Chapter 668: Li Chongjiu's Worries

Li Chongjiu, who was proud, suddenly heard Yang Ze say this. For a moment, he did not react to the malice in the words. He just said ah, and he remembered Wu Youren!

But the reason why he valued Wu Youren was because he had no subordinates and had no confidants in the past, so he wanted to distrust Wu Youren, but now it's different. So many people are cursing him and so many people want to surrender to him, so why should he pay attention to Wu Youren alone? Besides, Wu Youren is no longer the Minister of Personnel, but just a minister, and he is still the kind of minister who specializes in farming."

Li Chongjiu looked at Yang Ze through the crowd around him and shouted: "If you don't have to worry, you'd better take care of yourself!"

Yang Ze ignored him and left straight, ignoring Li Chongjiu's clamor.

Li Chongjiu finished shouting at Yang Ze's back. When he looked at the ministers around him, he found that the expressions on many people's faces were a little wrong. Several ministers who were standing outside just now turned around and left. It seemed that they didn't want to curry favor with him anymore. Even if they were close to him, their attitude was obviously not as good as they were just intimate.

Li Chongjiu couldn't tell me, what's going on? Why did these ministers' expressions change so quickly!

There are some things that he should have thought of, but they didn't think of so quickly. What Yang Ze said just now was actually full of maliciousness to him, and it was a standard provocation and disagreement.

Li Chongjiu is now majestic, but his die-hard supporter Wu Youren is in great trouble. Li Chongjiu has never said a good thing for Wu Youren from beginning to end, and he is taking care of himself. Such a monarch will not be disappointed. Wu Youren looks like today, just like their future. Since Li Chongjiu is so ruthless and unintentional, why do they still have to surrender to him? It would be better to surrender to Yang Ze!

Li Chongjiu is not a person who values ​​friendship and friendship. Otherwise, he would not have set fire to his own farm and burned his family to death when he was running away. He only brought some bearded guards out of his favorites. In the end, Yang Ze was collectively cracked, leaving only Chi Juan, who is now Chi Juan has also been killed.

The ministers hadn't thought deeper, but they just felt that Li Chongjiu had gained power again, so they had to burn the stove, but as soon as they heard Yang Ze's words, they remembered these past events. Wu Youren's example was right in front of them, and they couldn't help but feel cold. Although everyone knew that Yang Ze was sowing discord, they were sowing very well and saying the truth. This made them think about it!

In the current situation, the ministers felt that the winner was not decided, and the prince's stove might not be able to burn. Even if it could be burned, it would be a bit of a loss to follow such a ruthless and unrighteous person, so the ministers said a few nice flattering words and then they all dispersed and returned to the yamen.

Seeing that these ministers were so snobbish at the beginning, Li Chongjiu became aloof again in a blink of an eye, he couldn't help but be furious. He thought to himself: "Wait, wait until Gu really ascends the throne, and see how Gu dealt with you."

There was no one around him. He remembered Wu Youren and hurried to the side hall to see if Wu Youren was awakened!

After entering the side hall, Li Chongjiu saw that the prestigious minister had woken up and was crying. However, such a person was not worthy of pity. Li Chongjiu thought that the minister wanted to stop him from leading his troops and deserved to be unlucky, so he didn't go to comfort him. He didn't even bother to take a look, so he arrived in front of Wu Youren.

Wu Youren was still not awake. An imperial doctor was holding mugwort. After igniting it, he smoked Wu Youren with cigarettes, and kept shaking Wu Youren's nose with cigarettes, trying to wake Wu Youren up.

Wu Youren has been so excited these days, and today he is angry outside the palace again. Of course, these are not the most critical. The most critical thing is that he was demoted without warning. As an official fan who is determined to be the number one minister in the world, how could he withstand this stimulation!

Originally, Wu Youren thought he could become a left-behind by Taiyuan, which was a good official position that was held with great military and political power. Although he was not as prominent as the Minister of Personnel, he had real power and could almost be called a prince. If he became a left-behind by Taiyuan, he could be said to have the capital to compete with Yang Ze.

But I never expected that not only did he not become a Taiyuan left behind, he was demoted to a Yuanwailang, but also a Zhongwailang who was a farmer. Although he went to Taiyuan as he wished, he lost all his power. He only farmed all day long, how many wastelands he had opened, how much fertilizer he used to farm? How could the world's number one minister in the future do such rough work? It would be closer to the land, which would mean the distance from the court!

