Chapter 416 Make concessions
"Father, I thought that Di Renjie must have come for the matter of Hexi. This is the bamboo stick sent to the door. You have to knock!"
Li Chong's reaction was very fast. He was only slightly stunned and had judged Di Renjie's intention. At this sight, his father frowned and immediately reminded him from the side.
"Father, what the eldest brother said is very true. Since the King of England dares to make such a huge case, if he doesn't take out some benefits, he can't think of me to prevaricate for it!" Li Qian obviously had the same idea as Li Chong. Before Li Zhen could make a statement, he had already echoed with a smile.
"Father, although what the eldest brother and the second brother said is reasonable, the third brother is still in Hexi, if..."
Although Li Ji is young, he is very thoughtful. He not only sees the opportunity to knock on the bamboo pole, but also does not forget that Li Wen is not so much monitoring Li Xian, but rather a meat ticket in Li Xian's hand. If he really makes Li look guilty, I'm afraid that Li Wen's life will not last. At this time, he sees the two brothers. Just thinking about rip-offs, but regardless of Li Wen's life and death, he was a little anxious and hurriedly said something.
"Well, Chonger, after all, Di Shaoqing is a member of the court. Since he has come, he can't lose his courtesy. You can lead his brothers to greet him first, saying that he just got up for his father's lunch break, and then he will come. Please wait for a moment in the second hall." Li Zhen did not judge the three sons' remarks, but quietly said and dismissed all the three sons.
"Yes, the child obeys!"
Since Li Zhen had issued an order, Li Chong did not dare to neglect it. He hurriedly answered and led his two brothers to the door of the house in a hurry.
"Zhou De, what do you think about this?"
After Li Chong and others went, Li Zhen was not in a hurry to make a conclusion, but tilted her head, looked at Pei Shoude, who was frowning, and asked blankly.
"Those who come are not good, and those who are good don't come. I'm afraid the bamboo stick of His Royal Highness is not so easy to knock. There must be another mystery here, but the little son-in-law can't figure it out for a while."
Pei Shoude is not as optimistic as Li Chong and others. Although he doesn't have much contact with Li Xian, he knows that Li Xian is fierce and calculating. He is by no means easy to deal with. He really dares not underestimate it. For Di Renjie, who is the number one general of Li Xian, comes to the door at this time, he always feels that the taste is wrong, but he can't see through the root of it. At the bottom, I was a little uneasy in my heart. I had been guessing what was strange in it. Unfortunately, there was too little information to get, and there was really no way to calculate. When I was doubting, Li Zhen would not hide anything when she heard the question, so she said what she thought.
"Well, I also feel that things are not so good. That's all. Now that people have arrived, it's not good not to see each other. Shoude will go with Gu." Li Zhen is a resourceful person. She agrees with Pei Shoude's words. She guesses that she can't think of a clue. She simply doesn't think much about it anymore. She stood up and pondered for a moment. After a moment, she raised her eyebrows and made a decision.
"No."
After Li Zhen was determined, Pei Shoude would not object. He hurriedly stood up, answered his promise, and cautiously followed Li Zhen. Weng's son-in-law walked to the door of the study one after another.
"Father."
After Li Zhen walked to the door, he saw that Li Chong had led his two younger brothers out of the back of the screen.
"Hmm?"
Li Zhen never thought that Li Chong would turn back so quickly, and he was stunned and his face was full of suspicion.
"To my father, Di Renjie did not enter the house. He just exchanged a few words to the child outside the door and gave this to the child, saying that the child should be transferred to the father."
Seeing that Li Zhen's face was unhappy, Li Chong did not dare to neglect at all. He quickly raised a letter in his hand and hurriedly explained.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Li Zhen's eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and there was no more nonsense. She directly reached out to take the letter, tore open the seal, took out a piece of letter paper full of words from the inside, and spread it out. At a glance, her face turned white in an instant, and the hand holding the letter couldn't help shaking slightly.
"Father..."
As soon as he saw Li Zhen's gaffe, Li Chongdeng was anxious and called with concern on his face.
"You all retreat!"
Li Zhen did not explain, but waved impatiently to the three surprised and inexplicable sons, and shouted coldly.
"Father, this..."
As the eldest son, Li Chong had never been treated so coldly by his father, so he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Recede!"
Li Zhen was obviously not in the mood to explain more and drank impatiently.
"No!"
Seeing that Li Zhen was angry, Li Chong did not dare to delay any longer. He hurriedly bowed to the promise and led his two brothers out of the study in a hurry.
"Your Highness."
After Li Chong and others went there, Li Zhen did not say anything. She dragged her feet and slowly walked back to the back of several children. She fell heavily on Hu**. Her hand supported her jaw and seemed to fall into meditation. From time to time, her eyes were shining, her face was changing, and a gloomy and depressing breath was in the big study. It permeated, but for a moment, the breath in the study was suffocating. Under great pressure, Pei Shoude, who was standing down, couldn't calm down, and called in a low voice.
