"Master Yu, isn't the action this time too big? I think the atmosphere of the court meeting has changed a little."

In the Eastern Palace, Li Zhi couldn't wait to find Yu Zhining to discuss the matter as soon as he went back.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the current situation is actually a great thing for us.

The more strange the atmosphere in the court is, the more it means that our actions have achieved the ideal effect.

The Lord of Yongping is safe and sound, and you don’t have to feel guilty. The Changsun Party and the Chu King Party are now at a strife, which is a great thing for us.

The position in the court is only a little bit, and now it has been divided up. Even if you want to win over those aristocratic families, you have to let others see some benefits.

Otherwise, relying solely on the fantasy of the future, some people are cunning and unwilling to place bets easily."

Yu Zhining was very relaxed.

At the beginning, he was still worried that something would go wrong with the person he arranged, so it would be troublesome.

Two days have passed, but there is no news of the assassin being caught in Chang'an City, which means they have really gone far away.

Two days were enough for them to leave Guannei Road and go to various parts of the Tang Dynasty.

No matter how powerful the Chu Prince's Mansion is, it is not so easy to find these people if they want to hide.

Not to mention that the people in the Chu Prince's Mansion are now staring at the Changsun Party, and Changsun Wuji is also looking for opportunities to deal with Li Kuan. How could so many people have the intention to investigate the whereabouts of the assassin?

"It makes sense for you to say that, but I'm a little uncomfortable with the current depressing atmosphere in the court.

During this period, I think I will stop temporarily so as not to reveal any flaws.”

Although Li Zhi is a little inflated now, he is also very clear about how big the gap between him and the Chu Prince's Mansion and the Changsun Party is.

To be honest, Li Zhi’s only advantage now is that he occupies the orthodox position of the East Palace.

Even if Li Shimin intends to establish a new crown prince, it is a very stressful thing.

What's more, Li Shimin has not shown any obvious bias so far.

Many important officials in the court have not started betting yet.

"Well, this is natural. I guess all forces should have some actions now. Then we can just watch the fun."

Yu Zhining felt unprecedented comfort.

Over the years, the Yu family has been on a downward trend.

Now he finally saw hope for an upward trend, and his mood was naturally very beautiful.

...

In the Fang Mansion, Fang Xuanling called Fang Yiai and Fang Yi straight to his study.

Over the years, Fang Xuanling has also clearly felt that his body was getting worse, and he probably had a lifespan of few years.

However, the descendants of the Fang family have not shown any extraordinary talent so far.

Whether it is Fang Yizhi or Fang Yiai, they are not a person who can show off.

Although Fang Xuanling was determined to seek development for the Tang Dynasty, as the patriarch of the Fang family, he naturally had to consider the future of the family.

"Yizhi, I heard that you have been closer to the Changsun family during this period?"

As soon as Fang Xuanling said this, Fang Yizhi became nervous.

"Aye, I just had dinner with their people a few times recently, and it's not that close or far away.

Compared to my second brother running to the Chu Prince's Mansion every few days, I shouldn't this be anything, right?"

Although Fang Yizhi is not a smart person, Fang Xuanling called everyone together so seriously today, and then he said that this thing must be that simple behind it.

Based on the situation in Chang'an City recently, Fang Yi felt that he might have eaten these meals a bit hasty.

I thought it was really just a meal, but in the eyes of those who are interested, there may be a different interpretation.

"Brother, what is my relationship with His Highness the King of Chu? Can this be compared with you?

Besides, it’s not the recent thing that I ran to the Chu Prince’s Mansion, it was like this more than ten years ago.”

Fang Yiai muttered a little dissatisfied.

"Although the Changsun family is the most influential family in the court, the Empress has passed away for many years. Your Majesty now has some ideas about Changsun Wuji's proposition back then.

So you should keep a distance from the Changsun Party in the future.”

Fang Xuanling is a typical imperial party.

As long as Li Shimin is still in his position, he will definitely only listen to Li Shimin.

But this does not mean that everyone in the Fang family has no tendency.

"Aye, in my opinion, our Fang family should stand clearly on His Highness the King of Chu.

The Tang Dynasty has undergone such great changes in recent years. What is the matter that has nothing to do with His Highness the King of Chu?

Whether it is the wide cement road, the railway that everyone dared not think of before, or the bicycles and four-wheeled carriages everywhere on the street, as well as cotton, potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes grown by farmers, these are all the credits of His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

Without His Highness the King of Chu, there would be no current prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, your Majesty is very important to listen to His Highness’s opinions and tolerate His Highness’s various troubles.

It is precisely because of this that I feel that the Fang family should stand on the side of His Highness the King of Chu.

In fact, everyone is already very clear about the situation in Chang'an City. It is nothing more than His Highness, the King of Chu and His Highness, fighting for the position of crown prince.

The Changsun Party is now cooperating with His Highness the Crown Prince and wants to deal with His Highness the King of Chu together.

But I think the Tang Dynasty can be without His Royal Highness the Prince and Changsun Wuji, but it must be without His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

Otherwise, the development of the Tang Dynasty would definitely enter a bottleneck and would never be able to recover to the development path of the past decade."

Fang Yiai was completely collected and paid by Li Kuan more than ten years ago.

In recent years, although Fang Yiai has not been running to Li Kuan as frequently, the relationship between the two parties has not changed.

Overall, although the Fang family has not taken sides in recent years, they are often still helping the Chu Prince's Mansion.

Even Fang Xuanling himself talked for Li Kuan from time to time in the court.

Many people actually know this.

"Second brother, the matters involving the crown prince's struggle in all dynasties are not that simple. Until the last moment, no one knows who the winner is.

If our Fang family goes all out, if this side is successful, it would be easy to say.

If it fails, you will immediately fall into a state of endless doom.

With our Fang family’s status in the Tang Dynasty, there is no need to take such dangers.”

Fang Yizhi's view basically represents the views of many noble families.

Everyone is no longer barefoot. Even if they take the right side, the benefits they can get are relatively limited.

But if it is wrong, the cost will be very high.

Therefore, the more top-notch families and nobles are, the less they will not easily take sides.

Although Yu Zhining seems to have won over a group of aristocratic families now, in fact, they may not be willing to do their best to help.

"What you both said is reasonable. For the father, you must think about this matter carefully. But during this period, you should be careful not to get involved in any of the century-old things."

Fang Xuanling was also unresolved for a moment. After admonishing him, he was ready to continue to see the situation.
