

Li Jing would not be like this, and Cen Wenwen would not be like this. Only the emperor ordered this kind of thing to happen."

"It can't be said that the emperor has returned to Chang'an. Doesn't he want to fight? Once the southwest falls, the entire country will be shaken." Wei Ting shook his head, but his face showed worry and fear. He was also the founder of the country.

Master, if you want to deal with him, I am afraid that the prince is not qualified. Only the emperor returns to the court. If the emperor returns to the court, then his head must be taken, and he cannot be cautious.

"How do you know if there is really a problem in the southwest?" Changsun Wuji sneered: "Qin Huaiyu was also the queen of the generals after all. There were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses around him at that time, and there were hundreds of thousands of reinforcements. So many people.

How could we be defeated so easily? The emperor just played a trick to confuse us."

"Then why did he rush back to Chang'an suddenly?" Wei Ting frowned and sneered: "I still know my identity. Based on the crime I committed, a piece of edict is enough to make me drink myself. Where?

Your Majesty needs to return the favor in person. Auxiliary machine, I am afraid you will guess wrong this time."

"If it weren't for other things, the emperor would not return to the court." Changsun Wuji also nodded and said: "He won't let people tell jokes. If the imperial commander personally marches, if there is no major event, it is impossible to suddenly

For those who return to the army, if they suddenly return to the army at this time, big things will happen.”….

"What on earth is going on?" Wei Ting and Wang Gui frowned for a moment. There must be something interesting in this, but what exactly is going on surprised the three of them. It's so unreasonable to want to lead a military expedition in person.

Tell the world about the important events of the past. They have sacrificed to the gods of the mountains and rivers, and either returned in triumph or returned in failure. Now it’s good. I don’t know what happened. The emperor came back like this. How can we not surprise people? Once it spreads

Going out will also be a big event.

"Master, master."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside, and then an old man in green clothes walked in. Without even looking at the two of them, he whispered softly in Changsun Wuji's ear, then stepped back and looked.

His appearance is not impressive, but he can easily appear in Changsun Wuji's secret room, which shows that this person is probably a close confidant of Changsun Wuji. I don't know what kind of news this person has brought to Changsun Wuji.

Wei Ting and Wang Gui couldn't help but look at Changsun Wuji.

"The prince just summoned Prince Liang and Di Renjie." Changsun Wuji had a strange look in his eyes, and continued: "The emperor also entered the East Palace. The four of them discussed for a long time, and then the emperor and Prince Liang left the palace and returned.

When we arrived at the Shanghuang's residence, the princes from the clans in Chang'an City also went to see the Shanghuang."

"Emperor?" Wei Ting and Wang Gui looked at each other. Emperor Lu Changqing disappeared in Chang'an City no matter how many years ago. Many ministers had forgotten about him for many years, and he had never appeared in the eyes of the ministers. They did not expect that he

What's surprising is that he actually appeared in the East Palace at this time, which can't help but surprise people. Wang Gui and Wei Ting were naturally surprised. There were also those clan nobles, although they were not princes, they were at the level of princes after all.

Although they have no status within the imperial court, they have to admit that these people still have some rights within the clan.

"What are these clans involved in? They have no rights. They just get some money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs all day long. What are they still causing trouble in Chang'an City?" Wang Gui said disdainfully. Although these people are clansmen.

, although he is also the Lu family, Lu Zhaoci's background is really poor, and Lu Zhaoci is even more striving for excellence. Whether it is the authentic or side branch of the Lu family, it is impossible to become a clan member without talent and virtue.

, As a result, there are not many royal families in the Tang Dynasty today, and Lu Zhaoci did not allow these people to participate in politics, so the royal family did not have much power. Nobles from aristocratic families such as Wang Gui did not sell their accounts. Today, however,

Unexpectedly, these clans actually appeared in Chang'an City and went to pay homage to the Emperor. If there was no mystery in this, no one would believe it.

"Something serious has happened in the imperial court. Otherwise, the clan would not have appeared." Changsun Wuji frowned and said.

"Could it be that the emperor passed away?" Wei Ting's eyes lit up. He was thinking about this question. Once the emperor passed away, the prince would ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Not only would he and others be pardoned for their sins, but more importantly, Guanzhong

The aristocratic family can also prosper because of this. So Wei Ting opened his mouth and spoke out what was in his heart.

"If he died so easily, then he would have been killed by Li Yuan and his son." Changsun Wuji sneered. In Changsun Wuji's life, I am afraid that the thing he regretted most was not Lu Zhaoci.

Killing and not assisting Li Shimin to become a wise king led to today's situation. If he killed Lu Zhaoci and made Li Shimin the emperor, he could believe that the person sitting in Cen Wen's position now would definitely be him, and Li Shimin would not be able to

Like Lu Zhaoci, he has countless talented people, and he will abandon anyone he says. His Changsun Wuji is as talented as a prime minister. It is difficult to find such a person. However, with the development of the imperial examination system, there are countless talented people in the Tang Dynasty.

, causing his Changsun Wuji to also finish class immediately, which made Changsun Wuji feel very uncomfortable and depressed. But there was no way to do it. It was a pity that this was just a dream...

.

"My lord, my lord. Urgent report, urgent report." At this moment, another panicked business message came over. Soon, the old man from before was seen rushing in in a hurry, without caring about the presence of everyone, he heard him

He said loudly: "The news from Zhongcui Palace is that His Majesty has returned to court. After the Queen returned to the palace, she was still thinking about what should be done, what should be done. The words of a tiger's poison will not eat its seeds."

"He is really back." Wei Ting's face was so frightened that he couldn't help but retreat. Even Wang Gui's face showed panic, so much so that Changsun Wuji actually put the spies into his sister's palace.

