"Have you heard? Something big has happened in the palace.”
"What is it?"
"What?!"
"Li substitutes for Tao Jiang, Yang Hua all over the world? What did Su Wei, the granddaughter of the previous dynasty, want to do?”
"Who knows? I heard that this miss Chan 'Er is very familiar with His Highness Ke.”
"Does this mean that His Highness Ke will inherit the throne in the future?”
"It's very possible. His Highness Ke has the bloodline of the previous dynasty. Inheriting the throne and restoring the Sui Dynasty, wouldn't it be like replacing a peach corpse with a plum tree and filling the world with Yang flowers?”
……
At night, before the court session, the rumors began to spread in the city and became more and more intense. Gradually, it evolved into the Yang and Li dynasties, the previous dynasty and this dynasty, and Li Ke representing the former dynasty to restore the Yang clan's world.
The speed at which the rumors evolved was unexpected.
In the Eastern Palace.
"Uncle, aren't you going a little overboard?”Zhangsun Wuji left the Ministry of Central Affairs early and arrived at the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. Li Chengqian frowned and said,""Are the rumors outside trying to force Li Ke to death? I never thought of taking his life! If it wasn't for him saving me back then, I would have been crippled by my father.”
Rumors about the Eastern Palace continued to spread from the outside, and Li Chengqian felt afraid when he heard them.
He had never thought of taking Li Ke's life.
He just wanted to cut off Li Ke's path to the throne.
The rumors outside were simply forcing Imperial Father to kill Li Ke.
He was terrified of the aristocrats behind his uncle.
Zhangsun Wuji could feel the anger and panic beneath his nephew's calm expression. He also knew the reason for these emotions.
"This is Chengqian's power play, politics. It's not that uncle wants his life, but the Shi clan can't tolerate him!”
"Do you know how the leaders of the aristocratic families all over the world view Li Ke?”
"They all agreed that Li Ke is similar to Yang Guang! The pain that Yang Guang had left behind for the gentry was still fresh in their minds, and no one would take the risk to make a mistake.”
"Of course, you don't have to worry about Li Ke. I understand His Majesty. His Majesty would never kill his own flesh and blood.”
Li Chengqian understood the meaning behind his uncle's words.
Imperial Father would not go so far as to do this, but the Shi clan would definitely beat up a dog that was down in the water and would not let Li Ke off.
The study fell silent.
At the same time.
Li Ke was also in the mansion.
His brothers were all here, and no one avoided him at this time to protect themselves.
Li Ke was very touched by this.
"Big Brother, you must leave Chang 'an as soon as possible.”Wei Shuyu's expression was solemn as he suggested," The rumors in Chang 'an are too hurtful. This can't be solved by your response. It's completely different from the last rumor."”
"Someone is deliberately trying to drive a wedge between you and His Majesty. The more you do at this time, the more mistakes you will make.”
The other brothers nodded.
When Li Ke was still in the palace, the brothers were already thinking of countermeasures.
Wei Shuyu's suggestion was the best solution at the moment.
"Also, Big Brother, Zhangsun Chong mentioned that the old camp must have heard the rumors. He was worried that someone would take advantage of the chaos in the old camp to infiltrate and steal our production process.”"That's why he, Niu Lu, Chu Liang, and the others have already left the city in advance. They will be guarding the old barracks today."”
"Yes."
Li Ke nodded. These suggestions were very good.
However, he was not prepared to leave dejectedly.
Although he couldn't do anything to the Shi clan now, his mother almost had a miscarriage. He couldn't just let it go.
Leave, he also wanted to leave arrogantly!
"You are right, especially the arrangement of the old barracks.”
After a short pause, Li Ke added,"However, I don't think the old barracks are appropriate enough. There's still some time before the city gates close.”
" Big Brother, you can't act on impulse. Mobilizing troops at this time…" Wei Shuyu grabbed Li Ke's hand and quickly stopped him.
Cheng Chumo saw that Li Ke's expression was very determined and knew that it was difficult to make Li Ke change his mind, so he volunteered,"Big brother, give me the command token, I'll go and get the soldiers out of the city.”
"As the son of a living bandit, no one knows better than me how to be arrogant.”
"And me." Hou Jun stood up and said,"There's a young duke from the Right Martial Guard family, so how can there not be one from the Left Martial Guard family!"”
"I'll go too." The big and tanned Fang Yi 'ai stood up and said.
"And me."
"This kind of flashy, arrogant, and scoundrel thing can't be done without me.”
……
Very soon, the brothers were about to participate.
Li Ke understood that his brothers wanted to punish everyone.
They were all the legitimate sons of the new nobles in Chang 'an. Even if they made a big fuss, could the aristocrats kill all of them, the most powerful sons of the new nobles?
