Late at night, King Lu's Mansion.

This is the second time Guo Ye has been invited to King Lu's mansion, but this time the location is not in the garden stone pavilion last time, but in the study of Li Yuanqing, King of Lu.

Although the study room is small, it is better than concealment and confidentiality.

In addition to Guo Ye, Li Yuanqing, the king of Lu, Li Yuanfang, the king of Daoxiao, Li Chengqian, the prince of Luguo, Junji, and others all arrived, and the small study room was packed.

King Lu did not summon Li Yuanxiang, the king of Jing, who had always been hot-tempered and brave and unscrupulous, he knew too well the temper and temperament of his younger brother, and this kind of occasion was not suitable for him at all. Of course, this is also what Emperor Li Yuan specially ordered to explain.

When a group of people gathered in the study, Lu Wangping retired all the subordinates outside the study, and only arranged a few henchmen and palace guards to guard outside the study as a guard.

In the study, Li Chengqian, who is the crown prince, sits in the center, King Lu and King Daoxiao sit on the left and right top seats, while Hou Junji and Guo Ye sit only below the two princes on the left and right.

Now that everyone has arrived, Li Chengqian, who is the crown prince, is naturally about to open his voice.

Just when he was about to open his mouth with excitement, suddenly Li Yuanfang, the king of Daoxiao, stood up and said, "Wait, Your Royal Highness the Prince, before discussing major matters, this king has a few words to ask Guo Jungong. ”

Li Chengqian was slightly stunned, and felt a little disgusted in his heart for Li Yuanfang's rashness, but he still nodded, stretched out his hand and signaled: "Uncle Daoxiao Wang, please." ”

When Li Yuanfang looked at Guo Ye, Guo Ye found that the other party had a solemn face, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, and he looked at the posture, and the person who came was not good. Could it be that Li Yuanfang saw something that couldn't happen?

"Guo Jungong!"

Li Yuanfang asked directly: "Yesterday afternoon, Kong Yingda and Li Jing came to the mansion to meet you, but is there such a thing?" ”

When Guo Ye heard this, he immediately thought of the stalkers at the door of his house, and then nodded without thinking and admitted: "That's right, Li Weigong and Kong Shangshu looked for me yesterday. ”

Li Yuanfang sneered when he heard this, and continued to be aggressive: "What are they looking for you for?" Did Guo Jungong reveal to them the cooperation between us? Could it be that Guo Jungong is not sincere in cooperating with us? Or, what else is Guo Jungong hiding from us? ”

With four questions in one breath, Li Yuanfang crackled and asked for a while, without giving Guo Ye the slightest room to consider.

However, this did not stump Guo Ye, I saw Guo Ye looking at Li Yuanfang with disdain, and pretended to be angry and scolded: "King Daoxiao, you actually sent someone to spy on me? Can we do things to force our faces? ”

Facing Guo Ye's ridicule, Li Yuanfang was not annoyed, but sneered at himself: "Surveillance or not, this is a matter of opinion, if Guo Jungong has no ghosts in his heart, then why are you afraid that I will send someone to monitor?" ”

"Haha, you're still arrogant when you do something wrong."

Guo Ye laughed angrily twice and said, "Okay, since you want to know, then I'll answer you." Yes, yesterday afternoon, Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, and Kong Yingda, the secretary of the ministry, came to my house together to look for me. What does this mean? ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengqian's face froze, while King Lu and Hou Junji looked at Guo Ye with a wary face, obviously, they, like Li Yuanfang, knew about this matter early.

Guo Ye took the expressions of several people present into his eyes, and continued to look at himself and said: "The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, in Chang'an City, who doesn't know that I, Guo Ye, am a person from the Shilin Qingliu lineage, why is it strange that Kong Yingda came to my house to find me?" As for Wei Guogong Li Jing, we have a very close personal relationship, so what can he do if he comes to me? Can I still keep them out and say that I am going to be a disloyal and unrighteous person, and that I am going to plot against you and am ready to change the world? King Daoxiao, Li Yuanfang, you are known for your resourcefulness, why do you have all the paste in your head? ”

"You ......"

Li Yuanfang was given Guo Ye's straightforward but reasonable explanation, and his face suddenly couldn't hold back, and he asked with little confidence: "It's that simple?" Didn't you say something to them that shouldn't have been said? ”

Guo Ye sneered: "Are you like you and I have a brain that lacks roots?" You just asked me if I really want to work with you, right? Well, I'll tell you right now-

I don't fucking want to, a hundred a thousand don't! ”

"What?"

