Chapter 419
The two things that Chinese men cannot tolerate are the hatred of killing their father and the hatred of taking their wife. Even if they are the Supreme Master of Nine Five, they have three palaces and six courtyards, and there are countless women, but they are even more afraid of women who are in trouble.
In the palace, there were countless palace maids and eunuchs, but there were no other men.
No, in Tai Chi Palace, there are other men, princes and grandchildren. To be precise, not long ago, not only Li Yuan lived in the palace, but also Li Yuan's family lived. The prince lived in the East Palace next to Tai Chi Palace, and there was a gate leading directly to Da Nei. The King of Qi lived in the Wude Hall on the east side of Da Nei, and the King of Qin lived in the Chengqian Hall on the west side, both of which were in Da Nei.
Now the two adult princes have moved out, but Li Shimin's words about the prince and the King of Qi and the two concubines Zhang Yin cannot be ignored.
The two concubines Zhang Yin are Li Yuan's favorite concubines. These two concubines were originally palace maids in Jinyang Palace, and the palace supervisor Pei Ji gave them privately to Li Yuan. Sleeping on the dragon bed of Jinyang Palace, the woman of Emperor Yang Guang was a murderer, but these two women were really beautiful and tempting.
But no matter what, Li Yuan was very old, while the second concubine was very young, about the same age as the prince and the King of Qi.
Let’s think about it again that the prince and the second concubine are in good condition, and the second concubines are economically speaking for the prince. Especially last time, when the Yang Wengan incident, he wanted to depose the prince, but the second concubine kept blowing the wind beside her pillow.
Li Yuan directly found the second concubine and asked directly.
The two concubines were extremely surprised and their faces were pale.
"Your Majesty, who slanders us so much, we are willing to kill here to make chastity clear!"
Although the two concubines Zhang Yin had some problems such as greed, if they were said to have an affair with the prince and the King of Qi, this was completely slander.
The two women cried for a long time, and Li Yuan also felt that they were innocent. He sent someone to interrogate the palace eunuchs around the second concubine, which was indeed nothing.
Both of the two concubines had sons with Li Yuan, and their status in the palace was second only to Concubine Wan, and they were very favored. It is possible that they had a good relationship with the crown prince. But Li Yuan, who said they did not believe it anymore.
Twisting his beard, Li Yuan understood that Shimin was desperate and jumping over the wall.
"You go down, remember to keep your duties more in the future and interact less with the prince, King Qi and others." Li Yuan shook his back impatiently at the two crying women.
"Erlang, Erlang, I didn't expect you to be here and you still refused to give up." Li Yuan shook his head and sighed.
"Issued an imperial edict, and ordered Pei Ji, Chen Shuda, Xiao Yu, Feng Deyi, Yang Gongren, Yu Wenshi, Pei Shiju, Li Gang, Zheng Shanguo, Dou Dan, Chai Shao, Feng Lun, Qin Qiong to enter the palace together to discuss matters tomorrow!"
The thirteen people who were summoned were also very particular. The first nine were all the prime minister and the heads of the Eastern Palace officials, and the four sons-in-law were not ordinary. Fenglun was also the Minister of Justice.
These thirteen people included the three provincial governors in the court, the chief of the Eastern Palace, and their families.
Li Yuan made up his mind that tomorrow's confrontation would be a trial to judge the King of Qin. However, because it was related to the King of Qin, the King of Qin was a prince, and Li Yuan did not want to take this matter to the Golden Palace of the Outer Court, so he planned to only try it on the ship of the inner court sea pool.
He was going to demote the Qin King to the South China Sea Island in this trial.
Wubenfang, Grand Secretary.
Li Chao was silent all the time during the meal.
He didn't say a word, and he even just picked up a plate of dishes in front of him. Cui Yingying saw this in his eyes, which was very strange. Her husband was a delicious food. He had to cook some dishes for every meal, and liked to change things without repeating them. If he was not satisfied with the cooking, he would give his advice. Like today, he just lowered his head to stew the rice. After a bowl of rice, he only picked up a few chopsticks. This is very rare.
After dinner, Li Chao entered the bedroom early.
"Sanlang, are you worried?"
Li Chao turned around and took Cui Yingying's hand, "Shisanniang, I'll arrange someone to send you and Qi Niang later, as well as Hong Shi, Caiwei, Lianniang and others out of the city together."
"Out of the city?"
"Go to Zhongnan Mountain to catch incense!" Li Chao said.
Cui Yingying sat down next to her husband and looked at her husband's expression seriously. She had already felt her husband's unusualness today.
"What's the big deal?"
Li Chao didn't want to say it at first, but he knew that his wife was a smart woman. He didn't hide it from her now and whispered, "It's going to change, but I don't know what the result will be after this storm. I hope you can avoid this storm. I will send someone to pick you up after that!"
Cui Yingying's face turned pale. She was also concerned about the situation in the court, knowing that the competition for the palace was at its most intense time, and the King of Qin was completely at a disadvantage.
The husband is going to send them out of the city at this time, which shows that it is at the last moment.
"Sanlang, can't you avoid the storm? Isn't it great now?"
"Thirteen Niang, if people do not have a long-term plan, they will have immediate worries. Our family has stood in line at the beginning and there is no other choice in the face of this storm."
"I won't leave, I'll stay at home and wait for you."
