When Li Yu was left without a master, Prime Minister Cui Chuan rushed to the East Palace in a hurry.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's not ...... big thing"

Cui Lian spoke before Li Yu, and Li Yu was about to say that a catastrophe was coming, so he stood up excitedly and went straight to the door.

"It's good that Cui Xianggong is here, now it's really a person sitting at home, disaster comes from the sky, Doctor Qin has been assassinated!"

Li Yu hoped that Cui Jian could get an idea for him and quickly calm down this unwarranted disaster, in his opinion, his relationship with Qin Jin was still very close, after all, he had the experience of fighting side by side in the Chang'an Guard War, and the trust foundation was far better than that of ordinary people, but then Cui Lian's words made him fall into an ice cave.

"King Jianning committed suicide!"

"What, King Jianning committed suicide?"

Li Yu's eyes widened in disbelief, why did Li Yu get involved again?

"Your Highness, please look!"

While speaking, Cui Jian took out a letter from the skin bag around his waist and handed it to the eunuch to forward to the crown prince Li Yu. After receiving the letter, Li Yuden could feel the weight of these pieces of paper, only to see that they were still stained with dark red blood stains, which was shocking.

After roughly browsing the letterhead in his hand, Li Yu felt as if he had been hit hard again, and only muttered in his mouth:

"It's impossible, it's impossible, it's impossible!"

In his suicide note, Li Qi, the king of Jianning, took the responsibility for the assassination of Qin Jin on his shoulders, and declared that he had nothing to do with others, even if he won the title after death, he would not hesitate to harm his descendants.

Suddenly, Li Yu's eyes were full of tears, at this time he couldn't care about complaining about his brother's recklessness and unauthorized behavior, Li Yu was able to bear and block all possible troubles for himself at such a heavy price, and this affection alone would never be repaid in this life.

"Brother...... You, why don't you discuss it with your brother and ......?"

Finally, Li Yu couldn't hold back any longer, tears burst out of his eyes, and he cried.

Cui Lian's attitude was completely different from Li Yu's, and he hurriedly supported the crumbling Li Yu, and on the other hand, he hardened his heart and kept persuading:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, now is not a time for brotherhood, when you are indecisive, if you are not careful, you will be caught by the enemy and bite hard. ”

Li Yu is also a person who listens to persuasion, and gradually stopped crying, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and asked in a sobbing voice:

"Thanks to Cui Xianggong's reminder, I, my heart is now messed up, how should I deal with it?"

At this time, the candles in the hall flickered, just like the state of mind of the two monarchs and ministers, and the future was uncertain. Cui Jian pondered for a while, looked at Li Yu's left and right, there were two eunuchs behind him, and the next things to discuss were all related to life and death, and naturally the fewer people who knew it, the better.

Li Yu immediately understood, and waved his hand before he stopped sobbing:

"You all go down, no one is killed, and you must not get any closer than half a step!"

In fact, the eunuchs in this palace are all cronies who have been with Li Yu for many years, and they are all trustworthy, but he is careful to support the ship for ten thousand years, and he still sent these people out without hesitation.

At this point, Cui Lian lowered his tone and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"First, please ask Your Highness to immediately order Jingzhao Yin Cui Guangyuan to put the whole city under martial law, on the grounds that bandits have infiltrated Jingshi and are becoming more and more rampant. Second, please ask His Royal Highness to immediately convene the six rates of the East Palace, these people must be undressed and unclothed, and they will be protected on the left side of the East Palace every day. ”

After a while of muttering, Cui Lian continued:

"There is another person who must be appeased by His Highness himself!"

"Who?"

"Li Fuguo!"

Li Yu nodded, appeasing Li Fuguo, a two-faced eunuch, he naturally had an unshirkable responsibility.

"Please rest assured, Li Yu will leave to see Li Fuguo now!"

Cui Lian stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Your Highness, don't worry, if Your Highness rushes over in person, wouldn't he leak the hole cards first?"

"What Cui Xianggong said is very true, then invite him to the East Palace!"

This time, Cui Lian did not object again, as long as these three things were done properly, there was nothing to worry about. But there is another point that he can't rest assured, that is, although Cui Guangyuan is close to the crown prince Li Yu, he has an inextricable relationship with the Shenwu Army at the root. If Qin Jin had already informed Cui Guangyuan before this, would Cui Guangyuan still be able to do his best for Li Yu?

In contrast, the eunuch Li Fuguo, who seems to be two-faced and three-stabbed, is better to fiddle with.

Li Yu is also a person with a clear mind, but he has just lost his ability to judge because of the trembling of his heart, and now he saw the unspeakable worry in Cui Lian's eyes, so he asked:

"Is there anything else Cui Xianggong can't rest assured?"

Cui Jian sighed.

"Well, let's put it bluntly, the old man is worried about Cui Guangyuan. ”

In this regard, Li Yu was more surprised, Cui Guangyuan is a person with clear grievances and a bit of chivalry, although sometimes he can't help but be a little broader, but in his eyes, he is by no means the kind of person who does bad things.

