Chapter 328: The War Begins
Li Ruxiang firmly believed that if it weren't for His Majesty's insane madness to gather military power, Li Qianyi would definitely be able to become a vassal king with tens of thousands of troops.
The idea is good, but Li Ru doesn't want any of the emperor's relatives to have such heavy military power, even if he doesn't collect military power, Li Qianyi can't get to the next Li Zizhen's point.
Li Ruxiang glanced at his eldest son with slanted eyes, "Qianyi, you are not such an impulsive person, why don't you have a door to speak now?" King Ming came as soon as you opened your mouth? You also said that it is a family, and you should be called uncle. ”
"Dad, the little brother has become like this, now is not the time to say this, if King Ming refuses to hand over people, then he will cut off relations with King Kang's Mansion!"
"Presumptuous!"
Li Ruxiang scolded, "Hugh is messing around, this king has his own measure, I won't let my son suffer for no reason." ”
"Then why are you still sitting here, Dad, go ask for someone!"
Li Ruxiang looked at the eldest son's eager expression, and his heart was also relieved, saying that the emperor's house was the most ruthless, and the fight between the children was extremely cruel, but what made Li Ruxiang most proud was that his two sons got along very well, Li Qianyi never thought about the family business, and threw himself into the barracks, trying to take a soldier to defend King Kang's mansion, although Li Qianting said that he was extremely ruthless, but he was not concerned about the family business, as long as he was given a stable life without shortage of silver, it was completely impossible for him to take care of the palace.
Seeing that the two sons gave in to each other, unlike other Wang families who excluded each other, Li Ruxiang couldn't stop the wrinkles on his face just thinking about it.
Li Qianyi snorted in annoyance, facing his father, he didn't want to put his anger on his face, but he was a little dissatisfied and asked, "Dad, can you still laugh?" ”
"There is a deep brotherhood between the two sons of this king, why can't they laugh?
"The little brother is like this, there is no point in us arguing or not, and ......"
Li Qianyi paused as he said and continued, "Actually, this is all discussed between me and my younger brother, and the two of us don't fight for the throne, just by my father's arrangement." ”
When Li Ruxiang heard this, he was interested, these two sons usually don't interfere with the river water, they play their own games, but they didn't expect to have an exchange, "You two still have a conversation about the palace?" ”
"The royal family of the entire Great Zhou only has His Majesty, the three princesses and the four families of King Kang of the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty's family is the crown prince, the third princess has not been married so far, the king of Ming has a boy and a girl, these three families will not have any disputes, only King Kang's mansion is the second son, if we fight openly and secretly, it will only weaken our own strength."
Li Ruxiang smiled loudly, "Does Qianting still know about this kind of thing?" ”
"Although the younger brother is smiling, he still has his own opinions in the face of right and wrong, I told him about these relationships, and he directly agreed, he told me that he would not ask for anything from the palace, as long as he was guaranteed to have silver flowers in the future."
Li Qianyi sighed, such a sensible younger brother was seriously injured by that thief and is still unconscious.
"Fart!"
Li Ruxiang said angrily: "He understands the rights and wrongs of a fart, if he really understands, he will not provoke Gongsun Jian at this juncture!" ”
Li Ruxiang's sudden anger made Li Qianyi also startled.
"Dad, maybe the little brother is the character of a gentleman, and he wants to give him a dismount, but he didn't expect that thief to be so bold."
"You know your brother very well!"
Li Ruxiang said: "Gongsun Jian secretly entered Beijing, saying that it was a secret, but in fact, it can only be understood, not spoken, how many officials are staring at you do you know?" Do you know how long it has been since the capital has not summoned foreign generals to Beijing? It's been almost thirty years! Who was the last military general summoned into the capital? It is Song Rong, who is now commanding 300,000 troops! How many people are afraid that there will be another Song Rong in the Great Zhou, and the forces of all parties are almost very tacitly waiting for the opportunity to make a move, so that Gongsun Jian died violently in the Ming Palace, as far as I know, three assassinations were organized before and after, all of which ended in failure. All forces have seen it, this Gongsun Sword can't move! ”
"I want to kill, but I can't move, because Your Majesty doesn't want Gongsun Jian to die?"
