His Majesty Li Er was sitting on the brocade couch, motionless, with a gloomy look on his face.
Li Daozong still maintained a slightly hunched posture. After reporting the matter about Chang Sun Bao, His Majesty the Emperor did not let him lie flat as per the courtesy. He could only stand awkwardly like this, but did not dare to move a little bit...
…
There was only a two-year age difference between Li Daozong and His Majesty Li Er. Unlike Li Yuanchang and others who were close to the hidden prince Li Jiancheng, he was just behind Li Shimin, his second brother.
, made countless meritorious deeds. From the beginning to the end, this cousin favored and protected him. When he was injured in the war, Li Shimin personally helped him apply medicine. When he was imprisoned for corruption, Li Shimin simply dismissed him from office.
That's it, he started to be reused again in a blink of an eye. He failed in the battle. Instead of blaming him, Li Shimin was lenient and just cut off the scapegoat...
Li Daozong was extremely familiar with his cousin who was an emperor.
He could feel the anger and turmoil in the heart of the Nine-Five Master at this moment!
The calmer you are, the more fierce the storm is brewing!
If we were to pick out all the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty and make a judgment, the person whom His Majesty Li Er trusted the most was not Li Daozong, not Fang Xuanling, not Cheng Yaojin, not Hou Junji, not Li Ji, but... Changsun Wuji
!
His Majesty Li Er met him as a young man, and they have gone through ups and downs hand in hand. It can be said that they have a deep friendship.
In the thirteenth year of Daye, the great ancestor Li Yuan launched an army in Taiyuan. After crossing the Yellow River, Wuji went to pay an audience and got a clerkship. From then on, he followed Li Shimin in the south and north, and stayed with him. From the conquest of Xue Ju to the defeat of Hulao Pass
Dou Jiande, from the majestic battlefield of thousands of miles of war to the battle of wealth and majesty and intrigues, Changsun Wuji has always been by His Majesty Li Er's side, loyal and loyal. During the Xuanwumen Incident, he followed His Majesty Li Er in ambush at Xuanwumen.
Uncle Gao Shilian guarded the palace of the King of Qin, and his sister, Queen Changsun, personally came out to appease the soldiers. The whole family was on the front line of the power struggle, ready to sacrifice their lives for the King of Qin at any time.??
After everything, how could His Majesty Li Er distrust Changsun Wuji?
But the most piercing pain comes from the closest betrayal!
Although it is very likely that Changsun Wuji did not know what Changsun Chong did, but did he treat Changsun Chong poorly?
At a young age, he appointed him as Zong Zhengqing and became a powerful figure in the royal family. He even married his most beloved daughter to him and spared no effort to cultivate him to become the next generation of powerful ministers in the empire. He even gave him the Shenji Camp founded by Fang Jun.
!
But in the end, he discovered that the son-in-law whom he loved, trusted, and supported with all his strength was a white-eyed wolf!
This kind of anger at being deceived, Li Daozong could clearly feel it from His Majesty Li Er even from a distance of one foot.
I can't help but cry secretly in my heart: I wonder if we will suffer a disaster when His Majesty thunders and wraths later? We should soften our hearts and drag Fang Jun over. It can be regarded as a shield to some extent, and at least we can share some of the pressure...
Unexpectedly, the expected storm did not come as expected.
His Majesty Li Er took a deep breath and did not get angry, but his calm tone made Li Daozong even more frightened.
"Who else knows about this matter?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Fang Jun... also participated in the interrogation with Wei Chen." Li Daozong silently apologized in his heart. His Majesty Li Er would not involve Fang Jun in this matter without asking him, but since His Majesty Li Er asked,
He wouldn't dare lie even to death.
"Why is he everywhere?" His Majesty Li Er said in an unhappy tone, and was a little surprised.
Li Daozong was a little confused and couldn't figure out the meaning of His Majesty Li Er's words. It seemed that Fang Jun had done something terrible again?
Then he carefully told the truth about Fang Jun's request to see him to discuss business and the discovery of the suspicious Changsun Bao.
His Majesty Li Er listened silently and was speechless for a long time.
After Li Daozong finished speaking, he stood aside and closed his mouth tightly.
This matter not only involves His Highness the Crown Prince, but also has a great connection with Changsun Wuji. As long as he is not a fool, he will never express any opinions easily. How to deal with it? The emperor has the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart. How can outsiders comment?
