There is an old saying since ancient times that there is no airtight wall in the world.

Especially Chang'an is the imperial capital, and it is difficult to hide important news, so what happened this night is actually paying attention to all parties.

Not taking action does not mean that you don’t care. On the contrary, it is because you care that you appear cautious.

The night is hazy, deep in the palace.

A song and dance are melodious, and the dance of the palace maids is fascinating. This is "The Song of the Bright Skirts and Feather Clothes", which was made by the emperor himself. It is known that it has eighteen music scores and is the pearl of a brilliant generation.

However, no matter how good the dance music is, it depends on the person who appreciates it. If the person who appreciates it cannot be interested, then no matter how good the dance music is, it will not be attractive.

Chacha, the current emperor cannot raise any interest.

Under the bright lights, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang looked sleepy and suddenly yawned gently and started fighting with his eyelids.

Gao Lishi's voice immediately sounded beside him and said quietly: "If your Majesty is tired, it's better to rest early."

However, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang seemed to have never heard of it, but continued to insist on appreciating the singing and dancing, but anyone could see that the emperor was obviously a little absent-minded.

Gao Lishi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to persuade him again, but hesitated for a moment and finally chose to keep silent.

So the singing and dancing in the hall remained the same, and the palace maids continued to dance gracefully.

But at this moment, the emperor spoke slowly, as if he was casually speaking, and seemed to have a deep meaning, and asked lightly: "Have they all left?"

This sentence was so headless that he had no idea who the emperor was asking. However, Gao Lishi seemed to have expected it and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, both prime ministers have left. He has left the palace at this time, and the palace gate has been locked."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang nodded and suddenly asked again: "When they left, were they still quarreling on the road?"

Gao Lishi thought for a while and replied cautiously: "The two prime ministers have always had disagreements, but there was no quarrel this time. Instead, they were like old friends for many years, and they seemed extremely harmonious. This made the old slave a little confused. This was the first time that I saw them like this..."

This old eunuch is really slick.

He said he didn't understand, but in fact he understood everything in his heart. The reason why he didn't understand was simply to leave the opportunity to show off to the emperor.

Sure enough, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang smiled and said lightly: "They did not quarrel. They only showed harmony because they reached an agreement. This was deliberately done for me to see."

Gao Lishi hurriedly gathered up the fun and pretended to be confused and asked, "I dared to ask Your Majesty to solve the doubts."

The emperor was very satisfied and sat upright slightly and said, "Li Linfu has always advocated the use of Hu Chen. Why did he value Hu Chen? It was simply that he accepted the benefits of others. In addition, he had another layer of selfishness. What was he giving up? It was because he wanted to use Hu Chen to suppress Han Chen's selfishness."

Gao Lishi quickly asked again deliberately: "Why is this? The old slave is becoming more and more confused."

The emperor laughed and said leisurely: "The court has five hundred important officials, and there are only so many positions to be promoted. If the ministers want to go further, they must covet the position of the prime minister."

As he stopped, he continued, "It was because of this concern that Li Linfu advocated the use of Hu Chen. Because if Hu Chen was strong, the ministers in the court would be under pressure. Once the ministers were under pressure, they would have the intention of counterattacking."

This time, Gao Lishi did not pretend not to understand, but showed some cleverness at the right time and said, "The ministers will definitely involve energy when they fight back against Hu Chen, so no one can take care of Li Linfu's position. I don't know if this idea is right."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang praised him and said, "It is barely good to be able to see through this."

Gao Lishi hurriedly praised, saying, "It's all His Majesty's wise and powerful, and the old servant learned some things."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang laughed.

After laughing, his face suddenly turned solemn and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Jiuling is just the opposite. He has been hostile to Hu Chen all his life, so he has disagreements with Li Linfu and has irreconcilable disputes..."

"However, tonight, they reached a tacit understanding, so they asked for a meeting late at night and deliberately showed me a harmonious attitude."

Gao Lishi began to pretend to be stupid again and said with a confused expression: "Can Your Majesty tell me about the old slave? What tacit understanding have they reached?"

But the emperor slowly raised his hand, made a snap of his fingers, and said, "That tacit understanding, if I finger, popped out, it means leaving. If I didn't pop out, it means controlling. Zhang Jiuling wanted to let Guo Ziyi go, Li Linfu wanted Guo Ziyi to stay, one wanted to protect and the other wanted to kill, so simple, that's all..."

He is truly the emperor.

Although I have grown old, after all, the emperor seems to be understatement, but in fact, it means insight into everything.

Suddenly the emperor's eyes were relaxed, he looked at Gao Lishi indifferently, and said with a smile: "Have you ever left the palace tonight and went to the death jail to meet Guo Ziyi quietly? If my guess is correct, it should be Yang Yuhuan who asked you to go."

With a thud!

Gao Lishi knelt down directly.

Although there is no answer, it is no different.

