Chapter 397 The Emperor Taishang Returns to the Dynasty 1 East Palace.
The news that Kong Sheng and Yu Chaoen turned their faces and became enemies was transmitted to the East Palace through Cheng Yuanzhen's mouth for the first time, and Li Yu heard the report, and laughed, and the laughter shook the hall for a long time.
Li Shi was a little confused.
Even if Kong Sheng and Yu Chaoen are confronted, even if Yu Chaoen is the first power supervisor of the dynasty, Kong Sheng is not easy to mess with, Kong Sheng holds the power of the forbidden army, and is in charge of the Shenlong Guard, although the rank is only the third grade, but the power is deep, the two fight, Kong Sheng may not be able to suffer.
Of course, the two of them are fighting against each other, which is still beneficial to the East Palace.
But the effect is not immediate, why is his father so excited Li Yu laughed for a long time, then turned his head to look at Li Shi with a smile, and said: "Shi'er, God really helps me, this eunuch fish Chaoen controls the inner servant, relying on the support of his father and the emperor to cover the sky in the inner palace with one hand, and sooner or later it will become a major disaster for the Tang Dynasty."
But this palace has the intention to get rid of him, but there is no way to start, I don't think, today there is Kong Sheng acting as a pawn for this palace, and this palace can not be happy" Li Shi was awe-inspiring.
Only then did he realize that Yu Chaoen was an existence that brought disaster to the country and the people in his father's mind, and he couldn't wait to eradicate it as soon as possible But Li Shi didn't think that Kong Sheng could easily take down Yu Chaoen.
Yu Chaoen is actually different from Li Fuguo, Yu Chaoen is not only an eunuch, but also served as a court supervisor, serving in Guo Ziyi's army, and his position in the emperor's mind has been very stable over the years.
Kong Sheng wants to move Yu Chaoen, but the emperor may not agree.
And Yu Chaoen not only holds power in the inner palace, but also has a lot of roots in the court, and has a wide range of contacts, Kong Sheng and him, who wins and who loses, it is not yet known.
"Shi'er, you should remember that a person like Kong Sheng will become a powerful minister at most, but he has both civil and military skills, and he is in the court, and the benefits to the Tang Dynasty will outweigh the disadvantages.
For us, Kong Sheng is an opponent now, but if in the future, Bengong ascends to the throne, as long as he is willing to submit to Bengong, Bengong will definitely reuse him. ” "But Yu Chaoen is a curse.
For the inner servant, we must not do without, but there must be a degree.
Internal servants interfering in politics is a major hidden danger of turmoil in the country, and it should not be underestimated. ” Li Yu's voice was condensed, and he said word by word.
Regarding the eunuch dictatorship, the current Li Yu has a deep fear and precautions.
But this is also related to his current identity, once he really steps on the throne of the emperor, his mentality will actually change quietly and invisibly.
In the eyes of the emperor, perhaps only the eunuchs who have been castrated are more trustworthy, of course, relative trust.
Li Shi bowed down: "My father is far-sighted, open-minded, and focuses on the society and the country, which is beyond the reach of his sons. ” "Yu Chaoen Wanwan is not Kong Sheng's opponent.
The palace has a hunch that it may not be long before Cheng Yuanzhen can turn over in the palace.
Li Yu was in a good mood, smiled and was about to say a few more words, but he heard the little eunuch hurriedly enter the palace and report: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the Emperor Taishang is still in court, and Luan has already arrived outside the Mingde Gate." ” Li Yu was shocked: "The Emperor Taishang actually arrived in the capital ahead of schedule, prepared the car, and the palace went out to greet him" Li Yu hurriedly walked out of the main hall and ran towards the palace gate, and the half-lieutenant of the crown prince of the East Palace had already waited.
But Li Yu walked for a while, but he slowly calmed down, he suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "What is the situation in the palace, Your Majesty has ever come out to greet you?"
