Chapter 225: Clever Poison Formula
"Jingde, what do you think we should do?" Li Shimin rubbed the bridge of his aching nose, and his head was bigger than two. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But he can't do anything, what good can a rough man like Wei Chigong do?
"Otherwise, ask that stinky boy, I think he might be able to do it." Wei Chigong scratched his oily hair and said.
"This ...... Let's wait. Li Shimin sighed, for going to consult Chen Fang at this time, this kind of embarrassing thing, as a prince, he really couldn't pull his face for a while.
"Well, Jingde, you send someone out to inquire and see what is going on, why so many victims have suddenly appeared in the city, besides, um...... In addition, let a few sneak back to the post station quietly to protect the princess. Li Shimin said.
Wei Chigong received the order, called three or four nimble Feiyunwei to his side, and instructed them to sneak back to the post station quietly to protect the eldest grandson, and then ordered a relatively thin Feiyunwei.
"Flying Bird, your hiding skills are the strongest here, and you blend into the crowd, you must find out what happened." Wei Chigong solemnly instructed, and Fei Yunwei, who was named, nodded silently, watching the thin Flying Bird go out of the door, Li Shimin's face was a little soothed.
He knows the ability of the flying bird, when he fought in the south and the north, the flying bird was a scout under Wei Chi Gong's army, blending into the enemy army, and his ability to inquire about the news was first-class. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he instructed Wei Chigong to transfer him from the army to his side as a cronie. The purpose is to have one more eyes and ears by his side, so that once he fights with his brother in the future, he can grasp the news on the front line, but he never thought that the first time he was put to use was in the small place of Guangliang.
The Flying Bird's ability to find out the news was far superior to that of the other scouts, and after about half an hour, he blew the whistle outside the cell.
Hearing the signal, the other Feiyun guards hurriedly opened the cell door and welcomed in the flying birds, dressed as disaster victims.
"Scout, what the hell is going on out there?" As soon as the flying bird entered the door, Li Shimin couldn't wait to make a sound.
The Flying Bird hurriedly saluted and said, "Back to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I have already inquired about this matter clearly." I heard from the victims that the city gate had been opened by the master named Wang Shiren, and that he instigated the victims to enter the city, and ......"
"What else? Say it. Li Shimin couldn't wait and urged.
Flying Bird: "The king has already shirked the matter of Guangliang City's lack of food relief to Tang County Ling and the Yamen, and a group of disaster victims will flock to the Yamen, saying that they want to ask for an explanation from Tang County Ling. ”
Listening to the words of the flying bird, Li Shimin's face changed abruptly, Tang Yun is now in the prison behind him, he doesn't have to worry about Tang Yun's safety for the time being, what he is worried about is the yamen.
As the stronghold of the imperial court, the yamen represents the face of the imperial court to a large extent, once the yamen is occupied by the victims and destroyed, it will undoubtedly be a slap in the face of the imperial court.
Although he said that his arrival this time was very low-key to conceal his true identity, he also knew that he might not be able to hide from the eyes of people with a heart. Once he can't escape, he is a prince, but he can't settle this turmoil, it will inevitably reach the ears of his father, and then his father, who originally intended to pass on his brother Li Jiancheng, will definitely be even more disappointed in him, and the situation at that time will be of no benefit to him in his quest to seize the throne.
But what should we do now?
Faced with such a predicament, Li Shimin was also worried for a while.
But Wei Chigong, a rough man, didn't realize the deeper layer, and just thought about how to protect Li Shimin's safety.
"Your Highness, the situation is critical at the moment, why don't you stay here for the time being, and wait for me to kill and bring reinforcements to the nearby military camp to rescue." Wei Chigong's black charcoal face was still resolute at this moment.
However, Li Shimin did not agree to his request.
"Respect, no."
"Your Highness, why not? At present, the displaced people are entering the city, and the danger is lurking, and staying in the prison can only be a right and a plan, if there are no reinforcements to protect, I am afraid that they will not be able to get out of this Guangliang City. Wei Chi said hurriedly.