"Your Majesty must not be far from Gongsun Jian to die in the capital, but you can't find out who did it?"
"What does this have to do with my brother this time?"
"He's an idiot! This king sent someone to ask the Oiran of Baifeng Pavilion, and he directly said the words that let Gongsun Jian die! ”
Li Ru stood up immediately and scolded, "He directly pushed King Kang's Mansion to the forefront!" Now that the Imperial City Division and the Zhenfu Division are estimated to be moving, there are definitely people from all sides around our palace who have come to inquire about the news. And you, you're an idiot too! You think I didn't know you were gathering some Praetorian Commanders? If you don't want King Kang's Mansion to fall, hurry up and let them go back where they came from! ”
"But that's it......"
"Do you want to watch King Kang's Mansion collapse?"
Li Ruxiang brushed his sleeves and said: "You are still too young after all. ”
"Isn't it true that the little brother's affairs are ignored, doesn't Your Majesty want Gongsun Jian to be a secret, we can pretend not to know and make a big fuss."
"This king is not ruthless to that extent, he must ask, but it is definitely not to ask for the crime, the law of the Great Zhou is there, you can ask it in a proper way, King Ming must be determined to protect Gongsun Jian, and there are forces from all sides watching, you must not use force or assassination, in other words, Gongsun Jian is very safe now, and King Kang's mansion is not safe."
Li Qianyi was in a trance, he understood, his younger brother did this, and he moved his whole body, and he pushed King Kang to the crest of the wave.
In the past, all forces wanted to move Gongsun Jian, and if Gongsun Jian died in King Ming's Mansion at that time, the spearhead would definitely be pointed at King Ming, but now Li Qianting was stupid and let Gongsun Jian be sanctioned, so that all eyes were focused on King Kang's Mansion, and all forces were staring at King Kang's Mansion, and they had no time to care about Gongsun Jian's life and death, and they didn't dare to move Gongsun Jian at this juncture.
But in other words, if Gongsun Jian has any accident at this time, the most suspicious object must be King Kang's Mansion, because King Kang's Mansion is the one who has the most reason to kill Gongsun Jian, if His Majesty has some suspicions about Ming Wangfu, as long as these suspicions are established, His Majesty can not take care of his face before and can't check King Kang openly, but now he will definitely use the mouth of the "ministers" to investigate, once it is investigated, His Majesty will definitely be determined to bring down King Kang's Mansion.
Which high-ranking official's buttocks are clean, and some problems of turning a blind eye will be infinitely magnified during a thorough investigation, and finally make King Kang's mansion irreversible.
Li Qianyi thought of this, a cold sweat broke out, and he also knew why his father was suddenly angry, and now this situation is definitely the life and death of King Kang's mansion, and one wrong step will fall into the abyss.
He knows very well that the bottom of King Kang's Mansion is not clean, and the close connection with the third princess has been laid out on the surface, so it is difficult to say anything, but if he touches the melons and checks on the third princess, then these two families will really be doomed.
The third princess is still in contact with Li Zizhen, and King Kang's mansion also has some unspeakable secrets with Li Zizhen.
Li Qianyi exhaled heavily, and the anger and mature and steady feeling in his body disappeared in an instant, more than three points of fear and seven points of fear, at this time, he was more like a child who had done something wrong.
"Daddy...... What do we do now. ”
Li Ruxiang patted his head and spit out a word.
"Wait."
