Chapter 684: Confused Case (5)

But anyone who plays politics, unless he is a rookie, otherwise, he must be quite skilled in observing his face and color, Li Zhen is naturally also a master among them, this time Li Xian's eyebrows are beating, as if there are signs of madness, not only do not panic, but secretly rejoice, and his face twitches, and he is ready to make a deputy grievance - the case is not difficult to solve, but it can't be solved at all, if you can't provoke a chaotic war between the East Palace and the Empress Wu, Li Zhen's plan to fish in troubled waters is afraid that some people can't play it, only Li Xian jumped because of "wronged", Fang is a good opportunity for Li Zhen to take advantage of the trend.

"The afterglow of the sword? This is something else, this palace has been practicing knives for many years, and I dare not say that the world is invincible, but I can also be regarded as a good player, why haven't I heard of this, can the eighth uncle explain one or two for this palace? ”

Li Zhen's emotions brewed very quickly, but unfortunately it was in vain, although Li Xian's brows were tightened, but he quickly stretched out again, and he did not show any violent performance, but smiled slightly, and asked lightly.

"This ......, so that His Highness can know that the old minister does not know the way of swords, and he really doesn't know anything about it, but that Immortal Sun said so, maybe there is no way to say it."

couldn't wait for Li Xian's frenzy, Li Zhen couldn't help but be a little disappointed, her heart moved quickly, and she explained a few words hesitantly, but there was still a hint of instigation in her words.

"Oh? Even so, this palace seems to be the biggest suspect in the eyes of the eighth uncle, or not, since the eighth uncle is ordered to investigate the case, the palace should fully cooperate, and the eighth uncle wants to check the palace, so please do it, no matter who or where, as long as the eighth uncle wants to investigate, the palace is not allowed. ”

Li Xian didn't eat Li Zhen's set at all, as if he didn't investigate anything about the instigation, and he didn't get angry, but put on a posture of fully cooperating with the investigation.

"Don't dare, don't dare, the old minister has no such intention!"

Give Li Zhen a few more guts, he doesn't dare to openly search the palace, in case nothing is found, it is a big crime of bullying the king, even if Li Xian doesn't care, the bullets of the ministers below are enough to drown it, not to mention that after it spreads, under the scolding of the people of the world, the Yue Wangfu family will not want to raise their heads to be a person again, at this time, when he heard Li Xian say so generously, Li Zhen couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly explained a sentence.

"It's okay, the eighth uncle has a holy purpose, how dare this palace not cooperate, otherwise, spread it out, so that the people of the world will see this palace, huh?"

Li Xian had already guessed Li Zhen's intentions here, but he didn't intend to break it, but blindly pretended to be stunned.

"Your Highness laughed, the old minister didn't dare to be so rude and illegal, last night, His Royal Highness was drunk, the old minister also witnessed it, what Sun San said must be framed, the old minister should be the saint, and punish his crimes!"

The reason why Li Zhen wanted to record Sun San's confession earlier was to use it to bargain with Li Xian, but at this time, seeing that Li Xian did not take the bait, he was not angry because of this, and he knew that the original calculation had fallen into the void, and he was disappointed, but he had to cheer up his spirit and comfort Li Xian.

"I can get the eighth uncle as proof, and the suspicion of this palace can be regarded as most of it, but if you don't check it, it will be inappropriate after all, so that the eighth uncle has arrived, please investigate it thoroughly, and return the innocence of this palace."

Li Zhen has retreated again and again, but Li Xian still refuses to withdraw his troops, and he insists on asking Li Zhen to investigate thoroughly.

"This ......"

Li Xian said it very generously, but how dare Li Zhen really do this, being forced again and again, there was already sweat on his forehead, and he didn't know what to say with a bitter face.

"Uncle Eight doesn't need to worry about it, let the next person do these little things, the palace and chat with Uncle Eight here, and after a thorough investigation, then make a plan, Gao Miao, go, pass on the palace order, and announce that all the people on duty last night will gather in front of the Ganlu Hall and accept the thorough investigation of Uncle Eight!"

Li Xian didn't care whether Li Zhen was embarrassed or not, and gave the order with a solemn face.

"No, slave obeys!"

Since Li Xian had already ordered this, Gao Miao, who was on the side, didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly answered, not caring about Li Zhen's feelings, he hurriedly withdrew from the study and made arrangements without mentioning it.

"Your Highness, this is to put the old minister on the stove."

The matter has come to this point, it can't be done without investigation, Li Zhen felt like eating Coptis chinensis, but she couldn't have a seizure, so she could only wrinkle her old face, shake her head and sigh.

"Eighth Uncle don't worry, this palace will make this matter clear at the meeting, and it will never embarrass Eighth Uncle, come on, show Eighth Uncle a seat!"

