The prison of the Criminal Department.

Fang Yuan saw Li Jing.

Li Jing was obviously a little surprised when he saw Fang Yuan.

Although he only came in last night, he felt that the emperor would not let people visit him.

But I didn't expect that someone still came to visit the prison, and it was Fang Yuan, who was not in Chang'an City.

"General Li Jing, I really didn't expect us to meet in such a way."

Fang Yuan said softly.

The jailer on the side was very knowledgeable and brought a stool for Fang Yuan.

After bringing Fang Yuan a stool, the jailer left without leaving to disturb him.

"Let King Zhou see and laugh."

Li Jing got up and saluted Fang Yuan.

After seeing Fang Yuan sit down, he sat down with him, but he was sitting on the ground.

"I came from the palace, and I met the emperor before I came."

"Li Dejian asked me to save you, but I can't seem to do anything."

Fang Yuan said frankly.

This is Li Dejian's request, and it is also Fang Yuan's favor.

Li Jing helped him become king before, and he owed Li Jing a great favor.

This time it didn't work, but he also made a statement, which can be regarded as telling Li Jing that he is a person who keeps his promises.

"King Xie Zhou."

"My unsuccessful son can't do things, don't take it to heart."

"I'm fine, the emperor won't do anything to me, I'll go out in a few days."

Li Jing arched his hand and expressed his gratitude.

"In that case, then I'm relieved."

"If I'm okay, then I'll leave first."

Fang Yuan got what he wanted to know, and he prepared to leave.

"Wait, I also have one thing to ask King Zhou for help."

Li Jing stopped Fang Yuan, who was about to get up.

"General Li Jing, please speak!"

Fang Yuan gestured.

"You come closer."

Li Jing beckoned to Fang Yuan.

Move forward and sit on the very side.

Fang Yuan looked at Li Jing, his brows furrowed slightly, but he still moved forward.

"I have convinced most generals that foreign wars."

"But today's incident is obviously a warning that the emperor is unwilling to give me war."

"But I still want to go to war, I want you to create this opportunity for me, as long as you help me, I will help you to be crowned king."

Li Jing lowered his voice and said in a deep voice.

"General Li Jing, you are embarrassing me, how can this matter help you?"

Fang Yuan's brows furrowed deeper and said.

He didn't expect Li Jing to be so obsessed with the king.

"You can, you can help me create the illusion that the Western Turks are attacking my border pass."

Li Jing said in a deep voice.

Datang now has no reason to go to war with the outside world, so make contradictions.

It's easy to want war, it depends on whether you really want war.

"General Li Jing, isn't this bad?"

"Moreover, even if there is a war, it is not necessarily you who go to war."

Fang Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice.

This method is not impossible, but Fang Yuan doesn't like it very much.

It's not that he has compassion for the Western Turks, but he feels that Li Jingmo is stunned.

As the military god of the Tang Dynasty, it is somewhat inappropriate to create a war for his own selfish desires.

"His Royal Highness King Zhou thinks I'm stunned?"

"But has His Royal Highness King Zhou ever thought that I am already old, and every time I miss a period of time, my chances of victory will be smaller."

Li Jing said in a deep voice.

While your activities are still sensitive, you can have a good fight.

Later, I wanted to go on the expedition, but I was too old to go on the expedition.

Moreover, the matter of sealing the king should naturally be done as soon as possible, otherwise you can enjoy the benefits of being crowned for a few years?

Looking at Fang Yuan now, he has been sealed to Lingnan, and he will definitely not be able to sort out Lingnan without three or five years.

If he is also sealed to other places, then it will take another three or five years to tidy up the fief, and I don't know if there is still that life.

"Yes, there is this idea."

"General Li Jing, can you slow down?"

"When it comes to sealing the king, forcing it will only hurt others and yourself, so be cautious."

Fang Yuan bowed his head and said in a deep voice.

Li Shimin is unwilling to be crowned king, and forcing it will only intensify the contradictions between the monarch and the minister.

"Slowly? How? ”

"A battlefield can be as short as half a year or as long as three or five years."

"I don't have that much time, His Royal Highness King Zhou, do you understand my suffering?"

Li Jing clenched his fists and said angrily.

"But if you're in such a hurry, it's not necessarily a good thing."

"If you don't get it right, it will only make you ruined, or even lose the battle."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said.

is still unwilling to help Li Jing.

It's too urgent, it's too utilitarian, and something will happen.

"I have never been defeated, and the name of the god of war is not in vain."

"His Royal Highness King Zhou, let me ask you one last time, are you willing to help me?"

Li Jing looked at Fang Yuan deeply and said in a deep voice.

Fang Yuan also looked at Li Jing and saw the incomparable desire for the king in Li Jing's eyes.

