Chapter 263: Interlocking

"Smack!"

While the wine was splashing, Qiao Gongshan poured in response.

Blood gushed from the corners of his forehead, and the bronze wine cup bounced into the air. Immediately "dang" fell to the ground, and the foot of the cup was broken.

It can be seen how much force is used this time.

"Nonsense, nonsense!" Li Yuan was so angry that he got up, ignoring it was still difficult to reduce the anger in his heart, grabbed the wine jug and threw it over.

This time it was on the right head, and it smashed on Qiao Gongshan's body that fell to the ground.

Li Yuan lost his father since he was a child, grew up alone, knew the pain of not having a father's love, and killed his son and grandson because of the uprising. Out of various feelings, he has extraordinary feelings for his children, trusting, pampering and even indulging them.

But the two people in front of him actually said that his most relieved eldest son, when he was the crown prince, wanted to rebel when he was in charge of the country.

How can Li Yuan believe it, how dare he believe it!

No words could express the anger in his heart at the moment, like a mad lion, roaring and roaring.

Qiao Gongshan climbed up with a roll, "It's true! His Majesty The prince of Donggong had already colluded with the governor of Gyeongju Yang Du to rebel, and they were indeed preparing to attack the palace at night...... Your Majesty! At this point, Qiao Gongshan knew that if he wanted to survive now, he had to continue to act, and the more he acted, the better.

He fell to his knees and kept kowtowing and shouting.

The wooden paved ground made him smash his head with a "bang", knocking and knocking knocked himself out and fell to the ground.

Er Zhuhuan is not as good at words as Qiao Gongshan, and everything he says is what Qiao Gongshan said.

Now Qiao Gongshan is dizzy. He didn't know what to say, so he turned his heart sideways and roared: "Look at Your Majesty!" "Emulate Qiao Gongshan. Then I knocked up.

Li Yuan really wanted to slash the two people in front of him with a thousand knives in his heart, but another voice in his heart told him that he couldn't act recklessly. He is the emperor after all, and what an emperor is most worried about is rebellion.

"Your Majesty is angry!" Pei Lin had a calm face and strode out, now it was his turn to express himself, "This matter, whether it is true or not, is an extremely strict matter, and it should be thoroughly investigated to the end." ”

Li Yuan forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart. sat down, still staring at Er Zhuhuan with a cannibalistic gaze, but his tone was much softened. asked, "You say, how did you know that the prince was plotting...... Rebel? ”

Er Zhuhuan raised his head, a trace of blood flowed down his forehead, and he trembled: "Return to Your Majesty." Small...... The little ones don't know much. It was overheard by Captain Qiao Gongshan and Xu Shimo, a housekeeper under the command of the crown prince, when they were drinking. Captain Qiao is good friends with Xu Shimo, and some time ago, he saw Xu Shimo's stern demeanor and his heart was very serious, thinking that something unpleasant had happened to him. And they took him and drank with him, that they might comfort him. The wine was drunk, and Xu Shimo himself said excitedly, saying that he was about to become a minister of the dragon. It will go down in history as saying that the prince has privately deposited thousands of dead soldiers in Gyeongju. Prepare for a night attack on Phoenix Valley. The lieutenant was so frightened that he didn't dare to divulge half a sentence. He and I were ordered to send weapons and armor to Yang Dudu, and all the way to the border of Gyeongju, Captain Qiao couldn't help but tell me about it. ”

Er Zhuhuan didn't dare to raise his head, and continued: "I was stupid when I heard the news, rebellion is the crime of the Nine Clans. I, I have the old and the young, give me a hundred leopards, and I don't dare to do this great thing against the sky. As soon as we put it together, we went straight here. The sentences that the small one said are true, and he is clearly aware of his majesty. ”

Quiet!

Li Yuan did not speak.

Pei Lin didn't speak.

Feng Deyi never opened his mouth from the beginning.

The same is true of Rothsson.

Li Yuan was eager to find out a little bit of what Er Zhuhuan said to prove that he was lying.

But no!

If Er Zhuhuan said that Li Jiancheng consulted with them or knew the details of the whole incident, or overheard it somewhere, he would have a way to find out what was not true.

After all, this kind of major event, even Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan are not qualified to know, and it is impossible to find a place to discuss it casually.

For this kind of problem, the most important thing is to distinguish the truth from the false.

But this drunken spit out the truth, then it is difficult to discern.

Li Yuan pondered intently, repeatedly thinking about Er Zhuhuan's words, thinking of the sentence "The prince has privately deposited thousands of dead soldiers in Gyeongju", and suddenly a thing that happened in his mind that he thought was very small a year ago: someone secretly accused Li Jiancheng of recruiting private soldiers and plotting against him.

Huo Ran stood up!

It's incredible, and there's this deep grief.

At this moment, although he did not believe it all, he had already believed sixty percent.

Luo Shixin looked at Li Yuan's sudden movement and knew that he was thinking of that thing.

This is Li Shimin's real cleverness.

The foreshadowing was laid more than half a year ago.

It is impossible for Li Shimin to make a faint move, and the original faint move is the result of today.

Half a year ago, someone came up with real evidence to accuse Li Jiancheng of plotting wrongdoing, but Li Yuan did not believe it. He thinks that there is no witness, and every qiē is fake. Instead, he connived at Li Jiancheng's privately recruited Changlin soldiers. Half a year later, someone accused Li Jiancheng of intending to rebel, and this time there were both human and physical evidence: Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan were human witnesses, and the weapons and armor escorted all the way were physical evidence. If you don't intend to rebel, what reason is there to recruit additional private soldiers and require additional weapons and armor?