After a long time, His Majesty Li Er sighed quietly: "It's really hard on him..."
Li Daozong didn't answer, but he knew in his heart that the emperor was referring to His Highness the Crown Prince.
Thinking about it in my heart, I do feel guilty for the prince...
There was such a poisonous snake lying next to him. Not only did he plan to cause the prince to fall off his horse and break his leg, he even falsely accused the King of Wei and assassinated the King of Wei to frame the blame. There were other little tricks that were definitely indispensable. The prince was slandering and slandering him bit by bit.
During the design, it gradually lost the favor of the emperor.
How vicious is this person to deliberately frame someone? On the one hand, he wants to kill the other person, on the other hand, he also wants to show a look of deep brotherhood in front of outsiders, and on the other hand, he has all kinds of poisonous schemes.
The dazzling display was just to destroy the prince's status and honor...
Li Daozong felt ice-cold in his heart. This Changsun Chong was actually so vicious. He was really beyond his appearance!
But Li Daozong still couldn't accept His Majesty Li Er's words.
Fortunately, His Majesty Li Er just sighed to himself, and then said: "I know this matter well. How to deal with it, Chengfan, you don't have to ask."
Chengfan is the name of Li Daozong.
Li Daozong responded, but he was suspicious in his heart: Is it possible that His Majesty already hates the Crown Prince so much that he wants to keep such a major secret secret, and is determined to depose the Crown Prince and support King Wei to ascend to the throne?
It was inevitable that he felt a little guilty for the prince.
It was clear that Chang Sun Chong had designed to frame the prince, but His Majesty turned a blind eye, which was really unjustifiable. Moreover, in comparison, he preferred the gentle and friendly Li Chengqian to the talented and arrogant Li Tai.
However, this was a family matter for the emperor, so naturally he would not express his feelings in front of the emperor, he would just feel sorry for the prince in his heart.
That's all...
*****
When Fang Jun returned to the farm, it happened that Li Tai came back from visiting friends and met at the gate.
Looking at Fang Jun's dark face, which was so gloomy that it could drip with water, Li Tai's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason...and then he felt a little angry.
How come you, the majestic prince, are actually a little afraid of this boy?
Then he coughed lightly and said: "Fang Er, give some of the cherries in your greenhouse to me tomorrow. I want to give you a favor."
Although Fang Jun has always disliked him, he behaved in a very dignified manner and did not care about trivial matters. Besides, His Majesty the King of Wei asked for some cherries. Looking at the Tang Dynasty, there will still be people who refuse.
What?
But who would have thought, he was actually rejected...
Fang Jun looked at Li Tai with a gloomy face, and said in a calm tone: "Do you think that this country belongs to your Li family, and the people in the world also belong to your Li family, so your Li family can do whatever you want without worrying about others?
Opinions and feelings?”
Li Tai was a little confused and said displeasedly: "I don't understand what you are saying. It's just some cherries. Would you like to give them to me?" If it weren't for the fact that the only output of your Fang's greenhouse in the winter is this, do you think I would?
Ink you?
Ordinary people give it to me for free, but I don’t hesitate to take it!
Unexpectedly, the Fang family's answer was even more straightforward: "No."
He lifted his legs and walked towards the backyard, leaving Li Tai with the back of his head.
Li Tai almost fainted with anger!
He became angry and said: "Fang Er, don't bully others too much! Do you think you are guilty of being so disrespectful and ignorant of dignity?"
The Fang family had already walked through the door. Hearing this, they turned around and showed a disdainful smile.
"You are so arrogant and disrespectful. What are you going to do? Beat me up? You are no match. It's obvious whoever beats whom! Go complain to His Majesty and then kill my head? Then you can do it anyway
Go, Fang’s great head will be kept by His Highness!”
Li Tai was dumbfounded, watching Fang Jun say harsh words and walk away. Then he felt that this guy was a little weird today. Where did he get angry? I was angry?
He turned around and stopped Xi Junmai: "What's going on with your Bangchui today?"
Xi Junmai didn't have a good impression of Li Tai, but he was His Highness the Prince after all, and Xi Junmai was not his Marquis, so he had to stand firm and said: "If His Highness can listen to the next advice, don't go at this time."
Provoking the Marquis. When the Marquis was angry, he couldn't even control what he did..."
