"What is brother Cheng Yi thinking?"

Li Li looked at Cheng Yi suspiciously.

Cheng Yi came back to his senses, smiled and looked at Li Lizhi tenderly, and saw that Li Chengqian and Li Tai were also looking at him with puzzled faces, so he spoke directly.

"Just now when I entered the palace, I happened to meet Kuang Siqing. He said that Minister Yin was assassinated last night."

"Yin Hongzhi was assassinated?"

Li Tai exclaimed, and then shut his mouth suddenly as if he suddenly realized something.

Cheng Yi lowered his eyes calmly and called him by his name?

It seems that the relationship between Li Tai and Yin Hongzhi is not very harmonious.

Li Chengqian glanced at Li Tai lightly, then looked at Cheng Yi again, and asked.

"Then Kuangsi Qing said again, how is the Yin servant injured?"

Cheng Yidao: "It is said that Minister Yin was not seriously injured."

"How could someone go out of his way to assassinate Minister Yin? If Concubine Yin finds out about this, I'm afraid she will be sad for a long time again."

Li Lizhi rested her chin with both hands, and said quietly.

Li Tai rubbed her head with a smile, and said, "This is about their Yin family, it has nothing to do with us, so don't worry about it."

Hearing this, Li Lizhi first pushed away Li Tai's hand that was pressing on top of her head, then curled her lips.

"The Yin family is not the Yin family. The Yin Concubine is the imperial father's concubine, so she and we are one family. Fourth Brother can't say such things anymore."

Li Lizhi muttered.

Hearing this, Li Tai was obviously stunned for a moment, but Li Chengqian suddenly burst out laughing.

"Why did brother Cheng Yi suddenly come today?"

Li Lizhi dragged her jaw, stuck out her tongue at Li Tai, then turned to Cheng Yi with a smile.

Only then did Cheng Yi take out an exquisite wooden hairpin from his arms, and then pushed it in front of Li Lizhi.

"I saw this in the city yesterday, and I think it matches you very well."

Li Lizhi's eyes became extremely bright in an instant. She looked at Cheng Yi and then at the wooden hairpin on the table with an excited expression.

Chapter 44 I have nothing to say!

Looking at Li Lizhi's appearance, she seemed to want to give Cheng Yi a hug, but because of the presence of others, she had no choice but to hold the wooden hairpin tightly.

"Thank you Brother Cheng Yi, I like it very much."

Li Lizhi liked everything Cheng Yi gave her from the bottom of her heart.

After sitting in the Zhaoming Hall for another half an hour, Cheng Yi got up to say goodbye.

"I made an agreement with Kuang Siqing earlier. After watching the princess, I rushed to the Taiji Hall to meet him and His Majesty."

Looking at Li Lizhi who was reluctant to part with him, Cheng Yi said helplessly.

Although Li Lizhi was reluctant to part with Cheng Yi, but as a princess, she was not an ignorant person, so she didn't say much, but sent Cheng Yi outside Zhaoming Hall in person.

"Brother Cheng Yi, you must come to see me often in the future!"

Li Lizhi took Cheng Yi's hand and said.

Cheng Yi smiled and nodded, then nodded Li Lizhi's small nose: "Okay, I will definitely come here often."

After coming out of Zhongzhaoming Hall, Cheng Yi walked all the way to the direction of Taiji Hall.

When Cheng Yi arrived at the Hall of Tai Chi, it happened that Li Shimin had just finished talking with Kuang Shu about Yin Hongzhi's assassination.

Hearing the news of Cheng Yi's arrival, Li Shimin hurriedly ordered someone to invite Cheng Yi in.

"Cheng Qing, what do you think of this matter?"

After signaling Cheng Yi to take a seat, Li Shimin asked directly.

Cheng Yi glanced at Kuang Shulai, and finally set his eyes on Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty thinks, who sent the assassin who sneaked into the Yin servant's house?"

Cheng Yi asked pointedly.

Li Shimin frowned and shook his head. To be honest, although he had heard a lot from Kuang Shu, he still had no clue.

Cheng Yi breathed out slowly, and said again: "Then if I say that the assassination of Yin Shilang is just a play directed and acted by himself, will your majesty believe it?"

At this remark, Li Shimin and Kuang Shulai couldn't help but widen their eyes.

It's not that they don't want to talk about it, but they feel that if this matter is really done by Yin Hongzhi himself, then his scheming is too deep.

"Why would he do that?"

Li Shimin asked puzzledly.