That's a demon, too eager to be crowned king, and he doesn't look like the previous General Li Jing.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to."

Fang Yuan finally shook his head, unwilling to help Li Jing at this point.

"Then you go."

Li Jing snorted coldly and retreated to his original place.

Fang Yuan sat still, and after looking at Li Jing for a while, he got up and left.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Criminal Department, Fang Yuan saw Liu Yichen at the door, as if he was waiting for him.

"What did General Li Jing tell you?"

Liu Yichen stared at Fang Yuan and said.

"Nothing, just talk about it."

Fang Yuan didn't plan to tell the other party.

"Nothing, why sit so close?"

"You know you're sitting like this, it's hard for me to report it!"

Liu Yichen said in a deep voice.

There was an order from above, not to monitor Fang Yuan and Li Jing's conversation.

But Fang Yuan and Li Jing sat so close to each other, and their voices were so small, how should she write well when she was in the book?

"Just write it down."

Fang Yuan smiled slightly.

"You!"

Liu Yichen stomped his feet angrily.

Seeing that Fang Yuan had already gotten into the carriage, she also got in.

"Miss Liu, are you doing this?"

Fang Yuan was slightly speechless.

"I don't mind a girl's family, what do you mind?"

"There's no one else now, tell me honestly, what did you talk about just now?"

Liu Yichen stared at Fang Yuan and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just a trifle."

"You go down, I don't have time to talk to you right now."

Fang Yuan definitely wouldn't tell the other party.

After all, Li Jing's request was too much, and it would be of no one benefit to be known.

Moreover, Fang Yuan felt that since Li Jing was looking for himself, if he didn't agree, he would create the conditions by himself when he came out.

If that's the case, it can't be told to Liu Yichen.

"You bastard!"

Liu Yichen scolded Fang Yuan hatefully and got out of the carriage.

Seeing Fang Yuan's carriage move away, Liu Yichen flicked his sleeves and returned to the Criminal Department.

Fang Mansion.

When Fang Yuan returned, Li Tai actually came.

But he didn't come to find Fang Yuan, he came to find Princess Changle to go back.

Princess Changle stayed here with Fang Yuan last night, and she almost didn't make a fuss in the palace.

It's just because Princess Changle didn't make it clear to the steward in the palace, she just registered when she left the palace.

So Li Tai was ordered by Empress Changsun to call Princess Chang Changle back.

Seeing Li Tai again, Fang Yuan was probably surprised.

Li Tai lost weight, lost a lot of weight, and almost didn't dare to admit it.

In the past, he should have had three hundred pounds, but now it is only two hundred and fifty at most.

It's only been so long, and I can't believe that I've lost so much weight.

"King Zhou, you come to help me persuade Changle and let her go back to the palace with me now."

When Li Tai saw Fang Yuan, his eyes condensed slightly, and then became natural.

He didn't salute Fang Yuan, nor did he behave rebelliously and so on.

"His Royal Highness King Wei, you are embarrassing me, if the princess doesn't go back, I can't help it."

Fang Yuan saluted slightly and said with a smile.

Although they are all kings, they are obviously the noble points of King Wei.

After all, he is the emperor's own son, or a descendant, not a king with a different surname.

But if anyone is more powerful, it must be Fang Yuan's more powerful.

After all, Fang Yuan is in control of the money bank, the research institute, the various factories and so on.

Although they were all things made by Fang Yuan himself, they were all indispensable things for the imperial court.

"Now the queen mother wants to see her, but she refuses to go back, and it is difficult for me to go back and explain."

Li Tai pursed his lips, looked at Du Miaoyan and said.

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei will sit down first, and I will persuade Changle."

Du Miaoyan pulled Princess Changle aside.

In the living room, there are only two people left, Xia Yuan and Li Tai.

"Why did His Royal Highness King Wei suddenly lose so much weight?"

In the end, there are only two people in the master's house, and Fang Yuan has to entertain Li Tai.

"I was too fat before and wanted to lose weight."

"I didn't expect it to be so powerful, and I lost weight as soon as I lost it."

Li Tai laughed.

At this time, Fang Yuan noticed that Li Tai's face was a little yellow, as if he was hungry.

Although the spirit seems to be good, even a little excited, but overall it is fine.

"I see, but please also pay attention to your health."

"Losing weight is not a good thing for the human body."

Fang Yuan comforted.

"It's okay, thank you for your concern."

Li Tai frowned, his face displeased.

But it soon returned to normal, thanks to Fang Yuan's concern.

Seeing this, Fang Yuan knew that Li Tai didn't like people to talk about his weight loss, so he didn't continue to talk about it.

Then the two chatted a lot, about a stick of incense, Du Miaoyan pulled Princess Changle back, and Princess Changle had agreed to go back with Li Tai.

