There is no doubt that Du Ruhui is a bright pearl, even if it is dyed with too much dust, it still can't hide its dazzling light. It's a pity that the people with discerning eyes are a minority after all, although he defected to the Qin Palace, but before he could show his ability, he was buried in the Moon Tower because of a moment of negligence.

Dying in Qinglou is not an elegant thing after all, so under the instruction of the Du family and the imperial court, Du Ruhui's death did not stir up the storm in the city.

When Du Ruhui died, Li Xuanba had left Chang'an for many days, and during the time Li Xuanba stayed in Chang'an, he had never left the Weiwang Mansion, and no one should suspect him.

But apart from Li Xuanba, who would do such a thing?

Jingzhao Mansion Yin sent someone to secretly investigate for half a month, and finally only found two corpses, and then he entered the palace to plead guilty, and was reprimanded by Li Yuan in public for a stick of incense, and the matter of Wangyue Tower was over.

In the entire Chang'an City, there are many people who vaguely guessed the truth of the Mochizuki Tower case, but no one will be more certain than the Li family's father and son. What Li Yuan wasn't sure was what role Li Shimin played in the whole thing.

"Xiaogong has a close relationship with the people, and in the case of Guanxian, it is reasonable for Xuanba to blame his resentment on the Qin Wangfu." After retiring from the early dynasty, Li Yuan returned to the harem and chatted with Wan Guifei: "Fortunately, he still understands the general situation and has not hurt the Tang Dynasty at all." ”

Whether it was Du Ruhui or several other people from the Qin Palace's mansion who died because of him, they were all insignificant in Li Yuan's eyes, as long as Li Xuanba could vent the anger in his heart, Li Yuan thought it was worth it.

But Li Yuan would never have imagined that Li Xuanba's real purpose was originally to kill Du Ruhui!

"Your Majesty, why did Xiao Gong do that, have you ever thought about it?" Wan Guifei lowered her eyelids and said listlessly: "If it is really the order of the people, what are you going to do?" ”

"Without evidence, how can the sins of the people of the world be punished arbitrarily?" Li Yuan was silent for a moment and replied slowly.

Wan Guifei smiled slightly, shook her head, and said in her heart, even if there is evidence, you will really punish the people? After a pause, she spoke: "Your Majesty, what Xuanba did in Chang'an City, you know it well, except for the concubine, he didn't even see the completion, you said that the matter of Wangyue Tower is related to him, have you ever thought about whether there is evidence?" ”

"Even now, are you still looking towards Xuanba like this?" Li Yuan's eyes were deep, and he couldn't see joy or anger: "Do you really think that Jingzhao Mansion Yin can't find out the person behind the Moon Tower?" He just didn't dare to look it up. ”

"The matter involves government affairs, and the concubines dare not speak falsely." Concubine Wan Guifei bowed and chuckled: "But the concubine believes that if the person behind Wangyue Tower is really Xuanba, since he has been planning for so long, he will definitely not leave a handle." ”

When Li Yuan heard this, his brows furrowed.

Mochizuki Tower is just a place of fireworks, when Li Yuan invaded Chang'an, the imperial court did not pay much attention to it, until the recent tragedy, Mochizuki Tower attracted the attention of the imperial court.

"When the Moon Tower appeared, I was defending against the Turks in the north, and Xuanba was still serving under Zhang Xutuo." Li Yuan was very frightened when he thought about it: "I don't believe it, he started planning today's things a few years ago!" ”

"Since Your Majesty thinks this matter is incredible, why do you suspect that the matter of Mochizuki Tower is related to Xuanba?" Wan Guifei's tone was calm and smiling: "According to the concubine's guess, Xuanba wants to tell His Majesty through this incident that not all cases will leave evidence. ”

Li Shimin was leading the army to fight with Xue Ju, and he was weak, and Du Ruhui's trip to Li Xiaogong's camp was extremely secretive, and the court did not know about it, so Li Xiaogong's attack on Guanxian seemed to have nothing to do with Li Shimin.