Li Qianyi didn't know what to wait for, and at the same time, he didn't dare to ask more, since Prince Kangyi had to wait, it must be an extremely important matter or person, so he had to sit in the hall honestly and wait for the factor that hoped to change the status quo.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was not until evening that the steward of the palace bowed in and whispered, "It's here." ”
Li Ruxiang suddenly opened his eyes, "Please come in!" ”
The steward respectfully retreated sideways, and a figure wrapped in black cloth walked outside the door, and even there was a heavy black hat on his head, Li Qianyi was very curious about how to see the road clearly wearing such a heavy black.
This person looked sideways slightly, Li Ruxiang was very sensible and drank back the housekeeper, and said, "Why are you so late, let me wait." ”
"I came at noon, but I went back with too much eyeliner, and I didn't come in until I relaxed for a while, and I was still discovered, but you don't have to worry, everyone who saw me was killed."
"That's good! That's good! ”
Li Qianyi was shocked, the person wrapped in the black cloth turned out to be a woman!
The woman seemed to see Li Qianyi's expression, she turned her head to "look" at Li Qianyi, "In a blink of an eye, it's all so big." ”
"You are ......"
The woman took off her hat, revealing a face that was not particularly good-looking, but very delicate and comfortable, and it was impossible to tell how old she was from her appearance.
"Qianyi, don't you remember your aunt? I hugged you when I was a child, and at that time you were still urinating on this palace, and at that time, this palace threw you to the ground in a fit of anger. ”
The woman seems to have such a temperament, and she speaks extremely fierce words in very light words.
Li Qianyi recognized this person as the third princess, and the drop of sweat on his forehead finally dripped down, and he replied with a smile: "That's Qianting, and the little nephew was watching from the side." ”
The third princess stepped forward and gently wiped the sweat from Li Qianyi's eyes, "Auntie is not a man-eating tiger, by the way, is Qianting dead?" ”
"No, but seriously injured and unconscious."
"That's a shame."
"Auntie, what do you say......"
The third princess looked back and smiled, "If you look at the overall situation, is there anything wrong?" ”
"And anyway, it will definitely be a waste person in the future, but it is better to die and have some value, Lord Wang, are you right?"
Li Ruxiang took a deep breath, indeed, what the third princess said is not unreasonable, if Li Qianting dies, they can do more, and they can even go directly to the palace to ask for someone, or go to the palace to cry and make trouble and hang themselves.
Li Ruxiang said lightly: "Since you are not dead now, you must have the idea of not dying." ”
"It's not, the criminal department has communicated with the palace, there is no big problem, even if the Qianting takes the lead in hurting people, but that kid is too heavy, he will definitely be sentenced to prison, and when the time comes, he will use some means in the prison to kill him."
"But His Majesty will summon him to the palace, and if he dies......"
"Didn't you always want him to die?"
Good one of you, the third princess directly left herself clean.
Li Ruxiang said: "This is different, when Gongsun Jian did not surface in the past, even if he died, His Majesty didn't know who did it, but now it's different, he is now like a poultry surrounded in the courtyard, as long as he has an accident, my Kangyi Mansion will suffer, and in the end it will implicate some people who shouldn't be in the bureau." ”
After hearing this, the third princess's eyes suddenly became gloomy, and she said softly: "This palace is just joking." ”
"The joke should also be appropriate."
"If you can drag it out, you can drag it."
The third princess continued: "Liu Changshui, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is a person from this palace, and when the time comes, I will let him delay it for a day, he will not dare to delay it for only half a day, if something happens to me, he will also suffer." ”
"But the last time Gongsun Jian and Yu Youjun entered Beijing, didn't they go to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department?"
"They just went to solve some trivial matters, and Liu Ershao now hated Gongsun Jian to the core."
Li Ruxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then how long are we going to delay, and what are we waiting for?" ”
"The palace doesn't know how long it will last, anyway, at least Gongsun Jian can stay in prison for two months, unless His Majesty really wants to show his partiality and order Gongsun Jian to be released, in that case I have nothing to say."
Li Ruxiang asked again: "Two months later...... What will happen? ”
Li Qianyi listened to his father's question, and felt that his tone was a little trembling, and even his face was a little unreasonably nervous.
