Since Li Jingye spoke so confidently, it was naturally because of his 100,000 soldiers and horses outside Yangzhou City, and Li Hong's reluctance to let the war start in Jiangnan, so he dared to ask for a price unscrupulously.

"Your Highness, now I have 100,000 soldiers and horses, even when I founded the Tang Dynasty, these 100,000 soldiers and horses are enough to be crowned the king and worship the prime minister under the command of Gaozu, so if Your Highness is sincere, please immediately play the court, please Your Majesty will give me the title of king, and then I, Li Jingye, promise to immediately retire the soldiers of Jinling, Runzhou, and Changzhou." Li Jingye saw Li Hong looking at him and smiling silently, as if he was thinking about his own conditions, so he said his request again.

"Worship the king? At that time, the British Duke Li Tao was only given the title of Duke of the Kingdom by the first emperor Taizong, and since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there has never been a king with a different surname, Xu Jingye, your ambition is too big, right? But it's also ....... Li Hong's tone and expression were relaxed and natural, he looked at Li Jingye and King Yue, and said easily: "Now at least I know your ambitions, at least I know that you don't take the court in your eyes at all, even if you are crowned the king and pay homage to the prime minister, in the end, whether it is the court or the father, you will lose face." ”

"So, Your Highness doesn't agree? Seeing that the people of the four cities in the south of the Yangtze River are in the midst of war, their wives are separated, their families are ruined, and they don't care about it? Li Jingye's face sank, and he asked coldly.

Li Hong ignored him again, but continued to stare at King Yue and asked, "Who is looking for the stand-in for the sixth child, you go down to the south of the Yangtze River, do you know about the sixth child?" What exactly is your purpose? How much did the sixth get involved? If it is truthfully recruited, maybe I will see if I want to send you back to Chang'an to meet my father depending on the plot. ”

"Li Hong, don't deceive people too much, even if Your Majesty comes to Jiangnan in person, he will not speak so condescendingly to my father and king, we are not subjects, we are royal clan ......." Li Chong, the king of Langya, slapped the table and stood up, and said angrily.

"So what?" Li Hong looked at Li Chong, who stood up angrily, and said in a good time: "Help the sixth child compete for the position of the crown prince, and go south to Jiangnan to prevent me from returning to Chang'an, I'm afraid that your purpose is to let me stay here for a long time, or disappear from this world, right?" ”

"You...... This is just your own speculation, we come to Jiangnan, can't we play? King Langya looked at Li Chong, who was smiling, and also felt that this excuse was too lame, where did he station a Zhichong Mansion soldier in the mansion?

So he glanced at Li Jingye, softened his tone and said: "It's really wrong for me to transfer troops with my father privately, but this is also because we didn't expect Yangzhou City to be so chaotic, in order to protect myself, I had to make this decision, my father was still saying just now, let me inform you." ”

Li Zhen patted Li Chong's arm, motioned for him to sit down, and said quietly: "Yes, it is indeed for Li Xian to compete for the position of the crown prince, and I did find a substitute for Li Xian, and ask His Royal Highness to punish the crime." ”

Li Chong was taken aback, and looked at Li Zhen, the king of Yue, a little incredulously, how could he tell the truth to the prince?

"What is the purpose of finding a stand-in for Li Xian? Attract my attention, or wait for me and Li Jingye to lose both, and you will come out to clean up the mess and accumulate prestige for the sixth child? Li Hong continued to ask lightly.

Li Jingye was reluctant to interject at this time, he also wanted to know what role he played in their plan after Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and others went down to Jiangnan, and wanted to know if he was very valued and not despised by them.

Li Zhen, the king of Yue, lowered his eyes, ignored Li Chong's obstruction, and continued to say calmly: "Yes, Li Hong, you didn't guess wrong, looking for a stand-in for Li Xian is because if Li Xian leaves Chang'an without permission, it will inevitably attract the attention of His Majesty and the Empress, in this way, our plan to stop you in Jiangnan will not be successful, but in order to prevent your plan in Jiangnan to succeed, and also to accumulate chips for Li Xian to make His Majesty and the Empress the crown prince in the future, as well as his reputation among the people, We came up with a plan to find a stand-in to replace Li Xian in Jiangnan. ”

When he said this, Li Zhen controlled his eyes not to look at Li Chong, because this strategy was proposed by him.

But what made him feel frightened was that when he said the last, Li Hong's eyes slowly moved from him to Li Chong's.

"And then?" Li Hong asked in a playful tone.

"Then it is to lure you to Yangzhou and use you to help Li Jingye when you suppressed Li Jingye's war...... Then he moved to Jiangdong and blamed Li Jingye ....... ”

"Then after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disappears, you will attack me again, so as to achieve the goal of killing two birds with one stone, that is, for Pei Wang Li Xian to compete for the position of the crown prince, and because of the elimination of the rebel minister Li Jingye, for Pei Wang Li Xian in the court, in His Majesty, the queen to establish a prestige, so that he was successfully established as the prince, and His Royal Highness the prince was killed by me Li Jingye, in order to save His Royal Highness the prince, you can only bring the rebel Li Jingye to justice, or I am afraid of sin, and commit suicide in fear of sin, so that all the truth will be unproven!" Li Jingye stood up with a gloomy face, looked at Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and Li Chong, the king of Langya with complicated expressions, and asked.

