The news that the Fourth Prince committed suicide in the cell at night had not yet come from Chang'an, but those capable powerful people naturally knew it long ago.
Those officials in Chang'an who are capable of knowing these news early also had the same thoughts as Han Yixuan.
This traditional Li's program has begun again.
At the forefront of this storm, any prince's actions are of course closely watched.
Among all the princes, the third prince and the prince are the most worthy of attention.
If anyone has the most hope of inheriting the dragon throne, at least nine out of the ten people would think that it was either the prince or the third prince.
Many people even privately think that the third prince’s chances are probably a little higher.
Who knows if the prince will make any tricks as he goes through the years?
As long as an ordinary prince does not rebel, the emperor may be able to tolerate any mistakes, but if the prince makes any major mistakes, the emperor may start to think about when to change the prince.
Those who are on the cusp of the waves will suffer any losses.
The third prince entered Shishan Academy to visit Shangguan Zhaoyi and was soon discovered by many interested people.
A group of gorgeous ladies are visiting the Pei family.
Jin Yanhua still wanted to put all the jewelry on her body.
She was so proud that she almost wrote the big words "The Third Prince is my son-in-law" on her face.
Those who can be invited to attend such a banquet are naturally nobles who have status no lower than her, or who have a place where the Pei family relies on others.
These ladies have many contacts with her on weekdays, so their relationship is naturally good on the surface, but the competition between the powerful and the powerful is naturally inevitable.
This naked show reached its peak when Jin Yanhua praised the third prince for his knowledge of respecting his elders and even personally sent her to the palace gate, but it also aroused dissatisfaction among the ladies.
A wife from Yuan's family in Chen County showed a playful smile.
Someone told her before that Jin Yanhua arrived outside the palace and the carriage was waiting for her and she refused to get on the carriage. She forced the carriage to follow her for almost two miles. Only then did she realize that many people must have seen it, so she got on the carriage arrogantly.
Among these people, I'm afraid that only the old ladies from the countryside can do such things.
Her playful smile fell into the eyes of a beautiful woman in a lilac dress beside her.
This beautiful woman is from the Zheng family of Xingyang. When she saw Jin Yanhua's appearance of a sparrow flying up to the branches and turning into a phoenix today, she felt a little sad. Looking at the smile of the wife of Yuan, she smiled slightly and said softly in the ear of Mrs. Yuan, "Yanhua is so lucky, but why do I feel that there may be some hidden feelings in it?"
Mrs. Yuan whispered to her, "What news did you hear again?"
"It's not accurate, but there is such a statement." The wife of the Zheng family said softly: "It is said that the emperor does not like the green eyes very much. Pei Yunqi, the second lady of the Pei family, seems to have a very subtle relationship with the green eyes. He has promised the marriage between the third prince and the Pei family. In the future, Pei family will naturally become a family that is forbidden to marry a foreign surname. Then Miss Pei may find it difficult to marry this unknown Hu person in the future."
The wife of the Yuan family was slightly stunned.
After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, although Emperor Taizong had not issued an edict, he had an oral order to prohibit several aristocratic families, including the Li family in Longxi, from intermarrying with foreign surnames. At present, the emperor would definitely not be able to overturn Taizong's oral orders. However, Pei family was not originally among the banned marriages. Now the emperor has approved the marriage between the third prince and Pei family, so there is only one possibility. According to the rules, Pei family was also included in the ranks of banned marriages.
In the future, the Pei family, Longxi Li family, Zhaojun Li family, Taiyuan Wang family and other families who are in the ranks of prohibited marriage can be intermarried.
The Zheng family in Xingyang is also among the banned marriages stipulated by Emperor Taizong's oral edict, so the wife of the Zheng family is more sensitive to such matters. It is estimated that the husband in the family has already told her about this.
"For Pei Yunli and Green Eyes?"
The Yuan family of Chen County was also the top family of the Tang Dynasty. The wife of Yuan was originally very smart. She frowned slightly and thought deeper. According to the emperor's temperament and means, such things would definitely be like a stone of birds.
Pulling Pei into the ranks of banned marriages will naturally greatly enhance the status of Pei. In the future, the Pei family's children will become stronger and stronger with those families whose original status is even higher than Pei's.
But this should also be the emperor's gentle way to appease Pei's family.
