Tang's dining table

Chapter 687 A big deal

Li Hong smiled and said to Xiao Siye, who came back covered in blood, "The target of the assassin's assassination is me."

Xiao Siye's pupils narrowed and he clasped his fists and said: "Wei Chen understands that the target of the assassin's assassination is His Highness the Crown Prince.

I have found out that the person who plotted to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is named Zhang Jue. He is eight feet tall, has a beard, and is very powerful. He works in Luozhou Zhechong Prefecture and is the captain of the fifth team of Luozhou Zhechong Prefecture. "

Li Hong frowned and said, "Will the government soldiers plot to assassinate Gu Gu?"

Xiao Siye said: "In this area, only Zhang Jue has a bow and arrow, and a discarded bow and arrow was found in the Zhang family's shop. There is also one missing arrow in the quiver, which is consistent with the one on the ground.

Zhang Jue has fled without a trace. "

Li Hong sighed and said: "The thing I hate most is related to the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. They are all warriors of the Tang Dynasty. Why do they have to do this kind of thing if they can't do anything bad?"

This was a very meaningless statement, but it had a different meaning in the ears of Xiao Siye and other soldiers.

Xiao Siye gritted his teeth and said, "I will go and eliminate the demon atmosphere for Your Highness right now."

When Li Hong saw a large group of Jinwu guards coming in the dark outside, he pulled Naha and said, "I'll take you to the master's house."

Naha looked at the wall and said, "I'd better go back to White Horse Temple."

Li Hong followed Naha's gaze and found a large row of bald heads on the wall. The brightest ones were from the Shaolin Temple...

Seeing Naha climbing the ladder back to the White Horse Temple, Li Hong sighed and got into a carriage. The driver was a fat man as strong as a mountain. This man was obviously sent by his father.

In the Hanyuan Palace, Li Zhi gently dropped a chess piece on the chessboard. Even after hearing about his son's assassination, his hand was as steady as ever.

Wu Mei followed up by playing a stone, then picked out two black stones from the chessboard and said, "Who wants to murder our child?"

Li Zhi looked at the chessboard and said: "You will know if you look it up. Whether it is an assassination, a frame-up, a frame-up, or an advantage, in the end you cannot escape the evil nature of people's hearts."

Wu Mei frowned and said: "Naha was there at the time, and Yu Jian was directed at Naha. In this case, the person being assassinated may not be Hong'er."

Li Zhi said: "Hong'er did a good job this time. He took the matter into his own hands before he figured it out. In this way, we can ensure that tomorrow's enthronement ceremony can be held as scheduled."

Wu Mei said: "This is your son's stupidity. Naha didn't want the assassination incident to get mixed up with the monks, so she pushed the incident onto your son. She did a good job of hiding, but it made Hong'er have to bear this endless burden. Kill evildoers."

Li Zhi said indifferently: "My son listened to what I said. This is my ability. The son I gave birth to is not as good as a Hu girl. You are the one who should reflect, not Naha."

Wu Mei said: "Pei's daughter is really useless."

Li Zhi said: "Pei's daughter is not as beautiful as Naha, her temperament is not as good as Naha's, her open-mindedness is not as good as Naha's, and her status is not as good as Naha's. How can she be like Naha, the woman who grew up with Hong'er?" Where is the opponent?"

Wu Mei said: "That's all there is to a beautiful woman."

Li Zhi looked up at Wu Mei and said, "Hong'er likes Naha not because he likes her color, but because of habit."

"Habit?" Wu Mei felt a little strange.

"A woman's color is just a brick that can open a man's heart. Once a man's heart is opened, it doesn't matter if the color is good or bad as we get along for a long time. It's important to have such a trustworthy person by your side."

Wu Mei turned her head and looked at the fat giant bear that had turned into a ball and said: "Among all the giant bears, this bear is not a good color, and its temperament is not outstanding. Your Majesty can't live without it all day long. Is it because you’re used to it?”

Li Zhi laughed and said: "The clothes are not as good as new, and the people are not as good as before."

Wu Mei said angrily: "It should be because the clothes are not as good as new, and the bear is not as good as old, right?"

Li Zhi proudly kicked the giant bear's butt and said to Wu Mei, "Why are you obsessed with a bear?"

Wu Mei also kicked the giant bear on the butt and said, "Spare this bear's life!"

When Li Hong came in, he happened to see the couple taking turns kicking the bear's butt. He thought they were worried about him, but when he got closer, he realized that the two of them were laughing very happily.

Li Hong walked in, and Li Xian also hurried over, imitating his elder brother and kneeling next to his parents, looking at Li Hong from time to time, looking very nervous.

Li Hong glanced at Li Xian and said, "Isn't it the person you sent?"

Li Xian was so frightened by Li Hong's words that there was a cry in his voice.

"Father, Emperor, Mother, this matter has nothing to do with the child."

Hearing this, Li Zhi immediately lost interest in playing chess, and casually messed up the chess game. He looked at Li Xian and said, "Why are you so nervous?"

Li Xian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a stuttering tone: "My son was worried when he heard that the prince was stabbed."

The chess game was messed up by Li Zhi, but Wu Mei straightened the pieces one by one. After a while, the chess game returned to its original appearance, with every piece correct.

Li Zhi said to Wu Mei dissatisfied: "Why are you trying to scare him? Do you think he has such courage?"

