Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 274 The northern foot of Lishan Mountain, the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor

"You suspect it's the King of Shu?!"

Li Shimin's voice was cold and murderous.

He looked at Fang Yuan, and didn't know whether it was Fang Yuan with killing intent or Li Ke.

"Your Majesty misunderstood."

"I'm just telling what I know. I don't doubt the King of Shu at all, and I dare not doubt the King of Shu."

Fang Yuan lowered his head slightly, not looking at Li Shimin.

The reason why I chose to tell Li Shimin was to make Li Shimin headache and busy.

Since the firecracker incident, the relationship between himself and the emperor has been somewhat broken, and it is no longer as usual.

Under such circumstances, only when bigger and more troublesome things happen, Li Shimin will have no time to pay attention to himself.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Shimin to kill himself because of this incident, at most, the rupture will be even bigger.

"You go down."

Li Shimin took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and waved his hands.

"I retire!"

Fang Yuan heaved a sigh of relief and stepped back.

Li Shimin couldn't hold back his anger anymore, kicked over the desk in front of him, and roared to the sky.

He was angry, and what was angry was that Li Ke was so stupid that he would commit the act of cutting himself off from the foundation of the royal family.

For such a long time, he has turned a blind eye to Li Ke and Li Chengqian's open and secret struggle.

But now, Li Ke has completely violated his bottom line. He doesn't need such a prince, nor does the court.

"Come on, pass on Li Ke!"

Li Shimin roared and shouted.

He didn't want to guess about this kind of thing, so he asked directly.

Because guessing is useless, it will only make yourself more irritable.

It is not Li Ke, there is a high probability that he can ask the situation.

After all, Cheng Yaojin has been ordered to meet the captured bandits.

If Li Ke dared to lie, he would end up in a worse situation after the result of the forced interrogation.

Not long after, Li Ke came, but he didn't come alone, but escorted Yang Yuzhi.

As soon as he saw Li Shimin, Li Ke knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

After seeing this scene, the anger in Li Shimin's heart disappeared a lot.

"Father, my son didn't know about the hijacking of food and grass in advance!"

"It's all Yang Yuzhi and Shouchun who made their own decisions and sent someone to kidnap them!"

Li Ke yelled in panic.

After learning that Fang Yuan entered the palace, Li Ke thought about countermeasures.

Later, when the emperor wanted to get rid of the maids and eunuchs, Li Ke guessed that Fang Yuan would inform them.

So he immediately pressed Yang Yuzhi to see the emperor, wanting to get rid of the matter.

It's a pity that when someone was sent to forcefully invite the Shouchun county lord, the Shouchun county lord disappeared.

After saying that, Li Shimin looked at Yang Yuzhi who was tied up with a deadly look.

"Your Majesty, you are wronged, you are wronged!"

"Even if I have the guts, I wouldn't dare to hijack food and grass."

"It was all ordered by His Royal Highness the King of Shu. He harbored hatred for Fang Yuan and wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on Fang Yuan."

Yang Yuzhi cried out loudly.

The expression of fear on his face grew stronger.

He was really more frightened than Li Ke, and more worried that Li Shimin would kill him.

In any case, Li Ke is Li Shimin's son, and a tiger's poison does not eat its own children. Li Shimin would not kill Li Ke even because of his reputation.

But I am different, there is absolutely no pressure to kill myself, and I will even be happy to kill myself, to satisfy the anger of the people or to calm the hatred in my heart.

But fortunately, his wife was not arrested, so if he refused to admit it and forcibly instructed Li Ke, he might still be able to save his life.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes, and his gaze shifted from Yang Yuzhi to Li Ke.

"Father, my son is naturally not stupid enough to cut off the foundation of my Great Tang."

"Furthermore, my son and Fang Yuan are at odds, but it is absolutely necessary to take action on this matter."

"As a prince, there are too many ways to make things difficult for Fang Yuan, there is absolutely no need to do so."

Li Ke was furious in his heart.

She never expected to be bitten back by Yang Yuzhi today.

A dog who was so obedient in the past will have a day of rebellion against its master today, it really deserves to die.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Even if I have the courage to do so, I wouldn't dare to do such a rebellious thing."

"The one-eyed Qiao Rongqi who was sent by the minister used to be the guard of His Highness the King of Shu. He retired due to injury and has been working for His Highness the King of Shu. If it wasn't for the authorization of the King of Shu, how could the minister be able to mobilize him?"

Yang Yuzhi cried and said.

His tears and nose dripped together, looking extremely pitiful.

"Father, there are really no sons."

"Although Qiao Rongqi was the son's former guard, after leaving the palace, he was managed by Yang Yuzhi."

Li Ke was shocked and cried out.