The emperor had severely suppressed the Pei family before, and the military power of the border troops was recaptured from the Pei family. During this period, the Pei family still showed loyalty to the emperor, so the emperor naturally could not push the Pei family to the Changsun clan and wanted to win over it.
Furthermore, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the banned marriage family has never joined the new member. Now that such a gap has been opened, does this mean that the emperor will try to arrange more banned families into the sequence of banned marriage family in the future?
This also seems to reflect the emperor's determination to change the status quo.
Moreover, letting the daughter of Pei marry the third prince is equivalent to giving the third prince some military power. Is this intentional pressure on the prince?
As for targeting Green Mou and Pei Yunli, this is probably the smallest calculation and just a private rebuff.
Jin Yanhua only cared about her own performance and was not careful in observing her expressions. However, at this time, the wife of the Yuan family frowned and thoughtful, finally fell into her sight.
"Miss Lingyu, what are you worried about?"
The wife of the Yuan family, whose original name was Zhou Lingyu, called out and said with a smile: "If you have any troubles, you might as well tell everyone. If we can't solve it, I can find His Highness the Third Prince. He is very capable and should be able to help solve it."
This silence of expression immediately made several ladies unable to bear it.
Zhou Lingyu was not a good person at first. She smiled slightly when she heard this and said, "I don't have any worries. I just thought that my little woman is more evil and it's hard to find a good family in the family. But Yanhua, I want to remind you that the third prince is too outstanding and has many people covet it. You have to think of some ways to hold him firmly in your hands. When I came, I heard that the third prince was very fond of calligraphy and painting recently. Today, they took the paintings to Shishan Academy to meet Shangguan Zhaoyi and talked about calligraphy and painting with her."
"What?!"
Jin Yanhua's face changed drastically and she was a little out of control for a while.
Of course, she also knew about Shangguan Zhaoyi's reputation.
Jin Yanhua had never practiced the method of scaling his bones, but when the banquet ended and after seeing off these noble ladies, her face suddenly lengthened.
She arrived at Pei Yunhua's boudoir as fast as possible.
Pei Yunhua was trying some bright wedding dresses, and five maids were serving them.
"What to try? Maybe you or someone else is wearing it."
Jin Yanhua, who had a long face, sneered.
Pei Yunhua and Pei Yunqiu don’t look similar at all.
She looks like a gentle and quiet lady with a good facial features and a very bookish spirit.
He doesn't have a similar temperament at all.
She was very gentle. When she saw her mother angry, she just asked seriously: "Mother, what happened? You are so angry."
Jin Yanhua waved his hand and asked the five maids to retreat, then said coldly: "The third prince went to Shishan Academy to meet Shangguan Zhaoyi today. I'm afraid they are not clear."
"How can the Third Prince not be able to do anything? Mother doesn't have to be sad about this." Pei Yunhua said calmly: "Don't deal with Shangguan Zhaoyi, so as not to cause his displeasure."
"Shangguan Zhaoyi is not as good as an ordinary woman. If she secretly sends out a secret love to the third prince, the third prince may not be moved. If you suffer from your suffering, Jin Yanhua snorted heavily, "What's more, if the third prince interacts closely with her next time, I will probably be ridiculed in front of Zhou Lingyu and the others."
Pei Yunhua smiled faintly, "Since that's the case, I'll vent my anger for my mother... It's not convenient for us to come forward, so I'll arrange for someone else to come forward."
Jin Yanhua was a little satisfied at this time, but she couldn't help but stretch out a finger to light her forehead and said in a deep voice: "You spend more time on the third prince, don't give others the opportunity to take advantage of!"
Pei Yunqi said softly: "I understand."
After Jin Yanhua left Pei Yunhua's boudoir, she still felt that a breath of anger in her chest was hard to relieve. Shangguan Zhaoyi could not breathe for the time being. After thinking about it, she sneered and felt that she wanted to touch Pei Yun's head.
...
Whether it was the Tang Dynasty or the Sui Dynasty before, there were often such heroes who were respectful to their own troops in Youzhou.
Emperors who neglected control of Youzhou often suffered from bad consequences.
So the change of such places will be very fast.
Ouyang Zhucheng was slightly disagreeable with the emperor's political views, so he was quickly dealt with, and there were also many historical reasons.
