Chapter 270: Cui
This night, in the palace.
In the palace where the King of Jin lived, two uninvited guests came at this time.
They had a clear goal, and immediately decided to kidnap King Jin after seeing him resting in the house.
However, to their surprise, before they came down from the roof, they were surrounded by soldiers who had been ambushed early.
The two immediately glanced at each other and immediately decided to run away and leave.
But the ambush in the palace was not so easy to escape, and after a hard battle, he finally died and fled.
King Jin also woke up from his sweet sleep, looked at the sword light and sword shadow outside and didn't dare to make a sound, knowing that it was calm outside, the nurse walked in, looked at King Jin and said, "There are assassins, but they have been cleared now." ”
King Jin looked at the nurse with some concern and said, "What about the son?" She's okay! ”
The nurse nodded and looked at King Jin and said, "Princess Jinyang is sleeping well!" These two assassins are highly skilled, Your Highness should have a good rest, and I will send someone over to take care of Princess Jinyang! ”
But after such a dangerous thing, how could King Jin sleep.
Li Chengqian was also awakened from his sleep, and it was Cheng Chumo who called him and informed Li Chengqian that someone was going to assassinate His Royal Highness the King of Jin.
Li Chengqian didn't even bother to put on his clothes, so he put on his shoes and put on his coat and ran over.
The moment King Jin saw Li Chengqian, he was finally no longer calm, and suddenly leaned over Li Chengqian's shoulder and cried.
Li Chengqian saw that King Jin was fine, so he relieved his heart, patted him on the back and comforted him softly: "Pheasant slave, don't worry, I will send someone to protect you here, and no one will hurt you!" And the father is about to come back, and when the father comes back, none of these people will be able to escape! ”
King Jin tried his best to calm himself down, but the sound outside just now was too scary, King Jin continued to cry helplessly, and said while crying: "Brother Huang, I'm so scared, can I sleep with you these days!" ”
Li Chengqian was also a little worried when he heard King Jin's words, and after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay, call my son together, let's sleep together." ”
King Jin wiped his tears at this time, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "Let the imperial brother worry, the imperial brother came here, and his forehead is full of sweat!" ”
Li Chengqian wiped the sweat on his head and didn't explain much, looked at King Jin's crying red eyes and said, "Wait a few more days, everything will be fine when my father comes back!" ”
King Jin nodded vigorously, looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Hmm! Just wait for my father to come back! ”
Under such strict conditions, there were still assassins who infiltrated the palace, and it was difficult for Li Chengqian not to get angry, so he ordered again to let everyone change shifts for a shorter time, as long as they held out until the army returned, everything would be restored.
Although everyone knows what is going on, they can't help but complain.
And the people of Runzhou City finally learned the news of Chang'an.
Yang Chen was still saddened by Ju Ruanyu's death, and heard that Li Chengqian had been assassinated one after another.
So Yang Chen found Li Siwen for the first time and wanted to discuss it with him.
Li Siwen was idle and had nothing to do, and he was very happy to hear that Yang Chen came to find him.
Yang Chen was not ambiguous, and when he came over, he asked directly: "Big brother, have you heard about the assassination of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince one after another?" Which force do you guess did it? ”
Li Siwen said while eating the fruit: "How do I know about this, anyway, it must not be done by King Wu's people, let's do an elimination method, King Wu didn't do it, the people of the Jiangnan Shi clan don't dare, the eldest grandson Chong is nowhere to be found, whose person do you say did it!" ”
Yang Chen listened to Li Siwen's analysis and knew what he meant, and at this moment he also said in a trance: "You mean that our people did it?" What was their intention in assassinating Li Chengqian? Let's not talk about whether you can kill him, even if you kill him, no one of us can take over Datang at this moment, and Li Shimin is not dead, what's the use of assassinating Li Chengqian! ”
Li Siwen shook his head and didn't know the answer, but he still said arrogantly: "I still have to ask you about this, I don't understand!" ”
Yang Chen rolled his eyes, and said to Li Siwen a little helplessly: "What if I knew what else I would come to you for?" Forget it, since you don't know, I'll go ask someone else! ”
Li Siwen saw that Yang Chen was about to leave when he got up, and hurriedly stood up and said, "What, this is going to leave!" I haven't said a word yet! What are you going to do! ”
Just when there was a sudden commotion outside the house, the two stopped arguing, but at the same time shifted their eyes to the direction of the door.
I saw a handsome boy walking in alone.
Li Siwen was a little stunned and said, "Who are you?" How did you get in? ”
The person who came didn't speak, but Yang Chen said with some uncertainty: "Cui Gongzi? ”
The person nodded and arched his hands with some excitement and said, "Contemptible Cui, I have seen Yang Chen's son, Li Siwen's son!" ”
Yang Chen looked at Li Siwen, does that mean that you invited this person?
Li Siwen also looked indifferent, and gave Yang Chen a look that I couldn't invite!