Cheng Yi curled his lips, and told Li Shimin and Kuang Shulai everything about Yin Hongzhi's sending people to spy on the general's mansion and his placement in Shence's army.

"I see!"

After listening to Cheng Yi's words, Kuang Shulai suddenly let out an exclamation.

Both of them were puzzled and looked at Kuang Shu.

Kuang Shulai looked at Cheng Yi and said, "One time ago, when I went to your house, didn't you suddenly stop and look behind you? When I asked you what's wrong, you still told me it was nothing."

When he said that, Cheng Yi also remembered.

"That's because I still don't know who is spying on the general's mansion. It might worry you, so I kept silent."

Cheng Yi said to Kuang Shu.

"This Yin Hongzhi..."

Li Shimin frowned fiercely.

He asked himself that he was not mean to Yinjia and his brother, not only did he not treat Concubine Yin and Yin Hongzhi harshly because of the matter of Yin Shishi back then, but he also took good care of them over the years.

Who knew that Yin Hongzhi would do such a thing.

"Of course, I don't know why the Yin servant is staring at me so closely."

Hearing his words, Li Shimin's heart suddenly tightened.

He suddenly thought of a possibility.

Seeing the sudden change in Li Shimin's expression, Kuang Shulai became nervous for no reason.

"Yilun, you said earlier that there are already rumors in Chang'an City that Yin Hongzhi's assassination this time was actually done secretly by Cheng Qing."

Kuang Shulai hurriedly said, "It's true."

Li Shimin sneered, and said: "Since he wants to drag Cheng Qing into the water, then I might as well let him do it this time."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Kuang Shulai looked at Cheng Yi in confusion again.

As for Cheng Yi, although he had just heard Li Shimin say this, he already understood what the other party was trying to do.

There was Li Xiaogong in the front, and Yin Hongzhi in the back.

It seems that if they don't let them bleed, there will always be people in Chang'an City who don't have a long memory.

Cheng Yi thought to himself.

"Cheng Qing understands?"

Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yi with a smile.

Cheng Yi nodded: "Understood."

Kuang Shu came to look at the two of them separately, and when he saw the tacit smiles on their faces, there was only one thought left in his heart.

The clown was me?

Speaking of which, he still heard this statement from Cheng Yi.

Thinking of this, Kuang Shulai couldn't help feeling even more sad.

"There are less than two months left for your marriage with Zhi'er. I don't want any troubles to arise in the future."

Li Shimin said seriously.

This is also what Cheng Yi thinks now.

In the next few days, under Li Shimin's behest, Kuang Shulai fully cooperated with Cheng Yi, and the two of them, in the open and in the dark, investigated Yin Hongzhi in a short period of time.

But Yin Hongzhi, who was investigated by them both openly and secretly, never noticed it.

……

Hall of Liangyi.

"Your Majesty! The General of the Fuguo Kingdom Cheng Yi sent someone to assassinate Yin Hongzhi, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, and ask Your Majesty to be the master of the Yin servant!"

On this day, just as soon as he went to court, an official from the Ministry of Punishment jumped out and said harshly.

However, Zhang Liang, who was the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, felt incredible when he saw this scene. Why hadn't he heard before that Cheng Yi had assassinated Yin Hongzhi?

"Your Majesty! He, Cheng Yi, has always been arrogant, contemptuous of laws and regulations, and has repeatedly been rude to his colleagues in the court. I hope His Majesty will see clearly!"

As soon as the previous person's voice fell, another censor jumped out.

Wei Zheng, who was standing in the queue, looked at the back of the official at Yushitai, his face completely darkened.

"Your Majesty! Ever since Cheng Yi served as the General of the Fuguo and commanded the Sixth Army of the Beiya and the Shence Army, he has enriched his own pockets, practiced cronyism, and formed cliques for personal gain. This is an unforgivable crime!"

Seeing this person, Changsun Wuji, the leader of the officials, suddenly sneered secretly.

What a minister of officials!

On the dragon chair, Li Shimin looked down expressionlessly. His eyes only stayed on the three of them for a moment, then moved back and swept across the courtiers.

Compared to the previous performance by Li Xiaogong, these people were obviously more aggressive this time.

But what Li Shimin didn't expect was that Yin Hongzhi didn't join in.

However, he was relieved immediately, although Yin Hongzhi didn't show up this time, but as long as the investigation continues, he doesn't believe that he can't find out what kind of contacts these people have with Yin Hongzhi.
