Li Ji came out of the ranks, knelt down to Li Zhi, crossed his hands and bowed:

The minister thought that the king's words were quite reasonable, but the lord's considerations were more thorough. The measure of a country must not be abolished. The merit is high, but if you want to establish it as a public today, there will be a dispute, so it is better to postpone it.

However, the position of the third duke, regarded as the head of the courtiers, has been troublesome recently, and it is indeed inappropriate for the eldest grandson Taiwei to be troubled by himself, so the minister thinks that he can set up another duke.

The minister is not talented, he has won the holy will of the lord, but the minister has no merit, the second is not the royal family, and the third is the end of virtue, and it is indeed not appropriate to rank among the three dukes.

As for His Royal Highness King Pu, as the eldest grandson Taiwei said, there was a precedent, and there was a last wish of the first emperor, and it is not appropriate to be established as the third duke.

In addition, among the foreign ministers today, there is already the eldest grandson Taiwei in the ranks, so he thinks twice, and then among the kings, choose a sage to be ranked...... Lord, the ministers dare to play, with His Royal Highness King Jing as Situ, and please ask the Lord for permission! ”

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were in an uproar, and even Li Zhi and the eldest grandson Wuji were stunned.

Li Zhi looked at the eldest grandson Wuji, but after all, he still didn't agree immediately, just a few empty words, and then discussed it later. Wang Defu asked if he could play.

All the ministers knew that Li Jiping was calm and calm, and the ministers of King Jing's heart were even clearer in their hearts, and they must have some reason for secretly thinking, so they were all silent.

Seeing this, Wang De took the opportunity to announce his retirement from the dynasty, and according to Li Zhi's intentions, he left the eldest grandson Wuji to discuss politics with Li Ji.

……

A moment later.

In the study room of the Taiji Palace.

Li Zhi, who was dressed in a light dragon robe, sat behind the jade case and listened to Li Ji's eloquent words:

"Lord, the heart of King Jing is well known. And the first emperor cut his military power when he was there, which is really not to be feared. However, there is also a Han Wang Yuanjia behind him.

This thief is delicate, and he is quite sympathetic to the courtiers. His wolf ambition should not be underestimated, but he has always been good at disguise and has never shown anything, so we can't take it lightly.

That's why the ministers asked to play, and they were allowed to establish King Jing.

Lord, the events of the past few days are unknown to others in the court, but the Lord and the eldest grandson Taiwei should know that this is just King Han's intention to push King Jing out and be a substitute for the dead - if you can falsely accuse the lord of clearing his name and take the opportunity to pull the lord up and down, then it is the best.

If it doesn't work, then it will attract the lord and the eldest grandson to set their eyes on King Jing, and it is also excellent to relieve their pressure a little - moreover, in this way, King Jing's heart will inevitably be more obvious, and the civil and military will inevitably isolate him even more in order to avoid his suspicion.

Then King Jing had to firmly cling to King Han.

This time, it was King Han's plan to kill two birds with one stone.

It was the ministers who invited King Jing to set up, which broke King Han's plan to control King Jing and divide the two; Second, it can also lead to the exposure of those who are rebellious.

Third, and most important, can temporarily confuse King Jing and make him think that he has a plan-

In this way, he will inevitably expose himself. And as soon as he showed his feet, those who were hidden in the shadows were not far from appearing under the sun. ”

Li Zhi pondered for a moment, looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and said:

"What does Uncle think?"

The eldest grandson Wuji thought about it, and Li Jizhi's words were not unreasonable. Moreover, if King Jing is the end of the Three Princes, then King Jing will have to leave his fiefdom and live in Chang'an-

In this way, it is indeed as Li Ji said, but in the connection with other adversaries, he can follow the vine and touch the melons, and catch them all - especially King Wu, who is now also in Beijing. Compared with Li Yuanjing or even Li Yuanjialai, Li Ke, the king of Wu, is the person who poses the greatest threat to Li Zhi's throne at the moment.

Li Ke has military power in his hands and prestige and merit. If he has a heart to rebel, then Li Zhi will inevitably suffer. Moreover, as soon as King Jing ascended, Li Tai was also unable to ascend the throne.

After thinking about it again and again, he said:

The minister thought that what the British public said was very true, so King Jing had to leave the seal and enter Beijing. This also makes it convenient for us to watch him not be a bad thing. Very good. ”

Li Zhi looked at Li Ji, then nodded and said:

"Since my uncle also said so, then let's make a decree!"

The eldest grandson Wuji and Li Ji bowed to him. After that, Li Zhi gave a few words of encouragement, and then the two of them retreated.

……

Seeing the two of them withdraw for a long time, Li Zhi's face, which had been smiling, suddenly sank, clenched his fists, and waved his wide sleeves-

"Boom Boom ......"

A cracking sound immediately rang out in the hall—but everything above the desk was pushed to the ground in his rage!

Li Zhi's face was flushed, his chest rose and fell violently, he gritted his teeth and looked at the side and was frightened when he saw him angry, and immediately knelt down to plead Wang De and De'an:

"Go! Summoned Li Ji!! Remember to be quiet, don't let those uncles' eyeliner see it!!! ”

"Yes!"

De'an was clever and responded immediately, and ran out of the temple in a panic.

Not long after, Li Ji was led by De'an and entered the Taiji Hall through the side door.

As soon as he entered the hall, he didn't wait for Li Zhi to speak, let alone look around, and immediately knelt down and begged:

"Minister Li Ji is bold and reckless, please punish the Lord!"

Li Zhi originally wanted to drink his sin, but seeing that he himself knew that today's things were not right, he also put out a little fire in his heart. However, when he thought of today's events, he was finally annoyed and sneered:

"Why did General Li say this? You are the first loyal minister of my Tang Dynasty, why do you have the audacity to do it? ”

Li Ji heard Li Zhi's words, and knew that he was very angry this time, so he didn't dare to raise his head, and said in a cold sweat:

"Minister...... The minister knows the Lord's will, but he violates it, it is a great disrespect, and he asks the Lord to punish the crime! ”

When Li Zhi heard this, he thought about it, and he didn't understand why he was like this, so he said:

"Get up and speak."

When Li Ji heard this, he knew that Li Zhi was somewhat relaxed, so he got up with a slight sigh of relief in his heart and stood with his head down.

Li Zhi said coldly:

"Tell me, why?"

"Lord, the minister dared to ask, today Zhang Cong went to the court against the holy will of the lord and vigorously served Yu Suiliang as Situ, in the opinion of the lord, whose intention is it?"

Li Zhi sneered:

"Why do you knowingly ask? The only one who could convince him was his uncle. ”

Li Jianai nodded, and said softly:

"Then, according to the Lord's opinion, how did Lord Taiwei know that the Lord had secretly intended Zhang Cong and Fengpu King Pu as Situ?"

Li Zhi was stunned, thought about it for a while, and said with a smile:

"Uncle has been camping for many years, which of the big and small things in the Taiji Palace can be hidden from him? But ......" Li Zhi suppressed some anger and thought deeply before saying:

"But this time it's also strange, I didn't tell Zhang Cong about this matter, Zhang Cong's heart is a person who only knows how to obey orders, but doesn't have much to do...... Could it be that there is no one else? ”

Li Ji nodded, looked up at Li Zhidao:

"According to the minister's investigation, it is King Jing who leaked this matter to Lord Taiwei."
