Chapter 16: Enter the palace and face the saint

With this reprimand, Li Shimin walked over surrounded by a group of soldiers, with an angry expression, he had lost his past innocence and elegance, and the smile on his lips was no longer visible today, Li Haochen saw this, and knew in his heart that it seemed that today's events had dealt a big blow to King Qin, and he had obviously lost some of his square inches.

At the same time, Li Haochen also understood why Li Jiancheng captured Wei Chigong just now and did not order him to return home, it seems that he was obviously waiting for King Qin, but at this moment Li Haochen was also very curious, what was Li Jiancheng waiting for Li Shimin's arrival? Although Li Haochen didn't think about Li Jiancheng's backhand, he clearly knew that this matter would definitely not be saved like this, and he was looking forward to Li Jiancheng's follow-up performance.

Li Jiancheng didn't seem to see Li Shimin, and it didn't seem to hear him speak, until Li Shimin walked in front of him, Li Jiancheng seemed to wake up like a dream: "Ah...... What's wrong? What's the matter? Yes...... Second brother, why are you here? Why so many people? Li Jiancheng acted like he was really a person who didn't know anything, and he was really surprised when he saw Li Shimin.

However, everyone present knew that the prince was acting, and he did it on purpose, just to cool King Qin.

Li Shimin indifferently also knew the prince's purpose, so he was extremely angry in his heart, but when he saw Wei Chigong who was tied up by two guards, Li Shimin still held back and didn't get angry, after all, Wei Chigong is now in the hands of the prince, and the initiative is in the hands of the prince, Li Shimin is also helpless, so he can only say to Li Jiancheng again: "Big brother, why did you arrest General Wei Chi?" Can you give me an explanation? ”

Li Haochen looked at King Qin's low-level appearance from the side, he really had outstanding acting skills, as if he was really a weak person who was bullied and was powerless to resist. And looking at Li Jiancheng's performance on the other side, which pretends to be crazy and stupid, is even more innocent, Li Haochen thinks that if these two are placed in the 24th century, they can definitely be actors.

Li Jiancheng continued his performance of pretending to be crazy and stupid, his eyes were dull and confused, as if he couldn't understand what Li Shimin said again, and said, "What? General Wei Chi, do you mean that this murderer who was going to be assassinated just now, General Zhongwu and me? "Saying that he still pointed at his hand, Wei Chigong, who was tied up with five flowers.

Li Haochen secretly said in his heart, this Li Jiancheng is also scheming, not so wasteful as history is written, this hand pretends to be crazy and stupid, and then points to Wei Chigong and says that he is a thug, so he defines Wei Chigong, the advantage of this is that first, he avoided the head-on conflict with Li Shimin, and second, he determined Wei Chigong's crime, and completely took the initiative in his hands. I have to say that this is really a clever method.

When Li Shimin heard this, he also understood what Li Jiancheng's purpose was to pretend to be crazy and stupid, which made him very angry, first, he was angry that Li Jiancheng dug a pit for him, and secondly, he was angry and Chi Gong was not angry, and actually did the stupid thing of assassinating the prince on the street, and the most important thing was that he was arrested on the street.

Li Shimin didn't say anything, turned around and left.

Li Jiancheng snorted coldly and said, "Go home!" Saying that, the group escorted Yu Chigong, and then returned to the East Palace, on the way Li Haochen was puzzled, Li Jiancheng wasted a lot of strength to catch Yu Chigong, and then did not leave until Li Shimin came, and then said that Yu Chigong was the murderer who assassinated him, which was also a little unbelievable to him.

When the group was halfway there, they saw a chamber in the palace coming to everyone in a carriage.

The person who came was Emperor Li Yuan's personal person, surnamed Gao, this Gao Gonggong walked in front of the prince and said sharply: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the old slave has been ordered by His Majesty to pass on an edict to His Highness!" ”

Li Jiancheng smiled mysteriously, as if everything was under control, and said to this high father-in-law: "What did my father pass on to me?" ”

This Gao Gonggong heard the prince's question, and he didn't dare to slack off, after all, this is the future prince of the Tang Dynasty, and it is very likely to become his future master, although the prince and the king of Qin fight fiercely who wins and who loses, but as a servant who serves people, he can't afford to offend anyone, and hurriedly said to Li Jiancheng: "This old slave doesn't know, the emperor is in a hurry to pass on His Royal Highness, let His Royal Highness enter the palace immediately, and I hope His Royal Highness will not delay time." Speaking of this, this Gao Gonggong seemed to remember something, and said to Li Jiancheng: "By the way, Your Highness, King Qin is also in the palace, and he is with His Majesty at the moment!" ”

When Li Jiancheng heard this, his face leaked an expression that it was really like this, everything was under control, and he gave Gao Gonggong a gold ingot, and said to him: "Father-in-law, later, I will arrange to enter the palace with my father-in-law immediately!" ”

At this time, Wei Zheng hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to stop it, after all, Li Haochen had analyzed that King Qin might set up an ambush in the palace, which made Wei Zheng have to guard against it.

Li Jiancheng didn't wait for Wei Zheng to speak, and said: "Mr. Xuancheng, don't worry, I will bring General Wan Che and Haochen into the palace, there will definitely be no problem with safety!" ”

Wei Zheng listened to Li Jiancheng's words, and his heart was a little relieved, after all, Xue Wanche was superior in force, and if there was an accident, he could also protect the prince, and Li Haochen was quick in Wei Zheng's opinion and could help the prince deal with some emergencies. Everything was settled, Li Jiancheng briefly explained the affairs of the family to Wei Zheng, and then took Li Haochen and Xue Wanche to get into the carriage with Gonggong Gao, ready to enter the palace to face the saint.

At this moment, Li Haochen basically understood what Li Jiancheng's purpose was, he just wanted to make a big deal about it, see how Li Yuan dealt with this matter, if Li Yuan killed Wei Chi Gong, he would inevitably further suppress the forces of King Qin, because it had already made King Qin unhappy, he could not let him have the possibility of resisting, this was the emperor's mental technique.

If Li Yuan does not kill Wei Chi Gong, then he will inevitably suppress the prince, and at that time, the prince's position will be in jeopardy.

I have to say that Li Jiancheng is in danger this time, he is completely gambling, and then he bets that his father Li Yuan will favor him, although Li Haochen knows that Li Jiancheng is occupying the truth this time. But Li Haochen also knows that in feudal society, there is no reason at all, it is completely who is big and who has the final say, the emperor is Chrysostom, who he says is right, who is right.

At the same time, at this moment, Li Haochen was also thinking about how to help the prince, obviously it would be a bloody storm without a sword, Li Haochen knew that the struggle for power had always been murderous without blinking, which made Li Haochen have to work hard to prepare for it.

The group drove the carriage and soon arrived at the Taiji Palace where the emperor was located, which represented the supreme power of the Tang Dynasty, and was built very grandiosely, but Li Haochen did not look carefully, and was still thinking about how to help the prince for a while.

Gonggong Gao entered the hall first and went to report to Emperor Li Yuan, and after a while, Gonggong Gao came out again, and said to Li Jiancheng in a sharp voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor asked you to take the two generals in to see you!" ”
