Chapter 672 Conspiracy
Chapter 672 Conspiracy
"Concubine Yang was banned, Zheng Rentai was imprisoned, and Li Ke was completely defeated!!!"
Yue Wangfu.
The secret room under the study.
Li Chengqian was dressed in a prince's robe and drank the teacup in one gulp.
In the past, he attached great importance to manners in the palace, and he had a fixed process for drinking tea and wine.
But ever since Li Jing broke his leg and kept a low profile, while imitating Li Jing's behavior from time to time, he suddenly found that if he wanted to surpass Li Jing, he could not be bound by his previous thinking.
Therefore, in the past few months, he still looks like a handsome young man in front of people, but in private, he is even more unbearable than a countryman.
And during this time of self-indulgence, he seemed to suddenly understand the true meaning of happiness.
The throne, which was very dazzling in his eyes in the past, now feels a little restrained to him.
If it weren't for the obsession in his heart that was hard to cancel, he might have gone on a tour of mountains and rivers with Xin Xin.
After all, in his heart now, love between a man and a man is the root of happiness.
Everything that I wished for in the past, now seems to be nothing more than passing clouds.
"King Wu is indeed defeated, but it's not like there's no chance at all."
The person at the same table as Li Chengqian is Li Yifu.
Hearing Li Chengqian's exclamation just now, Li Yifu said with quite a sigh: "The king of Wu was successful in concubine Yang, but he was also defeated by concubine Yang.
But now that he is free from the status restriction of Concubine Yang, King Wu may have a chance to survive from a desperate situation. "
"Hehe~
Is Mr. Li still asleep?
Survival? !
Why didn't the general realize that Li Ke had the chance to break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly? "
Beside Li Yifu, a man in black said with a sneer.
Concubine Yang was imprisoned by Empress Changsun, and her in-law Zheng Rentai was also arrested and imprisoned by His Majesty Li Er. He really couldn't see that Li Ke had half a chance of winning.
Even in his opinion, it was a fluke for Li Ke to keep his life, not to mention continuing to compete with Li Jing and others for the throne.
After all, whether it is Li Jingyi or Li Chengqian, Li Ke has no vitality at all.
It's just because there has always been no retreat in the battle for the heir apparent, once it fails, it will inevitably fall into the abyss of eternal doom.
Otherwise, why would countless princes throughout the ages die so prematurely.
Could it be that there are problems with the geomantic omen of the royal family in all dynasties, or are dozens of imperial physicians all incompetent?
The only reason for this is nothing more than a victim of the imperial power struggle.
"The general really underestimated Concubine Yang."
As the man in black's voice fell, Li Chengqian's expression was slightly dissatisfied, as if he was questioning Li Yifu's ability.
Seeing this, Li Yifu didn't dare to pretend to show off anymore.
I had to try my best to suppress my dissatisfaction, and said with a sullen face: "Concubine Yang can be a backer for King Wu to find Zheng Rentai that day, and today she can find another helper for King Wu.
Now that she has lost the shackles of Concubine Yang, there must be someone who is willing to take risks for this ultimate right.
If there is a general in the army at this moment who is willing to accept the marriage of King Wu, does your lord think that King Wu will be able to come here in a very happy way? ! "
"Hahaha~"
The man in black laughed loudly when he heard the words, and said with a look of extreme disdain: "Nowadays everyone knows that Li Ke's power is gone, so how can anyone be willing to marry Li Ke.
What's more, even if there are ignorant people who are opportunistic, they are definitely not the generals in charge of military guards like this old man!
If not, how could the old man be in the same room as the king at this time? ! "
"Hahaha~
What Lu Guogong said is very true, Yifu is indeed a bit unfounded. "
When the man in black said a word, Li Chengqian immediately echoed proudly.
Just his words already revealed the identity of the man in black...
In the early years of Zhenguan, Li Shimin rewarded the heroes of Xuanwumen.
