"Hmm?"
Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows and said,
"Imperial Father summoned you? It's so late…"
He had an ominous feeling in his heart as he looked at Li Yuanji.
Li Jiancheng waved his hand.
A moment later, a red-robed chamberlain entered the hall and bowed to Li Jiancheng.
The red-robed chamberlain looked up and said with a smile,
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness King Qi, His Majesty has summoned you to the palace.”
When Li Jiancheng heard this, he could not help but ask,
"Why, it's already so late, but Imperial Father still wants to see me. Is there something urgent?”
"He even brought King Qi along…"
He glanced at Li Yuanji again.
It wouldn't be strange if he was summoned alone, but it was strange if Li Yuanji was summoned as well.
"His Majesty summoned you because of the matter of Crown Prince Wei Zheng bribing Jingzhao Governor Li Chen.”
The red-robed chamberlain spoke bluntly.
"Nonsense! When did bengong bribe Li Chen? I only sent Wei Zheng to congratulate the Prince of Luling on his promotion!”
"This must be a false accusation! Did Imperial Father not understand? This is a false accusation!"
He panicked.
Li Yuanji stood up abruptly and cursed,"
"Even a fool can see that this is Li Shiming's doing. The father and son have colluded to set up a trap for the Eastern Palace!”
"How could Imperial Father not know? It must be you eunuchs who received benefits from the King of Qin and fanned the flames in front of Father, right?”
He reached out and grabbed the red-robed attendant's neck, slapping him twice!
Li Yuanji had always been rude and unreasonable, especially when it came to these servants. He didn't even look at them and beat and scolded them at will.
" Your Highness, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
The red-robed chamberlain hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried for mercy,
"Moreover…His Majesty has also announced that His Highness the King of Qin's Zhangsun Wuji has also been detained by Governor Li for bribery!”
"Li Shi Min's men have been captured too?”
Li Jiancheng said in surprise,
"Get up and talk, quickly!"
With Li Jiancheng's help, the red-robed chamberlain dared to stand up and report,
"Governor Li sent a memorial to His Majesty, saying that the Eastern Palace and the Heavenly Policy Manor had given him gifts to bribe him. Therefore, they detained the two people who had given him gifts and waited for His Majesty's judgment.”
"His Majesty was very angry when he heard about this, so he issued an imperial edict to summon Your Highness.”
"It's definitely not us who played tricks. Your Highness, please investigate!”
He tried his best to clear his name.
"Hehe, bribery? We were kind enough to congratulate him on his promotion, but in his mouth, it became bribery!”
"This kid, does he think that he's very impressive after being favored by a bastard son? Do you believe that I'll go to the Jingzhao government office tomorrow and give him a beating to wake him up!”
He was very disdainful of Li Chen, because he was only Li Shi Min's bastard son, not his legitimate son.
"That kid is a lunatic. If you were bitten by him, you would be worse off than Li Shi Min!”
Li Yuanji pursed his lips and eventually didn't say anything.
When Li Chen went crazy, he would bite whoever he caught. Even he was afraid of him.
Li Jiancheng supported the red-robed attendant and said with a smile.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare…"
Eunuch Zhang was overwhelmed by the favor and hurriedly retreated.
"Just sit down. Men, serve tea!”
Eunuch Zhang caught the tea but sat upright, not daring to move.
"Eunuch, tell bengong, how does father feel right now?”
"Was he very angry after receiving the memorial? Or…what?"
Therefore, they did not even have any first-hand information! He could only ask Li Yuan's servants to get information.
After hearing this, Li Yuanji couldn't help but laugh and say,""Flatterer."
"That's good, hahaha…"
Li Jiancheng smiled and said,
"Men, reward!"
The maidservant handed over an ingot of glistening yellow gold to Eunuch Zhang.
He repeatedly rejected.
In the past, bribing eunuchs was something he disdained to do, but recently, he felt that this matter was even more important!
Having someone in the palace made things easier.
"Go!"
Halfway through his journey, he suddenly took out the gold ingot from his bosom. He looked at it again and again, and a mocking expression appeared on his face.
"Hehe, this gold ingot is just compensation for those two slaps! You don't treat us as humans, hehehe…"
He remembered the two slaps Li Yuanji had given him, and his eyes filled with hatred.
