bastard seizes tang

Chapter 674

With the eldest grandson Wuji seeking peace, Wei Wang Li Tai left the capital, and the Guanlongmen Clan seemed rare and quiet because of the martial arts. A matter that Li Ke has always kept in mind can finally see hope. This matter is Li Ke's biological mother. Concubine Yang's conferred matter.

Empress Changsun has passed away for some years, and the queen has been vacant for a long time, so she should have a new queen.If there is a new queen, then the noble concubine Yang is the only candidate without dispute, not only because the noble concubine is the head of the four concubines, it is not wrong to have a vacant noble concubine succeeding, but also because Yang Concubine is the biological mother of the prince Li Ke, except She, who else can seal the empress?

Concubine Yang's conferment was the general trend. During the period, some people in the court also mentioned this matter in order to please Li Ke, but because of the lack of voice, it was finally dismissed.

In fact, it is difficult to say that Concubine Yang is a queen, and it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult. Concubine Yang is enough to be a queen regardless of her status, qualifications, reputation, or ability. No one in the court will object. The only difficulty is Li Shimin. Empress, without Li Shimin's permission, it is absolutely impossible, and Li Shimin and Empress Changsun's childhood sweethearts have a deeper affection. If you want to concubine Yang, it depends on Li Shimin's intentions.

It might be inappropriate to rashly mention the queen conferment, and it is inconvenient for Li Ke himself to make a hasty move. To confer concubine Yang, he must find an excellent time to devote all his efforts to ensure success in one fell swoop. Otherwise, the procrastination will be longer, and it will be more difficult, and Li Ke has finally waited for this opportunity, and it is Li Ke's fifth younger brother, Qi Wang Li You, who gave Li Ke this opportunity.

Qi Wang Li You, mother Yinde Concubine, Yin Concubine is the daughter of the Yin Shishi who stayed behind in Xijing in the Sui Dynasty. In the past when the Tang army broke Chang'an, the Yin family was full of criminals. She was beautiful, and was favored by Li Shimin, so she was admitted to the Tiance Mansion, and later named a concubine of virtue, one of the four concubines.

The Yin family and Li Tangke have a blood feud. Li Zhiyun, the fifth son of Li Yuan, was killed by the Yin Shishi. When the Yin Shishi was stubbornly defending Chang'an, he even dug the grave of the Li family's ancestors and forged a big feud. Li Shimin loves her quite a lot, but she is never arrogant and indulgent. On the contrary, she acts cautiously and has very low self-control. She is very popular in the harem.

But although Concubine Yin acts cautiously, she has an ambitious prince and an arrogant elder brother.

Concubine Yin's younger brother is named Yin Hongzhi, who is a dandy of the family. Although he can't be said to be ignorant, he is not a virtuous person. Yushi Zhongcheng, after his nephew Qi Wang Li You's official Qizhou, changed his worship to Qizhou Governor Shi, and went to Qizhou to assist Li You.

A Li You who was ambitious and not a good person, coupled with an equally arrogant Yin Hongzhi, made a big commotion in Qizhou.

Li You worshiped the governor of Qizhou, and also the governor of Qizhou, and supervised the military forces of Qi, Qing, Lai, Mi and other five continents. With such honor, it can be regarded as a weight in Qizhou, and then add that Qizhou is high and the emperor is far away. However, under the instigation of Yin Hongzhi and others, Li You actually developed a heart of treason.

In terms of background, Li You was inferior to the three sons of Empress Changsun; in terms of talent, Li You was not only inferior to Li Ke, but even worse than Li Tai, and even less famous and accomplished.

The only thing he can count on is his guts. Even in such a useless situation, he can still covet the Tang Dynasty's throne, and he wants to follow the path of military power to seek the country.

Qi Wang Li You was bewitched by his uncle Yin Hongzhi, and ordered his cronies Zan Junmo and Yan Hongliang to privately raise dead men, but was found out by Wei Wenzhen, the Dianjun of Qi Wang's family affairs office, and he reported to Li Shimin to impeach the matter.

