On the contrary, it made him even more helpless and even felt a little bitter in his heart.
Finally, he looked up at Changsun Wuji.
"Uncle, you'd better not get involved in this matter."
"Because you are not just my uncle."
Hearing this, Changsun Wuji was suddenly stunned.
The purpose of his coming here today is to hear a few words of truth from Li Chengqian's mouth. ??
But after hearing this truth, it is a bit too shocking.
Li Chengqian's words were nothing more than telling him that this matter had something to do with his nephew.
There are three nephews of his eldest son Wuji who are qualified to inherit the throne.
Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Zhi.
Li Zhi is young, less than one year old.
The only one who has the ability to plan all this is Li Tai.
Changsun Wuji looked straight at Li Chengqian for a long time.
Finally, he stood up and walked out.
Looking at his back, Li Chengqian smiled helplessly.
He didn't want to say it at first.
But something Changsun Wuji said also woke him up.
Is he, Li Chengqian, so easy to bully?
Ignore him or ignore him, but you should also give him a beating to keep him low-key.
Otherwise it will only make him more unscrupulous.
Li Chengqian squinted his eyes and looked out the door.
"No matter how you set me up, I accept it."
"But if one day you dare to touch the people around me..."
"Then don't blame me for being heartless..."
…
At the foot of Huashan Mountain.
Cheng Yaojin led a hundred Shenwu army cavalry to the woods where the accident occurred.
But he obviously arrived a little late, as the assassin's body had already been cleaned up.
Even the bloodstains at the scene were cleaned up.
If he hadn't seen the stone on the roadside that Li Shimin had mentioned, Cheng Yaojin would have even thought that he was in the wrong place.

Cheng Yaojin touched the tiny holes on the stone that were hit by the arrows, raised his lips and said, "It's really amazing, even the blood stains were removed."
The deputy general on the side couldn't help but ask: "General, what should we do next?"
Cheng Yaojin touched his beard and said, "Bring fifty brothers in disguise and go to the homes of the surrounding people to inquire about it."
"I, Old Cheng, don't believe that these hundred or so people could sneak in here silently."
The deputy general should intervene.
He turned around and went down to order the soldiers.
Cheng Yaojin walked aside and peeled off the thin layer of soil on the ground with his bare hands, revealing a pool of dark red blood inside.
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin stood up directly and said: "Everyone is there. Now we start searching within a three-mile radius. I, Old Cheng, don't believe it. They didn't leave anything behind."
The remaining fifty Shenwu troops were also unambiguous and dismounted one after another and started searching the surrounding areas.
But the place was cleaned very cleanly.
If it weren't for the puddles of blood being pulled out.
I'm afraid no one would believe that a fierce battle took place here a few days ago.
Fifty people started in the morning and continued until dusk without stopping.
And hard work pays off.
In the evening, a Shenwu soldier came to Cheng Yaojin carrying a face towel to cover his face.
Taking the face towel, Cheng Yaojin first smelled it and then rubbed it.
Cheng Yaojin said directly: "Okay, there's no need to look for it anymore, I have the answer."
The deputy general next to him was puzzled and asked: "General, with just this piece of facecloth, do you have the answer?"
"certainly."
Cheng Yaojin stuffed the black scarf into his arms: "Let the brothers withdraw, and call back the brothers who are investigating outside."
"Let me tell you, I have the answer."
After saying that, he didn't care what the deputy general's expression was and walked directly to his battle station.
Beside the horse.
"I will return to the palace first to resume my duties. After you are all assembled, you will rest where you are and report back to the military camp tomorrow."
Afterwards, Cheng Yaojin urged his horse to leave.
Only a group of Shenwu soldiers were left, looking at each other in confusion.
…
Huashan is only more than two hundred miles away from Chang'an.
If you drive fast, you can arrive there even if you take a day's rest on the way.
But it was already ten o'clock in the evening when Cheng Yaojin set out.
So as soon as we walked halfway, it got dark.
Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin said to the two people on the left and right: "Let's find a place to rest first. It's too late to rush on tomorrow."
As the Duke of the country, Cheng Yaojin had the right to live in the local official residence.
But he found it troublesome, so he randomly found a posthouse to rest while passing through a county town.
You can wait until midnight.
Suddenly there was a slight sound outside the room.
That was the sound of someone tiptoeing across the corridor.
Cheng Yaojin was lying on the bed motionless, as if he didn't know anything.
With a soft creak, the door was opened a crack.
Then a black shadow quickly slipped in through the gap.
He turned his head and glanced at Cheng Yaojin on the bed. After finding that he was still asleep, he gently closed the door.
After closing the door, the figure did not move.
Maybe it's adapting to the environment in the room.
Or maybe he was testing whether the person on the bed was really asleep.
Wait until you hear the deafening snore.
Only then did this person finally relax his vigilance.
He raised his legs and landed lightly, slowly approaching Cheng Yaojin on the bed.
On the way, he had already pulled out a bright dagger.
When he reached Cheng Yaojin, he aimed at Cheng Yaojin's neck, slowly raised the dagger, and prepared to stab him.
But at the moment when the dagger was about to fall.
Cheng Yaojin, who had closed his eyes tightly, suddenly open one's eyes.
Without saying a word, he raised his fist and hit the man on the chest.
Cheng Yaojin was extremely powerful, and the punch came so fast and urgent that the opponent took three big steps backwards before he could stabilize his body.
Cheng Yaojin also took this opportunity to jump out of bed.
Cheng Yaojin said with a smile: "Finally I've waited for you."
"It's not in vain that I, Old Cheng, worked so hard to plan."
Hearing this, the man's figure visibly paused.
I thought to myself: "Oops, I've been fooled."
Cheng Yaojin's strategy is very simple. He just bets that the other party's informants will be around him.
Then he directed and acted the scene of finding the hijab and going to report to Li Shimin.
The purpose of doing this is naturally to draw out the eyeliner.
Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "Here, take off your face towel and let me, Old Cheng, see whose son you are."
The man just glared at Cheng Yaojin fiercely, then picked up the dagger and stabbed Cheng Yaojin in the chest.
Cheng Yaojin turned slightly to avoid the opponent's knife.
Then he took a step forward and approached the opponent.
Before the other person could react, he punched that person on the chin from bottom to top.
This punch sent the man, who weighed nearly 1,560 kilograms, backwards and backwards.
The huge body collapsed the carved wooden bed, and the man fainted on the spot.
"Why bother?"
"Why do you need to force me, Old Cheng, to take action?"
Is Cheng Yaojin a vegetarian?
Without this excellent ability, how could he be Li Shimin's bodyguard?
Just when Cheng Yaojin was feeling proud, the door was pushed open.
Two guys dressed in ordinary people's clothes walked in from outside.
Cheng Yaojin ordered without raising his head: "Gag this man and tie him up, and hand him over to His Majesty for personal interrogation after he returns to the palace."
"Remember, even if you break his hands and feet, you must prevent him from hurting himself."
