Chapter 836: Exhaustive Schemes
The news that Li Zhi took the initiative to ask for a captive ban was so shocking that even Li Su, who had always been calm in the face of things, was so shocked that his brain was dazed, and he didn't react for a while. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This change was completely unexpected by Li Su, and it can be said that the whole thing was beyond his control.
Feng Du's assassination was both a crisis and a turning point, and Li Su personally created this incident, not only to keep Li Zhi in Chang'an, but also to use this incident to help Li Zhi gain political capital and achieve the goal of competing for the crown prince with Li Tai, the king of Wei.
With Li Su's original plan, when the rumors in Chang'an City were in the dust, intensifying, and when it seemed that Li Zhi was about to be submerged, Li Su took the initiative to throw out the truth of the case and wash away the grievances for Li Zhi.
It's a pity that Li Su still underestimated the eldest grandson Wuji after all.
The heroes of the world are all people who have been through the storm for a long time, how can they be played by Li Su in the palm of their hands? The old fox is an old fox after all, not only saw through Li Su's plan at a glance, but also quickly came up with countermeasures to counterattack, and one blow directly hit Li Su's soft underbelly.
Li Zhi entered Zongzheng Temple, and he was in big trouble.
Zongzheng Temple is a place dedicated to dealing with the children of the royal family who violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty, that is, the predecessor of the Zongren Mansion in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zongzheng Temple is one of the nine Qings, and has always been served by the elders of the royal family, this place is good to enter and exit, once it is confined to it, torture and torture may not be, but it is not so easy to come out, especially when Li Shimin identified Li Zhi as the murderer of Feng Du, Li Zhi completely cut off the hope of competing for the prince.
After laying out a good game of chess, he was beaten into a disadvantage by a sudden change, and Li Su's mood at the moment was about the same as being whistling by 10,000 heads of *****, and being trampled to the ground.
In contrast, Li Yifu was also being crushed back and forth by 10,000 heads of ***** at the moment.
"Grandpa Li, it's time for you, don't make trouble, please take an idea seriously......" Li Yifu wiped the sweat on his forehead and smiled bitterly.
The heavier the utilitarian heart, the heavier the gain and loss heart, since he defected to Li Su, for Li Yifu, he chose to stand in line, everyone's common goal is to assist Li Zhi, help him ascend to the throne of the crown prince, and finally successfully ascend to the throne.
However, the heavens did not obey people's wishes, Li Zhi was inexplicably caught in a murder case, was imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple, and just stood in line, but the captain was gone, which really made Li Yifu frightened and chilled.
It's not just about the future, it's about life.
In contrast, Li Su was not so panicked, it happened suddenly, he was indeed stunned for a while, and now he has gradually regained his composure.
Li Yifu, Xu Jingzong and Pei Xingjian's faces were ugly, but Li Su still looked calm, and his expressions were inexplicably calm.
"Grandpa Li, you just said that there are two ways, one is to let the lower officials stab King Wei to death, this ......" Li Yifu's cheeks twitched a few times, and said, "This...... The lower officials thought, uh, it's not very appropriate, right? I don't know what Grandpa Li's second method is? ”
Li Su perked up and smiled happily: "Although the second method is very negative, it is very useful......
Facing the expectant eyes of the three people, Li Su was full of excitement. Said affectionately: "...... Let's break up! ”
The three were dumbfounded: "............"
“…… Isn't it beautiful that you go back to your Gao Laozhuang, and I go back to my Huaguo Mountain, and live happily and unrestrained? ”
Three: "............"
If it weren't for the fact that this guy in front of him was too high, how beautiful it would have been for the three of them to get up and beat him halfway through!
After an awkward silence, Li Yifu's eyes were bloodshot, and a few words burst out from between his teeth: "Grandpa Li, please, it's really not to make trouble!" ”
Li Su couldn't help but sigh in disappointment when he saw that the three of them looked wrong.
It's hard to find a soulmate......
"Okay, seriously, no kidding." Li Su is weak and authentic.
The three of them immediately straightened up and listened respectfully.
