Chapter 38: The Distance Between Tea and Salt (Part II)
"So serious?" Li Er was taken aback at first, and then said, "Daddy, this kid naturally doesn't dare to mix, he just wants to inquire about the reason." "Li Erzhi is so honest, "The child and Gao Shilian's nephew, Sun Wuji, are good friends, and besides, don't you have to worry about it.......... Besides, you and Gao are also friends, when you get the news that Gao Daren was arrested, the child also happened to have tea with their brothers and sisters in Taibai Building, and saw that their brothers and sisters were pitiful, if Gao Daren went in, wouldn't it be ........ It's because I don't know why Lord Gao was arrested, so the child wants Daddy to inquire about the news for them, and the child really didn't expect to be so widely implicated........"
"Erlang, Erlang, I don't know what to say about you as a father, you, you're really going to make trouble for your father........" Li Yuan said helplessly before he said: "There is some trouble this time, Gao Shilian was involved in Yang Xuangan's rebellion, His Majesty ordered him to be arrested, his father was present at the time, His Majesty was angry, I ........ it when I see that persuasion is useless."
"Gao Shilian was involved in Yang Xuangan's rebellion?" Li Er suddenly felt a little stammered, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Daddy, this is unlikely, right?" Lord Gao is just an official in charge of etiquette, and he has been in great prospering at the time of the incident, how can he be involved in Yang Xuangan's rebellion? ”
"It's indirect." Li Yuan said in a low voice: "Erlang, you don't know, the official army broke through Yang Xuangan's camp, seized a large number of traitors' documents, and found that Hu Sizheng, the secretary of the military department, was Yang Xuangan's accomplice, Yang Xuanzong and Yang Wanshuo, the two of them, fled back to the Central Plains from Liaodong with the secret help of Hu Sizheng. Wei Xuan Wei Wensheng's old thing rushed this matter to His Majesty, and His Majesty ordered Hu Sizheng to be arrested, but he didn't know that the news leaked in that link, and Hu Sizheng that guy actually ran away in advance. ”
"Then, Daddy, what does this have to do with Gao Shilian?" Li Er is another one.
"What's the hurry? Listen to the Father. Li Yuan scolded softly, and said in a low voice: "This morning, I received the news that Hu Sizheng and Gao Shilian had fled to Goguryeo, surrendered to the Goguryeo barbarians, and wrote a letter of allegiance to the Goguryeo barbarian king Gao Yuan, in which he scolded Jinshang, His Majesty was furious, and ordered the arrest of Hu Sizheng's family and his henchmen. ”
"So serious? Got involved with a traitor? Li Er's handsome face changed color a little, but he still refused to give up, and asked in a low voice: "Then Daddy, who is the words to Your Majesty?" ”
"Who else?" Li Yuan glanced at his second son as if he was an idiot, and snorted: "Except for Pei Yun, who else can this guy be?" He is a doctor of imperial history, responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, in such a matter, who will work hard if he doesn't work hard to invite credit? Besides, this guy is being implicated in the matter of his son Pei Shuang, and he is in a hurry to make meritorious service and atone for his crimes, completely clear his suspicions, can he not bite desperately, in addition, Yu Wenshu, Yu Shiji's guys have not come to add fuel and vinegar, and I am afraid that my father alone will not be able to fight these traitors.........."
Li Er was a little stunned when he heard this, how is this good, treason is a big crime, if it is, if it is, what should I do with my favorite Guanyin???
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, seeing that his second son looked preoccupied, Li Yuan patted Li Shimin and Li Er's shoulder, "Erlang, don't worry, Pei Yun rectified Gao Shilian in order to be anxious to confess his loyalty and completely clear the suspicion brought to him by his son Pei Shuang, at this time, no matter who comes forward to act for Gao Shilian, Pei Yun will regard him as an enemy, at this time I come forward to make an enemy, it is not advisable!" ”
Li Yuan paused and said, "In fact, the Gao family and the eldest grandson brothers and sisters are also blindly nervous, Gao Shilian will not die, Gao Shilian has a deep friendship with Hu Sizheng, but there is no evidence that he actually participated in Yang Xuangan's rebellion and knew in advance that Hu Sizheng betrayed the country and defected to the enemy, and now there are so many important ministers and magnates involved in Yang Xuangan's rebellion in the court, no matter how ruthless Pei Yun is, he does not dare to treat Gao Shilian's capital crime because of this, stimulating important court ministers like Laihu'er and Zhou Fashang, and his father estimated that in the end, Gao Shilian was exiled, when the limelight is over, it is easy to save him. ”
"I see." Li Er breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitated, and Li Er bowed his hand to Li Yuan and said, "Daddy, the child has a small request, please Daddy must agree." ”
"Huh? Jiro, let's talk about it. Li Yuan replied.
"After rescuing Master Gao Shilian, please ask my father to propose to him by the way, and ask him to marry his niece Guanyin to the child." Li Er blushed and said: "Actually, not long ago, Uncle Gao already had this intention, but the child did not ask for Daddy's consent and did not make decisions without authorization, taking this opportunity, the child wanted to promote this matter." ”
"No wonder my son is so nervous, it turns out that there is another reason." Li Yuan laughed loudly and said: "No problem, Guanyin's maid and the girl have seen it for her father, she is dignified and beautiful, and she has a good background, and she is indeed a natural pair with you. ”
"The boy thanked his father." Li Er was overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted Li Yuan, and the delicate face of the eldest grandson Xiao Lili also appeared in his heart, and he secretly said in his heart: "Guanyin, we are going to be together soon." ”
He didn't know that this was just his wishful thinking, when he went to Gaofu with an anxious mood to inform the eldest grandson brother and sister, he was surprised to find that the entire Gaofu was surrounded by water, and Li Er showed that his identity as the second son of Tang Guogong was ruthlessly denied entry.
Li Yuan thought that no one knew about his, but he didn't know that as soon as he went to court the next day, after His Majesty Yang Er executed several cores of Yang Xuangan's rebel group, Yuwenshu didn't wait for Li Yuan to make a move, so he labeled Li Yuan as an intent to rebel, and also took out detailed evidence, "Tang Guogong, you said that you have no objection, how can the rebels such as the eldest grandson Shunde and Liu Hongji hide in your fiefdom, and still contact those gate valves under the banner of your Tang Guogong??" And what your cousin Lee Hyo-gi did, you dare to say without your permission? The 10,000 essence armor and 1,000 good horses you gave Yang Xuangan are also fake? ? If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do....... Tang Guogong!! ”
Yu Wenshu held a stack of detailed reports, and smiled very sinisterly, "Tang Guogong, do you want the old man to read it to you?" ”
Although His Majesty Yang Er is tyrannical, he is also a smart person, he has long known that his cousin is not honest, and he has to beat it well, but Li Yuan is the head of the Li family in Longxi, one of the four families of Guan Longsi and one of the five surnamed Seven Wang, the strength is strong and deep-rooted, and he can't do anything with him for a while, but under suppression, it will be easy to lose his face.
