Chapter 148
"Why did Your Highness just do this?" Wang Xuance asked Li Ke just after Li Ke left the gate of the Du Mansion.

Li Ke glanced at Wang Xuance, and asked back, "What do you mean, sir?"

Wang Xuance said: "Your Highness clearly has the opportunity to win Du Xiang over, why do you want to distance yourself deliberately?"

From Wang Xuance's point of view, Li Ke did not hesitate to go to the deep mountains to seek medical treatment for Du Ruhui as a prince, just to take this opportunity to be kind to Du Ruhui, win Du Ruhui over, and serve as a support for the court?
But just after Du Ruhui agreed to accept Li Ke's love, Li Ke changed his tone and left Du's residence.

Li Ke shook his head when he heard the words, and sighed: "President Du worshiped Shangshu Youpushe, and if he wins over him, he wins over half of Shangshu province. Do you think the king doesn't want it?"

The chief official of Shangshu Province was originally Shangshuling, but Emperor Li Shimin had served as Shangshuling when he was the king of Qin, so no one dared to serve as this official again. He is in charge of the six major powers, and he is also known as the right and left.

Du Ruhui has already worshiped the right servant as a meritorious official in the emperor's hidden residence, and has the power to select officials from all over the world, even above the heavenly officials of the official department. It is impossible for Li Ke not to want such power, but Li Ke at this time How dare to reach out?

Wang Xuance is a wise man, after hearing Li Ke's words, he immediately understood Li Ke's concerns, and said to Li Ke, "Your Highness is worried about His Majesty's displeasure?"

Li Ke nodded and said: "Du Ruhui has a high position and authority, and he is the servant of the emperor, the real right-hand man. How can this king be able to win over such a person, and how can this king be able to win over Earthquake."

Du Ruhui was already an extremely talented minister, whether he was an official or a noble, he had already reached the peak of a courtier. What else could Li Ke give him? What could he use to attract Du Ruhui and ask Du Ruhui to help him seize the heir apparent.

Moreover, Du Ruhui is different from Wang Xuance, Cen Wenwen, and even Wen Yanbo.

Li Ke can accept Wang Xuance as his subordinate Sima, worship Cen Wenwen as his teacher, and be very close to Wen Yanbo. These are all irrelevant, because these have not touched Li Shimin's bottom line, but if Li Ke dares to win over Du Ruhui, then Li Ke will be touched. It hit Li Shimin's bottom line.Li Shimin will never condone him.

Li Ke was young, and his Chu royal party was still weak. Without the protection of Li Shimin, Li Ke did not have the ability to protect himself in the court.

Therefore, instead of wasting his efforts in wooing Du Ruhui, Li Ke might as well tell Du Ruhui directly that he did not hesitate to go deep into the mountains to save Du Ruhui not for Du Ruhui's life, but for Li Shimin.

Wang Xuance cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness's words are very true. Your Highness is still thoughtful when facing Du Xiang. I admire you."

Li Ke looked at Wang Xuance, sighed, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and said: "This king is also acting helplessly, just now there must be the eyeliner of the father in Du's residence, this king can't do anything."

Li Ke is Li Shimin's beloved son. It is needless to say that Li Shimin loves Li Ke, but Li Ke was born in the royal family and faced a struggle for power. Can be like walking on eggshells.

Wang Xuance looked at Li Ke's appearance, and comforted him, "Your Highness is relieved, although today's action intentionally alienated Du Xiang, His Highness did not gain anything at all. At least Mrs. Du and Fang Ping, who had a good relationship with Du, still took over from His Highness. love."

Just before Li Ke left the mansion, Mrs. Du made a special trip to see him off. Naturally, she was grateful to Li Ke for saving Du Ruhui, and also thanked Li Ke for his willingness to write to the emperor, ordering Du Ruhui to recuperate from illness.

Li Ke heard the words and said with a smile: "It's a pity that Du Xiang is not a person who fears internal affairs. If Du Xiang is as fearful of internal affairs as Fang Xiang, the king and his party today will return with a full load."