Li Su pondered for a moment, and suddenly sighed dejectedly: "I'm sorry, at this moment, I really don't know what serious things to say...... The King of Jin was imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple, the situation is unknown, Feng Du was assassinated for no reason, a subordinate who was wiped out, and a guard of the King of Jin who inexplicably connected with him, it is clear that someone fabricated evidence behind his back, in a vain attempt to confirm the suspicion of the King of Jin, and set the case as an iron case, now the King of Jin is imprisoned, their goal has been achieved, and now the court is angry, and the courtiers continue to go up and down, asking Your Majesty to severely punish the King of Jin, I am afraid that in a few days, Your Majesty will have to issue an order to reduce the King of Jin to the common people, the King of Jin is wronged, how do you and I deal with ourselves? ”
Li Yifu's face became more and more ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "Right and wrong, there will be a day when the truth will come out, even if it is difficult for the King of Jin to defend himself now, he will always be wronged in the future." ”
Li Su sighed: "Young Eunuch Li is also a long-standing person, don't you know the danger?" King Wei wants the position of the East Palace and regards the King of Jin as his confidant, how can he allow the King of Jin to clear his grievances? The only living guard who is the so-called guard who connects with the people of the Feng Mansion is probably already a pawn buried by the other party next to the King of Jin, and it is almost equivalent to the other party's dead soldiers, it is impossible to pry anything out of his mouth, if you want to clear the grievances of the King of Jin, it is not easy to talk about it. ”
Li Yifu sighed dejectedly: "Is it impossible to just give up like this?" ”
Li Su lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said: "No matter what, I must meet King Jin first, and there are some things that I have to talk to him face-to-face, and only after we can talk thoroughly can I find a way to clear his name." ”
Looking up at the three of them, Li Su said: "Zongzheng Temple is a forbidden place for the children of the royal family, and it is difficult for ordinary officials to enter, who of you has a way for me to enter Zongzheng Temple to see King Jin?" ”
The three of them looked at each other, Xu Jingzong pondered for a long time, and suddenly hesitated: "The old man used to have a colleague in the matter, and he had a very good relationship with the old man, and later the old man moved to the Firearms Bureau, and that colleague was transferred to Zongzheng Temple to serve as a temple officer, but unfortunately he has gradually become sparse with the old man over the years, and I don't know ......."
Li Su was overjoyed and said busily: "It's good to have friendships, and it's okay to be a little lighter, so Uncle Lao will run around." ”
Xu Jingzong smiled bitterly: "I don't know if that colleague still remembers the old love ...... back then."
Li Su smiled confidently: "The old love is the old love, and there should be no less, my uncle sent thousands of gifts to the past, presumably for the sake of the face of the gift, he will not refuse, just begging him to let me meet with the King of Jin, it's not a big deal, uncle, what do you say?" ”
Xu Jingzong nodded: "That's the same reason, then, when the old man stops for a while, he will take the money away, and buy a few luxurious gifts tomorrow to visit him......"
Li Su's smile suddenly stiffened a little: "...... Take the money away? Whose money? ”
Xu Jingzong was stunned: "Of course it's yours." ”
Li Su's face changed several times, and then he forced a smile: "...... Recently, it has not been very convenient to have money, and at the moment of crisis, what is my uncle still thinking about these details? Uncle Qian will help me put it on first, and I will return it after King Jin gets out of trouble. ”
Xu Jingzong's cheeks twitched: "...... Will you really give it back? ”
"Uncle looked at my sincere gaze, did you see it? The eyes are full of integrity! ”
************************************************************
Xu Jingzong is still very reliable, he visited the colleague that day, thousands of bribes are very effective, and the money is smashed open the Chrysostom of the Zongzheng Temple, Li Su came to the door of the Zongzheng Temple the next day, and the temple who received the gift was waiting for him at the door, and the two walked in with a swagger.
Zongzheng Temple occupies a small area, just a set of five large mansions, the front garden is the office of the officials of Zongzheng Temple, and the third into the back goes inside, which is the wing room that confines the children of the royal family.
This is logically reasonable, after all, Li Shimin also wants to save face, how noble is the identity of the royal family of the Heavenly Family, Zongzheng Temple, a place that is specially designed to get along with the children of the royal family, if you get a prison bigger than Taiji Palace, is it possible that all the children of the royal family are traitors?
It is said to be a forbidden place, but in fact, the environment in Zongzheng Temple is still very good, and the guards are not strict, probably because no one dares to escape from the children of the royal family who are imprisoned.
