Chapter Eighteen
Li Yuanai looked at Liu Hao with bright eyes.
Liu Hao returned with a horrified look. He knew that as long as he started writing, he would not be able to return to Chang'an alive.
But as Li Yuanai said, his family may be able to be safe, and his expression is unstable.
Li Yuanai continued: "Since I have opened this, no matter whether you write or not, you will never be able to live."
Liu Hao bewitched the people and ignored the lives and deaths of thousands of disasters and people. Such people have no choice but to die, and they are not worthy of sympathy at all.
When Liu Hao heard these straightforward words, his face was even bloodless.
Li Yuanai was actually not sure who was behind the scenes. The words he said to Di Renjie were just a comment.
But both him and Di Renjie were sure that Cao Jiang was a little bit like that, and there was someone behind Liu Hao.
Cao Jiang, a native of a country, finally became a local gentry and was very famous in the Jianghuai area.
How could such a character rebel? Even if he had a hundred rebellious bones on the back of his head, he would not choose this opportunity to rebel.
A group of victims who were trapped by natural disasters and had difficulty walking in hungry rebelled?
Not to mention mobilizing the troops of war in Guanzhong to suppress the rebellion, the guards in Yangzhou can be put to an end.
Inciting people's riots is nothing more than creating turmoil and giving you no excuse to return to Chang'an.
In this situation, there are only a few people who are so afraid of returning to Beijing.
But Li Yuanai didn't intend to go into it in depth, and it was not the time to turn against each other directly.
Changsun Wuji is in great momentum now. He holds a seat for two ministers who are entrusted with orphans, and one is his clique. In addition, Liu Shi, the foreign relative, is the prime minister. If you really want to overturn the table and fight hard, it is still unknown who will win.
Even if you win, it will be a miserable victory.
The internal friction of the temple party has caused no less than a large-scale military defeat.
Both sides suffered losses, and the political forces of the Tang Dynasty were all hurt, and the gains were not worth the loss.
Li Zhi bypassed Changsun Wuji and lit the knife at Liu Shi, but he was unwilling to face Changsun Wuji head-on. It was not that he dared not, but that he could not.
Although the mastermind cannot be investigated, Li Yuanai did not let go of the card that was delivered to the door.
Changsun Wuji's alliance seems powerful, but it has a fatal point.
This fatal point is not in the alliance between new and old foreign relatives, but simply in Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji cares too much about that sister who has been dead for many years.
Empress Changsun does have extraordinary charm, and even after she has passed away for many years, she still has great influence.
Whether in the hearts of Li Shimin, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Zhi, Changsun Wuji, etc., there are existences that cannot be forgotten and given up.
Changsun Wuji didn't care who the emperor was, he only cared about whether he was his sister Empress Changsun's son.
Empress Changsun had only three sons, among which Li Chengqian had committed rebellion and exile and had died of illness. Only Li Tai and Li Zhi were left.
Needless to say, Li Zhi himself.
Li Tai demoted Li Shimin from Chang'an for the crime of fighting for the throne, but strictly speaking, Li Tai did not directly attack Li Chengqian, but just recruited talents blindly and constantly used Li Shimin's favor to show himself.
Therefore, even when Li Chengqian defended himself, he only said that he felt Li Tai's threat, and the two did not break up...
Li Tai deprived Li Shimin of his qualifications because of his stupid words like killing his son and returning to the title of King Donglai. He has never had any major mistakes.
There is nothing wrong with this. Second, it has a good foundation in the temple and is even more supported by Shilin, so it is qualified to reach the throne.
If Changsun Wuji really wanted to force him to be impatient, he would carry Li Tai out to entrust the power of the orphanage minister to assist the government, and he might not be able to do the decree.
Li Yuanai poured dirty water on Li Tai, which was to remove firewood from the bottom of the cauldron.
Get confessions from Liu Hao and Cao Jiang, and then remove them, assuming that they are silenced.