"Hmm."
Hearing the sound, Li Zhen raised her head and didn't say much. She shook her hand and threw the letter paper in her hand casually.
"Ah, this, this..."
Seeing this, Pei Shoude didn't dare to neglect it. He walked quickly to a few sons, stretched out his hands, picked up the letter paper, and went through it quickly. His face instantly turned pale. His body trembling, and his mouth twitched. He didn't know what to say - the letter was not long, and there was only one thing written inside, which was about the Xiangzhou People's League. In addition to the number of people and equipment, there is no other, but this one is enough to put Li Zhen in danger. Just because Xiangzhou is not a border state, it is not allowed to set up a private civil regiment according to the law, not to mention that the armed forces of this civil regiment have caught up with or even surpassed the government soldiers. If this matter is poked out, although Li Zhen may not be killed because of this, it can I'm afraid the big trouble can't be avoided, at least you have to take off the upper skin.
"What a crazy child. I underestimated him. Hey hey, the future is terrible!"
Li Zhen suddenly stood up, put her hands behind her back, walked back and forth in the study for a few steps, shook her head with a wry smile, and sighed a few words.
"Your Majesty, this matter can be big or small. Even if you go to the court, you can't see it..."
Seeing that Li Zhen was so upset, Pei Shoude had to say something to try to comfort him.
"Shou De, I can't stop talking about it. I know the importance. That's all. If that man wants to toss around in Hexi, let him go. You can solve the matter of the civil group, so that no one will do it in the future."
Without waiting for Pei Shoude to finish speaking, Li Zhen waved her hand, stopped talking, and made a decisive decision.
"Yes, the son-in-law knows how to do it."
Seeing that the matter had reached such a field, Pei Shoude did not dare to persuade him any more. He could only respectfully respond to the promise, turned around and hurriedly exited the room.
"Good boy, you have guts!"
Li Zhen ignored Pei Shoude's retreat and walked slowly to the closed window. She raised her hand and pushed the window open. A cold wind poured wildly into the room, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped, but Li Zhen was not moved by the cold at all. A pair of old eyes looked at the northwest sky from between her teeth. A compliment and a derogatory sentence was squeezed out...
"Chongyan, in your opinion, is there anything wrong behind the case of Qiu Shenxun?"
Just as Li Zhen was sighing with emotion, in a side room in the Qianyuan Hall, a white fox fur queen was leaning lazily leaning against Hu**, holding her hand around her cheeks, casually looking at Ming Chongzhen, who was standing at the head, and asked indifferently.
"In the words of the Empress, from the perspective of the case, there are many doubts about this case, and there is no doubt that it must be a fake case. If it is not bad as expected, this case will have nothing to do with the King of England. If it is possible, it should be thoroughly investigated!"
Lanzhou's detailed report on the death of Qiu Shenyu has not yet arrived in Luoyang, but Ming Chongyan has learned the details from secret channels, and he has already made a final agreement. At this time, when he heard Wu Hou's question, he did not panic and answered affirmatively.
"A thorough investigation? Well, it should be thoroughly investigated. Such a huge case can't be hastily dealt with. In Yiqing's opinion, who can investigate this case?
Queen Wu naturally did not believe in the so-called Tubo conspiracy to stab, let alone watch the whole Hexi fall into Li Xian's hands, but now she has no sharp weapon of Dali Temple, and most of the government has fallen into the hands of the prince because of Gao Zong's Ming edict. Wu Hou can no longer control the court as usual, as in how to intervene in Qiu Shen. The case is quite tricky, and it is difficult to have a perfect idea, which will summon Ming Chongyan into the palace.
"If you go back to the mother, this case must be thoroughly investigated, but it cannot be investigated by our side. Otherwise, it is one aspect of attracting criticism, and it is more likely to repeat the mistakes of Qiu Shenyi. In the opinion of Weichen, since the three sons of the King of Yue are involved in this case, it is better to let Pei Shoude go for a while. With the ability of the King of Yue, maybe he can really Maybe the truth of this case will be revealed.
Ming Chongyan hated Li Xian deeply, but he never let go of any chance to find some trouble for him. As soon as he learned the news of the Lanzhou case, he began to think about countermeasures. He had already had a plan in his mind. At this time, he was very calm to answer the questions after Wu.
"Pep Shoude? Well, I have heard about this son. It is said that he is quite talented. From his appearance, I can rest assured. In this case, when the court discussed, Aiqing recommended it to him.
Empress Wu also intended to force the King of Yue to the opposite side of Li Xian. At this time, as soon as she heard Ming Chong Yan's words, she would not object. She nodded thoughtfully, and then gently gave a high-five to settle the matter.
"The Empress is holy."
Hearing Wu Hou agreed to his proposal, although Ming Chongyan's face was still calm, his eyes unconsciously showed a trace of gloating...
