The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

"Ask the hooligans to do the work? Besides hanging around in Chang'an and being good at getting information, what else can they do?" Dong Jiu sneered.

"That's different. Langjun said that different people have different uses." Shitou laughed and said, "The hooligans are easier to control. If you ask smart people to do the work, smart people will ask you what you want to do. If the matter is big, they dare not do it.

But the hooligans are different. They won't ask. As long as you pay them, they won't investigate the reasons or notice anything. They are easy to control and obedient."

To put it bluntly, this kind of people are stupid and unaware, and can only see the little profits under their noses.

Dong Jiu nodded silently after hearing this.

It seems to be true.

"After receiving this batch of goods, the husband asked us to stay in the house for the next few days and not go out unless necessary." Shitou said, "I just told the people from the farm that the goods will not be sent to Chang'an City for the time being. When the husband says it's okay, we can go back and forth between the two sides."

Although I don't know what will happen, it's always right to listen to my husband.

Shitou and Dong Jiu took the people from the farm and went directly to the East Market to deliver the goods.

They were also acquainted with the shopkeeper of Ke Yue Tower. After the goods were delivered, they paid and delivered the goods.

There were no problems on the way this time.

In the palace, Li Jiancheng was meeting Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty, the King of Qi will lead his troops to the battle the day after tomorrow. He asked Yuchi Jingde and Qin Shubao from the Qin Palace to accompany him. Please give your order."

Li Yuan looked at the document in his hand, then looked at Li Jiancheng, with a suspicious look on his face.

"The King of Qi seems to be very familiar with the military commanders of the Prince of Qin's Palace. If there is an accident and the King of Qin is used, then the King of Qin will be left with no one under his command, right?"

Li Yuan always felt that there was something wrong here, and the prince and the King of Qi were close on a daily basis. In recent days, he always felt a bad premonition in his heart.

"The military commanders of the Prince of Qin's Palace are very familiar with the 18 tribes of the grassland. This time, the King of Qi mobilized the people of the Prince of Qin's Palace for the affairs of the 18 tribes of the grassland. I think it is appropriate." Li Jiancheng responded without changing his expression.

Li Yuan stared at Li Jiancheng for a long time, then nodded and wrote a red stamp on the document.

Li Yuan stood up, walked down the steps, and came in front of Li Jiancheng.

"In recent days, there has been no trouble between you brothers, right?"

Li Yuan's eyes were sharp, like a hawk.

Although he was old and soft-hearted and wavering about his son's affairs, it did not mean that he was confused.

Now everything was abnormal.

Li Jiancheng's heart was beating fast. Facing Li Yuan's direct gaze, he shook his head slightly.

Then, he lowered his eyes and said, "Tomorrow I will give a farewell party to the King of Qi. I want to invite the King of Qin as well."

When Li Jiancheng said this, Li Yuan couldn't help but think of the last time they hosted the King of Qin and the King of Qin was poisoned.

Li Yuan didn't want the King of Qin to attend this banquet.

But Li Jiancheng came up with a legitimate and appropriate reason.

After all, it was a large army going out, and the battlefield was dangerous.

"The matter of the eighteen tribes in the grassland is not serious this time. Let's handle it in the name of the prince." Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

"Yes, then I will issue an order and start to handle this matter." Li Jiancheng said.

Everyone left, and Li Yuan stood alone in the hall, his heart full of complexities.

Just to reinforce Wucheng, the King of Qi had to mobilize people from the Qin Palace.

In addition, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Cheng Zhijie from the Qin Palace were all transferred out of the Qin Palace.

Now, there is no one left in the Qin Wang Mansion.

Only Changsun Wuji is left...

Li Yuan sighed secretly.

After Li Jiancheng left the palace, he went to the Qi Wang Mansion.

"Are you all ready? Tomorrow morning, I will mobilize the Changlin Army to Xuanwu Gate. Who do you plan to use?" Li Jiancheng asked.

"Myself."

Li Jiancheng was stunned when he drank.

He knew that the Qi Wang was cruel, but he didn't expect that he would kill his own brother by himself.

"I want to kill the Qin Wang." Li Yuanji said: "And that Li Fu, tomorrow's banquet, I will also invite him to this excuse."

Li Yuanji's contempt for Li Fu has turned into hatred.

He also has spies in the palace. That day, Li Fu went to the palace to complain to Li Yuan, and Li Yuanji's people came back and told Li Yuanji everything.

That bastard, dare to complain to His Majesty?

Still want His Majesty to make the decision for him?

He is just a country bumpkin who grew up outside.

Did he have no father since childhood and think His Majesty is his real father? He is really good at climbing the social ladder.

Li Yuanji was warned by Li Yuan for this matter.

He also brought up Du Ruhui's matter and reprimanded him.

Li Yuanji held a grudge even more.

Li Jiancheng looked at his younger brother with a complicated expression.

"I really didn't know that you were so jealous of your second brother.

As the crown prince, I value the position of the crown prince and don't allow anyone to get involved. I just want to get rid of the King of Qin. That's all.

You... after all, what are you doing for? Just because the King of Qin treats you badly?"

Li Jiancheng knew that when attacking Luoyang a few years ago, Li Yuanji also went with the army, but after the whole battle, Li Yuanji seemed to have gone through the motions and didn't get any credit.

After Luoyang was taken, Li Yuanji took a fancy to some rare things, but the King of Qin didn't give him any money on the grounds that they were to be registered and sent back to Chang'an.

He even reprimanded him.

Li Yuanji thought for a while after hearing Li Jiancheng's question, and then pretended to be heartbroken.

"Brother, don't you know?"

"Know what?" Li Jiancheng was curious.

"You and my second brother never knew." Li Yuanji sighed: "Since I was born, my parents never loved me because I was ugly. If it weren't for my wet nurse feeding me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lived to this day."

Li Jiancheng frowned.

What kind of reason is this.

"Didn't the emperor often let you lead the troops? Didn't the emperor not punish you before, whether it was Du Ruhui's matter or your revenge on Li Fu?" Li Jiancheng said.

Isn't this a father's love for his son?

He didn't understand why Li Yuanji had such an idea.

"Since I was young, my mother has loved my second brother, and my father also dotes on him. We are both princes. He has the Tiance Mansion, but what do I have? My second brother treats me badly, and my father treats me badly too!" Li Yuanji said angrily, "Is it because I am ugly?!"

"After this matter is accomplished, my heart knot will be untied, and I will not care about the past."

"Then, tomorrow is up to you." Li Jiancheng raised his glass.

"Don't worry." Li Yuanji responded.