Even though Li Yuanai cannot produce definite evidence here, as long as Dali Temple uses this as an excuse to investigate Li Tai, it is impossible for him to find out the evidence.
After all, Li Tai has never given up on the position of supreme. He has always made small moves behind his influence in Shilin, his former confidant Fang Yiai, Chai Lingwu and others.
With the crime on his face, it would be difficult for Changsun Wuji to establish Li Tai.
He could not choose another prince!
This is his biggest weakness.
Exhaust the firewood from the bottom of the cauldron.
************
Luoyang, Dali Temple.
Changsun Wuji checked the case file in his hand until the end, and he let out a long sigh. Li Shimin's instructions appeared in his mind, and he thought with a little aftertaste: "Your entrustment, Wuji has completed."
This file was the largest case after Li Zhi ascended the throne, and it was also the most uneasy thing that Li Shimin was at sanctioned.
Fang Yiai’s rebellion case!
Compared to Li Chengqian's rebelliousness and incompetence, Li Tai does indeed have the style of a crown prince.
He is respectful to the wise and talented, and has a large number of scholars and great scholars, including the second generation of meritorious officials such as Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu, as well as the support of officials such as Cen Wenben, Liu Shi, Wei Ting and Du Chuke.
These people are undoubtedly the biggest uneasy factor in Li Zhi's ascension to the throne. Li Shimin wiped out Liu Yan, Wei Ting, Du Chuke for Li Zhi, but after Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu's achievements, due to the love between Fang Xuanling, Chai Shao and Princess Pingyang, he was really hard to do, so he could only hand it over to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji wanted to start with Li Ke, but she didn't want Fang Yiai, so Princess Gaoyang jumped out on her own initiative.
They underestimated Li Zhi, regarded him as a mediocre person, and directly conspired to rebel.
Changsun Wuji followed the situation and used the couple as a breakthrough point to pull out Li Tai Party bit by bit, and suppressed his political enemies.
Such a major case was not resolved overnight. From the initiation of the case to the trial of the three departments, there were various involvements and various complex confessions.
Often, they arrested one batch after another, and then investigated and collected evidence. The Li Tai party, who was open and secret, took more than two years to pull out one by one.
The people involved in the case include the sixth son of Emperor Gaozu, Li Yuanjing, the highest-ranking royal family of Li Tang, Li Ke, the third son of Emperor Taizong, Li Daozong, the sixth son of Emperor Taizong, the famous general of Shu Li Yan, the famous general Xue Wanche, the second generation of Zhishili, Fang Yiai, the second generation of meritorious fathers, Chai Lingwu and their wives, Princess Gaoyang, Princess Baling, and Prime Minister Yuwen Jie, etc., all of them are important figures...
Catch them and their followers in one go...
At this point, Li Tai's confidants in the temple have disappeared.
"Seal this case!"
Changsun Wuji's "seal of the case" undoubtedly declared that the widespread rebellion case ended here.
The Dali Temple Minister, the Minister of Justice and the Censor, who assisted in the case, fell into his heart. As the deputy of Changsun Wuji, they also realized that their superiors were determined to do something.
For example, there are obvious doubts about Li Daozong's case, and Li Tai party student formed Li Ke party, etc., but Changsun Wuji is in power. They say they are deputys, but they have no intention of talking with their assistants. They can't speak. If they can close the case, it will be better.
Changsun Wuji asked the three of them to handle the last thing and returned to the mansion. He couldn't help but recall Li Zhi's expression of begging him to transfer Li Yuanai back to the temple, and asked someone to call Changsun Wen.
Looking at his diligent and steady son, Changsun Wuji signaled him to take his seat and asked, "What's wrong with King Pu now?"
King Pu is Li Tai.
Changsun Wen replied: "I am already at peace and have been drinking all day long. I believe I already know that all his trump cards have been removed by his father, and there is no possibility of turning over again."
