Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 149

"Does Your Highness really want to be so ruthless?" Hou Junji stood up suddenly, pointing at Li Chengqian.

"It's not that the widow is ruthless, but that the national law does not allow the widow to favor one's selfishness. As the pillar of the Tang Dynasty, Chen Guogong should set an example."

"The widow is waiting for good news from Chen Guogong in this East Palace." Li Chengqian said.

"In that case, the old minister will leave!" Hou Junji flicked his sleeves, turned around and left the hall directly.

Li Chengqian looked at Hou Junji who left angrily, his face was livid, he knew that now was not the best time to take down Hou Junji.

Based on the two incidents of him withholding money and breaking into the East Palace, it is not enough to punish him with death. After all, he is a hero and veteran.

In addition, he still had letters to and from him in his hand, if Hou Junji jumped over the wall in a hurry and handed over these letters, it would be bad for him.

Unless Hou Junji rebelled, words would not be enough to kill him. Hou Junji had already threatened him, so naturally he couldn't stay.

Everything is Hou Junji's own fault, no wonder everyone is so cruel.

Watching Hou Junji walk out from the inside with a gloomy expression, Li Yifu, Wang Quan and Cheng Wuting entered the hall until he was far away.

"Lang Jun!"

"Your Highness!" Li Yifu, Wang Quan, and Cheng Wuting said.

"Li Yifu, you go back first, the matter of the money being withheld by Hou Junji, I will deal with it myself." Li Chengqian said.

"Resign!" Li Yifu saluted and withdrew.

"Hou Junji broke in, did he hurt someone?" Li Chengqian asked after Li Yifu left.

"A few servants were injured, and the minister has ordered them to be taken down for treatment." Cheng Wu said firmly.

"As the leader of the left of the East Palace, I shoulder the responsibility of guarding the East Palace, but let Chen Guogong trespass into the main hall. This is my dereliction of duty. Please punish me." Cheng Wuting knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists in pleading guilty.

"I don't blame you for this matter, the widow will not punish you, get up! You still have to stay in the East Palace." Li Chengqian said.

Cheng Wuting was loyal, Hou Junji trespassed on the main hall because Hou Junji was too arrogant and didn't take him seriously as the crown prince, how could it be blamed on Cheng Wuting.

"If Your Highness has no other orders, I will leave first!" Cheng Wu said firmly.

"En! Go!" Li Chengqian nodded, and Cheng Wuting withdrew from the hall.

"Wang Quan, hurry up and call Bocheng here, I have something to do with him." Li Chengqian said to Wang Quan.

"No! I'm going now, servant girl!" Wang Quan didn't dare to delay, and immediately left the hall to find Long Zhi to meet Li Chengqian.

Half an hour later, Long Zhi appeared above the main hall.

"Chen Longzhi has seen His Highness!" Long Zhi saluted.

Li Chengqian motioned for Wang Quan to retreat, and Wang Quan immediately withdrew from the main hall, then Li Chengqian said to Long Zhi: "The widow summoned you here, there is something I want Jin Yiwei to do!"

It takes a thousand days to raise soldiers, and now is the time to use Jin Yiwei.

"The officers and men of Jin Yiwei have already been waiting for the next day, waiting for His Highness's order for a long time, and they will do their best for His Highness at any time." Long Zhi said excitedly.

These days, apart from exercising, he eats and sleeps. He himself feels that if he continues like this, he will become a useless person sooner or later.

Now that the crown prince is using their Jinyiwei, how can he not make him happy and excited.

"The widow wants you to spy on Hou Junji secretly and collect evidence of his crimes. Let the widow investigate clearly who he associates with on weekdays." Li Chengqian said.

"I obey!" Long Zhi said.

"Also, the widow wants you to take Hou Junji's correspondence with the widow at all costs, and bring it back to the widow, without being discovered by anyone."

"Once it is found out and reported directly to the widow, the matter must be done quickly." Li Chengqian said.

"Don't worry, Your Highness! I will take the letter back." Long Zhi said.

It is very difficult to steal the letter from Chen Guogong's mansion without being known by anyone.

So what if it is difficult, this is the only way to be challenging, Jin Yiwei does not do things that are not difficult.

"Go! We are waiting for your good news!" Li Chengqian said.

"Resignation!" Long Zhi bowed and stepped back.

In Jinyiwei's secret stronghold, as soon as Long Zhi came back, all the people in the stronghold surrounded him.

"What mission did His Highness Commander Long assign to me?" asked a Jin Yiwei.

They stayed in this secret stronghold, doing nothing except practicing all day long. They felt that if this continued, they would sooner or later become moldy.

They are also eager to make contributions, but since they became Jinyiwei, they waited and waited, but they didn't see any orders from the crown prince.

When he didn't know how long this kind of life would last, the crown prince's personal servant, the king's inner officer, appeared in front of them like a heavenly soldier.

They know the opportunity is coming, waiting for their opportunity to make a difference.

"His Royal Highness does have a task for us Jin Yiwei to do! Don't get together, let's go!"

"The two deputy commanders and the four captains come in with me." After Long Zhi said that, he walked towards a room, and the deputy commander and the captains followed.

At this moment, Jin Yiwei felt in his heart from top to bottom that it was good that he was needed by others!
"Commander Long, what order did His Highness give?" A deputy commander asked after all the people in the room were seated.

"His Royal Highness ordered us Jin Yiwei to collect evidence of Chen Guogong Hou Junji, and secretly monitor Chen Guogong's every move. Where he went and who he met must be recorded in detail." Long Zhi said.

"Commander, besides Chen Guogong, what about his Flying Tiger Army? Do we need to send someone to watch it?" one of the four captains asked.

"Yes! Chen Guogong often stays with these soldiers under his command, staring at these people, maybe we can get the information we want." Long Zhi said.

"Understood! I'm going to arrange people to keep an eye on Chen Guogong's mansion and the movement of the Flying Tiger Army." Another deputy commander said.

"Also, send people to sneak into Chen Guogong's mansion." Long Zhi said.

"Infiltrated Chen Guogong's mansion, what is the mission? Lurking or assassination?" A captain asked.

"Neither of them. In the early years, His Royal Highness and Chen Guogong conspired for big things. I don't need to tell you that you understand that Chen Guogong has letters in his hand that he planned to communicate with His Highness in the past."

"Your Highness means that no one should be disturbed, and these letters should be retrieved quietly, and this matter cannot be discovered by Chen Guogong." Long Zhi said.

"This matter is simple. I happen to have a subordinate under my command who has the ability to do so. Let him sneak into Chen Guogong's mansion and he will be able to retrieve the letter." A captain said.

"Okay! Let your subordinates get involved, but this must be done quickly." Long Zhi said.

"Commander, don't worry! This matter will be settled within three days." The captain said confidently.

"Everyone is gone! Act now!" Long Zhi said.

The crowd dispersed, gathered their own hands, and acted separately.

Jinyiwei, who came out of Jinyiwei's secret stronghold, spread out like a big net, spreading across the world.