"Guo Ye, what do you mean?"

"Guo Jungong, what do you mean by this?"

For a while, several people present couldn't sit still, and they all stood up and surrounded Guo Ye cautiously.

Even Li Yuanfang was ready to drop the cup to warn and summoned the guards outside the study.

At this critical juncture, he heard Guo Ye take two steps forward and approached Li Yuanfang, and scolded angrily: "If it weren't for the Emperor Taishang who detained my brother and threatened me with our brother, do you think I would have made this troubled water?" If there is a choice, Lao Tzu will not do this big rebellion that loses his head. Today, I will tell you the truth, after this matter is over, you will put back my brother, and I, Guo Ye, will unload my armor and return to the field to stay away from Chang'an, and you will never have anything to do with it in the future. From now on, you will walk on your sunny path, and I will take my single-plank bridge. Okay, King Daoxiao, if you have anything else to ask, let's ask them all together. Save you from being suspicious all day long, doing some ghost tricks to spy on me all day long. ”

Guo Ye was full of anger and resentment when he said this, and he heard that a few people present look at me, I look at you, each with their own thoughts.

And Li Yuanfang also bowed his head and was silent, thinking about what Guo Ye said, yes, he was forced to be coerced by his father and emperor, otherwise, where would he easily give in and do this big thing?

At this time, Li Chengqian's mind was different from Li Yuanfang's, he didn't want Guo Ye to return to Chang'an after his success in his move, and he was counting on Guo Ye to help him get rid of these people who were hindering him.

If there is no Guo Ye, he really doesn't know who to count on, and he may really be a puppet prince and puppet emperor for the rest of his life.

Immediately, he hurriedly waved his hands and persuaded: "Okay, okay, it's all a misunderstanding, it's obviously a misunderstanding." Uncle Daoxiao Wang, this is your mistake, you are so dignified, why did you send someone to spy on Guo Jungong? Don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, I believe that Guo Ye is sincere and sincere to cooperate with us. Otherwise, my grandfather wouldn't have thought so highly of him. ”

Saying that, he personally stepped forward to pull Guo Ye away from Li Yuanfang, invited him back to his seat, and then quickly changed the topic and asked Li Yuanqing, the king of Lu: "King Lu, this morning I announced to my father and emperor to the ministers that we will choose to go to Jiangnan after the year, for us, this is a great opportunity." ”

As soon as Li Chengqian said this, Hou Junji also hurriedly echoed: "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is extremely true, although King Lu and King Daoxiao did not participate in the early dynasty, they should have heard about it, right?" ”

King Lu glanced at King Daoxiao, and happened to collide with Li Yuanfang's eyes slightly. King Lu shook his head slightly and blinked his eyes, as if reminding Li Yuanfang that Guo Ye's matter should end here.

Afterwards, King Lu and Li Yuanfang each returned to their seats.

King Lu nodded and said, "Yes, this is also the reason why everyone is gathered in this king's mansion today, of course, this is also what my father meant." Although his old man is in the palace, he is strategizing and knows the world's affairs. He said that Li Shimin left Chang'an and went to the south of the Yangtze River, and the crown prince temporarily handled the affairs of the court, which was definitely an opportunity for us. Once Li Shimin leaves Chang'an and arrives in Jiangnan, we can do something. ”

"Okay!"

Hou Junji slapped his hands excitedly and praised: "Finally waited for this day!" ”

"Ahem, ahem...... Calm down, everybody. ”

Li Yuanfang spoke again, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "It is gratifying that Li Shimin decided to go to Jiangnan this time when we were preparing to do something, but I still have to say it again about the specific action plan." The greater the chance of success, the more careful we must be step by step, next, this king will briefly talk about our plan this time, what is wrong or inappropriate, you can work together to prove one or two. ”

Hou Junji still couldn't hide his excitement and said: "I want to hear it in detail, King Daoxiao, please speak!" ”

Li Chengqian also urged: "Uncle Daoxiao Wang, hurry up!" ”

King Lu glanced at Guo Ye and said with a smile: "Okay, Guo Jungong, the misunderstanding just now has passed, so there is no need to hold a grudge in your heart." ”

Guo Ye sneered secretly, a group of things that don't know whether they are dead or alive, you should die!

Then, he still arched his hand to Li Yuanfang with a displeased face, and said in an urn voice: "Since I, Guo Ye, have agreed, even if I can't get used to your villain face of King Daoxiao, I won't care about my brother's life and death, one yard to one yard." King Dohyo, please speak......"
