Chapter 497: Li You Wants to Rebel?
"This ...... Thank you so much! ”
The person locked up in a small space is obviously a person with status.
After all, this person wearing a long history brocade robe used to often go in and out of the restaurant in Chang'an East City, although the Piff Pavilion can be regarded as the No. 1 in Chang'an City, but the things of the Piff Pavilion are affordable by ordinary people, and the people in this brocade robe naturally do not come often.
But now it's different, now his life has been pinched in the hands of others, and he has been locked up here for two days, and the torture he received does not need to be detailed, the key is that he is not even called for food, and he is about to starve to death.
Now, someone has come to bring him rice, roast chicken, braised iron lion head, rock sugar elbow, and three shreds of plum vegetables...... In his opinion, this kind of good food is already the best food in the world.
However, he suddenly remembered the practice in Datang prison, generally anyone who has been sentenced to capital punishment, that is, a death penalty, before the execution of the execution, there must be a sumptuous meal, that is, the so-called decapitated meal.
Could it be that this is your own guillotine?
"This, this uncle...... Dare to ask, dare to ask what you plan to do with the small one? ”
The brocade-robed man in the small space stretched out his hand and trembled his long hair, revealing a round face with a flattering smile, and nodded and asked.
In fact, this guy wants to ask much more than that, since he was caught here by this group of guys in black two days ago, he has been tortured by all means, although they are all flesh wounds, but his thin skin and tender flesh, where can he support it?
So, this guy said everything, from stealing other people's food when he was a child, to assassinating the martial king Li Yuanba some time ago.
Unexpectedly, after the other party heard it, he threw him directly here, and he didn't care about it for a day, and he didn't even give him food.
This made him feel even more deeply frightened, he really couldn't understand who these people were? Who are you doing for again?
"Where did all this nonsense come from?" The Celestial Guard reprimanded him impatiently. said: "Put away your crooked thoughts, this is not your guillotine!" ”
"Yes, little one understands!"
When the brocade-robed man in that small space heard that it was not his own severed head meal, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he sneered, and directly reached out and grabbed the roast chicken on the plate, and gnawed it like a wolf.
This imprisoned brocade robe man is none other than the long history of the Yan Wangfu and the confidant of Yan King Li You, Zhu Yousan.
Actually, this Zhu Yousanming is the long history of Yanwang's Mansion on his face. But in fact, some of the filths in the palace of the king of Yan. Everything is organized and operated by this guy, so this Zhu Yousan is also the person Li You values the most.
Just when Zhu Yousan was squatting in the small space and gobbling up for a while, Tang Zhong, dressed in black, appeared here on a fast horse.
Tonight, he is here to bring an end to Li You's assassination case!
……
Following.
In the inner hall of the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin summoned Tang Zhong here. Because Tang Zhong came to report a major incident to Li Yuanba.
This time, Li Shimin did not avoid Liu Sanshui, but asked Liu Sanshui to serve by his side.
After the dragon case, Li Shimin clenched his fists. His eyes were full of fire, and his face was extremely red.
In the past, Li Shimin has always felt as steady as a mountain, where can he not control the anger in his heart like today.
"You said the ground. Have you already verified it? ”
Li Shimin's voice was entangled, and there was even a hint of hoarseness.
To tell the truth, since Tang Zhong has followed Li Shimin for so many years. I have only seen Li Shimin in such an absent state only a few times.
Once, when I learned that Li Yuanba might never wake up; The second time was the night before the Xuanwumen Change, and it was extremely painful...... Today, for the third time.
But the matter has happened, Tang Zhong will not persuade anything, he is just telling the facts:
"Your Majesty, last night, in order to protect himself, His Royal Highness King Yan revealed this matter and the plate! After that, the slave immediately ordered the Heavenly Guards and the Shadow Guards to quickly collect information in this regard, and after the analysis of all aspects of the information, His Royal Highness King Yan did secretly dispatch 5,000 private soldiers from the fiefdom into Chang'an, and the long-ill former official Shangshu Hou Junji also participated in it, they conspired to secretly attack His Royal Highness King Wu, and perhaps all had the intention of assassinating the king......"
When he said this, Tang Zhong suddenly stopped, he looked at Li Shimin, and had no intention of interjecting, so he continued:
"Today, 3,000 of the 5,000 private soldiers have entered the Yanwang Mansion, and even Lord Hou has been carried to the Yanwang Mansion by his subordinates. As for what they talked about in the palace, our people have not found out yet. However, after Lord Hou went back, people kept coming out of the Hou Mansion, and at least thirty carrier pigeons flew out of the Hou Mansion, and all of those carrier pigeons were intercepted by us, and the contents of them were to fly to some state governments around Chang'an City, as for the contents...... It's all here! ”
Saying this, Tang Zhong took out thirty small bamboo tubes from a small pocket that were only about the thickness of the little finger, but the length was only half the length of the little finger.