"Listen to me, if you go to Zhongnan Mountain to pray and burn incense, I will be less concerned. If you are in the capital, I will still have to worry about you. Besides, if you are really unlucky and fail, I also hope you can leave a back for our family!"
"No, I won't leave! Let Du and the others go to Zhongnan Mountain to sautumn. They are pregnant, so I won't leave."
Li Chao sighed and didn't know whether she should say that she was stubborn or affectionate. But she was very moved, very blocked, and her nose was a little sour.
"Then you go and tell Caiwei and the others that you should arrange for the manager to take them away. Let Qi Niang take Lian'er and Lan'er away together!"
This is the biggest gambling.
Li Chao hates gambling because he is completely uncontrollable and the feeling of being uncontrollable is very annoying. But now, he has to take a gamble.
Cui Yingying said that he would be out of the matter, but how could he be out of the matter?
His relationship with the prince is so bad that he can't wait to eat him raw. One day, Li Yuan might be fine, but once Li Yuan dies and the prince succeeds to the throne, Li Chao probably will be in danger in his whole family.
This world is so big that there is no place where Li Chao can hide.
night.
Li Chao sat under the pomegranate tree in the yard, sharpening his sword one by one. This horizontal knife given by Li Shiji can cut off thirteen layers of cowhide with one force, and can pierce the round guards of the bright light armor on the Tang Mansion's body with one force. A horizontal knife made by a master is extremely sharp.
But so far, the knife has not drunk blood.
Li Chao had killed people on the battlefield, but he used a crossbow and drew his sword to kill people. He had never been there.
You can feel the sharpness when you gently scrape your fingers over the blade.
The father also appeared with a knife, but the father did not carry a horizontal knife, but a large machete with a ring head. This knife is bigger and more domineering, just as unusual as the iron spear used by his father.
"I'll sharpen the knife, too."
The father and son sat there sharpened their knives together.
"Is it tomorrow?" The father shaved his face with a knife and felt the tax profit of the blade.
"Well, I have all my strength." Li Chao nodded, "Dad, haven't you sent Qi Niang and the others to Zhongnan Mountain?"
"I sent them and rushed back."
"You should stay there."
"But you need me even more here." The father said calmly.
"How sure are you tomorrow?"
"I don't know, 10%." Li Chao smiled.
The father also smiled, "That's really a life-threatening death."
"Today is Gengzi Day, tomorrow is Xinchou Day!"
Lifanyuan, the courtyard of Dongnuguo.
Qingluan looked at the secret letter in front of her and was in a daze.
Black Panther gritted her teeth and said, "You really want to help Li Sanlang? You know, this is quite risky!"
"I promised Saburo that if he needs it, I will definitely help."
"But he did not say at that time that this help was such a beheading. If this matter was defeated, not only would hundreds of us die, but it would also affect the entire East Girl Kingdom. Have you ever thought about it?"
"People cannot speak without trust. I promised Saburo and will do it. If you don't want to go, it doesn't matter. You will take your subordinates out of Chang'an tomorrow."
"I won't see you go adventure alone." Black Panther said.
Qingluan smiled.
Eastern Palace.
Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji discussed together.
"Shimin is crazy and bites people like a mad dog."
"I heard that Your Majesty has summoned thirteen important officials, including several prime ministers, Li Gang, Pei Shiju, Zheng Shanguo and four princesses. Your Majesty will depose Shimin tomorrow." Li Jiancheng smiled, but in the end he laughed to the end.
He could no longer wait, and Li Shimin would be finished tomorrow.
"Your Majesty will really destroy the people?"
"Well, the news I have received is that His Majesty wants to demote Shimin to the South Vietnam Island. From now on, he will stay on that deserted island for the rest of his life. He will never have to see his face again in this life. He will feel very good if he thinks about it."
Li Yuanji asked, "Will there be something unexpected? Shimin will be left alone?"
"What else can he do? The Chang'an City is surrounded by His Majesty's army. Can he still fly out of Chang'an with wings? After the trial in the palace tomorrow, he will no longer be the King of Qin, but the King of Hainan, haha."
"Brother, congratulations, I'll rest assured in the future!"
Qin Wang Mansion.
Li Shimin sat under the front of the hall with his sword in his arms and sat all night.
He had no sleepiness at all.
Until dawn.
Li Shimin had some simple food and said goodbye to Changsun. Changsun stood there with a few children, watching Li Shimin leave.
At the gate of Qin Mansion.
The eight generals of Changsun Wuji, Hou Junji, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Shili, Gongsun Wuda, Dugu Yanyun, Du Junchuo, Zheng Rentai, and Li Mengchang stood in front of the mansion. They wore brocade robes outside, leather armor hidden inside, and swords hung on their waists.
The Qin Palace was once full of powerful generals, but now, almost all of Qin Cheng Danniu and other generals have been transferred out, and only these few guards and escorts in the palace who are not high-ranking and obviously do not show any evidence.
Looking back at the Qin Prince's Mansion, Li Shimin turned around and swept over the eight generals one by one.
This is a crazy journey, a life-threatening death.
But Li Shimin had no choice but to gain a chance. No matter how dangerous he was, he could only gain a chance.
"Walk!"
In the morning breeze, Li Shimin took the eight generals of the Qin Mansion to Xuanwu Gate!
