Recalling the scene in the Liangyi Palace, Li Hui's expression couldn't help but change slightly. There was a deep sense of shame swirling in his heart, and he didn't want to repeat it in front of his friends. So, he just said concisely: "I thought that Grandpa was attacked by bandits last time, but today I learned that it was actually an assassination by a dead soldier." There is also a twist and turn that the family of the eldest father also encountered a dead soldier on the way back to Beijing. ”

The prince was stunned: The abolished prince is about to return to Beijing? Met an Assassin on the way?! He didn't know that those people had sown such a big net! It seems that the people behind the scenes are really not afraid of tossing, and they originally wanted to completely muddy the water and then try to steal other things. What is the purpose of these two assassinations? Will there be a chain plan in the future? He instinctively believed that his previous judgment was wrong, and that the assassination was not just a flattering act, but also had other ulterior motives.

Sow discord? Framed? Party strife? Seeking power?

"Grandpa's love was a little excited, and it was not easy for him to restrain himself." Li Hui said again, somewhat helpless.

"I know about the assassination of His Royal Highness King Pu." The prince said, "The soldier who came to deliver the excerpt is none other than Chen Guoyi, who I had seen in Lingbei Station before. The excerpt was written by He Duwei, and both the Shangzhou Assassin and the Governor did not want to bear the case, so they pushed him out. He was probably worried that His Royal Highness King Pu would be angry, so he wanted Chen Guoyi to bring me over, so that he could intercede for them when he comforted the king. ”

Li Hui suddenly realized: "I also said how did you come so quickly." Yesterday evening, I was asked to deliver the letter, and today you set off for Chang'an. Then He Duwei is also sick and rushed to the doctor, forcing you so much, do you want to make friends or make enemies with you?! Moreover, my grandfather is angry, and it is impossible to be angry with him, and now he is racking his brains to think about who is behind the scenes. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the door of the study creaking, and His Royal Highness King Pu pushed the door in anger, and his round body was particularly eye-catching, looking as if it occupied half of the study: "San Lang!" You come to reason with your brother!! If this matter wasn't for Li Song's hand, who else would it be?! Assassination? Didn't he just sprain his foot?! Isn't it a bitter meat meter?! ”

After speaking, he realized that there were other people in the study, and he was shocked. Then, he looked at it again and found that it was Wang Zixian, and immediately calmed down a lot. In the eyes of His Royal Highness King Pu, the prince offered this young man to share weal and woe with them all the way, and he was definitely a credible person, so there was no need to worry that he would reveal those words of Fang Cai.

Li Xin then also walked into the study, his eyes swept over Wang Zixian and fell on Li Hui. It wasn't until Li Hui bowed his head slightly towards him, signaling that this person was credible, that he said unhurriedly: "Grandpa, that's not what the truth says. If it is inferred from this, Grandpa was also assassinated, but he was unscathed, wouldn't it be more like a bitter meat trick. If the great father in turn accuses Grandpa of being the mastermind behind the scenes, how can Grandpa defend himself? ”

"......" Li Tai was speechless for a while. He pondered for a long time, and had to admit that this move was indeed inappropriate, so he muttered, "If it weren't for him, who else would want to deal with me?" The remaining two brothers can't attack us again......"

"Grandpa might as well think about it, whether what the child said is reasonable-the eldest father and grandpa are now out of step with the heir, if you want to compete for the throne, only the second father can still compete with the uncle." Li Hui thought for a while, "If the second father wants to seize the position of the East Palace, he should also think about how to shake the position of the uncle, instead of assassinating the second one; If the uncle feels that the crown prince's position is unstable, it is the second father who should be removed, not the second. Therefore, no matter how the child thinks about it, this matter is very strange. ”

"That's a lot of truth." Li Xin continued, "If Grandpa and the eldest father think too much and accuse each other, it will be easy to provoke grandfather's anger, and it will let the mastermind behind the scenes escape." ”

The two sons were full of words, and His Royal Highness King Pu listened to it and felt that he could understand. However, he has always been an impatient, and he can't see their seemingly unhurried appearance, so he just wants to urge them to continue to reason carefully, digging three feet into the ground to find out the enemy hiding in the shadows: "Then you say, who is the mastermind behind the scenes?!" ”

Li Xin and Li Hui glanced at each other, both frowned slightly, and almost said in unison: "At present, the case has not been investigated, and there are not enough clues, how can we find out the mastermind behind the scenes?" ”

His Royal Highness King Pu jumped up anxiously: "When will the three divisions be able to find out?!" Dalang, you go and watch every day to see how they find out—yes! I almost forgot! Why did you go to pick up Li Song's family back to Chang'an?! Whose idea was this? I'm not happy to see me, am I?! Actually asked my son to pick up my enemy?! If something happens along the way, won't it all depend on you?! ”

His Royal Highness King Pu, who is usually not very reliable, actually said the key to this matter in one sentence, and taught his two sons to be impressed again. Speaking of this "trap" that had to be jumped into, Li Hui was also a little worried. Li Xin is still very calm: "If I do this, it means that the relationship between Grandpa and the eldest father has been eased, and my grandfather is naturally happy to see it." Don't worry, didn't my grandfather send General Zuo Jin Wuwei with him? It shouldn't be a big deal. ”

Of course, Li Hui couldn't reply bluntly in front of Li Tai -- just because another general was sent with his soldiers and horses, if the situation became chaotic, it would be difficult to control it. Perhaps this general of Zuojin Wuwei is indeed trustworthy, but it does not mean that his men and horses are not unusual. In addition, the guards around the eldest brother stay in Chang'an all the year round, and they may not be able to guarantee that everyone is absolutely loyal. However, the guards who accompanied them all the way from Junzhou had lived and died with them, so they were naturally more credible.

