Chapter 398 Chapter 409: Li Hao is King
That night, when the night market was at its busiest, there was a plain-looking man in civilian clothes kneeling in the center of Ganlu Hall. Li Shimin looked at this person in the center of the hall and asked majestically, "How is it? Did you find any results?" ?”

"Return to Your Majesty, the results have been found." The man replied, "The two walls between Room No. [-] and Room No. [-] in Taibai Building have been hollowed out, and the surface is covered with a thin layer of wood. If only It's hard to see with the eyes."

"Crack!" The brush in Li Shimin's hand was suddenly broken.

I saw Li Shimin stand up slowly, his eyes were fierce as if he wanted to eat people, he gritted his teeth and said, "Li Hao, how dare you bully me like this!"

Li Hao was sleeping at home, when suddenly Wang San came to report that someone from the palace had announced the decree, Li Hao got up in a hurry, dressed neatly and came out to receive the decree, the content of the decree was very simple: "Li Hao, Marquis of Lantian County, immediately enter the palace to face the saint!"

Normally, if Li Shimin summoned him, all he needed was a verbal order, but this time the imperial decree was issued, and Li Hao felt a faint sense of uneasiness, so he went to Chang'an with the decree team, and entered the Taiji Palace to face the saint.

When Li Hao entered the Ganlu Hall, he found that there was only Li Shimin sitting on a high seat in the hall, there were no attendants, no maids, and there were only the two of them in the hall. Li Hao felt more and more uneasy.

"My subject, Li Hao, sees the emperor!" Li Hao stood in the center of the hall and saluted.

Li Shimin didn't answer, let alone excuse him. Li Hao had no choice but to keep saluting like this. His mind was full of thoughts. Looking at Li Shimin's attitude, he had already guessed that his plan might have been exposed. To be honest, at this moment He was a little nervous.

While being nervous, he could only sigh secretly. Although his plan was really good, as long as he meets a smart person, it is easy to find the flaw. Li Hao knows it without thinking, it must be Changsun Wuji who discovered the flaw, after all Changsun Wuji is a well-known old fox, and it is not so easy to deceive him.

After a long time, Li Shimin finally opened his mouth coldly, and the moment he opened his mouth, he reprimanded: "Li Hao, how dare you bully me like this!"

Li Hao pretended to be calm and said, "Why did Your Majesty say that? I am in a panic."

"You're so confused!" Li Shimin swears unexpectedly. It can be seen that he is really angry. He pointed at Li Hao and asked loudly, "I ask you, did you arrange the conversation between the two people I heard in your restaurant?" of!"

Li Hao raised his head to look at Li Shimin, the two looked at each other, what Li Shimin saw in his eyes was calmness, yes, it was calmness, Li Hao was going to have a showdown.

Sure enough, Li Hao nodded and said: "Go back to Your Majesty, it was arranged by the minister."

Hearing Li Hao's confession, Li Shimin's lungs exploded. He thought that Li Hao was a trustworthy courtier, and he wanted to tell Li Hao a good story about a monarch and minister. He also felt guilty for Li Hao's reward. In order to get Li Hao's portrait into the Lingyan Pavilion, he turned his face against the officials several times...

But in the end he found out that Li Hao had lied to himself, if it was a trivial matter, it would be fine, but he actually lied to himself about the establishment of the reserve, that was his backlash!
"How dare you lie to me!" Li Shimin gritted his teeth and stared, his eyes seemed to devour someone.

Li Hao shook his head: "Your Majesty, I did not lie to you."

"You still said you didn't lie to me!" Li Shimin picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at Li Hao. Li Hao reached out to catch the inkstone, making his hands full of ink. Put it on the ground, and then wiped your hand on the official robe. The official robe that was originally clean became a mess in an instant.

Li Shimin saw that he wiped his hands with the official robe, pointed at him, and shouted loudly: "How dare you wipe your hands with the official robe! Believe it or not, I chopped off your hand immediately!"

Li Hao smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, after tonight, I am afraid that the official robe of the minister is useless. I am afraid that this official of the minister has done his best. Now that the minister can still talk to the majesty, if there is any doubt in your majesty's heart?" , even if you ask, I will definitely know everything, and there is absolutely no lie."

"Okay! I'm asking you!" Li Shimin tried to control his anger and asked, "I went to your house in the middle of the night last time and asked you some questions. Now you answer me again!"

"Yes." Li Hao nodded and said, "All the questions His Majesty asked last time, there was only one question, and I answered a lie. For other questions, I still answered the same as last time, without changing a single word."

"which one?"

Li Haodao: "Your Majesty asked me, how about letting King Jin be the crown prince? My answer now is that King Jin is the best candidate for the crown prince, because King Jin is upright, eager to learn, benevolent and filial, good at accepting advice, and loves the people. It is the wind of the father."

"Don't you want to flatter me!" Li Shimin snorted coldly with staring eyes. "At that time, I asked you why you accepted childish slaves as students. How dare you say that you have no selfish intentions!"

Li Haodao: "Your Majesty, I am dedicated to serving the country and the people, and I have absolutely no selfish intentions. The answer I gave is the truth. The reason why I chose King Jin is because Your Majesty has repeatedly asked me about the establishment of the heir. I have also considered it." For a long time, when I was marching outside, I kept thinking in my heart, and when I returned to Chang'an, I had already made a decision in my heart, and I felt that King Jin is the best candidate for the crown prince."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and stared at Li Hao: "So you deceive me with such shameful and despicable means? You really let me down!"

