When Li Ye and others were outside the city, Wei Baoheng had no chance to intercept them. Now that they were in Chang'an City, it was even more impossible to do anything. Li Ye and others arrived at Chang'an Mansion smoothly.
Wang Li took Chang He to help the gang to go to the cell, while Xu Shaomu arranged heavy guards, because Wang Duo and Lu Yan had both arrived in Chang'an Mansion, so Li Ye went to meet them first.
In today's court, Wei Baoheng, Lu Yan, and Wang Duo are the three great Buddhas, and they are also the most powerful. Except for Wei Baoheng, now both of them have arrived at Chang'an Mansion, and they have to wait in advance. What is the weight of Li Ye and his trip? Needless to say.
"I have seen the prince and Lu Gong."
"I have seen His Highness."
The three of them greeted each other in the room, and then took their seats one after another. None of them went to take the main seat, because it was not suitable for anyone to sit. Wang Duo and Lu Yan have the same official position and are higher than Li Ye, but Li Ye is a prince after all, even if they meet in the government office, Wang Duo and Lu Yan are not willing to make things worse.
"His Royal Highness's trip is really extremely dangerous. Seeing His Highness has returned safely, a big stone in my heart was relieved."
Wang Duo has a close relationship with Li Ye, so he spoke first, and he was very angry, "No one would have thought that the prime minister of the court would instruct the monks in the house to intimidate the forces in the world to plunder the imperial court's autumn gifts in order to exclude his colleagues. ! Such an act is simply outrageous!"
Unlike Wang Duo who denounced Wei Baoheng and expressed his hatred for the chaos of treacherous ministers, Lu Yan praised Li Ye's actions more.
He said with admiration: "Wei Baoheng set up an ambush in Huangli Township. If His Royal Highness hadn't been wise and powerful this time, I'm afraid the dog thief would have succeeded. His Highness turned danger into good fortune, not only escaped from danger, but also seized The evidence of the dog thief is really admirable!"
Seeing that Wei Baoheng was about to be overthrown, Lu Yan was very happy and did not hesitate to praise him.
Hearing what Lu Yan said, Wang Duo also expressed his deep agreement. He put aside his hatred for corrupt officials for the time being, and said to Li Ye: "Your Highness's trip to arrest criminals is due to the community. After the world knows about it, they will also praise His Highness." Virtue!"
Speaking of this, Wang Duo showed a look of reminiscence: "In the past, when the old King An was famous all over the world, the world said that the old King An was the hero who rescued the difficult times. Although the old King An is gone now, there is His Highness who inherits the old man. King An's mantle, the people of the world will also see the hope of Datang Zhongxing!"
Li Ye didn't intend to tell them more about these things, so he brought the conversation to the main topic: "The criminal in Huangli Township has been captured, what's your plan next?"
Wang Duo was angry and charged: "Wei Baoheng has dominated the government for many years. He is called the prime minister, but he is actually a traitor. He deceived the emperor and corrupted Chaogang. We wanted to impeach him before, but we couldn't find any evidence. Now that we have these criminal evidences, if we If I can't impeach him, I will be incompetent!"
Lu Yan also said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will immediately try this case together with the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and try to close the case as soon as possible, so that Wei Baoheng and other community moths will be cleared from the court!"

Li Ye nodded. His current official position is still low. He can't take the lead in these matters. Wang Duo and Lu Yan can only preside over them. Seeing that Wang Duo and Lu Yan were very confident, Li Ye was a little relieved.
Next, Du Shaomu also arrived, and several people discussed the details of the interrogation. Li Ye raised Liu Zhiyan and the others' questions, and got everyone's assurance that they would not embarrass them, and would give them a chance to make up for their mistakes.
The matter was almost negotiated, Li Ye stood up and said goodbye, it is not very useful for him to stay here, the interrogation is a rather technical task, Li Ye did not intend to intervene, after all, he brought back the attacker, Liu Zhiyan and others, it was already a great success .
In the matter of bringing down Wei Baoheng, he can't do everything. In that case, others will have no chance to show off. Will do thankless things.
Wang Duo, Lu Yan and others sympathized with Li Ye's hard journey, and advised Li Ye to go back to rest, and Li Ye was happy to be at leisure.
Back at Prince An's Mansion, Song Jiao and the others had already gone to rest.
Now in the affairs of Prince An's Mansion, Wu has Shangguan Qingcheng to take the lead, and Wen has Li Zhen to take the lead, arranging the residences of Liu Dazheng, Mo Dongli, Zhao Polu and others, and distributing them. It seems that he has become the butler of the palace.
