"So, you want to frame Li Linfu and accuse him of adultery?"
Li Kuo already understood Yang Xuan's thoughts and asked in a deep voice.
"That's not true. After all, we have obtained the confessions of the two of them, and the old thief can't deny it." After Li Kuo revealed his dirty thoughts, Yang Xuan smiled brightly: "The old thief took risks for the sake of the family's interests.
The idea of obtaining violence is very convincing, and coupled with the confessions of those two people, His Majesty will be suspicious even if he does not fully believe them."
In Yang Xuan's view, the first step to remove a powerful official like Li Linfu is to make His Majesty suspicious of him. Only in this way can the many party members who are attached to him be shaken. Otherwise, if you want to use your own power
Fighting against an entire tightly knit interest group is like flying a moth into a flame.
"What will you do with those two people?" Li Kuo shook his head. He had already seen that what Yang Xuan asked the two to identify was not the truth. The reason why the two 'spoke' was probably more for their own safety. After all, defacement
Others can survive, and few people will keep their integrity for the sake of illusory benevolence, justice and morality.
"They, hehe, I will bring their children into the Yang family as domestic slaves."
Yang Xuan snorted softly and continued: "As for them, as my fellow citizens of the Tang Dynasty, they have acted as traitors to the enemy and betrayed the country. I will ask your majesty to kill them both according to law."
What! Li Kuo's mind was buzzing. He couldn't believe his ears! The two men followed Yang Xuan's instructions and told the 'truth'. He thought that Yang Xuan would at least come forward to save their lives.
, who knew that he would hear such ridiculous words.
"You said that you wanted to ask His Majesty to execute them, but they clearly followed your instructions..."
"General Li! Regardless of whether they did as I told them or not, they did secretly hoard a large amount of iron weapons and even weapons! If this matter is exposed, Li Linfu may not have any consequences, but they will be scapegoats.
The whole family was slaughtered and not even a single piece of incense was left! I am helping them by doing this!"
Yang Xuan was dissatisfied with the young man's attitude, and his tone suddenly increased a lot. He really didn't understand how his father could fancy such a stubborn general. There were many generals with his seniority and position in the Tang army.
Even if I really wanted to support him, I shouldn't have found such a stubborn boy to make him angry!
"Are you helping them?" Li Kuo sat down and shook his head: "That Huangfu Chendong seems to be very dissatisfied with your defeat. Can you guarantee that he will not retract his confession?"
Hearing this, Yang Xuan snorted coldly and said: "You don't have to worry about this. I have a hundred ways to shut him up." After a slight pause, Yang Xuan said: "Miss Shen'er, you still have to worry about it. After all, that's all.
It is the key to bringing down Li Linfu. As for this confession, it will have the greatest lethality only if it appears at the right time."
"I will take care of my affairs. I won't bother Mr. Yang. Farewell!" After experiencing this big scene, Li Kuo felt that his interest was waning, so he got up and walked out of the house.
At this moment, he even began to doubt whether the cooperation with the Yang family was correct. Both Shen'er and the two shopkeepers of Huiyuan Warehouse were innocent people. He actually indirectly sacrificed them in order to move Li Linfu down.
Are you cannibalizing people by doing this?
"General Li! Remember what Yang said, the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty is like a dining table. If you don't want to be eaten by others, you have to eat people! The more people you eat, the safer you will be. As long as you have three heads and six arms,
You have to pay attention to your surroundings, after all, the powerful people in this court don’t use knives to kill people!”
...
After returning from Yang Xuan's house, Li Kuo locked himself in the room and forced himself to forget what Yang Xuan said. But no matter how hard he tried, those cold, cruel but true words would stimulate his fragile heart over and over again. soul.
"Actually, it's nothing. Looking at the big families in the Tang Dynasty, which one doesn't have its own business or industry? For such a big family, with hundreds or even thousands of people, what do they eat and drink?"
"If you don't want to be eaten by others, you have to eat people! The more people you eat, the safer you will be."
"I will ask Your Majesty to execute them both according to law...I am helping them!"
These are the principles by which aristocratic families deal with things. They existed in ancient times and still exist today. If you don’t want to be eaten, you have to learn to eat people!
"Sir, the letter was just sent." Shen Liniang walked lightly into the study and handed a paper tube to the young man.
This paper tube was sent by Shen'er using a carrier pigeon. There must be some important information that needs to be informed to the boy. Li Kuo has always felt guilty about Shen'er. When Mrs. Guo Guo said that she was going to use Shen'er to get close to Li Linfu , the young man immediately clapped his legs and objected. Although Mrs. Guo Guo repeatedly emphasized that Shen'er had a big feud with the old thief and it was voluntary, the young man always thought that such an action was not done by a man.
However, now it seems that there is no better way to remove Li Linfu.
"Oh, it's Liniang." She took the paper tube, took out the crumpled letter, unfolded it, and a line of small words jumped into her eyes.
"In ten days, Li Linfu celebrates his birthday and will hold a banquet to invite hundreds of officials."
Li Kuo was shocked after saying a few words.
Li Linfu wants to live longer, Li Linfu wants to live longer...
After pondering for a long time, the young man slapped his thigh and said, "Is she reminding me that the time has come?" Yes, this is the opportunity they are waiting for. This is the perfect opportunity to move Li Linfu down!
Seeing the young man so excited, Shen Liniang asked doubtfully: "Sir, what happened?"
Li Kuo waved his hand and said: "Nothing, Prime Minister Li will have a birthday in ten days. I'm wondering if I should go and celebrate his birthday!"
This incident has hurt too many innocent people. Li Kuo did not want a good girl like Shen Liniang to be involved in it. He would naturally evade any matter related to Li Linfu.
"Oh." Shen Liniang was also of a noble nature. Seeing that Li Kuo didn't want to talk, she kept silent.
"By the way, Liniang. Please send someone to summon Yanji and Wuxin, and tell them that I want to have dinner with them tonight!"
Li Kuo thought about discussing this matter with the two of them, so he took this opportunity to break the awkward atmosphere.
"The two young men and the young master are really close brothers. To be honest, Liniang is a little jealous." Shen Liniang covered her jade lips and smiled: "I will send someone to call you right now, there will be no mistake. A big deal for the young master!”
ps: Today I am watching The Rise of Great Powers, and I miss the great Tang Dynasty that made our blood boil with excitement, and we still have no regrets despite hundreds of deaths. Get away from the code...
