bastard seizes tang

Chapter 727 Zhang Liang
If this matter started in the court first, it would not be difficult to find out the news, but the rumors about Li Ke and the East Palace were all heard from the people, so it is not easy to find out the clues or even find out the person behind it up.

However, Li Ke didn't care much about whether Chang Tu could find out who was behind it, because Li Ke already had his own judgment.

After this incident, Li Shimin and Li Ke lost all interest in going to Zhuquemen again, Li Shimin led the crowd to disperse, and then went back to their homes.

"Brother, brother." Li Ke came out of the Ganlu Hall and arrived at Zhu Ming Gate. He was walking back to the East Palace when Li Yin trotted up.

Li Ke heard Li Yin's voice behind him, stopped in his tracks, and waited for Li Yin to come.

"Brother walked so fast, I almost missed it." Li Min walked to Li Ke's side, held Li Ke's arm, and panted to Li Ke.

Li Ke is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, even if he is also the prince, others can't support Li Ke's arm in public.

Li Yin is Li Ke's direct brother. Li Ke watched him grow up since he was a child, and even grew up in the same bed with Li Ke. He has always been closest to Li Ke, so Li Ke won't feel that way. The slightest discomfort, on the contrary seemed intimate.

Li Ke supported Li Min, patted Li Min on the back, and said with a smile, "Brother Min, you are in your prime, why are you so out of breath after walking these roads. Could it be that Brother Wei is not by your side, You are not good at martial arts, it seems that there is no war in the north, and you, the governor of Xiazhou, are enjoying peace with singing and dancing, and you are too comfortable."

Because of Li Ke's interest in martial arts, Li Yin also practiced martial arts when he was young. Although he is not as good as Li Ke, he is also good at bow and horse, and his physical strength should be good, so Li Ke said this.

Li Min took a breath, and said to Li Ke: "Brother said it lightly, it's been two miles from Ganlu Hall to here, I trotted all the way to catch up, I'm not as easy as brother, I was born in the army."

Li Ke asked, "Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

Li Yin said: "Just now I saw brother in the hall and seemed to be thinking about it. I was worried about brother, so I came to see."

Li Ke looked at Li Yin's serious face, patted Li Yin on the shoulder, and said with emotion: "I went to Xiazhou for a few years, and the young man who only played around behind Brother Wei actually shared his worries for Brother Wei." gone."

What Li Min said just now in the Ganlu Palace is very true. The rumor that Li Ke's son-in-law had an affair with Li Ke and Wu Shun was a trap laid one after another, which also made Li Ke speculate about the person behind this matter.

Li Yin said: "Brother, I was joking. I'm just worried about you, so I want to ask you one more question. I see that your appearance is different just now, but I thought of the people behind the scenes."

Li Ke was not in a hurry to answer him, but instead asked with some thoughtfulness, "Maybe you can guess who it is?"

Li Yin thought for a while, and replied: "If it was something else, I would think that the fourth brother is the most suspected, but the matter of elder brother's eldest son is quite sensitive, and there is no real threat to elder brother's reserve, I think The fourth brother will not be so stupid and make a fuss about this matter."

Making a fuss about Li Ke's son-in-law is indeed a threat to Li Ke himself and even the entire East Palace, but in essence it will not shake Li Ke's reserve position, and what Li Tai likes is Li Ke's reserve position. Who is Li Ke's eldest son has nothing to do with Li Tai, and he doesn't even care.

Li Ke nodded and said: "That's right, the fourth brother is a smart person, he won't do such things."

Li Yin saw that Li Ke agreed with his words, so he went on to say: "Could it be the Guanlong Clan behind this matter? My brother went to the northwest, and he started the martial arts again, which dealt a great blow to the Guanlong Clan, and the children of these Clans And the most important thing is the theory of concubine and concubine, so naturally I like to make fuss about these things."

What Li Yin said made sense. Li Ke moved the interests of the people in the Guanlong Clan. Naturally, they were also extremely dissatisfied with Li Ke. The dispute between the sons and daughters was a common tactic used by their clansmen, and this time they used it to deal with Li Ke. It's not impossible either.

Li Ke said: "The Guanlong clan has always been at odds with Brother Wei. They are against Brother Wei. It is not impossible for them to cause trouble for Brother Wei. This is also one of my conjectures, but there is another possibility in my heart that may be even bigger. guess."

"I don't know who it is?" Li Yin asked.

Li Ke said: "Father taking pills is not good for your body. A few days ago, I had a dispute with someone because of father taking pills."

As soon as Li Kezhi's words came out, Li Yin immediately guessed who Li Ke was referring to, and Li Yin said, "It's Cheng Gongying?"

Li Ke nodded and said: "That's right, I had a dispute with Cheng Gongying, and I tripped him up in front of my father, maybe he hated me because of it."

Li Min slapped his legs and said: "Brother is the crown prince. If you are dissatisfied with Cheng Gongying's actions, you can send someone to impeach him. If it doesn't work, I can do it for you. Brother, why bother with such villains, so as not to hurt yourself .”

Li Ke listened to Li Yin's words, and asked curiously: "Your words are very steady, but you also know Cheng Gongying?"

Li Min said: "He is a Taoist priest invited by the emperor, and the whole Chang'an is full of smog, how could I not know? I discussed this matter with Liu Fu when I was in Xiazhou, and Liu Fu was also quite angry about this matter."

The Liu Fu Li Yin was talking about was the Prince of Liang Fu Liu Ji whom Li Ke specially selected for him. Liu Ji was capable of serving as prime minister, so how could he fail to see through this matter with his ability.

Li Ke asked, "What did Liu Ji say?"

Li Yin saw that there was no one else around him, and he absolutely trusted Li Ke, so he whispered: "Liu Fu's temper is a bit more straightforward, saying that what the father is not a sage is not as wise as before."

Liu Jie is a foreign minister, and his words are also the thoughts of many foreign ministers. Li Shimin's behavior in the past can be regarded as a sage king through the ages, but this time, the good faith magician, taking the elixir, really failed the sage of the past.

Li Ke sighed and said: "Although what Liu Ji said is a little blunt, it is also the truth. It is just that my brother is the crown prince, and there are some things that are really inconvenient to talk about. I can only make sidelines, but even so, I am still targeted by the villain. gone."

Li Yin said: "Then how brother is going to deal with this matter will inevitably cause a rift between brother and emperor. This matter is not suitable for brother to come forward in person, but I have to make a statement and ask father to kill the treacherous evil."

Li Ke said: "I just praised you for your prudence, why are you so reckless again? My father is ill and I want to live a long life. Now Cheng Gongying has my father's trust. If I stay away from you, what's the point of you even playing him?" Use it, I'm afraid it will hurt yourself in the end."

Li Yin said: "Then what should we do? Is it possible that he slandered my brother so much, and this matter can't be done."

Li Ke said: "Of course not. He has the trust of his father right now, so he can't be easily moved. If he is to be moved, he must first lose his father's favor."

Li Yin looked at Li Ke's confident appearance, and knew that Li Ke had already planned, so he asked: "Brother, I have a plan."

Li Ke didn't directly reply to Li Yin's words, but first asked: "When will you return to Xiazhou?"

Li Yin didn't know what Li Ke meant, but he replied truthfully, "I'll be back in the future."

Li Ke said: "When you return to Xiazhou, do something for me."

Li Yin replied straightly: "Brother, just give orders, and my younger brother will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Li Ke said with a smile: "If you are really going through fire and water, how can I let you go? I want you to check someone in Xiazhou."

"Who?" Li Yan asked puzzled.

Li Kedao: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Zhang Liang, the former governor of Xiazhou."
