Li Zhenxiao walked into the Heart Cultivation Hall with heavy steps, the gloom on his face was obvious, he sat down behind the bookcase, picked up the pen and began to write.

After writing it, he handed over the holy decree to Suo Meng: "Tell the world that Xiao Lingwei participated in the rebellion, and the crime deserves death, and the subjects of the world are ordered to be arrested with all their might, and those who provide effective clues will be rewarded, and those who are arrested will be rewarded, and those who are killed will be sealed as the marquis of ten thousand households." ”

Suo Meng took the holy decree and felt the weight in his hand, and he asked hesitantly: "Your Majesty, will it be a little inappropriate to treat the daughter of Emperor Daxing like this?" ”

Li Zhenxiao Tiger glared: "I am the emperor, the world is under my control, whoever dares to say something inappropriate, I will kill him." ”

Suo Meng was immediately silenced and went to the order.

This time, Li Zhenxiao did not arrest people quietly as before, but announced to the world with great fanfare, and gave Xiao Lingwei a charge of rebellion, and even did not have to go through the process of interrogation by the government, and directly offered a reward for people's heads.

As soon as the news came out, the capital was in an uproar.

Li Xuan's face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but clench his fists and hammer the table, blood flowing down his hands, frightening Pingfu.

"Master, you're bleeding."

Li Xuan stood up, avoided Pingfu's outstretched hand, and said angrily: "I thought that he would be jealous of Weiwei's identity when he publicized it, but I didn't expect him to be so frustrated, he actually slandered Weiwei for rebellion, and ordered the whole world to arrest Weiwei, it's really hateful..."

"Master, don't say that." Pingfu was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped him from continuing.

"It was my mistake, I hurt Weiwei..."Li Xuan clenched his fists, raised his feet and walked outside.

"Master, where are you going?"

......

Li Zhenxiao was very surprised when he saw Li Yong: "Why don't you lie down and rest well, and come here?" ”

After speaking, he glanced at Li Xuan, who was standing beside him, and rarely saw the two brothers come together to greet him.

Li Yong smiled slightly: "The imperial doctor said that always lying on the bed is not conducive to the recovery of the wound, let me go out for a walk occasionally, I thought that I hadn't come to my father to say goodbye for so long, so I made an appointment with the fourth brother today." ”

Li Zhenxiao was very relieved when he heard this, but the next moment, he couldn't laugh.

Because Li Xuan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, please go and arrest the thief Xiao Lingwei." ”

Li Zhenxiao paused for a moment, looked at Li Xuan, and saw that the expression on his face was very serious, not like a joke, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: he called himself a minister, he was asking for his life as a courtier, and he also called Xiao Lingwei a thief, I don't know if it was because he had already announced it to the world or because it was because he was in order to conform to his thoughts, he called it so.

But Li Zhenxiao still had a worry in his heart, that is, he was afraid that Li Xuan would take the opportunity to help Xiao Lingwei escape in the name of arrest.

So, after the initial shock, Li Zhenxiao muttered: "You are not in good health, just recuperate in the palace, I have already handed over this matter to Suo Meng." ”

Li Xuan said again: "Xiao Lingwei is Mr. Pei's closed disciple, and his intelligence is outstanding, which is beyond the ability of ordinary people to deal with. Moreover, although she was poisoned, her force should not be underestimated.

"We used to be brothers and sisters, and we have studied and lived together for many years, and the minister knows her thinking habits well, and can also analyze her whereabouts according to the clues she left behind.

"So, no one is more suitable to arrest Xiao Lingwei than me."

Li Zhenxiao hesitated.

At this time, Li Yong said: "Father, I think the fourth brother is right, he is the person who knows Xiao Lingwei best, and he has a greater chance of catching Xiao Lingwei than others." ”

Li Zhenxiao looked at it in surprise, in his impression, the two brothers have always had different opinions, but today they have united the front, which is really strange.

Li Yong straightened his back, calmly faced Li Zhenxiao's gaze, and remembered what happened before, and his heart couldn't help but surge.

At that time, he had just learned of what had happened in the morning, and he was terrified, and he hurriedly sent people to recover the gifts he had ordered to send to the Xiao Mansion. At this time, Li Xuan came.

"Brother should know about today's court meeting, right? I'm going to ask my father for orders to arrest Xiao Lingwei, if you help me speak and let me win this task, I won't compete with you for the position of prince. Li Xuan didn't say half a word of nonsense, and directly said the reason straight to the point.

Li Yong had no reason not to agree, so the two came with him.

Seeing that Li Zhenxiao didn't speak for a long time, Li Xuan decided to increase the weight: "Father, I know that there have been a lot of voices in the court asking you to make a prince early. You now only have two sons, my brother and me, and the son is not virtuous, but he also wants to fight for the position of the prince. ”

What did he say?

Li Yong looked at Li Xuan in disbelief, he wanted to compete for the position of prince? That's not what he said before he came. Li Yong immediately felt that he was being tricked by Li Xuan, and his face was extremely ugly.

Li Zhenxiao was also surprised, no one dared to say in front of the emperor that he wanted to be the crown prince, because since ancient times, the emperor has been very taboo for the princes to fight to the death for the position of prince. Although this phenomenon has never gone away, the semblance of peace is still maintained.

But Li Xuan dared to say this kind of thing, which just shows that he is telling the truth, and he dares to face his innermost desires.

He is very brave and honest, and he deserves to be his son of Li Zhenxiao.

At this time, Li Zhenxiao already believed what Li Xuan said in his heart, but he still had to test it: "Xiao Lingwei is your junior sister, you two childhood sweethearts, you have a good relationship, are you willing to arrest her and kill her?" ”

Finally came, Li Xuan said the reason he had thought of a long time ago: "I don't dare to deceive my father, I used to be slightly nice to Xiao Ling, just because she is the favored daughter of the Xiao family, and the most beloved granddaughter of General Yang, and Mr. Pei's favorite disciple, so I will do everything possible to get close to her and please her, so as to improve my status."

"That's why my father is impressed with me, isn't it?"

Li Zhenxiao was silent, it was true.

"Now Xiao Lingwei is of no use to me at all, why am I reluctant? My father taught me from a young age that I can do whatever it takes to achieve my goals, and that's what I do now. I will capture Xiao Lingwei to prove my ability to my father.

"If I can't catch Xiao Lingwei, I will withdraw from the competition for the prince, and from now on, I will honestly assist my brother and open up a prosperous world for my father." ”

These words were sincere, and Li Zhenxiao completely believed him: "Okay, this matter will be left to you with full responsibility, and I will send a few more people to help you." ”

In this way, Li Xuan successfully took over this task.

After walking out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Li Yong asked Li Xuan: "Why did you go back on your word?"

Li Xuan said lightly: "Brother has time to question me, it is better to pray that I fail." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"You... Vile. Li courageously clenched his fists, and a sharp pain suddenly came from his chest.

He clutched his chest and secretly swore in his heart: No, he must not let Li Xuan catch Xiao Lingwei and make meritorious contributions in front of his father...
