Chapter 181: Li Yun's Conspiracy
A few days later.
Dai Quan was assassinated, and Xin was spared from being killed with the help of a mysterious person.
The assassination of the four members of the imperial court, the matter was quickly stabbed in the court, after Li Shimin learned the news, Long Yan was furious, he did not name his surname, but he also guessed the same.
Cheng Chumo and Fang Yiai are dead, how could the people behind him let him go.
Among them, Fang Xuanling and Cheng Zhijie are the ones who want him to die, of course, there is no evidence to prove it, but anyone with a discerning eye can see it.
For this reason, Li Shimin deliberately said in the court: "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't want this kind of thing to happen in Chang'an City again, if even the officials who enforce the law impartially are killed, then I don't know what the people in the city should think?"
The world is not stupid, if Dai Quan dies, everyone understands what the reason is, just because of impartial law enforcement, kill Fang and love them.
"Heaven and earth are clear, there is fairness and justice, if the law enforcers are unable to escape death, can you know that all the people in the world are in danger, the empire is in danger, I hope this is the first time, and the last time, have you heard?"
While Li Shimin spoke, his eyes looked left and right at Fang Xuanling and Cheng Zhijie, and the two of them also understood the holy will and did not dare to do anything wrong.
Since then, no one has ever stabbed Dai Quan again.
And Dai Quan also knows who the person who assassinated him is, of course, he also understands the person who saved him.
No, Dai Quan brought a pot of good wine and tea to Yunwang's Mansion.
"Lord Wang, the ministers are shy and can't afford expensive gifts, please don't blame Your Highness." Dai Quan said.
Li Yun is not a greedy person, he took the tea and said: "Eating wine and drinking tea is a great blessing in life, Lord Dai has won my heart, haha~!"
Subsequently, Li Yun invited Dai Quan to dine together and drank the wine and tea he brought.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Dai Quan also left.
Li Yun returned to his room and planned what he was going to do next.

On this day, Li Yun was summoned by Li Shimin to enter the palace, and in the Hanfeng Palace, Li Shimin was reviewing the chapters, and the crown prince Li Chengqian was also in the palace.
Seeing Li Yun coming here, he glanced at him with a vicious afterglow, but Li Yun turned a blind eye.
"The son knocks on his father."
Li Shimin slowly raised his eyes and said, "Get up."
Li Yun stood aside after getting up and asked respectfully: "Dare to ask my father what happened when he summoned his sons into the palace?"
"This is an impeachment note from Weizhou, you can take a look at it first."
The old slave of the king of Tang took the chapter and sent it to Li Yun's hand, and after taking it, Li Yun took a careful look at it, and then said: "Weizhou assassin Shi Chai Lingwu enclosed the land privately, causing the people to be displaced? Father, this is absolutely fake. ”
"I also felt that there must be something hidden in it, so I had already sent someone to Weizhou to secretly investigate this matter." Li Shimin said.
"Chai Lingwu is the son of Chai Da's commander, how can he privately enclose land for these petty profits, and the imperial court has clear regulations on the matter of enclosure, and Lord Chai will never knowingly commit it." Li Yun said.
It is precisely because he is Chai Shao's son that Li Shimin feels that something is wrong, and the sin of enclosing land is not small, just like our officials today who go to the countryside to buy land and build private estates after embezzlement and bribery.
"Not only that, but there is also a Chai Lingwu who collects money and accepts bribes here." Li Shimin took out the second piece of music.
It is clearly written on this recital that Chai Lingwu embezzled a total of 200,000 taels of silver, 5,000 taels of gold, and countless other precious calligraphy and paintings, treasures and other things, with a total value of more than 1 million.
After Li Yun finished reading it, he said: "Erchen thinks that this matter still needs to be investigated, and it cannot be explained to the outside world before the matter is revealed."
Li Shimin nodded and said: "You and I want to go together, only I, the prince and you know about this matter, if it is publicized, it must be spread by the two of you."
"The son is as tight-lipped as a bottle." Li Yun hurriedly said.
"It's the same with Erchen." Li Chengqian said not to be outdone.
……
Recently, there have been a lot of worries, Li Shimin's body is also tired, he only feels that his neck is sore, and his face is not very good, Li Yun said: "Father, look at your pale face, but you must pay attention to the dragon body, state affairs are important, but the body must not relax."
Li Yun could see at a glance that Li Shimin was in poor health, which made Li Shimin very pleased, on the other hand, the prince was idle all day long, not to mention that he couldn't see his physical condition, so he said that Li Shimin asked the same question as Li Yun just now.
Li Chengqian's answer was not an accident, but blindly refuted Chai Lingwu.
In between, the verdict is superior.
"I'll pay attention, so stand down." Li Shimin said.
"Father, why don't you take a break in your busy time, how about the sons and princes accompany you to go out of the city to relax?" Li Yun proposed.
Li Shimin did not rush to agree, but asked Li Chengqian: "Prince, what do you think of King Yun's proposal?"
"My father is tired, and my sons also think it's a good choice to go outside the city for a walk." Li Chengqian readily agreed.
Seeing that Li Chengqian also agreed, Li Shimin agreed happily, he put down the cinnabar pen in his hand to correct the recital, and said: "The weather is good, do you two have such filial piety, then accompany me to take a walk outside the city."
After the three of them changed their outfits, they only took Qin Huaidao alone, and the four of them rode to the outside of the city, and they stayed in the imperial city for a long time, and it was also comfortable and natural to go around in the wild occasionally.
After coming to the outside of the city, Li Shimin looked at the green in his eyes, and his heart felt much more relaxed, breathing fresh air and stretching his arms.
After playing, the four of them rested in front of a riverside stream, and Li Yun put his field skills into practice, caught a hare, and roasted it on the fire.
After Li Shimin ate it, he was full of praise, and they took the wine bag they brought to drink, and a happy spring outing really made Li Shimin happy.
His health has also improved a lot, and he is full of praise for King Yun, of course, the prince has also contributed.
In just half a day, it has passed quietly, Li Shimin and they are also about to return to the city, when they are walking on the official road and are about to reach Chang'an City, they suddenly hear the sound of swords in the distance.
Qin Huaidao immediately became nervous, Li Shimin was also a person who had seen the world, so he was not afraid, but ordered Qin Huaidao to go to the front to see what was happening.
After Qin Huaidao gave the order, he threw himself away, and about a quarter of an hour later, Qin Huaidao came back: "Back to Your Majesty, it was a couple who came to Beijing to sue the emperor and were intercepted and killed halfway."
"In broad daylight, you dare to kill someone, how can you reason to find that couple." Li Shimin said.
At this time, Li Yun showed a smile on the corner of his mouth.
