Chapter 35 Conspiracy

Dozens of high-end dancers in the hall sang and danced, with long sleeves flying, and beautiful figures. What's more wonderful is that they all wear very little, and their dresses are translucent, and their skin is as beautiful as cream, which makes people dazzled.

So Xue Chongxun's mood seemed to improve and he was immersed in a joyful atmosphere.

Princess Taiping noticed the change in Xue Chongxun's expression, and she couldn't help but smile and said with a smile: There are so many beauties, please choose one to accompany you tonight.

Although Princess Taiping is a mother, as a member of the royal family, there is nothing wrong with her doing this. Instead, it is a means of showing closeness. When Wu Zetian was in power, Princess Taiping gave her a male favorite.

Xue Chongxun could not refuse, so he had to say: There are indeed many good things in his mother's house. There are so many beautiful women here, and they all look similar. It's really hard to pick for a while, or just ask for one at a time.

Princess Taiping shook her head: Look again, you won’t say that in a while.

The wine and food are beautiful, and the warm atmosphere makes Xue Chongxun's body and mind soft.

He was actually very depressed. He hadn't done anything in Chang'an in the past two months. He was thinking about encouraging his mother to coup. He didn't know whether the coup could succeed, but he knew that it would definitely be over if he didn't have a coup...

As a result, I racked my brains and did so many things but failed to convince my mother. How could it not be frustrating?

There is no way, his strength is to play with the state machine, it is really like an ant tree, and he can only place hope on his mother.

He thought carefully for a while and remembered that in history, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang ascended the throne for only about two years, and soon as he ascended the throne, he destroyed all Princess Taiping's party...

In fact, everyone will have to finish playing next year. What can I do in one year?

Raise the banner and farm and rebel?

He probably was destroyed or killed by the local army before he started planting. He didn't think that doing this would be successful in the prosperous Tang Dynasty...

At this moment, Princess Taiping reminded: Chongxun, what are you thinking about?

Xue Chongxun hurriedly smiled and said: No, I'm thinking about which dancer is better.

At this time, the silk skirts in the hall were flying, and the dancers gathered together to form a circle, and they all leaned forward, just like a budding flower. Accompanied by a melodious sound of the piano, they swung their long sleeves, and their flexible waists supported their upper bodies and slowly leaned back, just like petals slowly blooming.

Suddenly, Xue Chongxun's eyes lit up, and a woman like Chang'e appeared in the middle, with her white jade feet as white as frost, and her graceful body whirled and danced. The jade belt on her skirt also floated, as if she was walking in the waves, like a fairy in the Moon Palace.

She was as light as Yàn. Xue Chongxun didn't see clearly what her face looked like, but her posture and temperament were also extremely beautiful.

So he turned to look at his mother and said, "I understand, she is the best among these dancers. No wonder my mother asked me to take a look."

Princess Taiping smiled slightly: Do you think she is the best here?

Xue Chongxun nodded without hesitation.Princess Taiping said lightly: You heard that the process worker supports this person, right?

I have heard that it turned out to be a famous general... I was in trouble after pleading for someone, and it was killed by my grandmother, right?Their whole family seemed to be dead. My mother mentioned that he was a descendant of the Cheng family?

Princess Taiping said: Her name is Cheng Ting.

Oh... Xue Chongxun was stunned and realized again how cruel the power struggle is. If I am also unlucky in the future, then my woman would be demoted to a lowly person and be played with by others?

After having enough food and drinking, she also admired the singing and dancing. At this time, Princess Taiping stepped back and had no intention of leaving. Xue Chongxun also sat down, and her mother seemed to have something to say.

The servants all followed Princess Taiping's wishes, and the only one who was left in the prayer hall was left, which seemed empty.

Princess Taiping finally broke the silence and said: Chongxun, you have advised me many times. I thought about it over and over again and felt that what you said was not bad, but I did not agree. Do you know why?

This sentence immediately surprised Xue Chongxun and said hurriedly: Mother, as long as you can see hidden dangers and foresee the dangers in our family, it will be great... You didn't agree. I guess the coup was too difficult and the risk was too high, right?

Princess Taiping pondered for a long time, but didn't know what she was thinking. After a long time, she said: I often think of your grandmother... From ancient times to the present, she is the only female emperor. It was difficult to repeat in the past.Queen Wei and Princess Anle didn't see this clearly. They both wanted to learn, but they all died. I had realized this a long time ago, so we are still fine now.

Xue Chongxun anxiously persuaded: Mother thinks so, but others don’t think so!You are not trying to be the female emperor now, you have to try to protect yourself!After the Shenlong Coup and the Tanglong Coup, you are fine. That's because Emperor Zhongzong and the King of Heaven have no strength and courage, but Li Longji is different. He is not only young, but also courageous. What's more serious is that he is incompatible with your mother now. If Li Longji is the emperor, it would be impossible for his mother to maintain the status quo... If his mother did not realize this, she would not try every means to depose the prince, right?

