Chapter 865: Tempting Li Yuan
Time passed little by little, Li Jiancheng took a sip of the hot tea cup from time to time, but his eyes never left the temple door for a moment.
After the charcoal in the charcoal basin was burned, the palace people lightly replaced it with new charcoal.
None of this attracted Li Jiancheng's attention, until Pei Jiancheng's figure appeared at the door of the hall, and Li Jiancheng's eyes instantly glowed.
He put down the teacup, leaned forward with his upper body, and stared at Pei Lian: "No need to be polite, please sit." ”
Then he sent all the palace people in the palace down.
"How's it going?" Li Jiancheng was a little impatient.
Pei Lin smiled, his expression was relaxed: "Your Highness, rest assured, after the persuasion of the minister, Your Majesty has been shaken."
"Next, Your Majesty should take action."
"Great." Li Jiancheng couldn't help but cheer.
After being happy, Li Jiancheng said to Pei Lin gratefully: "Thanks to Pei Gong this time, things are so smooth.
"Pei Gong, don't worry, your credit is the greatest, I will keep it in my heart and wait for the future...... I will not do you any wrong. ”
Although Li Jiancheng did not say it thoroughly, Pei Lin knew very well in his heart that if Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, he would still be the first minister, and the title would also rise.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Pei Lin expressed his loyalty again before retiring and leaving.
After that, Li Jiancheng summoned the ministers of the East Palace and told them about it.
Zhao Hongzhi said: "Your Majesty will really get rid of King Qin?" If Pei Fu's intention is wrong, wouldn't His Highness be happy in vain. ”
The smile on Li Jiancheng's face instantly froze.
There is a lot of truth in that.
Although Pei Lin has followed his father for many years and knows his father's temperament very well, after his father became the emperor, his mind is much deeper than before, and Pei Lin may not be able to guess his father's mind.
At this time, Wei Zheng said: "If Pei Fu shoots or not, you can find out if you try it." ”
Li Jiancheng immediately looked at him: "How to try?" ”
Wei Zheng didn't answer directly, but mentioned a person: "Last time, Xiang Yushi deliberately framed the King of Qin, and His Majesty put him and Cheng Zhijie in the prison of the Criminal Department, didn't the case end yesterday?" ”
"yes." Xu Shimo continued: "Your Majesty let Cheng Zhijie go, but killed Xiang Yushi.
"Cheng Zhijie didn't participate in this matter in the first place, it's normal for Your Majesty to let him go, but Xiang Yushi didn't commit a crime to death, but His Majesty killed him, don't you think this punishment is too heavy?"
Zhao Hongzhi nodded: "It's a bit heavy." ”
Others chimed in.
Now that he thinks about it, Li Jiancheng also feels that his father's handling of Xiang Yushi is too heavy, and he originally thought that Xiang Yushi would be removed from his official position by his father at most.
If he is only removed from his official position, he can still give Xiang Yushi a rich and stable life, and in the future, after he ascends the throne, he can also reactivate Xiang Yushi.
These are the promises he made to Yushi, but he didn't expect his father to be sentenced to death directly.
"Look, I didn't say it wrong just now, Pei Fujiao is really likely to be wrong about the holy will." Zhao Hongzhi seemed to have discovered something that no one else had discovered, and he was very proud.
He analyzed with everyone with great interest: "Xiang Yushi framed the King of Qin, and His Majesty killed Xiang Yushi, which is obviously avenging the King of Qin, so His Majesty still has a father-son relationship with the King of Qin, and it is impossible for him to kill the King of Qin." ”
"Your Majesty didn't have a murderous intent against King Qin yesterday, but after today's events, coupled with Pei Fu's advice, he moved to kill him, which is not impossible." Shan Xiongxin retorted.
Li Jiancheng nodded, this is a good thing.
"So, we need to find out your majesty's true heart." Wei Zheng said.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him in unison, Wei Zheng continued the topic just now: "Didn't we make a plan to transfer the people from the Qin Palace's Mansion from Chang'an? Now it's time to act.
