Li Jiancheng listened, but glanced at Yuming, and then said with a wry smile: "I am not a relative of my grandmother's family, I am afraid that I will be involved in the rebellion of Dugu Luo and be killed by the imperial court, I hope our Li family can come forward to protect them...... In fact, they are unfounded. The saint is not such a stingy person. He had already publicly announced that for the Dugu clan, only the younger brothers and immediate family members who participated in the rebellion would be punished, and the collateral brothers and the women in the clan would not be killed, what are they afraid of! ”

Since Yang Guang's mother was the Dugu Empress of the first emperor Yang Jian, he was also open to the rebellious Dugu clan, and did not punish the nine clans like Yang Xuangan and the Yuan clan. It's just that the people in the Dugu clan know that the patriarch has committed a great crime of rebellion after all, so they are afraid in their hearts and want to take refuge in their relatives, who have a certain amount of power, are more comfortable in front of the saint, and have safety and security.

And Li Yuan's mother is the sister of Dugu Luo, the head of the Dugu clan, and those worried Dugu people are Li Yuan's cousins. Since everyone is related to each other, it is reasonable for them to come to defect.

"That being the case, Lord Nayu, our brothers will go first! After the completion of Jinyang Palace another day, let's get together again! Li Jiancheng waved his hand towards Yuming, but his expression was very calm.

Yu Ming returned the salute and said with a smile: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and my Yu clan is the same." Xian Kunzhong just go, there are me and Mr. Fang watching on the construction site, it's not a big problem! ”

When Yuming's figure was completely invisible, Li Jiancheng said to Li Shimin with a solemn face: "Second brother, Yuming was next to me just now, so it was difficult to say it for my brother, so I had to lie and say that there were relatives at home." Actually, it was the imperial court that sent an envoy who asked us to take Yuming and his men and send them to the Eastern Capital. ”

"What? How could there be such a thing? Isn't the Holy One very important to Yuming? After Li Shimin heard this, he was also very surprised.

"Who knows? Dad was waiting for us to go home and discuss how to deal with this. Li Jiancheng is colorful.

When people returned home, they saw that Pei Lin was already waiting at the door, and saw this brother coming back. He hurriedly said, "Young Master, Lord Shou has been waiting in the study for a long time, and there is something important to discuss!" ”

The person nodded, and followed Pei Lin into Li Yuan's study, but saw that Li Yuan and Liu Jing were very happy.

Seeing Pei Lian, Li Shimin and others coming in, Li Yuan also had a smile on his face and greeted: "Jiancheng, Shimin, Yuanji, you are back!" Sit down quickly, I didn't expect to encounter such a good thing this time. ”

After Li Jiancheng sat down, he picked up a cup of tea sent by the maid, took a sip, and then said a little puzzled: "Father, did you say that the special envoy of the DPRK and China wants us to arrest Yuming?" That's not a good thing! The saint must have wanted to shoot at the Yu valve. If the Yu valve falls, then we will be the only one in the Guanlongmen valve, and it will be difficult for us to speak alone, and it will be even more difficult to deal with the tossing and turning of the saints. Didn't the government all fall into the hands of the Shandong scholars represented by the Pei family? ”

After Li Yuan heard this, he laughed and said, "Completed, you are mistaken!" The Shengshang's arrest of Yu Ming this time is because Yu Ming committed the crime of rebellion, not to attack us to close the Longmen valve. On the contrary, the news that his father got from the court was that the saint felt that the suppression of the Guanlongmen valve had been suppressed enough, and now that the power of the Guanlongmen valve was declining, not only should it not be suppressed, but it should be supported. ”

After Li Jiancheng heard this, he also had a slight understanding: "Now there are only two major gate valves left in Guanlongmen Valve, our Li Valve and Yu Valve. Originally, the power of Yu Valve was far greater than that of our Li Valve, but if because of Yu Ming's crime of rebellion, the Holy Lord would definitely be very vigilant against Yu Valve, even if he didn't use Yu Ming's case to uproot Yu Valve, he would never reuse their people again. In this way, wouldn't he only have to support us Li Valve? ”

"Hehe, built, my father really didn't mistake you! You're smart enough to see that with a little pulling. Li Yuan touched his long beard under his chin and said with a slight smile.

Li Shimin saw that his father praised his eldest brother, but there was a trace of unhappiness in his eyes. He immediately said: "Father, since this is the case, then we will immediately send troops to arrest Yuming!" In this way, it is better to escort the Eastern Capital as soon as possible and deal with His Majesty. ”

"Don't worry! Yu Ming is now a turtle in an urn, and he is not in a hurry. Li Yuan raised his hand and shook it gently, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "It's easy to catch Yuming, but it's difficult to catch all his staff, personal soldiers, and entourage, so that no one can slip through the net." If one or two of his people run away, go back to Liaodong to report the news. Then the Liaodong Army will rebel...... Therefore, His Majesty's envoy also confessed again, and he must ensure that the news of the arrest of Yuming is not leaked, especially not to let the Liaodong Army know. ”

After Li Shimin heard this, he frowned slightly, secretly wondering how to do it without letting one person slip through the net? Now Yu Ming's personal soldiers are scattered all over the city, and some of them are still guarding the Jinyang Palace construction site and some other material storage sites. The list of these people is only available to Yu Ming, and unless they can get the list in Yu Ming's hands, they can use it as a basis to wipe out Yu Ming's people.