Yang Chen reluctantly spoke: "Who is Cui Gongzi looking for here?" Can I help you? ”
Cui Gongzi straightened up and looked at the two of them: "Cui is here to meet the two sons today." ”
Seeing Cui Gongzi's appearance, Yang Chen suddenly became interested.
The subordinates of Li Siwen's mansion also rushed over from outside at this moment, looked at Li Siwen and said, "Master, this person doesn't know where he came from, I'll drive him out!" ”
Li Siwen turned a face, waved his hand and said, "This is my guest, you go out quickly!" ”
Then the people hurriedly went out, leaving the three of them to sit down in the house.
Yang Chen was not polite, and after Cui Gongzi sat down, he immediately spoke: "Cui Gongzi still tell me what the purpose of this visit is!" ”
Cui Gongzi picked up the teacup and didn't drink it, and when he heard Yang Chen ask, he had to put down the teacup and look at Yang Chen and said: "It's really here to meet the two sons, Cui has heard the names of the two sons for a long time, but he has never had the opportunity to meet the two, and he happened to pass by Runzhou today, so he came to visit." ”
Yang Chen didn't believe it, and snorted coldly and said: "There are no more than three people who know the news about me in Runzhou, where did Cui Gongzi know about it!" ”
Cui Gongzi listened to Yang Chen's questioning, and didn't dare to say bluntly: "It was Zhao Yao who told me, no, I should have heard it from Zhao Yao's mouth!" ”
Yang Chen looked at Cui Gongzi's eyes and said, "You asked him, and he said it?" ”
Cui Gongzi also looked directly at Yang Chen and said, "Yes, I asked him and he said!" ”
Seeing that the two of them looked tense, Li Siwen hurriedly started a round and said, "Does Cui Gongzi know what happened in Chang'an recently?" Is there any mystery in this that we don't know, can you tell us about it! ”
Hearing Li Siwen's words, Cui Gongzi no longer stared at Yang Chen, but said a little helplessly: "Yes, what happened in Chang'an recently is too strange, isn't it?" I also want to ask Yang Chen's son! ”
Yang Chen was a little confused, this person came over to ask himself? Could it be that I missed some clues.
Seeing Yang Chen's thoughtful look, Li Siwen hurriedly said on the side: "I know everything he knows, Cui Gongzi might as well tell me how much he knows!" ”
Cui Gongzi squinted his eyes, as if he remembered something, and said: "Half of the people brought to the palace by King Wu are from my Jiangnan Shi clan, but he died without making a splash!" That's why I found Yang Gongzi and wanted an explanation! ”
Cui Gongzi no longer concealed his intentions, stared at Yang Chen and said fiercely.
Yang Chen was a little confused, looked at Li Siwen and then at Cui Gongzi before he said: "If I don't signal again, it is the first time that Cui Gongzi and I have met, and Cui Gongzi's subordinates are dead and come to me for an explanation?" Want to get it? ”
Cui Gongzi seemed to expect Yang Chen to say this, looked at Yang Chen and said: "Don't say that Zhao Yao is not your person, he swears that he came to cooperate with us on your behalf, who is you looking for this statement?" ”
Yang Chen was still a little confused, but he still didn't deny that Zhao Yao was his own person, but looked at Cui Gongzi with some curiosity and said, "Zhao Yao is my person, yes, but the person who cooperates with you to plot great things is King Wu!" King Wu and the people he brought with him are dead, is there something wrong with you coming to me to ask for calligraphy? ”
Cui Gongzi pursed his lips, looked at Yang Chen and said, "Don't pretend, isn't King Wu still your subordinate?" Otherwise, why would he do such a suicidal thing? ”
Yang Chen and Li Siwen were both confused by Cui Gongzi's words.
Li Siwen looked at Yang Chen with some astonishment and said, "King Wu has been taken under your command?" ”
Yang Chen was also a little stunned and said: "How can King Wu be my subordinate, Cui Gongzi said with a smile!" ”
Cui Gongzi didn't look like he was lying when he looked at Yang Chen, he said a little confusedly: "Are you really not involved in this matter?" So who is the beneficiary of King Wu's death? ”
Yang Chen also looked at Cui Gongzi with some puzzlement and said, "Why did you put your suspicious eyes on me?" I want to tell you a fact, even if Li Chengqian gets up every day and falls and gets stuck, and Li Shimin is here, no matter how much the beneficiary is, it won't be my turn, what are you people thinking! ”
Cui Gongzi was still a little puzzled and said: "Then who do you say is the person who assassinated Li Chengqian in Chang'an City recently?" We didn't send anyone over, King Wu also died, and now Changsun Chong is nowhere to be found, it can't be Gaochang and the Turks! ”
Speaking of this, Cui Gongzi was stunned, and Yang Chen also suddenly looked at Cui Gongzi and said: "Yes, there are also Gaochang and Turkic people, now that Ju Ruan Yucai has died, what kind of things will Gaochang's people do in order to avenge her, so it seems that the nearest assassin is likely to be Gaochang's people!" ”
Cui Gongzi still couldn't believe it and said: "How can those cowards in Gaochang dare to come to Datang to do things, this is impossible, it must be your talent!" ”
