An hour later, in the imperial study room of the palace, Li Kai stood respectfully and watched Da Xia Zi handle the memorial.
The entire imperial study was quiet, with the occasional sound of reviewing memorials coming from the room.
"How did things go?"
After a long time, Da Xiazi finally spoke and looked at Li Kai.
Li Kai's performance this time made him a little disappointed.
But after all, he was his most trusted minister, so he forgave this failure.
"All the assassins are already interrogating them, but they are very tough. It will take some time to pry open their mouths."
"As for An Guogong, it's very quiet, without any movement."
Li Kai answered respectfully.
"Is he so calm?"
Da Xiazi was a little surprised. Under such circumstances, could Ning Yuan still be able to sit still?
All his people were lost, Qin Yun was unscathed, and if the marriage was successfully completed, he would lose a lot of interests.
And all those assassins were arrested. Even if Ning Yuan doesn't understand the specific situation now, he should realize that he is being plotted by the current emperor and Duke Cheng.
Under this situation, Ning Yuan could still wait calmly.
Now it seems that I still underestimated this so-called An Guogong.
These old guys still have something.
If you want to plot against them, you really need a lot of planning.
"After all, he is Duke An. Now that he has realized the problem, he will naturally not act rashly. He should plan something at home now."
Li Kai shook his head slightly, he was also very worried about his opponent Ning Yuan.
This plan can be said to be the best opportunity. Ning Yuan was carried away by anger and had no sense at all.
Under such circumstances, they can plot against Ning Yuan very well.
Unfortunately, the plan failed.
This made Ning Yuan aware of the problem and he would naturally take precautions.
Next, they want to deal with Ning Yuan, but it will take a certain amount of time.
"But this world still belongs to me. If I want him to die, he must die."
Da Xiazi said calmly, looking at Li Kai, the meaning was self-evident.
"Of course he wants to die. For the sake of His Majesty's dominance, he has no choice."
Li Kaixin tensed up and said quickly, this was not just a simple explanation of something, this was also the emperor's warning to himself.
No matter what they do, this world belongs to the emperor after all. If the king wants his ministers to die, they must die.
"Yes. Interrogate them quickly. No matter what method you use, just make them talk."
"I must swing this sword out. Otherwise, those old guys will laugh at me."
As he said this, Da Xia Zi showed a ruthless expression.
For him, this time it was all his plan. If it failed, it would be very difficult for him to get over it.
In particular, those old guys are all staring at me. This position has never been so stable.
"yes!"
Li Kai nodded, indicating that he understood.
"What about your son-in-law? If you are not satisfied, I can order the cancellation for you."
After talking about these things, Da Xiazi also began to ask about Li Kai's family affairs.
He is also very concerned about the female general Li Ruyi. Such a general is no less than the military gods of the past. He is not willing to let Li Ruyi have any accidents.
General Li Ruyi will also be needed in future wars.
"Since it has become a foregone conclusion, I will not regret it. Besides, this will not be good for Ruyi's reputation."
"Your Majesty's orders will also attract criticism, so I won't bother Your Majesty."
Li Kai is very cunning, so naturally he won't say much about Qin Yun's situation.
After all, nothing has been completely revealed now. If I brag too much, I'm afraid it will give the Great Xiazi some ideas.
"If that's the case, then Duke Cheng can make the arrangements himself."
Da Xiazi didn't say anything more, but he had already guessed something. Qin Yun seemed to be quite capable.
Otherwise, Li Kai would not be allowed to change his mind.
According to yesterday's report, Qin Yun seems to be very good in martial arts. We will find a way to get him into the army.
Naturally, he did not listen to all Li Kai's reports, but also had some spies he trained to investigate some things for him.
"Does he have any ambitions? If he wants to be an official, I can also reward him with a position. After all, I will never treat meritorious officials badly."
Li Kaixin was moved and immediately said: "I also asked about this matter. He said he wanted to join the army and serve His Majesty."
"Oh? I remember that his martial arts is pretty good, so let him join the army. Duke Cheng Guo won't be reluctant to part with him, right?"
Da Xia Zi suddenly became interested.
This is naturally the result of Li Kai's words. He knows this Majesty very well.
To serve the imperial court, Da Xiazi would at most give a few words of praise, but if he intended to serve his majesty, it would be completely different.
Controlling the military has always been one of His Majesty's worries.
As the leader of a dynasty, what he wanted to control most after he came to power was the army.
This is the foundation of the country, and due to some battles in Daxia that year, the army was in the hands of nobles, but it was in the hands of the emperor, who did not control much.
Only the Forbidden Army and the Royal Guards in Kyoto were completely controlled by the emperor, and the rest more or less had some shadows of nobles.
The most important ones are these princes. They control the largest army, and they are also a worry for the emperor.
If they directly support their own troops, this will definitely be a trouble.
And this time their plan was also to gain control of the army, and An Guogong was the first target to be operated on.
Now that Li Kai is his own, he doesn't mind using some of the people around Li Kai. As long as they are newly promoted generals without those noble backgrounds, he is willing to use them.
Li Kai knew that the opportunity had come and immediately said: "Of course I'm willing to give it up. This kid has a good talent in martial arts and would be good to be a pioneer. Next time Ruyi goes on an expedition, I also want him to follow him."
“Firstly, it’s a bit of experience, and secondly, I can take care of Ruyi.”
Hearing this, the emperor looked at Li Kai in surprise and understood something.
"It seems that Duke Cheng Guo values Qin Yun very much. In this case, I will not treat him badly. As long as he can make military achievements in the future, I will definitely reward him."
"It's just that this military achievement must be more real. You know, I hate fraud the most."
"Of course I don't dare. It's just..."
Li Kai showed a hesitant look, as if he was still worried about something.
"Tell me, what's the problem?"
"The recruitment period has ended. Even if I want him to join the army, it will be difficult. His Majesty will not like it if he uses his identity, which makes me very distressed."
"In addition, An Guogong and others are also watching with eager eyes. I am worried that they will not give up."
