Chapter 81: Killing Himself by Biting His Tongue
Li Tai tore off the black scarf on the man's head, and suddenly blood gushed up.
That person was none other than Zhang Qiuhua.
"You? You dog minion! Something that betrays the Lord for glory! β
Zhang Qiuhua covered his face and said, "King Wei, I ......"
"What am I? Did the prince send you? β
If the assassin was someone else, he might have accepted it, but he didn't expect it to be him. The people around me who used to be.
"No, King Wei, it's me!"
"Yourself? I treated you well in the past, and you just climbed the high branches, and even harmed me for him. You! β
Maybe he was angry, and he "snapped" up and slapped him twice.
The good and evil of human nature are all presented at this moment.
Qin Qiong suddenly shouted: "Stop fighting, look! β
Zhang Qiuhua's lips were tightly closed, his face turned purple, and a stream of blood flowed down the corners of his mouth.
Li Tai asked Qin Qiong in surprise: "Master, what's wrong with him?" I didn't hit him either. β
Li Shimin touched his nose with his hand, sighed and said, "I bit my tongue and committed suicide, I ran out of breath." β
Li Tai was angry: "He did something sorry for people, and he still knows how to commit suicide?" I'm really angry, when he was in my house before, I was good to him, and he actually killed me for him, which is intolerable. β
"That's human nature. It's not a big deal, as long as you're okay. β
Li Tai seemed to remember something at this time, and asked him, "Master Qin, why are you here?" β
Qin Qiong sighed: "It's not that I don't worry about you? When you left my house that day, I was very uneasy in my heart, worried that you would suffer. Joe dressed up, followed you all the way, mentioned the post station, and ambushed in the room prepared for you, but I didn't expect it to happen. β
"Thank you, Master Qin, you are my reborn parents."
"Don't dare to be, the relationship between the Li family and me is too deep, how many people in the world envy you, the princes who were born in the emperor's family, don't you know that the troubles of being a prince are even worse than that of an ordinary person. I hope that the Qin brothers can coexist peacefully, but it always backfires. I don't know what you guys will get in the end when you brothers kill each other from generation to generation? β
Li Tai listened to it and thought to himself, if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own government, he is not in that position, so naturally he has no desire to fight.
Seeing Qin Qiong's sad face, Li Tai replied: "Where there are people, there will be struggles, this is no way, Master Qin is so good to me, if I ascend to the throne one day, I will definitely not fail you." β
Qin Qiong's face sank and said, "Why did King Wei say this? You don't think that sitting in the main hall of Tai Chi Palace is a winner in life. Flowers are not red for 100 days, and people are not good for 100 days. Emperor Gaozu is the best example. I advise you not to follow in the footsteps of your father. You know, there is no point in exchanging life and blood for the throne. Now that your danger has been lifted, Qin said goodbye. β
Li Tai still wanted to keep him, but he had long since disappeared.
Sure enough, it's a weirdo.
At this time, I heard the voice of Wei Zheng talking outside.
Just as he was about to open the door, he walked in, saw Zhang Qiuhua on the ground at a glance, and asked him:
"What's going on?"
Li Tai replied: "This person is completely to blame. Lord Wei, you may not have thought that this person turned out to be my former personal eunuch, he went to the East Palace by the prince, but now he came to kill me for the prince, fortunately I found out in time, he lost face and actually bit his tongue and committed suicide. β
Wei Zheng asked nervously, "Are you okay?" Are there any injuries? β
Li Tai asked unhappily, "Lord Wei, aren't I doing well?" What do you think about this? β
"What can I think? Are you sure he was sent by the crown prince to assassinate you? β
"Who else could he be? In fact, before we set off, I got the news that the prince would harm me on our way to Xidufu, but I never thought it would be him? This kind of person is really hateful. What's next? β
Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "I don't know either. His Royal Highness the King of Wei, when he was leaving, the emperor had an explanation, and he must ensure your safety, now that such a thing has happened, do we still want to move forward? What if you run into another Assassin? I don't have the kung fu myself, and I can't protect you, right? β
"How so? Doesn't Lord Wei have physiognomy? You could have predicted my father's visit to the former prince's mausoleum, couldn't you have predicted my fortune in the next few days? β
"Can that be the same? There are a lot of things that I pay attention to in physiognomy, and no matter how much I can do it, there are times when I can't. Don't say anything else in advance, this person's body should be buried quickly, right? It's not good if the people at the post station know about it. β
As he spoke, he was about to give orders, but was stopped by Li Tai: "Lord Wei, this person can't be dealt with here, I have to send him to Chang'an City for the emperor to see." β
"What are you doing? What do you mean by that? β
"I'm a big man, my life is threatened, is that all? The prince has to give me an explanation. β
Wei Zheng immediately understood what he meant, frowned and said, "Wei people, why do you bother? Even if you sue the crown prince, can you still shake his crown princeship? β
"Why? Lord Wei, I'm the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and I'm being bullied so casually? β
"There's no need to make a big move, I dare to say that even if the emperor knows, he won't change anything. Besides, the one who died was just a eunuch, and if you don't want to hide something, just repair a book and send it to the imperial court. β
"What if you can't stir up the waves?"
Wei Zheng was puzzled and asked, "What kind of waves do you want to stir up?" Do you want the emperor to depose the crown prince? King Wei, you are too naΓ―ve. I can tell you that this incident doesn't prove anything, because this Zhang Qiuhua used to be your person, even though he is now the prince's person, he has enough reasons to kill you. β
"What reason?"
"Maybe it's because you didn't treat him well before, maybe it's because you have a grudge with him and you don't know it, is it wrong for someone who has a relationship with you to know your whereabouts and wants to take revenge?"
Li Tai was annoyed by his analysis: "Master Wei, you are my teacher and my father-in-law, do you talk like this?" Why do I always speak for others? β
Wei Zheng spread out his hands, shrugged his shoulders and said, "King Wei, who am I not looking at?" Based on my years of experience and insight, I don't think this matter can be magnified indefinitely. β
"Give me a reason?"
Wei Zheng said: "Of course there is a reason. First of all, you are the king of Wei, with your current ability is not enough to compete with the crown prince, the most important thing is that Zhang Qiuhua is a eunuch, not a warrior, and he is powerless, so how can he be your opponent? β
When Li Tai heard this, there seemed to be some truth in this.
Hearing this, Wei Zheng continued: "In my opinion, Zhang Qiuhua is just an introduction, indicating that he is warning you, let you be more restrained, and don't provoke him, so you must make this matter a big thing small." β