However, a native of Sanshui County, Binzhou, Hou Junji of the Shangguhou family, was granted the title of Lu Guogong in Jin for his repeated military exploits, and moved to the right guard general.
It seems that such a general in charge of a guard is already enough to change the situation above the court.
So up to this moment, Li Chengqian still couldn't believe that Hou Junji would come to pay a visit in person, and he never expected that Hou Junji would have the intention of taking refuge in allegiance.
Fortunately, he never received guests with satisfaction, otherwise Hou Junji might really switch to Li Ke in a fit of anger.
It's just that he vaguely didn't understand why Hou Junji, who was an official of the Eastern Palace, would take refuge in him?
Could it be that in Hou Junji's mind, he really has an advantage over Li Jing?
"Lu Guogong, if you and I get married, Li Jing will definitely be alert.
At that time, I'm afraid it will be very inconvenient for you to act in the East Palace. "
Li Chengqian thought for a while, then reminded with a frown.
Now he is thinking of Xin Xin wholeheartedly, and he really does not want to spread such news to make Xin Xin sad.
Thinking about it, if it wasn't for Hou Junji who was indispensable to him, he would have rejected Hou Junji's marriage proposal just now.
It's just that in Hou Junji's eyes, his remarks already had the intention of rejecting them.
If he hadn't been involuntary now, he might have turned against Li Chengqian on the spot.
"Duke Lu, don't misunderstand, Xiao Wang didn't mean to refuse.
Xiao Wang just felt that for the sake of the overall situation, Lord Lu Guo should temporarily hide his relationship with Xiao Wang and lurk in the East Palace to wait for the opportunity to inquire about the news. "
Seeing the dissatisfaction and anger in Hou Junji's eyes, Li Chengqian hurriedly said again.
"Humph!!!"
Hou Junji snorted angrily when he heard the words, and asked extremely dissatisfied: "Since Your Majesty has orders, the general will naturally follow His Majesty's wishes.
But at the end of the day, I heard that there is a confidante in the palace of the great king, and I think it is because of her that the king is not willing to disclose this matter. "
"How can this be!!!
Duke Lu can rest assured that this is absolutely impossible!
If Duke Lu has doubts, I will drive her out of the palace tomorrow! "
Li Chengqian shook his head resolutely, his eyes were full of sincerity.
Now that a major event is imminent, he is unwilling to lose his strong support at this moment.
What's more, no one knows the appearance and identity of Xin Xin. If Hou Junji really doesn't believe it, he only needs to send a court lady home.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this, how can the last general doubt your Majesty?"
Hou Junji casually said something perfunctory, but still stared at Li Chengqian carefully for a moment.
Then he nodded silently, got up and cupped his hands and said: "However, in a few days it will be the day of the expedition, and His Majesty will definitely go outside the city to boost the morale of the soldiers.
If the king really intends to use the king of Wu to plan something, he needs to make arrangements earlier.
It's just that the general is inconvenient now, and it's really impossible to help the king with this matter.
The final general can only guarantee that the two will not help each other at that time, and the rest will depend on the king's means. "
After finishing speaking, Hou Junji turned around and strode away regardless of Li Yifu's dissuasion.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian's face sank like water, he sat on the chair with gritted teeth and did not get up for a long time.
After Shicai's incident, he just realized that he was too far from an old fox like Hou Junji.
Just showing a slight clue, Hou Junji pulled away decisively and left.
And his original plan to use Hou Junji to make a comeback naturally couldn't continue to be implemented.
Even if he couldn't make up the relationship in a short period of time, Hou Junji, who had just joined him, might turn around and sell him to Li Jing.
At that time, let alone take advantage of Li Shimin's opportunity to boost morale, it is absolutely impossible for him to keep his current position.
It's just because his plan this time is a bit too sensational.
Once he gets his wish, the whole world will be shocked.
What's more, dynastic change is not impossible.
