Ten days later, the early dynasty was made in the Jinluan Hall of Chang'an City.

Li Chengqian stared at the officials below expressionlessly, wondering what else they wanted to make trouble, but he didn't expect a chaotic sound to come outside, and a sentry ran up to the hall panting and said: "His Royal Highness Prince Qiqi, the border is urgent, and the Turks and Gaochang have gathered a large number of soldiers and horses outside Yizhou, and I don't know what to do!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengqian was also stunned, looked at the rest of the officials, and saw that their expressions had not changed much, and he knew in his heart that this matter must have something to do with them.

After Li Chengqian stabilized his mind, he looked at the sentry below and said, "If you talk carefully, how could Gaochang and the Turks suddenly attack!" There must be some other reason! ”

This sentry was not the person arranged by Changsun Chong, I saw him stand up and look at Li Chengqian and said: "It's His Royal Highness the Prince, a few days ago, a caravan in Gaochang suddenly changed to the official road of Yizhou, and the Turkic caravan also happened to pass by the official road, and the people of the two teams didn't know why they quarreled, and then they actually alarmed the troops of the Shuangfang country, and now they are facing each other outside Yizhou!" ”

Li Chengqian thought for a while, looked at the sentry and said: "Pass the order, let the nearest barracks outside Yizhou be ready to meet the enemy, and Yizhou is always keeping an eye on their situation, let's ignore them, and wait for the return of my father!" ”

Li Chengqian actually decided to hold his troops still, which made the officials present a little surprised, in their opinion, Li Chengqian is an extremely belligerent person, who was stubbornly defended in Jingzhou before, how can he bear it now, they sent troops in my Datang territory!

After the officials below looked at each other, they opened their mouths and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, the minister thinks that it is a provocation for the Gaochang Turks to send troops into the territory of our Tang Dynasty, why don't you send troops over to drive them away, so as to promote the prestige of our Tang Dynasty!" ”

The rest of the people naturally responded and said: "Yes, these vassal states are not excessive!" ”

"That's it! They don't dare to make a mistake! ”

"That's right, you have to convince them!"

Li Chengqian looked at the crowd and knew that their purpose was to let himself send troops to fight, thinking of this, Li Chengqian shook his head a little helplessly and said, "Are you guys stupid?" Do you really think that Lone can be deceived by you in a few words? This matter ends here, if Gaochang and the Turks dare to attack Yizhou City, then I will definitely make them pay the price of blood! ”

Saying that, Li Chengqian turned around and left, leaving the officials with ugly faces, looking at each other, Tang Jian also said helplessly at this time: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't eat soft and hard, let's play our own games, why bother thinking about playing tricks on him!" ”

The official on the side said arrogantly: "He can't see the situation clearly, now Chang'an City is full of our people, those who are neutral towards him are locked up in their own houses, as long as the rumors ferment again, why can he sit in this position safely!" ”

Li Chengqian, who returned to the side hall, was drinking tea angrily, and it didn't take long for Brother Liang to come back from outside in a hurry, and after seeing Li Chengqian, Brother Liang shouted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, something is wrong!" ”

Li Chengqian saw that Brother Liang's face was not good-looking, he only felt a burst in his heart, and said in a trembling voice: "What's wrong?" ”

Brother Liang hurriedly said: "I went to see the tomb of the heart this morning, it has been dug up, and the coffin inside does not know where to move!" ”

Li Chengqian first breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt helpless for a while, looked at Brother Liang and said: "Where else can I go, they must have moved to the imperial tomb, I can't figure it out, why are all the officials in Chang'an now going to help Changsun Chong and King Wu?" Help them find a way to frame me, if they are directly subordinate to me, they will be reused naturally when I ascend the throne! ”

Seeing Li Chengqian's helpless look, Brother Liang suddenly thought of something, looked at him and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the sentence you just said reminded me of what I said when I was chatting with Brother Yang Chen in the past!" ”

When Li Chengqian heard Yang Chen's name, his eyes were shocked, and then he turned his head to look at Brother Liang and said, "You said, what did Yang Chen say to you!" ”

Brother Liang thought for a while and then looked at Li Chengqian and said: "That's the case, at that time, the two of us were discussing the situation between King Wei and King Wu and you, and I also asked him, why don't those officials help you, but try to make a detour and help King Wei and King Wu?" ”

Speaking of this, Brother Liang swallowed his saliva and continued: "Brother Yang Chen said, because you were cultivated by the emperor, you will inherit the emperor's will, which is equivalent to another emperor continuing to rule the country, which means that they are loyal to the emperor now and you in the future, it makes no difference." ”

Li Chengqian listened to Brother Liang's words, only felt that his eyes lit up, looked at him and said, "Is there anything wrong with this?" They are still important ministers of the court, and I will not depose them! ”

