Chapter 630: Chang'an needs to be in chaos

Li Xian looked at Wan Yulou's seemingly innocent face, waved his hands and said, "It took me so much effort to get you into the mansion, how can I do it if I don't give you a good beating? The news that you were arrested by me must have reached Li Yuan's ears, if you come in and go out properly, do you think it's normal?"

He sat down on the chair, with a displeased expression on his face, and said: "Don't talk about anything else, I decided to bring my aunt into the East Palace without permission. I didn't know about such a big thing until after the fact..."

Wan Yulou knew that there was no point in explaining it, but he still told the story: "I negotiated with Wu Bushan when I was in Japan. I took Xuanwuwei's people to arrest me. I said that I encountered an ambush. At worst, I will die." It is not difficult for Li Jiancheng to hide this matter from the past, but Li Jiancheng would not dare to bring this matter to the public no matter what. Wu Bushan took her to find a way to leave the city and rush back to Juyeze. Do it. Even if our secret agents kill a few of Li Jiancheng's subordinates, as long as Li Jiancheng can't catch anyone, he can only bear it."

"But when I arrive at Wuyan Nunnery, if I want to gain the trust of her old man, I must disclose my identity... Only after revealing the identity of the secret agent, the old man forced me to reveal all my plans. Her old man then It’s not good to say that, since you are lurking by Li Jiancheng’s side, if you want to gain his trust, you need to make some contributions anyway, otherwise how can you win his trust?”

Wan Yulou said with a bit of aggrieved tone: "I didn't listen to you at first, but it's not like you don't know her old man's temperament..."

Li Xian waved his hand and said, "That's not a reason, since I entrusted you and Wu Bushan to do it, I know that you two have the ability to do things well, but you didn't do well in this matter... To win the trust of the enemy by handing over my relatives to the enemy, I can kill you without even asking a word. In other words, if you betray Wu Bushan in exchange for Li Jiancheng's trust and then complete You said I should reward you or kill you after my confession? Do you still feel wronged?"

"I dare not."

Wan Yulou hurriedly lowered his head and said: "I heard her old man mention this at the time, but I didn't have any firm intention of refusing it. If the old man was willing to help, it would be much easier to do this, and I really didn't try my best to dissuade her. .And Wu Bushan didn't know about this matter beforehand, it's the responsibility of the minister alone, please check it out, my lord."

"It is said that you are greedy for money and afraid of death, but Gu knows that you still have some sense of loyalty. Nothing happened to my aunt in the East Palace, or do you think I will spare you?"

"The minister is guilty."

Wan Yulou bowed and said.

"You are not guilty...but there is a big fault."

Li Xiandao: "You brought my aunt to the East Palace, but you didn't have the ability to protect it. This is insufficient calculation. Without a detailed plan and perfect preparation, you were moved because of my aunt's suggestion. This is not a crime. It’s just passing. Do you think that so many brilliant ideas in this world came by chance? Without planning, judgment, deduction, thinking that an idea is good and immediately executing it is not decisive, but reckless!”

"My aunt doesn't know how secret agents do things, so it's okay to think of this way when you think about it. But you are a person from the secret spy mechanism. Have you forgotten how military inspectors do things? No matter what it is, every How many people prepare, how many people plan, how many people implement it? If you forget what you have learned in the army in the past few years, what use will I keep you?"

"The minister was really wrong."

Wan Yulou was finally moved this time, he finally understood where he was wrong.

"I allow my subjects to make mistakes, but I cannot allow them to be stupid."

Li Xian said seriously: "You should know that my aunt is still not in any danger. It's not because of her luck or your luck, but because I'm well prepared. The word I don't believe until now is to borrow luck To achieve great things, luck may make people succeed once in a while, but no one with good luck will stay with him for a lifetime. You can attribute failure to bad luck, but never attribute success to good luck.”

"If I hadn't planted people in the Taiji Palace before I planned this matter, relying on his dedication and the help of the entire military guard to win Li Yuan's trust, how can my aunt's safety be controlled by me now?" In your hands? Considering that you are a talent, and it is not easy to endure things all these years, that's why I told you so much. If there is even a slight mistake in my aunt, even if you have ten heads, it is not enough to chop off."

"I know I was wrong."

Wan Yulou said sincerely.

"Say it yourself, what punishment should I receive?"

Li Xian looked at Wan Yulou and asked.

Wan Yulou was silent for a while, but couldn't think of what kind of punishment he should receive.Involuntarily thinking of what the thin man and Bailian had said before, his face immediately turned pale with fright.

"Can't think of it?"

Li Xian asked.

The fat man thought for a while, then said with a serious face, "It's better to hang up and beat."

