In the guest room of Wei Mansion, Li Ye took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Rules are rules, but if someone doesn't follow the rules, then you can't deal with him according to the rules."
Wei Jiansu smiled and said: "Did Du Hongjian really kill himself? I thought it was an excuse you made."
Li Ye shook his head and said: "Peng Haiyan told me that the body of the servant who assassinated Du Hongjian was found. After his investigation, he found that the servant was just a scoundrel with no martial arts skills. He took hundreds of dollars and ran away, betraying the murderer.
Guo, he was also exterminated in the end."
"Then how do you know that Du Hongjian was also killed by Zhu Tao?"
"poison!"
Li Ye said calmly: "Peng Haiyan tested the poison arrow used to assassinate me and found that the poison was exactly the same as the poison used in the Du Hongjian case. And according to the confession, the goal of these assassins in Luoyang was not to deal with me, but the civil servant group, including Pei
Xiangguo, Xiangguo Cui, my father, and even Duke Wei, Du Hongjian was the first person he attacked, but my arrival made them change their plans and dig their own graves."
Wei Jiansu snorted heavily, "The real manipulator behind the scenes is the eunuch!"
Wei Jiansu said to Li Ye again: "Whether he assassinated the emperor's eldest grandson, or assassinated Du Hongjian, or assassinated His Highness, the person behind it was Li Fuguo. Li Fuguo was good at using strange poisons. These poisons were provided by him, and the assassination methods were also Li Fuguo's style.
, used the feudal town to assassinate us, but we were helpless. Thanks to His Majesty's killing and establishing his power this time, he greatly shocked these young people, and we can live a peaceful life for a few days.
But I am very worried about Zhu Si's revenge, especially Zhu Si will attack your parents, which I can foresee."
Li Ye nodded, "This is the principle of eradicating evil. If the evil thieves are not eliminated, they will take revenge and make it impossible to prevent them."
"Then what are your plans, Your Highness?"
Li Ye pondered for a moment and said: "I want the Hidden Wings of the Dugu family to protect my parents!"
Wei Jiansu shook his head, "It's just an ordinary man's strategy, let's take advantage of it!"
Li Ye cupped his fists and said, "Please give me some advice, Duke Wei!"
Wei Jiansu used his crutch to draw two circles, one large and one small, on the ground, and then drew a line and said lightly: "The small one is Yunzhou, the big one is Youzhou, and the middle line is Feihuxing. If His Highness wins Yunzhou,
Fighting Fei Huxing is like putting a sword on the back of Zhu Si's neck. Even if he has overwhelming hatred, he can only bear it in his stomach."
"What will the court say?"
"At this time, do you still care about the imperial court? Besides, Yunzhou is not Taiyuan. Taiyuan is the royal family's son, and Yunzhou is the stepmother's. As long as you give money, the imperial court will definitely take it for the money and understand your difficulties."
Li Ye smiled slightly and said: "I don't know how to seize the imperial land by force. Why not just rent it for a few years?"
Wei Jiansu snorted, "We have even taken Chang'an, how can you still take less?"
Li Ye scratched his head and said, "I remembered, I still have something urgent to do. I'll take my leave first!"
"Your Highness, please go slowly. I won't see you off anymore."
"No need! No need! We will meet again later." Li Ye's voice had already left the atrium.
Li Ye's cavalry team arrived at Wan'an Temple again, and the Dugu brothers had a detailed chat with Li Ye in the back hall.
Dugu Lie nodded and said: "The emperor is seriously ill, and there are all kinds of mistresses who want to mess up the Tang Dynasty and fish in troubled waters. Your Highness kills Zhu Tao to establish his power. It is indeed a huge shock to these mistresses. I believe they will put it down and don't dare to mess up again."
Dugu Ming also said: "I know that His Highness is worried that Zhu Si will take revenge. Don't worry, Your Highness, I will arrange Hidden Wings to protect your father and your father in secret."
"Thank you, uncle!"
