After walking out of the palace, Li Yuanjing looked at the spacious sky street in front of him, then looked up at the clear sky, took a deep breath of air, and felt as if he was reborn.
The breeze blew by, sending a chill through my body. Only then did I realize that my middle coat had already been soaked with sweat and was sticking to my body...
It’s like walking into hell!
He knew the character of His Majesty Li Er very well. Back then, the Xuanwu sect beheaded Jiancheng and Yuanji, and then exterminated their entire families. All males were killed regardless of whether they were adults or not. He had watched helplessly as Jiancheng's two youngest sons
King Runan and King Julu cried and begged their second uncle for mercy, but Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong hanged themselves to death in the mansion...
They were the siblings of His Majesty Li Er's mother. He had been with him since he was a child, and his relationship was much deeper than his own.
However, when the whole family was wiped out, was there ever a moment of separation?
Li Yuanjing understood that as long as He Qian Chengji and others revealed their plans, what awaited him would be a fate that would be ten times more miserable than that of Yuan Ji when he was built!
Fortunately, I made the right bet...
You know that he is a selfish person who is seeking fame and fame and is very happy with his achievements. He is also arrogant and has never put the heroes of the world in his eyes.
As for his own plot, whether His Majesty Li Er knows about it is one thing. Whether he dares to kill him or not is another matter entirely.
However, you must clamp your tail tightly from now on, and you must not make any mistakes, otherwise you will definitely die miserably if you are caught by your pigtails...

Ma Zhou walked in front with an expressionless face.
He naturally understood His Majesty Li Er's concerns. As the emperor's favorite, how could he not understand the emperor's thoughts?
Therefore, although he was reluctant in every possible way, he did not vigorously criticize him.
He considers himself a critic, but unlike Wei Zheng who has no scruples in criticizing His Majesty Li Er in all aspects, he knows where His Majesty Li Er's bottom line is and is willing to touch His Majesty Li Er's bottom line.
Compromise.
The king of a country must naturally have the dignity of a king. How can he allow his ministers to slander, attack and annihilate him at will?
As a minister, you naturally have the responsibilities of a minister. You must be diligent in government affairs and do your best to serve the king, but you must not trample on the emperor's face without any scruples.
Otherwise, the ruler will not rule and his ministers will not obey him, which is not the right way.
But in the final analysis, I am still dissatisfied with His Majesty Li Er's compromise this time...
Ma Zhou left the palace and walked a few steps. His subordinates had already led the horse. He took the reins and got on the horse. He looked at Li Yuanjing and said, "Your Majesty, please go back to the palace. I will send you back later."
The suspects were sent to the house."
Li Yuanjing waved with a smile, called his carriage over, looked at Ma Zhou and said: "How dare you bother Ma Fu Yin? I have no choice but to do what happened today, and I have to blame Ma Fu Yin Haihan for the offence. I will
Go back to Jingzhao Mansion Yamen with Ma Fuyin and take the people away, Ma Fuyin will also be clean."
He doesn't dare to leave Ma Zhou for a moment now. Although this guy is much more docile than Wei Zheng, he is also a person who does not tolerate criticism. He accepted His Majesty's imperial edict because he felt that His Majesty's dignity must be maintained in this matter. But once
He believed that even His Majesty's majesty was not enough to cover up the harm of this matter, and he would definitely refute the imperial edict without hesitation.
The Tang Dynasty was able to produce such wonderful ministers, who were made of iron and steel. As long as they recognized their own principles, not even the imperial power could crush them!
What can you do to him?
If Ma Zhou turns around and secretly interrogates Hegan Chengji and others, it will be too late for him to cry...
Ma Zhou glanced at Li Yuanjing angrily and said to himself that he didn't know what heinous crime he had done, and he risked his life to protect those beggars.
He did have the intention of sending Li Yuanjing away and immediately interrogating the beggars when he returned, but Li Yuanjing refused to leave and there was nothing he could do.
The two returned to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and Ma Zhou said: "I will take the prince to the prison and release those beggars."
Li Yuanjing said with a smile: "The king is so eager today, which has already made it very difficult for Ma Fuyin. I feel really ashamed. How dare I make Ma Fuyin tired again? Just send officials to release him. I don't dare to trouble Ma Fuyin again.
."
He Qian Chengji was originally a guard of the crown prince, and he was also considered to be a man in the officialdom. I guarantee that Qi Ma Zhou would recognize him. If the "brother-in-law"'s lies were revealed in person, everyone would be unable to step down.
Ma Zhou is incompetent, how could he know what Li Yuanjing was thinking?
