Holding Li Lizhi who rushed into his arms, Cheng Yi couldn't help but let out a gentle laugh.

The moonlight was just right, Cheng Yi took Li Lizhi for a leisurely walk in the back garden, and at the same time listened to Li Lizhi telling her what happened in Chang'an City in the past few months.

Although most of the things Li Lizhi said were irrelevant, they were not easy, but they did not interrupt her interest.

"I heard a few days ago that Qiao Guogong has already started proposing marriage to Chai Lingwu."

"Chai Lingwu hasn't married yet?"

Cheng Yi couldn't help frowning. In his memory, Chai Lingwu was a few years older than him.

Li Lizhi curled her lips, since she knew that Cheng Yi personally drove Chai Lingwu out of the Sixth Army of the Beiya, she had a very bad impression of Chai Lingwu.

"It's not that he didn't get married, it's that his previous wife died suddenly half a year ago."

Li Lizhi said.

Although this matter sounded like it had nothing to do with Cheng Yi, he had a bad premonition faintly in his heart.

"Husband?"

Seeing Cheng Yi suddenly frowned, Li Lizhi cried out worriedly.

Cheng Yi came back to his senses, and when he lowered his head, he met Li Lizhi's worried eyes.

"I'm distracted. Go ahead and talk about what else happened in Chang'an City during my absence."

Li Lizhi stared at Cheng Yi for a while, and after making sure that Cheng Yi hadn't lied to him, she continued to talk to Cheng Yi about many things with great interest.

The next day, when the sky was getting dark, Cheng Yi got up and left the house.

He has been away from Beijing for more than three months, and now that he has returned, he must show his face in the morning.

As soon as he stepped into the Liangyi Hall, Cheng Yi noticed that because of his arrival, the atmosphere in the hall became unusual.

Cheng Yi pretended not to notice, walked into the hall calmly, and stood in his place calmly.

Following Cheng Yi's movements, the gazes of those who had been carefully observing him became more aggressive.

He rolled his eyes in his heart, and glanced around the hall expressionlessly.

After meeting Cheng Yi's eyes, those people immediately turned their eyes away.

After the early court ended, Li Shimin sent someone to invite Cheng Yi to the Tai Chi Hall.

"Cheng Qing, you should have noticed it too, right?"

In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin asked with a not-so-good expression.

"I noticed."

Cheng Yi pouted and said.

Li Shimin sighed heavily, and said again: "I also only knew about Qiao Guogong's mansion more than ten days ago, and I want to put the death of Mrs. Chai Lingwu on you."

Hearing this, Cheng Yi couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Chapter 74 Let's have an appetizer first

"I haven't even met Mrs. Chai, how are they going to frame her?"

Cheng Yi asked curiously.

Li Shimin squeezed his brows, and said again: "They are going to release rumors in Chang'an City, saying that you and Mrs. Chai are not clear, and the reason why Chai Lingwu was driven out of the Sixth Army of the Beiya was because Chai Lingwu found out about you. matter."

Cheng Yi let out a "tsk" and said in his heart, this Chai Lingwu actually did the thing of cuckolding himself in order to get rid of the bad temper back then!

"Duke Qiao knows?"

Cheng Yi asked.

Li Shimin shook his head with a sigh, and said: "Those people did it without telling Chai Qing, and Chai Qing still doesn't know anything about it."

"Then what does His Majesty expect?"

Cheng Yi asked again.

Li Shimin looked at Cheng Yi for a long time, and said after a while: "Originally, I wanted to wait and see what happened, but now I realize that I must not let them go!"

Ever since he learned that Chai Lingwu wanted to attack Cheng Yi, Li Shimin was always in a state of anger and disappointment.

For three whole months, he had ordered people to watch Chai Lingwu secretly, and had decided that if Chai Lingwu could repent and stop in time, he would take the initiative to intercede with Cheng Yi.

But who knows, three months have passed, not only did Chai Lingwu not repent, but his behavior became more and more annoying.

Thinking of his eldest sister who died young, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling sad.

"Coincidentally, I think so too."

Cheng Yi has never been a person who swallows his anger. If Chai Lingwu's plan really succeeds, he can imagine with his toes how his reputation among the people will plummet.

He actually wanted to use this dirty trick to ruin himself, why didn't they ask if he, Cheng Yi, would agree?