The left servant of the Shangshu pointed out that Fang Xuanling had always been afraid of internal affairs, and Fang Xuanling's wife, Fang Lu, had always had the final say in the mansion, so Li Ke made this joke.

----------

Li Ke was heading from Cai Guogong's mansion to his own mansion. At the same time, Sikong Chief Sun Wuji also got the news of Li Ke's return to Beijing.

In the north of Chang'an City, Yongxingfang is close to the Yanxi Gate of Miyagi.

Since Li Ke returned to Chang'an safely, Changshun Wuji has never felt at ease for a day. Whenever Changsun Wuji thinks of Li Ke's appearance, he will inevitably feel resentful.

A few days ago, when Li Ke opened a mansion to build a government office, Changsun Wuji wanted to take this opportunity to place a large number of people in Li Ke's Chu king, to use them as eyes and ears to spy on Li Ke's mansion, but Li Ke was prepared for a long time. The maids sent by Dongshi, and even the maids selected and sent by the palace were sent to the outer court by Li Ke, which was of no use.

As a result, Changsun Wuji became more and more uneasy.

Faced with such a young man, Changsun Wuji felt a great sense of crisis, which was never given to Changsun Wuji by the former prince Li Jiancheng.

Li Ke has such means at such a young age, Changsun Wuji can't even imagine how much trouble Li Ke will cause him when he grows up in the future, Changsun Wuji will never watch Li Ke grow up.

Therefore, the first time Changsun Wuji learned that Li Ke brought Sun Simiao to rescue Du Ruhui, he ordered someone to send his confidant Chu Liang.

"You must already know about the affairs of Du Ruhui's residence." As soon as Chu Liang entered the door, Changsun Wuji said to Chu Liang straight to the point.

Chu Liang replied: "Master Sikong is referring to the matter of Chu Wang and Sun Simiao rescuing Du Xiang?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Yes, this time Li Ke entered Zhongnan, I didn't expect that he actually invited Sun Simiao back and rescued Du Ruhui. If Du Ruhui also helps Li Ke in the future, I am afraid that Li Ke's power in the court It’s bound to skyrocket.”

Chu Liang said: "Lord Sikong is far-sighted. In the past, what he said outside the sect of Chongjiao became a prophecy, and the king of Chu finally became a climate."

"Humph!"

Changsun Wuji snorted softly, patted the arm of the chair and said, "Weather? There is no time, and he is a child, let alone a hero. What kind of weather can he be? He just took advantage of his youth and let him take advantage of the loopholes."

Hearing this, Chu Liang knew that Changsun Wuji must have something to say, so he asked, "I don't know what orders Master Sikong has ordered you to come here?"

Changsun Wuji said: "Although Li Ke is not a hero, he has always been good at making tricks. If it goes on for a long time, he will be a trouble after all. You and I are in the same boat, do you have a good strategy to deal with Li Ke?"

Chu Liang devoted himself to Changsun Wuji, and all the prosperity and wealth of his Chu family depended on Changsun Wuji, so he naturally did his best.

Chu Liang thought for a moment, and said to Changsun Wuji: "The King of Chu has always been careful in his actions, but he has not left any excuses. If you want to attack him, the best chance is the Turks."

Li Ke has a very close relationship with the Turks, especially the left-leading general Zhi Shili has saved Li Ke's life, and it is also a way for the Turks to deal with Li Ke.

However, Changsun Wuji said: "At the Prisoner Presentation Banquet, Prime Minister Yan already impeached Li Ke for the Turkic matter, but he saved Li Ke from a catastrophe. If you bring it out again now, I'm afraid Your Majesty may not believe it." .”

Hearing this, Chu Liang thought to himself: "When Prime Minister Yan is not thinking carefully, it is inevitable that he will miss, but if Mr. Sikong acts according to the words of his subordinates, even if it will not kill Li Ke, it will also destroy his reputation!"