Even if there is no real evidence, there are three people who have become tigers, not to mention that the facts are there, two cases have occurred in a row, no matter how Li Yuan trusts Li Jiancheng, he can't help but start to be suspicious in his heart.

This is Li Shimin's cleverness, Li Shimin's false accusation against Li Jiancheng, the matter is false, but the facts are true.

If Li Jiancheng did not recruit Turkic cavalry in the East Palace, did not recruit Changlin soldiers in the Imperial Palace, did not recruit private soldiers in Gyeongju, did not transport armor to Gyeongju, and did not do this qiē qiē is not a rebellion, but it means rebellion, Li Shimin will not be able to catch him.

Now Li Shimin's accusations against Li Jiancheng, except for rebellion, everything else is true, that is, Li Yuan wants to prove that his son can't do it if he doesn't oppose himself. is that Pei Lin is good friends with Li Jiancheng, and he can't help him speak.

At this time, a sentence suddenly came from outside the house, and Xue Yong, the general of the Right Xiaowei, had an urgent matter to ask to see the general.

Li Yuanzheng was sad about Li Jiancheng's matter, which made people interrupt like this, his eyebrows couldn't help but pick, and he waved his hand to let him go down.

Luo Shixin didn't speak, but just confessed and retreated.

There was still a blink of an eye to go out, and Luo Shixin hurriedly walked in.

"Your Majesty, there is a scholar outside, saying that there is an urgent matter to ask for your majesty, and the matter is related to the safety of your majesty." Luo Shixin's expression was stern.

Li Yuan's heart moved, and he linked the two things together, and seeing that Luo Shixin was here, he was not worried about his safety, and ordered: "Go, let someone invite that scholar." ”

Luo Shixin went out and ordered Xue Yong, who was waiting for news, to bring people.

The valley of the Phoenix Valley is a little far from the Inchi Palace.

The atmosphere in the Ninji Hall was silent.

Li Yuan didn't know what to say, so he first ordered Li Shimin and Pingyang to be invited together, and told them about the current situation.

"How is that possible! As the eldest brother, as the crown prince, how could he rebel? Pingyang jumped up excitedly, and looked at Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan viciously with his eyes.

Li Shimin also said: "Erchen doesn't believe that the eldest brother will rebel, is there any misunderstanding in this?" ”

Li Yuan was relieved to see that his son and daughter were saying this, and sighed: "The specific situation, my father and emperor are not very clear......" Before he could say anything, there was news from outside that Du Feng wanted to see him.

Li Yuan kept his mouth shut and asked people to come in.

Du Feng is an elderly middle-aged scholar, dressed in a dry Confucian suit, with a Zhuge scarf, if you add a feather fan to your hand, she is dressed like a Zhuge fan. It has long been unpopular to wear Zhuge scarves, but the Tang Dynasty is tolerant of all rivers, and it is not strange that they are not particular about clothing or anything.

"Caomin Ningzhou Du Feng, meet Your Majesty!" Du Feng greeted with a bit of humility and arrogance.

Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "You said that I am in this Renzhi Palace, what is the danger? ”

Du Feng said in a respectful voice: "Back to Your Majesty, the danger is coming to Gyeongju, and the grass people suspect that Yang Wengan, the governor of Gyeongju, has the intention of rebellion. ”

Li Yuan's heart trembled and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Du Feng said: "The grass people live near the Ningzhou Mansion, in recent days, the Ningzhou officials and troops have quite a strange movement, I heard that it is the governor of Gyeongju to give some orders, it seems that there are signs of approaching the Phoenix Valley, the action is very sneaky, the grass people are worried that it will pose a threat to the safety of His Majesty, so I came to remind you." ”

Li Yuan's eyes closed.

It is true that Yang Wengan is the governor of Gyeongju, but the governor of Gyeongju has a large area under his jurisdiction, and in addition to the garrison of Gyeongju, the surrounding provinces of Yuanzhou, Ningzhou, and Bonju are all under his command, just like the defense of the Great Wall north of the Jingshi. Li Jiancheng was in charge of the northern defense line, and Yang Wengan was single-handedly promoted to the top position.

The Renzhi Palace is located in the Phoenix Valley of Zhongnan Mountain in Fangzhou, and it is not far from the north of the mountain to enter the boundary of Ningzhou, and Gyeongju is north of Ningzhou. If Yang Wengan, the governor of Gyeongju, really wanted to send troops to attack Inji Palace, he would inevitably pass through Ningzhou, and Ningzhou would inevitably take action.

Du Feng is in the same shape, which happens to coincide with Er Zhuhuan and Qiao Gongshan.

Throw plenty of dirt and some will be sure to stick!

Li Yuan didn't believe it once, doubted it twice, and coincidentally three times, and he found that he had to believe it.

Li Yuan kicked the case, turned the huge case table, and the fruits and food on the seat were sprinkled all over the ground, and then he sat down on the seat in despair, and muttered distractedly: "Built, is it really the opposite?" ”

"No, no, big brother won't do that." Binh Duong still didn't believe it.

"Erlang, what do you say should be done about this?" Li Yuan asked his other son.

Li Shimin said: "The eldest brother has always been benevolent, and the sons and daughters can't believe that the eldest brother will rebel." It is better to send someone to bring him and inquire about the reason. ”

Li Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "General, you immediately send someone to Chang'an to pass on my edict to invite the crown prince to Renzhi Palace, and just say, just talk about discussing the matter of guarding against the Turks after the autumn." ”

Everyone present knew in their hearts that Li Yuan was really suspicious of Li Jiancheng, otherwise he would not have used the excuse of guarding against the Turks. (To be continued......)
