Volume 1 Chang'an Chapter 27 Subordinate
At this time in his previous life, Li Yan didn't tell Li Ye this, so although he had a grudge against King An's death in Huainan and the fact that the court did not reward him, he was just a mustard, after all, he was in the market not long after, and at that time, the mud bodhisattva crossed the river, and it was useless to think more.
Li Ye glanced at Li Yan, and suddenly said, "The rumors you heard, I'm afraid that you haven't finished talking yet, right?"
Li Yan was stunned: "How do you know?" He disturbed his head, a little embarrassed, "Don't blame me for not finishing it once, the latter words are really too terrifying, and the criticism of the court and His Majesty is too heavy, I didn't plan to say it......"
He thought simply, and only planned to say half of it, which shows that his heart is immature.
Li Ye laughed: "The rumor must be that my father was killed in Bagong Mountain at the hands of the imperial court, right? Those who saved Pang Xun, the people who besieged and killed his father, including the people who later captured Pang Xun, are all masters of the imperial courtβapart from the imperial court, which immortal sect in the world, which feudal town, can gather a group of monks with such a high cultivation?"
And the one who presided over all this in front must be Kang Chengxun. Oh, by the way, Xing Guogong was also in the army at that time, so he must have a part in this matter. In other words, the death of my father was not a death on the battlefield, but a death due to the suspicion of kings!"
Li Yan opened his mouth wide and was speechless, and only after a long time did he say in surprise: "How do you know this...... Have you heard those rumors?"
Li Ye sneered: "Other than that, what else is possible?"
Li Yan was speechless for a while, and after a long while, he said: "This matter is too sensational, and after all, it is a rumor in the rivers and lakes, it can't be true, you must not believe this rumor." β
told the rumor to Li Ye, and hoped that Li Ye would not believe the rumor, such words and deeds would inevitably appear to be deranged in cause and effect.
Unexpectedly, Li Ye said seriously: "Of course, these are all rumors, and they must be those who are dissatisfied with the imperial court, and they deliberately spread them to confuse people's hearts! My father has made great contributions to the society all his life, and it is only because His Majesty has valued him that he was canonized as a prince, in charge of military and political power, and is a very popular minister, how can Your Majesty be suspicious of his father? Fallacies confuse the public, and this is what he is talking about, which smears the imperial court and also discredits my father, of course I will not believe it!"
Li Yan didn't expect Li Ye to come to such a conclusion in the end, and was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and then thought that what Li Ye said was indeed reasonable, and couldn't help but admire Li Ye for having such an awareness, and said sincerely: "Brother Ye really understands righteousness!"
Li Ye smiled and asked casually: "Who are the people who spread these rumors, have you ever seen such rumors in the east, doesn't the government care?"
Li Yan didn't think that Li Ye's words meant anything else, so he naturally said: "What I heard in the market is that some people are talking, and the officials in the Eastern Capital have arrested some people, but they haven't asked where the rumors came from. β
Li Ye nodded, took a sip of wine from his wine glass, and used it to hide the disappointment that flashed in his eyes: "That's a pity, if you catch those who spread rumors, you must be severely punished." β
Li Yan: "That's nature!"
......
Li Yan really planned to live in King An's Mansion to ensure Li Ye's safety, but in the end he was persuaded by Li Ye to leave.
In the case that King An's Mansion has been attacked once by the "Pang Xun Yu Party", if Li Ye still encounters any accidents, then the face of the imperial court will really be gone, and Chang'an Mansion and those big people will not allow such a thing to happen - although there are signs of chaos in the world, after all, there is no real chaos - this is also the reason why Li Guanshu does not dare to really do anything to Li Ye.
The court still needs face, in a sense, face represents majesty and order, and without face, the court cannot control the order of the world.
After sending Li Yan away, Li Ye sat in the hall and fell into deep thought.
Shangguan Chengcheng was standing next to him, and seeing that Li Ye had not spoken, he still couldn't hold back after enduring it for a long time, and asked out loud: "The prince really doesn't believe the words of His Royal Highness King Pu...... Those rumors?"
Li Ye glanced at Shangguan Allure: "Do you believe it?"
Shangguan Chengcheng pondered for a moment, unconsciously bit Yan Hong's lip, and said tentatively: "Not really...... It doesn't make any sense. β
Li Ye sneered: "It's not completely unreasonable, but extremely close to the truth." β
Shangguan Chengcheng was stunned: "Then why did the prince of the previous world speak like that in front of His Royal Highness King Pu?"
Li Ye looked out of the door, it was twilight at this time, the last rays of sunlight had dissipated, and the locust trees on the courtyard wall outside the door were exuding bursts of shadows.
He said slowly: "King Pu's mouth is not strict, and there is no discipline in his actions, if I show suspicion of my father's death, my dissatisfaction with the court and His Majesty, let others know, whether I, the prince, will inherit it, and whether I will become a prince in the future? β
Shangguan Allure sighed, and after thinking for a while, she finally understood that she was a military general in the end, with a pure heart, and she was not used to these conspiracies and calculations: "I see." β
However, she frowned slightly: "Shizi...... If it turns out as rumored to be, then King Ann ......"