"Shimin has great ambitions and has always opposed the coexistence of Datang and Nansui, but he and Xuanba have a deep brotherhood, how could he do such a thing?" Li Yuan shook his head noncommittally and said, "Concubine Wan, there is no need to mention this matter again, I believe in the people. After speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "But you met Xuanba last time, I don't know what you talked about?" ”

Du Ruhui and Li Xiaogong both died, and the happiest was Li Jiancheng. As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, his prestige in the court has never been as good as that of King Qin, which makes him very uneasy.

"As soon as Li Xiaogong died, the power of King Qin in the army was weakened by nearly half, His Royal Highness the Prince, you should take this opportunity to ask to lead the troops to the battle." In the prince's mansion, Li Jiancheng drank and talked with a group of staff, and he was in a very comfortable mood, and after everyone sarcastically said to Li Shimin, Wei Ting spoke.

"Zhu Cang died, King Wei returned to Jiangdu, Louluo more than a dozen counties will return to the Tang Dynasty sooner or later, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should first enter the palace to ask for an order, go to pacify the thieves, in order to expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty." Someone arched his hand.

"Lord Wang, it is a matter of course for Your Highness to pacify Lou Luo." Wei Ting smiled at Wang Jue and said: "Xiaguan persuaded the prince to lead the troops, originally hoping that he could succeed Li Xiaogong and continue to attack the Liang State. ”

"This palace has this intention, but I am a little worried that the people of the world will interfere with it." Li Jiancheng smiled, looked at everyone and said: "The people of the world are acting in a shadowy way, and this palace has suffered a lot of losses in his hands, so I really have to guard against it!" ”

What happened to Hedong is still vivid, it was that conspiracy that made all the connections that Li Jiancheng had made hard for several years come to naught, for the future of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng chose to forbear, but he became very careful.

"Your Highness, please rest assured, although Your Majesty has no conclusive evidence in the matter of Guanxian, he will inevitably suspect King Qin in his heart." Wei Ting replied: "If King Qin is interested in this time, he will honestly lead his troops to exterminate Xue Ju, otherwise, I am afraid that even His Majesty will not continue to indulge him!" ”

"What Master Wei said is extremely true." A middle-aged man arched his hand and said: "King Qin is full of strategy, Your Majesty needs King Qin to go out for the Tang Dynasty, so he is unwilling to delve into the matter of Guanxian, King Wei made a fuss in Chang'an City, and he will not find trouble with King Qin in a short time, King Qin has not been able to arouse the hatred of the Tang Dynasty and Southern Sui, even if he is unwilling, he can only swallow bitter water." ”

"Losing his right-hand man within a month, his heart is naturally extremely bitter." Li Jiancheng shook his head and smiled: "Since all the adults think that this palace should enter the palace, then without further ado, tomorrow morning the palace will ask for an order to suppress the thief." Li Yuan didn't realize the importance of Du Ruhui, but Li Jiancheng had always been wary of Li Shimin, so he would naturally pay attention to anyone related to him.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Jiang Du sent an invitation." While everyone was laughing and talking, someone outside the door bowed down and shouted.

"Invitations?" Li Jiancheng, Wei Ting and the others looked at each other, a little confused for a while, and hurriedly asked the man to present the invitation.

At the same time that Li Jiancheng received the invitation, Li Shimin, who was far away in Gaoqian City, received an invitation almost at the same time, but the angry look on his face meant that he did not feel the joy of being invited.

"Take my war horse, kill my good generals, and invite me to his wedding!" Li Shimin's hand trembled very much, he roared, and tore the invitation to pieces: "Have you ever seen the person who sent the invitation?" ”

"If you go back to Your Highness, the invitation is tied to an arrow and shot, I don't know who sent the invitation." Liu Wen bowed quietly and replied cautiously. (To be continued.) )
