Inside the Heyu Hall.
Even though the outside world was already stormy, Li Tai remained calm and calm.
Every day I either practice calligraphy in the study or go to the courtyard to drink tea.
Seeing him in such a state, Xiao Dezi felt a little flustered.
He looked straight at Li Tai and said, "Your Highness, do you want me to do something?"
"Need not."
Li Tai said calmly: "You just need to watch here."
Hearing this, Xiao Dezi not only raised his head and glanced at Li Tai.
Then, he lowered his head and said, "But Your Highness, there are already rumors spreading outside..."
"That doesn't matter."
"These things are nothing to me."
Li Taixiao was confident, and in this confidence, there was an indescribable coldness.
At that moment, Xiao Dezi felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and there was an indescribable chill all over his body.
To be honest, as he worked with Li Tai for longer and longer, he became more and more aware of the terror of his master.
This Li Tai's scheming house is really too deep.
Even he, who had grown up with Li Tai, still couldn't figure out his master's character.
He was really panicking now.
He was really afraid that one day the incident would come to light and he would be pushed out by Li Tai to take the blame.
Of course, he was also afraid that Li Tai would discover his secret.
See that look on his face.
Li Tai suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, are you afraid?"
"No...no."
Xiao Dezi quickly lowered his head.
See him like that.
Li Tai smiled, very happily.
He stood up straight, raised his hand and patted Xiao Dezi on the shoulder, saying: "Don't worry, as long as I'm fine, you'll be fine."
"You just need to follow me wholeheartedly, and I guarantee that you will have a position in the future that you can't even imagine today."
After hearing this, Xiao Dezi immediately knelt on the ground, his head pressed tightly to the ground and said: "I don't dare. I just want to serve His Highness in a good life. I have never thought about my status."
"Now, you can think about it."
After Li Tai chuckled, he walked straight back to his bedroom without saying anything.
…
Assassination that day.
Li Shimin specifically ordered Liu Min to keep the assassin alive.
His purpose in doing this was nothing more than to hear what he wanted to hear from the mouths of these assassins.
Liu Min did not dare to disobey Li Shimin's orders and left several assassins alive.
But what no one expected was.
After being imprisoned, these assassins, without exception, all spoke in the same voice, saying that the mastermind behind the assassination was none other than Miles.
And this really made Li Shimin very angry.
That day, he got furious in the court and said angrily: "It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous."
"Do these people regard me as a three-year-old baby?"
"What happened that day was so dangerous. If Qian'er hadn't sacrificed his life to fight, I'd probably have to tell him where he was."
"But these people today actually said that the mastermind behind this was Qian'er. This is really ridiculous."
After hearing these words, the ministers in the audience looked at me and I looked at you, but no one said anything.
After a long time, Wei Zheng stood up and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, since the assassin has confessed, why not call His Highness here for questioning."
"what?"
Li Shimin looked over attentively: "Do you also suspect that Qian'er did this?"
Wei Zheng said nothing.
But not saying anything means that he acquiesced.
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Are you so clueless? Are the injuries on Qian'er's body all fake?"
"Furthermore, those assassins clearly went for him and not for me. How could he have planned this?"
"Did he find an assassin himself to kill himself?"
He was really speechless now.
He was a little confused now, whether he was right to let Wei Zheng be the prime minister in the first place.
If he is wrong, his achievements over the years are indeed not small. The success of the Tang Dynasty is absolutely related to his ability to subdue the Shandong family.
But if he is right, this guy has made frequent mistakes in recent years, and he has been targeting his own son.
To be honest, Li Shimin now wants to kick Wei Zheng to death.
And what Wei Zheng said next almost made Li Shimin so angry that he vomited blood.
Wei Zheng replied unhurriedly: "It is also possible..."
Why is this possible?
Is his son a fool?
How stupid it is to call an assassin to kill you.
Then, some ministers also took sides.
For example, Dai Zhou stood on the opposite side of Li Chengqian during the peace talks earlier.
He stood up at this time and said: "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about who will benefit if you succeed in assassinating your Majesty?"
"Since ancient times, father's inheritance is inherited by son, and family inheritance must be inherited by the eldest son. If the assassination of His Majesty is successful, then the throne will be his."
"To take a step back, even if the assassination of His Majesty fails, he will still have a reputation for risking his life to save others."
"In this case, isn't His Highness the most suspect?"
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately attracted the support of a large number of people.
"Yes, Your Majesty, His Highness King Qin is the most suspicious at this time."
"Your Majesty, I suggest that we bring His Highness the King of Qin over now and let him explain it in person."
Li Shimin was really so angry with this guy that he was speechless.
Not to mention the unprofitable things.
Just talking about becoming the prince, how many times had he persuaded Li Chengqian openly or secretly?
But did Li Chengqian ever agree?
Moreover, Li Shimin could also see that Li Chengqian was really resistant to becoming emperor.
If not, he wouldn't have been able to lay out those series of tricks to make Li Chengqian step into the trap step by step, making it impossible to exit.
But now, these people actually said that Li Chengqian wanted to murder him for the throne.
This is really ridiculous and ridiculous.
What's even more ridiculous is that they actually thought that Li Chengqian's heroic fight that day was staged.
He had fought against those assassins before.
Those people are all first-class dead soldiers, and they have obviously undergone long-term training.
And Li Chengqian's every move is almost under his nose. Where does he have the time to train dead soldiers?
Where does he have the time to do these things?
Now, Li Shimin is too lazy to talk nonsense to these people.
He straightened his face and said: "If you want to identify King Qin, bring out the evidence. If there is no evidence, no one can mention this matter in front of me."
After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Changsun Wuji: "Changsun Wuji!"
"I'm here!"
Changsun Wuji handed over and stepped out.
Li Shimin raised his head and said, "I order you to remove Wei Zheng from his post and take over the case personally."
After hearing this, Changsun Wuji did not hesitate and said: "My lord, I obey..."
"and……"
Li Shimin glanced at Wei Zheng and said, "Prime Minister Wei has worked really hard these past few days. Let's go home and rest for a few days."
"As for the position of right servant, let General Li Ji take over temporarily..."
Hearing this, the surrounding ministers were shocked.
What's going on?
Li Shimin demoted Wei Zheng?
And this was obviously Li Shimin's attitude towards them.
If you are such a bitch and talks nonsense in front of me, stop hanging out in the court.
