The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2240 Argument
"Okay, it's useless for us to talk and talk here. In short, you just remember what I said. Everything will have a solution. It's just a matter of time." Di Renjie said.

Di Renjie calculated in his heart that since the prince had appeared, the day when he would leave this cell would not be far away.

When Li Jue returned to the palace, he did go to the Xuanzheng Hall to meet his father.

Li Chengqian's goal of letting Li Jue go to the cell in Dali Temple has also been achieved, and Li Chengqian also feels in his heart that Di Renjie can be released now.

During the few days Di Renjie lived in the cell, Lai Junchen also did a lot of things in Chang'an, arrested several officials and small officials, tortured them to extract confessions, framed Xuan Shijing, and at the same time wanted to kill Di Renjie who had conspired against him. Things are solid.

However, when these evidences were presented, Li Chengqian just glanced at them.

It was nothing more than a tool that he could use in his hands, and what the tool man said was not credible.

However, the matter of Di Renjie's prison was not as simple as Di Renjie imagined. Li Chengqian didn't reveal anything about it, and only Li Jue knew what he meant. In front of the courtiers, Li Chengqian Still avoiding the issue of Di Renjie, but Prince Li Jue made a request for Di Renjie's release in the court hall. The reason was that there was no evidence to prove that Di Renjie had rebelled. There was no evidence attached, it was nothing more than hearsay. Since the person was also locked up and no evidence was found, it was only natural to release him.

In this case, in the court hall, what the courtiers saw was that the crown prince and His Majesty were arguing about Di Renjie.

They couldn't guess what His Majesty was thinking, so they didn't know whether they should stand up and speak for Di Renjie.

As for Lai Junchen, Lai Junchen was even more afraid to speak, because he was afraid that he would offend the prince if he stood up. The way out he had left for himself earlier was the prince Li Jue, and Li Jue had successfully become the prince. It's too late to flatter Li Jue, so how could he go against Li Jue?

"About Di Renjie's matter, let me think about it for a while." Li Chengqian said: "Prince, there is no need to worry. If Di Renjie is really innocent, I will definitely give him back his innocence."

"Father, a person is innocent, how can he prove his innocence?" Li Jue cupped his hands and said, "I implore Father, release Di Renjie."

Li Jue still refused to back down.

Many ministers in the palace were sweating coldly for Li Jue.

It's not good for the prince to contradict His Majesty like this, what if His Majesty is upset?
"Lai Junchen, you are the one who reported on Di Renjie, what do you think of the crown prince's statement?" Li Chengqian looked at Lai Junchen, and directly threw this hot potato to Lai Junchen.

Lai Junchen didn't expect that the matter would come back to him after going round and round. How should he answer this question?On the one hand is Di Renjie who is an eyesore, and on the other hand is the prince who cannot be offended.

If one answer is not good, neither side will be able to please.

Lai Junchen also struggled in his heart.

"My lord came to participate in Di Renjie's performance. I don't know how long it has passed. Has my lord found any evidence to prove Di Renjie's rebellion?" Li Jue's sharp eyes fell on Lai Junchen.

He didn't like Lai Junchen from the bottom of his heart.

It can even be said to be disgusting to Junchen.

"Weichen has never found it." Lai Junchen said.

"Then your lord is listening to the wind?" Li Jue continued to ask.

Lai Junchen didn't know how to answer the question of "this", because according to the original idea, with the support of His Majesty, he would make some small moves in Chang'an City to directly confirm Di Renjie's crime. It was done, but the crown prince intervened in this matter too early, which was beyond his expectation, so many things were not completed at all, so they had to be terminated halfway. In addition, Xu Zhengqing from Dali Temple was also a difficult People who are entangled should be on guard all the time, which made Lai Junchen feel bound when doing things in Chang'an City.

Because although His Majesty asked him to investigate the case, he didn't give him much right at all. Everything is just a name. If the name is used well, it is the right. OK, so that caused the situation today.

Today's Lai Junchen is now in the Hanyuan Hall, at this moment, it seems that he is struggling a bit.

"Okay, the crown prince doesn't need to come to love Qing." Li Chengqian said: "I'm free to think about Di Renjie's matter."

In the morning, the dispute between Prince Li Jue and His Majesty did not come to any conclusion, and Di Renjie was still living in the cell, but after this dispute, others were not in a hurry, but Lai Junchen was in a hurry.

If Di Renjie is still alive, the prince will definitely continue to speak for Di Renjie and argue with His Majesty, and after each dispute, the prince will remember why Di Renjie was imprisoned in the cell of Dali Temple, and then think of him Junchen.

Lai Junchen's original intention was to make friends with the prince and curry favor with him. If this continues, it is very likely that he will offend the prince, and even offend the prince to death. Lai Junchen does not want to be an enemy of the prince.

What can be done right now is Di Renjie's death, or let it go and let the prince rescue Di Renjie smoothly, but if this opportunity is missed, then it will be even more difficult for him to do next. After Di Renjie came out, he How can you confirm the matter of Qi Guogong?
It is His Majesty's purpose to deal with the Duke of Qi. If he can't do this well, I am afraid that in His Majesty's eyes, he is a useless person. Then his life will be over, and he will no longer be favored by His Majesty. If you pay attention, the person who offended before will fight back, and he will soon end up dead without a place to bury him.

When he first came to Junchen, he had thought that since he wanted to rely on such means to get promoted and make a fortune, he must always keep himself in His Majesty's eyes. Therefore, regarding the Duke of Qi, he could not fail.

Only by stepping on Qi Guogong, his future will be the safest.

Because this is also for the ministers of the court, Qi Guogong can be stepped down by him, let alone you?
In this way, the officials in the court will no longer dare to do anything to Lai Junchen out of fear.
