Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 38

"I will deal with this matter myself, and you don't have to worry too much! Don't say anything. If someone dares to frame you, I will definitely not let him go." Li Er said a few words of relief.

The best way now is to keep quiet. Li Er will send people to investigate these things secretly. Is it true that Liu Jie is going to slander him as Li Chengqian said.

"No! My son will leave!" Li Chengqian stood up, bowed and said goodbye.

His goal has been achieved, so there is no need to stay here. There are still many things in the East Palace waiting for him, the crown prince, to deal with.

Not long after Li Chengqian left, someone came to report that Liu Jie had something to see.

"Report to Your Majesty, Sanqi Changshi, Doctor Yinqing Guanglu, and Shangjun Liu Jie are asking to see you outside the hall."

Li Er was startled! He was worried that Liu Ji's coming at this time might have something to do with what the prince said just now?
If it is true what the prince said, what should he do?After all, Comrade Lao Li has no evidence to prove that Liu Jie is going to frame the prince.

What good does this do for Liu Ji?That's the key.

"Besides Liu Ji, are there other people?" Li Er asked.

"Return to Your Majesty! There is only one guard!" the servant said.

"Show him in!" Li Erdao, he wanted to see if Liu Jilai wanted to accuse Prince Li Chengqian of cursing him with the technique of disgusting victory.

If this was the case, he would never spare Liu Ji lightly, so he could only use Liu Ji's head as a warning to Xiaoxiao who was plotting evil.

"No!" The servant backed out and led Liu Ji into the Hall of Liangyi.

"Veteran Liu Ji, see Your Majesty!" Liu Ji saluted Li Er.

"Exemption! Liu Qing came to see me, but do you have something important to play?" Li Er said.

"Your Majesty! I have just received a secret report from a person that the crown prince is practicing the technique of disgusting victory in Yongjiafang, Chang'an City, and wants to curse His Majesty to the dragon's death."

"This is a serious matter! I have come here to report to His Majesty! I even found a puppet in Yongjia Square in Chang'an."

"His Majesty's name and birthday are written on the puppet, and a small rope is wrapped around the puppet's neck, and it is full of needles." Liu Ji said.

After Li Er heard this, his expression changed drastically on the spot. As soon as the prince left, Liu Ji came to accuse the prince of cursing him with the technique of hating victory.

If the crown prince hadn't told him about this in advance, he might have believed Liu Ji's words, and Liu Ji would really be punished.

Seeing that there was a trace of anger on Li Er's face, Liu Ji was overjoyed!I thought his report had an effect, and His Majesty wanted to deal with the prince.

He never expected that things were not what he thought.

Prince Li Chengqian had already given His Majesty Li Er a vaccination before Liu Jie entered the palace to report.

Otherwise, Li Er would have been furious when he heard Liu Ji's report, how could he be as calm as he is now.

This is also where Liu Ji is puzzled. You must know that the most taboo technique in the past dynasties is this witchcraft technique. Once any emperor hears that someone dares to use such a witchcraft curse, the consequences can be imagined.

The scourge of witchcraft in the last years of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty is the best example.

"This is the puppet that curses His Majesty, please take a look at it." Liu Ji was afraid that Li Er would not believe it, so he took out the puppet that had been prepared.

Wang Yuan went forward to take the puppet, and saw that the carved puppet was somewhat similar to Li Er.

Li Er took the puppet from Wang Yuan and looked through it carefully. There was a piece of yellow paper on the back of the puppet, on which his name and date of birth were written.

A short rope was tied in a knot at the neck, and the puppet's head, hands, feet, stomach, and chest all had marks of needle pricks.

"Who else knows about this besides you?" Li Er asked.

"In addition to the minister, several colleagues also saw it with their own eyes. It was the puppet that they and the minister found in Yongjiafang." Liu Ji said.

This is to tell Li Er that he not only has physical evidence, but also personal evidence, which can prove that what he said is true.

"Don't make this matter public, so as not to cause turmoil in the government and the public. I will let Changsun Wuji and the others investigate the matter of disgusting victory. You should step down first." Li Erdao.

In terms of his position, he can't just listen to anyone's opinion and jump to conclusions.

Judge the other without review, after all, he is the emperor of this empire.

Whether it was the crown prince or Liu Ji, Li Er remained suspicious because he didn't know which of them was lying.

Whether it is the prince or Liu Ji, for the emperor, no matter who does such a thing, it is a kind of betrayal and a kind of disloyalty.

"I obey!" Liu Ji didn't say a word, and bowed resolutely and retreated. Just now he saw Li Er's face changed.

Liu Ji knew in his heart that if he continued, he would only ask for trouble, and it might even arouse Li Er's suspicion.

What do you, Liu Ji, want to do in such a hurry to convict the prince?Do you want to achieve an ulterior purpose by framing the East Palace?

After Liu Jie left, he didn't follow Li Er's instructions, and didn't mention anything about the technique of disgusting victory.

Instead, he tried every means to spread this matter and let more people know about the dirty deeds of Prince Donggong.

Liu Jie and the others have to rely on such means to completely eradicate the Eastern Palace forces in one fell swoop and uproot them.

Their ultimate goal is to kill the prince and work hard for their camp to achieve an overwhelming victory. How can they just stop like this.

After Liu Ji left, Comrade Lao Li immediately summoned more than a dozen ministers, including Changsun Wuji, Yang Shidao, Chu Suiliang, and Sun Fujia, into the palace to discuss matters related to the technique of hating victory.

In the end, Li Er handed over the matter to Changsun Wuji and the others to investigate thoroughly, and Changsun Wuji and others immediately took action.

The crowd divided into two groups, one went to interrogate the witnesses and the prince, and the other went to investigate the scene of the crime, maybe they could find some clues.

On the other hand, Wei Wang Li Tai was not idle either. Li Tai and others even secretly mobilized the officials to impeach the prince for his misconduct, intending to take the opportunity to expand the matter, and then direct public opinion to the unfavorable side of the prince.

As a result, many memorials to impeach the crown prince for the tactics of disgusting victory were handed over to His Majesty Li Er's imperial case like snowflakes.

These memorials were all withheld by His Majesty Li Er, and they were not released. Before the case is clear, it is useless to say anything.

Li Er also attached great importance to this case. During the trial of Changsun Wuji and others, Li Er sent people to inquire about the progress of the case many times.

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others involved are also under great pressure, but they have nothing to do. After all, this case of detesting victory is not so easy to investigate, it will take time.

Of course, these are all things to say later. At this time, Li Chengqian had just returned to the East Palace, Liu Ji had just left, and the ministers Li Er had summoned were still on their way.
