Li Jiancheng ignored Wei Zheng, changed his clothes, left the East Palace, and took a carriage to the imperial city.As the Prince of the East Palace, Li Jiancheng didn't need to wait outside the imperial city. He went straight in. After arriving outside the Ganlu Hall, the little eunuch entered the Ganlu Hall and reported to Li Yuan that Li Jiancheng had asked to see him.

Li Yuan is now in a fit of anger.

As soon as Li Jiancheng asked to see him, he flicked his sleeves and said, "No see!"

The little eunuch got the order and went to deliver the order.

When Li Jiancheng heard Li Yuan's words conveyed by the eunuch, the depression in his heart was even more difficult to calm down.He snorted, stared at the little eunuch, and ordered: "Go and tell Father, if Father doesn't see me today, I won't leave."

This is Li Jiancheng's answer.

He had to meet Li Yuan to clarify the matter.

The eunuchs in the palace couldn't afford to offend Li Jiancheng.If it was an ordinary courtier and official, Li Yuan said no, the little eunuch would just chase him away, but after hearing Li Jiancheng's words, the little eunuch could only enter again and report Li Jiancheng's answer to Li Yuan.

Seeing Li Jiancheng being so arrogant, Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let him in."

"Yes!"

The eunuch ordered to go to Tongchuan again.

Li Jiancheng was able to enter the Ganlu Palace. After seeing Li Yuan, he bowed to Li Yuan, and then said: "Father, you reprimanded my minister earlier, telling me to have a big heart and a big picture. I didn't understand it, but I also accepted it." But today, the emperor gave another order, ordering the son to shut the door and contemplate for half a month. In the heart of the son, I really don't understand why the father treats the son so harshly."

Li Yuan sneered and said, "Jiangcheng, you have changed."

Li Jiancheng said: "My minister has not changed."

Li Yuandao: "Why did I reprimand you, don't you know clearly in your heart?"

Li Jiancheng said: "I don't know!"

Seeing that Li Jiancheng was still pretending to be stupid, Li Yuan became even more angry.His thin hands were propped on the desk in front of him, and he even leaned forward slightly, staring at Li Jiancheng, and said: "As the prince of the Eastern Palace, you want to force Du Qi to work for you, but there is such a thing ?”

When Li Jiancheng heard Li Yuan's words, he was preconceived, thinking that Du Qi had already reported to Li Yuan that Li Jiancheng wanted to kill Du Qi, thinking that this was a false accusation made by Du Qi without evidence.

Therefore, Li Jiancheng lost his scruples, and said in a deep voice: "Father, what is Du Qi? He is just a boy, and my son is your own son."

"As the crown prince of the East Palace, I have invited Du Qi over and over again to let him work for me."

"But Du Qi, don't eat fine wine for toasting."

"My son is indeed true. Someone pointed a knife at Du Qi and threatened him that if he was unwilling to serve him, he would kill him. But in the end, my son did not take action and did not kill him .”

Li Jiancheng thought that Du Qi had already said these things, so he said it without any scruples.

Then, Li Jiancheng continued: "Although I have threatened Du Qi, Father, now, after listening to Du Qi's slander, you think what I have done to Du Qi. But if there is anything wrong with Du Qi, he is still alive and kicking. "

Li Yuan frowned.

The anger in his chest suddenly rose again.When Du Qi met him earlier, he only talked about Li Jiancheng's failure to recruit him and that he might vent his anger. He didn't mention that Li Jiancheng had people surround Du Qi and wanted to kill Du Qi.

Hearing the news, Li Yuan felt even more sorry for Du Qi.A twelve or thirteen-year-old child unexpectedly faced such a threat and undertook tremendous pressure.

Evil barrier!

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and raised his anger. The more he looked at Li Jiancheng, the more furious his inner anger became.

Li Jiancheng disappointed him too much.

However, Li Yuan didn't expose it immediately, and said again: "I don't care about the fact that you sent people to surround and kill Du Qi in the East Palace. Then today, Xu Ming assassinated Du Qi, didn't you instigate it?"

He started asking again.

Because Li Yuan believed that Du Qi never spoke the truth and always cared about his father-son relationship with Li Jiancheng, so Du Qi would rather suffer by himself than make provocative actions.

This is Li Yuan's view of Du Qi.

Just like this, Li Yuan praised Du Qi even more, and also thought that Du Qi was more sensible and kind.

Li Jiancheng had already prepared for Li Yuan's question, and he was not worried about Li Yuan's question.With his head held high, he said loudly: "Father said that Xu Ming's assassination of Du Qi was instigated by my servant."

"But what about the evidence?"

"Is there any evidence to show that it was the minister who ordered the assassin to assassinate Du Qi. There is no evidence, the emperor ordered the minister to contemplate behind closed doors for half a month. Father, have you ever considered that the minister is the big brother?" Tang's prince also needs majesty."

Li Jiancheng said: "Father's actions will make the prince's majesty as a son and minister, and will be completely lost."

Li Yuandao: "When you arranged for someone to assassinate Du Qi, did you ever consider that you would discredit yourself? Even, did you ever consider that it was a twelve or thirteen-year-old

child.You don't even have a trace of compassion. "

Li Jiancheng's heart was full of resentment, but he still explained: "Father said that, but he didn't pay attention to evidence at all. There is no evidence and no evidence. How can father say that it was my minister who ordered Xu Ming to assassinate Du Qi."

Li Yuan's muddy eyes were extremely sharp, as if they wanted to directly penetrate Li Jiancheng's heart.

At this moment, his voice was even hoarse and deep.

Li Yuan stared at Li Jiancheng coldly, and slowly said: "Li Jiancheng, the news you have received is all news that has been processed, and it was deliberately let outsiders know. Do you know that Xu Ming did not die when he was taken down. "

"The magistrate of Chang'an captured Xu Ming, and he is still alive."

"After being interrogated by the magistrate of Chang'an, Xu Ming identified it as Li Jiancheng, the prince of the East Palace, who arranged for him to assassinate Du Qi. Because I, your old father, took into account the majesty of your prince, I ordered Xu Ming to be executed and ordered Chang'an County to kill Du Qi. Ling announced to the outside world that when Xu Ming was captured, Xu Ming had already been killed."

"In this way, it is announced that no one knows who is going to assassinate Du Qi."

Li Yuan said: "Now, after you get this news, what else do you have to say?"

In Li Yuan's eyes, there was a hint of expectation.

He was looking forward to it. Li Jiancheng said that this assassination was really not done by him.because

Because Xu Ming was already dead, no one knew who ordered Xu Ming to assassinate Du Qi.

There is no evidence for this.

Li Yuan was just guessing, guessing that Li Jiancheng arranged for Xu Ming to assassinate Du Qi.So Li Yuan changed his rhetoric to bluff Li Jiancheng in front of Li Jiancheng.

He wanted to hear what Li Jiancheng had to say.

Li Jiancheng originally heard Wei Zheng's report and believed that Xu Ming was dead.Because Li Jiancheng was determined, he dared to question him.But suddenly, upon hearing Li Yuan's words, he froze in place.There was already a look of panic on that face, to the point that Li Jiancheng wanted to drill a hole and get in.

Li Jiancheng regretted it.

What is he here for?

He never expected that Xu Ming's death was the result of Li Yuan's interference, which was too unexpected.

Li Yuan is so sophisticated.
