Wang Defa's son is called Wang Xie. He is dark and thin, with big and bright eyes.
"This is not a legacy." Li Zhiyun read Wang Defa's suicide note and his eyes fell on Wang Xie.
Wang Xiedao: "As long as His Royal Highness the King of Chu is willing to help me, I will personally hand over the account books."
"You misunderstood." Li Zhiyun smiled lightly.
What he actually meant when he said that was that he thought the accounting books were a hot potato.
"I have a question. Why didn't you go to someone else and come to me instead? Your father, I personally ordered the escort to Chang'an. Logically speaking, I am jointly and severally responsible for your father's death. You came here.
It’s unjustifiable for me, my enemy, to make the decision.”
Wang Xie said bitterly: "My father's death has nothing to do with the king. On that day, my father was ready to surrender to the king, but someone refused!"
Li Zhiyun lowered his eyes slightly, sat down slowly, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"Wang Xie, the person you want to sue is the Chang'an Order. This matter is not trivial. I will go on an expedition soon. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."
"Your Highness, don't you want to know who is behind it to prevent His Highness from attacking Nanzheng?"
"There is no basis for what you say." Li Zhiyun said: "Without evidence, I don't believe anything."
Wang Xie was immediately disheartened. He never expected that the King of Chu would be so cowardly and without any curiosity. Originally, he thought he could use the conflict between the King of Chu and the Dugu family to borrow the power of the King of Chu to overturn his father's case.
.
But King Chu's performance was far beyond his expectations.
"It turns out you are all in the same boat." Wang Xie said angrily.
"How dare you!" Li Zhen stepped forward and shouted angrily, "How dare you offend the king!"
How could Li Zhiyun not understand Wang Xie's little thoughts? In Chang'an, Wang Xie had no relatives and no one could help him. And he was one of the people involved in the case.
Li Zhiyun had reason to believe that Wang Defa's suicide note was more than that. It was very likely that Wang Defa told Wang Xie before surrendering that the Dugu family secretly gave Li Zhiyun small shoes to wear.
And Wang Xie wanted to use this matter to help him.
"Okay, forget it." Li Zhiyun interrupted Li Zhen and looked at Wang Xie, "What you said is not trivial. It is difficult for me to help you without evidence, but I can help you meet a person. If he is willing to help you,
You might succeed."
"who?"
"Prince."
"Prince?" Wang Xie swallowed, "Your Highness, are you telling the truth?"
Li Zhiyun sneered, "Wang Xie, you are alone now in my palace of Prince Chu. Do you think it is necessary for me to deceive you?"
Wang Xie quickly shook his head.
"Okay, I will take you to see Wang Xie. As for whether you can convince the prince, it depends on your own luck."
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty!" Wang Xie knelt on the ground with a plop and said, "If I can overturn the case for my father, I will remember your kindness for the rest of my life."
"Okay, you go down and have a rest." After saying that, Li Zhiyun gave Li Zhen a look, and the latter understood and took Wang Xie down.
After they left, Li Zhiyun clapped his hands, and Xue Shou and Du Ruhui, who were hiding behind the screen, came out.
"How much truth and how much falsehood do you think Wang Xie said?"
Du Ruhui said: "Half truth and half false. It is true that Wang Xie wants revenge, but it is false that he does not hate His Highness. But he also understands that at present, he can only get attention by relying on His Highness. If his guess is correct, the Dugu family must be looking everywhere
He. This time, he took the risk to come to the Prince of Chu's Mansion, firstly to see the king, and secondly because he wanted to drag the king into trouble."
"How to say?"
"If the king does not help him, when the news of his departure from the Chu Palace reaches the ears of the Dugu family, the king will be implicated. The Dugu family will think that the account books are in the hands of the king."
"What a good boy, you are very thoughtful." Li Zhiyun smiled.
Du Ruhui said: "It is right for the king to control Wang Xie. If something goes wrong, he can be put under house arrest."
Li Zhiyun nodded and asked again: "What do you think about the account books?"
Xue Shou cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Regardless of whether the account books are true or false, Your Majesty cannot touch them. Dugu Zhen is the prime minister of the current dynasty and a hero of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty must not offend him."
"My subordinates also mean the same thing." Du Ruhui said: "Although there is indeed something fishy about Nanzheng, Your Majesty, it is not appropriate to delve into this matter."
Li Zhiyun stood up and walked back and forth in the hall, then stopped for a moment.
"Then do you think I want to take him to see the prince?"
Du Ruhui said in astonishment: "Your Highness, do you really want to help him?"
He didn't understand why his king wanted to take over this mess.
"No?" Li Zhiyun asked.
"It's not impossible, it's just unnecessary." Du Ruhui said, "Your Majesty, you can ignore this matter and just sit back and watch."
Li Zhiyun shook his head and said with a smile: "Keming, since you know that this Wang Xie wants to drag me into trouble, he may also prepare a backup plan. For example, if he is trapped in the Prince Chu's Mansion and cannot get out, someone outside may make other moves.
.In other words, I have already intervened by agreeing to meet Wang Xie."
Du Ruhui suddenly broke into sweat. What he said did make sense.
Xue Shou muttered: "In this case, he must go to see the prince. But my subordinate has a suggestion."
"you say."
"Your Highness cannot take him directly to see the prince. He must have someone else act as an intermediary."
“Who’s the middleman?”
Xue Shou said: "Wang Gui."
"Wang Gui?" Li Zhiyun said hesitantly: "He belongs to the prince, and he is very vigilant. How can he not see that we want to divert trouble to the east?"
Xue Shou was about to speak, but stopped when he saw Du Ruhui.
Du Ruhui also noticed that Xue Shou was a little wary of his presence, so he cupped his hands and said, "I have other things to deal with, please leave."
"There's no rush." Li Zhiyun pulled Du Ruhui and looked at Xue Shou, "Keming is one of our own. You can say anything. I believe him."
Hearing this, Du Ruhui lowered his head in silence.
Xue Shou nodded and said: "Your Majesty, it is precisely because Wang Gui is the prince's son that he will definitely seize this matter to attack and annihilate Dugu Zhen."
"Why?"
"Because his surname is Wang, Taiyuan Wang, one of the five surnames Qiwang."
In an instant, lightning flashed through his mind, and Li Zhiyun had an epiphany.
This is no longer a personal struggle, but a struggle between two behemoths that lasted for hundreds of years, and even lasted until the Tang Dynasty a hundred years later.
Do you know why Hebei is so chaotic?
Do you know why the super immortal Xiao Qiang Liu Heitai always jumps out to rebel?
Do you know about the Anshi Rebellion?
The root of everything is the struggle between two giants.
Guanlong Military Group, Shandong Gentlemen Group.
These two behemoths started from the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties, continued to the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Northern Qi Dynasty, and then to the Tang Dynasty and Dou Jiande and Liu Heitai.
Until the period of Emperor Xuanzong who married his daughter-in-law, and the Anshi Rebellion.
Since ancient times, there have been many heroes from Zhao and Yan, and until the end of the Tang Dynasty, Hebei has never been quiet. The heroes from Shandong, who are of Northern Qi blood, have been making trouble secretly.
And why they can cause trouble, you have to ask the Boling Cui family, the Qinghe Cui family, the Fan Yang Lu family, the Zhaojun Li family, etc.
Xue Shou's meaning is very obvious. Wang Gui will definitely seize such an opportunity and bite the Dugu family hard.
Li Zhiyun slowly let go of Du Ruhui and said, "How should we inform Wang Gui?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates have their own concerns."
Li Zhiyun was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, write me a statement about your thoughts."
