In the cave, Cheng Yaojin's voice stopped suddenly, with an embarrassed look on his face. He was just talking about Li Yuanji's dark history when the real owner appeared. This made him feel a little ashamed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Although he has a generous image to the outside world, he is very delicate and knows how to measure things in his heart. Now that Li Shimin is imprisoned and no one is protecting him, he does not dare to mess around.
Because he can't see Li Yuanji clearly now, and he doesn't know what kind of character Li Yuanji is. If Li Yuanji doesn't like fools, and he acts messily in front of Li Yuanji, he will inevitably suffer consequences.
So he was not only embarrassed, but also very reserved.
Yuchi Gong didn't think as much as he did. After seeing Li Yuanji appear in the cave, he immediately stared and shouted: "King Qi, what do you want to do by imprisoning us here?"
What?"
Qin Qiong kept looking up at the roof of the cave. After Li Yuanji entered the cave, he just glanced sideways, and then continued to look up at the roof.
After Li Yuanji's eyes lingered on Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin for a while, he looked at Yuchi Gong and said with a faint smile: "You called him King Qi too? Are there any rules anymore? This is what my second brother taught you?"
Yuchi Gong stared and shouted: "We have become prisoners, and we don't need to be polite to you anymore. We are ready to die. We will kill or behead you as you please."
Li Yuanji smiled and said: "I think you are itchy again."
Yu Chigong has always been fearless, but now that he heard Li Yuanji's threat, his heart trembled subconsciously, he glared at Li Yuanji angrily, and shut his mouth obediently.
He is very courageous, but that doesn't mean he likes to actively seek death.
When Li Yuanji didn't clearly indicate that he wanted to kill him, he didn't dare to offend Li Yuanji too much.
Because he knew very well how his life was saved.
He could not let down Li Shimin's heart and soul, nor could he leave Li Shimin alone to fight against Li Yuanji, so he had to endure the humiliation and bear the burden.
Li Yuanji walked to the kang in the cave dwelling, looked at Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin who were lying upright on the kang, and said with a smile: "People should be more aware of their interests. Only by understanding their interests can they live longer."
"I know my interests, I know my interests very well. Whatever your Highness asks me to do, I will do it immediately."
As if he had learned how to change faces in Sichuan Opera, Cheng Yaojin climbed up the stick dropped by Li Yuanji with a playful smile.
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Cheng Yaojin and said angrily: "I can't believe how sensible you are."
Cheng Yaojin smiled dryly and said: "Didn't you let me know what I am doing? I have learned what I am doing, why don't you believe it again?"
Are you playing tricks on me?
Li Yuanji chuckled and said: "Then let's continue the topic we just talked about? Tell us about those of you who came from Wagang. If you plead for Shan Xiongxin, why would my second brother kill you?"
The smile on Cheng Yaojin's face suddenly froze, and he shut his mouth in a sullen voice, not daring to say another word.
That was Li Shimin's dark history. As a subordinate of Li Shimin, even if he knew the truth, he would not be able to spread it around. Otherwise, he would be disloyal to Li Shimin and unjust to Li Shimin.
If Li Shimin makes a comeback in the future, he will definitely be liquidated.
Not everyone is qualified to know the dark history of those in power, and not everyone can publicize it.
If someone doesn't get it right, he or she will get caught up in it, and maybe the whole family will get caught up in it as well.
So when it's time to keep your mouth shut, you must keep your mouth shut, and never tell everything you know just for the sake of temporary pleasure and the adulation of others.
In that case, you will only bring trouble to yourself.
As a person with a brain, especially a person with an exquisite heart, Cheng Yaojin has long understood what should be said and what should not be said. He has also experienced many things. In order to have a moment of pleasure and to be praised by others, Cheng Yaojin has already seen a lot.
A fool who goes out and talks nonsense, and ends up risking the lives of himself and his whole family.
So he would never follow in the footsteps of these idiots.
After blocking the mouths of Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin, Li Yuanji could finally have a good chat with Qin Qiong.
Li Yuanji did not dislike the strong smell of medicine coming from everywhere on the kang. He casually walked to the edge of the kang, looked at Qin Qiong who was staring at the top of the kiln in a daze, and laughed softly: "I think they were having a good chat just now.
, why don’t you talk together?”
Qin Qiong was stunned, slowly withdrew his gaze, nodded very politely, then touched the wound on his body, and said in a grinning voice: "These are old things, what's there to talk about."
Li Yuanji asked with a smile: "Then did they tell you what happened in the palace after you passed out, and why I rescued you and them?"
Qin Qiong was stunned for a moment, then finally came to his senses, and said with some doubts in his eyes: "Isn't it that His Highness King Qin begged you to do this?"
Li Yuanji laughed and said: "If he begs me, I will agree? Don't forget, he sent Duan Zhixuan to bring more than a thousand Xuanjia troops, and thousands of Tongjunfu officers and soldiers to Jiulongtan.