Li Ye pondered for a moment and then asked: "When do you plan to get up and go to Chang'an?"
Dugu Lie said slowly: "We will leave early the day after tomorrow. We will not come back after we return to Chang'an. Only your third uncle will come back."
Li Ye knew that Dugu Ming came back for his own sake, so he cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, uncle!"
Dugu Ming smiled and said: "It is impossible for the Dugu family to escape from the imperial court intact. We must leave an eye and an ear. I will keep my filial piety for my mother in Luoyang!"
Li Ye was startled, "Could it be that Big Brother Jinyang?"
Dugu Lie nodded silently, "He has submitted his resignation. All Dugu children in Chang'an, except your third uncle, must return to Chang'an to observe filial piety. I'm sorry that I can't help His Highness this time!"
Li Ye asked again: "Who will take over as the general of the Longwu Army?"
"If nothing else happens, it will be Peng Wang Li Ji. The emperor has already had this idea."
Dugulie said calmly: "Don't underestimate the emperor. Although he is lying on the hospital bed, he is still secretly manipulating. He pushed Queen Zhang out and asked Queen Zhang to attract the eunuch's attention. He will secretly make arrangements
."
"Isn't the emperor bent on establishing Li Xi, the king of Yue?"
Dugu Lie still shook his head, "The premise for the emperor to make the King of Yue the crown prince is that he himself will be in power for twenty years. In that way, the mediocrity and cowardice of the King of Yue will not threaten his throne. But if the emperor feels that his fate
It's not long, then he will no longer consider the king of Yue. He will definitely establish another son. Although he doesn't know who it is, the possibility of Peng Wang Li Ji is very high. Let him control the 30,000 dragon military army, which is to give him
His capital to ascend the throne."
Li Ye pondered for a while and said: "Then why not just establish Li Wei as the crown prince and control the Longwu Army at the same time. Moreover, it is justified and he can never get on the stage with conspiracy."
Dugu Ming smiled and said: "Your Highness! The emperor's thoughts are difficult for ordinary people to fathom!"
"snort!"
Dugu Lie snorted, "What's so elusive? He just has that little thought. He's just afraid that if Li Guang takes control of the military and becomes the prince, he will launch a coup and ascend to the throne like him. This is their family's tradition!"
At this time, a family member reported at the door, "Master, Peng Haiyan wants to see you!"
Li Ye glanced at Dugu Lie, who smiled and said: "Peng Haiyan is my man, and His Highness can trust him completely."
Dugu Lie immediately said: "Invite him in!"
Not long after, Peng Haiyan walked in in a hurry. When he saw Li Ye, he was a little embarrassed, but he still saluted respectfully, "See you, Your Highness!"
Li Ye smiled slightly and said, "Are you coming to see me or my father-in-law?"
Peng Haiyan scratched his head, "Actually, I came to see His Highness, and then I have something to discuss with Dugu Gong."
"Please sit down!"
Peng Haiyan sat down, bowed and said: "Your Highness, I have checked the military crossbow code and found that the crossbow is the equipment of the Plum Blossom Guards. Secondly, the poison on the poison arrow is exactly the same as the poison in the Du Xiangguo case and the Huang Changsun case.
Basically, it is certain that Li Fuguo is behind the scenes."
Dugu Ming nodded, "When the crown prince case occurred, the Zhu brothers had just seized power. It is impossible for them to be involved. Then, both Tian Chengsi and the Zhu brothers were Li Fuguo's borrowed swords."
Peng Haiyan added: "But in this case, I discovered something strange."
"What's weird?"
"Have you noticed, Your Highness? We checked and found that everything is related to the Goguryeo people, but in the end it has no connection with the Goguryeo people. Doesn't Your Highness find it strange?"
Li Ye frowned, "Isn't it because the Khitan sent sixty Goguryeo assassins that triggered a series of incidents related to Goguryeo?"
Peng Haiyan shook his head, "Your Highness, things are not that simple!"