Li Shimin sighed helplessly, raised his head and said, "I'm afraid that if I get out of here like that, I will never want to stand in front of my father in the future." ”
Hearing this, Wei Chigong also realized that something was wrong, but let him think of a way, he couldn't think of a bird at all, he was so anxious that he was like a monkey head with fleas all over his body, desperately scratching the rough hair, but although he didn't think of it, but between scratching his ears and cheeks, a person suddenly appeared in his head.
With nothing to do, he tentatively said to Li Shimin: "Your Highness, if you don't look for that kid surnamed Chen, I see that he has some clever skills, and he should be able to come up with some methods." ”
"This ...... Will he be able to figure out a good idea? Li Shimin was a little uncertain.
For this, Wei Chigong couldn't be sure anymore, so he had to say with a bitter face: "This, three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang, and besides, didn't the Tang county order repeatedly say good things about that kid in making up the folds, and proposed to give the county order's favor to that kid?" This translation is the time to test that kid, if he can come up with a good way, then it is not impossible for him to replace the Tang family's grace. ”
Li Shimin thought about it, but he really couldn't think of a way, so he had to nod his head, agreed to Wei Chigong's proposal, and ordered someone to bring Chen Fang and Tang Yun out.
Chen Fang and Tang Yun, who were sitting comfortably in prison, didn't expect the release to come so quickly, so suddenly, they couldn't help but be surprised, and the doubts in their hearts kept pouring out, but no one could guess the truth. It wasn't until he left the prison warehouse and met with Li Shimin and listened to the incident about the disaster victims entering the city that he knew the seriousness of the matter.
Seeing that Chen Fang was in deep thought when he heard about the commotion of the victims, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and glanced at Wei Chigong, neither of them could guess what Chen Fang was thinking, and couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"This situation is serious, whether it is the people of Guangliang or those ignorant disaster victims, it has reached the importance of life and death, I don't know if Mr. Chen has a good plan?" Li Shimin asked, holding on to the last glimmer of hope.
However, after blurting out these words, Chen Fang still didn't give him any response, but continued to keep his head down in a daze, seeing this, everyone's hearts sank to the bottom all of a sudden.
"Jingde, you're going to lead someone to break through." Li Shimin sighed in despair and asked Wei Chigong to prepare to break through and ask for help in the nearby military camp, but just as Wei Chigong was about to take the order to retreat, Chen Fang suddenly opened his mouth.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the grass people have a plan."
"What, you have a way, what a way, Mr. Chen, please tell me." Hearing that Li Shimin was overjoyed, a pair of desperate eyes rekindled the light of hope, and Wei Chigong and Tang Yun were also very surprised, and they all paid attention to Chen Fang's body.
However, Chen Fang's performance was a little hesitant, and he didn't explain his strategy and plan for a long time.
"Mr. Chen, what's the difficulty if you don't do this?" Li Shimin was born in the house of the Ming Zheng and the Secret Fighting Palace, and it seems that he has seen Chen Fang's unspeakable secrets at a glance.
In fact, Chen Fang is indeed in a dilemma, because although his strategy is a good strategy, it is also a poison prescription, and if he is not careful, he will not stop one or two people who will lose their heads in the future or because of this.
Feeling the hopeful gazes of the people around him, Chen Fang gritted his teeth and still planned to give it to him.
He saluted Li Shimin and said, "Your Highness, if you want to calm down this disaster, Your Highness must go out in person." ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin felt a little surprised, but he seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and couldn't help asking, "What does Mr. Chen mean?" ”
Chen Fang straightened his face and said: "The reason why the victims are in turmoil is nothing more than hunger, if His Royal Highness appears as a prince, and promises to ensure that the victims can have food to wrap their stomachs, I believe that with the prestige of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the victims will be convinced, and then we will find out the culprit Wang Zhuji, who caused this disaster, and clarify the truth that there is no food to send today, I believe the victims will be able to understand." ”
"It's not impossible, but where do we have food to feed the victims right now?" Li Shimin rubbed the bridge of his aching nose and frowned.
