The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2143 Visitors from Wannian County

Xuanwu Gate is an indelible stain on Li Tang's royal family. It is hated by His Majesty Li Er all his life, and also hated by Li Chengqian.

Why do you say that?Back then, when Emperor Gaozu had not raised his troops, the relationship between His Majesty Li Er and the three brothers was still very good. At that time, when their brothers had not turned against each other, Li Chengqian would often go to his uncle's house to find his cousins ​​together. Playing around, the feelings between children are also very pure.

But later on, all the changes were due to power.

The brothers turned against each other.

That day, Li Chengqian was trapped in the mansion by Empress Changsun. After he knew about this, his former cousins ​​and playmates who played with him all day had already been executed by his father.

Not one left.

Regardless of whether he is the emperor or not, if his own sons kill each other, which father can be happy?
Li Chengqian sighed.

After all, a tiger's poison does not eat its children, even though he knew in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with Li Xiang, but could he really get down to it and kill Li Xiang?

No.

"Since we are leaving tomorrow, let's go back and clean up. Maybe, when you really should be a king, you should go to the fiefdom. In the end, I was selfish and kept you in Chang'an City for several years. " Li Chengqian said: "You are a prince. I hope that you can take on the responsibilities as a prince in the fiefdom. You also know the rules that a prince must abide by. You can't go back to Chang'an without an edict. You go Bar."

At the end, Li Chengqian's voice was a little tired, and he waved his hand, indicating that Li Xiang could step back.

For the sake of saying everything, the father and son both understood clearly.

Li Chengqian knew that this matter was done by Li Xiang, and Li Xiang wanted to give it a try before leaving, but failed.

If it succeeds, Li Jue will die in the hands of assassins. If the court wants to establish a crown prince, it can only establish Li Xiang at present. Li Jue's accident is just the beginning, and if Li Xiang wants to keep his position, he must He will attack again, and attack other princes in the palace who have not grown up.

As for Li Xiang, he also understood in his heart that his father knew what he had done, but his father couldn't bear to kill himself. According to his father's intentions, if he left Chang'an this time, he might not have the opportunity to return in the future. Chang'an City.

Li Xiang left the Xuanzheng Hall and the palace in a daze, as if he had lost his soul.

The subordinate who left the Yue Palace has no news at all since the incident happened, and it is estimated that there will be no news at all.

Seeing Li Xiang leave the Xuanzheng Hall, Li Chengqian also felt tired for a while, but tiredness is tiredness, and there are still things to do.

"Lin'an!" Li Chengqian called out loudly.

Lin'an hurried in from outside the hall.

"His Majesty."

"Watch Baiqisi, look at him." Li Chengqian said: "If there is anything out of the ordinary, take it back to Chang'an."

"Yes." Lin'an replied.

Li Chengqian still gave his son a chance, but the chance is only once. He will not indulge Li Xiang like this all the time and let him do nothing. Li Xiang will not be let go.

"In addition, the people from the Baiqi Division collected the latest news about Chang'an City, including the vicinity of Chang'an City. I want to know." Li Chengqian said.

"Yes." Lin'an responded and left.

He did let Li Xiang go, but there are still many things that need to be dealt with and the aftermath needs to be dealt with.

For example, the reason why he knew about this matter was that Baiqisi had found out about it. On the day when the case happened, he ordered the people from Dali Temple to investigate it. If Di Renjie really found out the truth of this case , Li Xiang was found out, how to smooth things over?

And Jinyang and Qi Guogong, how should they explain?

In this assassination, Li Jue was indeed unscathed, but Qi Guogong, he was seriously injured, so if he doesn't give an explanation, can this be done?

Li Chengqian reached out and rubbed his forehead.

It is not a simple matter to protect one's own son. Not only does one need to explain this matter to the foreign ministers, but also how to tell her in the harem, the queen's side.

Li Jue was a piece of flesh that fell from her body, he was his own son, but Li Xiang was not. If he told her the truth, it would definitely not work.

And something that worried Li Chengqian was happening.

Three strangers came from Wannian County. After arriving in Wannian County, they went straight to the government office. As soon as they reached the gate of the government office, they were stopped by someone.

Now the government offices in Wannian County are heavily guarded, comparable to those in the imperial palace, because Duke Qi is still recuperating in the government offices in Wannian County.

And the common people also heard about this incident, saying that a group of daring assassins armed with weapons attacked the government office, intending to assassinate King E Li Jue, but they all died in the government office.

Now the people of Wannian County, whether it is day or night, are panic-stricken and don't dare to go out. Suddenly, the streets are quite depressed.

The guards in the government office were injured. This is a real thing, and everyone has seen it. During this period of time, there are no guards patrolling the streets, and there are only cold-faced guards who guard the gates of the government office. Do you have confidence?

"Wannian county government office is an important place, and idlers are not allowed to enter without permission. If you report a crime, please go to the front door of the government office next door." The guard guarding the gate said coldly.

The master's family was injured, and their faces were dull. Although they did not participate in this matter, they were the guards of the Xuan family after all. They were not present for the previous matter, but since the subsequent matter was left to them , they have to take it seriously.

What's more, the host's family treats them very well on weekdays. When the host's family is in trouble, it's time for them to work hard.

What they guard is the courtyard of the government office, and the place where ordinary people want to report the case is the lobby of the government office. There is a heavy drum outside the door of the lobby. If there is any unjust case, just beat the drum.

"Brother, we are not here to report the case, we are here to investigate the case. Duke Qi is also my mentor." Di Renjie stepped forward and said, "Di Renjie is at Xia Dali Temple."

After Di Renjie finished speaking, he took out a signboard of Dali Temple from his waist and handed it to the guard in front of the door.

"I came to Wannian County to investigate the case of my mentor's assassination according to His Majesty's order. Now, I want to go in and see my mentor. I don't know if it is possible."

"So it's Lord Di." After looking at the waist card, the guard at the door cupped his hands towards Di Renjie: "It's okay to go in, but the master hasn't woken up yet."

"The county magistrate is inside?" Di Renjie asked.

"Yes, Master Di, please." The guards invited Di Renjie and the three of them into the mansion's courtyard.
