Datang all-rounder

Chapter 172

Everything was just as Wang Ke expected. When the news spread that Wang Ke was closing the door to thank guests at home, more people stepped on the threshold of the Wang family. I remembered that when there was no such thing before, there were only a few people who came to the Wang family. There are several dials a day, and sometimes it is as if this dial has just been sent away, and that group of people walks in again.

Li Jing and other old killers must come every day. Of course, they are talking to Wang Si to ask for drinks. In fact, everyone knows that this is just an excuse. The purpose is to let people know that they have a good relationship with Wang Ke. Whatever happened, they all wanted to support him behind his back.

As for the prince, Li Ke is the only one who comes here. After all, he is the only one who has a good relationship with Wang Ke, but there are many princesses. There are a lot of carriages and horses.

No matter who asked the public, everyone spoke with the same caliber: Ministers of civil and military affairs are looking for Wang Si, princesses are looking for Nanping and Lanling, only Li Ke publicly said that they are looking for Wang Ke, but there is still a reason, saying that it is for The firearms thing.

After all, due to the status of the prince, everyone still has some scruples, and Li Ke is looking for Wang Ke for important court affairs, so the prince can't say anything, after all, these matters can only be solved by Wang Ke, and there is really no other way .

The Wang family saw so many court officials coming and going at home every day, and they were also used to Wang Ke having such and such things from time to time. The peace of the past was restored.

Now the only one who is still worried about this matter is Wang Ke. Regarding this matter, now Wang Ke only thinks that Comrade Li Er can come up with a result earlier. I can only accept my fate. After all, the others are father and son, and I can't complain at all if I want to take the knife on myself. If Comrade Li Er doesn't do anything to me, even if I don't do anything to the prince, I have to start doing it myself, even if I can't do it now. What about the prince, at least he should repair Hou Junji well, and let him understand that if he wants to knock himself down, as long as he has a sigh of relief, then he should not think about it.

But what made Wang Ke anxious was that Comrade Li Er didn't move at all. Wang Ke wanted to ask, but it's not easy to go to the palace to ask. Anyway, this thank you behind closed doors was also said on his own initiative. If he ran around, It's hard to say anything in the future.

On this day, Wang Ke finally couldn't bear it anymore, but because he couldn't go out, he thought of a way to ask Wang Si to go to Comrade Li Er to pretend to be pitiful and ask what happened to him.

After Wang Si left, he called Nanping and Lanling again, and asked them to go to the palace to see the empress, and then to ask Comrade Li Er, but they were specifically told not to intercede, and they could only ask when Li The Second Comrade had an opinion on this matter. As for what Wang Ke said on the spot, they could only rely on Nanping and the others.

After seeing off the two groups of people, Wang Ke walked slowly back to the study and sat down, quietly waiting for the news.

In the evening, both groups of people came back with dark faces. After Wang Ke asked, he found out that Comrade Li Er didn't express any opinions at all. He just told him (her) not to worry, and he would definitely handle this matter fairly.Wang Ke's heart is more than half cold now. From his point of view, Comrade Li Er is hesitating now. Now Comrade Li Er is also very clear that it is impossible to make a big problem into a small one. Now It depends on who will be the one to be taken advantage of.However, it is really hard for Comrade Li Er to have the prince on one side and the son-in-law on the other, but Wang Ke has already figured it out, and he is probably the one who has been taken advantage of.

As for Wang Ke's heart is not completely cool, it is because he still hopes that Comrade Li Er, a wise gentleman, can look at this matter rationally, and will not be biased towards the prince because of the disparity in status between the two parties.

Another day later, early in the morning, Wang Ke hadn't woken up yet, when a servant came to report that someone from the palace was looking for Wang Ke.Wang Ke understood that this was asking her to go to court, so she got up, dressed in an orderly manner, and then went downstairs, only to find that it was Eunuch Yang who came.

Wang Ke immediately walked forward very enthusiastically, pulled Eunuch Yang and said, "Eunuch Yang hasn't come to my royal family for a long time. I don't know why the emperor sent you here today."

Eunuch Yang said with a smile: "My lord, the emperor called our family to call you early this morning. My lord, please go to the palace with our family as soon as possible, and don't make the emperor wait too long."

Wang Ke walked out with Eunuch Yang, and asked, "Does Eunuch know what the emperor is calling me?"