"Yes, that's it, I think you already know this from King Cao, and ask me, just to prove if there are other conflicts between us, right? If you have any questions, I will tell you what I know. Li Zhen sighed, and the hero said lonely.

"No, I just want to confirm how far my guess is from the truth, it seems that it is not much different from what I guessed, bring it up." Li Hong turned his head and shouted at the mouth.

Immediately, two simple black coffins were carried outside the hall by several soldiers and placed silently in the sun.

"...... this?" King Yue looked at the coffin, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, I don't know if this is prepared for himself, or does it mean that these two coffins already have owners?

"One is Uncle Cao Wang, and the other is Wei Siwen, if you don't believe it, you can go and have a look." Li Hong sat in the hall and did not move.

It's just that as soon as the words fell, whether it was Li Zhen, the king of Yue, Li Chong, the king of Langya, or Li Jingye, he rushed out with an arrow and ran towards the two coffins.

At the open window in the hall, with the sound of flapping wings from far and near, a huge bird, with wings larger than the window, slowly flew over, and when it was about to approach the window, the wings on both sides began to retract.

In the end, Hai Dongqing stood on the windowsill with a pair of cold and ruthless eyes, twisting his neck, looking for Li Hong.

Untied the thin tube on Hai Dongqing's steel-like legs, took out the note inside and glanced at it, the smile on Li Hong's face became more and more prosperous, and his expression became more relaxed.

Hai Dongqing looked at the smile on Li Hong's face, and after seeing Li Hong pat his left shoulder again, he lightly jumped on Li Hong's shoulder with a burst of wings, and looked at a few people outside the hall excitedly.

Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and the king of Langya walked quickly to a coffin, stretched out their hands and pushed hard, and found that the coffin was not nailed, so with a little more force, they pushed the coffin board to the side, looked down, and saw that it was Wei Siwen lying inside, and when their eyes swept over their necks, the two suddenly felt that their feet were soft, and they almost fell to the ground at the same time.

After all, King Langya was younger, he looked at Wei Siwen, who looked very peaceful, and turned his head just to see Li Jingye looking here, so the three of them changed places silently.

"Li Ming!" Li Zhen, the king of Yue, looked at Li Ming, who was lying peacefully in the coffin with his eyes closed, and a sad sadness suddenly rose in his heart.

Looking at Cao Wang Li Ming lying in the coffin, the simple sutured wound on his neck knew that he was beheaded by Li Hong, and then stitched it up again and put it into the coffin.

Li Zhen and Li Chong were separated on both sides, and they didn't have time to think about these details, so they reached into the coffin, wanting to take Li Ming out of the coffin and give him a better coffin that matched his identity.

With the corpse of Cao Wang Li Ming slowly being lifted out of the coffin, just when Li Chong was about to lift it out with one hand on his head and the other on his shoulder, Li Hong's faint voice sounded behind him: "Li Jingye, give it to you, look at this cruel words to avenge Wei Siwen." ”

A note was thrown by Li Hong to Li Jingye, who was looking at Wei Siwen's coffin, and when Li Chong heard Li Hong's words, he was suddenly distracted, and the hand that was originally holding Cao Wang's head unconsciously loosened, and suddenly Cao Wang's head, which was originally only stitched with a layer of skin, seemed to be broken all at once, completely drooping, and even shaking there.

"In Yangzhou City, which got up early, there were very few people who opened the shop (coffin shop), so I could only wronged Uncle Cao Wang first, when I arrived, Wei Chao had already beheaded him, and you also know that Wei Chao's father was in Cao Wang's Mansion for Uncle Cao Wang's guilt, and after being exiled to Puzhou, King Cao did not take care of others, so ...... That's it. Li Hong slowly walked out of the hall, looked at the two and said.

Li Zhen and Li Chong turned around at the same time, only to see a huge bird standing on Li Hong's shoulder, a pair of cold eyes were staring at this time, the suture of King Cao's severed head and neck, the white, almost rotten flesh.

"Put it back, I have already sent Bai Chun to buy the good coffin, and if you two carry his body like this, I dare not guarantee that this flat-haired beast on my shoulder will not be tempted by the flesh and skin on Uncle Cao's neck." Li Hong took two steps forward again and stood still, lowered his head and said.

As if cooperating with Li Hong's words, Hai Dongqing's ruthless gaze never left the white neck, and as soon as Li Hong's voice was finished, he seemed to be a little impatient to step on Li Hong's shoulder, looking eager to try carrion.

Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and the king of Langya glanced at each other, and then looked at the drooping head of King Cao, so they had to obey Li Hong's words and put King Cao's body back in the coffin again.