Such a good Yang Yuzhi, such a good Shouchun county magistrate, they had already thought about it.

Using my previous guards, even if I didn't instigate it, I can't get rid of it.

Coupled with Yang Yu's insistence, now that he doesn't know where Shouchun County Lord is, it's hard to clean up even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"His Majesty."

Yang Yuzhi wanted to continue correcting Li Ke, but was interrupted.

"To shut up!"

"Put Yang Yuzhi into the sky prison and torture him."

"Put Li Ke under house arrest in the Palace of the King of Shu, send someone to watch him, and not allow him to go out."

Li Shimin scolded.

You say what I say, I don't know who to listen to.

Then check carefully to see who is real and who is fake.

Also, the Lord of Shouchun County will also be arrested to thoroughly investigate this matter.

"Father, please give me justice."

Li Ke took a deep breath and said respectfully.

His heart was a little cold because of Li Shimin's attitude.

Obviously, Li Shimin didn't believe in himself or what he said.

Look, what a weak father-son relationship, look, what a ruthless imperial family.

Li Shimin didn't pay attention to the change of Li Ke's mentality, he is now angry.

What Li Ke said was right, and what Yang Yuzhi said was also right.

Without Li Ke's authorization, how dare Yang Yuzhi do that?
Let's see who is telling the truth and who is lying.

Li Ke, who was sent back to the Palace of the King of Shu, drove away all the maids and eunuchs with a black face.

When he returned to the study, he didn't see anyone, and stayed there until night without going out or lighting a lamp.

Although the emperor sent people to stare at Li Ke, they didn't dare to open the door and really stare at Li Ke under such circumstances.

After all, he is a prince. Although he is punished by the emperor today, he may return to his honor tomorrow. They are not something they can offend.

As the night was dark, the door and window of Li Ke's study room were quietly opened, and a man in black turned over and entered, and walked in front of Li Ke with ease.

"Your Highness, please tell me."

The man in black said respectfully.

"Any news about Shouchun?"

Li Ke said calmly.

In the dark night, the study room was not lit, and Li Ke's expression could not be seen clearly.

"No, it seems to have disappeared out of thin air."

"His Majesty's people are also looking for her, but they also found nothing."

The man in black reported respectfully.

"Ignore her for now, take a letter from the king to Cui Runyu, and then spread a few news."

Li Ke said in a low voice.

He found a letter from the desk and handed it to the man in black.

Although the study room is dark, it can barely be seen within half a meter.

"This subordinate will do it."

The man in black took the letter and withdrew respectfully.

Leaving from where it came from, the window was closed again.

It's as if the whole scene never happened.

Afterwards, the lights in the study were lit, and Li Ke walked out of the study.

Seeing this, the imperial guards guarding the door breathed a sigh of relief, and saluted Li Ke one after another.

That night, Chang'an City seemed to have nothing happened.

In fact, Li Ke's letter did not reach Cui Runyu until the next day.

"Let the storm come a little harder."

Cui Runyu looked at the letter in front of him and laughed.

A few days later, a piece of news shook Chang'an City.

The treasure of the hidden prince was discovered at the northern foot of Lishan Mountain!
Rumor has it that Prince Yin's treasure is incomparably rich, and if you get a certain amount of it, you will be rich for a lifetime.

The moment the news came out, the entire Tang Dynasty was shaken, and even ordinary people became fanatical.

Someone rushed to the northern foot of Lishan Mountain immediately, wanting to see if there is really a treasure?
The first batch of people who went there were lucky, they were able to pick up gold while walking on the road.

After the news spread, people who didn't believe it also believed it, and more people rushed over.

But the second group of people was unlucky, not only did not pick up the gold, but also lost their lives.

In just a few days, the northern foot of Lishan Mountain has become a dangerous place, and one may lose one's life if one is not careful.

But even so, many ordinary people still flock to it, dazzled by the treasure, and want to get rich.

"Prince Yin's treasure is the property of the imperial court, no one is allowed to approach it!"

The palace has orders soon.

And a 300-man forbidden army galloped out of the palace and headed for the northern foot of Lishan Mountain.

At the beginning, the appearance of the army could act as a deterrent, and the court quickly sent professionals to investigate.

However, one night, the situation changed. Rangers from other places attacked the imperial army at night, causing heavy casualties to the imperial army.

The northern foot of Lishan Mountain is gradually getting out of control. Even if the imperial court has forbidden troops guarding here, it will be difficult to stop people from all over the world from peeping at the treasures, and more people will come.

Chang'an City was relatively stable, but batches of curious people went to check it out, and the treasure was blowing in Chang'an City like a hurricane, affecting everyone.

Among them, Fang Yuan is also included.

Night, Fangfu.

