Dali Temple Prison was the starting point of Li Kuan’s official career. He felt a lot about this place. A glance at the original building was still the same. Even the official posts in Dali Temple Prison have not changed. The government officials in charge of Dali Temple Prison have changed many people. , But their cell bosses are still He Xiuqi and He Jitong.
"Your Highness!"
When Li Kuan appeared in front of the two, He Xiuqi and He Jitong couldn't hide their excitement, and took the initiative to greet them and salute them respectfully. On the first day of the first lunar month, they also stood by their posts, even Dali Temple Prisoner Hao Chujun. On the job, as well as the couples Chen Yuliu, Zhang Lingying and their children who were unjustly imprisoned, they treated Dali Temple as their own home, and all those who followed him were there. Hearing that Li Kuan had come, everyone came out to greet the worship.
Li Kuan ordered Zhang Chong and Leng Feng to prepare red envelopes. Whether they were with him or not, everyone present was rewarded without exception. Everyone was not polite and accepted, Hao Chujun bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, what are you doing here?"
"Which cell is Changsun Wuji?" Li Kuan asked, and Hao Chujun replied: "Tianzihao, the next official will lead you!"
Li Kuan and others followed closely, He Xiuqi, He Ji and others were waiting outside. Li Kuan told them not to have outsiders, and the two only nodded in agreement. Under the leadership of Hao Chujun, Li Kuan and others came to the Tianzi cell where Changsun Wuji was located.
Changsun Wuji’s cell was alone, like a luxurious suite. Beds, bedding, etc. were all available, and even good wine and food were served, but the food Changsun Wuji did not move. After being locked in the cell last night, Changsun Wuji has no appetite for thoughts.
Hao Chujun apologized slightly. Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji knew something about him if they didn't deal with him. However, Changsun Wuji had different identities and was unable to deploy the cell. This was also done in accordance with the regulations. Li Kuan did not say much about this, and ordered him to open the cell. , And then Li Kuan whispered: "You and Master Hao do what you should do!"
Zhang Chong and Leng Feng nodded and said yes, and Hao Chujun also bowed and said goodbye to leave, and took Zhang Chong and Leng Feng to the dungeon and the jail.
"Gong Zhao, don't come here to be safe!" Li Kuan smiled at the dazed grandson Wuji, sighed with a complex expression, bowed slowly, and said: "The criminal minister pays homage to your Royal Highness!"
"Is the Master Taishi confused?" Faced with Li Kuan's sneer, Changsun Wuji shook his head bitterly without giving any explanation, thinking: "He actually didn't know about this, that is to say, it was his own opinion. ,What is the reason?"
Changsun Wuji has been thinking about this issue since last night. No matter what he thinks, he couldn't figure it out. Finally, seeing Li Kuan, he bowed and asked, "His Royal Highness can help the criminals
"If you can answer my question, then I can consider it!" Li Kuan saw that Changsun Wuji had also come, and both of them had doubts in their hearts. They were in line with each other's wishes. Changsun Wuji said, "His Royal Highness, please ask. The guilty minister will tell the truth!"
"On that day, I led the army to the back of Xue Yantuo's army to cut off its grain and grass, and was besieged by the enemy generals on the Xiongnu River!" Li Kuan recalled the cruel scene of corpses running across the country and blood flowing in a river, and he felt very uncomfortable. "How did you or Li Zhi know about it, and how did you plan it, and some of them directly colluded with the enemy to treason, how much do you know about this?"
Changsun Wuji smiled bitterly, "His Royal Highness, you already knew it, so why didn't you start the action immediately after returning to Beijing?"
"If that's not too cheap for you, what I want is for you to live better than to die!" Li Kuan sneered, "Now your eldest grandson clan cannot escape because of you, I am afraid that there will be no eldest grandson family in the future of the Tang Dynasty. Even if you are not in jail, I will ruin you, and even the whole family will not escape bad luck. The same is true for your good nephew, Li Zhi."
Changsun Wuji sighed in frustration, and told the story exactly. By now, Changsun Wuji had nothing to hide, and he had something to ask Li Kuan, even if he died, he would die clearly.
In fact, the key person in this incident was Xue Wanche, because he was Li Zhi’s An Qi and the general supported by Changsun Wuji. Naturally, he supported Li Zhi’s fight for the crown prince. After Xue Wanche heard about it, he hurriedly set about arranging for all the members of the forces who wanted to attack Li Kuan to be inserted into the team.
To put it plainly, Xue Wanche is the core of the whole plan. Among them are the guards of King Wu and Li Ke, the assassins arranged by the king of Shu Li Yan, the guards and assassins of King Wei, and even the assassins and guards arranged by Li Zhi and Changsun Wuji. Mixed together, their goals are the same, so Xue Wanche, as an internal should, arranges silently and is very easy, and it will not cause others to notice.
Li Kuan suddenly realized why Xue Wanche disobeyed the commander order and was unwilling to rush to help him, because he believed that he was bound to die, and he knew that he was one of the participants in the whole plan. Now Xue Wanche is also being imprisoned by the big boss, and sentenced to death for chanting military exploits.
"Then who are you colluding with the enemy generals, and who is the scout?" Changsun Wuji categorically denied, categorically saying: "Even if I wait for you to die on the battlefield and don't want you to return to Beijing, it's impossible. I did not know who the scout and the collaborator were. I just heard Xue Wanche say that there is such a force that secretly manipulates everything, it seems to be a matter of getting rid of you by our hands and colluding with the enemy. They also contacted."
Li Kuan saw that his elder Sun Wuji denied collaborating with the enemy and treason, making him wonder if it was arranged by Li Shimin? After thinking about it, I denied my guess. If it was really arranged by Li Shimin that it would not be possible to collude with the enemy, wouldn't it be a failure? There must be hidden secrets in this. He bowed his head and meditated: "Who is controlling everything behind the scenes?"
"I wonder if your Royal Highness can answer a question from the criminal?" Changsun Wuji asked, and Li Kuan nodded in agreement. "The rumor in the palace said that His Royal Highness single-handedly entered the palace and wanted to kill the king. Was it a rumor?"
Li Kuan smiled and asked, "Didn't you have a conclusion in your heart?"
Changsun Wuji could not deny his acquiescence, because he was convinced that the incident was not a rumor, even Li Zhi knew it was true, even if they were sure they didn't dare to stand up and talk about it at that time, they had to pretend not to know it.
"Uncle Huang once said that the biggest mistake was to provoke His Highness, and that everything was caused by what I planted back then. I wonder if His Highness can tell me clearly?" Changsun Wuji's biggest doubt is this. Except for the last time he shot against Li Kuan, he hadn't really made any suggestions before, why did Li Daozong warn himself so
"My mother died because of you!"
Li Kuan sneered again and again. The grandson Wuji really didn’t understand it. It wasn’t until Li Kuan uttered his mother’s name that he suddenly realized that he smiled miserably, and everything became clear. It was precisely because of what he had done back then that Li Shimin got it. Knowing the truth will naturally not let him go. However, Changsun Wuji did not repent of what happened back then.
