Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 531 Concubine Xiao Did It

"Are you satisfied with my reward?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Thank you Your Majesty for the reward, I am very satisfied!" Everyone said.

No matter what the emperor rewards, for them, it is a recognition of their work and a reward for them.

"It's good to be satisfied! Tell me, what kind of expert is guiding you, you can handle the errands so well!" Li Chengqian said.

"Your Majesty! It is His Royal Highness Xu who instructed the ministers to complete the errands assigned by His Majesty. Without His Royal Highness Xu, we would not be able to handle the errands so beautifully." One person stood up and said.

"Yes! His Royal Highness Xu Wang is talented and intelligent. He is the most capable among the princes. It would be great to have him assist His Majesty." Another person stood up and said.

Not to be outdone, the others stood up to speak for Li Sujie one after another, and kept praising Li Sujie's ability.

Even more implicitly recommended Li Sujie to Li Chengqian as the prince.

Li Chengqian didn't have any expression on his face, but he was very unhappy in his heart, and felt that Li Sujie was forming a party for personal gain.

Since ancient times, emperors have been most afraid of this. They are most afraid of princes and ministers forming a party for personal gain, which threatens the authority of the emperor.

"I will think about what you said, so let's come here today! You all stand down!" Li Chengqian said.

"The ministers will leave!" Everyone stood up, saluted and retreated.

"Wang Quan!" Li Chengqian shouted after they left.

"The servant is here!" Wang Quan replied.

"Send all these people to other places. I don't want to see them again. They dare to form a party for personal gain so blatantly. Do they still think that I am the emperor?" Li Chengqian said angrily.

"Everyone calm down, slaves will do it now!" Wang Quan said.

"There's also Su Jie, that rebellious son. He wants to be the prince, but I can't let him do so. You can go to Di Renjie to see how he is doing with the investigation!" Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Wang Quan took the order to retreat.

On the same day, the minister who had just received the reward was sent to another place.

……

"Everyone! You've been watching it for so long, so don't watch it, drink some tea, and take a rest!" Wang Quan said.

"I'm indeed a little tired. After reading this, I feel a little tired. I get tired easily when I get older." Li Chengqian put down the book in his hand and said, picked up the tea Wang Quan handed over, and took a sip.

"Everyone, when you are old and strong, you will surely be blessed and live a long life." Wang Quan said.

"How is Di Renjie's investigation going?" Li Chengqian asked.

"There are already some clues! But the specifics need to be investigated carefully. There are some places that Zhong Shuling has not yet figured out!"

"Zhong Shuling said that when he understands these details, he will be able to thoroughly find out whether it is what he thinks." Wang Quan said.

"Then when will he figure it out without any useful clues?" Li Chengqian asked.

"This servant doesn't know. The servant also asked Zhongshuling. Zhongshuling said, this is not easy to say. This may be understood in a flash, or it may take a long time to understand. .”

"In short, everything has to wait for Zhongshu Ling to clarify everything before the case can be completely closed." Wang Quan said.

"I'm a little tired, I need to take a nap, there's nothing important, don't bother me." Li Chengqian said.

"I understand!" Wang Quan replied.

At this moment, an eunuch hurried in.

"Presumptuous! How decent is it to be in such a hurry!" Wang Quan scolded.

"What's the matter?" Li Chengqian asked, just as he was about to take a nap, someone ran in.

"Report to everyone! Zhongshu ordered Di Renjie to seek an audience outside!" the eunuch hurriedly saluted.

"It seems that our Zhongshu Ling has figured out the matter and figured out what's going on. Let's call him in! I'm waiting for his reply." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" The eunuch saluted and retreated, calling in Di Renjie from outside.

"Chenzhong Shuling Di Renjie, see Your Majesty!" After Di Renjie came in, he paid homage.

"Di Qing is free from courtesy, and I will give you a seat!" Li Chengqian said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Di Renjie got up and thanked him.

"Di Qing, you came to see me, but has there been any progress in the assassination of King Wei?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Yes, after careful investigation by the minister, this matter is related to Concubine Xiao Gui." Di Renjie said.

"You mean this matter involves my harem? Tell me clearly what's going on." Li Chengqian said.

Ever since Di Renjie tried his best to thoroughly investigate the case, Li Chengqian had been suspicious of Concubine Xiao's mother and son for a long time, but there was no evidence, so he couldn't just rely on a guess and bring the mother and son to justice!

What if the suspicion is wrong, isn't it clearing the way for others.

"After careful investigation by the minister, although this Tian You is innocent, he still has an old mother, an elder brother and sister-in-law, and two nephews in his hometown."

"Tian You's family has a lot of fields. After some inquiries from the minister, these fields were purchased bit by bit when Tian You was alive. This is the situation of Tian You's family's fields. Please take a look at your majesty." Di Renjie said, Handed out a report.

Wang Quan hurried forward, took the report from Di Renjie, turned around and came to Li Chengqian, and handed it to Li Chengqian.

As Li Chengqian flipped through the pages, his brows furrowed even more. With Tian You's annual salary, he couldn't afford to buy so much land.

The report actually recorded these lands, when they were purchased, and how much money they spent. This is not something that a small long history can afford.

Tian You was able to purchase these lands, either because of his own corruption, or because someone behind him bought them for him.

"What's going on here? With Tian You's ability, it's impossible to buy these fields. Could it be that Tian You is still a corrupt person?" Li Chengqian asked.

"No, Tian You has been conscientious and conscientious in the past few years as a long-term historian, and he has never had any corruption."

"These are the properties that Concubine Xiao Gui bought through Tian You through the hands of her natal Xiao family. Moreover, Tian You and Concubine Xiao have already known each other."

"After many unannounced visits by ministers, and based on clues, it was finally found out that it was Concubine Xiao who strongly recommended Tian You to His Majesty to become Prince Wei's Tutor."

"Tian You is Concubine Xiao's eyeliner and slayer placed beside King Wei, the purpose is to get rid of the target at the critical moment." Di Renjie said.

"According to what you said, Concubine Xiao should not only put eyeliners and dead soldiers around King Wei, but is there such a person around other people?" Li Chengqian was taken aback and asked hastily.

"Indeed, there are people like Zhao Daosheng next to the abolished prince, and the other princes." Di Renjie said.
