Chunming Gate in the east of Chang'an City.
Four members of the hidden family finally arrived escorting Li Chengqian. They were also unsure whether they could escape this time.
I thought this was a very easy thing, but I didn't expect to meet a former prince of mud. Damn, this guy is simply stubborn.
The matter was exposed early before it was settled. It would be difficult to attack the former prince in the future.
"Okay, the war horse is here, let go of brother, and you can leave."
Li Shuwan had people clear out the ordinary people near Chunming Gate. The place had been strictly controlled. With Li Shuwan's wave of his hand, the army moved out of the way.
The four members of the Hidden World family looked at each other, mounted their horses, and drove away. Li Chengqian was also thrown to the ground, and he fell heavily.
Li Tai looked at the four retreating members of the hidden family with cold eyes, and he hated Li Shuwan deeply in his heart.
This damn woman ruined her good deeds today. If this woman hadn't come here, she could kill three birds with one stone, kill her eldest brother, and blame the third child.
"Princess Qin, although you saved my eldest brother, you personally let go of the rebels and traitors without even leaving any backup. What would you say if my father knew about this?"
Li Shuwan bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Your Highness, King Wu, is the life of the eldest brother more important, or is it more important to kill those four rebellious officials and traitors?"
Li Tai: "..."
After a moment, Li Tai cupped his hands and said, "Of course, brother's life is important."
"But after they released my eldest brother, why didn't you order the pursuit and kill those thieves?"
"Here, you are the only one who has the right to mobilize the imperial army, but you did not do so. You are derelict in your duty..."
Li Shuwan shook her head, King Wu has always been very shrewd, why is he so confused today?
When doing things in Prince Qin’s Mansion, I always take one step at a time and look at the next three steps. How do you know that Prince Qin’s Mansion is not prepared?
"Brother, are you okay?"
Li Chengqian was helped over, and he was also very annoyed. He had already withdrawn from the fight for the crown prince, and the fourth child actually wanted him dead!
"King Wu, although I am a commoner today, I am still your eldest brother. Do you really want your eldest brother to die?"
Li Tai said coldly: "Brother, please don't slander anyone. I'm trying my best to save you today, but the national interests outweigh everything else."
Li Chengqian shook his head, and the fourth devil was stunned!
Li Shuwan looked at Li Tai: "King Wu, why do you think I have no backup plan?"
"Give me one more time to burn the incense. After one stick of incense, they will get the head and they will naturally send it to the emperor."
"However, what you did today will probably make everyone in the world feel ashamed."
Li Tai: "..."
Li Tai was shocked, swallowed involuntarily, and looked at Li Shuwan seriously. We can't keep this woman!
What happened suddenly just now, she was actually able to make such a watertight arrangement, and she was so thoughtful...
He originally thought that the third child was not around, and did not regard Li Shuwan as his opponent. Unexpectedly, this woman was more difficult to deal with than the third child, and he unknowingly dug a big hole for himself.
"Oh? It turns out that the princess has already made arrangements. This actually makes the fourth child admire her. She is indeed a woman and a man."
"Hahaha, it's so good. No wonder my father can give the princess the right to mobilize a thousand imperial troops. My father is really wise."
While he was talking, a dozen cavalrymen in black galloped over from a distance, full of murderous intent.
When they arrived at the gate of the city, they all dismounted their horses. The leader bowed and said: "Princess, my subordinates have fulfilled their mission and killed the four thieves. Their heads are in the sacks at the back. It is not easy to watch here."
"Okay, go down and get them, one hundred guan for each person."
"Thank you, Princess!"
Li Tai was dumbfounded. He didn't expect the people from Prince Qin's Mansion to kill those four people so quickly. And these dozen cavalrymen in black looked like they were highly skilled in martial arts. But when the third child left, he clearly killed the four people from Prince Qin's Mansion. All the masters have been taken away!
"King Wu, do you want to check to see if they are the heads of the four thieves?"
Li Tai's face turned dark and he turned around and said, "Let's go..."
Li Tai led the people away, and Li Shuwan breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said, "Brother, it is the King of Qin who personally ordered me to protect your safety. Even if everyone in my palace, Prince Qin, is dead, I will protect you."
"From today on, I'm afraid you won't be able to open your wonton restaurant. How about you and your sister-in-law temporarily live in the World's Appreciation Room?"
"I have also made an explanation to the prince."
Li Chengqian had mixed feelings in his heart. Back then, he wanted to put his third brother ahead of his fourth brother, and even pushed Li Shuwan into the pit of fire. He didn't expect that his third brother and his wife would protect him so much...
Li Chengqian bowed and bowed deeply: "Li Chengqian will remember the kindness of the third child and the princess in his heart, but the wonton restaurant is my and my wife's hard work, and my wife and I will not give up."
"But please rest assured, the third child and the princess, and also tell my father that although I, Li Chengqian, have no ambitions, I will never do anything that harms the country, and I will never collude with people who have evil intentions."
Li Chengqian turned around and limped towards You Ning in the distance.
At this moment, You Ning's face turned pale and her heart and liver were trembling.
"Madam, I didn't scare you, did I? Come on, let's go home, the sky has fallen, and your husband is here..."
"They won't kill me, because after today's incident, I have become a bright card, and no one will come to trouble us anymore, hahaha..."
Li Tai, who was riding a horse in the distance, was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Chengqian's words. Then his face changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Li Chengqian..."
Thinking back to what his father said today, his hair stood on end. It seemed that he was in trouble.
It turns out that the seemingly weak and incompetent Li Chengqian risked his life to get rid of the suspicion of his father, and also to tell those hiding behind that he, Li Chengqian, did not want to be taken advantage of.
But he has accepted several strangers, and these strangers seem to come from more mysterious hidden families.
Although he didn't know what the Hidden Family wanted to do, he knew that it was definitely up to no good. These people were approaching him to take advantage of his identity.
But he wanted to use these people to achieve his own goals, so he hit it off immediately, because the benefits were big enough, but he forgot that behind the big enough benefits were huge risks.
Li Tai thought about it for a long time and decided in his heart that he wanted to understand all the forces behind it. He could not be a pawn and be manipulated by others.
So, who should I ask for advice on this matter?
Li Tai rode a horse and walked aimlessly on the street. After walking for an unknown amount of time, he finally made up his mind.
"What I have to do is ask my father about this matter clearly and confess everything so that I can avoid this disaster."
"Let's go into the palace with me!"
After Li Shuwan sent Li Chengqian away, she handed the four heads to the secret guard leader Li Shu, who brought them to Li Shimin. Her mission was completed.
As for how Li Shimin handles this matter, it is not something she, a princess, can do.
And this was an extremely dangerous mess that she shouldn't have to clean up.