Liu Sanshui took a few steps forward, took those small bamboo tubes, opened them one by one, and put them on Li Shimin's dragon case.
Li Shimin opened a few, looked at them casually, and found that they were all Hou Junji who contacted the local county and county government soldiers, although the number of these government soldiers was not large, but if they were added together, there were nearly 20,000 people.
If all these 20,000 people were put into Chang'an City, and Li You should put them into the Imperial City, maybe they would really be able to do it.
Of course, the premise is that there is no Shenwuwei army.
In fact, Tang Zhong took out these things much more effectively than stating his analysis.
Li Shimin himself also understood that Li You had been ready to rebel a long time ago, but he never found a chance to launch it.
But now that Li Yuanba is not dead, and Shenwuwei has only returned three thousand, Li You can't help it, he also thinks that the time has come, but with this, while fear is mixed with anger, he gathers everyone.
As for what these people are gathering for? That must be preparing to rebel, and if you get closer, it may even be in the past two days.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Shimin stood up suddenly, the anger and sadness on Fang Cai's face had completely disappeared, and the expression on his whole face became stern and cold.
I saw Li Shimin walking back and forth on the left and right of the dragon case for a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned his back to Tang Zhong and said:
"Tang Zhong, you immediately go back and raise that Zhu Yousan, take him to the edict prison of Dali Temple, and at the same time pay close attention to the reactions of the Yan Wangfu and the Hou Mansion, and if they have any changes, report them immediately!"
"Whoa!" Tang Zhong agreed, and retreated without touching the ground.
sent Tang Zhong away, and now Li Shimin has no time to rest:
"Sanshui, you immediately order someone to leave the palace and go to Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, and Li Jing...... Wait for someone to hand me over, and I will see them now! ”
"No!"
Liu Sanshui replied and respectfully went down to the hall to make arrangements.
……
An hour later, in the hall of the two ceremonies.
Li Shimin directly summoned Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji and other important civil and military ministers to enter the palace here.
"Your Majesty, this time I was summoned to the palace, but for the sake of His Royal Highness King Wu's resurrection?"
Cheng Biting Jin's big mouth, he had just entered the main hall, and he began to yell before he saw Li Shimin.
Li Jing slapped Cheng Jin angrily and said, "Just your big mouth, believe it or not, when your words were passed on to King Wu, he slapped you to death?" ”
"Forehead ......"
As the saying goes, the soft are afraid of the horizontal, the horizontal are afraid of the stunned, and the stunned are afraid of dying.
Li Yuanba, the master who launched madness, couldn't even take care of himself, but Cheng Biting Jin's nemesis, when he heard Li Jing mention this, his heart was suddenly shocked, and he quickly stopped his mouth.
"Alright, let's go in quickly!" Fang Xuanling glanced at the two of them with a smile, and walked towards the main hall first.
"The ministers have seen Your Majesty!"
Entering the main hall, Fang Xuanling and others saluted Li Shimin respectfully.
The military and political officials present are all old and well-established masters, and they can do their current position, all of them are treacherous like ghosts, so they naturally see that Li Shimin's face is not very good-looking.
"Well, you're all here!"
Li Shimin bowed slightly to everyone and said, "Let's all be flat!" ”
This voice was cold, making Fang Xuanling and the other courtiers only feel trembling all over.
"Today, I have summoned you to come here because I want to listen to your opinions!"
Li Shimin had a gloomy face and said, "Sanshui, take out that box of things and let them see it!" ”
Liu Sanshui nodded, and ordered a few little eunuchs to move out two large boxes from the apse, and the contents of the big boxes were naturally some correspondence.
I opened the box, took out some letters from it, and looked at it carefully.
As the letters in the box were turned out one by one, Li You's shocking matter of rebellion was finally told to everyone.
As a result, everyone was shocked, and no one thought that with the current noble identity of Li You, the king of Yan, he would come to the road of no return to rebellion.
However, Fang Xuanling and these people are all important ministers of the country, so naturally they will not be surprised, and soon they will express their opinions on this.
"Your Majesty, although these things are enough to kill His Royal Highness King Yan at the moment, after all, they are in the fog, and some things are not accurate!"
Fang Xuanling shook off the letters in his hand and said, "Even if these things are offered to the public, I'm afraid the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty won't believe it, right?" ”
"yes!" Li Ji nodded and said: "Over the years, His Royal Highness King Yan has no other bad deeds except for being arrogant and domineering on weekdays, if you want to say that he secretly cultivates a private army and collects huge amounts of wealth in the local area, I'm afraid no one will believe it!"