This news was ignored.

"You go down first." Changsun Wuji frowned. This was the worst news. Changsun Wuji felt as if a heavy stone was weighing on his heart. He didn't know what to do because what he couldn't figure out was

, why did the emperor return to the court at this time, and did it so secretly? Is it really to deal with himself? Or, in other words, did he not want people to know that he did not go to the southwest battlefield? Or it was because of other things. Changsun Wuji

I suddenly felt that there must be an article in this.

"Tiger poison does not eat its seeds?" Changsun Wuji suddenly felt as if he had found some secret, but the truth was always obscured by fog, making people unable to see everything clearly. Changsun Wuji was very happy.

trouble.

"Auxiliary machine, what should we do now?" Wei Ting suddenly felt as if a disaster was approaching and asked quickly. Lu Zhaoci returned the court, obviously because of the Chang'an and Luoyang incidents, but both of these incidents were related to him.

Di Renjie swept across the entire Guanlong Road, which is enough to explain all this. There has been no news from Wei Shouguang for many days. Some people said that among Di Renjie's returning army, he saw young men one after another, whose clothes and appearance looked exactly like Wei Shouguang's.

Shouguang Wei Ting knew that he was finished. This time Lu Zhaoci returned to court, which made him suffer a big loss this time, and he had to pay for it with his life and family.

"I'm wondering what the tiger's poison does not eat its seeds." Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Perhaps when His Majesty comes back this time, he will not simply deal with the Chang'an and Luoyang cases, but because there is something else.

It's important. Otherwise, it's impossible to come back in person. Just like Brother Wei said, just an edict is enough. Why does your Majesty need to come in person? It's obviously something else. If I guessed it right,

, I’m afraid it has a lot to do with those princes.”

"Prince? The Chang'an Luoyang case?" Wei Ting frowned and said: "Is it possible that some prince was involved in it? If it is possible, I am afraid that a prince was involved in the Luoyang corruption case. After all,

With millions of dollars in money, those princes may also be involved. I think that Zheng Renji is also the head of the Guandong family. To make such a person obey orders, he is either an emperor or a prince. Your Majesty wants to weaken the family, not to mention

, this matter involves the national policy of the imperial court, and it is impossible for His Majesty to let Zheng Renji do such a thing. In this case, only the prince is involved in this matter, so His Majesty will rush back to deal with the matter in person." I have to say this.

After all, Wei Ting had worked in the Ministry of Justice, and his analysis of the case was clear and logical. He described the matter as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"If that's the case, it's a good opportunity." Changsun Wuji's eyes lit up and he said: "Although Chang'an and Luoyang are separate cases, they are actually one case, and we are responsible for the Chang'an matter.

, but the Luoyang case involved the prince, who embezzled millions of dollars, and all the corrupt officials in Luoyang were poisoned and killed by the prince. Although these corrupt officials were also people who deserved to be killed, they could not be killed by the prince.

In comparison, we only killed Liu Hui and others. In real terms, our guilt is the lightest. It’s just that we are ministers and the other person is a prince. The so-called prince breaking the law has nothing to do with

The common people are guilty of the same crime. Your Majesty often talks about this sentence. Now that the prince has broken the law, and he has committed such a big thing, if your Majesty does not deal with it, how can he serve as a warning to the people of the world?"...

"If you don't deal with this prince, how will your Majesty deal with Brother Wei?" Wang Gui quickly reacted, and his face suddenly showed excitement. It would be a bad idea to abandon Wei, because if the Guanzhong family is missing,

If Wei Shi's words were taken, his strength would be greatly reduced. Changsun Wuji, Wei Ting, and Wang Gui can be said to be the troika of the Guanzhong family, and none of them would be able to do without them. If we can take advantage of this opportunity, we can still save Wei Shi.

A very good thing.

"Yes, the law does not punish the public. If the prince has nothing to do, how can your majesty deal with me? In the end, all you can do is raise the board in your hand and then put it down gently." Wei Ting's face

A smile suddenly appeared on his face. A trace of rosy appeared on his originally gray face. The days of panic were about to be gone forever. Wei Ting's life was saved, and although Wei Ting would suffer some losses, it was still relatively difficult.

Compared with genocide, what is there?

"No matter who this prince is now, we have to protect him." Changsun Wuji shook his head, and he himself felt a little ashamed, thinking who made the laws of the Tang Dynasty.

It took several years to formulate Lu Zhaoci's imperial edict, but now, it is ridiculous to overthrow it by yourself. When Changsun Wuji thought of this, he couldn't help but look in the direction of the imperial city, and felt in his heart

He sighed secretly: "Your Majesty, this is all for forcing me. Although there are many talents in poor families, there are also many talents in aristocratic families. Why are you so partial to the aristocratic families? And Cen Wenwen, although he is very talented

, but my eldest son Wuji is not far behind. Did you just see Cen Wenwen and not my eldest son Wuji?"

"Then I will recruit people and submit a letter together." Wang Gui did not notice the strange look on Changsun Wuji's face. He said with a smile: "This is a good opportunity. Maybe we can still take advantage of this."

There might be a chance to return to the center of the court again."

"Let's go and take a look. The actions of those in the clan will not be hidden for long. There must be news coming about which prince they are planning to protect. When the time comes, they will call on other people to submit a letter together, and they must protect this guy." Changsun Wu

Ji waved his hand and said.

Lu Zhaoci didn't know the situation outside at this time. Although he also knew that the news of his return would not be hidden for long, what he didn't expect was that at this time, someone was actually ready to jointly guarantee Lu Chengtai. As for how to deal with Lu Chengtai, he
To be continued...