Li Zhen has not been in the palace for a long time. If it were an ordinary person, it would be difficult to straighten things out so quickly. However, Li Zhen is very talented, so he is familiar with the affairs very quickly, and now he is able to take care of himself.
The next day, Li Ye was still resting in the mansion. At the beginning of the Shenshi period, Zhang He, the envoy of Lulong Jiedu, came to see him, and Li Ye received him in the study outside.
Next to Zhang He, there was still the middle-aged man who looked like a Confucian scholar. He came here mainly to inform Li Ye of the progress of Lu Long's collection of evidence for Zhenwu's assassination of Kang Chengxun.
According to Zhang He, a lot of evidence of the crime of splashing dirty water has been collected. After all, monks acted quickly. Now Lu Long Jiedushi has begun to write a memorial, and he will refer to Li Guochang's book soon. I hope Li Ye will Be able to inform Wang Duo and others, and echo in the court.
This is good news, Li Ye naturally agreed. Although Wei Baoheng is about to fall, the marriage between Li Keyong and Princess Li may not end with Wei Baoheng's downfall, not to mention that Wu Hongshan will continue to push forward this matter, and the emperor will not withdraw it easily in order to subdue Zhenwu. Fate.
But Li Keyong has left Chang'an now, if he can add the criminal evidence collected by Lu Long, the two-pronged approach will make the matter not serious.
After talking about the business, Zhang He didn't leave immediately, and started chatting with Li Ye, so as to improve the relationship with Li Ye. These days, Zhang He found out through many inquiries that Li Ye was already walking with Wang Duo and Lu Yan, and they were very powerful, so of course they wanted to curry favor.
"A few days ago, Li Keyong disappeared from Chang'an suddenly, and he didn't know where he went. Speaking of which, it was a matter of time and time again that he went to Huangli Township with His Highness."
Zhang He put down his tea bowl, and said with some doubts, "Originally, Li Keyong came to Beijing to marry Princess Li, but now he left suddenly, is it because he felt inferior to His Royal Highness after losing to His Royal Highness in the consort's mansion last time?" You can't go to Princess Li, so you took the initiative to retreat?"
"Oh? Is that so? It's possible." Li Ye drank his tea with a smile, his expression normal. Of course he couldn't tell Zhang He that it was he who beat Li Ke away. The majestic prince and the general of the feudal town fight against each other? The impact is not good at all.
"It seems so!" Zhang He slapped his thigh excitedly as if he had discovered something.
He looked at Li Ye, and continued: "The story of His Highness's victory over Li Keyong in the Consort's Mansion has already spread in Chang'an, and now people all over the street are talking about it, saying that His Highness has grown the ambition of Chang'an, and treats His Highness like a hero." .Even the storyteller in the teahouse has been describing this incident vividly these days, praising His Highness for his accumulation of knowledge and talents, and he is the real number one genius of the Tang Dynasty!"
Li Ye's victory over Li Keyong is naturally exciting news for the people of Chang'an. After all, it is no secret that Zhenwu is unruly. , Naturally, it is very satisfying.
Li Ye found it interesting that Zhang He was so excited. The other party reacted like this just because he beat Li Keyong in the duel. If the other party knew that Li Ye beat Li Keyong like a pig's head and forced him to leave Chang'an, I don't know how it will behave.
Li Ye didn't seem to care about Zhang He's words, and said with a smile, "What a first-time genius, it's overrated."
He really didn't care about these false names. After all, before crossing, he was called the number one genius in China when he was a child, and he was already numb.
Li Ye didn't care, but Zhang He didn't think so anymore. Seeing Li Ye's expression was indifferent, he wasn't proud of it at all, so he couldn't help but glance at Li Ye, and thought: Your Highness is just as young as the crown. I love vanity, I wish that when everyone in the world knows that I am very powerful, the prestige of being the first genius in the Tang Dynasty is even more important, but His Highness doesn't care, this kind of calm state of mind, not to mention young people in their early twenties, even some Old people who are old should also cherish their reputation, and they can't match him.
Thinking of this, Zhang He, who already admired Li Ye's strength, respected Li Ye even more. After all, if a person wants to succeed, cultivation talent is important, but temperament is also crucial. At this time, Zhang He has already made up his mind that Li Ye Ye will definitely achieve a lot in the future, and now he has more determination to hold on to this big tree.
When leaving Prince An's Mansion, Zhang He was still thinking about how to get closer to Li Ye. This is a difficult problem. After all, Li Ye has a noble status, and logically he has everything. The treasured calligraphy and paintings he brought today were also rejected by Li Ye, presumably Li Ye is not a person who likes vulgar things.
"Magic artifacts? Lu Long doesn't have many. Beauty? It seems that His Highness doesn't look like a womanizer... This is difficult." Zhang He thought hard for a long time, but found nothing. Those who rode on the street didn't know it. He looked up by chance and heard the people around him talking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart was blessed.
Those people were talking about Li Ye's victory over Li Keyong.
Zhang He thought: "Your Highness doesn't like pleasure, it must be due to his lofty ambitions and his heart for official career. In this case, I should publicize His Highness's reputation and let him establish his reputation among the people. In this way, when the Ministry of Officials assesses His Highness's reputation, There will be a big harvest! When the time comes, His Highness will know that this is my method, and he will definitely be grateful to me... "
Zhang He hurried back to the government, summoned his men, and sent them to the streets to publicize Li Ye's virtuous name.
Li Ye didn't know that Zhang He had done these things, so he sent the other party away, so he went back to the house to meditate. Although he can't absorb the aura of heaven and earth now, meditation is good for meditation and thinking, so this habit has been retained.
At night, Li Ye keenly noticed some abnormalities.
Wisps of white and red air flow gathered from all directions, arousing the dragon energy in the body to swim, as if to absorb it. Most of these air currents are white, which can be seen to be the luck of ordinary people. When these air currents reach Li Ye, they are mostly circling Uncertain, it seems to be absorbed by him, but not really absorbed, only a very small part enters his body.
Li Ye couldn't help being stunned, thinking what was going on, someone became loyal to me for no reason
He couldn't figure it out for a while, but the gathering of air currents is a continuous process. Although the number is extremely small and the improvement of his cultivation is limited, it really exists.
Li Ye made up his mind to wait until tomorrow and go outside to have a look.
On the next day, Li Ye got up early and went out with a strange expression.
The gathering of luck has never stopped. When Li Ye woke up, he found that his cultivation base had been clearly and recognizably improved. Although he was only one step out of ten thousand steps away from the sixth level of Qi training, it was still very strange. very.
He walked out into the street, blending in with the crowd, slowing down, looking around.
He heard the discussion.
"You know, a few days ago, His Royal Highness King An defeated the son of Zhenwu Jiedushi in a martial arts competition, greatly increasing our prestige!"
"I've known this for a long time! To tell you the truth, His Royal Highness King An, that is the object of my admiration and the goal of my life. I am willing to lead the horse for King An!"
"With your body, how can you lead the horse and fall for King An? I have made up my mind to work hard to improve my cultivation, and I will be a guest of King An's mansion in the future, and follow King An!"
Hearing the discussion, Li Ye fixed his eyes to see that they were two young people. As the conversation progressed, the white air flow above their heads really gathered towards him.
"There is such an operation?" Li Ye was stunned, and finally understood the root of the gathering of luck, "These people, without my knowledge, have adored me, they are my fans Ah! I see, it's the fame effect!"
Immediately, Li Ye's face became a little weird: "Being defeated Li Keyong made me famous in Chang'an City, and some young people began to worship me. This is a disguised form of loyalty, so they are lucky, Then they will be able to gather with me—that’s right, this kind of loyalty is not in vain, one can imagine that if Huang Chao attacks the city at this time, and I raise my arms, these people should follow me to the city to kill the enemy!"
This kind of thing is not uncommon. Don't all the famous heroes in history like to do such feats.
Ascend and call out, the four sides respond, heroes from all over the world gather together to see the scenery from...
After figuring out the root of the problem, Li Ye's eyes gradually cleared up.
He thought again: "However, defeating Li Keyong in the sparring is just a trivial matter. The name is far from famous enough, and the reputation gained is limited, so the luck gathered is not much, and it is not enough for me to advance to the sixth level of Qi training. One-thousandth of a... ”
Thinking of this, Li Ye raised his head and looked in the direction of the imperial city: "And if Wei Baoheng can be brought down... Wei Baoheng is a well-known treacherous minister, and the common people hate him, if I can do it this time... To overthrow him will be a joy to the hearts of the people, and his reputation will surely be passed on to thousands of people. At that time, he will be promoted to the sixth level of Qi training, and there is hope... "
