Chapter 106
Wang Yu was immersed in the heart-warming father's love. Suddenly someone grabbed her right hand. She was startled and subconsciously wanted to throw it away. When she raised her head, she saw a familiar face.
Li Shimin said nothing, only gave her a faint smile, as if to say: "Don't be afraid."
Feeling the warmth coming from his hands, Wang Yu looked up at Li Shimin, then at Li Yuan, and suddenly smiled silently.
She has nothing to be afraid of. She has earned this life, and even if she dies now, she is still worth it.
At this moment, the anxiety in Wang Yu's heart was completely dispelled, replaced by relaxation and joy.
Li Yuan stopped and stretched out his hand to Su Wei: "Fang Guogong, we are here, please search as you like."
Seeing Li Yuan's relaxed and casual look, Su Wei concluded that he was pretending to be calm, but in fact he was extremely panicked. He waved his hand and said, "Search carefully."
Although Li Shimin felt uneasy, he still had a trace of curiosity. He knew that this forbidden area must be related to Wang Yu's New Year's gift to his father, so he followed everyone inside.
Duan Zhixuan couldn't help but look around. He had never been to this forbidden area. Of course, he couldn't enter it under normal circumstances.
It doesn't look like anything special, except for the armor and weapons hanging on the racks, but that's not unusual. Which military camp doesn't have armor and weapons?
Cheng Zhijie and Xu Shiji looked at each other and saw solemnity in each other's eyes. They unanimously evaluated in their hearts, if things really got out of hand, how would they choose?
Zhang Liang didn't seem to think too much and looked around with his flexible eyes.
Luo Shixin quietly poked Qin Qiong and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Bao, do you think Duke Tang really knows how to make private armor?"
Qin Qiong made a gesture of silence and did not answer his question.
Luo Shixin twitched his lips boredly and stopped talking.
After a cup of tea, when Su Wei walked around the forbidden area and found nothing but some armor and weapons hanging to dry, his face suddenly became as gloomy as a dark cloud.
Li Yuan looked at Su Wei leisurely and said with a smile: "Fang Guogong, these are the armors used by soldiers to fight against the Turks. The sun has been good recently, so I ordered people to take out these armors to dry.
"I dare to ask Fang Guogong, these are not made by me privately, right?"
Su Wei pursed his lips tightly, and after a moment of silence, he had to spit out two words: "It doesn't count."
Li Yuan kept his smile unchanged: "Does Duke Fang still want to search elsewhere? The coach's camp? Or my mansion?"
When Su Wei heard this, his eyes darkened. He had just been to the commander's camp in the morning, and sent people to watch the Duke of Tang's mansion day and night, but he did not find Li Yuan smuggling soldiers into the mansion.
He couldn't help but glance at Su Dan and his confidants. They both confirmed that there were siege equipment in the forbidden area of the military camp. Could it be that the information they inquired about was wrong?
Or did Li Yuan deliberately create signs of privately making armor in order to lure him into taking the bait and uncover the spies in the army?
Su Wei felt that his guess was close to the truth, and his expression became even uglier. He was not willing to accept that the spies he had finally placed were ruined like this.
But no matter how unwilling he is, he has to admit that without real evidence, he can't touch Li Yuan.
Su Wei gritted his teeth and said, "No need."
Li Yuan suddenly changed his expression and said in a deep voice: "Since Fang Guogong has confirmed that the secret report is false, please hand over the person who reported it."
Zhao Cai did not want to hand over the person, so he made up an excuse casually: "The person who reported the report did not say it himself, but wrote a letter of report and sent it to Fang Guogong's office, so we don't know who the person who reported the report was."
Li Yuan sneered, pointed at the confidant guard beside Su Wei and said: "I saw him saying a few words to Fang Guogong just now, and then Fang Guogong said that he had received a secret report and wanted to search the military camp.
"It can be seen that this person must be related to the matter reported. Please ask Fang Guogong to hand this person over to me. I will definitely be able to find out the person behind the scenes."
Su Wei was shocked and immediately said: "What he just told me was not a report, but a family matter in Luoyang."
Afraid of being entangled by Li Yuan, he immediately ordered his confidants: "Go and bring the person who reported the report."
Zhao Cai wanted to stop him, but after receiving Su Wei's eyes, he gave up the idea.
Within a moment, the person who reported the report was brought.
Li Yuan's expression turned cold. He had seen this man before. He was a brigade commander in the military camp.
He sneered in his heart and ordered Li Shimin: "Erlang, take this man down and interrogate him to see if he has any other accomplices."
Li Shimin accepted the order and immediately escorted the person to the interrogation room.
Li Yuan and others returned to the coach's camp.
Everyone in the tent was sitting or standing, making tea, drinking tea, or remaining silent, with different thoughts.
Not long after, Li Shimin came back with the people in custody.
"Aye, according to the person who reported the report, there are five other comrades in the army, these are the five."
He pointed at the people who were being escorted in, and said: "But they insisted that they were motivated by selfishness and no one instigated them. The person who reported the report could not bear the punishment and was already dead.
"Please let Aye decide."
Li Yuan looked at the five people. Their bodies were all covered with scars from torture. Their clothes were ragged, their flesh was flying, and their wounds were still bleeding. It was shocking.
They are already dying.
Li Yuan knew at a glance that these people were tough and would rather die than recruit the people behind the scenes. He coldly ordered: "Kill them and hang them in the training ground for three days to serve as a warning to others."
Su Wei's hand holding the tea cup shook and he almost couldn't hold it. He knew that Li Yuan's move was intended to scare others and warn them that this would be the consequences of opposing him.
He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was calm and calm.
Witnessing those people being beheaded and hung on the high platform in the center of the training ground, Wang Yu felt a little uncomfortable, but she knew that this was politics, and this was the ancient times when imperial power was supreme.
After Su Wei and others left the military camp, Li Yuan took Li Shimin and Wang Yu to a place.
It was a col in the deep mountains, several miles away from the military camp, and its location was extremely hidden.
Wang Yu was surprised: "Aye, when did you transfer?"
Li Shimin also looked over. He had long known that his father was secretly doing something in the forbidden area, but his father didn't tell him, so he didn't ask. Looking at Wang Yu's expression before, he was worried that something invisible would be discovered.
.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a false alarm, and the spies in the army were also eradicated, which was an unexpected gain.
Li Yuan showed a scheming smile and said slowly: "I have long been aware of Zhao Cai and Su Wei's intentions, and they have been keeping quiet just to lure out the spies they planted in the army.
"Actually, last night, I ordered people to transport things out of the military camp."
Seeing Li Yuan's easy words, Wang Yu disapproved. She knew that the difficulty and danger involved was no less than killing the enemy on the battlefield. If it had been a few hours later, Su Wei and Zhao Cai would have caught him, and the consequences would be disastrous.
I don’t know whether Li Yuan has a lucky aura or whether Li Yuan is the son of destiny. He is favored by God and can always turn danger into safety.
Arriving at the depths of the mountain col, Li Yuan excitedly said to Li Shimin: "Erlang, let me show you the New Year's gift that Xiao Yu'er gave me."
