I'm not Yuan Fang, I'm a fart! Seeing that the eyes of several big people were converging on him, Li Jie was depressed and just wanted to vomit blood, this is not just a question of yes or no, if he said yes, he would completely fall into trouble with the prince, Li Tai, the king of Wei, this guy can rely on pigs and will go up the tree, and if he says no, he will offend Li Tai again, and he is not pleasing on both sides.

Damn, it's the same son, why is the treatment so bad? Feeling indignant in his heart, Li Jie's head was not confused, and after thinking about it for a while, he gave up his hand vaguely and complained: "Erchen thinks that this matter is still quite strange. ”

"Oh? How so? Li Shimin immediately raised his eyebrows in interest.

After coughing again, Li Jie slowly gestured: "First of all, the assassins who assassinated Erchen and the ten younger brothers are all from the Zuotun Guards, almost two of them, first of all, General Shangshuhou of the Ministry of War has an unshirkable responsibility, but the real purpose of these Zuotun Guards is still worth investigating in detail, after all, they are the Zuotun Guards, not an ordinary army!" ”

Li Shimin, who heard this, couldn't help but bow his head and think deeply, and nodded or shook his head for some time to think about something.

Zuotun Guard, originally not called this name, but the prince's left and right guard rate, and today's Donggong guard rate, Li Chengqian's appearance of not being able to command at all is different, that group of people have been on the battlefield, the real hidden prince Li Jiancheng is die-hard and their descendants are not just on the throne when the foothold is unstable, Li Shimin is absolutely impossible to allow such an army to exist.

It's a pity that because the Turks forced to the city, Li Shimin had to reach a compromise with the previous supporters of Jiancheng, and most of the people behind this part of the army were also members of the Guanlong military aristocracy, which had to be retained for so many years.

"The feelings of the Zuotun guards towards the prince are extraordinary, and with the use of this feeling, maybe some conspirators have instigated the antagonism of the Zuotun guards, and it is not impossible for them to do this kind of thing."

"What do you mean?" Li Shimin raised his head again, his brows were still so tightly wrinkled, but there was a little more appreciation and brilliance in his eyes of a pair of dark dragons, and Li Jie, who saw it, was even more clear, and bowed his head slightly and said: "Erchen thinks that this matter should be considered in the long run, strictly investigated, and the villain's conspiracy cannot be allowed to succeed!" ”

"Very well, as it should be." Without waiting for Li Tai to say anything more, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction, and then nodded kindly to Li Tai and said, "Qingque will go back to the Wude Hall first, and the father will investigate thoroughly at this time." “

Although he was very unwilling, Li Tai still had to give up: "Obey the orders of my father." ”

"Li Jie, it's obviously his Li Chengqian's hand, just in front of his father, why didn't you just say it directly." Out of the Taiji Palace, he didn't go far, Li Tai couldn't help it anymore, and roared with Li Jie.

Calling people by name is a very impolite thing, even Li Zhi on the side couldn't help frowning, full of anger and wanted to come forward to theorize, but he didn't expect Li Jie to secretly pinch Li Zhi's sleeve and pull him behind him.

"Fourth brother, do you think Jie Ye said that the prince did it, can you pull the prince off the horse?" In a deep voice, Li Jie asked expressionlessly, and Li Tai, who asked immediately, choked up, and after a while, he had to shake his head.

"Isn't this enough, since he can't help the prince, why is he aggressive to prepare for him, at this time, strict investigation to the end will be beneficial to the fourth brother and us, if you really want to find out any real evidence, the prince is at a loss."

Li Jie didn't say check, but what he said, Li Tai once again lowered his head and thought deeply, watching Li Tai say something for himself, Li Jie added lightly. "What the fourth brother should do now is to take good care of the few assassins he has caught, and prevent some people from killing him."

Li Tai's face changed again, and he turned around and left without saying a word in a trace of eccentricity, forgetting Li Tai's figure walking away, Li Zhi, who couldn't hold back anymore, finally snorted angrily: "Hmph, the fourth brother is so domineering before he becomes the prince, he doesn't take us brothers in his eyes at all, he wants to be, and he can't raise his eyes to the sky!" Self-righteous fat pig! ”

"What if Xiaozhi becomes the crown prince?"