If he changed to work in a different place, his fate with Shanyin Guard would probably not be so sad.
However, the Hua family has been sitting very steadily in Youzhou over the years.
Even if there was a case of Xuanjia stolen and Xuanjia battle, the emperor did not even show the intention of punishing the Hua family.
However, many officials took the initiative to write letters to complain to the Hua family. It is not easy for the Hua family to do it. With a limited military force, it is no longer easy to maintain the stability of the situation, not to mention that there are deliberately cultivating practitioners to make trouble!
However, at the root of this, the emperor and the officials in Chang'an appreciate Hua Huaixian and his son Hua Cangming.
These two people were carved from the same mold.
He is old-fashioned, but conscientious and loyal to the Tang Dynasty.
The matters assigned by Shangguan were done very seriously, no matter big or small.
Everyone in the officialdom pays attention to face.
The official rank of the Jiedu governor Hua Huaixian is not low.
Many Chang'an officials ordered other state affairs, and those military governors might not be able to sell face. Even if they agreed and spoke beautifully, they would be very perfunctory when doing things.
But Hua Huaixian and Hua Cangming are different.
Even though some things were not done 100%, these officials knew the process and knew that Hua Huaixian and Hua Cangming had already put in it 100% strength.
What else can I say about this?
However, doing things too seriously can sometimes cause headaches.
Today, when he heard the secret report from the city gate guard, he suddenly had a headache.
After the Xuanjia Battle happened a few days ago, Hua Linyi rushed over and told him not to care about it. Then Jitai Pavilion quickly colluded with him to submit the document, but at the same time, Hua Linyi also casually mentioned that if there were people entering Youzhou City, there were people with very little luggage and even no money bags, they must pay attention to it and quickly send a message to Gu Ningxi.
If it were someone else, although such things might be explained, I wouldn't care too much about how serious the execution is.
But Hua Cangming’s habit is that he or she either does not do it, but he or she must be serious.
So he not only repeatedly explained to the city gate guards, but also often went to several city gates to check the implementation status in the past few days.
The result of this is that these generals of the city gate guards naturally dare not be careless at all.
Before, the Xuan Armor was stolen, and the city gate guards were guarding the battle, but the Xuan Armor appeared outside easily. The generals of these city gate guards only felt that if they did not perform well, they would probably be cleaned from top to bottom for a round.
So I really found such a person today.
The city gate guard naturally knew the pros and cons, pretending that there was nothing abnormal, he put the person into the city, but at the same time, he secretly sent someone to inform Hua Cangming as quickly as possible.
Hua Cangming naturally informed Gu Ningxi as quickly as possible, but when he thought about the possibility of another terrifying incident, he had a very headache.
"Is such a person really here?"
Gu Liubai was also surprised.
In a few days, once the knife is refined, it will leave Youzhou and go to Chang'an. Unexpectedly, it will be gone, and suddenly another person comes.
The city gatekeeper remembered the man's pass certificate.
This person's surname is Huang, his name is Zhong, and he is from Nanling.
This man was wearing casual clothes, but he also had a Taoist book, a small Taoist temple called Nanjiguan hanging in Nanling.
Soon, Chen Tu appeared in front of Gu Liubai.
He brought the exact news, "This person should have some problems. He lived in Guiyi Temple this time. Although Guiyi Temple is an inconspicuous Taoist temple in Youzhou City, it is also the property of the Jin family. According to this, if this person has expenses, he will also get money from this Taoist temple."
The monk of the Fallen Temple who assassinated Qi Yu before also took money from the Jin family's Taoist temple. However, when the man entered the city to check, he did not attract the attention of the city guards, so no one remembered the origin of his pass certificate. After that, he did not leave any clues. Now, even Mrs. Zou was secretly working, but no more clues were found for him.
The Huang Zhong’s pass certificate contains inspection marks of the checkpoints along the way, and the physical characteristics recorded on it are also comparable to him. From this point of view, someone can be sent to check Na Nanji Temple.
Although it is a little far away, at least money can make the devil push the mill.
As for Huang Zhong, who has reached Guiyiguan, Gu Liubai will naturally not waste time waiting for him to do something first.
The degenerate and depraved Guanyin Daozi will meet this person immediately.
