Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 523 Surveillance
"Send someone to pay close attention to every move of the East Palace. What does the prince do on weekdays? Who did he meet with? What did these people do?"

"Also, Cao Wang and Jiang Wang should pay close attention to them, and report immediately if there is any situation, but don't startle the snake." Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian also wanted to send someone to arrest Li Jue immediately and put him under house arrest in another room.

Li Chengqian was really angry when he heard about the prince's rebellion.

But after thinking about it, Zhao Daosheng is just the prince's male favourite, what he said may not be credible, what if he deliberately framed the prince for his life?

But what if everything Zhao Daosheng said is true?Before everything became clear, Li Chengqian did not intend to touch Li Jue.

But someone will monitor his every move.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order and left.

Wang Quan came back after arranging everything.

"Do you think I was wrong?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, how could he be wrong!" Wang Quan laughed.

The leader is always right, and Wang Quan knows this truth well.

"I want to hear you tell the truth, speak from your heart, and say what you think in your heart, instead of listening to you flatter me here." Li Chengqian said.

"Everything my servant said is true, there is absolutely no falsehood!" Wang Quan said hastily.

"Then why? Why did the prince turn against me?" Li Chengqian asked.

"That's the prince's fault! The prince should never have done anything wrong, and he shouldn't have been disobedient and unfilial!" Wang Quan said.

"Yes, the prince is at fault! That's my fault. I didn't teach him well, which made him what he is now. One wrong step, one wrong step!" Li Chengqian blamed himself.

"Your Majesty is serious! The reason why the prince became what he is now is because the people around the prince led the prince astray! Only the prince dared to do disobedient and unfilial things." Wang Quan said.

"Okay! No matter what you say, I am also responsible for not teaching the prince well." Li Chengqian said.

Wang Quan stood aside and bowed his head in silence.

Three hours later, the first report about the East Palace was sent to Daming Palace.

"What did you say?" Li Chengqian asked.

"The crown prince met Li Jingxuan in Guangtian Palace half an hour ago. The other party was very vigilant, so he didn't find out what they said. Li Jingxuan has left the East Palace, and they are following up." Wang Quan said.

"Li Jingxuan, he is a man who has read poetry and books, and he is also full of knowledge, and now he is the prime minister of the court. How can he get involved with the crown prince?" Li Chengqian said.

"Li Jingxuan is still the prince's teacher, so there is nothing wrong with having close contacts with the prince." Wang Quan said.

"There is nothing wrong with teachers and students meeting, but Li Jingxuan often goes to the East Palace. I found that since Li Jingxuan ran to the East Palace, the crown prince began to change."

"Creating the current situation, Li Jingxuan has nothing to do with it, and he has to take full responsibility." Li Chengqian said, the more he talked, the more angry he became.

Li Chengqian felt that it was Li Jingxuan who had misled Li Jue.

"How about, the servant ordered someone to arrest Li Jingxuan and torture him severely! Is the prince rebelling?" Wang Quan asked.

"No need! Just keep staring!" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty's latest information!" A eunuch trotted in.

Wang Quan immediately stepped forward to take it, and waved the eunuch to retreat.

"How was it? Where did Li Jingxuan go after he left the East Palace? Who did he meet?" Li Chengqian asked.

"After Li Jingxuan left the East Palace, he returned to the mansion. He never left for half a step, and he never saw any suspicious person or minister meeting him." Wang Quan said.

"What about the people in Li Jingxuan's family? What are they doing? Has anyone been out of the house?" Li Chengqian asked.

Wang Quan looked at it carefully and said: "Two servants have been out of the mansion, but one of them went to buy rouge and gouache, which should be used by the female relatives of Li Jingxuan's mansion."

"The other one went to a silk and satin shop and hired a tailor. The season is about to change. It should be to buy some new clothes for them."

"That's all?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Yes! That's all!" Wang Quan replied.

"Doesn't Li Jingxuan's house need to buy vegetables for cooking? Why didn't I hear about the grocery shopping?" Li Chengqian asked suspiciously.

"There is a person in Li Jingxuan's house who specially delivers food to his house, so there is no need to buy it separately." Wang Quan said.

"Then this vegetable seller, can you keep an eye on him?" Li Chengqian said.

"That's really not true. Zuo Zuo is just a vegetable seller, so there's no need to follow him," Wang Quan said.

"How do you do things? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on everyone? The vegetable seller should also send someone to watch. How do you know if Li Jingxuan will pass on the news through the vegetable seller?" Li Chengqian questioned.

"Your servant deserves to die, it's your negligence." Wang Quan hurriedly knelt down and said.

He didn't think much about it, he felt that if a vegetable seller caused some trouble, even if Li Jingxuan wanted to plot something, he would not tell a vegetable seller.

He didn't expect that the vegetable seller could help pass the news.

"Your maidservant understands! Let's arrange someone to watch it. Do you want to send someone to arrest the vegetable seller for interrogation?" Wang Quan asked.

"No need! You just need to keep an eye on him! See who he delivers food to, who among these people may be Li Jingxuan's accomplice."

"How much a vegetable seller can know, Li Jingxuan will not tell him." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order.

An hour later, Wang Quan hurried back.

"Your Majesty! The servants have already figured it out! The vegetable seller delivered vegetables to nine people a day, and three of them were delivered by Li Jingxuan." Wang Quan said.

"In this way, the three people Li Jingxuan appointed to deliver the food should be their accomplices. Li Jingxuan stuffed the information into the prepared food and sent it to the houses of these three people."

"Who are the three of them?" Li Chengqian said.

"They are General Xu Shixue, General of the Left Guard, Jiang Zheng, General of the Left Guard, and Jiang Huan, Minister of the Ministry of War," Wang Quan said.

"These people seem to be Li Jingxuan's accomplices. We closely monitor their every move. I want to catch them all." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan replied.

"Is there any movement between Cao Wang Li Ming and his heir Jiang Wang Li Wei?" Li Chengqian asked.

"The crown prince has sent someone to contact King Cao and King Jiang, but they have been standing still, and there is no movement." Wang Quan said.

"The two of them are so quiet, what do you want to do?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Maybe they didn't want to rebel with the prince, so they didn't take any action." Wang Quan guessed.

"Then why didn't they report it to the imperial court? I still don't know what they are thinking. If you want to have both ends, no one will be offended." Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty's words are very true!" Wang Quan said.