"If the young slave becomes the prince, he must treat all the brothers respectfully and kindly, of course, not including that fat cold melon......" casually came out, Li Zhi reacted at this time, and his face changed greatly and looked at Li Jie.

"Nine, Brother Jiu, what are you talking about, I, I ......"

"Nothing." Li Jie interrupted Li Zhi's stumbling words and changed the topic aside, "We had better not get involved too deep in the assassination case, things are too weird, go back and sleep well today, forget all this, tomorrow our brothers will go to Jinxingfang to investigate, and the Great Ci'en Temple will be built next year." ”

"Well, I listen to Brother Jiu." Although he replied like this, Li Jie's words just now still made Li Zhi's heart itch and messy, and he lost his energy when he spoke. Li Jie didn't care about him, and while walking, he was taking care of himself and chattering.

"Xiaozhi, the guards in your house are really speechless, Brother Jiu, I will recommend you a few stronger swordsmen."

"Yes, Brother Xie Jiu."

"Also, be careful when you eat these days."

"Yes, the slave knows."

The two brothers chatted slowly, and unconsciously arrived at the gate of the palace, just about to negotiate with the gatekeeper to get out of the palace, at this time, a small eunuch behind him suddenly hurriedly ran over, this eunuch was obviously a child who had just entered the palace, running recklessly all the way, a strange face was full of sweat, and hurriedly shouted at Li Jie's back: "King Shuo stays." ”

"Huhu, Your Majesty, Your Majesty has an order to summon His Royal Highness the King of Shuo to the Imperial Garden." Seeing that Li Jie and the two stopped, the little eunuch's face was full of excitement, but after stopping in front of the two, he lowered his voice and whispered, which made Li Zhi immediately confused: "Father is real, I didn't say anything just now, what are you talking about now?" ”

Li Jie's eyes suddenly flashed with a glimmer of light, and he grabbed the little eunuch's hand sharply and asked, "Then the king asked you, the dress my father is wearing today?" ”

"Minions, minions don't remember." was suddenly frightened by Li Jie, and the little eunuch stumbled. After all, he was still a royal child, Li Zhi reacted immediately, stretched out his hand and pointed at the little eunuch and shouted in a deep voice: "Come on, arrest him." ”

The two forbidden soldiers stepped forward with black faces, pressed the little eunuch to the ground like a chicken, and was so frightened that he screamed, and the little eunuch still cried and shouted: "His Royal Highness King Shuo, Your Majesty really has a will!" ”

"Nonsense, my father summoned the prince and didn't really go to a remote place like the Imperial Garden." Li Zhi said angrily again, but Li Jie stretched out his hand to stop in front of him and whispered, "He is telling the truth. ”

"Then, Brother Jiu......" Li Zhi raised his head uncertainly. After thinking about it, Li Jie simply leaned on Li Zhi's ear and whispered: "I'll go to the Imperial Garden to see the driver, tenth brother, you detain this person, if something happens to me, these people are witnesses." ”

"Brother Jiu, don't worry." Li Zhi solemnly agreed, and after nodding, Li Jie gritted his teeth and turned around and walked towards the inside of the Taiji Palace.

No wonder Li Jie suspects that the palace is not everywhere, the imperial garden is remote and desolate, and the dilapidated appearance is a mess, the Taiji Palace is passed on from the former Sui Daxing Palace, Li Shimin advocates frugality, and does not repair the Taiji Palace too much, this is a neglected one, even if it is only two or three o'clock in the afternoon, it is still gloomy here.

"Father?" Carefully turning left and right in the strange bushes, Li Jie's heart is also hairy, he grew up in the palace since he was a child, and the ghost stories here can be compared to the terrifying thirteenth floor. In the miserable shadows, Li Jie's hands subconsciously touched the sleeves.

"His Royal Highness King Shuo!"

