Seeing Li Linfu so entangled, Li Longji was irritable, wanted to get angry, and tried his best to hold back.

Li Linfu, an old thing, was crying and making trouble early in the morning, and directly accused the 21st of appearing at the scene of the assassination.

is also insinuating suspicion about himself and the prince, which is too much.

If it weren't for Li Linfu's usual words and deeds, which were proper and reliable, and for Li Linfu's beloved son Li Jaw, who was about to die, Li Longji would definitely be mad.

Li Heng peeked at Li Longji, and saw that his father did not hold him accountable, knowing that what he said was in line with Li Longji's intentions, Li Heng also seemed to understand what his father liked to hear.

Li Heng was secretly happy in his heart, and finally found a little confidence to be a prince. The current understanding is that no matter what bad things are done, they will not admit to death.

As for Li Linfu, the old thief, it's good that his son is dead, he deserves it, I haven't designed them yet, someone will help me, happy.

Li Heng looked aggrieved, but he actually knelt on the ground, gloating in his heart, extremely smooth.

Li Longji leaned back on the dragon chair and said lightly: "Since that's the case, let's wait." He closed his eyes and rested himself.

The hall was quiet again, but the atmosphere was still tense.

After about a cup of tea, I heard Gao Lishi shouting at the door of the main hall: "The twenty-first prince Li Mu is here." ”

Li Longji opened his eyes and said one word lazily: "Xuan." ”

Li Mu came in, gave a big salute to Li Longji, and then saluted the crown prince Li Heng, and finally, knelt on the other side of Li Linfu.

Li Mu looked at Li Linfu and asked, "Li Xiang, fortunately, I can see Li Xiang here, it's really not easy, what's wrong with Li Xiang?" Red eyes, last night, stayed up late again? ”

Li Linfu glanced at Li Mu, snorted coldly, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Twenty-first Prince, may I ask, are you knowingly asking, watching the old man's jokes, or do you really not know?" ”

Li Mu was stunned, hurriedly raised his head, and looked at Li Longji, who frowned and didn't want to speak.

Li Mu asked, "Li Xiang, why do you say this, what's wrong with you?" Am I doing something wrong? No? In the past two days, in accordance with my father's will, I have been cooperating with the officials of the Taishi Bureau to develop lightning rods? ”

Li Mu was really confused, Gao Lishi came forward to look for him, it turned out that Li Linfu was haunted.

Li Linfu was a little confused and asked, "You really don't know anything, or are you pretending to be confused?" ”

Li Mu said in surprise: "Li Xiang, what do I know?" What the hell is going on? You're not asking me for a thousand taels of silver, are you? I said that I borrowed it, and I used it all, but now I don't have any money to pay you back? ”

Li Linfu heard the black line on his face, and he was muttering in his heart, this twenty-one is not like a treacherous person.

Li Linfu asked: "Your Royal Highness, did Your Highness pass by Chang'an Avenue last night?" ”

Li Mu suddenly realized and said: "Oh, Li Xiang, you are talking about last night, yes, I went out of the city with Mr. Fu from the Taishi Bureau in the afternoon, and I came back late,"

Li Linfu straightened up, looked at Li Mu and asked, "So, Your Highness saw that assassination?" Have you seen those Assassins? ”

Li Mu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I saw the assassination, but I was a hundred steps away, and I was stupid at that time, where did I dare to approach, Li Xiang, who is the assassin?" Who was killed? ”

Li Mu was telling the truth, Li Mu already knew who the assassin was, as for why he was assassinated and who he killed, Li Mu really didn't know.

After spending one night with Aunt Gongsun, Li Mu didn't dare to ask at all.

Li Linfu didn't answer, his face was hard to see distorted.

Li Mu said to himself: "Li Xiang doesn't say it, let me guess, those assassins are strong in martial arts, why are they assassinated, either the assassins are corrupt officials, or the assassins and those assassins, police and bandits, the spoils are unevenly divided, and there is infighting, Li Xiang, do you say my analysis is right?" ”

Li Linfu's face turned blue with anger, and he coughed twice, only to spurt blood.

Li Heng hurriedly stopped: "Brother Mu, don't talk nonsense, what do you mean by the police and bandit family?" What kind of corrupt officials, you didn't see it clearly, you opened your mouth, and you didn't apologize to Li Xiang? ”

Li Mu sighed, shocked, and asked, "Could it be that the assassin has something to do with Li Xiang?" No, those assassins are clearly people from the rivers and lakes, oops, aren't they the people who were assassinated, Li Xiang knows? ”

After Li Mu finished speaking, he looked up at Li Longji, Li Longji's mood at the moment was a little fluttering, originally Li Linfu pointed out that Li Mu appeared at the scene of the assassination, and Li Longji was very passive.

