Chapter 147: Li Tai Enters the Palace (I)
The dead fat man who had an enmity with him in Gao Ming's mouth was none other than Li Tai, the king of Wei, and at this time, he was following the eldest grandson Wuji in the direction of the forbidden garden. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience. ()
The reason why Li Tai and the eldest grandson Wuji came to see Li Shimin together was not because Li Tai took the initiative to come to see Li Shimin, but because he had to come.
Before, he first asked Zheng Yunyin to deal with Gao Ming, and then let people spread rumors and seriously injured the two, although Gao Ming cracked them one by one, but he was also seen by some well-intentioned people.
There is no shortage of smart people in Datang, and there is no shortage of smart people who are keen on politics, and the eldest grandson Wuji is one of them.
The eldest grandson Wuji knew that Li Tai had always had thoughts about the position of the crown prince, and this idea gradually turned into ambition under Li Shimin's concern for him, and the call for the deposition of the prince in the court at that time was becoming stronger and stronger, in this case, Li Tai seemed to have taken the position of the crown prince as his own bag.
In the past few years, Li Tai has not gone to his fiefdom, and tried his best to stay in Chang'an, the purpose is because he is waiting, waiting for an opportunity for Li Chengqian to make a big mistake, and then he can smoothly replace him.
Li Tai's idea is very good, but unfortunately, in the process of patiently waiting for Li Chengqian's death, Gao Ming has unknowingly replaced Li Chengqian, so Li Tai is destined to be disappointed.
In the past two months, Gao Ming's performance has been getting better and better, and the position of the crown prince has become more and more secure, and by the time Li Tai realized this, it was too late.
Li Tai sadly found that at this time, Gao Ming not only won the favor of many ministers in the court, but also won the support of Li Shimin, and even the officials he sent out to discredit Gao Ming were beaten to death by Liu Bing outside the main hall.
Such a result was unacceptable to Li Tai.
"No, I can't just throw in the towel, I have to fight again!"
As the saying goes, "grit your teeth and fight, a bicycle becomes a motorcycle", but unfortunately, Datang has no bicycle, let alone a motorcycle, and Li Tai failed again. 一秒記住【千千小說w w w.x q q x o m】,為您提供精彩說閱讀。
Although the Yanguan he sent to attack Gao Ming survived this time, he was stripped of his official uniform and driven out of Chang'an, and this incident also made the Yanguan have a deep fear of Gao Ming, and they also distrusted Li Tai, who regarded them as an outcast.
Obviously, the officials are reluctant to make Li Tai a pawn anymore, not because of losing their shares, but because in addition to losing their shares, they may also lose their lives.
Under such circumstances, Li Tai could only target other ministers.
The military general is obviously not good, Li You's matter has only passed less than a month, if Li Shimin knows that he and the military general are so close, maybe there will be something big.
Although Li Tai likes to play tricks, it doesn't mean that he likes to die, so he can only target civilian officials.
Nowadays, there are not many civil officials who have a relatively large influence in the court, they are nothing more than the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and a few other people such as Liubu Shangshu, as for the others, they are all soft-spoken, so Li Tai decisively gave up on them.
Li Tai didn't go to the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling, because he knew that it was useless to look for them, everyone was an old fox who had gone through two dynasties, and it was impossible for him to use it as a gunman, so he could only go to find a few Shangshu.
However, the six Shangshu are also smart people, otherwise it would be impossible for people to mix in the position of the third grade, and when they saw Li Tai, they understood what Li Tai was thinking.
Everyone was very cautious in the face of the problem of standing in line, after all, it involved the battle of the prince, and if one didn't get it right, it would kill someone, so everyone politely declined Li Tai, and only one person agreed, and that person was Zheng Yunyin.
Zheng Yunyin is the secretary of the Criminal Department, and he is also a descendant of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and he is still quite arrogant.
Zheng Yunyin was actually very dissatisfied with Gao Ming marrying Zhou Zheng's daughter and releasing Zhou Zheng back to Jinzhou, so when Li Tai promised him a bunch of benefits, he agreed to Li Tai's request and prepared to join forces to dig a pit and bury Gao Ming.
But what Zheng Yunyin didn't expect was that he had just dug the pit, and before Gao Ming could fall in, he had already been kicked into the pit by Gao Ming.
Of course, it is normal to lose and win in political battles, so this is not where Zheng Yunyin is most angry, what he is most angry about is that Li Tai obviously saw him fall into the pit, and he didn't plan to save him, but treated him as an outcast.
It's just too much of a deception!
Zheng Yunyin had to be unbearable, but he couldn't afford Gao Ming and Li Tai, so he could only fill the pit himself after climbing out of the pit.
"Isn't it okay if I don't play with you?"
Obviously, this is not possible, many times the game is destined to not be allowed to quit at the beginning, and if you don't have the strength to break the rules, then you can only play honestly according to the rules of the game.
Zheng Yunyin thought that he was a person who could break the rules, but in fact he overestimated himself, so Gao Ming and Li Tai were not happy.
Gao Ming sent Su Gan Chengji to investigate, the purpose was to dig up the pit filled by Zheng Yunyin again, and then bury Zheng Yunyin in it, and Li Tai also sent people out to spread rumors, the purpose was also to dig the pit filled by Zheng Yunyin, and the purpose was to bury both Gao Ming and Zheng Yunyin in it.
Facts have proved that Gao Mingqi is high, and he not only succeeded in burying Zheng Yunyin in the pit, but also spared Li Tai's face and made him disgraced.
Although Gao Ming didn't know that the "dead fat man" was Li Tai until now, through the tricks of the two, Li Shimin, the eldest grandson Wuji, and Fang Xuanling had already seen the clues of the whole thing.
Others can stand by and watch the jokes, but the eldest grandson Wuji cannot, because by blood, he is the uncle of Gao Ming and Li Tai, even if it is not for Li Tai, but for the sake of the dead eldest grandson queen, the eldest grandson Wuji can't watch Li Tai fall deeper and deeper.
So when the battle between Gao Ming and Li Tai was decided, the eldest grandson Wuji immediately found Li Tai and then clarified the matter with him.
"His Royal Highness King Wei, I already know about you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, not only do I know, but I am afraid Your Majesty also knows."
As soon as Li Tai heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he immediately became anxious.
"Uncle, what should I do then?"
Hearing Li Tai's "uncle", the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly sighed helplessly.
"Alas...... Qingque, you and Gao Ming grew up under the watchful eye of the old man, and the old man can't bear to watch your brother go over the wall, this is your fault, as long as you enter the palace to admit your mistake to Your Majesty, and then submit to Gao Ming, this matter will be over. ”
When Li Tai heard that the eldest grandson Wuji asked him to admit his mistake and give in, he immediately gritted his teeth a little unwillingly.
"What if I don't go?"
Eldest Sun Wuji had long expected Li Tai's reaction, so he shook his head helplessly again.
"If you don't go, there is no evidence, Your Majesty will not deal with you because of this matter, but because of this matter, you will leave a bad impression on Your Majesty, do you think it is worth it?"
As a prince, in fact, the most important thing is not talent, but his father's favor and trust, which Li Tai knows better than anyone else, so when he heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Tai was immediately moved.
His expression changed several times in a row, and he finally made up his mind.
"Okay, I'll go!"
