Chapter 56: Li Ke's Ambition

Mo Shuyu was cut by Cheng Biting Jin and fled back to his Zhuangzi, just after eating and about to rest, the porter came to report that there was a person outside who claimed to be the king of Hanzhong to ask to see him, and handed over a gift book.

Mo Shuyu took the gift and glanced at it, obediently, this gift is not light, ten opals in the Western Regions, ten pearls in the East China Sea...

"Did he say anything to see me?" Mo Shuyu couldn't understand what Li Ke was for, could it be that he was the person behind Liu Donglou?

"Lord Hou, the king of the county handed over the gift book and the villain came in, and he didn't dare to ask more." The porter replied resignedly.

"Take him to the study, don't rush to receive the gift first." Mo Shuyu didn't understand what Li Ke wanted to do, and he didn't dare to accept his gift.

"Haha, why does His Royal Highness the King of the County have time to come to my mansion today?" Mo Shuyu waited in the study for a while, Li Ke knocked on the door and entered, Mo Shuyu couldn't understand Li Ke's intention today, so he had to snort.

"Ke listened to Hou Ye's dream of Yangzhou in ten years in Yichun Courtyard yesterday, and won the name of Qinglou Bo Xing. I'm here today just to make friends with Master Hou. ”

Mo Shuyu naturally wouldn't believe his nonsense, why didn't he show friendship to himself when he was in Yichun Courtyard yesterday? But wait until today Lao Tzu said in the court that he must fight the Turks? Isn't it just that I am afraid that the Turks will be defeated at that time, and I found that the person behind Liu Donglou is not in the Turks, but in the Tang Dynasty. Isn't it to show favor now that the person behind Liu Donglou is him?

"The king of the county came to the boy's mansion for this?" Mo Shuyu grinded by himself, and wrote on the fine rice paper with a pen.

Li Ke stepped forward and glanced at what Mo Shuyu had written. "Bright people don't talk darkly, and best friends don't talk nonsense."

"Master Hou is talented, Ke really came here today to make friends with Lord Hou, and by the way, apologize to Lord Hou for the events of the past few days." Li Ke saw that Mo Shuyu already knew his intention, so he had to pay a gift straight to the point.

"Oh? So Liu Donglou is really your person? Mo Shuyu saw that Li Ke had expressed his intentions, and his heart was indeed like this. sat on the chair and looked at Li Ke.

"Sort of, Liu Donglou is a member of the internal guard under Emperor Yang of the former dynasty. The royal family of the previous dynasty was slaughtered, and the head of the internal guard secretly contacted his mother. But Hou Ye rest assured, neither the mother nor I have the idea of returning to the country, and the mother just wants Ke to fight for the position of the Son of Heaven. Li Ke also knew that now the matter could not be concealed from Mo Shuyu, and he poured all the beans in one go.

"You told me everything like this, aren't you afraid that I will report to Your Majesty? Fornication with the remnants of the previous dynasty is a capital offense! Mo Shuyu slapped the table, stood up, and stared at Li Ke.

"Ke came here today, so naturally he knows that Master Hou won't." Li Ke smiled, and did not dodge and stared back at Mo Shuyu.

"Hahaha, how do you know I won't?" Mo Shuyu couldn't figure it out, it was obvious that he was worried about him at this time, why was he still so calm?

"Because Master Hou needs the power in our hands." Li Ke smiled and seemed to grab Mo Shuyu's little tail.

"How can you be so sure?" Mo Shuyu smiled, this feeling of being controlled by others made him very unhappy. Since coming to Datang, it seems that every step he takes is led by someone.

"Although Master Hou is now in a high position, it seems that there are few people around him who can be used, although my father sent someone to protect you, but you only have the ability to protect yourself. If you cooperate with us, our internal guards can be sent by you at that time, and the warriors will no longer be a threat to you. Li Ke smiled, stood aside and said his chips.

"And what do you need me to do?" Mo Shuyu doesn't believe that there can be pies in the sky, such a good thing, I'm afraid Li Ke's requirements will not be low.

"I know what you discussed with your father today, I only hope that the person who goes to the Turks is me!"

"No way, even if I promised you, Your Majesty wouldn't agree. Originally, His Majesty would have suspected you of this matter, and if it weren't for the one in the Turks, His Majesty would have suspected you first. "Mo Shuyu took the Turkic plan too seriously, and it was impossible for Li Ke, a person he couldn't control, to go to the Turks.

"As long as you can mention this to my father, I have a way to get my father to agree to it." Li Ke didn't know where the confidence came from, how could Li Shimin let him go to the Turks?

"Now that the Turkic War has not started, Hou Ye should still think about it. Ke took his leave first. ”

Li Ke smiled, turned around and walked out of the study.

"Why does Your Highness have to go to the Turks?" Mo Shuyu didn't know why Li Ke had to go to the Turks against the limelight, wasn't he worried about Li Shimin's suspicions at all?

"Hmph, I just want my father to know that in addition to my background, I am no worse than the eldest brother and the fourth brother!" Li Ke listened to Mo Shuyu's words and looked back at him, said this sentence word by word, and then turned around and left.

Mo Shuyu can also understand Li Ke's mood, he is originally a great talent, and even Li Shimin said that he saw his own shadow from Li Ke. It's just that he didn't have anything to do with the throne because of his background, and Mo Shuyu also heard about Li Ke in later generations. Because Li Ke had this special status of the Sui Dynasty clan, it was difficult for him to be accepted by the courtiers. Think about it, in that era when feudal etiquette was supreme, how could the civil and military courtiers who followed Li Yuan's father and son through life and death to fight the country, how could they let the emperor throne of the Tang Dynasty return to Emperor Yang of Sui.

As for the eldest grandson Wuji of the national uncle at that time, he regarded him as a thorn in his side, if he hadn't strongly opposed Li Ke as the crown prince at that time, I am afraid that the history of the Tang Dynasty would have to be rewritten.

When Li Zhi ascended the throne and the eldest grandson Wuji took power, the subsequent development of events became more and more unfavorable to Li Ke.

So now that there is a history of Mo Shuyu's changes, Li Ke will naturally not give up this opportunity. As for why he went to the Turks despite the limelight, this matter is intriguing.

"Uncle Fu, you send someone to tell Your Majesty that the King of Hanzhong County has come to our mansion today to ask for a meeting." Mo Shuyu still adheres to his usual style, since he can't figure it out, he doesn't want to, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. Don't think about hiding this, I don't know how many Li Shimin's people are outside the door, and I don't know what Li Ke thinks, so he came to visit so openly.

"Oh, it's Master Hou, how should the little one report to His Majesty?" Uncle Fu also knows how big this matter is, this is fornication with the remnants of the previous dynasty is like a rebellion, a capital crime!

"Tell the truth, we can't hide it." Mo Shuyu didn't want to waste his brain cells too much, so he waved his hand and asked Uncle Fu to call someone to tell Li Shimin, and he went back to his room to rest.

Although Mo Shuyu didn't seem to care much about this time, he was also thinking about what hole cards Li Ke had to come to him in such a big way.