The snort startled Li Jie a lot, and he turned around suddenly, but Li Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief, it was Zhang Chao, the left Zhonglang general of Qianniuwei, and Li Shimin's personal guard.

"His Royal Highness King Shuo, please come with the ministers, Your Majesty is waiting in the Xiu Courtyard."

"Okay." For Zhang Chao, Li Jie was also very relieved, nodded and agreed, followed Zhang Chao, and followed the winding path for another distance, only then did he arrive at a dilapidated small courtyard in the grove, and saw Li Shimin's dark rolling dragon robe, Li Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I've seen my father."

"Lao Jiu, you are cautious enough." Bowing to Li Jie, Li Shimin turned around and joked with a smile, but unfortunately Li Jie couldn't laugh at this joke anyway.

"Erchen also felt weird for a while, after all, in this place, Erchen was disobedient when he was a child, and the mother concubine scared Erchen and said that Erchen was sent here." Still bowing, Li Jie skillfully led the topic elsewhere, making Li Shimin stunned, but his smile was a little sincere, he shook his head with a smile and muttered, "This is fun." ”

Fun? has been the son of Concubine Yang for more than ten years, and Li Jie is also the first time until his mother's nickname, just muttered in a low voice, Li Shimin also realized that he should not say this in front of his son, first his face was flat, his emotions were brewed, and then he became sad again.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here?"

"I don't know." Li Jie bowed slightly again, looking at his expression with satisfaction, Li Shimin looked left and right with some emotion, and then muttered full of memories: "Former Sui, Emperor Yang succeeded to the throne in Luoyang, at the beginning of his accession, the first order was to give death to the former prince Yang Yong, in this courtyard, Yang Yong's three sons Yang Ke of Xiangcheng, Yang Gai of Gaoyang, Yang Shao, King of Jian'an, and three * year-old children were all killed here. ”

Li Jie immediately became a spirit, the bottom of his head was lower, and sure enough, Li Shimin looked at him with faint eyes and whispered: "Jie'er, I want you to go to Dali Temple to do one thing, I don't want this matter to be pursued further!" Do you understand what I mean? ”

With a shake of his back, an indescribable anger rose in Li Jie's heart, from yesterday to today, even if he was not the main target of the assassin, he was still busy paying attention to the driver, and similarly, he was assassinated almost at the same time, Li Tai, the king of Wei, had a gathering of imperial doctors since yesterday, waiting carefully, until today's court, Li Shimin did not ask a word of concern for him and Li Zhi, and even now he handed this dirty job to him again regardless of his feelings.

"The retainers obeyed." Breathing strongly and swallowing a few times, Li Jie struggled to respond, and at this time, Li Jie suddenly felt that he suddenly understood why Li Chengqian hated Li Tai, the king of Wei, so much.

"Good, go ahead."

Zhang Chao took out a gold medal from his arms, Li Shimin also waved his hand with satisfaction, and as a result, Li Jie turned around and left, but before he could take two steps, Li Shimin suddenly stopped him from behind.

"Jie'er, I'm curious, at the gate of Ganye Temple, what did you use to kill that assassin? The skull burst and he died instantly. ”

Looking at Li Shimin's faint eyes, he paused again, Li Jie still slowly took out the fire gun from his sleeve, handed it to the vigilant Zhang Chao, checked it, Zhang Chao then handed it to Li Shimin, curiously pulled the trigger on the flower tree, nothing happened, Li Shimin turned his head and looked at it inquiringly.

"Father, this thing also needs a magic medicine and a lead pill, these two things, the sons never bring into the palace." Arch your hands. Li Jie replied respectfully, let Li Shimin nod again, and fiddled a few more times, then shook his head and muttered boringly: "Wuzi steel, these weights are enough to fight a good sword, okay, let's go." ”

Stretching out his hand, Li Jie took it and put it in his sleeve again, looked at Li Shimin, bowed heavily and turned to withdraw, looking at his back, Li Shimin laughed with his head held high.

"Xuanwu Gate, Xuanwu Gate, hehe, it's quite similar to here."
