Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 24: Everyone in the court is my people, how can you fight me

Li Tai returned to the Prince of Wei's Palace with an expressionless face, carrying various books and a talented person who was well versed in geography.

After the books and people were settled, Li Tai sat silently in the chair without saying a word.

As soon as he picked up the teacup, he saw Li Chengqian's smiling face emerging in the tea.

Fourth brother did a good job.

Fourth brother, don’t you agree?

Fourth brother...

Bang!
Damn it, so damn damn!
Li Tai angrily smashed the exquisite teacup to pieces, but he still felt unsatisfied.

In order to get rid of Su Chen, the scourge, he had a detailed discussion with Chai Zhewei and others before formulating a plan.

As a result, not only did Su Chen not die, but the eight veteran soldiers they arranged for an ambush all died at his hands, causing an extremely bad impact, which resulted in Chai Zhewei's official position as General of the Central Army being completely stripped!
In order to lift the ban, he arranged his men to work day and night to finally compile the first issue of Comprehensive Geography. As a result, Li Chengqian sent him countless geographical books and recruited a large number of talents for him. He proposed that he compile all the states and counties in the Tang Dynasty into books.

Even his father was deceived by him and asked him to compile the customs and habits of Liugui Kingdom!
The ghost country!
That is a small country thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty!
Small country!!
Our Great Tang has vast territory and is rich in every direction. Why should we value such a tiny country? !

Bang bang bang!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the angrier I get, the more I think about it.

Li Tai's eyes gradually became bloodshot, and like a desktop cleaning master, he smashed the tables and chairs in the hall to vent his hatred!
The servants guarding outside the hall were so frightened by this scene that they turned around and ran away.

Just a moment.

Wei Ting strode over, and before he entered the hall, he saw that the hall was in a mess.

"Your Majesty?"

"What's the matter?"

Li Tai's bloodshot eyes suddenly turned to Wei Ting.

Huhu.

Seeing who was coming, Li Tai closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down his emotions, "Sorry."

Wei Ting shook his head and told the servants to clean up the hall.

Afterwards, Wei Ting asked the reason of the incident in confusion.

When talking about entering the palace today, Li Tai's anger, which had just subsided, rose again.

After describing the situation, Li Tai could not help but said angrily, "Father has been completely deceived by the Crown Prince! He has never thought about reconciling the past grudges, but instead deliberately suppresses me!"

A plan is just a plan.

As the saying goes, man proposes, God disposes.

Who could have thought that when Su Chen was about to be killed, an extremely brave and ferocious villain suddenly appeared?
Who could have thought that the prince, who had been arguing with Your Majesty a few days ago, would suddenly go to the palace to visit Your Majesty and prepare so many books and talents for the King of Wei?
Wei Ting sighed, "It's fate, it's not the fault of the plot, I can only say that Su Chen is too lucky."

"But Your Majesty, did General Chai really not tell anyone about you?"

Li Tai nodded, feeling relieved but a little helpless. "Chai Zhewei did not report me, but this incident was a huge blow to him."

One second he was the high and mighty General Zhonglang with a bright future, but the next second he fell from the clouds to dust.

No one could accept such a blow.

"As long as General Chai doesn't report the prince."

Wei Ting stroked his beard and smiled slightly, "Actually, there may be a chance for this to turn around."

Li Tai looked over.

Wei Ting continued, "Duke Chai and Princess Ping Zhaoyang are no longer with us, but their relationship still exists. If General Chai seeks Princess Gaomi's help, with Princess Gaomi's status and Lord Duan's memorial, the punishment may be mitigated."

Li Tai hesitated for a moment, and when he thought of Li Shimin's expression at that time, he hesitated, "Father is extremely angry about the adverse impact of this matter. I am afraid that even if my aunt and the others go, they may not be able to make Father take back his order."

Wei Ting: "You can give it a try. Even if it fails, it is not a bad idea to use General Chai again when the prince ascends the throne in the future."

"Alright."

Li Tai turned around and walked to the desk, picked up paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and quickly wrote a letter.

"Somebody come!"

"Your Majesty."

"Hand this letter to Chai Zhewei personally. No mistakes can be made!"

"Yes."

After doing this, Li Tai's guilt was somewhat relieved.

After inviting Wei Ting to take a seat and ordering someone to serve him hot tea again, Li Tai could not help but express some of the doubts in his mind.