"Fang Yuan, I got news that the treasure of Prince Yin at the northern foot of Mount Li is the treasure of the Mohist family."

The giant sighed.

Although there have been speculations, I still couldn't help but sigh when I learned the truth.

Because if the two are one, it will be much, much more difficult to capture.

Just like it is now, everyone in the world knows that if you try to seize it again, you will definitely lose a lot.

"Do you know who spread the news?"

Li Ke said in a low voice.

Not many people know about the hidden treasure of the prince.

There must be many people who want to monopolize this legendary treasure that is incomparably rich.

But now, it is so surprising that it is known all over the world, and it feels wrong.

"I have already asked Mo Cailing, but I haven't received an answer yet."

The giant shook his head.

Since Fang Yuan saved her last time, Mo Cailing owed Fang Yuan another favor.

"Let everyone grab it, we don't want this treasure."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

He wants the treasure, but is self-aware.

After the Fang family has mastered the printing of money, it will no longer be short of money.

All the money in the world will be printed from Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan is already the God of Wealth.

What's more, the three hundred security guards have already transported the food and have not returned, so they are unable to deal with the problem of the treasure.

"I will restrain the people below."

The giant has exactly this intention.

He really didn't want the treasure.

Just do your research well.

But if Fang Yuan wants, he will help.

"Husband, uncle was transferred by the emperor to guard the northern foot of Mount Li."

Du Miaoyan came to speak at this time.

This is the second time that the imperial court sent troops to the northern foot of Lishan Mountain.

Three hundred for the first time, five hundred for the second time, eight hundred before and after.

There are not many imperial troops in the palace itself, so if you send so many imperial troops, isn't the emperor afraid that the imperial city will be empty?
"Have you left?"

Fang Yuan frowned, said in a deep voice.

It is normal for Du Chuke to be sent there as a general.

But Du Chuke's ability may not be up to the task, and he may be assassinated.

Now the northern foot of Lishan Mountain is in chaos, and the army was difficult to suppress in the past, and would be assassinated by rangers.

More than half of the imperial court's first three hundred imperial troops were killed or injured, and there was no order there.

"Leave in half an hour."

Du Miaoyan said solemnly.

She was also worried about Du Chuke's safety.

"Half an hour."

"Let uncle pay attention to safety, everything is about your own safety, and if something goes wrong, run back."

"In addition, I will write another letter to Mo Cailing, asking her to take care of my uncle or not to assassinate my uncle."

Fang Yuan murmured, said in a deep voice.

Du Chuke is a general of the middle class, so he should be surrounded by experts to protect him.

In this case, the only ones who can assassinate him are the masters of the Deng Ling clan.

"I'm going right now!"

Du Miaoyan nodded solemnly.

"Miaoyan, the main thing is to stay away from the battlefield!"

Fang Yuan called Du Miaoyan to stop, and reminded.

It's not safe to avoid assassination or anything.

Only when you leave the battlefield can you be truly safe.

Although there is a risk of desertion from the battlefield, it is better than an accident.

It hasn't been long since Du Ruhui left, so the emperor shouldn't blame Du Chuke too much.

"I will remind uncle!"

Du Miaoyan nodded heavily.

She understood Fang Yuan's meaning, and also supported Fang Yuan's meaning.

But it is impossible to escape as soon as you arrive, it depends on the situation and opportunity.

What if the imperial court can suppress the rangers and ordinary people?
But these are not considered by Fang Yuan and Du Miaoyan, but by Du Chuke.

Du Miaoyan left.

Du Chuke is gathering troops.

An emergency meeting was held in the Royal Study Room at night.

"I didn't expect that a piece of news would cause people all over the world to go crazy."

Li Shimin looked around at everyone present.

His gaze stayed on Wang Gui for a moment.

Back then, in order to obtain the secret of the hidden crown prince's treasure, Wang Gui was invited back by a high-ranking official.

Before the treasure was actually obtained, such a thing happened, so that the court is now very passive.

This is secondary, the key is to make Li Shimin feel that he has lost money in this transaction.

"Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate for the army to suppress it."

"Now it's not only the underworld forces, but also ordinary people are flocking to it."

"At this time, the imperial court's suppression will only increase casualties, and it is likely to affect the reputation of our imperial court."

Fang Xuanling was the first to speak.

He does not advocate solving problems in a violent way.

"I don't want to use the army to suppress it either."

"But in the current situation, is there a better way?"

Li Shimin said solemnly.

He didn't want to be violent either.

But the emperor's order could no longer restrain them.

If violence is not used, Prince Yin's treasure will be stolen.

"We don't need to suppress it, we just hold on to it."

"Anyone who takes the treasure, we will come back, or some of it."

Fang Xuanling continued.

After the words fell, everyone was taken aback and looked at him in surprise.
