Who was it that leaked what was supposed to be a seamless covert operation?

This question has gradually become the biggest mystery haunting Li Chengqian's heart. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Theoretically, everyone in the East Palace is worthy of suspicion, Li Chengqian has long known that the East Palace is not the East Palace of his prince, but the East Palace of his father, and all the people who serve him in the East Palace, from subordinate officials to eunuchs and palace maids to guards, are full of his father's eyes and ears, and the prince's every move is in his hands.

However, when Li Chengqian arranged the operation that day, he deliberately avoided everyone in the East Palace, and called Liu Hui, the personal guard, to a secret place in the garden, and quietly taught him the opportunity, and it stands to reason that this matter could not be leaked.

However, the result of the incident slapped him in the face, Zhang Xuansu was rescued, and one of his side was killed and one was captured, which can be said to be a complete failure. Obviously, others have laid a trap waiting for him to drill, Liu Hui, this person Li Chengqian is trustworthy, all these years the personal guards around him have been dead to Li Chengqian, Liu Hui has no reason to betray him at this juncture, it can be seen that when the garden was arranged that day, there must have been a second person who heard it.

Li Chengqian really wanted to find out this person and then break the body into pieces.

…………

Early the next morning, Chang'an was full of wind and rain.

When the news of the assassination of Zhang Xuansu, a subordinate of the East Palace, spread, the East Palace reacted first, not only did the eunuchs come to the door with heavy salutes to greet Zhang Xuansu on behalf of His Royal Highness the Prince, but also the guards of the East Palace also poured out of the nest, searched for suspicious people everywhere, took down the panicked people and sent them to the Yongzhou Assassin Mansion for interrogation.

Then there were rumors that a certain prince coveted the position of the East Palace, and secretly sent someone to assassinate the subordinate officials of the East Palace, intending to cut off the prince's arm and take the situation of the lonely prince.

Now the Yongzhou Assassin's Mansion is lively, starting from the morning, there are constantly the guards of the East Palace from Chang'an Street to catch people in, for a time people come and go, endlessly, the Assassin's Mansion is full of kneeling in front of a long row, shouting injustices earth-shattering. Yongzhou Assassin Shi Pingbai suffered a catastrophe, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, he couldn't do it if he didn't want to, and when the guards arrested people, they passed the prince's edict and ordered the assassin Shi to be strictly interrogated, and he must find out the real murderer who assassinated the subordinates of the East Palace, and avenge Zhang Xuansu, the son of the left concubine.

Not only that, but Li Tai, the king of Wei, was also innocently shot.

Who else can there be besides the "certain prince" that everyone is talking about? As a super-seeded player competing for the crown prince's position, assassinating a subordinate of the East Palace is certainly very much in line with the style of this seeded player, who else can do it except him?

Li Tai was very sad and indignant when he heard the rumors all over the city, and hid in the palace and jumped to his feet and scolded Li Chengqian for being despicable.

I do want to push you down, and I really don't see anyone to help you and support you, but ...... How could I possibly do such a stupid thing that would reveal itself at first sight? Normal people wouldn't do that, let alone me, a celebrity who has read poetry and books and is extremely resourceful? Li Tai deeply felt that this rumor not only fooled the public, but also insulted his own IQ, but the rumor became more and more powerful, but Li Tai was indefensible, and took the initiative to defend himself, but he was suspected of becoming more and more black, so he had to hide in the palace and scold the street, extremely aggrieved.

I have to say that Li Chengqian's backbite was very hard, not only taking out his suspicion, but also pitting King Wei in turn.

It's just that people are not as good as heaven, and Li Chengqian still miscalculated after all.

He didn't count Zhang Xuansu's reaction.

Zhang Xuansu seems to be weak, but he must not be bullied. As early as the fourth year of Zhenguan, he was a ruthless character who scolded Li Shimin face-to-face on the golden palace of the court, and he was not even afraid of the emperor, but he was still afraid of a prince?

After the incident last night, Zhang Xuansu was rescued, and after Zheng Xiaolou sent him back to the house, he arranged for a few people to stay near the front and back doors of Zhang's mansion until dawn.

