Chapter 117: There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky

Liangyi Palace.

As Li You guessed, Li Shimin had already made up his mind, if it didn't rain at noon tomorrow, he would behead Li Chunfeng in public and punish him for the crime of bewitching the public.

As for Li Chengqian, he could only secretly reprimand him.

He called Ma Xuanliang and asked, "What did Li Chunfeng say?" Ma Xuanliang said: "Your Majesty, Li Chunfeng is determined that there will be rain at noon tomorrow at the latest. Moreover, he said that if it did not rain by then, he would admit in public that he had deceived the people with his own lies and asked to behead himself to set the record straight. ”

Li Shimin was a little moved in his heart, nodded and said, "Okay, you go and tell him, if that's the case, I will treat his family well." ”

Three o'clock in the afternoon, the palace of the king of Wei.

In this poetry competition, Li Tai gained a lot. The successful organization of the Poetry Society enabled him not only to be praised by Li Shimin, but also to gain Xiao Qian's obvious support. Although the old man did not make a clear statement, his actions clearly showed his attitude.

At the same time, through the poetry competition, he gathered many talented scholars, and his prestige among the scholars was further enhanced.

In order to commemorate this poetry competition, Li Tai approved the compilation of a poetry collection, which included the poems of the top ten authors participating in the poetry competition.

In order to please Xiao Qian, Li Tai decided to include Xiao Wanyu's poems, but to include her poems, it is necessary to include the poems of Changsun Chong, and it is inevitable to include the poems of Yu Chi Baoqi.

Li Tai knew that Yu Chi Baoqi was close to Li You, and when he was in school, he knew how stupid Yu Chi Baoqi was. He guessed that Yu Chi Baoqi's poem should have been written by Li You.

He was reluctant. But now that Yu Chi Baoqi is so famous, he has to include his two poems.

Li Tai is proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting, and he also writes good calligraphy.

At the moment, he is reviewing a book of poems, inscribed the name of the book on the cover, and painting it himself.

Li Tai was painting, and Changshi Wang Cong came in, he didn't slap Li Tai's paintings as usual, but hurriedly said, "Your Highness, something big has happened." ”

Li Tai put down the pen in his hand and asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"Your Highness, there is news from the inside of the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been reprimanded, and Li Chunfeng has been secretly imprisoned.

He overheard the conversation between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhang Xuansu, and it was said that the so-called matter of asking for rain was that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince colluded with Li Chunfeng in order to please His Majesty, and lied that it had rained recently, so His Majesty held a ceremony to pray for rain.

Li Tai was very surprised, and then smiled: "My eldest brother wants to make meritorious service and wants to go crazy, dare to use such a move?"

You immediately send someone to invite Yan Liben, and let's discuss countermeasures. ”

After Wang Cong left, Li Tai was in a very good mood, he picked up the paintbrush and carefully painted the cover of the poetry collection, the inspiration flowed, and the painting became more and more exquisite.

An hour later, Yan Li was born.

After listening to Wang Cong's introduction, Yan Liben was overjoyed and said, "Your Highness, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been able to get His Majesty's appreciation for doing things, so if we want to make this matter big and make His Majesty feel embarrassed, His Majesty will be even more dissatisfied with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who caused such a predicament.

From now on, the impression of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's incompetence will remain deeply in His Majesty's impression, and it will be difficult for him to turn over. ”

Wang Cong praised: "What Lord Yan has seen is extremely true. This is also the opinion of the minister. ”

Li Tai thought for a while and said: "This matter is a bit embarrassing, my father is in a difficult situation now, and the pressure on him between the government and the opposition is very great, let's make such a fuss, if he knows the reason, I'm afraid he will hate us." ”

Yan Liben said: "Your Highness has considered it. The minister's opinion is that if you spread this news secretly, and in the court, if you make a gesture to refute the rumors, Your Majesty will not suspect you. ”

Wang Cong said: "Yes, the minister suggests that this news be revealed to Xiao Fushu and Wei Zheng, so that they can come forward first." If they don't come out, let's let the imperial historians come forward to impeach Li Chunfeng.

As long as he bites Li Chunfeng to death and pulls out the radish with mud, he will involve His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

Yan Liben said: "Find a way to send a message to His Royal Highness the King of Shu, the minister thinks, he will definitely make a move." ”

Li Tai laughed, clapped his hands, and said, "That's it." Inform our people that tomorrow morning will take action!"

A storm is coming......

Imperial.

Concubine Yin was afraid of Concubine Yang, so she kept avoiding her and avoided meeting her. Therefore, she deliberately avoided coming to the imperial garden at the same time as Concubine Yang's garden habit.

This afternoon, Concubine Yin, accompanied by Qiaoyun, went for a walk in the Imperial Garden, thinking of resting in the pavilion by the lake. She had just turned around the rockery and saw Concubine Yang again.

Concubine Yin said in her heart: "Why can't I avoid her?" She reluctantly stepped forward, ready to accept Concubine Yang's reprimand.

This time, it was not that Concubine Yin couldn't avoid Concubine Yang, but Concubine Yang specially waited for Concubine Yin on the way to enter the Imperial Garden.

Concubine Yang was extremely grateful when she learned that Li You had saved Li Ke, but she felt very uncomfortable in her heart.

She has always looked down on Li You, and feels that her son Li Ke is an outstanding figure, how can she be reduced to the point of relying on a scumbag like Li You to save her life?

In the past few days, she has thought about it repeatedly in her heart, and feels that no matter what, Li You almost died in order to save her son, and she should still thank the concubine.

She hesitated for a few more days, and she really felt embarrassed today, so she specially waited for Concubine Yin here.

When Concubine Yin saw Concubine Yang, she saluted and said, "My sister has seen Sister Yang." ”

Concubine Yang stepped forward and grabbed Concubine Yin's hand and said, "Oh, sister, don't be polite, sister, I have come to thank you." This time, my family Ke'er encountered danger in Tuyuhun, although he was able to solve it himself. But your family You'er took the risk to save him, and this thought still touched my sister. ”

Concubine Yin said unconfidently: "Sister, don't dare to be, my family You'er is used to messing around, it's good that I didn't cause trouble to you." ”

Concubine Yang said: "Sister is polite, thank you very much." We are all people from the previous dynasty, so we should be closer to each other in the future and help each other. ”

"Yes, sister, sister knows." Concubine Yin said respectfully.

After Concubine Yang left, Qiao Yun said angrily: "What His Royal Highness the King of Shu can solve by himself." The slave maid heard from Uncle Guo that if His Royal Highness King Qi hadn't risked his life to save him, he would have been killed a long time ago, and she was embarrassed to say......"

"Enough, Qiaoyun, how many times have you been talked, don't say such things." Concubine Yin said.

"However, it is clear that ......" Qiaoyun was not convinced.

"Okay, if you talk more, I'll punish you." Concubine Yin was angry.

"......" Qiaoyun shut up and didn't say anything, but his eyebrows were unconvinced.

Shu Wangfu.

Quan Wanji heard the rumors released by Li Tai and others, and hurriedly came to see Li Ke.

After Quan Wanji finished talking about the situation, he said excitedly: "Your Highness, this is a great opportunity to hit the crown prince." ”

Quan Wanji originally thought that Li Ke would be very happy, but he saw that Li Ke's brows were tightly locked, and he didn't squeak for a long time.
