Cui Wenxiang closed his eyes, and Li Yuanji stopped talking. He knew that Cui Wenxiang was considering major issues, and he would only close his eyes like this when considering major issues.

After a long time, Cui Wenxiang slowly opened her eyes and asked, "Your Highness, I'm a little worried about Li Shenfu."

"I agree if you say that the second uncle of Shentong is worried, but I don't know who the third uncle of Shenfu is? He knows that the assassination in Yongxian County was ours and helped us put iron needles in the East Palace. He has absolutely no problem."

"Your Highness, Bei Zhi knows that you believe in him. In fact, I also believe that he is different from Li Shentong and may not be loyal to the emperor, but this is his unreliability. He only has himself in his heart, and he will support His Highness, but in fact he will definitely keep his hands. If His Highness fails, he will be more ruthless than anyone else in the counterattack. Your Highness, his cup is a bit leaky!"

Li Yuanji's face also changed a little. Cui Wenxiang was right. Li Shenfu was indeed the kind of person who only considered his own interests, otherwise he would not have left the army and escaped from Bashu by himself.

"Then how to deal with him?"

Cui Wenxiang pondered for a moment and said, "I remember Your Highness told me that one of his concubines and his beloved illegitimate sons live in a different house in Xuanyangfang."

Everyone knew that Li Shenfu was chosen by his wife, and he had no problem with him, but he fell in love with a Le Ji in a Le Fang in Pingkangfang, redeemed her, and sold her a different house in Xuanyangfang next door. Last year, Le Ji gave birth to a son for him, which looked exactly the same as Li Shenfu. He was so happy that his heart was almost blown up. He was afraid of melting his mouth and holding it in his hand, and he was afraid of falling. He thought about how to bring the mother and son back to the palace all day long.

He once asked Li Yuanji for help, so Li Yuanji learned about this.

Li Yuanji immediately understood what Cui Wenxiang meant, "Sir, do you mean to get that child into your hands?"

Cui Wenxiang nodded, "With this child being hostage, Cui Wenxiang doesn't dare to do it too much even if she wants to keep a move. He should cooperate with us."

"I understand, I will do this."

Cui Wenxiang said again: "There is also the General of the Jinwu Guard, Li Gaoqian. His Highness will win him over at all costs. If he is not attracted, then he will simply kill him and then find a way to let our people control the Jinwu Guard."

Li Yuanji pondered for a moment and said, "This Li Gaoqian is the King of Qin, and he probably won't be easily attracted. It's better to kill him directly and let Yin Ah Shu take over."

Although Li Yuan said several times that the father-in-law Yin Ah-shu could be the general, Cui Wenxiang still shook his head, "Your Highness, don't think too well. Yin Ah-shu can only be a false general without real power. The general who has five thousand Jinwu Guards will never give it to him, nor will it give it to outsiders, but it must be to the children of the royal family."

"So my father has long disliked Li Gaoqian, right?"

Cui Wenxiang nodded, "You can say this, your highness think about it, which royal family will get this position?"

Li Yuanji thought for a long time and said slowly: "There is only Li Daozong, but he is also the King of Qin."

Cui Wenxiang smiled sinisterly, "If he gets seriously ill after he takes office, the Jinwu Guard will be in the hands of General Ren Wenlian. Your Highness will win over Ren Wenlian!"

"Sir, it's really awesome!"

Li Yuanji sincerely praised that only Cui Wenxiang could imagine this kind of vicious plan. Kill Li Gaoqian and fall ill as the successor, so the real power was in the hands of the deputy general. At this time, Li Yuanji suddenly remembered something, "What should Xuanba do?"

Cui Wenxiang sneered, "It's easy to deal with him, and then your Highness will just invite him to have a drink."

Li Yuanji's face changed drastically, "That's his own brother! How could he do this?"

Cui Wenxiang sighed secretly. Li Yuanji is still a little worse. A woman's kindness cannot do a big deal! He didn't persuade him and said lightly: "There are many results for drinking a glass of wine. Your Highness can choose it yourself."

Li Yuanji nodded silently, he knew what to do.

.........

Since the Great Zhou Dynasty did not have plans to move the capital to Luoyang for the time being, the city expanded by 50% to the north and west. Correspondingly, the Ziwei Palace has also doubled. After more than a year of construction, various buildings have been basically completed. Many provinces and Taiwan have moved to new official rooms one after another, greatly improving the government conditions of officials, and the scope of the harem has also been increased accordingly. An imperial garden covering an area of ​​about ten hectares was added in the northwest corner, and more than 200 pavilions and towers have been added.

Correspondingly, after two drafts, the harem of Emperor Zhang Xuan of the Great Zhou Empire increased from the previous few to twenty, which effectively promoted the reproduction of the descendants of the royal family.

On that morning, the seven prime ministers went from their respective court rooms to Tiange. This was the first time since Zhang Xuan ascended the throne. He summoned all prime ministers to discuss matters in Tiange. All prime ministers were deeply puzzled and walked into Tiange one after another.

"Stand up to you, Fang Shangshu!"

Xiao Yu walked a few steps and caught up with Fang Xuanling from behind. Fang Xuanling smiled and waited for him to come forward, and asked with concern: "I heard that Xiao Xiangguo is sick, and he is in better health?"

