"On the 15th of the second month of this year, when I was still in Helan, I reported to my father that Li Linchang, the Anbei Protector-General, had framed the Uighurs and provoked them, causing the two countries to go to war, their land to be invaded, and the people to suffer! Didn't father receive it?" Li Yao asked loudly.
" What?!" Emperor Xuanzong's eyes widened in shock.!”Tang Xuanzong was also shocked and shouted," It was clearly Li Linchang who reported that the Uighurs were causing trouble in the horse market, and then they launched a rebellion!”
"Father, if things were as simple as Li Linchang said, why would I bring the Uighur Princess Ayimu to Chang 'an to complain?!”Li Yao said.
"What, what is going on?!”Tang Xuanzong was shocked.
"Imperial Father, let Princess Ayimu tell you the whole story personally.”Li Yao pretended to be sad.
Tang Xuanzong looked at Aimu again. Aimu could not wait to tell Tang Xuanzong the whole story.
When it came to the sad part, Ayi Mu started crying again.
Tang Xuanzong looked at Ayimu's appearance and his heart ached. Then, he said angrily,"Li Linchang, as the governor of the border, actually did such a thing to deceive the emperor and harm the country?! How dare you!"
"Imperial Father, you haven't seen the Uighur warriors we captured in Anbei. They all say that our Great Tang has betrayed us and provoked us for no reason!
Your son went down to ask and found out that he, Li Linchang, had actually acted so recklessly in Anbei. He even kept saying that he was an envoy of a high country and used all kinds of exorbitant taxes to oppress the people and the people of various races!”Li Yao said angrily again.
"Father, you are wise and mighty, but you are still kept in the dark. There must be something fishy about this!”
Li Yao's words could be said to be quite explicit.
Apart from the Emperor, only Prime Minister Li Linfu would know about such a major event.
Li Yao didn't need to reveal who had kept Tang Xuanzong in the dark.
"Yao 'Er, do you know who you're talking about?”Tang Xuanzong's face was livid as he asked," If there isn't sufficient evidence, I'm afraid the entire court will be shaken!”
At this moment, Gao Lishi appeared outside the hall and said,"Your Majesty, this old servant has something important to ask for an audience.”
When Li Yao heard Gao Lishi's voice, an imperceptible smile appeared on her face.
"Didn't I tell you to leave? What else do you have to report?" Tang Xuanzong said impatiently.
"Just now, when this old servant was cleaning up the table for His Majesty, I discovered a missing memorial. It was an urgent memorial written by His Highness the King of E on the 15th day of the 2nd month.”Gao Lishi said from outside.
"Bring it in quickly!" Tang Xuanzong said anxiously.
This urgent memorial was not the one from the 15th of February, which Li Linfu had burned long ago.
This letter should have been written on the 16th of March, which was the night Gao Lishi arrived at the Immensity Sea Military Governor's Office.
Li Yao relied on her super brain power to perfectly restore the memorial she had written in Helan City. She even perfectly copied Feng Changqing's handwriting.
"Lord Gao, please keep this memorial well. When I discuss this matter with my father, this memorial will become key evidence.”Li Yao repeatedly reminded Gao Lishi before he left the Immensity Sea Military Governor's Office.
"Don't worry! Your Highness, this old servant will protect this memorial even if I have to risk my life.”Gao Lishi guaranteed.
When Li Yao realized that Li Linfu had stopped his memorial, he realized that he had been targeted by Li Linfu.
In fact, Li Yao had already anticipated the assassination attempt on him and Feng Changqing.
He had become a thorn in Li Linfu's side. Then, he would definitely think of ways to return to the capital to confront him, and the best way was either to destroy the evidence or to destroy himself.
Therefore, Li Yao asked Gao Lishi to bring back not only the memorial but also the witnesses that Li Yao had found.
Even Feng Changqing and the other two didn't know about this.
According to Li Yao's own words, the conspiracy between him and Gao Lishi was actually quite dirty. It was better for him to do this kind of thing himself.
Thus, the people Li Linfu had ordered to be burned in Feng Changqing's camp were all the treasonous generals Li Yao had sent in.
Li Yao and Gao Lishi had successfully brought back all the useful witnesses to Chang 'an. Li Linfu had never dreamed that Li Yao would form an alliance with Gao Lishi.
In truth, this was quite normal. Li Linfu, who had been in charge of the government for many years, no longer cared about Gao Lishi.
However, from past experience, anyone who looked down on eunuchs, especially those who looked down on the Emperor's personal eunuchs, would not have a good ending.
It was not for nothing that a pavilion near the water would get the moon first.
Gao Lishi and Li Linfu lived closer to Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.
Before Li Linfu could figure out what was going on, Gao Lishi had already arrived before Tang Xuanzong with the witness and evidence that Li Yao had asked him to bring back.
"Preposterous!" When Emperor Xuanzong saw all this, he was so angry that he paced back and forth in the hall. Do you know the consequences of Li Linchang's actions?!
He, Li Linchang, instigated the relationship between the Great Tang and the Uighurs and ruined the reputation of the Great Tang! Our relationship with the Tubo people in Anxi has always been tense. If the Uighurs allied with the Tibetans and the Khitans of the Bohai Sea, they would invade our Great Tang from different directions.
If that was really the case, the consequences would be unimaginable! At that time, the territory of our Great Tang will be invaded and the people will be in trouble. He, Li Linchang, would not be able to atone for his sins even if he died ten thousand times!”
The more Tang Xuanzong spoke, the more agitated he became." That Li Linfu is even more despicable. He actually dared to hide such a big matter from us! If it weren't for you, Yao 'er, and the Uighurs quickly recovering Anbei and successfully negotiating with the Uighurs, the foundation of our Great Tang would have been in danger!”
Where is Li Linchang now?" Tang Xuanzong questioned.
"Your Majesty, ever since the incident in Anbei, Li Linchang has been transferred to the Chanyu Protectorate.”Gao Lishi promptly added another blow.
"What? In other words, not only did the imperial court not pursue Li Linchang's fault, but they even transferred him to another position?!”Tang Xuanzong was surprised.
He was about to ask who was so bold, but he immediately stopped talking.
Other than Li Linfu, who else would be so bold? Tang Xuanzong finally realized that this loyal Li Linfu was a threat to him.
Not only did he have eyes and hands in the court, but he also blocked all the rumors that leaked to him. Let yourself be immersed in the illusion that the court is safe and sound
What was he trying to do?
Tang Xuanzong gradually understood. The loyal minister by his side who was most worthy of his trust was actually the greatest disaster for him.
Li Yao looked at Tang Xuanzong's expression from the side and kept laughing in her heart. His goal had finally been achieved.
