Chapter 1434 Everyone's guess
"Fangxi, last night, the prince's Zuoshazi Yu Zhining's mansion caught fire. Most of the entire backyard was burned, and more than a dozen people were killed or injured. Have you heard of this news?"
Seeing that it was almost time for the court meeting, a group of ministers were preparing to welcome Li Shimin's arrival in Hanyuan Hall.
Of course, taking advantage of this opportunity, many people were whispering there.
Cen Wenben, who had rarely spoken on this occasion, took the initiative to find Fang Xuanling to communicate today.
There is no way, at this critical moment, nothing that happened in Chang'an City could not be so simple as if it was an accident.
The fire in the Yu family may be an accident, but it is more likely not an accident.
The information behind this is very different.
Cen Wenben obviously has a very deep understanding of this.
"I have also heard some of them. Just now, some ministers surrounded Zhining. I guess this news will spread throughout Chang'an City today."
Fang Xuanling looked around and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Fang Xiang, do you think the fire was an accident or is there any other reason?"
Cen Wenben really wants to know Fang Xuanling’s opinion.
"This will only be discovered after the police station investigates. However, I heard that the Yu family did not intend to let the police station intervene.
As a descendant of the Eight Pillar Kingdom at that time, although Yu Zhining was only more dazzling in the court, his foundation was actually very profound.
Regardless of whether the fire was an accident or a special reason, Yu Zhining definitely did not want the police station to intervene, which is also normal."
Fang Xuanling’s relationship is not very good or bad with Cen Wenben.
So naturally I won’t say out the truest thoughts in my heart at will.
Besides, although the two of them were talking very little, this place was Hanyuan Palace after all, and people were standing around.
Changsun Wuji and others next to them could still hear their conversation as long as they listened carefully.
"Hey, I hope this is an accident, otherwise this matter would be complicated."
Cen Wenben sighed regretfully.
He is also considered an imperial party and does not want to see the troubles in the court.
However, there are worlds wherever there are people.
How could it be possible if everyone doesn’t make trouble?
...
Today's court meeting ended relatively early. As soon as Li Shimin returned to the imperial study, Li Zhong reported to him the latest news in Chang'an City.
"The fire last night burned Yu Zhining's favorite second son to death?"
Li Shimin looked at Li Zhong in surprise.
Although he knew that the Yu family was on fire early in the morning.
After all, last night, the backyard of Yu's family was in full swing, and most people in Chang'an City knew who was on fire.
"Yes, it was beyond my expectations that he could come to the morning court today."
"Have you figured out what caused this fire?"
"I don't know yet, but based on the information found by Baiqisi, it is initially inferred that this matter may be artificial arson.
But it’s hard to investigate who did it.”
Li Zhong's words were not beyond Li Shimin's expectations.
However, he was smart and immediately realized a problem.
"Yu Zhining is the mansion of Zhinu. Now that someone has set fire to his house, would it be Kuan'er arranged for someone to do this?"
In many things, although you have not left any evidence or clues, you only need to summarize them based on the information of each party and then identify some suspects.
Then, some targeted investigations were carried out based on the suspicion.
It is obvious that Xiao Yumi was assassinated a few days ago, and Yu Zhining's mansion was set on fire yesterday. Considering that the Chu Prince's Mansion and the East Palace were competing for the position of crown prince, many people think of the Yu family's affairs.
"Your Majesty, many people in Chang'an City are suspicious, but I think if the King of Chu's prince wants to deal with Yu Zhining, there are actually more means to use it."
Li Zhong subconsciously was still developing Li Kuan.
There is no way, his son is now a real Chu King Party. Even if he is only loyal to Li Shimin, some things will change.
"I'm worried about each one, and I'm worried now. Everyone has seen Kuan'er's talent and ability.
If he was allowed to lead the Tang Dynasty forward, the living standards of the people would definitely be higher and higher, and the national strength of our Tang Dynasty would become stronger and stronger.
Although Chi Nu's words are not enterprising enough, it should be no big problem to be a successful emperor.
In fact, if the two brothers can work together sincerely, this is the best solution.”
Li Zhong had no choice but to remain silent when Li Shimin said this.
However, he couldn't help but complain in his heart: If you want His Highness the King of Chu and His Highness the Crown Prince to cooperate sincerely, this is to make water and fire compatible.
...
"Teacher Yu, I feel sorry for you! I have remembered the losses of the Yu family and will definitely make up for it in the future."
In the East Palace, Li Zhi was also a little moved when he saw Yu Zhining coming to the East Palace normally under such circumstances.
He has few ministers, so Yu Zhining is definitely one.
Other princes opened their own governments at a very young age and have raised some of their own personnel to the point of view.
However, Li Zhi grew up with Li Shimin since childhood. Although he has gained a lot of favor, he has also lost a lot of things.
"Your Highness, this time the fire is probably because of some servant who accidentally brought the whale oil candle to the flammable material, so this tragedy appears. You don't need to worry too much."
Yu Zhining thought about it all night last night and thought that when it comes to the outside world, it was better to say that the fire in his home was an accident.
As for the actual investigation, it can naturally continue to be carried out normally, but it is not dependent on the court.
"Whether it is an accident or not, the Yu family in the future will definitely be more brilliant than it is now."
Li Zhi's words were considered to be painting a cake for Yu Zhining.
At present, he can't bring out anything decent to reward or comfort people.
But if you draw a cake, you can just take advantage of his position as the crown prince.
After seeing this benefit again, Li Zhi has become more and more skillful in using his cake painting skills.
"Although the old ministers of the court meeting today participated normally, they would probably be free in the next few days.
The old minister will go back to the mansion and deal with some important matters first."
When Yu Zhining thought of asking someone to give him a black-haired man, he suddenly felt much worse.
"No problem, Master Yu, please rest for half a month in the mansion and handle the family affairs well."
At this time, Li Zhi naturally knew what to say.
However, this cannot change the tragedy of Yu's family.
