Where is the person?

Li Er looked at the secret letter and asked in a deep voice.

Lao Gao, who lowered his head, said, "I left that day. Maybe I knew that His Highness of the King of Wu was not dead. I was afraid that the matter would be exposed and ran away!"

"escape?

The world is so big, where can he escape? Not to mention the territory of the Tang Dynasty, even the surrounding small countries, who dares to take me into the Tang Dynasty sinner?" Li Er said domineeringly, and after saying that, he shook his sleeves and walked towards the harem.

The head of the harem is Empress Changsun of Lizheng Hall. Below her, Li Er, the four beloved concubines, Li Ke's biological mother, Concubine Yang, is one of them. The other three are Concubine Wei, Concubine Yin, and Concubine Yan De.

Among them, Yin Fei is the most special. Because her father Yin Shishishi was killed by Li Yuan, she has an enemy relationship with the Li family, but in the end she married the enemy's son. It has to be said that luck is a mess.

This is different from Concubine Yang. Although Concubine Yang was the daughter of Emperor Daye, Li Yuan raised an army after Emperor Daye hanged himself. The two were cousins, not enemies of life and death. Concubine Yang and Li Er were also cousins. Marrying him was considered a kinship. There was no gap.

It has to be said that His Majesty Li Er is indeed brave, and this Yin Concubine performed well and gave birth to a son for Li Er, who was ranked fifth, Li You, who was named King of Qi, which shows Li Er's favor.

But it was the past that I loved it anyway. It was not from now on, because Baiqisi found out that it was Li Ke who was poisoned by Li You.

So Li Er went straight to Yinfei's palace and slapped the secret letter in his hand in front of the other party.

Concubine Yin was shocked and thought to herself, why did Your Majesty come in anger? What's so abnormal?

"Good things you did!"

"This... Your Majesty, I don't know why I got angry?" Yin Fei said innocently.

Li Er pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh? You don't know? Look at this, maybe it will remind you of something."

Concubine Yin quickly picked up the secret letter and read it. When he saw the words "Li You, the envoy behind the scenes of the King of Wu Li Ke, his mind buzzed and it was all blank.

"Your Majesty, this is impossible, You'er would never do this." Yin Fei was trembling in her speech, and she didn't have much confidence in her tone. She knew the most about her son's temperament.

Li Er laughed furiously and said, "Oh? Then tell me, a while ago, he returned to Chang'an from Qizhou to get sick, so why did he suddenly leave now? He was so hurried that he didn't even have time to say hello to me, the father. What is he in a hurry?

Or, what is he hiding?"

"This... I, I, maybe, was You'er's negligence for a moment!" Yin Fei argued forcefully.

"Hahahaha, what a momentary negligence!

Let me tell you what?

At that time, the Goguryeo Navy attacked Yingzhou and landed in battle, and even the famous general Li Ji was besieged.

When Li You received this news, he was afraid that what if the 100,000 navy troops arrived in Qizhou again? So he hurriedly said he had returned to Chang'an with illness, but in fact he was taking refuge.

Humph, as a royal man, he is so greedy and afraid of death. If it weren't for the trouble with him, the King of Qi, how could my Lingnan Navy in the Tang Dynasty be ten days late to arrive at the Northeast sea to support it?

I thought of these things when Li You were young and was ready to expose them. Who would have thought that a difference in thought would almost cause a disaster, and he did another thing that made me stand out. Do you dare to say you don’t know?”

Li Er's call made Yin Fei speechless. She really didn't know about this, but she was already in vain and could no longer find any words to defend her son.

Seeing Yin Fei's appearance, Li Er didn't want to say anything more, turned around and ordered Lao Gao: "Send someone to chase him, take Li You and others and catch them all.

In addition, the Yin family in Chang'an, the house cannot be sent away!"

"No, Your Majesty, you can't do this. You'er is still a child, young and ignorant? She was confused for a moment? Please give me kindness..." Concubine Yin fell to the ground and hugged Li Er's legs and howled.

"Young and ignorant?

Younger, who is younger than him, is now leading the people in Shu to open mountains and build roads. Ask Li You, what did he do in Qizhou? The people of Qizhou have long complained.

Even if he was young and ignorant, was his uncle Yin Hongzhi also young and ignorant? The poison was brought by Yin Hongzhi. Now the uncle and nephew fled to the fiefdom of Qizhou together. What do you want to do?

You'd better pray that the people I sent can catch up, otherwise, if the two of them raise the flag to rebel in Qizhou, it wouldn't be that simple."

After saying that, Li Er left, leaving Yin Fei alone in the bedroom crying. She really didn't know this!

After leaving Yin Fei, Li Er did not go to handle government affairs, but instead went to Lizheng Hall. Tomorrow, it was a grand ceremony to discuss Li Ke's dynasty meeting, and it was time to talk to the queen.

"The poisoned person found out that it was Lao Wu who did it."

Obediently, he knew that Li Er was in a bad mood. Empress Changsun was shocked and said, "Li You? Why..."

She wanted to say how it was possible, but she didn't continue to say it. She felt relieved after thinking about it. She was born in the royal family and whether many things could be done has nothing to do with her age.

"Does Yin Fei know?" the queen asked.

"I think she knows it, but it doesn't matter now." Li Er said indifferently.

"So what does Your Majesty want to deal with this?"

Li Er asked meaningfully: "Queen, what do you think?"

"I..." The queen was about to answer when she suddenly noticed that the other party was called wrong. She called herself the queen a very rare name, but she used to be called nicknames.

But she is a smart woman. Even if she knows that the emperor is suspicious and dissatisfied with him, she will not reveal her dissatisfaction with him. A flash of inspiration in her mind: "No, remember Shaoqing said that the poison in Ke'er was the same as the poison that the thief in Tubo wanted to murder Chengqian last time. So, it was Li You who did it last time?"

