Chapter 130 Finding the Entry Point
Li Chen felt that he had to take the imperial seal to his own hands before Luoyang was completely in chaos. His little butterfly flapped his wings, which had already caused the trajectory of history to deviate from the predetermined track. If Luoyang was completely in chaos, it would be even more difficult to get the imperial seal at that time.
Now that all forces have not noticed Luoyang, Li Chen has now taken the lead. Since this is the case, he should take advantage of himself to take the lead and take the jade seal in his hand as soon as possible. Only in this way can he be considered safe.
The jade seal is in the palace, and there is no need to say much about the garrison of the palace. Since Li Qi instructed his subordinates to kill Fan Chou, Guo Si's relationship with him has dropped to freezing point. These days, even Zhang Ji, who is not usually visible and leaking, has begun to move.
Li Que is not a fool either. He knew that the more he would have to hold the emperor in his hands, so these days, the garrison of the entire palace became more stringent.
The most important thing is that Li Chen only knew that the imperial seal was in the dry well of the palace, and he didn't know that it was in the well. There were so many palaces and courtyards in the palace. It was impossible to search for it without disturbing the guards.
The only entry point for bringing the imperial seal out of the palace without disturbing anyone was Li Le, the guard of the palace. However, Li Le was Li Que's confidant, and the two were still relatives. It was not easy to get Li Le to the point on the spot.
However, it is not simple, it is not impossible. Li Chen thinks that Li Le can be instigated.
"Dong, dong, dong." Li Chen tapped the table with his fingers, muttering the name Li Le in his heart.
In his previous life, Li Le was instigated by all civil and military officials, and he and his soldiers escorted Emperor Xian of Han and all civil and military officials to escape from Luoyang.
Of course, at that time, the Xiliang army had civil strife and Li Que's defeat was doomed. In that case, not to mention that Li Le was Li Que's own brother, even brothers of his family might not be reliable. However, this is enough to prove that Li Le was not 100% loyal to Li Que.
In this case, as long as you are not 100% loyal, you will talk about it. In the end, it is just the word "adding money".
"Luo Yangxing." Li Chen shouted softly to the hall.
"At." Luo Yangxing responded quickly.
"Let your people check this Li Le. Whoever is in his family? Whatever you like when you go to or have any preferences on weekdays," Li Chen ordered.
"No." Luo Yangxing responded.
Luo Yangxing took the order and left, preparing to investigate Li Le. Li Le was just a middle-level officer in the Xiliang army. Logically speaking, there were only a thousand people in this kind of middle-level officer, but Li Le was Li Que's confidant and was responsible for the guards of the palace, so this guy had three thousand soldiers under him.
No wonder those civil and military officials in the previous life chose him. If only more than a thousand people were found, it would be difficult to escort the emperor from Luoyang among the chaos army. But three thousand people are different. Three thousand cavalry is already a considerable force. Even in the face of more than ten thousand infantry interceptors, three thousand cavalry can also rush to the formation and leave.
Fortunately, Li Chen's layout in Luoyang has been nearly a year, and the secret stakes of the Jinyiwei have penetrated into various open and secret places in Luoyang. It is not difficult for the Jinyiwei to investigate a middle-level officer of the Western Liang Army, even if this person is Li Que's confidant, it is not difficult for the Jinyiwei.
Li Chen stayed at Jia Xu's mansion for a night and was a little tired at this time. After Luo Yangxing left, he sniffed on his tiger skin cushion.
Luo Yangxing is the best at exploring Li Chen's thoughts. How dare he slack off on the tasks assigned by Li Chen? Li Chen ordered the Jinyiwei in Luo Yangxing to move secretly. Information about Li Le was sent to Luo Yangxing's hands, and then Luo Yangxing began to look for useful clues.
The Jinyiwei sent a lot of information and was very complicated, which basically included all the footprints of Li Le from childhood to adulthood.
Li Le's parents died when he beat him up and he was fostered by his clan members at Li Que's house. It can be said that Li Le grew up behind Li Que's butt since he was a child. Li Le is considered a general of Li Que's family, and it is precisely because of this that Li Que trusts him so much.
After Li Que became famous, he took great care of Li Le, and now he has given him an important matter like guarding the palace.
Seeing this, Luo Yangxing couldn't help but frown. According to this information, this person has no father or mother and is deeply favored by Li Que. It is probably not that easy to instigate Li Le.
However, in the eyes of old intelligence people like Luo Yangxing, there is no possibility of any flaw in this world. As long as it is a human, there will be flaws. As long as it is a flaw, it can be exploited.
Luo Yangxing looked at the information about Li Le one by one, just like rushing gold in a garbage dump. Among these information, very few can be used. Most of them only record some life stories about Li Le.
Soon, two hours passed. Luo Yangxing, who was mechanizing the information, a trace of cold light flashed in his eyes.
Yes, he seemed to have found some key information.
According to records in the information, Li Le did not get married and lived in the army on weekdays. Usually, it depends on brothels to solve problems. However, since last year, Li Le almost stopped going to brothels and was not in the army during her usual leisure.
He stopped going to the brothel and was not in the army when he was resting. Based on these two pieces of information, Luo Yangxing immediately judged that Li Le must have a secret mistress.
A man who loves to go to a brothel becomes a special one, which is a flaw worth taking advantage of.
Luo Yangxing was extremely sensitive to intelligence. He immediately realized that this was the entry point that Li Chen wanted, and immediately ordered his subordinates to start investigating intelligence.
In the evening, Luo Yangxing walked into Li Chen's study.
"Lord, I found out about Li Le..."
"He bought a house in Xicheng, Luoyang, where he raised a good-looking person in the house. This woman was originally a brothel woman, but she was redeemed by him after she was pregnant with Li Le's child last year."
"Now this woman has just given birth for three months. The mother and mother usually live in this house, and the daily expenses are taken care of by servants."
"Li Le will come here every time she wakes up. It seems that she attaches great importance to the mother and the mother." Luo Yangxing reported the information she found to Li Chen.
Li Leyi's parents died, and his childhood lived a life of living under someone else's roof. The more such a person is, the more he will become a family after having children. Li Chen judged that the mother and mother were the key to controlling Li Le.
"Dong, dong, dong." Li Chen tapped the table with his hands, and then ordered Luo Yangxing: "Let our people move and change the place for the mother and the other two."
Li Chen decided to hold the mother and the other two hostage first to see if they could be used to threaten Li Le.
