Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 196 Personal thoughts are always different

   After Li Yan received the sage, an imperial decree was issued soon, and the deputy general of the Pingnan Army was appointed as the right servant of the Ministry of War.

   He privately referred to Li Xin's document, but the emperor of Chengde did not make it public, and the court was calm, as if nothing had happened.

   The emperor of Chengde did not move, and Li Yan was very sensible and did not continue to sue. After all, the party Li Xin is not in the capital now, and it is useless to make trouble now.

   If we say that before, the attitude of Pingnan Houfu to Li Xin can be said to be indifferent, but after Li Yan wrote the letter, Pingnan Houfu completely turned against Li Xin, and the two sides became eternal enemies.

The reason why    is like this is actually because of two things.

   Li Xin hated Li Chun for tying Zhong Xiaoxiao, so he turned against Pingnan Houfu, while Li Shen hated Li Xin for plotting against the Li family.

Li Shen and Li Xin agreed on the pension list at the beginning, and they both agreed on this matter, but Li Xin actually made a fuss about it in private, and ruthlessly put the Li family together. This made Li Shen, the general of the Zhu Kingdom, quite angry.

   That's why there was a follow-up to Li Yan's return to Beijing.

  Li Shen knew very well in his heart that with Madam Yu and Li Chun, he was unlikely to be Li Xin's opponent, and it was not convenient for him to return to Beijing, so he could only send Li Yan back to the capital as the temporary chief.

The day after Li Yan wrote the letter, the seventh prince Ji Wen was summoned into the palace.

  In the side hall of Changle Palace, the king of Wei knelt on the ground, holding Li Yan's letter in his hand, sweating coldly.

   "Father, this—"

  The emperor of Chengde was expressionless and said, "This is the memorial that Li Yan made to me. During the period of joining Li Xin's military envoy, he colluded with the bandits in southern Xinjiang. Do you know about this?"

The seventh prince smiled wryly and shook his head: "Father, Li Xin is only a captain of Yulinwei. Although there are one or two hundred people under his command, he only has the power to command the troops but not to mobilize them. How can such a sesame-sized military officer be qualified to collude with the bandits in the southern border. Reverse? This must be because the Li family held a grudge against Li Xin because of what happened last time, so they wrote a letter to retaliate. Father Huang Mingjian, don’t be fooled.”

  If you want to connect with foreign countries, the most basic condition is to have a high authority, otherwise it can not be called collusion, but called refuge. The remnants of the southern border have not been completed in this way, and Li Xin has no reason to go to them.

  The emperor of Chengde was expressionless: "Li Xin is naturally not qualified to collude with those rebels, but there are people behind Li Xin."

  Li Xin has done so many things for the Wei Palace in the capital, and it is self-evident who is behind him.

   His Royal Highness King Wei's expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Imperial father, my sons and ministers must not dare!"

"My son serves the monarch and his father. He has always been sincere and never dared to have any crooked thoughts. Besides, the remnants of Nanshu are not as good as those of the Pingnan Army. I wouldn't be looking for this kind of grasshopper after autumn..."

  The seventh prince kowtowed: "Father, what Li Xin did in the southern border, my son doesn't even know the truth, please let the father know!"

The emperor of Chengde nodded lightly and said, "I also think that you should not know about this matter, but Chen Ju went to investigate yesterday, and Li Xin was indeed accompanied by a man from Shu, that is, after he came back from southern Xinjiang, with him."

   "Do you know about this person?"

  The seventh prince shook his head and said, "In the past few months, Erchen has been busy making wine, and he has neglected a lot of chores..."

His Majesty the Emperor stretched out his finger, tapped the table lightly, and frowned: "If what Li Yan said is true, this Li Xin has really met those Nanshu remnants, guess what Li Xin wants to do what?"

The seventh prince bowed his head and said, "Li Xin once told Erchen some stories about him. His mother gave birth to him out of wedlock, and he has lived with his mother and son for more than ten years. Not to mention the hardships of life, he has to be arrested by the villagers. People insulted him, so he mostly... hated the Li family to the bone, not to mention whether Li Xin had contact with the remnants of Nanshu, if he did contact, most of them would like to find some breakthroughs in pacifying the southern army from these people..."

  The emperor of Chengde nodded slowly, agreeing with your words of the seventh prince.

   "It should be like this."

   His Majesty the Emperor, after frowning and thinking for a moment, looked up at Ji Wen and said, "Where is Li Xin now?"

   His Royal Highness King Wei shook his head and said, "I don't know very well, but after calculating the itinerary, it should be on the way back to Beijing at the moment. If it is fast, it will take three to five days. If it is slow, it should be in the capital in ten days and a half months."

   "When he arrives in the capital, let him not go anywhere, and see me as soon as possible."

   His Royal Highness King Wei took a deep breath and said, "My son obeys."

   This conversation between the father and son seems to be commonplace, but there are some mistakes in every sentence, which is enough to make Li Xin die without a burial.

   As long as the Seventh Prince let go, Li Xin may be the end of his head.

After    left the palace, the back of His Royal Highness King Wei was soaked with sweat.

To be honest, if it weren't for Li Xin being too important to him now, he would never speak for Li Xin in front of the emperor. Maybe even when the emperor mentioned that Li Xin was in contact with the southern border, the seventh prince would start to leave Li Xin aside. relationship.

But now, Zhu Rongjiu has begun to bring huge benefits to the Wei Wangfu, and most of the things to pacify the southern border will fall into the hands of Li Xin in the future. Li Xin is almost the biggest help to the Wei Wangfu. In this case, His Royal Highness Wei Wangfu Only gritted his teeth to protect a wave of Li Xin.

After    left the palace, he was still terrified.

   In the situation just now, as long as the emperor of Chengde fainted a little bit, it would be almost impossible for him to get rid of the crime of colluding with the rebels. Fortunately, the emperor of Chengde was wise enough to distinguish right from wrong.

   This feeling of entrusting his life and his future to someone else's thoughts made Ji Wen very uncomfortable.

After returning to the Wei Palace, the Seventh Prince sat paralyzed on the throne, and after drinking several cups of tea, he managed to calm down, waved his hand to a servant and said, "You should set off now and go to the north to find Li Xin. Li Xiaowei's team, and then come back and tell this king when he can return to the capital."

   This servant bowed his head and said, "The villain obeys."

   "Remember to keep the time accurate, this king must know when he can return to the capital."

"Yes."

   One night, His Royal Highness King Wei had insomnia. The words of the emperor of Chengde were like a nightmare, which made him worry about gains and losses. As soon as he closed his eyes, he would think of some bad things.

   He didn't slow down until the sky was bright.

The next morning, the retainer who was sent by him ran back in a hurry, knelt in front of Ji Wen, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Li Xiaowei and the others are already two hundred miles away, and there are two more. We will be able to enter the city in three days.”

   His Royal Highness King Wei opened his eyes and closed his eyes, when he heard the words, his bloodshot eyes opened.

"understood."
