Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 1125 Disposal

In the Cuiwei Hall, Li Yuan sat at the head with a blank face, his eyes flickering. Although three consecutive waves of people blinded him and exhausted him physically and mentally, he still doesn't know what happened, but one thing is very clear, you can't do it casually. To make a choice, you need to think clearly.

Li Shimin was also expressionless. In fact, he wanted to talk. In his opinion, first of all, Liu Hongji and Zhang Pinggao should be summoned to lead troops to escort them as soon as possible. Slowly search for clues, and slowly investigate the inside story.

But Li Shimin couldn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak. On the one hand, it was because of Liu Hongji's status as a direct descendant of King Qin, not to mention that Li Shiji and Huang Junhan, two generals in the army, were both direct descendants of Li Shimin.

On the other hand, Wei Zheng's suggestion...calling the crown prince and Yang Wengan to see them, as long as they come, black and white will be clear, nothing is more convincing than this.

Unless the crown prince and Yang Wengan dared not come, but Wei Zheng must have thought carefully before setting off, and he must have discussed with the crown prince, Wang Gui, and Pei Shiju. The possibility that Li Jiancheng dare not come to Renzhi Palace is very low.

The most important thing is that Li Shimin knew that his father might suspect that he had secretly manipulated him in an attempt to enter the East Palace as soon as possible.

The atmosphere in the hall was a bit stagnant, no one dared to take a big breath, Qiao Gongshan in the corner looked at all this blankly, everything exceeded his expectations, beyond his imagination.

In fact, the current Li Yuan didn't believe any of them, but after a short period of confusion, he found that none of them was worthy of doubt, which made the Great Tang Emperor fall into deeper confusion.

If the prince is determined to rebel, what will Wei Zheng do?
Is it a delay?
Impossible, this can only scare the snake away.

A few years ago, delivering armor and ordnance to Yang Wenqian was Dalang's way of protecting himself. Li Yuan didn't have the face to use this as an excuse to abolish the prince. The entire court knew that this was his acquiescence... If it is an excuse to abolish the prince, there are still three thousand Changlin troops in the Forbidden Garden.

And the reason why Li Yuan arranged backhands around Chang'an was simply because he didn't want to use this as an excuse to make Yi Chu.

This time, Qiao Gongshan went out of Beijing to transport the armaments, obviously not ordered by the crown prince, otherwise Wei Zheng would not have galloped here to express his heart for the crown prince, and even released the promise that the crown prince would come to Renzhi Palace to have an audience... Although it was not stated clearly , but Li Yuan knew what Wei Zheng meant, and the prince must be more than a dozen riders, and even came alone to plead guilty.

On the contrary, Qiao Gongshan came to Renzhi Palace to sue the prince for treason, which means that this person is probably appointed by Erlang... Li Yuan glanced at Qiaogong Mountain in the corner from the corner of his eyes, he vaguely remembered that this person was the old man of Donggong Palace , was also an old man in Jinyang back then.

Was it bought by Erlang recently?
Or did Erlang install himself in the East Palace early?

Thinking of this, Li Yuan felt a little cold in his heart, plus Du Fengju, who accused the prince of treason in the second wave, was born in Jingzhao Du's family, and Du Yan and Du Ruhui were both officials of Tiance Mansion.

Most importantly, Li Yuan felt that the prince would not be so stupid. He took away Pei Ji, Luo Yi, and Feng Li. Da Lang would choose to raise troops at this time?
Li Yuan shook his head slightly. If he wanted to rebel, any time in the future would be more suitable than now. At least he could target himself or Erlang in the first place.

Turning his head to look at Li Shimin, Li Yuan, who had experienced three waves of shocks, initially targeted the second son with suspicion, but now his suspicion level has been greatly reduced.

The reason is not complicated. On the one hand, Li Yuan has already promised Li Shimin in private that it is easy to store this year, and it is already July. In a few months, Li Shimin will be able to enter the East Palace smoothly. Why bother?

And judging from the performance during this period, whether it is the attitude of King Qin himself or the attitude of Tiance Mansion, there is no urgency... Well, Changsun Wuji may be an exception.

On the other hand, and most importantly, Li Yuan has a very complex perception of his second son, from his admiration when he was a teenager, to his reliance on him when he was young, to his fear and vigilance later, to his current dependence and trust.

But one thing is for sure, Li Yuan has always recognized Li Shimin's abilities, he is smart and powerful, brilliant and outstanding, and he can be both gentle and martial.

Such a framing method full of loopholes is really inconsistent with Erlang's past behavior.

Li Yuan felt that if Erlang wanted to frame the prince, he would be able to do it perfectly. With his scheming and power in the court, it could be done.

From Qiao Gongshan's report, to Du Feng's report, to Wei Zheng's arrival... If the first two were written by Erlang, it can only be said to be too clumsy.

Du Ruhui was hailed as the "talent of Wang Zuo", Fang Xuanling and Ling Jing were both famous ministers, and although Changsun Wuji was cunning, he was not lacking in scheming, did he come up with such a clumsy plan?
Li Yuan fell into such deep thought. He knew something must have gone wrong, but he still couldn't determine who the mastermind behind the scenes was, and he didn't even know what the other party wanted to do.

After a long time, Li Yuan asked softly, "When is it?"

Su Zhi, the supervisor in the hall at the side, responded: "Your Majesty, it's been three quarters of the ugly hour, do you want to call for meals?"

Li Yuan shook his head, and turned his attention to Cui Xin, a member of Zhongshushe, "Cui Qing drafted an edict."

"Yes." Cui Xin picked up the brush and licked it in the ink pool that had been grinding.

"Send the envoys back to Chang'an immediately, and order Li Huairen, the king of Wei, to collect troops from Xinfeng and Liquan, restrain Ren Guogong Liu Hongji, Xiao Guogong Zhang Pinggao, Cao Guogong Li Shiji, Guoguo Gong Huang Junhan, and move to Fangzhou and Jingzhao border place."

Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. Phoenix Valley is only more than 30 miles away from Jingzhao. As long as he can make it there, there will be no problems. Feng Lun also called over.

Li Shimin faintly felt that something was not quite right. If Du Yan was greedy for his contribution to the dragon, it is still possible to overwhelm his nephew Du Ruhui. Risk... is it necessary?
And why did Er Zhuhuan, who had been in contact with Feng Lun, suddenly rebel?
These are all doubts in Li Shimin's mind.

Wei Zheng glanced sideways at Li Shimin, then lowered his head, thinking that Pei Hongda's conjecture was correct. In fact, there were also objections to this matter within the East Palace. Tell the prince with certainty that there must be ambushes around Chang'an.

Xinfeng and Liquan are on the edge of Chang'an, one is in the west and the other is in the east. They are guarding Chang'an...in other words, they are in a state of restraint.

If Li Shiji and Huang Junhan can still appear as Yongzhou governors and Bie Jia, then the two names Liu Hongji and Zhang Pinggao have already proved His Majesty's attitude.
