Li Shimin was back. When such news came back, it immediately caused an undercurrent in Chang'an City. Chang'an City, which had finally calmed down, became chaotic again. Previously, Li Jiancheng was frantically wooing important ministers in the court. Of course, he suddenly received financial assistance from Wanhe The reason, and more importantly, was to take advantage of the fact that Li Shimin was not in Chang'an. But now that Li Shimin has returned to Chang'an, Li Jiancheng did not dare to be too public. The previous practice of wooing important officials in the court naturally stopped. Come down.
After Li Shimin came back, he didn't seem to do anything. After resting for a few days in the Prince of Qin's Mansion, he went to the Prince of Tang's Mansion to report the situation of the battle to Li Yuan. There was no more movement. But Li Shimin's silence was... It made Li Jiancheng unable to figure out Li Shimin's intentions. He could only frequently summon his cronies to discuss continuously. The undercurrent of the struggle on behalf of Li Tang's future heirs was also brewing in Chang'an City.
After learning that Li Shimin was back, Wan He also summoned Du Ruhui and others for urgent discussions in the mansion. Wan He did not dare to underestimate Li Shimin, the future emperor of the ages. However, he and Du Ruhui discussed it for a long time. But now Li Shimin didn't make any move at all. No matter how powerful Du Ruhui was, he couldn't guess what Li Shimin wanted to do.
After getting Du Ruhui's answer, Wan He was still a little unwilling to give up. Sitting in the study, Wan He stared at Du Ruhui closely and asked, "Keming, is there really no way to guess what Li Shimin will do next?"
Du Ruhui smiled bitterly. He spread his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I am not a god. I can do calculations. I don't know anything about this Li Shimin. How can I make a judgment? Besides, Li Shimin has not made any moves at the moment. I There is no way to judge what he wants to do next. Prince, please don't embarrass your subordinates. They think that given the current situation, even if Li Shimin makes any moves, they will all be aimed at Li Jiancheng. Wouldn't this be more in line with our previous plan? Why should the prince be too worried?"
Du Ruhui said so. What else could Wan He say? He could only lower his head in distress. Although Du Ruhui had some truth to what he said, but for some reason, Wan He always felt that Li Shimin would come to him. At this moment, Wan He's In his mind, he kept recalling the Li Shimin he met as a kid in Luoyang. At that time, Li Shimin was already quite courageous. Now, after so many years, he, a playboy, has become the King of Liang. .God knows how far Li Shimin will grow.
Although Du Ruhui didn't know why Wan He was so worried about Li Shimin, as a subordinate of Wan He, he naturally had to share his worries. Du Ruhui also said quickly: "Since the prince is so worried about Li Shimin, I have an idea. Why don't you go with the prince?" Find Li Jiancheng and ask him to find out about Li Shimin. For example, ask Li Jiancheng to entertain Li Shimin. As long as Li Shimin doesn't intend to sit back and die, he will definitely take action."
When Du Ruhui said this, Wan He's eyes suddenly lit up. And just when he was about to nod in agreement, suddenly there was a knock on the study door. Du Hao's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Li Shimin sent someone to see you. Your Majesty."
"Uh." Hearing this, Wan He was immediately startled. What did he really mean? How could he be so good? Li Shimin would send someone to find him. What if Li Shimin discovered his identity? Wan He's head could not be saved. Suddenly Wan He felt panicky. He jumped up and shouted: "Quick. Quick. Ke Ming. Help me change my clothes. Quick."
Du Ruhui also didn't expect that Li Shimin would suddenly send someone to look for Wan He. He immediately helped Wan He put on the fat body. Fortunately, Wan He's face had not been taken off. So Du Ruhui helped Wan He. After putting on the clothes, there were no flaws. After checking again, Du Ruhui did not forget to comfort Wan He with a few words and helped Wan He calm down. Then Wan He took Du Ruhui with him. . He quickly opened the door, waved to Du Hao who was standing at the door, and walked towards the front yard together.
When he arrived at the gate, he saw two generals in armor and more than a dozen sergeants standing at the gate from a distance. Wan He's heart suddenly jumped. Those must be the people sent by Li Shimin. Wan He immediately tried his best. A smile appeared on his face, and he quickly stepped forward, smiled at the two generals and said, "Hahahaha. These two must be generals sent by His Highness King Qin. Oh my god. They are really powerful. I have long heard that His Highness the King of Qin has many powerful generals. I am going to see you today. It is better to meet him than to be famous. Ah, why are all the generals standing here? How rude. Please come in quickly. Please come in quickly." Wan While flattering, He invited the two generals into the house.
"Humph." One of the generals, who had fair skin and was clearly from a wealthy family, snorted coldly. He looked at Wan He with eyes full of contempt and ridicule. On the other hand, the attitude of the other young general was quite gentle. Wan He clasped his fists and said: "This must be Mr. Qian. I am Liu Hongji. This is General Dugu Yanyun. We are all under the command of His Highness King Qin. This time we are here on the orders of His Highness King Qin. This is Mr. Jiu Wen, His Highness the King of Qin. In the name of Mr. Qin, I specially come to invite you to a banquet at Prince Qin’s Mansion.”