The two entrances of the vestibule are the office of the office, which is no different from the other offices of the Tang Dynasty, the red wall of the roof tiles is quite dilapidated, and the scenery is very different when you enter the third courtyard. There are two teams of guards on duty in front of the arch of the courtyard, Li Su stepped into the arch with a waist card, and was greeted by a dense courtyard forest, with a narrow and winding path in the middle, cool and quiet, with a breeze blowing from time to time, accompanied by bursts of cicadas and insects. There is a rockery in the courtyard, a hexagonal pavilion on the mountain, and the path next to the rockery is the left and right rows of wings.
The temple man who had received the heavy gift personally led the way, led Li Su to the door of the third wing room on the right, pointed to the door silently, then smiled at him, and then bowed and then retreated with interest.
Li Zhi, who was imprisoned, lived in this room.
Li Su pushed the door in, and saw Li Zhi sitting cross-legged on the mat alone, with a decadent and sad face, but Zhou Zheng's clothes were messily draped on his body at the moment, revealing a small piece of chest that was not too strong.
As soon as the light at the door dimmed, Li Zhi frowned and raised his head, seeing Li Su standing at the door, Li Zhi couldn't help but be stunned, and then stood up in surprise.
"Brother Zizheng! What are you doing here? Are you also ...... by your father?"
Li Su glanced at him and snorted: "I hope I'm better, are you unlucky and still want to drag me on my back?" Besides, even if your father wants to punish me, I don't have the right to live here......"
Li Hefa was happy: "So, Brother Zizheng is here to visit me?" ”
Li Su didn't bother to answer him this time, and turned his head to look around the room.
The room is quite simple, but it is not shabby, the low table and cabinet are new, and there is no strange smell, it seems that the treatment of the imperial concubine is really different, and even the prison is so enjoyable.
There are several books and a candlestick on the table, one of which is spread out, and most of it has been read, but it is the "Group Book Zhiyao" compiled by Wei Zheng and Yu Shinan and other officials in the early years of Zhenguan, and this volume on the table happens to read the Jin book part.
Li Su swept his eyes quickly, and then smiled.
"I still don't forget to study after being confined, you didn't study so diligently before, and you were absent from school for three days, Chu Suiliang couldn't wait to hang you up and smoke you to death."
Li Zhi smiled embarrassedly: "No one locked me up before, the world is so big, so many delicious things, fun places, where can I calm down and study?" Now that I'm confined to this square inch every day, I can't move an inch, what else can I do besides studying? ”
Li Su smiled approvingly, then pointed to the book that was spread out, and said: "Reading is a good thing, but "Qunshu Zhiyao" is a book about governing the world and governing the government, before the position of the East Palace is decided, it is not appropriate for you to read this, it is easy to give people a handle, make the enemy more vigilant, and it is easy to make your father suspicious." ”
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly, with a look of shame, said: "If it weren't for Brother Zizheng's reminder, Zhi almost made a mistake again......"
Sighing in despair, Li Zhi's little face twisted into a ball, and he said gloomily: "The position of the East Palace is in danger, as soon as things start, I fell into other people's calculations, and now even if I read any book, I will hide a murderous intention, but I don't realize it, it seems that I really am not the ......material to be a prince."
After speaking, Li Zhi looked up at Li Su, and his pitiful eyes made people feel distressed.
It is said that at this time, Li Su should immediately send fresh, delicious and nutritious chicken soup to appease the poor little prince's broken glass heart.
Who knew that Li Su was in good spirits when he heard this, and said with great joy: "I wanted to tell you this for a long time, and I haven't been embarrassed to speak, since you have figured it out, it's even better, let's break up, you are your free prince, I will continue to eat and wait for death, what is the prince, that position is neither delicious nor fun, far less pleasant than counting money at home, so happy to decide, farewell and farewell, you are here to reform well, I will wait outside for you to be released from prison and be a new person......"
After saying that, Li Su got up, patted his ass and walked out.
Li Zhi was stunned, Mu Ran's expression gradually turned into grief and indignation, and he looked at Li Su's back stupidly.
What about the chicken soup that is said to be good? What about being each other's angels? What's going on now?