However, the emperor seemed not angry, but sighed softly, as if he was talking to himself, and seemed meaningful, saying, "I am old and have very little energy. The so-called life is rare since seventy years old, and I am already sixty-two years old. What is rare since ancient times? It is rare since ancient times? It is rare since ancient times? It is rare since ancient times. Since ancient times, there are very few people who live to the age of seventy. Although I am an emperor, I have no confidence."

"So, I figured it out a few years ago. I have to enjoy it so that I can live my life."

"I have been turbulent and magnificent in my life. When I was young, I was not valued, hid on the edge, and was excluded. At that time, my aunt, Princess Taiping, held great power and almost became the second female emperor. However, when I rose up, I directly decided to fight for the throne."

"Therefore, the world evaluates that I have great talents and strategies."

"From then on, I became an emperor, and from then on, I was determined to make progress, spread the territory and expand the territory. I led the subjects of the Tang Dynasty to suppress the world and create a peaceful and peaceful Kaiyuan prosperous era. At that time, I was very energetic."

"But people will eventually get old, and I am old now."

"I have worked hard for most of my life and am unwilling to die like this. I have let countless people eat a lot, but I have been tired and tired all my life. This is not worth it, very not worth it."

"So, I want to enjoy myself, enjoy myself in time, and enjoy myself vigorously."

"I know everything about the court, and I see the disputes between the ministers, but I don't want to worry about them anymore. I will fight them as much as possible."

"For example, Li Linfu wants to kill Guo Ziyi, but I actually don't know. Even the words Guo Ziyi shouted on the street, I had already received a reply that day, but I still didn't care about this matter."

"Why don't I care? Because I feel I'm in debt."

"I'm obviously old and can't enjoy women anymore, but I still forcibly accept Yang Yuhuan into the palace. Isn't this the biggest debt to her or him?"

"But, although I feel indebted, I will not change it, because I am an emperor after all."

"So the only way I can show magnanimity and guilt is to not investigate whether he and her have made peace."

A very long passage is like an old man talking nonsense, but no one in the palace dares to treat these words as nagging.

Because it was the emperor who spoke.

Although tigers are old and have a deterrent, they are just that the tiger is tired, but it does not mean that others can stroke the tiger's beard.

...

Gao Lishi obediently knelt on the ground, not daring to speak from beginning to end.

He left the palace tonight and went to the death row of the Ministry of Justice to obey Yang Yuhuan's instructions. If the emperor wanted to pursue the matter, then his actions would be betrayal.

As the emperor's eunuch, he went to help the concubines without telling the emperor. He was not a common thing to help, but helped the concubines contact men...

This crime is enough to kill the whole family.

But it is obvious that Emperor Xuanzong of Tang did not want to punish him. Instead, he waved his hand with a smile and said lightly: "Get up, there is no need to be afraid. I have said that I don't want to care. Since I don't want to care, then you are not guilty."

Gao Lishi kowtowed hard for a few times before he dared to get up carefully.

At this time, the emperor also slowly stood up, looked at the singing and dancing of the hall with his hands behind his back, and suddenly his eyes passed through the hall and looked at the blurry night outside the hall.

After a while, the emperor spoke again and said meaningfully: "Zhang Jiuling wants to protect, Li Linfu wants to kill, but no matter what they fight for, they are fighting for the power of ministers. So for my Tang Dynasty, there is no need to worry that someone will subvert it."

"If Guo Ziyi runs away, run away. He will come back one day in the future. Those generals have a lot of expectations for him and hope that he can become a peerless general. And when he becomes a peerless general, everyone will ask him to protect the Tang Dynasty..."

"So, I give them this opportunity."

These words came from the emperor and meant that the matter was concluded. However, Gao Lishi couldn't help but speak and reminded carefully: "But the old slave is still a little worried, and Li Linfu is afraid that he wouldn't think so."

The emperor laughed, his face showed a sarcastic expression, and said, "Li Linfu is the best at forbearance. At present, all the civil and military officials in the court want to protect Guo Ziyi. Do you think Li Linfu dares to offend this public anger?"

"Even if he wants Guo Ziyi to die, he will choose to take action for a long time instead of making enemies with the civil and military officials of the court now."

The emperor stopped here and said meaningfully: "If Prince Wuyang, Zhang Jiuling, and my General Zuo Yulin, if all of these people were offended by Li Linfu, he would probably not even have the courage to go out."

Gao Lishi pretended to realize suddenly and said quickly: "In other words, Guo Ziyi is destined to be safe and sound. Not only will the civil and military officials in the court secretly help him, but even Li Linfu will choose to endure it."

Emperor Xuanzong of Tang nodded leisurely and said lightly: "My voice has never been wrong."

Unfortunately, the emperor didn't know that he was about to be slapped in the face this time.

Li Linfu really didn't dare to send someone to kill Guo Ziyi, but he couldn't prevent someone from being in trouble with the Li family.

The son has sent people to make a great contribution to the family.