But Li Mu's few words, which were relaxed and playful, stabbed Li Linfu's sore spot, and Li Longji liked this kind of language very much.

Datang is from my Li family, you Li Linfu, bastard, dare to question my father and son's black hand to you? Let me explain it to you? Arrogant you?

Li Longji is not angry, he takes care of the face of the monarch and ministers, but Li Mu's statement is to the point, Li Linfu, do you refute it?

Li Longji was happy in his heart, on the face, he was not impatient or impatient, he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, this twenty-one, punched the master to death, which is very in line with Li Longji's temper.

Li Linfu was angry and hateful in his heart, but he couldn't attack yet.

Li Linfu snorted coldly: "Your Royal Highness the Twenty-first Prince, what do you mean by your cold words, according to people familiar with the matter, His Royal Highness has traveled from Chang'an Avenue to Hengjie 5th Road, and the passage is unimpeded. ”

Li Mu basically understood, Li Linfu was targeting himself, it seems that last night's incident touched Li Linfu's interests, and Zuo Li of the guard battalion helped him, he must have fallen behind, Li Mu couldn't let Zuo Li give him a black pot.

Li Mu said: "Yes, I am on a business trip for the Taishi Bureau, and I am on the will of my father, so I am a little arrogant to the generals of the guard battalion, and I ordered them to send me back to Hengjie Wulu, is this wrong?" ”

The guard battalion is directly under the management of Li Longji, and no matter how unhappy Li Linfu is, he doesn't dare to say that the guard battalion is not.

Li Linfu felt that he was originally reprimanding the twenty-first prince, recovering a little of his face, and letting Li Longji give himself an explanation.

Unexpectedly, being a seemingly simple twenty-one, all kinds of jokes, made it difficult for me to step down.

Li Linfu thought to himself for a while, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Twenty-first Prince, do you know who was stabbed on Chang'an Avenue last night?" You really didn't see the Assassin clearly? ”

Li Mu said: "Li Xiang, I really didn't see the assassin clearly, and I don't know who was stabbed, but according to common sense, there is a common saying, although it is ugly, the truth is good." ”

Li Linfu asked, "Please, what are the words?" ”

Li Mu said: "This proverb is that flies don't bite seamless eggs, assassins killing people are rampant and should be punished severely, at the same time, why don't we look at the problem the other way, why assassinate?" What did the assassin do, and what should have been killed? ”

Li Linfu was speechless, panting loudly.

Li Longji listened very carefully, these two sentences were very powerful, and Li Longji stood up excitedly.

"Yes, yes, the assassin is hateful, but why did he assassinate the second son, Lord Li, is it that the second son was deceived by that Ji Ze, it is clearly these bastard things, deceiving the superiors and subordinates, doing a lot of evil, and letting the second son carry it, right?"

Li Longji's questioning, along the direction of Li Mu, was more specific and sharp.

Li Linfu completely collapsed, at this time, Li Linfu regretted it, he was paralyzed by pain and thinking, and he naively wanted to seek justice with His Majesty the Emperor and a group of princes, which was simply stupid.

Li Longji will inevitably protect his cubs, he is asking for hardships and being humiliated.

Li Linfu was stunned, and was hit by Li Mu and Li Longji, and almost fainted on the spot.

At this time, Li Heng seized the opportunity and said: "Brother Mu, don't apologize to Li Xiang soon, now I understand, last night's assassination, Li Xiang's second son Li Jaw, was stabbed in the back, life and death are uncertain, Li Xiang is the pillar of the country, how can he withstand such a blow?" ”

"Huh? Your Royal Highness the Prince, are you telling the truth? Li Xiang's second son was stabbed? Oh, I'll just say, the second son has a good character and has always been our good big brother, Li Xiang, don't worry, this matter, it must be the second son who was involved by the wicked, and the father will definitely give Li Xiang justice. ”

After Li Mu finished speaking, he kowtowed to Li Longji and looked at Li Longji expectantly.

The father and son, unconsciously, staged a double reed, no, it was a triple reed, and directly put Li Linfu into it.

Li Linfu was in a dilemma, he was miserable, he immediately got up, and after confessing to Li Longji, he was about to leave.

Li Longji said: "Lord Li, don't worry, I will definitely order all departments to investigate the matter of the second son, and return the second son's innocence, you can go back, you must save the second son, and I will send someone to visit later." ”

When Li Linfu left the main hall, it was like being struck by lightning, and his whole person was like a piece of paper, fluctuating.