The little eunuch bowed down and replied respectfully: "Your Highness, Your Majesty led the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to greet you outside the Vermilion Bird Gate of the Imperial City, and the Shence General Kong Sheng has led Luan to escort the Emperor Taishang into the city."
Li Yu pondered for a moment, waved his hand and said: "This palace is the eldest grandson of the Emperor Taishang, and he should be the filial piety of his father and the emperor, and he will quickly go to Zhuque Street to welcome the Emperor Luan back to the palace."
Emperor Taishang also went to Chang'an at least two or three days ahead of the scheduled time and the rhythm arranged by the imperial court Such news spread far and wide, and the people and businessmen all over the city rushed to tell each other.
This old emperor, who has been on the throne for decades, has a high reputation and extensive influence among the people.
When Emperor Li Longji was waiting to enter the city by Luan outside the Mingde Gate, the heavily guarded guards of the forbidden army on both sides of Suzaku Street were already crowded with people watching the excitement.
The scene was crowded with people, the sound was boiling, and almost the city was dispatched.
Kong Sheng led five hundred Shence army cavalry in clear armor and lined up outside the Mingde Gate, and Li Longji had been facing for a long time.
As soon as Kong Sheng left the palace, he received a military report and immediately sent someone to report to the emperor urgently.
Kong Sheng felt very strange and a little sudden.
When the emperor returned to the dynasty, he did not send someone to spread the word to Chang'an in advance.
A few days ago, it was reported that Li Longji was still slowly moving on the road.
Why did he appear in Chang'an so suddenly today, but Kong Sheng thought about it for a while, and he understood the general ins and outs.
Li Longji's current position is extremely embarrassing.
Although he is known as the Emperor Taishang, he is actually precarious, almost equivalent to a lost dog.
He only brought a thousand people into Shuzhong, and now he left Jiannan and returned to Chang'an, only a few hundred people remained.
Originally, the old emperor wanted to simply retire in Shuzhong, but the throne had been taken away by Li Heng anyway.
But how can the emperor rest assured that he will stay in Shuzhong, in case the old emperor starts a new stove in Shuzhong or pulls up a banner, it will be a fatal threat to the emperor's orthodox status.
Therefore, the old emperor was almost forced back by the emperor.
With the old emperor's original intention, he didn't want to be bumpy and tossed on the road for thousands of miles.
It's just that he also knows that if he doesn't return to the court, the emperor can't give an account to the subjects of the world if he doesn't feel at ease.
Li Longji was not only worried about being besieged by rebels on the road, but also worried that his son, the current emperor Li Heng, would secretly attack him, so he ordered the general Chen Xuanli and the chief of the inner chamberlain, Gao Lishi, to stop all the way, lock the news, and travel day and night until they entered the periphery of Chang'an.
The news that came out, including the report to Chang'an, may not be accurate, and it may also be that Chen Xuanli set up suspicions in accordance with the orders of the old emperor.
Seeing that Chang'an City was in sight, Li Longji felt that he was safe.

The emperor ordered Kong Sheng to lead the forbidden army to lead Luan out to greet him, while he led the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers to greet him outside the Suzaku Gate, looking very polite and maintaining basic respect for the emperor, but in fact it was a very interesting attitude.
When the father arrived, it was not too much for the son to greet him outside the city, but Li Heng only greeted him outside the imperial city and maintained the dignity of the emperor.
And who to send to greet it, it is necessary to send a Kong Sheng, who has nothing to do with the Emperor Taishang and does not know each other, to greet him, and he did not arrange for Yan Zhenqing and other old ministers to greet him, which in itself also explains a lot of problems.
Li Longji in front of Kong Sheng was dressed in a brocade robe, his temples were pale, and the color of aging was overflowing.
He was half-lying on the soft collapse of Luanjia, looking at Kong Sheng with a cloudy and pale gaze.
This is far from the image of the wise and martial arts or the suave Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty in Kong Sheng's "impression".
On both sides of Emperor Taishang's Luan, on the left was a middle-aged and elderly military general covered in armor and gray hair, this person was burly and solemn, holding a spear, sitting on a horse and silent.