Princess Taiping said: This is the meaning of my conversation with you tonight. I have to prepare for it. If the emperor cannot depose the prince, we must make plans early in case of an accident.But I am a woman, what reason should I use to coup?After thinking about it, this matter must be done with the Li family members... But now the Li family members hope that Li Longji ascends the throne and stabilizes the overall situation.There is only one person who can use it, Li Shouli!

Li Shouli?

Xue Chongxun almost never thought about this marginal figure, but his mother was indeed a master of her eyes. When he mentioned it, he suddenly realized: Who is Li Shouli? The son of Prince Zhanghuai, the grandson of Emperor Gaozong and Emperor Wu Zetian; as a result, Prince Zhanghuai is more qualified and popular than the current emperor Li Dan, but he is already dead...

However, Li Dan's son Li Longji can be the emperor, so why can't Prince Zhang Huai's son be the emperor?

Li Shouli and his father and brother were both killed by Wu Zetian. The younger brother heard that he died of illness, but he didn't know if he died of illness. He did not die because he was crazy and stupid. He was imprisoned for more than ten years. Then he was released during the Zhongzong period and soon went to the place and became a marginal figure, and no one mentioned it.

Because Xue Chongxun finally changed some of his mother's ideas, he is in a very good mood now and sees hope again.

He asked seriously: Where was Li Shouli arranged to?I never thought of this person, so I didn't pay attention.How are others? Can you agree to join us?

Princess Taiping said: I have been named King Bing, and now in Youzhou, I don’t know what kind of person he is. I haven’t had much contact with him and I haven’t heard of him.If you hadn't made me think about the coup during this period, I wouldn't have thought of him... I would have had a detailed discussion with you tonight, just to arrange something for you.

Please speak, mother.

Among the people around me who can trust, you should be the most suitable person to do this.You go to Youzhou to find out Li Shouli’s background, and convince him to return to Beijing to participate in the coup if necessary, and let him become the emperor after the matter is completed.Can it be done?

Xue Chongxun said: Mother, please rest assured, this matter concerns our whole family's lives, and I will do my best.But I had the title of Taichang Temple Minister on my head, and there was no reason to go out of Beijing and go to Youzhou Ah. I had to find a reason and not let people notice the purpose.

I've already thought about it for you.In the past two years, the capital was short of food, and last year it was even worse. The imperial guards were hungry. If the grain was not transported immediately and almost a mutiny would have changed, this was a very important thing.The court has been looking for ways to increase the transportation volume of canal transport. Last year, Liu An, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was transferred to the Ministry of Revenue to take charge of this matter, but it has achieved little effect until now.So I want to use this reason to make you serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, go down to inspect the canal, and assist Liu An in rectifying the canal... Of course, this kind of thing cannot be done in a short period of time, and you don’t have to worry too much. Just use the reason to investigate the Yongji Canal to go north to Youzhou along the canal, and try to contact Li Shouli.

Xue Chongxun thought about it and said: This method is very wonderful. I have made no achievements before, and no one pays much attention to me. It’s just right for me to do this.

Princess Taiping smiled on her face: You brothers, now you are the one who cares most about my heart.Chongxun, you don’t have to be sad every day, you have your mother here.

Mother... Xue Chongxun felt sad.

During this period, he was in fear and anxiety day and night, and there were very few times of joy...

Men will be helpless and sad, just hidden in their hearts.

At this time, a mother's words made him feel as if he had found a warm embrace, both bitter and warm.

Princess Taiping's expression became kind. At this time, she was more loving than the majestic princess who was tall and arrogant, and she looked more like a mother.

She looked at Xue Chongxun's face and smiled and said: OK, I see you are so big and you still have to cry.When you grow up, if you want to become a real man, you must learn to be at ease and not just keep everything on your face, and be in a mess all day long. Do you understand?

Yes, mother.Xue Chongxun answered with great respect.

Princess Taiping stood up, gently stroked her long sleeves, and said: It's getting late, you go back to your room to rest. The Cheng Ting you just liked just now has been sent to your room.

Xue Chongxun held a polite manner and said: I’ll give my mother respectfully.

Princess Taiping walked to the gate of the hall and recruited slaves. The eunuchs and palace maids gathered lanterns and surrounded her and left.

Another group of slaves and servants were at the door, serving Xue Chongxun.

Xue Chongxun waited for his mother to leave before he straightened his waist.

He found out that his chest no longer hurts and he didn't need to sit there anyway.

The night suddenly became beautiful, and the cool breeze blew on his face, and the lights in Princess Taiping's mansion were brilliant, and the lights and the stars in the sky were facing each other, making each other shine.

Xue Chongxun suddenly understood why Yu Wenji was willing to sacrifice everything for her father.