"Cui Dayin is upright and will not hold back!"

Although what he said was categorical, Cui Lian retorted with a cold face:

"If there is no Qin Jin factor mixed in, Cui Guangyuan will definitely not be bad, but in case Qin Jin ......"

Even if the latter words were not clear, Li Yu knew very well what his family was going to say, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

"How's that to be?"

Cui Jian said in a deep voice:

"Now I'm afraid that Cui Jian will make a deal with any of Li Fuguo and Empress Zhang, if their actions are before His Royal Highness, they will go in a big way!"

After that, Cui Jian stomped his foot again, he was obviously unwilling to have this situation.

At this moment, Li Yu, who has always been soft, is more refreshing.

"Whether it is a blessing or a curse, we must always face it, instead of guessing and worrying like this, it is better to give it a go!"

As soon as these words came out, the gloomy Cui Lian finally showed a smile, and his eyes rarely showed a hint of approval.

Suddenly, he found that the Son of Heaven, who had always shown weakness, also had a strong side, and when faced with unpredictable and difficult situations, he was more able to let go of his hands and feet. This is the way things are in this world, there is never a last resort, and sometimes only a gamble will lead to the ultimate victory.

"Since this is the case, the old man will act separately from His Highness!"

On the one hand, Li Yu sent eunuchs and invited Li Fuguo to enter the East Palace overnight. On the other hand, Cui Lian took the initiative to talk to Cui Guangyuan in depth. Cui Guangyuan is the Yin of Henan, although his status is not a high-ranking official in Chang'an, which is full of public waiting, but the weight of power in his hands is the number one except for the prime minister.

When he left the East Palace, there was already a curfew and martial law in Chang'an City, but Cui Lian was the prime minister, and the flag representing his identity on the carriage became a sign of unimpeded access.

The official office of Jingzhao Mansion is very close to the East Palace, but in a few moments, the carriage arrived outside the official office.

Cui Guangyuan is different from the previous Jing Zhao Yin, in the past, Jing Zhao Yin had another mansion in the city, only he did the opposite, and lived in the back hall with his family.

However, Cui Lian, who is the prime minister, actually waited for nearly half an hour after the briefing. Cui Lian, who was sitting in the carriage, had an ugly complexion, and an ominous premonition surged in his chest.

Finally, Cui Guangyuan personally greeted him from the official office, and saw that Cui Jian had already gotten off the station and was waiting outside, so he immediately rushed up with a smile on his face.

"Cui is entangled in official business, and he is late to greet Xianggong, please forgive Xianggong Haihan!"

Cui Lian's face didn't show joy or anger, and he only replied lightly:

"Since Da Yin is entangled in official business, the old man has waited for a while, and he doesn't have to worry much. ”

"Forgiveness is one, justice is not to blame, Cui is really uneasy in his heart. Let's go, go in and talk......"

After a few more polite words, Cui Guangyuan invited Cui Lian to speak.

It's just that Cui Guangyuan arranged the place where the two met in the middle hall, and did not discuss in the front hall according to the usual practice. Cui Lian's heart was also surprised, if only from Cui Guangyuan's slow treatment, they almost had nothing to say, how could Cui Guangyuan actually lead himself to the middle hall to show his closeness in the blink of an eye? This can make Cui Xianggong, who has always boasted of being clear-sighted, scratch his head, and he didn't know what kind of medicine Cui Guangyuan was selling in his gourd.

"Why did Da Yin discuss with the old man in the middle hall? Actually, the old man's overnight visit was not a confidential matter, it was just a normal business......

Cui Guangyuan smiled mysteriously and said:

"Don't pretend to be confused, isn't the old minister's overnight visit for the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince?"

"This ......"

Before identifying Cui Guangyuan's true purpose, Cui Jian maintained the principle of cherishing words like gold, and although he paused, he only smiled, neither denying nor agreeing.

After entering the middle hall, the two sat down, and Cui Guangyuan said in a low voice:

"It's not a secret, the reason why I treated Xianggong slowly just now was because there was a big man who arrived before Xianggong, and he just pulled Cui Mou to get angry with him!"

Cui Guangyuan said this very bluntly, and his face suddenly turned worried.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's situation is already very worrying, and someone wants to make a big fuss about the death of King Jianning. If the old man comes to see him overnight, it is for this reason, then ask the old man to give him orders!"

Cui Jian was only stunned for a moment, and immediately understood that most of the people who had just come to Cui Guangyuan were Empress Zhang, but how could Empress Zhang learn the news of King Jianning's death so quickly? He was the first person to learn that King Jianning had killed himself, and immediately ordered the inside and outside of King Jianning's palace to be cut off, with the purpose of blocking the news.

However, the news leaked out at an unbelievable speed.

Frightened, Cui Guangyuan did not show all his emotions, but only showed a little worry, and after sighing, he stared at Cui Guangyuan intently, trying to see some clues from his expression.

However, even Cui Lian, who has been in the sea for a long time, has not been able to see anything unusual in Cui Guangyuan's eyes. After such a long time, finally, he chose to believe the person in front of him.