"If Your Majesty transfers them out of Chang'an, it means that Your Majesty really wants to get rid of King Qin."
Li Jiancheng thought for a while: "It's really a good idea." ”
At this time, Zhao Hongzhi proposed: "Your Highness, now that it is the time of the official assessment, you can ask Feng Shangshu to present this list to Your Majesty." ”
Li Jiancheng adopted his opinion and ordered someone to pass on Feng Deyi.
Two hours later, Feng Deyi appeared in the East Palace: "The minister has seen His Highness." ”
Li Jiancheng waved away from the palace people, leaving only Wei Zheng, and he first asked: "The assessment of the officials should be over, right?" ”
"Yes, in two days, the minister will report this matter to His Majesty." Feng Deyi replied respectfully, but in his heart he was guessing Li Jiancheng's intentions.
Hearing this, Li Jiancheng smiled: "Since there is no report yet, let's make some changes." ”
After speaking, he looked at Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng received his hint and immediately took out a piece of paper and handed it to Feng Deyi.
"This is ......" Feng Deyi took the paper suspiciously, opened it and looked at it.
After seeing the list inside, Feng Deyi's face changed.
Li Jiancheng stared at Feng Deyi's face and said slowly: "You follow this list, make a slight change, and then rewrite the Feng Song and submit it to Your Majesty." ”
Feng Deyi was a little embarrassed: "This ...... There are too many people who have been transferred, and they are all from Tiance Mansion.
"Although the minister is in charge of the ministry, the minister is also the Sima of the Tiance Mansion, and if such a person from the Tiance Mansion is mobilized at once, the King of Qin will definitely make trouble for me.
"In case the minister is exposed, there will be no one lurking in the Tiance Mansion to deliver news to His Highness in the future."
Li Jiancheng was silent for a moment: "Then reduce a few people, but we must transfer King Qin's wise trust and the most capable cadres out of Chang'an." ”
"Your Highness, it's easy for me to be exposed by doing this." Feng Deyi is still very difficult.
Seeing Feng Deyi's reluctant look, Li Jiancheng suddenly stretched his face and said angrily: "What? You're going to reject me? ”
Hearing this, Feng Deyi immediately knelt down: "The minister doesn't dare, the minister is just worried, the minister finally got the trust of King Qin, and can deliver the news of Tiance Mansion to you in time."
"If my identity is revealed because of this matter, I'm afraid that King Qin will expel me from Tiance Mansion, who will work for you at that time?"
Li Jiancheng suddenly smiled, and his tone became gentle: "My father always told me that Feng Shangshu is extremely wise and a rare virtuous minister.
"You have been hiding in Tiance Mansion for so many years, it can be seen that your intelligence is extraordinary, I believe that with your intelligence, you will never reveal your identity because of this trivial matter.
"I'm still waiting for you to help me win the final victory, so that you can get what you want."
Feng Deyi: "......"
He gritted his teeth and solemnly took the task: "Yes, the minister will do his best to complete the task." ”
"Good." Li Jiancheng was very satisfied, "You step down." ”
"The minister retired."
Feng Deyi collected the list and left the East Palace with heavy steps.
It wasn't until Feng Deyi's back disappeared at the door of the hall that Li Jiancheng spoke up: "Does Xuancheng think Feng Shangshu can do it?" ”
"Yes." Wei Zheng was very confident in Feng Deyi, he said: "Back then, Feng Deyi was able to escape from the chaotic Luoyang alone and join King Xia. After arriving in the Xia Kingdom, he was able to get the appreciation of the Xia King again.
"After King Xia was destroyed, when His Majesty disliked him, he was able to turn the situation around and make His Majesty trust him, which shows that he is resourceful.
"With his resourcefulness, he will be able to accomplish this task."
Hearing Wei Zheng say this, Li Jiancheng was relieved......
