When Li Zhengshan returned to the mansion, he was already holding the lamp. After changing clothes, the family brought food, and Li Zhengshan went into the study alone after eating.

Li Zhengshan sat on the Taishi chair with his eyes closed, and his mind turned to the extreme:

"Who poisoned Your Majesty?"

"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, in the past few years, all the generals have made meritorious contributions, except for a few people, most of them have gathered in Dacheng City, lest there be another disaster of swords, in recent years, the implementation of reforms, want to weaken the wealthy family, most of the generals have sent the counties, the law of containment, but these people have a shallow foundation, and they are struggling in the counties, and the wealthy family will not make a move on Your Majesty at this time."

"The old thief of the Yang family? This old thief has always been smiling and thief-hearted, and Yang Shuxin is even more human-faced and snake-hearted, but when His Majesty was there, he was extremely gracious to the Yang family, and His Majesty lived for more than ten years, and the second prince may not have no chance, so impatient, and this guy has a different style of acting, but it is also inevitable to be suspicious. Now that the second prince has succeeded to the throne, the Yang family is soaring into the sky, and there is a lot of momentum, and this matter has to be guarded against. ”

"Wang Enru, this kid, doesn't take the old man in his eyes today, and the old man will write it down. Do you think you can be safe and sound by relying on Dingchenghou? As everyone knows, Dingcheng Hou is also a member of my Li family, although the old man has not been in court for a long time, but the old man has not been in the palace for a long time! Hum! ”

"Yuyang has a bad climate, few people and poor land, Li Jian, this kid took the initiative to run there, but it was also to avoid the disaster of killing, if Your Majesty had canonized the daughter of the Shi family one step earlier, there would not be such a situation today, and the war martyrs were also arranged, it can be regarded as a helper for this child, the world has only been peaceful for ten years, if there is a disaster of swords, it is also a hope for my Li family. However, don't be unwilling to lead the troops to attack Dacheng! ”

"Huang Tong, this kid is loyal, and His Majesty can't help but have a life-saving grace for him, but as a general of Weiwei, His Majesty was murdered, and his crime is inescapable, but if this kid is really moved, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and trouble among several others. I will send a message to him tomorrow, telling him not to go back and follow Li Jian in Yuyang. ”

"Han Zhen entered Beijing for some reason this time, His Majesty died suddenly, is Han Zhen suspicious? There should be no, Han Zhen has followed His Majesty for many years, and His Majesty is a friend of life and death, this time His Majesty's matter, Han Zhen did not take the opportunity to seize the power, did not say a word in the middle, and returned at night after the incident, when there was no suspicion, but I don't know what the purpose of entering Beijing this time is. ”

"If you want to talk about opportunities, Shang Honghai has the greatest opportunity, he is Your Majesty's personal eunuch, and he has the best chance to get close to Your Majesty, but what is the motive? This pickled goods has no children and no daughters, no worries, guards His Majesty all day long, and has never left the palace to buy a family business, when Chu Bing drove a knife on his neck, he never betrayed His Majesty, and today he is even more prominent and highly respected, if it is really him, it really shouldn't be. ”

"Song Rentou, Song Rentou, you are really a head-giveaway, you were a head-giving general when you were in the war, and now your Majesty has been killed, as a general of Tingwei, you take two hundred tigers to protect your Majesty day and night, that year, the Huadian let you form a circle, you didn't even notice it, you are really a head-giveaway, this time you have to shed your skin if you don't die."

Li Zhengshan closed his eyes and recuperated, his mind kept calculating, and when he heard the sound of the second watch, he called the house slaves, prepared a small car, and quietly went to the Dingcheng Hou Mansion.

The house slave led Li Zhengshan into the study, but saw Li Chengqian boiling water and making tea around the stove.

"Master Hou" Li Zhengshan bowed and saluted.

"Uncle clan doesn't have to be polite", Li Chengqian hurriedly stretched out his hand to help.

"You don't know, I don't pay attention to the government, I don't read the military newspapers, we just chat about some flowers and plants, you used to come during the day, why did you come here at such a time today?" Li Chengqian said casually.

Li Zhengshan's heart was tight, and he couldn't figure out Li Chengqian's routine, although he was Li Chengqian's uncle, but in terms of military achievements and prestige, this junior overshadowed the entire Dacheng general, brave and invincible, resourceful, this eight characters only belonged to the Hou Ye in front of him, if it weren't for Li Chengqian's self-resignation and self-trapped Hou Mansion, it would never be possible for Li Zhengshan to hold the post of Tai Lieutenant.