After Zhang Xuansu went through the initial panic, he returned home and pondered carefully, and it became clear who the assassin was.

He has offended a lot of people in his life, but there are not many people who dare to send assassins to kill him, perhaps, there are only one or two, if you think of the recent case he sued the prince, the prince was broken a leg, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, naturally come out.

Not to mention...... When he was assassinated that night, the gang that rescued him captured an Assassin alive.

The assassin was originally a dead man, and once he failed, he would resolutely bite the poison to commit suicide, but the premise was that the poison could be consumed, and Zheng Xiaolou unloaded the poison embedded in his teeth as soon as he caught him, and then tied him up and tortured him, a dead man who could not find death fell into the hands of the perverted Zheng Xiaolou, and at the beginning he was a good man who was really a good man for half an hour, but Zheng Xiaolou's torture methods were too painful and perverted, and after tasting four or five kinds of the same, the dead man couldn't stand it, and he was happy to do all the tricks.

Zheng Xiaolou brought the assassin to Zhang Xuansu, and the dead man confessed everything in frustration, and then Zheng Xiaolou threw the assassin to the servants of Zhang's house, patted his ass and walked away.

The human and material evidence were all there, and Zhang Xuansu was angry.

He didn't expect that the prince hated him to the point that he wanted to get rid of him quickly, heaven and earth can be seen, everything he did was for the sake of the Tang Dynasty!

Zhang Xuansu after crying behind closed the door, happened to meet the eunuch of the East Palace who came to comfort the frightened eunuch in the early morning, Zhang Xuansu was stunned for a moment and immediately understood Li Chengqian's intentions, and couldn't help but be furious, and ordered the gifts and eunuchs to be thrown out of the door, and then Zhang Xuansu put on his court clothes, accompanied by the servants to the Taiji Palace, knelt down facing the palace gate, and cried loudly.

The plot reversed in vain, and the rumors spread immediately, it turned out that the assassin who assassinated Zhang Xuansu was actually the instigation of the prince of the East Palace!

The people of Chang'an City are so happy, this unexpected and fresh topic, this plot is reversed and full of suspense and high. The reversal plot of the tide, as well as the hot headlines that keep competing for the list......

Your circle is too chaotic, and the people are really heartbroken for the powerful circle of Datang.

…………

The people of Chang'an talked about it, and it was not a big deal to see the excitement, but the court was completely shocked by Zhang Xuansu's stirring up.

Zhang Xuansu knelt in front of Li Shimin, with a handful of snot and tears telling the danger of being assassinated last night, and behind him was the assassin who was captured alive.

Li Shimin's face was expressionless, until Zhang Xuansu finished speaking, and personally interrogated the assassin a few words, the assassin was originally a lieutenant under the command of the crown prince Zuo Qianwei, and his identity had been confirmed, and he was basically sure that the prince's suspicion could not escape.

After sending Zhang Xuansu away, Li Shimin sat alone in the main hall, his expression gloomy and his eyes calm.

After sitting without saying a word for a long time, Li Shimin suddenly ordered to summon the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Jing and other important ministers to meet in the Ganlu Palace.

When the ministers arrived, Li Shimin threw the Assassin's confession to them.

After everyone circulated it one by one, their expressions suddenly became very exciting.

The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned for a while, Fang Xuanling raised his white eyebrows, and returned to normal, but Wei Zheng was angry and took the case, and was the first to go crazy.

"Zuo Shuzi Shao Zhan Shi is known as the 'Half Teacher', His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dares to kill the teacher, and it is a big rebellion!"

Li Shimin looked at him expressionlessly: "Wei Qing thinks, why deal with it?" ”

Although Li Shimin's expression can't see the clues, today he called everyone together and showed everyone the ugly thing that the prince had done, which in itself was a very strong signal.

Li Shimin's desire is easy to save!

It's just that he can't say this by himself, because he set the rules for standing tall and not young, and he can't slap himself in the face. Therefore, the original intention of calling these important ministers over was to let them take the initiative to speak.

