Chapter 506 Proposing a Solution
Chapter 506 Proposing a Solution
"What do you think about this assassination?"

Li Er didn't say much nonsense, seeing that everyone was seated, he immediately went straight to the topic and asked the other ministers next.

The ministers naturally knew that Li Er had been thinking about this matter all the time, and the summoning this time must be related to this matter.

So when the ministers were on the road, they already had a draft in their hearts.

Several ministers have even thought up a series of plans.

But no one dared to be the early bird and speak first.

The reason is nothing more than that the scale of the assassination is different from the past, and the level is not the same level as those assassins, the same grade.

Therefore, they don't know whether the outdated strategies they think are feasible or not.

Seeing that the ministers were all looking at each other, no one seemed to want to speak first, Li Er glanced at the ministers, and randomly picked someone: "Du Ruhui! Come on, you speak first!"

Du Ruhui was named by Li Er, so he couldn't continue pretending to be deaf and dumb, so he cleared his throat and said, "I think that the guard battalion should strengthen its defense and send more people. Properly control the gates of Chang'an City." Going in and out, you have to question the merchants a few more times."

As soon as Du Ruhui finished speaking, a minister immediately echoed, "I think Master Du is right!"

"Master Du is right, and the veteran thinks so too."

"In Yichen's opinion, not only does Chang'an City have to be strictly defended, but the imperial guards in the imperial city should also be more vigilant."

"In my humble opinion, I think that after this incident, people should be mobilized and searched from house to house. Be sure to wipe out all those chaotic officials and thieves!"

"Yeah, this should be searched family by family. I don't believe that those thieves can disappear out of thin air without revealing anything!"

"I believe that taking advantage of this incident, we can sort out the foreign personnel in Chang'an City, register all the foreign personnel in the register, and then screen them one by one!"

After Du Ruhui opened his mouth, the ministers exchanged their views one by one.

However, Cheng Yaojin thought for a while, but said: "But these assassins are all dressed up as ordinary people, and there is no way to tell whether this person is a thief or an ordinary citizen!"

Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin had the same idea: "I think this is reasonable. These thieves are all disguised as ordinary people, and they can't tell them apart from the crowd. Since they can enter the city, their customs clearance documents will not There will be problems."

"If there is no problem with the customs clearance document, then no matter how detailed our investigation is, we have registered all the outsiders, and we have no way of knowing who is guilty and who is not." Cheng Yaojin shook his head again and said.

Many ministers also agreed with Cheng Yaojin and Changsun Wuji's views.

In this huge city of Chang'an, not to mention collecting household registration information is a big project, the main thing is that even if the household registration information is collected, as long as the assassins hide it well, everything they do will be in vain, and there will be no point at all. usefulness.

Not to mention, if such a large-scale investigation is carried out, the assassins may not find out, and instead add a bunch of inexplicable tasks to them.

"I think that Master Cheng and Master Changsun Wuji are right. Chang'an City is mixed with fish and dragons. Doing so is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack, and it is meaningless to find the assassin."

"Yes, Your Majesty, these assassins are inherently cunning. Since they can hide among the people, it will not be easy to find out their flaws. I think it is inappropriate to thoroughly investigate the Chang'an household registration."

The ministers quickly argued over whether the household registration should not be checked thoroughly.

Li Er watched from the side, feeling a headache too.

The assassins were hiding among the civilians, which added a lot of workload to the search for the assassins.

Not to mention, the behind-the-scenes people who can raise this kind of manpower will not be so low-handed that they can easily find out the problem.

The reason for not checking is because after checking, it is very likely that personal wealth will be lost.

However, if you don't check...

Li Er thought for a while.

If he didn't investigate, and let these rebels make trouble in Chang'an City, he would be angry and bloody.

If it weren't for the fact that sending a large army to thoroughly investigate the matter would easily cause panic among the people and make the man behind the scenes complacent in the dark, Li Er would have wanted to send troops to search the matter long ago.

However, the idea ultimately fell through.

Li Er is very upset now.

On the one hand, it was because the traitor who ordered the assassin to assassinate him had never been found, and if he didn't get rid of that person, he would not be able to live in peace.

But on the other hand, Li Er felt that if he sent a large army to thoroughly investigate the matter, he would be able to find some evidence.However, it is not a wise move to send troops to conduct a thorough investigation, and other forces may even think that he is making a fuss out of a molehill.

Li Er is now caught in a dilemma. Although the ministers' ideas have their own reasons, they are somewhat inapplicable to the current situation.

Is there any other way to find the traces of these assassins...

Li Er was lost in thought, and the ministers saw that Li Er had been silent, and their voices became smaller and smaller.

Until the end, the entire East Palace was completely quiet, and no one dared to say anything.

"How about... let's go and find Beiliang King Bai Jingyi?"

Seeing that no one was talking, Cheng Yaojin poked his head out and spoke.

None of them spoke, like they were dumb. Could it be that they really planned to be poles here?

"What do you want him for?" A minister suddenly asked.

"Although Bai Jingyi, King of Beiliang, is young, he is resourceful and has some tricks. Your Majesty, I think that I can find Bai Jingyi to find out the truth. He will definitely have a way to deal with these assassins. Maybe he can find out the behind-the-scenes Who is the instigator?"

Li Er looked at Cheng Yaojin, but didn't speak for a long time.

Bai Jingyi?
He is brave and resourceful, but also very capable.

But can Bai Jingyi really handle this matter properly?

Li Er thought for a while, he wanted to find some excuses to deny Cheng Yaojin's idea.

But after thinking about it for a long time, he realized that everything Bai Jingyi had done had ended perfectly, so he couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.

Maybe... Bai Jingyi can really solve this problem for him, clean up all the assassins in Chang'an City, restore Chang'an's peace, and at the same time find out who instigated these assassins.

Since there is such a possibility, it is not impossible for Bai Jingyi to participate in this meeting.

The other ministers were thinking differently from Li Er.

Most of what they were thinking in their hearts was disbelief that Bai Jingyi could actually handle things that they couldn't understand.

Although Bai Jingyi is very good, even those guys who have been in the court for decades have not been able to think of a way to deal with it. Bai Jingyi, a junior, really has the ability to solve this problem?