" Big Brother…" Wei Shuyu hesitated for a moment before he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice,"" The court is about to end. I remember that Wei Gui, the official of Guanglu Temple, is the uncle of Empress Wei Zhaorong. The Black Knights are about to pass through Vermilion Bird Street. When the cavalry leaves the city, it will be inevitable that there will be chaos and collisions…"
The brothers all looked at Wei Shuyu, their eyes filled with shock.
No one would have thought that Old Wei of the Old Wei family was a ruthless person, and Little Wei was also like a tiger father, like a dog son.
It was even better than his master!
Li Ke pondered for a moment and nodded." Let's do it. I'll take care of anything that happens!"”
"Big Brother is so bold!" Wei Shuyu smiled and gave Li Ke a thumbs up.
The brothers could only nod in agreement, but in their hearts, they wished they could beat the little rascal of the Wei family into a pig.
They were not afraid of trouble, but they were afraid that it would make their big brother's situation worse.
After leaving the Imperial Residence, they were on their way to the Royal Guards 'camp.
Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Chumo, and Wei Shuyu intentionally distanced themselves from their brothers.
"Shu Yu, what exactly are you trying to do? Wouldn't this make big brother's situation worse?" Qin Huaiyu asked in a low voice.”
"Huaiyu, could it be that big brother's current situation is better?”Wei Shuyu asked back,"Besides, with Big Brother's personality, the Empress almost had a miscarriage. How could he not vent his anger on such a big matter?"”
"Now let us do it. Big brother will be safer if we let him vent his anger.”
" Furthermore, I want to know what His Majesty's bottom line is regarding Big Brother's control of the Black Knights. This time, I'm testing His Majesty's bottom line…"
Wei Shuyu's final words were even softer, causing Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo's expressions to change drastically.
"You bastard, what do you want to do!”Cheng Chumo sat on his warhorse and grabbed Wei Shuyu's collar, suppressing his anger.
The brothers all turned to look at the three of them.
"Chumo, let go of me first!" Qin Huaiyu glared at Cheng Chumo, then said to the other brothers,"It's fine. Go to the Royal Guards first and promise to order the Black Knights to get ready!”
After the other brothers left, Qin Huaiyu asked solemnly,""Shu Yu, now you must tell us what you want to do!”
"How is the Crown Prince? What about the king of Wei? How is our big brother?"
Before the two of them could answer, Wei Shuyu said,""If I choose the future Crown Prince, I choose Big Brother!”
"It's not that I want to get the credit of following the dragon. My father is also the Crown Prince's teacher. Moreover, in terms of our family background, we will inherit the title of nobility in the future and will also enjoy glory and wealth.”
"I just like the kind of golden age that big brother described. The other two don't have that ability.”
"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that we are sworn brothers with Big Brother. I'm inclined towards Big Brother, but Big Brother is too lazy. He's always fantasizing about the golden age in front of us when he has nothing to do, but he himself has always been unmoved by the fight for the Crown Prince.”
"To be honest, I've long wanted to lay my cards on the table with Big Brother, but I didn't dare to. I'm afraid that after I lay my cards on the table, I won't even be able to be brothers.”
"Then what if you test His Majesty's bottom line in private and Big Brother finds out our true purpose?”Cheng Chumo said angrily.
Wei Shuyu revealed a signature smile that was very similar to Li Ke's shameless act. He spread his hands and said,"It's not like we're going to push Big Brother to the front now.”
"After His Majesty dies a hundred years later, we brothers will secretly make preparations. Can't we give Big Brother a royal robe? "At that time, Big Brother couldn't even refuse. He had to lead us brothers to achieve the golden age he described. In his words, he couldn't just dig a hole and not bury it.”
"The bottom line of His Majesty's tolerance for the Black Knights now determines how much we can do in the preparation phase in the future, right?”Cheng Chumo asked.
"Yes."
Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo looked at each other and nodded. At the same time, they said in a deep voice,"Then let's try."
Then, Qin Huaiyu reminded him," This matter can only be known to the three of us at the moment. As for the other brothers…we can't tell them for the time being. When we should tell them, the three of us must reach an agreement.”
"Good!"
"Giddyup!"
The three of them came to an agreement. They laughed in a rare relaxed manner and urged their horses to gallop.
Li Ke had underestimated his brother.
He had underestimated the restlessness in the blood of these anti-second-generation heirs.
He did not expect that the half-baked descriptions of the prosperous times that his brothers had chatted with each other on a daily basis would be so attractive to these hot-blooded young people.
And those fantasies, Li Ke himself was just talking nonsense after drinking.
He did not have any theoretical support, any practical experience, or even a relatively complete system.
But Li Ke did not know this.
He was currently writing a strategy post for Li Tai, and his sword was aimed directly at the aristocrats of the world!
He believed that Li Tai would definitely dare to accept this gift.
