Chapter 716 Li Ke's "handle"

Li Ke wants to prevent Li Shimin from taking the medicine. Apart from persuading Li Shimin, he has another way, which is to expose Cheng Gongying's true colors.

Li Ke has no way to prove whether there is any life-extending elixir in this world, but Li Ke can prove that Cheng Gongying is a deceitful person, as long as Cheng Gongying is asked to go to Fujian to invite his so-called master who is over a hundred years old, the truth can be distinguished.

As for the so-called Daoist grand meeting that Li Ke said was just something that had no shadow, it was probably decided by Li Ke himself on the spur of the moment, purely to deal with Cheng Gongying.Li Ke had the final say on the affairs of the East Palace, and if Li Ke said yes, it would naturally happen.

Cheng Gongying also knew what Li Ke meant by doing this, but Cheng Gongying didn't have a good idea.Seventy years of life is rare, so where can he find a master who is over a hundred years old and proficient in Taoism?
Thinking of this, Cheng Gongying felt unhappy, and went out of the palace worriedly, and returned to the house that Zhang Liang had bought for him.

Today is the elixir offered by Cheng Gongying, which has shown initial results. The day of entering the palace to meet Li Shimin, naturally has a lot to do with it. Cheng Gongying's good friend, Li Ling, the wife of Duke Yun, made a special trip here to wait.

Li Ling was waiting in the room, after a while, Cheng Gongying walked in with a pale face.

Looking at Cheng Gongying's appearance, Li Ling knew that things must not be going well.

Li Ling stepped forward quickly, and asked Cheng Gongying: "Why does Ah Lang look like this, what's the matter, but the medicine pill doesn't work well, making Your Majesty unhappy?"

Cheng Gongying shook her head and said, "There is nothing wrong with the pill, and His Majesty is very satisfied."

Li Ling asked puzzledly: "Then why do you look like this?"

Cheng Gongying replied: "It's not because of the prince."

"But the prince said something wrong about you in front of His Majesty?" Li Ling continued to ask.

Cheng Gongying sighed and said: "The crown prince is very skillful, how could he directly accuse me in front of His Majesty? He wants to see the real Nanhua in two months, but there is no real Nanhua in this world. Where can I find him? Such a fairy came."

Hearing Cheng Gongying's words, Li Ling's brows also slowly frowned. In just two months, it was too hasty. Even if there was such a person in this world, it would be difficult to find him.

Li Ling can handle Zhang Liang, and she is very courageous in the private quarters, but when it really concerns the court, when his opponent is Li Ke, she is timid instead.

Li Ling thought for a while, and said worriedly: "If it's really not possible, let's escape secretly. I have a lot of money, which is enough for us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives. As long as we escape, Your Majesty will never give up for his own reputation. There won't be a lot of raids."

What Li Ling said is indeed true. Li Shimin cherishes his feathers and values ​​his reputation the most. Even if they escape, Li Shimin will not order a large-scale search to protect his reputation. Otherwise, everyone will know that the emperor was deceived by charlatans. up.

What Li Ling said was safe, but it was not the result Cheng Gongying wanted. How could Cheng Gongying take such risks and waste so much thought for such a result.

Prosperity and wealth are right in front of you, and one step closer, he is the emperor's favored minister. Now if you want him to leave in disgrace and hide everywhere, he will never be reconciled.

Cheng Gongying held Li Ling's hand, and said to Li Ling in a similar manner: "You treat me so sincerely, how can I have the heart to ask you to accompany me around?"

Li Ling asked: "Then what can you do?"

Cheng Gongying said: "The only way out for now is to try to find someone who pretends to be the real person of Nanhua, and see if he can be fooled."

Li Ling said anxiously: "The prince is so shrewd, how can he be easily fooled."

Cheng Gongying gritted her teeth and said, "It's best if it can be done. If not, we can find an old Taoist at random, and we can kill him on the way. From central and southern Fujian, Chang'an must go through the canal, and if we want to sink a ship How can a boat be difficult?"

Li Ling said: "Although it is a helpless move, this is the only way to do it now."

Cheng Gongying said: "I just hope that the prince will not keep staring at us, otherwise there will be many things in the future."

Li Ling listened to Cheng Gongying's words, and complained: "The prince's own affairs have not been handled properly, and all the romantic affairs in the palace have been spread outside, and he is still staring at us."

Cheng Gongying listened to Li Ling's words, and it seemed that something Li Ke had done in the palace had reached her ears.Now Cheng Gongying is suffering from being stared at by Li Ke. If there is something that can make Li Ke burnt out, or even ruin his reputation, it will be a good thing.

Cheng Gongying asked: "Do you know what happened to the prince?"

Li Ling could also guess Cheng Gongying's meaning, so he said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, he can't handle this matter."

Cheng Gongying said: "Whether you can do it or not, just tell me."

Li Ling said: "I also listened to it when I was chatting with other wives. The prince and concubine's sister-in-law, the former wife of Marquis Wu Chuan, have been having an affair for some time."

Cheng Gongying listened to Li Ling's words, and said excitedly: "Is this true?"

Li Ling said: "It's not once or twice that Mrs. Wu went to the East Palace to serve the prince. I'm afraid this has been done for some years. Mrs. Wu often goes to the East Palace, not only the people in the East Palace, but also the Marquis of Wuchuan and Yingguo. Many domestic slaves in the government also know about it, but they have never put it on the table."

Since the 11th year of Zhenguan, Wu Meiniang was pregnant with her second son Li Wei. Since Wu Shun entered the East Palace for the first time, Wu Shun has become a regular visitor to the East Palace. At the beginning, she was more cautious, and she still used the guise of visiting her sister in the palace. But later, the frequent visits made him no longer cover up, and sent people directly to the inner palace of the East Palace.People don't know about it once or twice, but after so many years, how can others not know about it, and it can't be passed on.

Li Ling is Zhang Liang's wife, and the wives of rich and powerful families that Li Ling interacted with were all well-informed people, and Li Ling would know these things when they chatted on weekdays.

Cheng Gongying clapped her palms and said with a smile: "The crown prince can't tolerate me, and he will attack me sooner or later. If so, we have a way to strike first."

Li Ling asked puzzledly: "The prince has been a romantic seed since he was a child, and he has been a frequent visitor to brothels. Everyone knows about this matter. This alone may not be enough to hurt the prince."

Li Ke has an affair with his wife and sister Wu Shun, so it would be unpleasant to say it out, and it would be bad for Li Ke, but Li Ke has a reputation for being romantic, although this matter is not good for Li Ke's reputation, it is not a big problem for Li Ke himself Li Shimin can't abolish Li Ke's crown prince just because Li Ke has an affair with Wu Shun.

If this matter got to Li Shimin's ears, it would probably be a reprimand to Li Ke, making Li Ke lose face. After all, Wu Shun's husband is dead, so it's okay to remarry. Ke, this is absolutely impossible.

Cheng Gongying said with a smile: "If you just use these private affairs to deal with the prince, it's not good, but what if it involves the emperor's heir?"

　The temperature has dropped today. I would like to say that the temperature in Suzhou in Suzhou has dropped by ten degrees a day. Everyone should also pay attention to keeping warm, so don’t catch a cold.