Thinking of this, Cheng Yi couldn't help licking his back molars.

How dare you pour this kind of dirty water on me, it's really a life-threatening situation!

"Then, do you want to tell Qiao'er about this?"

Thinking that Li Lizhi would be sad because of this, Li Shimin became even more angry with Chai Lingwu.

Cheng Yi nodded, and said, "Anyway, Changle will always know, and it's better to tell her earlier so that she can have a clear idea."

Li Shimin thought about it carefully, and agreed with Cheng Yi's approach.

"Don't worry, my people have been watching them all the time, and they won't let them release such dirty rumors."

Li Shimin assured Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi, who has always been very lazy, would not refuse Li Lizhi's kindness if it was changed to other things, but this time, his reputation was related to him, so naturally he would not act like a fake hand.

"Your Majesty, I want to take care of this matter myself."

Cheng Yi looked straight into Li Shimin's eyes and said.

After his words fell, the Tai Chi Hall fell into a brief silence.

After a while, Li Shimin, who was sighing again and again, finally nodded in agreement with Cheng Yi's proposal.

"Your Majesty," Cheng Yi looked at Li Shimin who was full of distress, and said, "I will not show mercy this time."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was taken aback, and under Cheng Yi's determined gaze, he let out a deep sigh.

……

After coming out of the palace, Cheng Yi went directly to the Shence Army camp outside the city.

Sure enough, as soon as Cheng Yi told Li Feng and the others about this, they immediately exploded like a powder keg being ignited.

"This bastard bastard!"

Li Feng slapped the table and cursed angrily.

"At the first sight when the subordinates saw him, they knew that he was not a thing. They didn't expect him to be so not a thing!"

"Earlier, my subordinate's father also said that Chai Lingwu is a good man, but now it seems that he is just a trash!"

Qin Shandao said with disgust.

The others were naturally outraged.

Cheng Yi said coldly: "Since he wants to attack me, then don't blame me for acting first."

As he spoke, he set his sights on Qin Shandao again.

"I know that you have some contacts in Chang'an City. Go and tell those people that Qiao Guogong's mansion is going to be in trouble, and let them prepare to 'add insult to injury'."

Cheng Yi said to Qin Shandao.

"Yes!"

Long before Cheng Yi entered Chang'an City, Qin Shandao and Chai Lingwu had already tied the knot.

Chai Lingwu has always been narrow-minded, because Qin Shandao is stronger than him in every way and is younger than him, he used tricks and tripped Qin Shandao more than once.

It can be said that if Chai Lingwu hadn't intervened secretly one after another, Qin Shandao would have already joined the Sixth Army of the Beiya.

Qin Shandao hated Chai Lingwu, and the people who were close to him naturally also hated Chai Lingwu.

Hearing what Cheng Yi said now, he was naturally the most excited one.

"Shen Zihe, Li Feng, the Duke of Qiao's mansion will be handed over to you two, let me investigate thoroughly! From top to bottom, from inside to outside, don't let anyone go!"

Cheng Yi said to Shen Zihe and Li Feng again.

"Yes! Don't worry, my lord!"

Shen Zihe and Li Feng clasped their fists together.

"As for you guys," Cheng Yi looked at Cheng Chusi and the others again, "you are responsible for muddying the water. Don't they want to muddy the water in Chang'an City? Let's help them."

"Yes! This subordinate takes orders!"

Cheng Chusi and the others were like a rainbow.

Cheng Yi couldn't help but sneered as he looked at the subordinates who were eager to try.

He would like to see if the Duke's Mansion of Qiao State, which has always been praised by the people and relied on by the emperor, is really so flawless.

In the next few days, the entire Shence Army became completely busy.

Shen Zihe and Li Feng squatted in the Duke's mansion of Qiao State day and night, and according to Cheng Yi's order, they searched the Duke's mansion of Qiao State to the bottom.

Even when Princess Pingyang was still alive, they had found out how many of Chai Shao's concubines had been dealt with.

Not to mention the fact that Chai Lingwu wanted to frame Cheng Yi.

One night three days later.

Sitting in the study, Cheng Yi looked at the things that Shen Zihe and Li Feng handed in, the more meaningful his expressions became.

"good."

After reading everything, Cheng Yi let out a breath slowly, and put down the densely written booklet in his hands.

Shen Zihe and Li Feng, who received the praise, really showed joyful expressions on their faces.