Li Hao cupped his hands apologetically and said: "The method of the minister is really disgraceful, but what the two said is exactly what I want to remonstrate with your majesty, but because it involves the scandal of the Tian family, it is inconvenient for me to remonstrate in person, so I just If it can be changed to this method, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

It has to be said that Li Hao is really eloquent, and he can still find such an excuse for such a thing. If Changsun Wuji was present, he would definitely fall in love with him.

Li Hao's reason is so good that even Li Shimin's anger was greatly reduced after hearing it. Indeed, how can the princes' murder be said casually, so Li Hao changed a more special way, but deception is deception, and Li Shimin is still very angry. Angry, he pointed at Li Hao and asked, "Tell me, how should I punish you?"

Li Haodao: "I know that the crime of deceiving the emperor is serious. If your majesty punishes you, I will never complain."

"Do you think that I will let you go if you retreat like this?" Li Shimin snorted coldly, "I wanted to make you my confidant, but I originally planned to let you assist Zhier after a hundred years. Thinking of how dare you deceive me, you are so bold, how dare I use you!"

Li Hao sighed secretly when he heard the words. It seems that all the trust gained with countless great achievements will be exhausted this time, but it doesn't matter, Li Shimin is still willing to give himself a chance to explain, which means that the punishment will not be too heavy, at least he will not kill him. Own.

Li Shimin suddenly threw a map on the dragon case to Li Hao, and said loudly: "I don't want to see you again from now on, you choose a place, and don't come back when you go."

Li Hao reached out to take it, and found that it was the map he had given to Li Shimin at the last court meeting. He understood that Li Shimin was planning to deploy him.

Li Hao slowly unfolded the map, and when he saw a place, his heart suddenly moved, and he was secretly pleasantly surprised, hehe, it seems that deployment is not a bad thing, although it is far away from the power center of the court, but it gave him a chance to make up for the development of the knife , can develop and strengthen oneself well.

So he put away the map and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have committed a serious crime this time, so please assign me to Qiongnan!"

Li Shimin was surprised when he heard the words, squinted his eyes, and said, "Qiongnan is a land of poor mountains and bad waters, even worse than Tingzhou, where it is equivalent to distribution, have you thought about it?"

"I've made up my mind." Li Hao nodded solemnly, "I'm going to Qiongnan."

Qiongnan is the Hainan Island of later generations. Hainan Island is divided into Qiongnan, Qiongzhong and Qiongbei. However, in the Tang Dynasty, the entire Hainan Island was called Qiongnan. There are nearly 10 people, but there are only [-] people in Qiongnan, which is too small. It is currently in a sparsely populated state. Except for the three prefectural cities, Qiongnan is in a state of poor mountains and bad waters that have not yet been opened. , there is no way, the resources are too scarce, the population is too small, and there is a lack of manpower and material resources, so it is difficult to develop. Moreover, the Qiongnan area belongs to the tropics, and the mountains and forests belong to the tropical rainforest or semi-tropical rainforest. There are many poisonous snakes, venomous insects, and beasts. It is worse than the desert, and one day he might be bitten by some poisonous insect or snake, and he would die. No wonder Li Shimin was surprised when Li Hao said he was going to Qiongnan.

However, Li Hao has his own plan. After going to Qiongnan, he can carry out his plan safely. He has many big actions that cannot be seen in the light, and can only be carried out in a deserted place, and there are not many other things in Qiongnan. There are many barren mountains and mountains.

As for Chang'an, Li Zhi has already become the prince. It can be said that the overall situation has been settled. With Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, and Qin Qiong sitting here, he doesn't have to worry about it. Contact by letter and pay attention to every move of the DPRK and China, which is equivalent to retreating behind the scenes.

Li Shimin suspected that Li Hao was making progress by retreating and playing tricks with him, so he snorted coldly: "I will do what you wish, let you Qiongnan!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hao bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard the words. He thought that Li Hao would talk nonsense again, but he didn't expect that Li Hao was not playing tricks. Looking at him, it seemed that he really wanted to go to Qiongnan. Li Shimin suddenly regretted it. Li Hao is a talent, even though he was quite disappointed with him this time, he still didn't want Li Hao to go to such a poor place, but now that the golden mouth is open and the water is hard to recover, what else can he say.

When Li Hao came out of Taiji Palace, he was a little excited. He was about to go to Hainan. Once he went there, he could flex his muscles and do whatever he wanted. , but helped labor and capital.

The next day at the small court meeting, Li Hao came again. Seeing Li Hao coming to attend the court meeting, all the officials were nervous for a while. Li Hao, who never attended the court meeting for nothing important, why did he come again this time? Could it be that the emperor wanted to reward him?Or is it the emperor still determined to let Li Hao's portrait enter the Lingyan Pavilion?

When it was dawn, all the ministers entered the Hall of Liangyi, and after waiting for a long time, Li Shimin came.

After the court meeting began, Li Shimin spoke first. The first thing in today's court meeting was to reward Li Hao. He drew up a new reward for the ministers to discuss.

The ministers exchanged glances, the meaning was simple, no matter how Li Shimin wanted to reward Li Hao, they would all oppose it.

Next, Li Shimin said: "I want to reward Li Hao, Jin Li Haojue King of Qiongnan County."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials were taken aback for a moment, and then they looked at each other in blank dismay, Li Hao named king?King Qiongnan County?Qiong Nanye, it's equivalent to exile, and you can't leave the fief without an oracle, which is equivalent to going to jail, object or not?
　Li Hao has been crowned king. I think the result of such a crowning is the most realistic and feasible. The promotion is actually demoted, and the reward is actually punished. What do you think? Please leave your opinions. Finally, please vote, the last day of this month It's over, roll around and beg for tickets, if you have a reward, just throw a few rewards.
