Chapter 736: Rumors
The urgent news from the north is still running on the way, and the two princes in Chang'an City are fighting openly and secretly, and the court is in turmoil.
It's definitely been an eventful year. Li Shimin was anxious about the two sons competing for favor, and another thing that bothered him appeared again.
The matter is related to his baby daughter, Princess Linchuan. Oh yes, there is another bastard who can't get out of the relationship, the bastard is Chen Fei, a hairy boy who makes Li Shimin love and hate, and can't stop.
"When did this happen?" Li Shimin closed his eyes, kneading his forehead with one hand, and nodding heavily on the table with the other hand, his tone was quite helpless.
Cai He knelt in front of the case, lowered his head, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, after this matter came out, the minister immediately organized a thorough investigation of the bad people in the secret, it can be speculated that the earliest time to appear was in the early morning of yesterday, in Chengxifang City, but because the rumors had spread within a certain range at that time, it would take a little time to track down the people who walked the rumors." ”
"Humph! What a daring! Just because I didn't take a stand, does that mean I'm free to comment? What do you think of royal majesty? Hum! Cai He, mobilize all the forces at my disposal to investigate this matter thoroughly, especially pay attention to the movements of some families! I suspect that someone is deliberately making a fuss about this! ”
Cai He arched his hand: "The minister obeys the order!" ”
"Go ahead." Li Shimin waved his hand tiredly.
Cai He stood up respectfully, and when he was about to exit the main hall........ "Your Majesty, Lord Cai He's subordinates have sent a secret letter, saying that it is an urgent matter of 100,000 yuan, and ask the old slave to hand it over to Your Majesty." ”
Cai He only took a step back when he met Wanfu who hurried over.
"My men's secrets?" Cai Hehu was suspicious, but after getting Li Shimin's consent, he opened the secret security and looked at the contents.
Suddenly, Cai He's pupils shrank, and his face became frightened. "This ...... This ......."
"Plop" Cai He knelt on the ground, held the secret guard in his hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, this matter... This matter is very important, and I ask Your Majesty to review it personally! ”
"What's the fuss, present it!"
Cai He handed over the secret guarantee, and Li Shimin looked at it twice........
"Smack! Is this true or false? Cai He! Go search Chen Fei's house for me! Also, control all the Chen family, and no one is allowed to enter or exit! By the way, also, go to the Strange Workshop with my holy decree and bring Chen Fei back to me! ”
After Li Shimin saw the secret protection, his chest rose and fell violently, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Cai He said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the authenticity of this secret guarantee has yet to be verified, so do this....... Wouldn't it be inappropriate? Wechen and Lord Chen have known each other for a long time, and have heard of many deeds of Lord Chen, and the minister doesn't think he is a person who can do this kind of thing, not to mention that His Majesty almost agreed to his marriage with Princess Linchuan, he doesn't need to take this risk, judging from Wechen's experience, it is very likely that someone framed him with the intention of splitting the monarch and ministers. ”
After listening to Cai He's words, Li Shimin also calmed down a little, thinking about it, Chen Fei really won't be the kind of person who will go to extremes.
He doesn't seem to have much desire for power, he can do whatever you say, and if you don't, he'll be happy and free, and if he wants to rebel....... Li Shimin felt unlikely.
"It's me who looks like I, it's really unlikely that this kid Chen Fei will do such a thing, fortunately you reminded me, otherwise if it is an unjust case, my actions will definitely chill the courtiers. Cai He, although the possibility of his intention to rebel is very small, it is not that there is no such thing, you should arrange for someone to search it. Also, where did you get this secret seal, the source must be clarified for me. I suspect that someone is going to deal with Chen Fei, but... Hehe, the means are a little too inferior! ”
Cai He clenched his fists and ordered: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will investigate this case thoroughly!" Find the real culprit behind the scenes! ”
"Yes." Li Shimin nodded, and said: "Recently, the wind direction in Chang'an has been changeable, you must be cautious, and you must not make mistakes, otherwise there may be extremely serious consequences, and I can't control it." ”
The meaning of Li Shimin's words is very vague, alluding to the family. Cai He's mind was full of thoughts, and he quickly figured out Li Shimin's thoughts, and silently withdrew after receiving the order.
After Cai He left, Li Shimin looked at the two reports on the table, and sighed lightly after a long time. "It seems that things can't be dragged on, but now that the prince is competing for favor, the family is taking the opportunity to move, and some things should be done."
..................
"Ah Fei! Oh no! Many officers and soldiers have searched your house today! Chen Fei came back from the Qi Workshop, and as soon as he walked to the entrance of the village, Wang Tian stopped Chen Fei with a shout and told him such news.
"Officers and soldiers went to my house to search?" Chen Fei dismounted and asked, "What's the situation?" Why did you search my house? Where are the officers and soldiers? Don't know who I am? What about my father? Nothing, right? ”
"Uncle Chen, they are fine, the officers and soldiers just searched for a while and left. However, I estimate that the reason why the officers and soldiers came back to your house to search has something to do with the two things that have been rumored in the market in the past two days. ”
"What's the matter?" During these days, Chen Fei was almost home-Qi Workshop, running at two points and one line, and he hadn't been to the street much, so a lot of news was blocked, and the rumors in the market had hardly been heard, and he didn't know that he was now on the "hot search list".
Wang Tian was helping Chen Fei with some business outside, so the rumors in the market could not escape his ears, and he looked at Chen Fei with a strange expression, "Are you sure you want to know?" ”
"Say, what else can I do? I guess, the first rumor is mostly related to my affair with Princess Linchuan, right? Judging from the fact that the officers and soldiers came to search my house, another rumor is that some people say that I intend to rebel, right? ”
Wang Tian immediately threw himself on the ground for Chen Fei's reverence for the five bodies, and he was almost about to worship. "Holy! It's amazing, you really haven't heard those rumors? You've guessed it. ”
Chen Fei buckled his nose and said disdainfully: "There are rumors in the market, what other flowers can there be?" I've seen all the hype scandals that were more powerful than these back then, and I've long been surprised. Anyway, it doesn't matter, it's okay if the officers and soldiers searched it. ”
Wang Tian stretched out his thumb to Chen Fei: "You cow." ”
"That's, and don't look at who I am." Chen Fei said proudly. "I'll go home first, if there's any new situation, remember to help me pay attention to it."
"Oh," Wang Tian nodded, and walked home together.
On the way, Yin Ping was curious: "Aren't you worried that someone is dealing with you behind your back?" ”
"It's not a question of worrying or not, it's that someone is definitely going to be behind my back."
"Then you're going to let them do a little trick behind their backs?"
Chen Fei said with a smile: "Let them go, the clear ones will clean themselves, I'm not afraid." ”
After getting along with Chen Fei for so long, Yin Ping can be said to be half a roundworm in his stomach, and when he saw Chen Fei showing his signature evil smile, he knew that the black hand behind the scenes would definitely be unlucky.
It's just ....... "I don't understand, if you don't do anything, things will get worse and worse." ”
Chen Fei stopped and winked at Yin Ping. "Who said I had to do something, someone was already doing it for me."
"Who?"
"Didn't you already search my house?"