Brother Liang ignored him, but continued his words and said: "But everyone wants to go further, if they can help King Wei or King Wu ascend the throne, they must have done a lot of unsightly things secretly, then they will become their henchmen, and their official positions will be elevated!" ”

Speaking of this, Brother Liang looked at Li Chengqian's face, and saw that he was not displeased, so he continued: "And the most important thing is that if their allegiance to the King of Wei and King Wu is fruitless, as long as there is no substantial evidence or handle caught by you, then when you ascend the throne, you will not take them under the knife, which will leave everyone with a jealous and stingy image." ”

Li Chengqian took a deep breath, looked at the clear sky outside and said, "Call them to go to the city, I want to go out of the palace to see a doctor!" ”

This time, Li Chengqian went out with a magnificent momentum, and all the soldiers of the prince's mansion followed behind him, visiting all the officials who were on leave at home, even if their people were not allowed to enter, they forcibly entered the mansion, and even demolished several gates, and the most miserable was the gate of Changsun's house.

Li Chengqian seemed to be intentional or unintentional, but he didn't let his subordinates knock on the door, so he took the siege stake to open the gate of the eldest grandson's house, and he also successfully met the eldest grandson Wuji, who was seriously ill at home.

The eldest grandson Wuji's face was pale, and he seemed to be really very sick, while Li Chengqian sent the best herbs, and asked with some concern: "Uncle, what's wrong?" I asked all the people in your house, and they said they didn't know? Do you want to go to the palace and ask the imperial doctor to take a look! ”

After saying this, the rest of the people didn't speak, and carried the eldest grandson Wuji outside.

Using this method, Li Chengqian moved more than a dozen important ministers of the imperial court to the palace, and for a time there were various rumors inside and outside the palace.

The first person to appear in front of Li Chengqian was none other than Concubine Yang, who had lived in the deep palace for a long time, and I saw her looking at Li Chengqian with a sad face and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are you doing, why are you still tying up all the officials to the palace!" How do you let the court and the outside look at you like this! ”

When Li Chengqian saw Concubine Yang coming, he convicted himself of kidnapping important officials of the imperial court, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "Concubine Yang's words are wrong, I didn't kidnap them, I saw that no one cared about them at home, so I took them to the palace and waited for the imperial doctor to come and treat them!" ”

Concubine Yang naturally wouldn't let Li Chengqian go like this, but she still said aggressively: "Help people heal? It's good to send the imperial doctor over, why slam the door and carry people again, if it's just an ordinary official, it's easy to say, do you know who you brought in today? Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, don't you know what kind of virtue their son is? Now Fang Yiai and the eldest grandson Yan are blocked outside the palace to ask for an explanation! The children of the rest of the officials are also crying outside following their pace, what do you let the people think of you! ”

Concubine Yang seemed to be thinking about Li Chengqian, but she was thinking about it, and her meaning was clear, so that Li Chengqian could quickly put the person back.

But Li Chengqian naturally refused, even if he let the person go back now, then the rumors against him outside would not stop there, but fortunately, Li Chengqian had already taken a countermeasure, and after looking at the imperial doctor who was diagnosing and treating, Li Chengqian was relieved.

He strode outside, and said as he went, "Let me, the eldest son in the world, meet these sons who have come to ask for an explanation, I want to see what they want!" ”

Li Chengqian's appearance made Concubine Yang unexpected, in her opinion, Li Chengqian should be close to madness at this time, why does it seem to her that Li Chengqian's face is now calm, and Li Chengqian seems to have the momentum she once saw in Li Shimin.

Cheng Chumo led a team of men and horses to keep up with Li Chengqian's pace, and Yu Chi Baolin, who was left, glanced at Concubine Yang, and then came to the imperial doctor's side and said: "Imperial Doctor Liu, what kind of disease do these old men have, why are they all so pale, can't they be going to die!" ”

Imperial Doctor Liu also felt funny when he heard Yu Chi Baolin's words, but he still explained to Yu Chi Baolin: "These people are poisoned, and this poison is still a very magical kind, this poison has no harm to the human body, it will only make people forced to fall asleep, and they will not feel anything after waking up except for hunger, and if they are used properly, it will have the effect of prolonging life!" ”

As soon as Imperial Doctor Liu's words came out, Yu Chi Baolin's eyes widened on the side, and he looked at Imperial Doctor Liu and said, "Can you cooperate with this medicine?" Can you give me the whole two, I want to taste what it tastes like! ”

Imperial Doctor Liu only felt amused when he saw Yu Chi Baolin's eyes glowing, but he still said honestly: "The herbs needed for this medicine are very precious, and as long as the dosage of the medicine is insufficient or the heat is not right, it is really poison, and it is the kind that can never survive after eating, the old man does not have the ability to refin!" ”

After hearing this, Yu Chi Baolin nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, besides, I can't use tonic medicine to nourish my body bones!" ”