Although Wang Ke knew in his heart what Comrade Li Er was telling him to do, but he still wanted to get some inside information from Eunuch Yang, so he asked all the questions like this.

Eunuch Yang lowered his voice and said, "It's about the crown prince's son. When the emperor called our family to call for his lord in the morning, he heard the emperor call someone to the East Palace to call for the prince. I'm afraid I want you to confront him."

As soon as Wang Ke heard this, she didn't ask any more questions. From Eunuch Yang's words, Wang Ke had already heard that Eunuch Yang was just guessing. He didn't know the specifics at all, so asking himself was useless.It's better not to ask, and play by ear!

Wang Ke has also figured it out now, even if he wants to kill himself today, he will bite off a piece of the prince's flesh before he dies, and he must help Li Ke to make a last effort to make the prince make a fool of himself in front of Comrade Li Er. Let the prince's impression score in Comrade Li Er's mind be lowered a bit.

When he came to Comrade Li Er's imperial study, Wang Ke saw that the crown prince had already sat on the lower head of Comrade Li Er, with a complacent look on his face, it seemed that he was very sure about today's confrontation!Seeing Wang Ke coming in, the prince's eyes revealed a look of contempt and provocation, the meaning was obvious: Xiao Mian, fight with me.Don't forget that I am the prince!

Wang Ke ignored the prince's gaze, saluted Comrade Li Er, and then saluted the prince and a group of civil and military ministers present.

Today Wang Ke saluted this group of people really seriously, not as perfunctory as usual. After all, in Wang Ke's opinion, today is the last time he salutes these old guys. Chongtian, there is no day to see you again.

Except for the prince, everyone else also stood up and saluted Wang Ke. At this time, they probably had the same mentality as Wang Ke in their hearts, and they all seemed very sincere.

No one noticed that Comrade Li Er on the side frowned when he saw Wang Ke saluting the crown prince, and the crown prince refused to even raise his hand. look.

Wang Ke did not sit down after saluting to everyone, but stood straight on the spot, looked at Comrade Li Er and said: "The emperor summoned his ministers to come, I don't know what's the matter, please show me!"

Wang Ke hasn't said the word "criminal minister" once so far. This is also Wang Ke's idea. He must not say this word from his own mouth, otherwise he will admit that he is guilty, and that is even more important. The prince's arrogance has risen.

Probably the crown prince thought that he had already secured the victory, so he shouted loudly: "Bold Wang Ke, is there anyone who talks to the emperor like this? Instead of bowing his head and pleading guilty, he asked the emperor instead, is he dying!"

Just as Wang Ke was about to speak, he heard Comrade Li Er say coldly: "Presumptuous, I haven't convicted the boy of the Wang family yet, why do you want him to bow his head and confess? I didn't say anything, so it's your turn to speak!"

As soon as Wang Ke heard Comrade Li Er speak like this, he immediately let go of half of his heart, because it seemed that he would not do anything to him after listening to Comrade Li Er's tone, but he also knew that the emperor was always moody, so it would be fine. The representative will be fine for a while, and maybe after a few words, someone will pull him out, take his head off and play with it as a ball. This is also very possible.

Now that Comrade Li Er had spoken, Wang Ke took advantage of the situation and stopped talking. He just looked at Comrade Li Er with his eyes to see what he would do next.

Comrade Li Er handed the memorial to Eunuch Yang, motioned him to give it to Wang Ke, and then said to Wang Ke: "Boy of the Wang family, you have also read the prince's memorial. There are many of them these days, and none of the lovers." In the free time, everything has been dragged on until today. Now I have called the crown prince over. In front of me, the crown prince, and all my lovers, tell me about the things that the crown prince sued you in this memorial. Don't worry, I'm watching, as long as what you say is the truth, I will never wrong you!"

Comrade Li Er's words can be said to have given Wang Ke a reassurance. He knew that Comrade Li Er's incident gave him a chance to defend himself. don't care.Anyway, as long as I'm fine, the days ahead will be long, and I'll have plenty of time to fight the prince, and it's not too late.

Wang Ke took the memorial from Eunuch Yang and opened it, and began to refute point by point.

Needless to say, first of all, I must first explain why I opened a shop and workshop. Anyway, Comrade Li Er knows this.As for the matter of uniting Li Ke and several princesses, it is easier to handle. The restaurant I opened with Li Ke was not called Li Ke, but Li Ke pestered me to buy shares. After Li Ke took the shares, Li Ke didn't take care of it for a day, but just divided it proportionally at the end of each year. If you don't believe this, you can ask Li Ke.

