The people of Chang'an are praising Li Shimin.

When Li Jiancheng went down to court, he could still hear some praise.

This made him angry enough, because these good words should have belonged to him, but now they are all Li Shimin's.

And this made him want to make Concubine Yin De the queen more and more.

He wants to make Li Shimin regret it, and when Li Shimin comes out of the royal Taoist temple, he finds that Concubine Yin De has become the queen, and he is afraid that he will be angry to death, right?

With this idea, after returning to the East Palace, Li Jiancheng immediately called Song Gongqing.

"How's it going?"

Song Gongqing said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, everything has been done......

Song Gongqing told Li Jiancheng about the situation, and Li Jiancheng nodded with satisfaction after listening to it, and then sent someone to call Cui Tong.

When Cui Tong came to the East Palace, his expression was still nervous, and as soon as he saw Li Jiancheng, he immediately said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Concubine Yin Defei's mother is not from my Cui family, we have already investigated it clearly, so I'm afraid it won't work to enter the family tree." ”

Yesterday, Li Jiancheng said that Concubine Yin Defei's mother may be from the Cui family, so if he says this today, there is no problem at all, anyway, it's all acting, let's see who can play whom.

Li Jiancheng didn't expect Cui Tong to refuse like this.

His face sank faintly, as if he was about to have a seizure.

But at this time, Cui Tong immediately said again: "My subordinates know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince means, in fact, why do you have to support Concubine Yin De, if you can support Concubine Cui and let Concubine Cui become the queen, our Cui family will definitely support the prince to the end." ”

Cui Tong showed his hole cards, he believed that with Li Jiancheng's ingenuity, he should be able to weigh the pros and cons, and then make a satisfactory choice.

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he smiled in his heart, he Li Jiancheng is not stupid, even if Concubine Cui stands on his side, how far is he willing to do it for himself?

If you talk about sincerity, you still have to look at Concubine Yin De.

Therefore, although Concubine Cui is also very beneficial to him, Li Jiancheng will not cooperate with the Cui family unless it is absolutely necessary.

These families, he still knows that he can't let them become bigger, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with them when he ascends the throne and becomes an enemy.

"Speaking of Concubine Cui, this prince just has something for you, I don't know if you're interested." As he spoke, Li Jiancheng brought a piece of jewelry and handed it to Cui Tong.

The jewelry is very delicate and good-looking, and at a glance you know that the price is expensive, after Cui Tong got it in his hand, he felt a little familiar, and then took a closer look, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.

"Too ...... Where did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come from with this? ”

"Nervous?" The corners of Li Jiancheng's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Cui Tong with some pride.

"I didn't ...... No. ”

Li Jiancheng smiled: "This is what the prince got from an imperial doctor in the palace, and the imperial doctor is twenty-three years old this year, and he is in the prime of life." ”

Li Jiancheng glanced at Cui Tong and saw that Cui Tong's forehead was in cold sweat, so he continued: "I heard that the imperial doctor has to go to Concubine Cui's bedroom every few days, Cui Tong, do you think this imperial doctor is too diligent to go?" ”

Cui Tong's heart was beating faster, his face was pale, he reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly said, "Maybe...... Maybe Concubine Cui often has problems with her body, so she needs to be treated by the imperial doctor. ”

What's going on, Cui Tong has naturally guessed it, but even if he guessed it, he can't say it, let alone admit it.

Li Jiancheng sighed: "It turned out to be like this, no wonder, no wonder." ”

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip of tea, and then said: "I won't mention the matter of Concubine Cui, let's talk about whether Concubine Yin Defei is the matter of your Cui family, what do you say Cui Tong?" ”

Cui Tong looked flustered, but at this time, what choice did he have, and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this Concubine Yin De has a noble status, and her mother is indeed from our Cui family, by the way, it is from the thirteenth room of our Cui family." ”

Now, Cui Tong even told Concubine Yin Defei where her mother came from, and Li Jiancheng nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, you are really a smart person, since Concubine Yin Defei's mother was born in the thirteenth room of your Cui family, then you hurry back and prepare, a few days later, Concubine Yin Defei may go to recognize her relatives."

Cui Tong hurriedly retreated, and when he left the East Palace, his body was a little hot, and he was blown by the autumn wind, and he suddenly felt soft, and after returning to the house, Cui Tong was sick.

was really sick, but even so, he still arranged this matter and asked Cui Xian to hurry up.

If Concubine Cui's matter is revealed by Li Jiancheng, even if they are from a family, Li Yuan may not be able to spare them for the sake of face.

They have no choice now, they only hate Concubine Cui for not being able to endure loneliness in the palace.

In the East Palace, when Song Gongqing walked out, he had a smile on his face.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, now that the Cui family is willing to admit that Concubine Yin's mother is from their Cui family, then our matter is equivalent to more than half of success, as long as Yin Arat's title is a little higher, we can put forward the matter of Concubine Yin De's title in the early court."

Li Jiancheng nodded: "Yes, the biggest difficulty has been solved recently, and Yin Arat's title is not a problem." ”

In Li Jiancheng's opinion, with the help of him, Concubine Yin Defei and others, it shouldn't be difficult to get a knighthood for Yin Arat, right?

At least I can ask for a marquis for Yin Arat.

"This matter, let Concubine Yin De first make a preface to her father, if his father directly agrees, we will not make a move, if his father does not agree, or if he thinks that things are difficult, we will think of other ways."

Song Gongqing nodded, and at this time, Li Jiancheng asked again: "Is there any news from the people who were sent out?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, it's still early, it will take at least three or four days before there may be a reply."

Li Jiancheng's expression sank slightly, this move is related to whether he can get rid of those people around Li Shimin, which is very important to him.

However, Li Jiancheng still nodded, and said patiently: "Okay, as soon as there is news, I will report it immediately." ”

Song Gongqing withdrew, and the news quickly spread to Concubine Yin De.

Although Concubine Yin Defei was thinking about Li Jiancheng in her heart, she still couldn't withstand the temptation in the face of the queen's position, and now Li Jiancheng wants to help her win the queen's position, Concubine Yin Defei is still very happy.

Therefore, Li Jiancheng asked her to find a way to knight her father, and she quickly agreed, of course, before that, she had already wanted to knight her father.

However, the matter of knighting his father is in a hurry, and he must wait for a good opportunity, and he knows very well what this kind of good opportunity is, when Li Yuan comes to her, when she serves Li Yuan in a fluttering spirit.

In that case, such a thing as asking for a knighthood for her father was a trivial matter in Li Yuan's opinion.

Everything is just a matter of his words.