Fang Yuan and Du Miaoyan sent the two of them out to the door, watching the two of them leave.

At this time, Du Miaoyan let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong?"

Fang Yuan looked at him curiously.

"Husband, do you know why Li Tai is so thin all of a sudden?"

Du Miaoyan said.

"Why?"

Fang Yuan asked curiously.

He was very curious just now, and he also felt that Li Tai did not answer positively.

When Du Miaoyan talked about it now, Fang Yuan's curiosity was immediately seduced.

"Because before the emperor canonized Li Zhi as the crown prince, he promised Li Tai: as long as Li Tai can lose weight, the crown prince will be his in the future."

Du Miaoyan said with a sigh.

Just because of a promise, Li Tai has lost dozens of pounds in the past few months.

"What the Emperor promised?"

"How do you know?"

Fang Yuan's heart skipped a heavy beat.

No wonder, when Li Zhi was named the crown prince, Li Tai didn't say anything, and just hid and disappeared.

It turned out that Li Shimin gave such a promise.

Why?

Isn't this the cause of hope for Lee Tae and the cause of future fratricide?

"What Changle said, said that Li Tai accidentally said that he leaked his mouth."

Du Miaoyan said.

Princess Changle came to live in Fangfu this time, and because Li Tai didn't eat or drink to lose weight.

She persuaded to no avail, and she couldn't tell anyone else, so she could only be out of sight and out of mind, and came to stay here for two days.

But I didn't expect that Li Tai would come to persuade him to go back today, and Princess Changle talked to Du Miaoyan about it.

"The emperor may have done something foolish."

Fang Yuan didn't know what to say, and said with a sigh.

Look at it now, Li Tai has lost so many pounds in just a few months.

After another three or five months, Li Tai really reduced his weight and asked Li Shimin for the position of crown prince, and the contradiction intensified.

Because the crown prince didn't change it if he wanted to, Li Shimin would definitely not agree to Li Tai's request.

"I hope not."

"After all, those who support Li Tai will support Li Zhi when the time comes."

Du Miaoyan understood what Fang Yuan said.

But I feel that what the emperor did is not a foolish thing.

Those who support Li Tai now support Li Zhi by default, and Li Tai no longer has supporters.

The emperor made a false promise to Li Tai, which resolved the situation that could have been that the brothers might have faced each other.

"Hopefully."

"The situation in the imperial court is estimated to be chaotic again."

"I went to the palace to see the emperor today, and he had a very bad attitude towards me, and then I went to see Li Jing, and I felt that he was stunned by the king and the devil."

Fang Yuan also talked about his own events today.

"In this way, General Li Jing is really stunned by the demon of the king."

"I can't believe that people like General Li Jing are so keen on power."

Du Miaoyan said with a sigh.

In the past, General Li Jing gave people the impression of being calm and did not seek fame and fortune.

But listening to Fang Yuan say this, Li Jing was stunned by the king and the devil, and he would not give up if he didn't seal the king.

"It's not the right time for us to come back, we can't do what we want to do, and we don't want to be involved in it."

Fang Yuan was a little melancholy.

He only wants to get Lingnan and Future Island right now.

Other things, such as wars, are not in the mood for the time being.

For countries such as rare earth or Tibet, Fang Yuan thought about annexing them.

But trading to make their money is also a kind of annexation, and it is also a kind of annexation to put one's own country's money into them.

On the contrary, the latter is better, and there is no need to manage them after annexing their land, etc., which is a lot less troublesome.

Moreover, Fang Yuan is not the supreme leader of Datang, and Fang Yuan's idea cannot be realized.

"It's okay, it's a big deal for us to leave, and we will be in Lingnan in advance."

Du Miaoyan said in a deep voice.

Now that Fang Yuan is the King of Zhou, many things can't be related to the source.

If you really want to pull Fang Yuan into the game, you have to see if you have that qualification.

"I hope so."

Fang Yuan said.

Subsequently, the husband and wife returned to the house.

After playing with the two little ones who could already walk, Fang Yuan went to the study.

Although he didn't go to Liaozhou to see Zhao Yingcai this time, Fang Yuan felt that it was necessary to write a letter to the other party, and he hadn't been in touch for a long time.

Even the last time he was crowned king, Zhao Yingcai's letter has not been replied to.

After thousands of words, Fang Yuan finally finished writing the letter, and couldn't help but recall the bits and pieces of his previous relationship with Zhao Yingcai.

Thanks to him, I am where I am now.

It's just that now that he is the king of Zhou, he is still a thorn.

Is it an opportunity to mention Zhao Yingcai's position again?

This idea had already been thought of when Fang Yuan was not the king of Zhou.

But there were too many things in Liaozhou that needed to be watched by his own people, so Fang Yuan was a little hesitant.

Or you can consider transferring the assets of Liaozhou