"It's strange to say that at that time, the emperor seemed to only intend to give Chai Zhewei a small punishment, but who would have thought that just when the emperor was about to give the order, the news about the Liugui Kingdom was sent to the palace, causing the emperor's attitude towards Chai Zhewei to suddenly change."

"Could it be that Su Chen knew the envoy of Liugui Country, Ke Ye Yuzhi, or that after meeting Ke Ye Yuzhi, he persuaded him to live in Wannian County first?"

Wei Ting smiled calmly, "Your Highness, you are worrying too much. How can he, a wild man from the mountains, know about the Liugui Kingdom thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty? If Your Highness is worried, you can send someone to investigate." Li Tai pinched the teacup, with murderous intent on his face: "We must investigate. This person has too much luck and is very close to the prince. We must not let him stay!"

Wei Ting: "This matter needs to be considered carefully."

Li Tai nodded to show that he understood.

But for some reason, after what happened today, Li Tai felt inexplicably fearful.

It was as if there was an invisible net hidden in the darkness, tightening little by little, trapping him inside and making it impossible for him to escape.

……

Wannian County.

A restaurant not far from the post house.

Su Chen leaned against the window, holding a wine glass in his hand, and his eyes swept across the street from time to time.

Opposite him were two people.

One was Sun Qiang, who was injured but refused to leave the front line, and the other was Su Wang, who was a man of Su Tan, the governor of Taizhou.

According to Su Wang's self-introduction, he is a distant relative of the Su family. He is valued by Su Tan and is arranged to work by his side.

This time he was ordered to bring 30,000 taels of silver, allowing the prince to squander it, and he would stay in Chang'an City and serve as a hub of communication between the two.

Seeing that Su Chen didn't care about the delicious food in front of him, but looked down at the street from time to time, Su Wang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master Su, are you waiting for someone from the Honglu Temple?"

Su Chen looked over and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Su Wang knew that Su Chen was testing him.

After a moment's silence, Su Wang said, "After meeting Master Su today, Master Su intentionally or unintentionally revealed the death of eight people in Chang'an West Market."

"Especially when the envoy from Liugui Kingdom came here to dine just now, you kept looking in the direction of Liugui Kingdom intentionally or unintentionally, causing them to leave the restaurant in a hurry and go to the post station."

"So I guess that Master Su did it on purpose. If that's the case, then the people in the post station just left, probably to report the matter."

"I am stupid and don't know whether what I said is right or wrong. Please correct me, sir."

Su Chen raised his glass. Seeing this, Su Wang hurriedly picked up the glass with a puzzled look on his face.

Su Chen: "Let's drink together."

"Thank you, Master Su."

Su Wang smiled immediately.

Su Chen's actions this time undoubtedly proved that his guess was correct.

Da da da.

The sound of horse hooves came from afar.

Su Wang looked over and saw that the man in the lead was wearing an official robe and was obviously a high-ranking official in Chang'an City.

"Lord Tang Jian?"

Sun Qiang said in surprise, "He actually came here in person?"

Su Chen: "It's good that you came."

Su Wang hurriedly stood up, picked up the wine pot, and filled a glass of wine for the laughing Su Chen, "Congratulations, young master..."

"No, it should be congratulations to your Prince Xianxu."

Su Chen drank it all in one gulp, "It's done, we should go back."

"Shopkeeper, it's time to settle the bill."

"Sir, shall we go home?"

"Well, let's go check out Duho."

It has been a while since I assigned Du He to do this, but there has been no news from Du He these days. I don't know how his progress is.

now.

Chai Zhewei's position as General of the Central Army would probably be lost. As long as his position as General of the Central Army was taken away, Li Chengqian would definitely push his own people to this position.

With the Zhonglang General in hand, they will have the final say on the patrols in the city. So Du He should have made some progress on the corresponding weapons.

We must grasp both the civil and military skills with both hands, and both hands must be strong!
By then.

The whole court is filled with people from the Eastern Palace, how can Li Tai fight?
As long as Li Chengqian is willing, it is not impossible for Your Majesty to become the emperor in a moment!

The carriage carrying Su Chen and the other two slowly drove into Chang'an City and headed towards the Xiangyang County Mansion.

"Oh dad, stop hitting me, I was wrong..."
