Chapter 295 Seeking Wealth and Danger
Everyone in the hall knew very well that the real crisis had not been resolved - Li Renren would never sit idly by, and would definitely surround the State Guest House after dawn.
In addition, Cui Ying will lead the Baishou army into Beijing tomorrow, and if she doesn't mess with these two actual rulers of Goryeo, the five highnesses and their five hundred elites are still a dead end.
Only when Li Renren is dead will the situation take a real turn. And it must be used for him to die before Cui Ying returns to Beijing......
~~
After agreeing with several highnesses on how to act tomorrow, the three of them took their leave and left the guest house.
They tacitly agreed not to ride horses and sit in a sedan chair, and walked side by side on the dark street.
At this time, the fire of Taifu Temple has not yet been extinguished, and the smell of roast horse meat is permeated in the entire Kaijing City......
"Actually, we can also make the identities of the five highnesses public, so that Li Yuanjun and Cui Yuanjun can't do whatever they want." A civil servant like Zheng Mengzhou is naturally extremely uninterested in the military coup, so he always wants to use political methods to solve the crisis:
"I can also go and ask the Empress Dowager Mingde to come forward, I can always try my best to keep the five highnesses safe."
"It's a way." Jin Tao is now, as long as he can not die, he can do anything.
"Hehe......" Li Chenggui sneered silently. He is a martial artist, so he is naturally super interested in a martial coup.
On the contrary, he will not gain much from a political solution to the crisis.
"Why, General Li has a different opinion?" Zheng Mengzhou said unhappily.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu has made a clear will, you have just gone out, and you are going to disobey the yang and the yin?" Li Chenggui asked coldly: "Did you drink the wine just now?" ”
"I didn't say that." Jin Tao hurriedly cleared up.
"Your Highness is young and vigorous, and he is not from Korea. We, the courtiers of Goryeo, have to think about the future of our country. Zheng Mengzhou raised his face and taught Li Chenggui a lesson.
"We're rough people, we can't think about the long term." Li Chenggui snorted without oil and salt: "We just know that we have to do it if we agree!" Otherwise, the blame of several highnesses would be much more serious than the consequences of Li Renren's death! ”
"That's right." Jin Tao nodded and said, "Without Li Renren, there is also Liu Renren." But if the highnesses hold a grudge against us, Goryeo doesn't know how many sins he will suffer in the future. ”
"Alas......" Zheng Mengzhou sighed, and just wanted to say a few more words, but Li Chenggui snorted coldly: "Zheng Sicheng, since we have our own opinions, it is better to go our own way, and don't pass by!" ”
"Hey, General Li, don't be impulsive, the survival of Goryeo is only the three of us at the moment. Are we going to divide again? Jin Tao hurriedly grabbed the two of them, did not let Li Chenggui leave, and at the same time persuaded Zheng Mengzhou bitterly:
"Zheng Sicheng, you are a scholar, and you talk about rules everywhere. But Li Yuanjun holds the forbidden army in his hand, and he won't tell you the rules. No matter how you want to solve it, you have to get rid of him first. Otherwise, it's a dead end. ”
"Hmm." Li Chenggui nodded and said, "It's still the people of Jinshe who can understand it, that's what I mean." ”
"Hey, okay." Zheng Mengzhou saw that the two had reached an agreement, and he really couldn't refute it, so he had to nod and say, "Then let's go according to the plan and act separately." ”
~~
After Li Chenggui returned home, he called his brother and son to explain to them the current situation and his decision.
"Wealth is in danger, I decided to do this vote!"
At that time, his brother-in-law Li Yuangui, brother-in-law Li He, Li Ying, brother-in-law Li Zhilan, and two sons Li Fangyu and Li Fangguo were present. The Li family is all ambitious, and after hearing Li Chenggui's decision, there was no worry on their faces, but they were full of excitement.
After receiving the task, the children called the generals of the family up overnight, began to light fires and cook, distribute bows and crossbows, sharpen knives, and wait for the dawn......
Before dawn, an official from the capital hall came to pass on Li Ren's appointment, and ordered Li Chenggui to hurry to the capital hall to discuss matters.
Li Chenggui put his wide official robe on his armor jacket, hung a sword from his waist, and walked out of the hall with his head held high.
Li Zhilan followed closely behind with his bow and arrows on his back.
In the courtyard, the heavily armed soldiers of the Li family had already assembled, and silently followed the two out of the gate of the Li Mansion.
This murderous posture startled the officials of the capital hall who came to give the order.
"General Li, what is this?"
"There was chaos in the capital last night, and Cui Yuanjun was not in Beijing, didn't Li Yuanjun call me to order me to lead troops to quell the chaos?" Li Chenggui said lightly.
"That's ......," the herald officer said no more.
~~
Li Chenggui made the same statement and successfully led the crowd into the inner city. It wasn't until outside the gate of the capital hall that Li Zhilan and the others were ordered to wait here.
He unsheathed his sword, handed it to the soldiers at the door, and then entered the yamen of the capital hall alone.
In the conference hall, all the bigwigs have arrived, just waiting for him.
Li Chenggui apologized to Li Renren and sat down in the ninth position.
"Except for Cui Yuanjun, who is not in the capital, everyone has arrived, so let's start." Li Renren glanced at the empty chair opposite, and slowly said, "You should already know what happened last night, right?" ”
"Hmm."
"Yes......" The princes of the capital hall nodded one after another.
"Li Yuan, you were at the State Guest House last night, right?" Li Renren looked at Li Chenggui.
Li Chenggui's official position is that his subordinates approve of things, and to put it bluntly, he votes for it......
"Yes, I was invited to a banquet with Zheng Sicheng last night, and the invitation was sent by the Jinshe people, saying that I had already asked the king." Li Chenggui replied slowly.
Jin Tao is also in the capital hall, willing to accompany the last seat. Wen Yan nodded, indicating that what Li Chenggui said was right.
"They still have the kung fu to entertain you to eat and drink last night?" Li Renren's beard trembled slightly, he just barely maintained his composure, but in fact, he panicked like a dog.
"The envoy doesn't have to pick up a knife and cut people himself." Li Chenggui smiled bitterly.
"So you're always sitting and eating?" A military minister asked.
"When we heard movement outside, the front hall door was closed, and no one wanted to leave." Li Chenggui spread his hands and said: "The situation was unclear at that time, and we could only sit and wait." ”
"Yes." Jin Tao echoed: "Yesterday, I thought they were going to have a treat, but I didn't expect to go to the Shuntian Pavilion to kill people and set fire." ”
"And then?" Li Renren asked with a dark face.
"Later, it was probably the second half of the night." Li Chenggui continued: "The people who went out came back and threw the head of Cheri Timur into the arms of the Jinsheren. ”
"It almost scared me to death...... Jin Tao said.
"They also said that they had completely annihilated the Yuan Dynasty mission, and only four people had been killed on their own side." Li Chenggui said with a look of disbelief: "Is the Ming army really so powerful?" Why am I so unbelieving? ”
"The Yuan Dynasty mission was indeed completely annihilated, more than 500 people, none of them survived." Li Renren sighed and said, "Do they have anything to say to the old man?" ”
"They said, Li Yuanjun," Li Chenggui swallowed and said, "Now you should know what is wrong......
