Li Ye thought about it over and over, but still didn't have any clue.
I deliberately don't think that my uncle Liu Mingzhi is the man who is suspected of having his feet on the seven stars in the motto of Qin Tian Jian, but his mind can't help but focus on the issue of scars.
Can the theory of destiny be trusted?
"senior!"
Li Ye softly called "Senior", and a figure covered in a black cloak walked out of the wing of the back hall and walked in front of Li Ye unhurriedly.
"See Your Majesty."
Li Ye looked at the figure in a black cloak silently, hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"Senior, it's true that we can't find out who is making lies and deceiving the public. Is Liu Mingzhi the one who is blaming uncle Liu Mingzhi?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Twelve Shadow Protectors and the shadow guards under their command have tried their best to investigate the source of the news, but still found nothing.
In the whole world, among the forces that I know, the only one who can be so invisible is Liu Yedi, a member of the Liu family who is willing to spend money.
There are also admirals and spies from the Kingdom of Jin who also have this ability, but now that the Kingdom of Jin has too much time to take care of themselves, how can they have time to do these things?
Of course, it is not ruled out that the Golden Empress still wants to make a last stand.
If it were Brother Liu Ye, this would not make sense at all. Although King Bingjian has been in his own family for many years, he is still the eldest son of the Liu family and one of the young masters of the Liu family.
Brother Liu Ye has no reason to frame his young master, saying that he is a man of destiny with seven stars at his feet.
House slaves are not ordinary slaves, but some people who have been carefully selected to stay. These people are called house slaves, or they are also called dead soldiers.
It has never happened before for a dead soldier to frame his master.
But after checking again and again, there are no more clues."
Li Ye was stunned for a while, looking at the man in black robe silently.
"If it's grandpa and father, what will they do after they find out about this rumor that may be driving a wedge between the emperor and his ministers?"
"It's hard to say what the late emperor said. He has only been on the throne for a short period of time, and the emperor's character has not yet been deeply rooted. Ruizhong will do his best to investigate. If nothing is found, it may be..."
Although the man in black robe did not finish what he said, the meaning behind it was self-evident.
Li Ye's eyes were blank for a moment and he murmured softly.
"possible....."
Li Ye pondered for a long time and handed the note in his hand to the man in black robe in front of him.
"Senior, please read what's on the note."
"Yes, I am bold!"
The man in black robe took the note from Li Ye, held it and read it carefully for a while.
"Scars, instead of the seven stars that represent the destiny of the person's feet?"
"Yes, senior, do you think this is a coincidence or..."
"I don't dare to lie. I have fought alongside the king in the south and north, and fought east and west for many years. It is normal for me to have some scars on my body.
However, it is difficult for people who are not close to know that there are scars in such a secret place on the soles of the feet. However, it is not ruled out that it spread through the mouths of the maids and was taken advantage of by someone with intentions.
Another example is the Golden Empress!
The story of King Bingjian and Empress Jin is known all over the world. Although the two of them are not named husband and wife, they have been married for a long time.
When we sleep in the same bed, it is not surprising to know that the scars on King Bingjian's body are not surprising.
It is not impossible to take advantage of this incident to create a gap between His Majesty and King Bingjian, and thus cause our Dalong to fall into civil strife, so that the Kingdom of Jin can gain a glimmer of hope.
It's just that these are my speculations, and it will take some time to verify them to be true.
I can't give your Majesty any good advice on how to deal with this matter. All you have to do is obey your orders.
I will act as Your Majesty orders me!"
Looking at the respectful man in black robe, Li Ye's expression fell into confusion.
After a long time, Li Ye held up the tea cup in front of him with slightly trembling arms: "Senior, please step aside and let me think about it."
"According to the order, I retire."
The man in black robe left the main hall again and hibernated in the wing of the imperial study.
"Xiao Dezi!"
Xiao Dezi's slightly nervous voice immediately came from outside the imperial study: "We are here! Please give us your Majesty's orders."
"I'm going to Yi'an Palace to pay my respects to my mother."
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has returned to the Prince's Mansion for a short stay as usual and is not in Yi'an Palace at the moment."
"Bring me some casual clothes. I'll go visit my grandmother first, and then go to the prince's old residence."
"According to the decree."
About half an hour later, Li Ye walked out of Nangong Meng's palace with an inexplicable expression.
This is a look that cannot be described in words. Although it is not clear what the grandfather and grandson talked about, based on the silent reaction of Xiao Dezi and a group of young eunuchs, we can probably guess what the grandfather and grandson were talking about.
The result seems a little unpleasant.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Are you still going to the Prince's old residence?"