Wei Zheng's eyelids jumped, although the old man is used to being famous for his direct advice, but he is not a fool, he can mix to the point that he can scold the faint king in the palace and make Li Shimin a mirror of his clothes, which is enough to prove that Wei Zheng is not always upright, and most of the time he knows the benefits and disadvantages.

What is "stake"? It is best not to talk nonsense when discussing such a sensitive matter as the crown prince, otherwise it will lead to death. Once the idea of Yi Chu is expressed, it means that he has openly declared that he is in line, and if there is a change in the situation in the future, he will not end up well as the person who openly stands in line.

So after Wei Zheng's mind turned, he snorted, sat down heavily, and didn't say a word.

Li Shimin turned his eyes and looked at Fang Xuanling: "Xuanling can have a high theory?" ”

Fang Xuanling has been the prime minister for many years, and the internal and external affairs of the Zhenguan Dynasty are properly taken care of because of him, and he does things impeccably, but being an official is a little slippery, especially when it comes to the future monarch of the Tang Dynasty, and he does not dare to express his position easily.

"This ...... Has Your Majesty verified it? Fang Xuanling asked cautiously with his long beard.

Li Shimin nodded: "I have personally asked, and it has been verified, and it is indeed the prince's doing." ”

Fang Xuanling was stunned, it was not easy to take these words, he muttered for a long time, and had to arch his hand: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is His Majesty's son-in-law after all, and the minister wants to ask His Majesty's meaning." ”

Li Shimin's face was a little dark.

A question kicked over and over like a ball, and the sentence that everyone wanted to say but didn't dare to say, everyone gathered together for a long time without saying anything.

Li Shimin glared at him hatefully, and then turned his expectant gaze to the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled bitterly, he couldn't hide.

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded what Brother Xuanling said, after all, he is His Majesty's son-in-law, and the minister wants to know His Majesty's meaning first."

Li Shimin sighed, okay, he was kicked back again.

Looking at Li Jing again in a blink of an eye, Li Shimin simply didn't bother to ask. After being impeached by the Turks, he took the initiative to resign from the military, handed over his post, declared that he was closed to the outside world, did not change his rules for many years, and was much more cautious and cautious in his life than in the early years of Zhenguan.

Too lazy to fight with these old killers, Li Shimin simply said bluntly: "I want to know what I mean, then I tell you, the prince has been mourning and immoral and lawless in the past few years, and has the atmosphere of a faint monarch and a mediocre king, if this person will be in my position in the future, I am afraid that it will not be the blessing of the society, so I am determined to ......"

Everyone immediately straightened up, and the hall was so quiet that they could hear a needle dropping, waiting for Li Shimin's next words.

Li Shimin slowly glanced at everyone, and said word by word: "I am determined...... Depose the crown prince and set up another East Palace! ”

knew that Li Shimin would say something, but when he really said it, everyone was still shocked.

Looking at everyone's sluggish expressions, Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Do you have any objections? ”

But they did not speak.

After waiting for a while, Li Shimin raised his voice and asked again: "Do you have any objections?" ”

Finally, the eldest grandson Wuji spoke, hesitated for a moment while holding his green beard, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the decision...... Is there a bit of a rush? ”

Li Shimin didn't raise his eyelids: "There are many bad deeds, I am not worthy of being a king, this is a well-known thing, I only obey the will of heaven and respond to the people's feelings, why do you say it in a hurry?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji sighed: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in every possible way, but after all, he is the eldest son of His Majesty, only this identity, you can't depose it lightly, depose the eldest son and set up another East Palace, undoubtedly give the Tang Dynasty's door valves, scholars and people an excellent excuse for them to attack Your Majesty, abolishing the elder and the young, is the source of the chaos, Your Majesty, please think twice." ”

After the eldest grandson Wuji finished speaking, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and the others nodded one after another.

Li Shimin sneered: "I have been thinking twice for many years, since the ninth year of Zhenguan, the prince's words and deeds have changed greatly, and there are often immoral behaviors, I have endured it again and again, but he has intensified, Zhuqing, if such a person becomes the emperor in the future, can you imagine what kind of damage he will cause to the Tang Dynasty?" That's the disaster of the country! (To be continued.) )
