At dawn, the ministers Bi Ji, in front of Xuanwu Gate to the north of Da Nei, went straight to Shenduyuan from the Shengjia.

Li Tong was both a prince and a general of the Southern Yaya, and naturally ranked first and rode his horse to the side of the sage. Opposite him, Wu Chengsi, the King of Wei, also rode his horse slowly. Although his position was extremely conspicuous, Wu Chengsi's face was still so gloomy that it almost blended with the night sky hidden by the stars.

However, Wu Chengsi's face was so ugly at this time, it was not because he was walking side by side with Li Tong, but because of the small chariot that followed the saint, and the emperor's successor Li Dan also had a ceremony today.

Although this is not a good phenomenon for Li Tong, when he saw Wu Chengsi's face looked even more ugly, he also smiled secretly. You old boy glared at me again, are you stunned now?

The joys and sorrows came too suddenly. At the beginning of the first month of the year, Wu Chengsi was still happy to be a ceremony as an Asian devotion. As for now, there is a sudden feeling of a tide receding, and no matter how hard it is, it is still a relationship between the mother and the mother. You, Wu Chengsi, can only follow the side like your grandson.

Of course, Li Tong, who has seen too many of his grandmother's slutty operations, doesn't think there is any clear direction. At this point, no matter what political expression of his grandmother's intention is, he only has one purpose, that is, to confuse the public and ensure the stability of his own power.

Whether it is the imperial heir Li Dan, the king of Wei Wu Chengsi, and of course, Li Tong now, they are all a card in Wu Zetian's hand. When to play which card is just a situation at that time, it does not represent the final result.

In fact, most people with a little political wisdom can see this clearly. However, because each person has different interests in the current situation, he will inevitably be affected by minor or serious influence.

Especially people like Wu Chengsi are not smart enough and are more likely to be addicted to superficial stimulation. Li Tong seriously suspects that Wu Chengsi should have a cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease in the future, and his daily ups and downs, and he is worried about gains and losses. He really can't stand this stimulation.

Thinking of this, the Holy Lord entered the Dragon Scale Palace. There was still some time before dawn. In addition to the imperial guards who were on duty, the officials with the lords could take a break and take a look at the families who had entered Shenduyuan in advance, and wait until dawn before returning to the Dragon Scale Palace to attend the ceremony.

As a general of the Southern Yai, Li Tong did not have such convenience. He sat in the side hall with the generals, waiting for the summons.

In today's imperial guard system, the left and right Yulin army in the North Ya was divided into camps and a thousand cavalry. The left Yulin general Tuo Chongyu and the right Yulin general Wu Youning can be said to be the most powerful general. Among the South Ya, the left and right guards are headed by the left guards, Xue Huaiyi and Xue Mochuo.

These four guards can be said to be the four heavenly kings among the generals of the Imperial Guard, and directly controls more than half of the Imperial Guards in the Shendu City.

Although other generals of the Southern Yaya sounded majestic, they actually had their own waters, including the left and right Jinwu Guards. Although the street disciples under the Jinwu Guard were numerous, they were basically mobs, and it was okay to intimidate civilians, but they could not count on real battles.

The imperial guard system has its meticulousness of interlocking and checks and balances, but in fact there are also great crises. As long as these four guards can be handled, even just a part of them, the seemingly strict palace defense will become full of loopholes.

Li Tong sat in the hall, his eyes judging these people at will, and there were many tricks flashing through his mind. If he wanted to cause trouble in the forbidden area, he could not avoid these four people, especially the left and right Yulin Army.

The Yulin Army of Beiya was expanded on the basis of left and right camps during the reign of Emperor Gaozong. One of the most important features is that the soldiers are the soldiers. Unlike the soldiers of the South Yafu, they are professional soldiers, so they are very guaranteed in terms of combat effectiveness.

In addition, the Yulin Army has another characteristic, that is, there are a large number of foreign soldiers.

This is also easy to understand. Emperor Gaozong's efforts to explore the outside world were so strong that he ranked among the top in the entire feudal period. In addition to consuming human lives, war also consumed money and food.

In the entire early Tang Dynasty, until the prosperous Kaiyuan period, the financial situation was actually sloppy.

Emperor Gaozong not only wanted to maintain rapid external expansion, but also built Dongdu to get rid of the restrictions of the Guanlong Group. Under such circumstances, there was no abundant money or grain to expand the almost completely full-time professional army of the Yulin Army.

One of the key factors that the Yulin Army was able to be established was that it directly introduced a large number of elite foreign soldiers based on the benefits of the war to enhance the central government's military strength.

It is precisely because of this that in the early Tang Dynasty, many foreign generals would serve as generals of the Yulin Guard, such as the former Hei-Take Changzhi, Quan Xiancheng, the current Tuo Chongyu and Li Duozuo who were later. In addition to the lack of roots in the political situation, it is also because the foreign generals have certain feasibility to take charge of foreign soldiers.

Li Tong wanted to continue to expand his influence in the imperial guards. Although it was direct and effective to insert people at the critical position, it was too conspicuous and needed to be cautious. In addition, there was another way to expand his influence in the group of foreign soldiers and generals.

This matter actually has a foundation. Don’t forget that he also has a group of friends from Goguryeo’s survivors. The situation is getting worse and there is no way to guess what kind of tricks his grandmother will do next, so he is deeply thinking about every bit of the power he can control the influence at the moment.

