Chapter 773: His Majesty's Edict

Soon, Li Jiancheng and Li Yi learned about this.

Li Yi was very worried: "Your Highness, now the people of the King of Qin have also gotten involved. Things are getting more and more difficult. What should we do?"

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng was immediately angry: "What should I do? What should I do? If you had done it more secretly, how could you have so many troubles?

"Now you still have the face to ask me what to do? Ah?"

Li Jiancheng was furious and his tone was very impatient: "You have caused trouble yourself, solve it yourself, don't bother me."

Judging from what Li Jiancheng meant, it seemed that he didn't care about this matter, and Li Yi suddenly panicked.

He quickly said, "This is indeed my people who did not do it thoroughly. This is my fault and I am willing to receive the punishment."

"But I arrested Lin Zhiwu with your permission. Now that I have trouble, you can't ignore your highness.

"When Lin Zhiwu helped the Qin King's people deal with me, I said that Lin Zhiwu must have defected to the Qin King. Now it seems that I am not wrong.

"Look, as soon as the matter came out, the people of the King of Qin couldn't wait to help find someone, and the Princess of Qin also said that she would help Su Dingfang at all costs. What does this mean?"

Seeing that Li Jiancheng's face became gloomy, Li Yi felt a little relieved and continued, "This means that Lin Zhiwu had long surrendered to the King of Qin, so the Princess of Qin would give full help.

"I have reason to suspect that Su Dingfang had already surrendered to the King of Qin, and he must be the spy who stayed in the Eastern Palace by the King of Qin.

"Your Highness, we did nothing wrong. This time we captured Lin Zhiwu, not only did we test the position of Lin Zhiwu and Su Dingfang, but also firmly controlled the weapons genius of the Tang Dynasty.

"With Lin Zhiwu, we can create more and more powerful weapons. Even if the Qin King's army is as strong as a tiger, we can destroy it."

Li Jiancheng's face gradually calmed down.

Li Yi peeked at his changes and took the opportunity to say, "Your Highness, the situation is not too bad now. As long as we persist for a while, they will give up looking if they can't find Lin Zhiwu.

"At least, everyone except Su Dingfang will give up, so the case will be left alone.

"So, I think Lin Zhiwu should be transferred to a safer place to avoid their searches."

After hearing this, Li Jiancheng immediately objected: "No, now the city is full of people searching for Lin Zhiwu. If we transfer Lin Zhiwu at this time, it will definitely attract attention.

"Once someone catches the handle, your Majesty will never let you and me go.

"Let Lin Zhiwu stay with you first. I will ask Changlin Jun to search. As long as they search once, they will not search for it a second time."

Li Yi was waiting for this sentence, and he was very happy: "Yes, do everything according to Your Highness's instructions."

After Li Yi left, Li Jiancheng sat silently on the chair and began to think about what Li Yi said.

Will Su Dingfang be a traitor?

Has he already defected to the King of Qin?

"Your Highness"

At this time, Wei Ting appeared at the gate of the hall and shouted: "Your Highness, I have something important to report."

Li Jiancheng instantly came to his senses and looked at the door: "Come in."

Wei Ting walked into the hall quickly and said to Li Jiancheng: "Your Highness, Your Majesty sends someone to bring a handwritten edict and summon you to Renzhi Palace to meet immediately."

Go to Renzhi Palace?

Li Jiancheng was a little confused: "Why did my father suddenly ask me to go to Renzhi Palace?"

"I asked the envoy, and he said he didn't know the reason." Wei Ting replied.

Li Jiancheng suddenly felt something was wrong. He was the prince and his father asked him to stay and reign on the country. As a result, he was summoned to Renzhi Palace after just over ten days.

Moreover, even the messenger didn't know the reason, so there must be something strange about this matter.

So Li Jiancheng ordered Wei Ting to hold back the envoy sent by Li Yuan first, and he summoned the ministers of the Eastern Palace to discuss the matter.

He expressed his concern to everyone: "During this period, there has been no mistake in our country's reign. Even if it was Lin Zhiwu's case, it would be just a small mistake. My father would never go to Renzhi Palace to hold accountable for this little thing.

"Besides, Lin Zhiwu's incident was just spread today, and it was impossible for my father to hear so quickly. Therefore, my father was definitely not summoning me for Lin Zhiwu.

"But my father would never summon me for no reason. I thought about it and the only possibility was that the thing I gave Yang Wen to do was exposed."

Xu Shimo followed Li Jiancheng's words: "If this is the case, it must have been reported by the King of Qin.

"Last time Your Highness privately dispatched local troops to Beijing, Your Majesty warned you that this time, your Majesty will definitely be furious.

"It would be nothing if you just smuggled armor. This is not a death sentence after all, but if the King of Qin stirred up the flames in this matter and gave His Highness a charge of "involving a local general and conspiring to usurp the throne", then His Highness will be dead."

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng was shocked and sweated in a cold summer.

He once requisitioned Yang Wengan's soldiers to protect the Eastern Palace, and now he has smuggled armor to Yang Wengan. If Li Shimin seized these handles, it would be enough to give him a charge of "conspiracy to usurp the throne".

Li Jiancheng was a little panicked and asked everyone: "What should I do now?"

"Just raise an army." Xu Shimo looked fierce and said to everyone: "Now that Your Majesty is not in the capital, we can take the opportunity to seize the capital and control all the officials.

"As long as you control the capital, your Majesty and the King of Qin have the ability to be invincible, you will not be able to do anything to us."

Before Xu Shimo finished speaking, Wei Zheng cursed: "This is simply a bastard. Your Majesty is still there and there is no disaster in the country. However, the crown prince of a country openly raised an army. What is the difference between this and usurping the throne?

"At that time, the people of the world will despise Your Highness fiercely, and they will attack him in anger. So what if you temporarily seize the capital? In the end, will you be taken back by His Majesty's army of rebellion?"

Xu Shimo's face was flushed by his scolding, and he was ashamed to speak again.

At this time, Zhao Hongzhi made a suggestion: "It seems that the matter of Your Highness's smuggling armor has been revealed. At this time, if Your Highness sincerely apologizes, he can win back His Majesty's trust.

"I believe that Your Highness can go on the road with light clothes and immediately follow the envoy to Renzhi Palace to apologize to Your Majesty. As long as you show your repentance, Your Majesty will forgive you."

After listening to Zhao Hongzhi's suggestion, Wei Zheng felt a little relieved and agreed: "Your Highness, what Zhao Zhuan said is the best way.

"Now the power of the Eastern Palace is not enough to fight against His Majesty, so we must never raise an army.

"Your Majesty has always supported you. As long as you have not committed a death sentence, your Majesty will not depose your position as crown prince.

"So, as long as you go and apologize, your Majesty will definitely forgive you."

Wang Gui and others expressed their agreement, and at the same time asked Li Jiancheng to make a decision quickly and go to Renzhi Palace to apologize.

Li Jiancheng listened to their opinions silently, and was constantly struggling in his heart.

Until Wei Ting came in and urged Li Jiancheng: "Your Highness, the messenger asked me to ask you when can you set out?"

Li Jiancheng suddenly stood up and said to everyone: "Okay, I'll leave the matter to you in the capital. I'll go to Renzhi Palace to apologize to my father."