Li Ye's eyebrows were lowered and he did not speak.
Shangguan Chengcheng seemed to realize something, her already fair face turned even paler, and she almost exclaimed: "If this is the case, then the son of the world will ...... Isn't it difficult to take every step?"
Of course, it is difficult, if Li Xian is calculated to death by the imperial court, then Li Ye wants to be a leader in the future, wants to make a difference, and grasps the power to be able to compete with the princes in the troubled times, it is difficult to ascend to the sky, and it is almost impossible.
The imperial court can't tolerate Li Xian, so naturally it can't tolerate Li Ye.
Li Ye looked at the shadow in the courtyard outside the door: "That's why I asked King Pu, where did those rumors come from...... If the rumors are true, then the people who know these secrets must not be ordinary people. The people on Kang Chengxun and Xing Guogong's side naturally don't spread the rumors, so the one who spreads these rumors is very likely to be his father's protΓ©gΓ©. β
Shangguan Chengcheng was puzzled: "King An's former subordinates?"
Li Ye nodded: "Of course they spread these rumors for a purpose. The question is, what is their purpose, to cry out for their father, to cry out for their father, and if so, to prove that they are at least faithful to their father, and if I can find them, it will not be difficult for them to be of my use. β
King An's subordinates and cronies will naturally not be indiscriminate.
If Li Ye wants to make a fortune in the coming troubled times, he first needs to gather people and have his own team.
Shangguan Chengcheng was disappointed and said: "It's a pity that King Pu doesn't know who those people are. β
Li Ye smiled: "Don't be disappointed, this is good news." β
Shangguan was puzzled: "Good news?"
Li Ye said: "If King Pu knows who they are, and the court naturally knows who they are, then they will be arrested by the court...... Now that they haven't revealed their identities, it means that they are still safe, which means that I will have a chance to meet them in the future. β
Shangguan Allure suddenly said: "The son of the world is Mingjian." β
Suddenly, she was worried: "It's just that in this case, will the imperial court still let the prince inherit the prince? What about the path to the throne after the prince succeeds? The imperial court and Your Majesty, I am afraid that the prince will not be able to make meritorious contributions......"
If it weren't for Li Xian's sudden death in Huainan, Li Ye's current situation would not be so unbearable, and he would not have been in the market in his previous life, suffered a lot, and finally died of hatred.
It can even be said that if Li Xian hadn't died early, it would have been said whether Huang Chao would have been able to break through Chang'an a few years later.
Li Ye's gaze passed through the heavy shadows outside the door, and fell on the distance of unknown distance, where it was twilight, and even the lights of Chang'an City were difficult to disperse: "It's not too big a problem to attack the lord, after all, the obstacles have been cleared, as for the ...... of the lord"
He was silent for a moment, and said something that made Shangguan Chengcheng puzzled: "Your Majesty, you won't live long......"
......
Prime Minister's Office.
The lights in the room were bright, and Wei Baoheng, Kang Chengxun, and Li Guanshu sat together to talk.
"In the face of the coercion of the Guogong, he can be calm, and even when he knows that he can't accept a move from the Guogong, he does not hesitate to fight with his life, and he can even let the royal palace order forbidden, so that this prince of An Wang is not only not a straw bag, but overnight, he has become a rare handsome man, with good knowledge and skills, and he is already terrifying?"
Wei Baoheng, the prime minister who is in the throne, lowered his eyes when he spoke, and although his tone was flat, it was not without sarcasm, and I don't know if he was mocking the impermanence of the world or the incompetence of some people.
Li Guanshu, the prince of Xing Guo, who is behind the small case on the left, has a somewhat unsightly face, and anyone who encounters such a situation like him will have a bad face: "Yao'er folded in King An's Mansion, it is indeed reckless, and I blame my negligence in discipline on weekdays...... But Li Ye's shaft, in Taixuan, won the Dao luck left by Yuan Tianshi, which can be described as a great change overnight, not only did his cultivation reach the second level of qi cultivation in a blink of an eye, but his mind and wrist have improved a lot, just like opening his mind, which is very different from usual. β
Kang Chengxun, who is now the envoy of Hedong Jiedu and happened to return to Beijing to report on his work, said teasingly after hearing this: "When Guogong said this, don't you regret the decision to seek that little prince? Listening to the meaning of Guogong's words, if Li Ye had the current mental insight, Guogong would not dare to worry about his title of King An?"
Li Guanshu said in a deep voice: "What does Kang Gong mean by this?"
Kang Chengxun shook his head and sighed: "Don't be angry, but according to the current situation, does Guogong plan to take the title of King An and exchange it with Li Ye's child? If this is the case, wouldn't this be done, Guogong is afraid of Li Ye's child's heart? If this matter spreads, how can Guogong stand above the court in the future?"
Li Guanshu said with a dark face: "Why did Kang Gong say so ugly, now that Yao'er is in Li Ye's hands, what can he do? Kang Gong has never seen that Li Ye today, and he doesn't know how much this little girl has changed." β
Kang Chengxun laughed: "No matter how big that little change is, no matter how powerful it is, it can be compared to Li Xian? You and I have even calculated Li Xian, are you still afraid of this milky child?"