At the moment, he was wondering if he could directly interfere in the military affairs of the Beiya. If possible, he might be able to use his Goguryeo friends as a breakthrough to quickly build a group of forces close to him in the Beiya, and no longer just a thousand-caval commander Guo Da, whose thoughts are greater than reality.

Just as he was thinking this, suddenly a figure in front of him shook. He looked up and saw that it was Xue Huaiyi who came to him and raised his hand to signal him to go to the remote place in the hall.

Li Tong followed Xue Huaiyi and said with a smile: "What do you think of Master Xue?"

When he arrived in the corner, Xue Huaiyi's face pulled back and looked back at Li Tong, and said in a bad tone: "White Tuaner is in the royal residence now. I think it's the face of the King Dai, and I won't care about the past, but please tell her that if I make a story again, I'm not polite to her!"

Li Tong was stunned at first after hearing this, and after a moment, his face also darkened: "Can Master Xue make it clear? Xiao Wang may not be talented, but if everyone uses the sect, he will be confident that he can take responsibility!"

"The King of Dai does not have to treat me in this way. I have no evil thoughts to you. I also know that slut, hey, in short, I have already told you about the matter. Someone doesn't want to see me well. If you just keep it, you can only take care of each person!"

After Xue Huaiyi said this, he stopped stopping and turned around and left.

Of course, Li Tong was also a little unhappy when Xue Huaiyi held accountable without any brainstorm. He was also not in the mood to stay in the hall to plot against the military affairs of the North Ya. He walked out of the hall and stood in the corridor and looked at Xue Huaiyi's back as he walked towards the inner hall, frowned slightly.

At this moment, Wu Chengsi's figure flashed out from the other hall, looking at Li Tong, smiling gloomy.

Li Tong was so angry that he felt even more unhappy when he saw Wu Chengsi's slutty look. He tidied up his crotch, held the hilt of the Yidao knife in his hand, and went straight towards Wu Chengsi.

Seeing that the young king had a bad expression approaching, Wu Chengsi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously took a few steps back, waved to two stewards from behind, and then he became a little stable, looking at Li Tong's head and said, "What are you going to do?"

"Huaiyi makes things difficult for him, did the King of Wei say? Since the beginning of the incident, I have never violated the King of Wei and I will not fight for the ranks and branches. If you lead the incident into my inner house, I will never let you go!"

Li Tong knocked on the hilt of Yidao with his hand and said coldly at Wu Chengsi.

When Wu Chengsi heard this, he suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief, raised his hand to point at Li Tong and said angrily: "Shu Zi'er dares to talk to me like this! Do you dare to threaten me?"

"There is no way to good fortune, but only people call it to themselves! If the King of Wei thinks that my courage is only in words, then you can try it!"

Li Tong sneered, summoned a commander of the imperial guards who were parading in front of the hall, and asked, "Is General Yuan of the Right Jinwu Guard in a straight line? Come and see him!"

As he said that, he looked back at Wu Chengsi without hiding the cruelty between his eyebrows and eyes.

Although he still didn't know the exact reason for Xue Huaiyi's words, he could probably guess something. It was nothing more than Wei Tuaner introducing his grandmother to her new boyfriend and let Xue Huaiyi know. Now that Wei Tuaner has left the ban, he came to beat him up.

He hadn't figured out how to treat Xue Huaiyi yet, but Wu Chengsi, the old bastard, was unhappy with his attitude of watching the fun. Of course, he couldn't make Wu Chengsi feel comfortable and add some confusion to this guy.

If it wasn't so direct before, but now, his grandmother and his fourth uncle are ignorant of resolving past grudges, what are you afraid of? Even if Wu Chengsi is not smart, he will not regard Li Tong as his first target.

Wu Chengsi was naturally not in a good mood at this moment, especially after seeing the King Dai threatening him, he turned around and the General Yuan Lin of the Right Jinwu Guard, and hurried in to see him, his face became even more gloomy.

After retreating to the side hall, he called Wu Yizong, who was once the general of the Right Jinwu Guard, and asked, "What is the relationship between the Right Jinwu Guard Yuanlin and the King of Dai?"

Emperor Wu Yizong lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I really don't know. Your Highness sees him colluding with each other?"

"I still need to see you? The King of Dai said the threat just now and turned to summon Yuan Lin. Is there any collusion between the two of them? "

Wu Chengsi said angrily: "No wonder, this kid is fearless and dares to make extravagant things in the mansion! What is Yuan Lin? Think carefully about it, I want to remove the arm of the straight man!"

"The King of Dai threatened? How dare he do this?"

Wu Yizong was also a little confused at this moment.

"Huaiyi has held him accountable. Humph, this kid is just a lucky man, and he doesn't know what kind of disaster he has taken. For the sake of a mere maid, he doesn't even take Huaiyi seriously!"

Wu Chengsi said again: "Continue to dig deeper, who will be attracted by that slut and Taiping to enter the palace, take the real traces, and then tell Huaiyi."

"But, but is this the Holy Emperor... I am worried that if you dig deeper, you may anger Your Majesty."

Wu Yizong couldn't help but say.

"This matter is really a concern. Yes, don't you say that the national officials have reported to Hanoi that there are strangers in the country? They attract the capital of God and help Huaiyi to be favored."