"Can the three kings listen to a certain word?" At this time, the prince bowed his hand, "I think that such a dangerous trick as assassination is only for profit." Especially for the big families, if it weren't for the hatred of the clan or facing such a major festival as the destruction of the country, it would never be possible to ignore the rise and fall of the family and do such a rebellious thing. ”

"What Zixian means is that now I can't see who can benefit from it for a while, but the danger of the main messenger has not yet been exhausted?" Li Hui continued, "I also thought about whether it was the competition between the second father and the uncle that affected the grandfather and the eldest father. Some people want to use the assassination to frame the other party for inhumane feelings, so as to completely get rid of the other party. However, this tortuous method is too risky. If you leave any evidence, you will harm yourself. ”

"Since you can't see it for a while now, it's better to wait." Li Xin said, "After the case is heard, at least a few chess pieces will be damaged." When the time comes, we will see who these chess pieces are and what the connection is with each other. I can't say, but then we will be able to determine whether they did it on the fly, or if there is indeed a mastermind behind it. ”

Li Hui bowed slightly, and Wang Zixian also nodded. Li Tai saw that they had no objections, but no matter how anxious he was, he had to press it down for the time being.

After His Royal Highness King Pu left, Li Xin also turned around and wanted to go back to his courtyard. Wang Zixian suddenly came to him and gave a cross salute: "King, can you recommend yourself and go with the king to meet the abolished prince?" Although he is not talented, he also has an old servant who has walked thousands of miles by his side, and he is still good at sleeping in the mountains and avoiding evil. ”

Only by grasping the overall situation can we make more accurate judgments. He had underestimated his opponent before, thinking that the matter had been satisfactorily resolved. But now I know that this person is like a spider weaving a web, and he has already glued the Wang family to the head of the spider's web, how can he get rid of it at will? I can't say when, as long as he flicks it lightly, the Wang family has to move with it, and then die without a place to be buried! Fortunately, the situation is not yet clear, and there is still an opportunity to make amends, which he must make good use of.

Li Xin and Li Hui were both slightly stunned, and the two brothers looked at each other and quickly exchanged glances.

"Brother, Zixian has traveled to many places and knows a lot about everything on the journey. If there is any danger along the way, he may be able to warn him in advance. Moreover, he is brave and fearless, and can protect himself even if he encounters any variables. In any case, as a good friend, Li Hui should also say a few kind words for him first.

The prince smiled at him, as warm as the warm spring sun.

Li Xin glanced at the two of them noncommittally, and said lightly: "Since Wang Langjun has the heart to help, it stands to reason that I should gladly accept it." However, I have some doubts, and I have to listen to Wang Langjun's explanation, otherwise I can't be completely relieved. ”

"It's okay to ask, king."

"I don't know why Wang Langjun wants to go with me? Do you want to use this to get closer to our family, or do you want to win the attention of our grandfather? Or maybe something else? Presumably Wang Langjun also knows that our Pu Wang family is sensitive to identity, and it won't help you much in your future career. You have also said that in the case of the great family, it must be for the sake of profit. What are you trying to do to get involved? ”

Hearing this, Li Hui frowned slightly, and wanted to say something, but Li Xin signaled him to remain silent.

Wang Zixian also looked at him soothingly, and still said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the king, there are two reasons why I want to intervene in this matter. One is to repay the affection of the county king. The king of the county has already recommended a certain to the saint and Her Royal Highness the queen, and a certain is grateful in his heart. is so kind, I don't know how to repay it for a while. I happened to hear about this today, and I saw that the king of the county seemed to have hidden worries in his heart, so he was willing to share the worries for the king of the county, and that's it. ”

Li Xinshang didn't know when his brother recommended him, so he couldn't help but glance over. Li Hui didn't feel that there was anything out of the ordinary in his move, and his attitude was very calm.

Second, after hearing about the assassination of His Royal Highness King Pu, I couldn't help but think of some news I had heard in recent days. I don't know if those news are true or false, so I am a little curious and want to follow and take a look. ”

Li Xin and Li Hui both looked slightly grim. Li Xin still had some doubts, but Li Hui asked bluntly: "Zixian has found a suspicious murderer?" ”

Wang Zixian nodded solemnly.

How will the situation evolve if a pawn is properly thrown for the person in the shadows?
