Patter, patter.
Li Shi Min placed his stone quickly.
Although his chess skills were not as good as Li Chen's, it was still easy for him to crush Li Yuan.
The main reason was that Li Yuan's skill level was indeed too bad, but he was deceived by Li Chen and thought that he was very strong.
Therefore, he quickly fell into a disadvantage.
"Erlang…your chess skills seem to have improved greatly.”
Li Yuan frowned as he muttered to himself, thinking of a way to break out of this situation.
If this continued, he would probably lose in less than a hundred moves.
Li Shi Min nodded and suddenly said,
"Imperial Father, the guards at the palace gates have been changing quite frequently recently. Some of them look unfamiliar to your son and I almost couldn't enter just now.”
He began to probe.
"What? Which door did you enter from?"
"From the Black Tortoise Gate."
Li Shi Min said in a deep voice.
He didn't reply and focused on thinking of a way to break out of this situation.
"Imperial Father, don't stick to defense. Sometimes, offense is the best defense.”
He pointed out,
Such a shallow loophole, yet he still needed his guidance. His old father's chess skills…
"Haha! I see. You're right. Offense is the best defense!”
Of course, Li Shiming had deliberately cooperated with him.
In the end, Li Yuan won with the advantage of three.
Li Yuan commented,
"You are determined to forge ahead, which is naturally good, but you have neglected the way of defense, which is why I found the flaw.”
"And your defense isn't exquisite enough. In my opinion, although there are flaws in the upper part, it's not impossible to defend. It's a pity that you gave up resisting.”
"This directly led to your later efforts being useless because you lost too much in the beginning. Even if you fight back, you are still much weaker than me.”
He stroked his beard and laughed, and Li Shimin nodded respectfully.
It's all because I let you! If I don't let you, I'll kill your entire army within 120 moves!
"Oh right, what did you say just now?”
Li Yuan asked casually.
"Your son said that your son entered the palace from Black Tortoise Gate.”
Li Shi Min replied.
Li Yuan said with some doubt,
"Why did you almost fail to enter?"
Li Shi Min's pupils shrank and his hand trembled.
……
"Damn it, damn it!"
King Qi Li Yuanji furiously paced back and forth in the hall, shouting,
"What did I say? What did I say!"
"That Li Chen is with Li Shi Min! Big Brother, think about it. A biological son is a biological son. How could he not help his father?”
"In the past, he was just pretending. This time, he finally revealed his true colors!”
"We're doomed!"
It was already late at night, but they had just received news that Wei Zheng had been detained by Li Chen for bribery.
It was ridiculous that they were able to learn of this news because Wei Zheng had not returned for a long time. Li Jiancheng was puzzled and sent someone to the Jingzhao yamen to ask about the situation.
"Keep your voice down. Don't shout.”
Li Jiancheng held a teacup in his hand, his expression extremely gloomy. He shouted in a low voice,
"Are you afraid that others can't hear you?"
Bribing the governor of Jingzhao was a major crime of treason!
He didn't know the exact situation, nor did he know what Li Chen and Wei Zheng had said, nor did he know how they were convicted!
His eyes were dark, and this made him extremely frustrated.
She was also a little uneasy and afraid.
If it was Li Shiming who set him up, then he…had he fallen into the trap?!
In the seventh year of Wude, he had secretly sent the armor to Yang Wengan in Bingzhou. Because someone under him had reported it, he had been tricked by Li Shimin and was almost stripped of his throne by Li Yuan for treason!
If it wasn't for the fact that he was crying and kowtowing until his head was bleeding and Li Yuan felt that something was wrong, he would have let him off.
He had investigated the matter and found out that it was Li Shiming who had infiltrated the Eastern Palace!
After that, he cleaned up the Eastern Palace and killed many people. Only then did he feel at ease as the Crown Prince for two years.
But now, the dark cloud of 'treason' was hanging over his head again. The butcher's knife was hanging high. How could he not be afraid?
"Big brother, Li Shiming is desperate! Can't you tell?"
Li Yuanji said sternly,
"I'm going to lead my troops to war the day after tomorrow, but he asked his son to detain Wei Zheng today and charge him with bribery. This is to make Imperial Father suspicious and not let me go. I won't let you have a good time either!”
"What a good plan to kill two birds with one stone! You made Imperial Father wary of me and suspect you. He's good. He can sit back and reap the benefits!”
"Good second brother, you're really vicious!"
Li Jiancheng frowned.
"Sit down and analyze it with me."
Other than Wei Zheng, Li Jiancheng thought about it and realized with regret that he had a few generals who were good at fighting, but not a single strategist!
Compared to Li Shi Min's advisors, it was simply too shabby.
This made him a little depressed.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the Imperial Attendants have come to invite Your Highness the Crown Prince into the Palace.”
