Chapter 96: Transactions Before Death

Houfu

The news that Li Xiang was coming had already been spread in advance, but there was a steward standing at the door, and not even a young master had come out, according to Li Xiang's current status, even if Hou Junji came out in person, it would be reasonable.

If it were normal times, Li Xiang would definitely be looking for trouble at the door, but today is a matter of life and death, and we don't have the kung fu to be hypocritical, and now we have to solve this matter first, not to mention that Hou Junji, an old fox, is not easy to mess with, if he can't hold it, it will be a fatal thing for the entire East Palace.

"The old man is ill and can't go out to greet him, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive him."

Hou Junji saw Li Xiang coming in from outside, with a little pride on his face, the old man didn't go out to greet you, didn't you come in honestly?

If it had been before, Li Xiang would definitely talk to him about this matter, but now Li Xiang no longer has such thoughts, and there is no need for us to go around in circles, since you sent someone to kill Zaterk, then you must know some things.

"Save time and let people step down."

Li Xiang found a place to sit down by himself.

"Is Your Highness also in such a hurry?"

Hou Junji is not in a hurry, in his opinion, no one in the Manchu Mansion can live, this matter is a crime of bullying the monarch, but it is worth it for Hou Junji to be able to pull people like Li Xiang into the water.

"Of course I'm in a hurry, we are all understanding people, open the skylight and say bright things, if you are not afraid of these things getting out, then I will open my mouth directly, but there are some things you have to scruple about."

After Li Xiang finished speaking, he put the strip in front of Hou Junji, and when he saw the words on it, Hou Junji's face changed greatly.

"This rebel."

Of course, Li Xiang knew that Hou Junji was scolding the crown princess, because Hou Junji had already recognized the handwriting on it, which was the handwriting of his own daughter.

"Get out of here, and my order, anyone who dares to approach ten zhang will be killed with a cane!"

Seeing the words Suzaku Street, Hou Junji already understood what was going on, if he continued to handle it, then the whole thing might be out of control.

"You don't have to talk about her, you are so nervous for your son, she has to be nervous for her son, let's make a deal, right?"

Li Xiang leaned into Hou Junji, but he was also afraid that the wall would have ears.

"You've killed Zaterk for a hundred, and what deal do you have to make with me?"

Hou Junji said slyly, it is indeed as he said, if Zaterk is killed, this matter may not come out first, but the news has already spread, if Li Xiang kills Zaterke, it means that he has something to do with this matter, and he wants to cover it up!

"Then why don't I transport it to the gate of your house, and you go out and slash him with your own hands?"

Li Xiang was reluctant to say these useless nonsense, but Hou Junji had always been like this bear, and he also made Li Xiang angry.

"What do you want?"

Seeing Li Xiang's angry face, if it is really broken, Hou Junji will not be able to take advantage of it, the reason why he is sitting here is because there is an illegitimate child outside, don't worry about his Hou family being wiped out, but now that he has been betrayed by his own daughter, Hou Junji can only endure anger and talk to Li Xiang.

"You take the matter yourself, all the people who knew about this matter back then got rid of them, I don't want this matter to have anything to do with the East Palace."

Li Xiang put forward his own idea, but it ushered in a burst of laughter from Hou Junji.

"You're thinking too simply, even if I do what you say, then do you really think the emperor is a fool? Can he believe that Donggong has nothing to do with me? ”

Hou Junji said disdainfully, from last night to now, the news must have been spread, if the guess is right, the emperor must have learned the news as soon as possible, but the emperor does not have any will now, which is a bit intriguing.

"You can't do it, can you? If you do, I guarantee that your son will continue to grow up, but if you don't, then your family will be gone. ”

No matter what era it is, men attach great importance to their offspring, and the reason why Hou Junji raised this illegitimate child outside the house is also to prepare for this day, in fact, not only him, many dignitaries and nobles put their eggs in multiple baskets, and they are afraid of being wiped out.

"What if I want to die and break the net?"

Hou Junji sneered and said, if it were someone else, maybe Hou Junji would agree, after all, his whole family is now a dead rider, and it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune if he can save a branch.

But Li Xiang has always been at odds with Hou Junji, and Hou Junji can't wait to break Li Xiang to pieces, let alone cooperate with him.

"Then I can only kill you first, even if he is the emperor who blames me, but with your current status, do you think the emperor will avenge you?"

Li Xiang's eyes were already showing a chill, this was also the last step, what the result would be when the time came, Li Xiang himself didn't dare to think about it.

"Courageous, it's ridiculous that you didn't come out of my daughter's belly, if my grandson had half of you, maybe it wouldn't be such a result, never give up until the last moment, you have the ability to achieve great things."

When Hou Junji said this, Li Xiang's heart was also a little uncomfortable, after all, this is a person who has contributed to the Tang Dynasty, and now it is also a hero.

"If this matter is done well, the crown princess will be demoted to a commoner another day, she should take good care of her brother-in-law, after all, your Hou family is the only seedling, I swear to the sky, I will take care of everything I can, and never let them have an accident, provided that they don't look for my business."

Li Xiang knew that Hou Junji was not a reliable person, and he had to explain some things to him clearly, as long as he had concerns in his heart, then this matter could be considered complete.

"There is food, drink, room and clothing, just be an ordinary person, pursue fame and fortune for half a lifetime, and finally the whole family will behead, I will write a letter to my daughter, you take it back, you have to keep the throne of Li Ju, he will ascend the throne and become the emperor one day, if he does not rebel, you will leave his life."

Hou Junji is not stupid, if his grandson's throne is kept, even if his daughter is just a common man in the future, his daughter and youngest son will be taken care of.

"A good man with three gangs, I also need someone to help me support, I still say the same thing, as long as they don't look for my business, I will try my best to protect the throne."

After even coaxing, Hou Junji finally gave in, although he could not satisfy the emperor, but at least there would be no evidence on the surface, and then Li Xiang had to gamble a game, go to Li Shimin to gamble a game......