Kong Sheng guessed that this person was Li Longji's confidant and general Chen Xuanli.
In the fourth year of Jinglong, Chen Xuanli was appointed as the general of the forbidden army Longwu with meritorious service to Empress Wei and Princess Anle.
After the change of Ma Wei, he escorted Xuanzong into Shu, and he has been guarding on the side so far, which can be described as loyal.
To the right of Emperor Luan was an elderly eunuch with a rickety, gray-haired, purple robe, with a round face and a wide forehead, eyes and a complicated smile.
This must be Li Longji's loyal chief eunuch Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi has been by Li Longji's side for decades, and he has won the trust of the people, and he has been tired of being a hussar general, and he has entered the Kaifu Yi and the three divisions.
This person has been loyal all his life, never abandons Li Longji, and is known as "the first person to be a virtuous eunuch through the ages", and he is also a great eunuch worthy of respect in Kong Sheng's mind.
Kong Sheng took a deep breath, withdrew his gaze from Gao Lishi, he strode forward, bowed down in front of Li Longji Luan, and said loudly: "Under the order of His Majesty, take Emperor Luan to welcome Emperor Taishang into the city and return to the court."
Behind Kong Sheng, hundreds of fierce forbidden army cavalry bowed down, and their movements were uniform.
Don't look at the actions of these many people, there are many swords and guns, but there is no trace of chaos, and it is silent, which shows the strict military discipline and the strict appearance of the army.
And this is a certain embodiment of combat effectiveness.
Chen Xuanli took a deep breath and was secretly frightened.
Li Longji waved his hand, his voice was not only a little tired but also faintly trembling: "Excuse me, what are you I have never seen you." ” "Minister Kong Sheng, the official worships Chang'an Hou, the general of the forbidden army, the governor of Shenlongwei and the young master of the prince."
Li Longji's originally cloudy eyes suddenly brightened, his body was shocked, he slowly sat up straight, and his voice became a little sharp: "You are the Jiangnan boy Kong Sheng, Kong Yingda's heir."
"The minister is Kong Sheng."
Kong Sheng bowed down, he knew why the emperor suddenly became excited, and even a little angry.
Kong Sheng's long-hated song made Kong Sheng famous all over the world, but for the old emperor Li Longji, this was a matter of revealing scars.
Moreover, this song made the old emperor miss his beloved concubine Yang Yuhuan from time to time, and he was a little embarrassed.
Even if Li Longji was in Shuzhong, he had heard of Kong Sheng's name.
It's just that compared with Kong Sheng's outstanding military exploits, what caught his attention was the long hatred song.
The general Chen Xuanli also stared at him, and became as sharp as a knife.
He stared at Kong Sheng and was about to have a seizure, but suddenly realized that this was not the time, the emperor had changed people, and the young official in front of him was clearly the emperor's favored minister, a new big man, and he was a general who followed the emperor down, how dare he say anything "I've heard your name" Li Longji suppressed his anger and said in a hoarse voice: "I" Kong Sheng chuckled lightly and interrupted the old emperor's words: "Please return the emperor to the court" "Please return the Emperor to the court" The sound of the forbidden soldiers shouting a tsunami in the mountains made the Emperor Li Longji have no time to continue to say and think, he could only passively be surrounded by Luan, with hundreds of his loyal guards and subordinate officials, and slowly entered the city.
Gao Lishi followed Luan on the horse, he reached out on the horse, held the old emperor's shivering and cold hand, and said in a low voice: "The current Chang'an City is cold, everyone must take care of the dragon's body."
The corners of the old emperor's mouth trembled, and finally let out an inaudible sigh, and slowly lay down again, closing his tired eyes.
After so much time and so many people and events, the relationship between the old emperor and Gao Lishi is no longer simply a master-servant relationship, but a community of destiny that shares weal and woe and is now sitting in the same boat.
Only Gao Lishi is qualified to remind the emperor of something, at the critical moment when the old emperor is about to deviate from course. oshow7 t1706231537:
