The sun shines on the West Inner Court, which is very bright, the lake is swaying with sparkling light, and the fish swim freely in the water. This is a lazy scene, and it is also a day suitable for having some fun outdoors. After exporting the words, Li Wei clearly felt that today's winter was extraordinarily cold.
Li Xian.
Probably only Li Hui himself knows what kind of weight this name has for him. Only Li Hui himself knows how many times the person with this name has given him nightmares.
During Li Wei's career as emperor, that was the only person he feared, even feared. Every day when Li Xian was alive, Li Wei felt that the position of emperor under him was like a furnace, as if it could roast him at any time.
First in military exploits, first in political achievements, first in cultivation, the first emperor bestowed the emperor's sword, opened the three divisions of the government, and his disciples and old officials are all over the world... Even if it is just a foreign surname, who has any of these achievements, It will make the emperor who is not so broad-minded afraid.
Li Xian is not a courtier with a foreign surname, he is a son of the clan.
When the first emperor Xuanzong was around, he accompanied him day and night, receiving Xuanzong's daily guidance, and spared no effort to cultivate him.
Before Li Wei succeeded to the throne, there were rumors in the government and the public that if Xuanzong's Zhongxing Dynasty could be passed on to Li Xian, it would surely flourish... and even reappear the glory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!
Carry forward the glory of Tang Dynasty!
Li Yu clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth secretly, and the light of hatred flashed in his eyes.
During Xuanzong's life, he did not establish a crown prince. When he was seriously ill, many courtiers thought that this courageous and talented ZTE Lord would pass the throne to Li Xian as an exception... because Li Xian was originally Xuanzong's relative. Brother's descendants; because of Li Xian, Xuanzong has given him the Son of Heaven Sword!
The reason why Lu Jujian is called the Son of Heaven Sword is because it has always been the Son of Heaven's Saber!
The prince who was not established as the prince taught him day and night, ordered him to go out to lead the army and take charge of the government, and after he made meritorious service, he was given the emperor's sword... In Li Hui's view, if these signs were not for the purpose of passing the throne to Li Xian, Why is Xuanzong like this
Li Wei got up angrily, flicked his sleeves, and stood facing the lake with his hands behind his back.
At that time, Li Wei's cultivation was mediocre, he had never been famous, and he was not favored. It was unexpected that he could inherit the throne, and it was all because the lieutenant of the Shence Army at that time chose him.
Moreover, Xuanzong died young, so suddenly, it was unexpected!
I'm afraid that Xuanzong himself didn't expect that he would suddenly become seriously ill and become unconscious, so many plans came to naught.
After Li Hui came to the throne, Li Xian fought for many years without a single defeat. He never had a bad reputation in governing the region, and his credit increased day by day.
So... there was the Battle of Bagong Mountain.
"Tell me! Why did you mention Li Xian!" Li Wei asked word by word, "You'd better give me a satisfactory reason!"
The emperor was angry, Wei Baoheng quickly bowed to the ground, expressing his fear, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Li Xian is dead, so there is no need to be afraid, but Li Xian's former confidantes..."
"Didn't you clean up his cronies and confidants?!" Li Wei asked without turning his head.
Wei Baoheng replied: "It was true that a lot was cleaned up at that time. But Li Xian has great influence in the government and the public, and his cronies and confidants, there are also some people with high cultivation levels. At that time, they were not completely wiped out, and some people still ran away... . . . ”
"So what? If you run away a few ants, can you still overthrow my country? Li Xian is dead, and they still want to rebel?!" Li Wei flicked his sleeves, his voice stern.
Wei Baoheng said: "According to common sense, it is naturally impossible, but now things have changed."
"What change?"
"This change is Li Ye!"
"How is Li Ye?"
"Li Ye's cultivation has reached the fifth level of Qi training!"
"What did you say?! How is this possible! He has only been able to train Qi for a few days?!"
"Your Majesty, don't forget, what Li Ye got in Shenyun Mountain is the inheritance of Master Yuan!"
"Yuan Tiangang..."
"In the world of Tang Dynasty, there has never been anyone whose cultivation has reached the realm of Yuan Tianshi... It is rumored that after Yuan Tianshi left Chang'an, his realm may even have reached the realm of a real person!"
"Above the realm of real people? This is impossible! Wouldn't it be immortal!"
"Your Majesty..."
"Even if Li Ye's cultivation is progressing rapidly, so what? After all, he is just a person. What can he do in my world? If I reward him, he will continue. If I destroy him, he can only thank him!"
"Now Li Ye is no longer alone!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Wang Duo, Lu Yan and others all have close contacts with Li Ye!"
"Wang Duo? This old man who is trying to catch his name! In the name of being loyal and harsh, he will make trouble with me everywhere!"
"Not only that, I also learned that a group of monks who have reached the high level of Qi training have gathered in Prince An's mansion!"
"Advanced level of Qi training? Will the high level of Qi training go to seek refuge with a fourth-rank official?"
"There is only one possibility!"
"Are these people Li Xian's former cronies and confidants?"
"Your Majesty is holy!"
Li Min stopped talking and stared at the lake without moving.
Wei Baoheng couldn't see his face, so he couldn't figure out his thoughts, but Li Hui's shoulders were already trembling slightly, which showed that Li Hui's mood was at least not calm.
Li Hui's reaction made Wei Baoheng gradually feel confident in his heart. As Li Hui's closest courtier, he knew the emperor too well, and knew what to do to poke the other party's pain.
If there were indeed Li Xian's cronies gathered around Li Ye in the past, then Li Ye might have known about Li Xian's murder. It's just too incompetent, and regardless of whether they know the truth or not, Li Wei has to be on guard and suspicious.
The purpose of Wei Baoheng's trip to the palace was not to pour dirty water on Li Ye.
Splashing dirty water is just a means.
Wei Baoheng suddenly grabbed the ground with his head, and said sadly: "Your Majesty, I'm guilty!"
"Say it!" Li Mi said very emphatically.
"The former retainers of the minister's mansion recently colluded with the Weishui river bandits and robbed the imperial court's Autumn Fu!" Wei Baoheng cried bitterly, "I did not investigate in advance, I am guilty, please punish me!"
"A former doorman?"
"Yes!" Wei Baoheng was heartbroken, "I also noticed their perverted temperament, so I kicked them out! Who would have thought that as soon as they left my place, they would use the guise of my minister to do evil everywhere... the crime of my minister... Damn it! Now, for some reason, these disciples were arrested by Li Ye in Huangli Township, and now they have been brought back to Chang'an Mansion!"
"Besides... and the prince and Lu Gong have already started to investigate! I know that I have always disagreed with the prince and often have disputes. This time, the servants of the minister have fallen into the hands of the prince. I don't know what will happen. Planting and framing! I know that I cannot escape the guilt, so I first plead guilty to His Majesty!"
Li Yu fell silent again.
Wei Baoheng kept pleading guilty on the ground.
After a while, Li Wei spoke slowly: "You and Wang Duo and others have always had constant disputes, and Li Ye has a close relationship with Wang Duo and Lu Yan, and Prince An's Mansion has Li Xian's former cronies again... Love Qing, Aiqing, it seems that someone took advantage of the dispute between you and Wang Duo and the others to take revenge on you through Wang Duo's hand!"
Wei Baoheng looked surprised and puzzled: "Your Majesty, this... I can't understand."
Li Wei snorted coldly, seeming to be wise: "What can't be understood? Obviously, it is very likely that Li Ye has learned the truth about the Battle of Bagong Mountain from Li Xian's former confidantes, and understands the siege that day. The people who killed Li Xian were all arranged by you, so this time I will take revenge on you! But you are the ruling prime minister, not to mention the high position and authority, and there are so many experts around you. It is as difficult as heaven for Li Ye to deal with you. Tell me, what should he do at this time?"
"This... this..." Wei Baoheng looked terrified, and continued to pretend to be stupid, so that Li Wei could use his talents to reveal the "truth" by himself, and gain the sense of accomplishment that I have seen through everything.
Wei Baoheng was trembling all over, looking very disturbed, "I don't know..."
"It's very simple." Li Wei was really fooled, and followed the introduction that Wei Baoheng had thrown out long ago, and followed the clues, and that was exactly what Wei Baoheng wanted Li Hui to think of, "Li Ye must borrow the strength of others! And Wang Duo, who has always been at odds with you, Waiting for others is the best target. This time Li Ye caught your evil deeds as a former servant, and he must make a big fuss. Wang Duo and others, in order to bring you down, must add fuel and jealousy... Love, love Qing, I reckon that you will bear a lot of evidence, and you may even be charged with rebellion!"
Speaking of this, Li Wei smiled, and his eyes were not without contentment, like a famous general who saw through the enemy's strategist's arrangement with a flick of his fingers, commanded his own soldiers and horses to attack, and wiped out millions of enemy troops.
"Ah? How could this be?" Wei Baoheng was stunned for a while, then hurriedly kowtowed, "Your Majesty saves me, Your Majesty saves me! I know that I have been guilty of improper control of my followers, and I am willing to be punished. Since then, I have no chance to be loyal to Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."
"Okay, get up." Li Wei waved his hands, his face full of self-satisfaction, "You are my prime minister, how can I let you suffer? Don't worry, as long as I'm here, your position is as stable as Mount Tai!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is so kind, I can't repay you even if I die..."
"Xuan Dali Temple Minister!"
...
When Wei Baoheng walked out of Changle Gate, he looked up at Changtian and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Just now, Li Wei announced the audience of Dali Temple Minister, and drafted an order on the spot to let Dali Temple go to Chang'an Mansion to take over Chen Jianghe's case.
The important officials of Dali Temple were all single-handedly selected by Wei Baoheng. They were his absolute confidantes. Dali Temple took over the testimony and tried the case of Huangli Township. Of course, he had the final say on whether it was black or white, and what he would get. The result is self-evident.
Big things turned into small things, it’s not enough to describe it, if it’s not good enough, it’s going to be blamed, saying that Li Ye, Wang Duo and others intend to falsely accuse the current prime minister... For Wei Baoheng, that is undoubtedly an interesting story develop.
Wei Baoheng smiled.
There is one biggest difference between a wise ruler and a foolish ruler, that is, both listeners and partial believers.
If you are a wise king, you will naturally not listen to Wei Baoheng's one-sided words because of your personal likes and dislikes, and will call Wang Duo, Lu Yan, Li Ye and others to learn more about this matter.
But Li Hui won't.
Wei Baoheng knew that Li Hui would not.
He knew Li Mi very well.
From the time he planned to say the name "Li Xian", he knew that Li Wei's lack of rationality would be completely washed away by hatred and jealousy, so he would naturally stand by his side.
Perhaps Li Wei would not be so dazed that he would investigate Li Ye immediately, but at least in this matter right now, Li Wei would side with Wei Baoheng because of his suspicion of Li Ye.

"Want to defeat me? You all think too easily!"
Wei Baoheng let out a cold snort, shook his sleeves, and walked towards his luxurious carriage in high spirits, thinking silently in his heart, "I can secure the position of prime minister because of two things, Your Majesty's favor and ingenuity. As long as I If you are not stupid, your family will last forever, as long as your majesty still trusts me, no matter how much you do, it will be in vain!"
Sitting in the carriage, Wei Baoheng was no longer worried about Chen Jianghe's affairs, he started to think now, what kind of new tricks should he come up with next, to make Li Min happy... Tour the Eastern Capital? Dedicated to exotic beauties? Build a giant dragon boat
In Wei Baoheng's view, this is the most important issue.
This is really, what a pair of foolish and treacherous ministers!