Therefore, after Wu Youren suffered a huge blow this time, he did not wake up as soon as he rescued him, but became unconscious no matter how he rescued him, and he kept dizzy.

When several imperial doctors saw Li Chongjiu coming, they hurriedly saluted him. The imperial doctor who used mugwort to smoke Wu Youren said, "Your Highness, Mr. Wu has not woken up after fainting. If mugwort doesn't work anymore, he has to use acupuncture. But Weichen and others are not good at acupuncture, so they have to wait for a while before doctor Mu can let him use acupuncture."

The doctor Mu who he said was an imperial physician who was good at acupuncture, but Li Chongjiu didn't know him, had never heard of him, and was not interested in knowing him.

Bent down, Li Chongjiu looked at Wu Youren and said, "If you hit him a few times, will he wake up or pour cold water on his head?"

After hearing this, the imperial doctors did not dare to say anything. Wu Youren was demoted, but even if he was demoted, he would still be a minister. And they were all low-ranking imperial doctors. Facing Shangguan, they could not use cold water to beat Shangguan. This trick could only be used on people with lower positions than their positions, or ordinary people, or on Shangguan. That would be not good. Unless it was requested by Shangguan's family, they would not dare to use it without authorization.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Li Chongjiu said impatiently: "What do you think you are okay?"

An imperial physician hurriedly said, "There is no need to hit Lord Wu, but you can try the cold water. Try it with the well water you just dug up, and it will probably work."

Li Chongjiu immediately turned around and said to the little eunuch who was serving beside him: "Why are you still standing there? Go and dig wells quickly!"

The little eunuch quickly agreed and trotted out. In just a moment, he brought a bucket of well water in and said with a smile: "Your Highness, this is the newly dug well water. Can you see if it can be used? Is it cool enough?"

Li Chongjiu felt relieved. He didn't care why the Jingshui was so quickly, nor did he care if the Jingshui was really cold. What he cared about was that the little eunuch finally didn't dare to perfunctorily treat him. He asked these guys to work, so they worked and finally obedient.

Of course, he forgot that this place was not his Eastern Palace, and these little eunuchs were not sent by Liang Dazhong, who deliberately made things difficult for him. So it is not normal to be obedient, he is the prince after all!

Li Chongjiu pointed at Wu Youren and said, "Splashed on his face and let him wake up quickly!"

The little eunuch didn't say anything, and poured a whole bucket of water on Wu Youren's head with a loud bang!

After pouring such a large bucket of cold water on his head, Wu Youren must be awakened even if he is dizzy! After coughing twice, Wu Youren finally woke up!

As soon as he woke up, Wu Youren wanted to vomit and retching a few times. With the help of the imperial doctor, he could only sit up and see the prince Li Chongjiu in front of him.

Wu Youren said a few times, feeling only aches in his throat, but he still asked anxiously: "Grand, Your Highness, the prince. Has the emperor taken back his life?"

Li Chongjiu knew what he was asking, shook his head and said, "No. The father did not let you regain your post. It seems that the father is really angry. It's also your fault. It's not good to be late when it's not good, but today it's late, and Yang Ze took advantage of it!"

Not only did he not comfort him, he also blamed Wu Youren, who had no sympathy at all, and was a typical example of burning bridges across the river.

When Wu Youren heard that he was demoted, he couldn't help but feel sad from his heart. He wanted to cry a few times, but he felt embarrassed. He said, "It's all Yang Ze who harmed me!"

If he hadn't been fighting with Yang Ze outside and was angry with Yang Ze, he would have been too late, and it would have been even more impossible for Li Yan to be disgusted. Of course, he would have known that Li Yan had heard the queen's words and repaired him. He thought it was because of Yang Ze, so he automatically put the blame on Yang Ze's head.

Li Chongjiu said: "But there is good news to tell you." He regarded himself as a left-behind Taiyuan and also restrained the soldiers and horses north of Taiyuan.

Finally, he said proudly: "Yang Ze was sent to the border and pushed to the front line. Although he had 30,000 troops in his hand, the food and grass were transported from Gu. It was too easy for Gu to pinch his neck. If he dared to prick him again, Gu would starve him to death!"

Wu Youren thought to himself: "If this rough guy wants to starve Yang Ze to death, can you say this here? Don't worry about being spread. Don't forget that Yang Zeke worked in the Imperial Medical Office. Maybe one of these imperial doctors is his former friend."