It's over. Hongmen Banquet. When Wan He heard Liu Hongji's intention, the first thought in Wan He's mind was the words "There is no such thing as a good banquet. Fortunately, Wan He's city government has also practiced a lot over the years. Only then can he suppress the changes in his heart." Wan He didn't show it on his face. Soon Wan He calmly analyzed it clearly. Li Shimin probably hadn't found out his identity yet. If that was the case, he wouldn't say anything nonsense. He would just send someone to arrest him. Thinking of this, Wan He felt more at ease. He smiled and said to Liu Hongji: "Well, His Highness the King of Qin invited me. I am very grateful. However, I don't know why His Highness the King of Qin invited me this time. Woolen cloth."
"Huh." Dugu Yanyun snorted again. He looked at Wan He with a look of impatience on his face and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Qin invited you to the banquet. That is a great honor for you. You are still nagging. What? You really don’t know what’s good or bad.”
Dugu Yanyun had been staying in Chang'an before. So he knew very well that the damn fat man in front of him was the reason why the Qin Palace was in crisis. So Dugu Yanyun didn't like Wan He no matter how he looked at it. If it weren't for Li Shimin There was a strict order before. I'm afraid he would have taken action to teach this damn fat man a lesson.
"Uh. That's. That's..." Wan He glanced at Dugu Yanyun strangely. He thought to himself. It seems that he has never seen this boy before. That means he has not offended him. Why is this boy talking? It was just like this young master killed his father. He wanted to go back and think about it. Wan He still restrained himself from getting angry and said a few words with a smile. But in his heart, he had scolded Dugu Yanyun's ancestors for eight generations.
"General Dugu." Seeing Dugu's rude words, Liu Hongji also glanced at him and warned him. In fact, in his heart, he didn't take the businessman named Qian Que too seriously. The class hierarchy of scholars, farmers, industrialists and merchants was early. It has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Most people look down on these businessmen from the bottom of their hearts. However, since Li Shimin wanted to entertain this person and specifically asked not to be rude, Liu Hongji could only patiently say to Wan He: "This time, King Qin can The King of Tang also rewarded the King of Qin with hundreds of loads of fine wine for the triumphant victory. The King of Qin did not want to keep it to himself, so he invited the dignitaries of Chang'an to the banquet. The King of Qin learned that Mr. was a man of the hour in Chang'an recently, so he specially sent two of us to invite Mr. Attend a banquet.”
Hearing what Liu Hongji said, Wan He finally understood that Wan He was not the only person invited to Daqing. Now Wan He felt relieved. But when he looked back, he thought that he was standing with Li Jiancheng after all. If he rashly attends Li Shimin's banquet, will it cause Li Jiancheng's dissatisfaction? Thinking of this, Wan He quickly asked: "General Liu, I don't know. I wonder if the prince is among the guests invited by King Qin."
Dugu Yanyun frowned, and the impatience on his face became even worse. He shouted in a deep voice: "Asshole, King Qin invites you to the banquet with good intentions. Not only do you not appreciate it, but you actually push back. It's obvious that you don't want to give King Qin face. Humph. If you go today, let it go. If you don't go, I will tie you up." After saying that, Dugu Yanyun reached out and grabbed Wan He. It was clear that he wanted to capture Wan He.
"Bold." Just when Dugu Yanyun reached out to grab Wan He, an angry shout came from behind Wan He. But it was Tai Shi Feng who had been guarding the gate. Tai Shi Feng had already told Wan He when Dugu Yan Yun When he made the rude words, he was already furious. Now seeing that Dugu Yanyun dared to attack Wan He, how could he hold it back? He shouted angrily and rushed forward with a lunge, grabbing Dugu Yan directly. Cloud's wrist.
"Yeah." Seeing Tai Shifeng suddenly take action, Liu Hongji, who was standing next to him, also raised his brows. Liu Hongji also saw Duguyanyun's action before, but did not stop him. In his opinion, it was just a businessman invited by the King of Qin. He was giving him face. Even if he was arrested, no one dared to say anything. But when Tai Shifeng grabbed Dugu Yanyun's wrist as soon as he made a move, Liu Hongji was also startled by Tai Shifeng's actions. As the saying goes, an expert knows the way. As soon as Tai Shifeng made a move, Liu Hongji could tell that Tai Shifeng was very skilled. He was definitely a master.
At this time, Dugu Yanyun was grabbed by Tai Shifeng's wrist. He was stunned for a moment. Then he realized that he had been restrained by a businessman's men. He immediately became angry and shouted loudly: "You bastard, give it to me. Get away." He said, and kicked forward fiercely. But it was kicked towards Tai Shifeng's chest. This kick was fast and hard. An ordinary person would definitely be seriously injured if he was hit by this kick. Duguyan Yun wanted to teach this servant who dared to offend him a lesson.