Mountain Slaughter My Home Vol.
Do you think I can forget this kind of thing and easily agree to his request?"
Qin Qiong was even more stunned, "Then you just want to use us and recruit us, so you made a favor?"
Li Yuanji smiled again and said: "Qin Qiong, Qin Qiong, did you sleep in the lake? If I want to use you and recruit you, why should I use other people's mouths to show favor?
Wouldn’t it be better for me to just give him a favor?”
Qin Qiong was immediately asked.
This is indeed the truth.
If Li Yuanji wanted to use them and recruit them, he would definitely extend his favor directly without Li Shimin opening his mouth.
Because Li Shimin opened his mouth, it was equivalent to Li Shimin begging Li Yuanji to save them. When it comes to showing kindness, it was Li Shimin who showed kindness to them. At best, Li Yuanji only received a favor from Li Shimin.

I have no romantic relationship with them.
It is even less possible to recruit them through this.
So his statement is obviously not valid.
"Tell him why I saved you."
Seeing Qin Qiong being questioned, Li Yuanji smiled and said to Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin.
Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin's expressions instantly turned ugly, and they hesitated for a long time without saying a word.
It's not that they don't know how to say it, it's that they don't have the nerve to say it.
Because the reason why Li Yuanji saved them was purely because Li Shimin made a deal with Qin Qiong and Li Yuanji.
Qin Qiong was finally sold by Li Shimin.
So they feel guilty and find it difficult to speak, and they don't know what to say at all.
The reason why they kept hiding it from Qin Qiong was that they found it difficult to tell them and were afraid that Qin Qiong would not be able to bear such a blow.
After all, for those of them who are relatively loyal, Li Shimin's behavior is really difficult for them to accept.
After all, they were not even afraid of death for Li Shimin, but Li Shimin sold one of them as a commodity. How would the person involved feel better knowing that?
What's more important is that Li Shimin did this not for the sake of the country or his ambition, but to save people with the same status as the person involved.
In this case, what will the parties think?
Having worked for Li Shimin through life and death for many years, in Li Shimin's heart he is not even as good as a thug?
If the person involved knows this, why shouldn't he explode?!
"Zhijie, what's going on?"
Qin Qiong waited for a long time, but did not wait for Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin to reply. Looking sideways, she saw that Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin had different expressions on their faces. Their expressions also changed immediately, and she asked in a hoarse voice.
Obviously, Qin Qiong guessed from the expressions of Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin that there might be something detrimental to him, or something that would be inconvenient to tell him.
Qin Qiong did not ask Yuchi Gong, but chose to ask Cheng Yaojin directly. Obviously he knew that Yuchi Gong would not give him an answer, and Cheng Yaojin was the only one who could not lie to him.
Cheng Yaojin looked embarrassed when Qin Qiong asked him, and sighed helplessly: "Second brother, please stop asking..."
Qin Qiong's eyes widened little by little, and he growled: "Do you think His Highness King Qi can tell this matter in public and let you continue to hide it?"
Cheng Yaojin looked hesitant, and looked up at Li Yuanji. A trace of pleading flashed in his eyes, and it passed quickly. However, he did not ask Li Yuanji not to tell the matter, but fell into silence.
Li Yuanji could see that Cheng Yaojin was struggling deep in his heart.
On the one hand, he wanted to suppress this matter and hide it, but on the other hand, he felt that this matter could not be suppressed or hidden at all.
So he was hesitating whether to ask people to suppress the matter or to speak out about it happily.
"Zhijie, you and I have been brothers for many years. You know my temper. Do you really want to hide it from me?"
Cheng Yaojin was still struggling deep in his heart, but Qin Qiong had lost his patience and started shouting not long after Cheng Yaojin fell into silence.
Cheng Yaojin gritted his teeth and whispered, "Your Highness gave you to His Highness King Qi, and then His Highness King Qi agreed to save Jingde and me..."
After Cheng Yaojin said this, his whole body seemed to have been drained, and he slumped on the kang helplessly, looking at the top of the kiln with some absent-mindedness.
Yuchi Gong opened his mouth several times, but no words came out. In the end, he just let out a long sigh.
Both Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong actually wanted to explain to Li Shimin.
But they thought hard and couldn't think of a reason to explain Li Shimin.
Because from a moral point of view, Li Shimin really did something wrong.
There is no need to wash it, and there is no need to explain it.
Qin Qiong's eyes quickly enlarged at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and she stared blankly in the direction of Cheng Yaojin, without saying a word for a long time.
He couldn't believe his ears, couldn't believe that this was true, and couldn't believe that Li Shimin would really do such a thing.
If you use him in exchange for the opportunity to treat Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin, then what does he mean?
Why not use Yu Chigong or Cheng Yaojin in exchange for a chance to treat him?