Li Er looked at his first wife, and knew the overall situation and couldn't help but see a clip from the Three Kingdoms in his mind. When talking about heroes with green plums, Uncle Liu pretended to be afraid of thunder to cover up the shock of falling chopsticks. The scene of his first wife is really similar.

Still speaking, Li Er shook his head and said, "What's the truth? I'll tell you what's the matter if I take Li You.

Today I want to talk to the queen about Li Ke’s affairs.”

The queen showed a pity and said, "I have always felt that Ke'er's child should be innocent. He would not be so unwise, but without any evidence, it is difficult to plead with His Majesty. Yesterday, Cheng Qian also looked for me and said he was willing to guarantee his third brother, but he was afraid that you would not dare to tell you."

Li Er almost laughed at his wife's acting skills. After thinking about it, he decided not to hurt the relationship between the couple.

"I have also sent someone to find out the matter about Jiangnan.

Everything was done by Lao Wu. Ke'er didn't know about the ten thousand dead soldiers and private soldiers, so you don't have to worry. The court meeting tomorrow will clear his innocence."

This, this...

The queen exclaimed, then said with pain: "I really didn't expect that the fifth brother Li You would make such a plan...

Alas, Your Majesty, as the lord of the harem, I am also considered You'er's mother. I have been blamed for his traitor. You'er made such a big mistake, and I feel uneasy. Please punish him."

Seeing the queen leaning over to apologize, Li Er said in surprise: "Guanyin Bi, what are you doing?

Alas, what does Li You have to do with you? It is also the responsibility of Yin Fei. There are so many children in the harem, where can you take care of you? Get up quickly.”

"Your Majesty should give a decree and punish me, otherwise I will be uneasy!" The queen begged again.

At this point, both husband and wife have almost all their own judgments. The queen is not so stupid that she doesn't know that her husband has found a scapegoat for her. Although she can just do it, after all, this is not authentic and apologizing is necessary.

He couldn't refuse, so Li Er had to reluctantly agree, "Well, then he'll be fined for half a year.

I'm busy with my harem all day long and I have to worry about so many children's affairs, which is difficult for you.

Your health is not good at all. You can leave these things to the teacher and your teacher to discipline them in the future without doing everything yourself. I don’t want my virtuous help to get tired of my body.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." The queen answered gratefully, but she was already panicked.

This is called "The mute eats coptis and has no way to say it. What does Your Majesty mean? It is already very obvious, that is a warning. Forget it this time, this kind of thing can't happen again in the future.

Just as the couple were chatting, the eldest prince Li Chengqian asked for a meeting.

Seeing his son coming here, Li Er frowned and said, "If you still talk about Li Ke's affairs, just go back. There will be public discussions in the court tomorrow."

Children's minister...

Just as Li Chengqian was about to speak, the queen quickly interrupted and reminded: "Don't worry, Chengqian, your father has found out that Li Ke was framed, so he won't have any trouble tomorrow."

"Really? That's great. I wonder who the mastermind behind the scenes is? Can you let my third brother come out now?" Li Chengqian said excitedly.

Li Er said with a stern face: "What's the matter? This is a state matter. Everything will be revealed after tomorrow's meeting. Let him stay in prison for one more day and reflect on himself. He doesn't know that ten thousand private soldiers and dead soldiers have emerged under his rule. This vigilance should make him learn a lesson.

OK, you step back, don't reveal this matter, so as not to cause riots."

Li Chengqian looked embarrassed, as if he was unwilling to leave.

It was the queen who understood her son's thoughts and asked curiously: "But there is anything else?"

Li Chengqian blushed and said, "Just now, Xiang'er's mother left the palace and returned to her parents' home."

"What's the matter? He is the princess, and it's very common to go back to his parents' home to visit a relative. Do you want to talk about such trivial matters?" Li Er said unhappy.

At this time, the queen pushed her husband and turned to ask, "Why, are you angry? Why?"

My... Li Er was choked and it was difficult for a clean official to make a decision on family affairs, so he was most annoyed by this.

Lee Seung-chung said honestly: "My son told her that in the Northeast battlefield, she wanted to ask Silla for help to attack Pyongyang City, so she agreed to the marriage proposal of Queen Silla to bring Silla Queen Jin Deman as a wife. Maybe this incident made her unhappy.

But the son minister was really selfless and was completely considering the war in the Tang Dynasty..."

Looking at his son, Li Er felt a little disappointed, and thought to himself, why can't even handle a woman? Why didn't you get the true teachings of my skills at all?

What is selfless? You can't be tough and say like a man, I just like a man, what's wrong with marrying him?

Of course, in front of the queen, Li Er could not tell his son clearly what he said in his heart, but this did not prevent him from being dissatisfied with Li Chengqian's incompetence.

So after thinking about it, Li Er said, "The Queen of Silla deserves Cheng Qian's identity. It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines!"

The queen quickly advised: "Your Majesty, calm down. Our eldest daughter-in-law is not a jealous person. I will talk to her.

I think this is closely related to the indoor conflict between the couple. I think our eldest son has been to the southwest for several years, leaving his daughter-in-law to stay in the empty room alone. Now he has finally come back for a few days, and then he goes to the battlefield.

The mother and mother were worried at home, but this kid was flirting with her on the battlefield. What kind of morality is it? I think a woman would feel unfair.

But just take the person back and Cheng Qian comforts him. No matter how good the Queen of Silla is, she is still a woman from a countryside and cannot be promoted."

Li Er nodded and scolded his son: "Do you understand? It's useless. Let your mother talk to you more. If a man can't solve the problem in the backyard, how can you do the things outside?"