Li You knew that his matter of raising dead soldiers had failed, so he played a report for Wei Wenzhen, worried that Li Shimin would convict him, and was terrified in his heart. Under Yin Hongzhi's instigation, he ordered Yan Hongliang to lead twenty cavalry to shoot and kill Wei Wenzhen, and then raised his troops to rebel.

In March of the 17th year of Zhenguan, Li You enlisted men aged 15 and above in Qizhou city to join the army, and privately named Zan Junmo and Yan Hongliang as King Tuoxi and King Tuodong.

In the Shandong generation, Li Ke's news was not well-informed, at least not as fast as Li Shimin's Baibali. Li You rebelled, and the local government sent letters to the palace as quickly as possible.

When Li Ke was summoned by Li Shimin to meet him in the palace, Li Ke didn't know what happened at first. The look also holds a heart.

"My son, Li Ke, pays homage to his father." Li Ke stood in the hall and bowed to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin raised his hand, sat down with Li Ke, then handed the report in his hand to Li Ke, and said to Li Ke: "The urgent document from Shandong, let's have a look."

"Promise." Hearing this, Li Ke didn't know what it was, took the document handed over by Li Shimin, and read it.

Although Li You was not Li Ke's enemy, and Li Ke never really took him seriously, Li Ke still knew a little about Li You.

Li You likes to hunt, has a willful and perverse temperament, and often makes friends with young people, plus Li Ke's original familiarity with Li You, Li You will rebel, Li Ke is somewhat psychologically prepared.

However, although Li Ke was not too surprised by Li You's rebellion, but in front of Li Shimin, his brother's rebellion, Li Ke did not behave too plainly. He wrinkled, and said to Li Shimin with an expression of disbelief: "Although Wu Lang was eager to play around in the past and acted a little perversely, how could he do such a thing without a king and a father?"

Li Shimin asked in a deep voice, "What do you think of this matter?"

Li Ke did not answer Li Shimin's words directly, but held a memorial in his hand and asked Li Shimin: "Has the father verified this matter?"

Li Shimin said: "Slandering the prince for treason is the crime of the Yi tribes. The local government dare not report it falsely. There will be no falsehood."

Li Ke sighed and said: "Wulang's sudden incident is really troublesome."

Li Shimin asked puzzledly: "Ke'er, you have been in the army for many years, and you are also a famous commander in China. Many people in the court have praised you. With your ability, can Li You's rebellion be embarrassing for you?"

Li You's talents are ordinary, and he has no generals under his command, let alone elite soldiers. It should not be difficult to put down Li You's chaos with Li Ke's ability, but why did Li Ke commit a crime instead?
Li Shimin couldn't help but find it strange that it was difficult.

Li Ke explained: "Qizhou is not a frontier state, and Wulang is not a general. How can a group of pigs and dogs under his command get things done? Wulang conspired to rebel, but the disease of scabies, I think the tricky thing is to decide. How should I deal with Goro after that?"

Li Ke's words just entered Li Shimin's heart. In Li Shimin's eyes, Li You's rebellion is no different from child's play, but the rumors can be determined. What really made Li Shimin so angry, the dilemma is that the rebellion is actually Li You's own son. .

Li Shimin then asked Li Ke: "Then according to your opinion, how should we deal with Li You?"

Li Ke thought for a while, and replied: "It's hard for me to decide. If Wulang is severely punished according to the law, I will feel sorry for the pain of brothers and sisters. But if I don't punish severely according to the law, the matter of my elder brother is the first. This is the case again. I'm afraid in the future." The clan is in trouble."

Li Shimin's thoughts are actually similar to Li Ke's. Li You is Li Shimin's son, and Li Shimin would not bear to kill Li You, but if he doesn't kill him, then what's the point of everyone in the clan and princes following suit?
Li Shimin thought carefully for a moment, and then said: "It's better to settle the chaos first, and leave Li You's life and death to the court."