"go!"
"According to the order, we will make arrangements immediately."
Li Ye and others left the palace gate and rushed towards the location of the prince's old residence.
The guests at some stalls outside the palace gate also quietly disappeared as they watched the group of people disappear.
In the Liu Mansion, Liu Zhi'an was holding a thrush and teasing it. After listening to Liu Yuan's words, he threw a wooden stick on the table and walked towards the desk on the side.
"Has Yuan Wushu's identity been found out?"
"Reporting to the master, this person is a scholar from Huangzhou Tiandi Temple. His reputation has not been known since he entered the temple.
After the former Qintian Supervisor returned to his hometown, this person was elected by the officials of the Qintian Supervisor to assume the position of Supervisor.
The purple star is dark, and the greedy wolf star appears.
With your feet on the seven stars, the emperor's star hangs in the north. This motto was based on the Qin Tian Jian's survey of the fortunes for the coming year at the end of each year.
This motto was not circulated in the court, but was presented to His Majesty's Dragon Case alone.
All the officials knew was that Yuan Wushu was severely punished by His Majesty, but it was not clear why.
Whether the Qin Tian Jian Zheng was taken seriously has always been related to whether the emperor of the dynasty valued the theory of destiny and respected the affairs of heaven and man.
Obviously, the young His Majesty does not believe too much in these mythical things, thinking that they are just lies and deceptive remarks.
But judging from the reactions of the people in the palace.
Although His Majesty didn't quite believe it, he still tried to test the young master with the idea of rather trusting him than trusting him.
As for the outcome, it is not clear yet.
However, according to previous intelligence, His Majesty has regarded the young master as one of the stumbling blocks in his desire to consolidate imperial power after unifying the world.
There are various signs that His Majesty does not want a powerful vassal king like a young master to affect the stability of the world after the world is unified.
He desperately wanted to deprive the young master of his position as vassal king and recall him to the court to report on his duties.
In this way, every move of the young master will be under the eyes of His Majesty, and there will be almost no major problems.
It seems that the young master's hundreds of thousands of invincible elite cavalry have made His Majesty quite fearful.
If His Majesty wants to centralize imperial power, he will inevitably go to war with local political power.
The leader of the local political power is still the young master, the one-word king.
If the king, who is the most outstanding prince, does not support his majesty's move to centralize power, it will be difficult for his majesty to eliminate the vassal status of the princes of the Lee family.
Completing centralization is nothing more than a utopia.
However, as of now, His Majesty's behavior toward the young master is quite gentle and has not reached the point of a complete break.
As for how things will develop in the end, it’s hard to say.”
Liu Zhi'an gently fiddled with the tea foam floating on the tea water: "He is an ambitious and ambitious monarch, but unfortunately he acts too hastily and does not know how to think twice before acting.
The gangster is not a person who is greedy for power. After the unification of the world, as long as the daughter-in-law and granddaughter of my husband Jin Guo are completely safe and stable.
At that time, it was easy for His Majesty to reduce the vassal power and centralize power. After ensuring the safety of his wife, children, and family, he would definitely support His Majesty's decision as usual with his gangster character.
However, our little Majesty has the same ambition and absolute desire to control as his grandfather, but his ability to judge people is not the same as his grandfather's.
After all, I am still too young and do not understand the behavior and character of the gangster.
This is the temperament of a stubborn donkey, who will go backwards if he is not led away.
His Majesty's behavior has aroused the displeasure and vigilance of the gangster.
The more eager he is to take back power, the harder the gangster will rebound.
Because this kind of His Majesty is beyond his control and past knowledge.
The bastard has assisted three generations of emperors and knows very well what the emperor's character is like.
The more Your Majesty is forced to take back his power, the less the gangster dares to gamble on the safety of his wife and children in the north.
In a word, His Majesty succeeded to the throne too hastily, and has never experienced the true power of an emperor.
After all, the true meaning cannot be obtained by relying solely on what you learn from books.
Otherwise, he would definitely not act like this.
It can only be said to be God’s will!”
"What should we do with the young master? Do we want to inform him of the information we found?"
"No, I am no longer able to interfere in the affairs of the bastards. Let the Nei Liu disciples wait and see what happens!"
"yes!"
"Have you not found this old guy Li Buyi yet?"
"No, Wailiu sent out 70% of his brothers, but still found nothing. It's like this man disappeared between heaven and earth."
"Keep checking!"
"clear!"
A voice came from the roof outside the study: "Master, we have information!"
"pass!"
After a moment, Liu Zhi'an narrowed his eyes slightly and threw the burning note into the brazier.