Li Chongjiu was distracted and said, "Wu Yuanwailang, don't worry, you don't have to be nervous. Aren't you concerned about farming? You just say that the food is not harvested, and then you have an excuse to not give Yang Ze food. Once the army is short of food, those who are in the army will not mutiny. Maybe they will cut Yang Ze. This is very likely!"

Wu Youren wiped his face, stood up, and said, "Your Highness, this is not the place where you speak. Please be careful. If your words are spread, it will be bad if Yang Ze hears them."

The imperial physicians all curled their lips, thinking in their hearts: "Do you think we are willing to listen here? If you hadn't been awake, we would have left long ago, and you would have doubted us now!"

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "So what if it is rumored? If Gu said these words, Yang Ze would not have thought that Gu could give him food safely? Wu Yuanwailang, Gu is so dizzy when he sees you!"

Wu Youren laughed dryly and said, "Then, then let's go back to the East Palace to discuss?"

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "It's better to be careful. Alas, I just don't know where Du Da's chin and the others are, otherwise I'll feel more at ease if I call them into the palace."

They returned to the East Palace one after another. Li Chongjiu was still excited until he entered the hall. After sending out the little eunuch and the palace maid, he said to Wu Youren: "Wu Yuanwailang, I went to Taiyuan this time, but the sea is wide and the fish is leaping, and the sky is high and the birds are flying."

Seeing that Wu Youren was not interested, he hurriedly said, "Wu Yuanwailang..." Suddenly he yelled, feeling that he was too ignorant of speaking. Wu Shangshu became Wu Yuanwailang. It was right that he called, but Wu Youren must not like to listen.

Then he changed his words, Li Chongjiu thought he had to win over Wu Youren. After all, even if Wu Youren lost his power now, he could still give advice for himself. He said, "Gu is not able to speak anymore. In the future, he will no longer call you your official title, but call you Brother Wu. You and I are friends who share weal and woe. Gu really treats you as a friend. You are older than Gu, so you and I will be called brothers in the future!"

Wu Youren was in a better mood at this time. He hurriedly said, "I dare not, I dare not, there is a difference between high and low, how dare I behave with His Highness and His Highness brothers?"

Li Chongjiu immediately began to win the hearts of the people, took Wu Youren's hand and said, "Brother Wu has helped Gu very much. Gu calls you Brother Wu, what's wrong!"

Then, he said, "Brother Wu, this time Gu and you are going to Taiyuan. Think about it, how should you go? There must be people who protect Gu around you, but Du Dazhao and others are still not sure where they are!"

Wu Youren thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, I think it should be the Crown Prince's first. After all, you are not leading troops to set off, so you can go to Taiyuan first. As long as you arrive at Taiyuan, the vassal kings of Taiyuan will protect you. There is no need to worry about this. No matter how brave Yang Ze is, he will not dare to attack Taiyuan."

Li Chongjiu nodded repeatedly. Taiyuan is the most powerful place in the Li royal family, and the people of the Li royal family would not help Yang Ze, so it is certain to protect themselves, but the key is whether it will be safe on their way to Taiyuan. If Yang Ze sends people to intercept and kill them on this road, wouldn't that be bad?

Li Chongjiu expressed his worries. After hearing this, Wu Youren thought for a long time and said, "This minister can't understand why the emperor and the queen don't have this concern. Do they think Yang Ze won't attack the harm?"

Li Chongjiu started to circle around the ground. After a long time, he said, "If we go out to Taiyuan as we thought before, and Yang Ze is still in Beijing, how did you consider security issues along the way? This is actually similar to now. The difference is that Yang Ze is going to the border."

Wu Youren said: "This is simple. When Your Highness goes to Taiyuan, there will naturally be a ceremonial guard. Moreover, Taiyuan will also send people to pick him up. In fact, the one who protects Your Highness to Taiyuan is the soldiers and generals of the Taiyuan vassal king. So there is no need to worry about safety issues. But now isn't you going to go to war? It seems too late to go to the time. Taiyuan is afraid there is no time to send guards, right?"

Li Chongjiu laughed and said, "This is simple. Gu can just drag him on for a while and let someone from Taiyuan send him. Isn't Gu just going to ask his mother to do it?"

Wu Youren smiled and said, "That's all. As long as time goes by, there is no need to worry about Yang Ze taking the slaughter."

After they said a few more words, Wu Youren said goodbye. He is just a servant now, so he can no longer follow Li Chongjiu to meet the emperor and the queen alone.