As for the fashion workshop, Wang Ke put himself aside at once. Wang Ke did a great job at the beginning, and neither he nor Li Ke participated in it. They asked Nanping and the others to come forward. Now I'm going to tell Wang Ke about this. Wang Ke pushed everything to Nanping and the others with just a few words.If the prince insists on talking about this, he can only go to Nanping and the others.

As for the next few items, Wang Ke didn't waste any words.He has a close relationship with Li Ke. Wang Ke explained that at the beginning it was just because he just came back and didn't know anyone. It happened that Li Ke was also free, and he could take him around to see, so everything was very familiar.Later, when Li Ke entered the court to manage affairs, the two of them also had to deal with the affairs under Li Ke's management, and there were places where Wang Ke needed to come forward. Whoever does something can't just say that Wang Ke is making friends with the prince and has mischievous intentions.

Wang Ke also half-jokingly said: "How to say, the minister is also a son-in-law, and he and His Royal Highness are considered relatives. How can it be said that this is to make friends with the prince, and the intention is wrong."

Wang Ke's words amused Comrade Li Er and all the ministers, only the crown prince sat there with a livid face, but there seemed to be more hatred in his eyes.

Wang Ke then began to refute the prince's claim that he was clinging to the powerful. Wang Ke pointed at several civil and military ministers present and said: "Your Majesty, after all, many adults who usually communicate with your ministers are here. You can ask them, my king. Did Ke invite them to dinner and drink if he had nothing to do? If it wasn't for the affairs of the court, the minister would never have sat and chatted with them. Of course, if the adults chat with the minister's father, the minister will have nothing to do. It's them As a junior, I am not qualified to control the friendship of the previous generation."

Except for Changsun Wuji, all the ministers present nodded in agreement, indicating that Wang Ke was right.

Wang Ke also knew that the eldest grandson Wuji was in a difficult situation. Anyway, the crown prince was his own nephew, so even if he didn't help the prince speak, he still couldn't help Wang Ke.

At this moment, the crown prince didn't care much anymore, he stood up and said: "Then what do you say when the court ministers come to your house for dinner?"

Wang Ke asked indifferently: "The emperor and empress have dinner at my house, what should I say?"

The prince was a little dumbfounded now.It's true that Comrade Li Er took Empress Changsun to Wang Ke's house for dinner, and Comrade Li Er went there by himself without Wang Ke's invitation. Everyone in the court knew about it.

Seeing that the prince had nothing to say, Comrade Li Er slowly said, "Boy of the Wang family, have you finished explaining everything?"

Wang Ke clasped his fists and replied: "Your Majesty, I have finished what I want to say, please give me an order!"

Comrade Li Er turned his head to look at the prince again and said, "Does Chengqian have anything else to say?"

The prince sat there, already speechless.

Comrade Li Er saw that the prince did not speak for a long time, and he slapped his hand heavily on the imperial case and said: "Chengqian, as a prince, you don't learn how to govern the country, but instead plot against courtiers all day long. Do you know that the Wang family has How did the boy share my worries and do things for the court! In my eyes, I didn't say that you were already saving face for you. But you, together with Xiao Xiao, want to abolish my left and right arms. You want me Is the country of the Tang Dynasty only passed on to the second generation like the previous dynasty?"

Comrade Li Er's words were so serious that all the ministers dared not excuse the prince.The prince was even turned blue and purple by Comrade Li Er's words.

Wang Ke will definitely not say anything at this time, anyway, he has already torn his face, and he only hopes that Comrade Li Er speaks as seriously as possible.

Comrade Li Er talked for a long time before he stopped, and seeing that everyone was silent, he said again: "Okay, that's all for today, I will make a decision on this matter tomorrow, let's all leave today. "

As soon as the prince heard this, he stood up, turned around and left. Comrade Li Er was so angry that he pointed at his back and shook his head but couldn't say a word.

All the ministers bowed to Comrade Li Er and withdrew, and then bowed their hands to congratulate Wang Ke one after another. Wang Ke hurriedly saluted one by one, thanking him for his support.

A group of people walked out of the palace chatting and laughing, and went home separately. Wang Ke also hurried home. He had to tell his family what happened today at the first time, so as to reassure them.