……

……

The beating of Wan Yulou was a real beating. It would be a big mistake to say that the green shirts of Li Xian's knife guard camp can only use knives but not boards.After being beaten with thirty army sticks, Wan Yulou's white, greasy and fat buttocks burst into flesh and blood, looking extremely bleak.But this seemingly shocking trauma didn't hurt his muscles or bones. This fat man's lightness skills that didn't match his body were hard-earned, and Li Xian couldn't bear to just give it up.

It is useless for Wan Yulou to kill Li Jiancheng. Since he can still lurk, it is of great benefit to the current situation. Taking advantage of the fact that Wan Yulou made a big mistake, Li Yuan will not think of Fatty It turned out to be Li Xian's person.

But before the baton was finished, the officials of the Chang'an Mansion tremblingly begged to see His Royal Highness King Yan.Li Xian didn't want to do anything to save face, so he simply ignored it.Someone moved a chair and sat in the yard to watch the execution in person. The blood splashed by the plank made the officials of Chang'an Mansion turn pale with fright.He knew that these people with military background had very strict requirements on the rules, if they prevented King Yan from disposing of Wan Yulou with military law, he would not be beaten along with him.

If King Yan beat him, who would he turn to for reasoning?

So he could only listen to the fat man howl like killing a pig, and at the same time look at his nose, nose, nose, and heart like an old monk in meditation.

After the beating, Li Xian turned around and left without saying a word to the people in Chang'an Mansion.The official didn't dare to make fun of himself, so he simply explained to Li Xian's subordinates, and after apologizing, he carried Wan Yulou out.It has to be said that Wan Yulou's first bleeding was still very large.Along the way, the people in Chang'an Mansion kept trying to stop the bleeding, and they couldn't stop the side leakage even though they were wrapped in gauze.

After the people from Chang'an Mansion left, Li Xian leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.I was thinking about how to proceed with the next thing, and before I knew it, half a day passed.It has been nearly a month since I arrived in Chang'an City, but I still haven't waited for the daring person.Thinking that those courtiers only dared to make fuss on the memorial, but none of them dared to do anything, I couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

Li Jiancheng's connections in Chang'an City are by no means comparable to Li Shimin's, but even if Li Shimin turned against him, now it has become Li Yuan's only choice.That being the case, didn't any of Li Shimin's former subordinates in Chang'an City think of solving the hidden danger for their master first?

Now that Li Xian knows the secret rumors outside, he can be said to be the only obstacle to Li Shimin's succession.

He rebelled just to kill Li Jiancheng, not to take that seat directly.In fact, everyone knew what he was planning, but he didn't plan things well.If he killed Li Jiancheng, could Li Yuan really kill him to vent his anger?It is impossible to say that in anger, I have to find a way to cover up this matter, and tell a big lie to the world, for example, Li Jiancheng died of illness, for example, the person who rebelled was Li Jiancheng instead of him...

Li Shimin has been forcing Li Yuan from the beginning to the end, and Li Yuan naturally knows this well.

A concubine cannot inherit the family property. If Li Jiancheng dies, Li Shimin's only competitor is the rumored concubine. Now that the emperor has not allowed this rumor to be confirmed, Li Shimin naturally understands what his father means.Li Shimin thought thoroughly, if Li Xian was really his father's son, Li Yuan would not be able to admit it publicly, so Li Shimin had nothing to worry about... As for how to deal with Li Xian, after he ascended the throne, he still has no way to worry about it?

But now that things have developed, Li Xian can only say that Li Shimin's thinking is too beautiful.There is absolutely nothing in this world that is so perfect that there is no flaw. He thinks too perfect because he can't see the loopholes in his plan.

It can be said that what Li Shimin used was not a conspiracy, but a pursuit of power, a power that even Li Yuan had no other choice, and it was precisely because this power was too obvious that it was not only the Li family that could be seen.There are not many idiots among the courtiers, since they have already seen the future direction of Datang, wouldn't it be too late not to stand in line?

Li Yuan sent imperial troops to surround Qi Wangfu, just to tell those courtiers that there is no need to test anything.Those guys seemed to be flattering Li Xian, but they were actually trying to test the emperor's mind.If all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty went to see Li Xian, Li Yuan would not sit idly by if he had no intention of passing on the throne to him.In fact, speaking of it, it was those courtiers who were forcing Li Yuan to clarify his attitude.

Although Li Yuan took the opportunity of Li Shimin's rebellion to remove a large number of family officials who could influence the government, there is no doubt that most of the power in the Tang court is still in the hands of the family, and Li Yuan has more or less plans to eliminate the family. With a little foolishness.

The situation was so clear, what Li Xian was waiting for was that some people couldn't sit still.

There will always be one or two self-righteous fools who will think that getting rid of Li Xian is a great achievement.Officials seek fame more than businessmen seek money. Who doesn't want to leave a name in history?

……

After thinking for a while, Li Xian also understood why the people in Chang'an City who were about to move
