Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 519 Solving the Gao Family
"Teacher, now that Liu Nayan has been exiled to Zhenzhou, what should we do next?" Li Xiang asked.

"Next, we will move to Gao's house and get rid of Gao Zheng, another confidant of the prince." Tian You said.

"What is the master going to do?" Li Xiang asked.

"Recently, I learned that Gao Zheng himself often goes to the place of Fireworks and Willow Lane in private, and, as the crown prince's favorite, he often steals the belongings of the Eastern Palace." Tian You said.

"Oh! In this way, the high government and death can be achieved, and one of the crown prince's confidantes can be eradicated." Li Xiang said.

"The crimes committed by Gao Zheng are not enough to punish him to death, and he will not be exiled. With the merits of Gao's family, the most he can do is to be dismissed and go home." Tian You said.

"What's the point of that? Even if he has no official position, as long as Li Jue is still the prince, he is still the prince's confidant and can still serve the prince." Li Xiang said.

All the effort was just to make him lose his official position, how useful it would be, don't forget that Gao Zheng is just a Dian Shancheng who is in charge of the meals, and he is in charge of the meals of the Prince's Mansion on weekdays.

Even if he doesn't have the official position of Dian Shan Cheng, he can still have other excuses to enter and leave the East Palace. It doesn't matter whether he loses the official position or not.

"His Royal Highness, don't be impatient, please listen to me." Tian You said.

"Teacher, please tell me." Li Xiang said.

"Gao Zheng is nothing to worry about. Our goal is not Gao Zheng, but the Gao family. The Gao family has a lot of influence in the court. Only by eradicating the Gao family can the crown prince be hurt." Tian You said.

Naturally, his target is not Gao Zheng, but the family power behind him, and the Gao family is also one of the powerful backing of the prince.

Only by eradicating the Gao family can the power of the prince be weakened, and if you want to kick the Gao family out of the court, you must go through Gao Zheng.

"What is the master going to do?" Li Xiang asked.

Tian You stepped forward and whispered in Li Xiang's ear, Li Xiang's eyes lit up, he kept nodding, and fell in admiration for Tian You.

"Teacher's plan is very good! Let's do it now!" Li Xiang laughed.

"Wait a minute, King Wei! It's not easy for King Wei and I to come forward in this matter, King Wei, don't forget that walls have ears." Tian You said.

"It's just that we don't do it, so who will take care of it?" Li Xiang asked.

Now he only has one Tian You and four guards by his side, if they don't do it, who else can do it!
"Don't worry, King Wei, I've already found a suitable candidate. He is willing to work for King Wei, so I will leave this matter to him," Tian You said.

"Where is this person now? After the matter is completed, I will definitely reward this person heavily. When I become the crown prince in the future, I will not treat this person badly." Li Xiang said.

"Vegetables are on sale! Vegetables are on sale! Fresh vegetables are cheaper!" As soon as Li Xiang finished speaking, there was a burst of hawking outside.

"This person is here!" Tian You's eyes lit up, he smiled, and turned to tell the guards on the side.

"Go and call the vegetable seller in."

"No!" The guard led the order and called the vegetable farmers in.

Li Xiang's expression was a little unnatural, Tian You entrusted such a big matter to a vegetable seller, what if he messed up?
"Gentlemen, do you want to buy vegetables? They are all fresh, just picked from the field, and they are all grown at home, so they are cheap." The vegetable farmer said with a smile on his face.

Tian You got up and went to the vegetable farmer, and looked at the dishes in his box: "Your food is good! We have few people here, so we can't eat so much, so give me a catty of these."

While talking, taking advantage of people not paying attention, the two agreed on the signal, Tian You whispered: "Start to act!"

The vegetable farmers each weighed a catty of vegetables to Tian You, and left with the vegetables.

"Is it appropriate to leave it to such a person?" Li Xiang asked a little dissatisfied.

He felt that Tianyou was a little unreliable now. How could such a big matter not be handled by an official, but a vegetable farmer. He might not even know where the yamen opened.

"King Wei, don't worry, this person is a servant of a censor in the court, he is only in charge of helping us communicate, and it is this censor who helps us act." Tian You said.

"So that's the case, I blamed the Grand Tutor!" Li Xiang apologized.

"After the high government is resolved, is our next goal to get rid of Zhang Da?" Li Xiang asked.

After getting rid of Zhang Da'a, Li Jue would have no one he could trust. Li Jingxuan alone would be hard to do alone, and he would be closer to the crown prince.

"No! King Wei should submit a form to His Majesty, requesting to return to the fief." Tian You said.

"What? You asked me to go back to the fief. Isn't everything we have done during this time in vain?" Li Xiang was surprised.

He is getting more and more confused now, what exactly does Tian You want to do?Didn't he want to help him win the crown prince?

Why did he let himself return to the fief? Didn't he know that it would be impossible for him to come to Chang'an after he returned.

"As long as King Wei trusts me, I will not harm you. This is just a method of retreat. His Majesty will definitely leave King Wei to entrust him with important tasks."

"Only in this way can the prince be removed completely, otherwise even if all the prince's confidantes are eradicated, as long as His Majesty does not abolish the prince, the prince will still be the prince." Tian You said.

"Okay! I will listen to the Tai Tuo in everything." Li Xiang said.

In fact, he was still very worried, whether his father would approve him to go back to the fief because of this, and what would he do then?
A memorial to impeach Gao Zheng was handed to Li Chengqian. After reading it, Li Chengqian was very angry. What kind of ghosts and snakes are there around the prince?
Immediately, Li Chengqian issued an edict to hand over Gao Zheng to Dali Temple for trial.

After some interrogation in Dali Temple, after confirming that everything was correct, Dali Temple sent the trial result report to Li Chengqian.

After reading it, Li Chengqian felt that Gao Zheng's problem was not serious, so he issued an edict to remove him from the position of Prince Dian Shancheng, let him go back and reflect on himself, and asked Gao Zheng's father, Gao Xingzhen, to discipline him strictly.

But before that, a person entered Gao's mansion, what did he say to Gao Xingzhen and the others?
After the man left, everyone in the Gao family looked ugly, and they all unanimously decided to draw a clear line with him when Gao Zheng came back, so as not to implicate the Gao family because of him.

As soon as Gao Zheng, who didn't know it, came home, he was thrown to the ground by his father Gao Xingzhen who rushed out. Before he could react, he pulled out his saber and stabbed Gao Zheng's throat.

Gao Zheng was shocked, he hurriedly dodged to escape the fatal stab, but his neck was still scratched, Gao Zheng pushed Gao Xingzhen away, turned over and was about to flee through the door.

How could the members of the Gao family allow him to get what he wanted? Gao Xingshen saw his younger brother missed, so he immediately raised a knife and killed him, stabbing Gao Zheng in the abdomen.

Gao Zheng's brothers also chased after him and hacked Gao Zheng to death. Gao Rui stepped forward and chopped off his head and threw it into the street.