Wu Mei glanced at Li Xian who was looking at her, and said indifferently: "It is always good to maintain a little respect for superiors and inferiors."

Hearing what Wu Mei said, Li Zhi suddenly felt itchy in his hands. He reached out and grabbed the giant bear's ears before he could speak. He found that Li Hong also grabbed Li Xian's ears with his hands and pinched the bear's ears with him. Same, same strong.

The giant bear was squeezed very comfortably, and Li Xian cried out sadly.

So Li Zhi let go of the giant bear's ears, and Li Hong let go of Li Xian's ears with a dry laugh.

Li Zhi asked Li Hong: "Do you think this assassination is really aimed at you?"

Li Hong shook his head and said: "It's hard to say. The arrow went straight to Naha, but it was a little higher. Naha told me that the assassin was waiting for me to take a step forward. Now that I think about it, what Naha said makes sense. .”

Li Zhi licked his lips and said after a while: "Naha has never been known for her intelligence."

Li Hongdao: "Her feelings are always accurate."

Li Zhi stood up, kicked Li Hong on the shoulder and said, "Is it the behavior of a prince to be so gullible?"

Li Hong said with a smile: "At least Naha's enthronement ceremony can be held as scheduled tomorrow. My father also happened to take advantage of the child's assassination outside the White Horse Temple to do a lot of things."

After hearing this, Li Zhi had a smile on his face and asked Li Hong: "What's the worst part about this matter?"

Li Hong sighed and looked at Li Xian next to him: "It would be best if Brother Xian did it, but unfortunately not. The worst part about this matter is that it involves Luozhou soldiers."

"What's the difference between Luozhou soldiers and Chang'an soldiers?"

"Reporting to my father, the soldiers of Chang'an Prefecture can take care of world affairs, and can take care of one's family and life, but the same cannot be said for the soldiers of Luozhou Prefecture."

"Why?"

"The soldiers of the Chang'an Prefecture are proud to be the soldiers of the Prefecture, and the soldiers of the Luozhou Prefecture are ashamed to be the soldiers of the Prefecture."

After hearing what Li Hong said, Li Xian immediately said: "They are all soldiers. Why are those from Chang'an good but not those from Luoyang? These are not oranges from Huainan. You can't eat them in Huaibei."

Li Hong raised his hand and slapped Li Xian on the forehead, causing Li Xian to sit down immediately.

Li Hong said sternly: "Although the Chang'an soldiers no longer have any reputation, the imperial court creatively arranged errands for the soldiers. They no longer benefit from the farmland, but benefit from the errands. These benefits far outweigh those of farmland.

Therefore, Chang'an's soldiers are not bad at all. The soldiers are still the same soldiers as before. They share the glory and benefits, and they are naturally loyal to me, the Li family.

This is not the case for the Luoyang soldiers. The land near Luozhou has long been allocated. The newly arrived soldiers have no land to allocate. Over the years, the Tang Dynasty has not even fought for peace and prosperity, so the soldiers naturally have no income. , in order to make a living, the soldiers of Luozhou Prefecture naturally complained about me, the Li family, and it was inevitable that there would be one or two rebellious officials and traitors.

You idiot, you didn't even understand the difference between Chang'an Prefecture soldiers and Luozhou Prefecture soldiers, so you are just talking nonsense here. "

After saying that, he kicked Li Xian again, making him sit on the ground and slide away all of a sudden.

Wu Mei, who had always been quiet, didn't know where her temper came from. She disrupted the chess game she had just arranged and said to Li Zhi: "It's up to you and your son to act like a father and a son. I, an outsider, should leave as soon as possible."

After saying that, he angrily got up and left with his stupid palace maid, Sister Chun.

Li Zhi said to Li Hong with a smile: "This is the right thing to do. If your brother does something bad, you, the elder brother, can teach him a lesson."

Li Hong looked at Li Xian and sighed: "We are brothers after all."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "Luozhou Sima Tengjin, Luozhou Zhechongfu School Captain Chen Yong, you can handle it as you please."

Li Hong frowned and said: "How to deal with Chen Yong's child is still a matter of course. Dealing with him is the second priority. The focus is to make the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion in Luozhou look like soldiers again.

It's just Luozhou Sima Tengjin. Please tell me how to deal with it. "

Li Zhi smiled and said: "I suspect that this Teng Jin is the mastermind of this assassination?"

Li Hong was surprised and said, "Is there any evidence?"

Li Zhi leaned over and looked at his son and said, "Go find him!"

Li Hong nodded and left in a hurry. He felt that he had understood something, but it seemed like it was nothing. He really wanted to go to the master for advice now.

Seeing Li Hong's back leaving Hanyuan Hall, Li Zhi looked at the aggrieved and crying Li Xian and said, "Your brother will not harm you."

Li Xian suddenly raised his head and said, "I don't dare, kid."

Li Zhi said: "Don't be smart. Your cleverness is nothing in front of the prince. The reason why he beat you is to warn you in this way. Don't be ignorant. Wait until the day he stops beating you." That’s when you really need to be on guard.”

Li Xian lowered his head and said softly: "My child knows."

Li Zhi glanced at his son helplessly and said, "How can someone make you feel so happy just by saying a few flattering words?"

Li Xian shook his head and said, "I don't dare, kid."

Li Zhi sighed and said, "Without this way out, the Cui family, the Lu family, the Liu family, they dare to shut your brother out?"

See you tomorrow