"Thank you, Shangshu Fang, for your concern, you have recovered."

Xiao Yu walked side by side with him and asked in a low voice: "Is there something big happening? The emperor actually summoned the Qixian to Tiange to discuss matters."

The relationship between Fang Xuanling and the Emperor has been recently, and the prime ministers can find out some military and national affairs from him.

Fang Xuanling nodded, "Although I don't know the details, it must be the matter in Chang'an. I might as well reveal a little. The emperor may have to command the emperor in person."

"ah!"

Xiao Yu was surprised, "Is the emperor going out again?"

"This time is probably extraordinary."

Xiao Yu nodded and asked again: "When will that be?"

"It shouldn't be recently, but it's too soon, and I don't know much about it."

Xiao Yu was also full of expectations. He patted Fang Xuanling's arm and smiled: "Isn't it our great blessing to have such a talented and powerful emperor?"

"Yes! It's a blessing for all the people in the world."

The two looked at each other and laughed together.

Soon, the two walked into the meeting hall on the third floor. Several prime ministers had arrived first. Everyone greeted each other. After a while, the last three prime ministers came in one after another, including the military aircraft chief Du Ruhui and the priest Ling Jing, also came. The new censor Pei Hong also participated in the meeting. A total of ten ministers had arrived.

At this time, several guards hung up palace lanterns and pulled up the thick curtains. The guards began to clear the scene one by one, and the palace maids upstairs and downstairs retreated outside the building, which all indicates that this would be a very important matter.

With the rumbling sound of the gate, the sky pavilion became particularly quiet. At this time, footsteps on the stairs slowly rang out. The Emperor Zhang Xuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty walked down from the building with his hands, and everyone bowed to salute, "See Your Majesty!"

Zhang Xuan waved his hand and said to everyone: "Dear friends, please sit down!"

Everyone sat down one after another, looking suspiciously at the emperor, what big thing the emperor was going to say today was so mysterious.

"I invite you all to discuss a major event today. Before talking about this major event, I need to talk to you first. This matter is of great importance. Today's talk is limited to Tiange. If you leave Tiange, no one is allowed to mention a few words. Even if you are on your own pillow, you must not reveal a single word. If you are worried that you will leak your sleep, it is best to sleep alone during this period. If anyone leaks this matter, my ugly words will be ahead, including him and his family. The Great Zhou Dynasty will never hire you."

Everyone looked very serious, and the conference hall was so quiet that it was heard. Zhang Xuan sat down in his seat and said slowly to everyone: "Today I received an emergency secret letter from the Chang'an Intelligence Agency. General Li Gaoqian, the general of the Jinwu Guard of the Tang Dynasty, was shot by an arrow near the east city of Chang'an last night. The archery technique was very accurate. He shot through his head and was killed on the spot. Because this archer was a general who was placed in the Xuanwu Jingwei, we knew that this was Li Yuanji who killed Li Gaoqian."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xuan saw a look of confusion in everyone's eyes, and obviously did not understand what Li Yuanji's shooting and killing Li Gaoqian had to do with today's important discussions.

Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "Say that! Li Yuan was almost assassinated in Yongxian County a month ago. It was Li Yuanji who was almost assassinated, including the discovery of steel needles in the Prince's bedroom of the East Palace and Li Yuanji was almost poisoned. These are Li Yuanji's plan. He blamed Li Jiancheng and wanted to promote the abolition of the prince. Unfortunately, he was extravagant and revealed flaws in the case of steel needles in the Donggong. Li Jiancheng was not abolished, but was only demoted to the crown prince. So Li Yuanji had to remain silent again. Fortunately, Li Yuan turned his suspicious target to the King of Qin, and Li Yuanji was spared."

Only then did everyone realize that the Tang Dynasty was about to undergo a palace coup. Everyone began to get excited. Wei Yunqi asked: "Your Majesty, does assassination of Li Gaoqian mean that Li Yuanji has started to act again?"

Zhang Xuan nodded, "I helped Li Yuanji with one arm and sent a surprise troops to seize the Dasan Pass. Li Shentong, who was loyal to Li Yuan, led 40,000 troops to Dasan Pass to fight. This created conditions for Li Yuanji to launch a palace coup. Li Gaoqian held five thousand Jinwu Guards in his hand. Eliminating Li Gaoqian would help Li Yuanji control the Jinwu Guards. I can assert that within three days, the Tang Dynasty will inevitably change the world. Dear friends, the day for us to unify the world is not far away. This is why I summoned you to Tiange today. We are going to prepare for unifying the world."

Everyone was very excited and ready to go. They had been waiting for this day for a long time and finally came.

Zhang Xuan said again: "Please go back and prepare for each person and write a complete unified plan. We will discuss it carefully another day. We can tell our subordinates that we are preparing for the unification of the world. However, if the palace coup is about to occur in the Tang Dynasty, please keep it confidential. I have told you before."

"If a war breaks out, your Majesty will be in charge of the army?" Xiao Yu asked.

Zhang Xuan nodded slowly, "It should be that he wanted to be in charge of the army, but the time may not be now, maybe one or two months later."

After saying that, Zhang Xuan stood up and said, "Please go back and prepare! I want to see everyone's plan."
