The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 669

"Concubine Mu, on the one hand, those people need you to come forward to appease them, and on the other hand, this case is really not going to work, so we can only divert the trouble." Li Ke said after thinking for a while.

"Ke'er, do you mean to find a scapegoat to carry this case over?" Concubine Yang looked at Li Ke and asked.

Li Ke nodded: "That's right, and the scapegoat, it's better to be a little involved with them, but not a very important person. This can be regarded as a warning to them, so that they should not act recklessly in the future."

After hearing Li Ke's proposal, Concubine Yang nodded in agreement. Their mother and son are masters, and those old ministers are servants. Don't want it to happen a second time.

"That's very good, then outside the palace, Ke'er, you can find a way, and mother will write to contact those people." Concubine Yang said.

"En." Li Ke nodded: "If that's the case, the child won't spend much time in the mother's palace."

"Okay, let's go." Concubine Yang said.

After Li Ke bowed to Concubine Yang and saluted, he turned and left Concubine Yang's bedroom. Concubine Yang watched Li Ke leave before she walked out of the bedroom and called her personal maid in.

"Sujin, Momo, Ben Gong also wrote a letter."

"Yes." Su Jin responded, walked to the desk, first spread out the paper for Concubine Yang, then picked up the ink stick and began to study the ink.

Concubine Yang went to the desk, sat down on her knees, and picked up the pen. She just thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't write it down.

"Your Majesty, why are you worried?" Su Jin asked while rubbing ink.

"It's not because of the old ministers of the former Sui Dynasty." Concubine Yang sighed and put down the brush in her hand.

Su Jin has been with Concubine Yang since Concubine Yang was the former princess of the Sui Dynasty, until now Concubine Yang has become a concubine in the harem of the Tang Dynasty, and she has been watching Concubine Yang step by step to today, so Concubine Yang may not trust others in this palace, but she has nothing to say to Su Jin, otherwise, after so many years, Concubine Yang would have gone crazy in this harem by herself.

"Are those people causing trouble for the empress again?" Su Jin asked.

Concubine Yang shook her head helplessly with a wry smile: "I hope that they will come directly to make trouble for me, but this time, they went directly to Ke'er."

"His Royal Highness Wu Wang, could it be that His Royal Highness Wu Wang came here just for this purpose?" Su Jin was full of surprise.

"Exactly." Concubine Yang said: "I think it's not an option to procrastinate like this. One day I won't be able to hide it. The unlucky one is Ke'er. In my life, the greatest hope is Ke'er and Min." Er, although Ke'er is in Chang'an now, he is highly valued by His Majesty. Although Min'er is not a weapon, he still has his own fief and a foothold, but if he is involved with the old officials of the former Sui Dynasty, once he is discovered , even if you have ten mouths, you can’t tell clearly, so I plan to write to those people.”

"My lady, according to my servants, those people will never give up so easily. The Great Sui Dynasty has been subjugated for more than 20 years, and they haven't given up until now. It can be said that they have spent most of their lives for the Great Sui. How could it be a letter from your mother?" The letter will be able to shake you." Su Jin frowned and said: "If the empress writes too decisively in the letter, maybe it will anger those people to do more excessive things, so this matter, the servant thinks, It should be figured out slowly."

Concubine Yang listened to Su Jin's words, thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the case, but if the words were not serious, those people might not have a long memory.

"It's really a dilemma." Concubine Yang sighed, as if a little discouraged, but thinking of Li Ke and Li Yin brothers, she cheered up again.

Pick up the pen and start to write the letter. After a long time, a letter can be regarded as finished.

"Sujin, after a while you take my token and send it out of the palace in person to their contact point in Chang'an City. Be careful on the way." Concubine Yang instructed.

"Yes, this servant knows." Su Jin nodded seriously.

Li Ke returned to the Prince Wu's Mansion in Chang'an. As soon as he entered, the concierge walked up to Li Ke with a greeting card.

"My lord, this is a greeting note from Dongshanhou's mansion just now, saying that in the morning, Dongshan Houye will come to visit our house." The concierge said, and handed the greeting card in his hand to Li Ke.

Li Ke looked at the greeting card in the porter's hand, and reached out to take it.

I didn't expect to come so much, so how should I face Xiao Jing?

With a helpless sigh, Li Ke returned to the study with the greeting card. Now he needs to be quiet so that he can calm down and think about these messy things.

In Xuanwu Building, Xuan Shijing was still sitting on the chair, but the person opposite was replaced by Xuan Qing, a Jinshi who came from the side of the Zheng family, Zheng An.

After Xuan Shijing told someone in the court that cheating in the Chunwei exam involved a few of them Jinshi, Zheng An's reaction was exactly the same as Xuan Qing's.

"Xuanhou, cheating is absolutely impossible." Zheng An said firmly.

"Zheng Jinshi speaks so righteously, maybe you can believe that you have not cheated, but what about others? Can Zheng Jinshi guarantee it?" Xuan Shijing asked Zheng An, keeping his eyes on Zheng An.

"Although there is no [-]% guarantee, but after being in contact with other Jinshi of the same period, I can see that they are all gentlemen, and it is absolutely impossible for them to do such a nasty thing." Zheng An was still firm in his answer. .

Xuan Shijing rubbed his chin and said with a smile: "Perhaps this case itself is a non-existent matter, but it can also show that in this court, someone is targeting Zheng Jinshi and you, and perhaps more is targeting Zheng Jinshi and you ,What do you think?"

"Xuanhou is saying that someone wants to use this case to deal with it? Is it possible? It's from the Zheng family?!" Speaking of the Zheng family, Zheng An's face clearly flashed an expression of displeasure.

"Maybe so, but without evidence, you can't just put the blame on others, right?" Xuan Shijing laughed.

"What does Xuanhou want to know?" Zheng An said, "What about me and the Zheng family?"

"Zheng Jinshi is really a smart person, he can see through a little bit." Xuan Shijing straightened up and faced Zheng An and said, "Since you know what the Marquis wants to ask, why don't you just talk about it yourself. It’s not an unspeakable confidential matter, is it? The reason why the Marquis Ben asked you here today, maybe after reading these two lists, you can understand a little bit.” Xuan Shijing told Xuan The list written by Qing was pushed in front of Zheng An together with the list of suspected cheating cases.