However, Chen Fang smiled, "Your Highness, it has been a long time since the victims entered the city, do you think they will still have an empty stomach now?" In this way, we have already saved a ration, taking advantage of the gap in this ration. His Royal Highness can contact the major grain merchants in the city, these people have hoarded a large amount of grain in their hands, and His Highness can exchange the means of gifts for a certain amount of disaster relief food to relieve the urgent need. At the same time, he reported to the imperial court, begging for food relief from the disaster, believing that with the benevolence and righteousness of the saints, he would quickly allocate food to save the disease, and then the commotion would naturally cure the disease, and His Royal Highness could also take this opportunity to establish prestige in the eyes of the world. ”
Listening to Chen Fang's thoughtful plan, Li Shimin's frowning brows not only stretched, but the corners of his mouth even hung a smile, "Mr. Chen is really wise, and it is not in vain that Tang County's order has repeatedly recommended Mr. in the fold." ”
Fold? Elected?
Chen Fang couldn't help but glance back at Tang Yun, and Tang Yun, who was poked by Li Shimin, suddenly shrank his neck, and he didn't dare to look directly at Chen Fang's gaze.
Looking at Tang Yun's strange reaction, Chen Anxin's doubts were even worse, but the matter of the victims was still important at the moment, so he had to temporarily suppress his in-depth research and focus on the victims.
Everyone has their own heart, Li Shimin's mind is all in Chen Fang's last sentence, and being able to erect a tall image in the eyes of the people of the world is beneficial and harmless to him. Wei Chigong is different, his heart is all on Li Shimin's body, seeing that Li Shimin intends to promise Chen Fang to come forward to solve the commotion of the victims, he can't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, no, this plan is very inappropriate." ”
Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned, "Jingde, is it inappropriate?" ”
"Your Highness." Wei Chigong solemnly arched his hand at Li Shimin and said: "Your Highness, this plan sounds feasible at first glance, but the implementation of the plan is extremely dangerous. ”
Although Wei Chigong said that he did not have the ability to think about it, he still had a certain level when it came to marching and fighting, and as soon as he heard it, he heard the loopholes in the "battle plan." Yes, no one can guarantee that as soon as Li Shimin comes forward, the victims will give him face.
Once Li Shimin came forward and could not suppress the victims, but was injured by the victims, or even lost his life, the emperor would definitely be furious, and all the people involved in this plan, and even all the victims, would probably fall to the ground.
However, even if he had some scruples, but Chen Fang did not show it, whether this plan was implemented or not, in fact, it was not in his words, nor in Wei Chigong's intervention, everything was decided by Li Shimin himself, and Chen Fang was very sure, Li Shimin would definitely agree to this plan in order to erect a lofty image in the eyes of the world, so he didn't need to express his position at all.
Sure enough, as Chen Fang expected, Li Shimin listened to Wei Chigong's words, and immediately felt displeased, and he said solemnly: "Jingde, this matter is related to the lives of tens of millions of people, how can I put them in dire straits because of the safety of one of them?" ”
"But Your Highness ......"
Wei Chigong wanted to say something, but before he could finish speaking, he was rejected by Li Shimin's displeased wave of his hand: "Jingde, there is no need to say it again, this king has already made up his mind and sworn to live and die with the people of Guangliang." ”
Hearing this, seeing that Wei Chigong still had the intention of opening his mouth, Chen Fang hurriedly bowed deeply at Li Shimin, and made a big salute: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin is benevolent and righteous, and he has the people of the world in his heart, and the grass people are deeply admired. ”
Tang Yun is also a smart woman, seeing Chen Fang's move, she also hurriedly made a big official salute to Li Shimin, and said loudly: "Your Highness is kind-hearted, which is really a blessing for the people, and the officials admire it very much." ”
Being interrupted by Chen Fang and Tang Yun like this, Wei Chigong was speechless for a moment, so he had to glare at Chen Fang and Tang Yun with great dissatisfaction, and stopped speaking.
On the other hand, after being praised by Chen Fang and Tang Yun, Li Shimin had some fluttering posture, waved his sleeves very confidently, and said, "Everyone, let's go!" ”
The word "departure" was said particularly loudly, but just when everyone was about to set off with Li Shimin, Chen Fang suddenly spoke again.
"Your Highness, the grass people have something to ask for." He bowed down and bowed with great sincerity.
Li Shimin, who was excited, didn't think about it carefully, and waved his hand: "Sir, it's okay to say it." ”