"Master Hou, Your Majesty was killed in such a big event, although the second prince ascended the throne today, but the murderer has no clues, the old man is anxious and sleepless, so he came to ask Lord Hou for advice." Although Li Zhengshan wants to talk about other things, he still tries Li Chengqian's attitude first with the matter of His Majesty's murder.

"Although I don't care about state affairs, but my brother's murder is a family matter, and I will definitely find out! I don't know if Uncle Clan has any clues? ”

"I thought about it for a while, the people around Your Majesty are all henchmen, and it is really difficult to deduce who the murderer is" Li Zhengshan secretly slandered himself, and if he was really Dingchenghou, he spoke without leakage.

"Except for Shang Honghai, are all the eunuchs around His Majesty still there?"

"Marquis Shang Honghai also understands that he is absolutely impossible, but it is not excluded that his minions are such vicious people. Tingwei's two hundred tiger troops and Song Rentou were also imprisoned in the Weiwei camp, and they didn't know what to do? ”

"My uncle," Li Chengqian sighed. But said that this Song Rentou is the younger brother of the current Empress Dowager, Li Chengqian's uncle, never won a war, pressed grain and grass has never succeeded, but never died in a hundred battles, like a plague god possessed, but the auspicious star shines, and finally became a flag general, every time there is a big war, he will carry a big sword, and the army is rampant, but he is unharmed, after Li Chengyou ascended the throne, under the persuasion of the Empress Dowager, thinking that there is no danger in the palace, he let Song Rentou be the general of the court, unify the thousand tiger army, and protect the palace.

"General Tingwei can no longer be a general, the two hundred tiger soldiers guarding the Nianhua Palace will be strictly examined, if there is a murderer, I will personally behead him, if there is no clue, these two hundred people will be assigned to Jiujiang, and they will be guilty of meritorious service."

"Huang Tong followed the eldest prince to Yuyang, I'm afraid he won't come back, now Wei Wei Tingwei is leaderless, it is a matter of the safety of the new emperor, I don't know who the Hou Ye thinks can do it?"

Li Chengqian looked up at Li Zhengshan and said, "Is there a candidate for the clan uncle?" ”

"I'm old and frail, and I haven't been to the court for a long time, and now I can't tell who is in the military generals."

Li Chengqian laughed twice and said, "Where is my brother Li Yong now?"

"Hou Ye still remembers my dog, if he knows, he must be very happy, this kid has been learning from Hou Ye since he was a child, but how can Hou Ye have half a point of bearing. Three years ago, I ran out alone, but later I learned that I had gone to Changsha County, fought with some Nanban all day, accumulated some military merits, and was now a military marquis under Wei Changsheng. Li Zhengshan has three sons and two daughters, and Li Yong is Li Zhengshan's youngest son.

"To be a military marquis in three years, that is also after a hundred battles, a thousand people, at such an age, it is really good, you can call him back, I think it is good to be a court lieutenant general."

"Then thank you for your appreciation." Li Zhengshan was overjoyed in his heart, and he didn't shirk it, and said in response. "I don't know who General Wei Wei can send? I'm afraid that Yang Zhengtai will fight for this position. ”

"Wei Wei is a heavy army in the palace, the Yang family doesn't want to pay it back, if you dare to have this thought, then Yang Laosan is afraid that the three captains of Sanchuan don't want to do it." Hearing Li Zhengshan's question, Li Chengqian said indignantly. The Yang Laosan in Li Chengqian's mouth is the son of Yang Zhengtai, Yang Yuchao, the current governor of Sanchuan County.

"I have secretly ordered Xing Zheng to come from Shangjun in a few days, and the three thousand Praetorian Guards must be in the hands of my Li family!" Li Chengqian immediately said.

"If it's Xing Zheng, then rest assured, General Xing has always been the number one general under Hou Ye, loyal and brave, and the old man is relieved."

"Now that Your Majesty's affairs have not yet been announced to the world, tomorrow all the messengers will set off one after another, and soon this matter will be known to the whole world, the clan uncle must prepare early, the lieutenant army must always be vigilant, and the Quartet will send more secret agents to prevent right and wrong."

"It should be so." Li Zhengshan is colorful.

But hearing the sound of the third watch, Li Zhengshan got up to say goodbye to Li Chengqian, stepped into the black carriage, and went incognito.

In the distance, another carriage slowly approached.