Li Xian left the palace secretly last night, except for Zhang Khan Zhi and a few other henchmen, no one else knew, he was not afraid of people to check, at this time Li Zhen sent it to the door by himself, Li Xian was happy to borrow his hand to reveal the "truth" to the world, of course, check and investigate, it is all a façade for outsiders to see, if you really want to completely expose the case, but you still need the cooperation of Li Zhen, after all, Li Xian does not want to leave the slightest opportunity for the Empress Wu to take advantage of the possibility of this case.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

It should be difficult to escape the infamy of the palace ban on the left and right, Li Zhen also let go, didn't say more, and after thanking him, he immediately lifted the hem of the king's clothes, sat down, glanced at Li Xian with a slightly dark face, and stopped being angry.

"Stand down!"

Since it is to talk about cooperation, it is natural that Li Zhen can't just let Li Zhen carry the black pot, and the sweetness that should be given must be given after all, otherwise, I am afraid that this old boy will inevitably use some crooked brains, this truth Li Xianzi knows very well in his heart, at this time, when he saw Li Zhen put on a posture of resignation, he couldn't help but laugh, but there was no word on the side, just waved his hand indifferently, and all the eunuchs who accompanied him withdrew from the study.

Li Zhen's main purpose here is naturally to reach an agreement with Li Xian, in addition to dealing with this case, he is more interested in getting some benefits from Li Xian, so even if he was forced to carry the black pot before, his heart is actually not as ashamed as it seems on the surface.

"Well, the eighth uncle is quite detailed in investigating the case, yes, with such a spirit, the truth of this case must be revealed to the world as soon as possible."

After the group retreated, Li Xian did not rush to speak, but quietly flipped through the stack of documents submitted by Li Zhen, and after a long time, he raised his head and praised with great satisfaction.

"The old minister is ashamed, although today's investigation is detailed, but there is really nothing, the case is foggy, the old minister is really a little embarrassed to start, I don't know what His Highness can teach the old minister?"

The ridicule in Li Xian's words was very strong, but Li Zhen didn't dare to care, because of this case, without Li Xian's cooperation, he couldn't get through it by relying on his own strength alone, let alone saying that it was ridiculous, it was ridicule, and Li Zhen could only pinch his nose and endure it.

"Uncle Eight's words can make this palace embarrassed, this case is the eighth uncle's trial, this palace An dares to say anything?"

Li Xian really wanted to help Li Zhen close the case smoothly, but he had a heart, but it was impossible for him to fall into Li Zhen's hands, so he would not rush to come up with a plan, but shirked it in embarrassment.

"The old minister is already incompetent, His Royal Highness has always been wise, please give some guidance to the old minister, Your Majesty and the mother are still waiting to reply, alas, if it really doesn't work, the old minister has to be cheeky to resign, I want to come to the mother should be approved."

Li Zhen also came prepared, when it comes to the ability to bargain, he will not be bad, this time Li Xian said to shirk, he immediately made a melancholy look, the words did not leave the martial arts, there is a great sense that if Li Xian refuses to stretch out his hand, he will go to the martial arts queen to cooperate.

"Well, the queen mother has always been a saint, so she should understand the difficulties of the eighth uncle."

There is not much evidence left in this case, if you want to point to Li Xian's head, unless it is a false accusation, otherwise, there is no possibility at all, he doesn't care about Li Zhen's threatening words, besides, Empress Wu is not a fool, how can he unconditionally help Li Zhen tide over this difficulty, if Li Zhen does this, except for handing over the handle to Empress Wu, he will definitely not get any benefits, and this, in Li Xian's view, is the most fundamental intention of Empress Wu to recommend Li Zhen to deal with this case, in view of this, How could Li Xian be blackmailed by Li Zhen's threatening words.

"Your Highness."

Seeing that the words and pleadings could not be pleaded, and the threats were ineffective, Li Zhen couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in her heart, so after praising her, she simply closed her mouth and put on a posture that the dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

This old boy is really slippery, and he actually played Lai Pi!

Seeing Li Zhen put on such a dead face, Li Xian was really angry and funny, but it was not good to attack him, besides, although Li Xian had the intention to expose the case earlier, but the time to speak had not yet come, so he didn't want to speak in a hurry, so he simply closed his mouth and made a gesture that it was not about him, and the uncle and nephew were silent with their own thoughts, and the study was strangely quiet.

"Your Highness, all the people who were on duty last night have assembled outside the hall and are on standby, please make it clear to Your Highness."

Just when the uncle and nephew were silent, there was a loud sound of hurried footsteps, and Gao Miao, who was covered with sweat, had already turned out from behind the screen, hurriedly grabbed in front of Li Xian, and hurriedly bowed down to report a sentence.

"Well, very good, Eighth Uncle, the people have arrived, so I asked Eighth Uncle to send someone to investigate thoroughly."

Li Xian nodded quietly, looked at Li Zhen expressionlessly, and spoke in an unquestionable tone.

"This ......"

Knowing that it was categorically impossible to find out what was famous, but because of it, Li Zhen didn't want to give this order, the problem is that now, this refusal is really unspeakable, after all, it is his mission to investigate the case by order, and he can't help but panic for a while......