Not only did he find it difficult, Li Yuanji also said: "Father, there are several of Yu Ming's subordinates, and they are scattered everywhere, and they have no fixed residence, and many of them don't even know where they are now, how can we ensure that they can be arrested in one fell swoop?" ”

"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this!" Li Yuan smiled and said, "Liu Jing, you tell Jiancheng, Shimin and Yuanji about the plan we discussed!" ”

As one of Li Yuan's two major staff, Liu Jing participated in many important decisions and was deeply loved by Li Yuan. Hearing what the lord said, he shook the folding fan lightly, pretending to be mysterious: "Young master, the lord has decided to formally propose to Yuming and marry Miss Li Xiuning to him." In this way, when the marriage is made, Yuming will inevitably hold a wedding banquet, and won't all his subordinates come at that time? Then we will do it again at the banquet, and we will naturally capture Yuming's men in one fell swoop! Save yourself the hassle of searching around. ”

Liu Jing's words made Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji look at each other. They never expected that their father, Pei Lin and Liu Jing, the two major staff, would come up with such a beautiful plan.

Li Jiancheng immediately said: "Mr. Liu, Xiuning is indeed beautiful, and she is by no means worse than the four beauties of Luoyang." But Yuming already has the eldest grandson Wujian and Red Sleeves as his wife, how can he still agree to marry his sister? ”

After Liu Jing heard this, he laughed and said, "Young Master Jiancheng doesn't have to worry. Liu had already sent someone to investigate this matter, and Miss was deeply gracious to Yuming. not only led him to participate in the Lantern Festival Poetry Competition, but also made him famous at the meeting. also recommended Li Jing as his teacher and learned exquisite martial arts. It can be said that without the discernment of the young lady, there would be no today's young marshal Yuming. Moreover, according to Liu's secret investigation, both Miss and Yuming secretly have feelings for each other. If he is officially proposed, Yuming should agree, and Miss will not object. ”

After Li Jiancheng heard about it, he didn't object, he also knew that the younger brother of the family often couldn't be independent, anyway, the sister didn't really want to marry Yuming, but just arrested Yuming's group in the name of this.

However, Li Shimin and Li Xiuning have the deepest relationship, and after he heard about it, his face sank and said: "Having said that, my sister's reputation has been greatly affected." spread the word, and thought she was already married. If you want to find a good family in the future, it will be difficult. ”

Li Yuanji's face changed slightly, and he said coldly: "Second brother is quite considerate of his sister, but you don't need to do this, you can think of a foolproof plan." Now Jinyang Palace is almost complete. Yuming is also about to leave, and if he doesn't hurry up, I'm afraid that the task assigned by His Majesty will not be completed. ”

Li Shimin was suddenly speechless, and in desperation, he had to nod and say: "Since my father has made up his mind, it is not easy for Shimin to object, I just hope that I can find a good family for my sister in the future, so that she will not be lonely for a lifetime." ”

"Shimin, you can rest assured! As a father, he actually helped Xiuning find another good husband a long time ago, but he didn't dare to disclose his identity for the time being, but he must be a person you are familiar with and absolutely assured. When the time comes, he will naturally come out to meet everyone! Li Yuan said confidently.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Li Yuan was suddenly alert and shouted, "What person? ”

Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin walked over in an arrow and opened the door.

I only heard a "poof", and a sturdy body fell in. Everyone looked at it, and it turned out to be Li Yuan's Li Xuanba.

Although he is also Li Yuan's son, he has been a muddy man since he was a child, he only likes to dance with guns and sticks, and when he grows up, he makes a pair of sledgehammers, and has the courage of ten thousand people, even his two elder brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin are not opponents.

But his abilities seem to have grown all over his body, and his brain has not been clear, so Li Yuan did not let him participate in these major military events.

"Xuanba, why did you get here?" Li Shimin hurriedly helped him up.

"I was practicing hammer in the backyard, and after practicing for a while, I felt thirsty, so I wanted to come and find some water to drink. But it was not found in Keding. I thought there must be tea in my father's study, so I came over! Li Xuanba said in a humming voice.

After Li Yuan heard this, he pointed to his table and said, "I have a pot of tea here, you can take it and drink it, and remember to knock on the door when you come in next time!" So as not to scare everyone! ”

Li Xuanba naturally nodded yes, picked up the teapot and walked out of the door. And Li Yuan stood up at this time and said, "Since this is the case, let's get ready!" I'll go see Yuming later and talk to him about this marriage! ”