Since there was no need for him to go to collect the person, he was naturally happy and relaxed, so he sent two officials with Li Yuanjing's cronies to collect the person. After a while, the officials returned and said that the person had been released.
Li Yuanjing still couldn't feel at ease in his heart. He thought about going back and sending He Qian Chengji far away. It would be best not to return to Chang'an City in this life...
After saying a few polite words, he stood up and left.
After all, he was a member of the royal family. Ma Zhou did not dare to lose his etiquette and respectfully sent him outside the gate. He watched him get on the carriage and drive away. Then he returned to the main hall and asked, "Is Duke Zhao still here?"
The official replied: "As soon as you and King Jing left, Duke Zhao left immediately."
When the matter reached such a stage, Ma Zhou was really unwilling to give in, but no matter how unwilling he was, he could not disobey the emperor's will.
He thought that since Li Yuanjing's people had been released, it would be useless to detain Changsun Wuji's people. Even if something was found during the trial, could he still rush into Prince Jing's Mansion and capture those "beggars"?
The emperor's intention was very clear. Even if Li Yuanjing's subordinates were plotting to tamper with him, he would let them go and let it go. If the evil intentions persisted, he would wait until the evidence was conclusive before striking them with a thunderous blow.
Ma Zhou entered the duty room, ordered someone to make a pot of tea, and drank a cup. He thought it would be better to sell it to Changsun Wuji to save face, so he called a clerk over and said: "The prisoner captured in the West City, Shang
There are several children of the eldest son's family. Duke Zhao just came to ask for it, but I refused. How can human feelings override the law? However, your majesty has already pardoned several people from Prince Jing's palace. It would be a bit cumbersome to pursue the children of the eldest son's family again.
It’s too much. Therefore, you should rush to the prison and release the children of the eldest grandson’s family.”
The clerk looked at the court with a look of admiration. How many people dared to reject Changsun Wuji face to face, and then made Changsun Wuji unable to have an attack?
but……
"Fu Yin, there is no one in the prison!"
Ma Yiyi was stunned: "How is that possible?"
The clerk hurriedly said: "What I mean by this official is not that there is no one in the prison, but that all those arrested from the West City have been released."
Ma Zhou was furious: "Who dares to release the prisoners in Jingzhao Mansion Prison privately? Is there any royal law?"
The official was confused: "But... you just personally ordered the governor to release the prisoners..."
Ma Zhou was stunned again and asked curiously: "I asked you to release the people from Prince Jing's Mansion, why did you release the people from the Sun family along with the company commander?"
The official also looked confused: "King Jing's cronies went into prison and took those people away together. I don't know who is from Prince Jing's house and who is from Changsun's family. We haven't tried them before."
, there is no way to identify it, and besides, Xiaguan really didn’t expect that Prince Jing’s Mansion would actually take away the Changsun family members…”
This matter seemed to be a misunderstanding, but Ma Zhouyou felt that something was wrong.
There were only a few people arrested in the prison, but Changsun Wuji and Li Yuanjing came together to demand them. Could it be that...the people Li Yuanjing wanted and the people Changsun Wuji wanted were actually these people?
What's the matter?
How do the people from Prince Jing’s Mansion get involved with the Changsun family?
Ma Zhou felt that his IQ was somewhat insufficient. After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the relationship...
Simply ignore it.
Regardless of the people in Prince Jing's Mansion or the Changsun family, I have let them go anyway, and they have nothing to do with me from now on.
As for whether the Changsun family was taken away by people from Prince Jing's Mansion, let Li Yuanjing and Changsun Wuji decide. You both have great dignity, so why don't we stay away from each other?
*****
Li Yuanjing hurried back to the palace in a hurry. When he arrived at the study, he ordered people to bring He Qian Chengji and others up. He had no intention to find out why He Qian Chengji provoked Fang Jun or caused trouble in the West City. He did not even have the mind to take care of it.
Why did He Qian Chengji massacre the soldiers guarding the Mingde Gate? He had only one thought - to send these guys away quickly.
He even considered whether to silence himself completely to avoid future troubles...
Soon, the confidant took him to the study.
Although he understood that now was not the time to hold people accountable, Li Yuanjing was still furious. As soon as the people came in, he slapped the table and angrily yelled: "Are you all pig-brained? Huh? Don't you know that this mission involves far-reaching and serious consequences? It's clean.
The task was completed neatly, why did you massacre the soldiers guarding the city, why did you provoke Fang Jun, and why... eh?"
As soon as the person came in, Li Yuanjing sprayed furiously. When he was halfway through the spray, he suddenly woke up and looked at the "beggars" in front of him with wide eyes. He pointed his finger at their noses and asked in horror: "Wait a minute."
