Chang 'an Fortress of the Tang Empire!
Li Jiancheng went to consult the God of War, Li Jing, with gifts. They discussed the matter of guarding the border in Li Jing's residence from the afternoon until late at night.
No one knew what they were talking about.
They only knew that when Li Jiancheng entered, there were three people, but when he left, there were five people.
The next day, Li Jiancheng went to the border, a week earlier than expected.
The King of Qin, Li Shimin, personally went out of the city to see him off.
It also made many rumors about the estrangement between the two brothers disappear.
After Li Jiancheng left, Li Shimin took over the government. Although there were some twists and turns in the court, as Li Shimin gained more experience, it was much better.
Xiao Yu, Pei Ji, and the others had helped him with all their might. This was also the biggest reason.
As for Li Yuan, he seemed to have disappeared from everyone's sight. Countless people in Chang 'an tried to find out about Li Yuan, but the officials did not know.
What was Li Yuan doing or where did he go?
The officials of the five surnames and seven Wangs wanted to meet Li Yuan, but they didn't expect the court to be so calm. Countless speculations began to spread.
There were even rumors that Li Yuan had been placed under house arrest by Li Shimin and that Li Shimin would ascend the throne soon.
Longxi County!
In a courtyard.
Eunuch Lin clenched the information in his hand into a ball and threw it on the ground. He looked at the Embroidered Uniform Guards and said,""Ridiculous. Don't let me see such news in the future!”
"Esteemed guest, you're about to arrive. Don't make any mistakes.”
"I understand, Eunuch Lin," the Embroidered Uniform Guard said respectfully.”
Eunuch Lin waved his hand, signaling for him to leave.
After the Embroidered Uniform Guards left, the courtyard regained its peace. There were no maids. He did not understand that Li Yuan was not bad at dealing with the Five Families and Seven Wangs.
But why was it that the first strike had been directed at the Li Clan of Longxi?
After all, this was where Li Yuan came from.
Of course, Eunuch Lin knew that this was not something he should be worried about. Thus, he rode his horse to purchase everything in advance because Li Yuan's identity was absolutely confidential.
Therefore, he had bought a courtyard as a temporary residence.
Lin Cheng waited patiently in Longxi County. Li Yuan quickly brought his men over. Guan Yu was the only one following him. The Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun and the Dragon Cavalry had all sneaked into Longxi County.
With their skills, they were not afraid of being discovered.
When Lin Cheng saw Li Yuan, he respectfully closed the door and bowed.""This old servant pays his respects to Your Majesty. Your Majesty has had a tough journey.”
Li Yuan looked at the yard and saw a tree. He said,""You're very thoughtful. Show me the information you've gathered.”
When Lin Cheng heard this, he respectfully went forward and handed a stack of information to Li Yuan. A portion of this information was related to the Li Clan of Longxi.
The other part was news from Chang 'an and other places.
Li Yuan sat there and watched without any expression on his face. After a long time, he said,"The Li Clan of Longxi is relying on This Emperor's protection to extend their hands a little too far.”
"This is not what was written in the letter to me before.”
Eunuch Lin stood there and said,""Your Majesty, this old servant came here in a hurry to investigate, but I've already discovered no less than three Turkic spies.”
"They walk around here without any fear.”
"It's as if someone is protecting us, but it's also possible that it's just a Turkic plot.”
After all, he was Li Yuan's relative.
Eunuch Lin didn't dare to jump to conclusions.
Li Yuan put the information in his hand aside and looked at Lin Cheng.""Bring someone to catch a tongue and come back to take a look. Don't alarm the others.”
Lin Cheng nodded slightly and quietly walked out.
The Brocade Guard's control over Longxi County was already very strong. If he couldn't even do this small thing well, then he had followed Li Yuan for so many years in vain.
In a very short time.
Eunuch Lin brought two people back. Both of them were dressed like farmers, but they were carrying a sack. They placed the sack on the ground and turned to leave.
From the moment they appeared to the moment they disappeared, they did not say a single word.
The door closed again.
"Your Majesty, the Turkic spy has been brought here." Eunuch Lin also spoke.”
Li Yuan's gaze landed on the sack. Guan Yu immediately opened the sack and dragged the person out.
Qian San was Tang Ming, the Turkic spy. Ever since he had been kidnapped, his face had been filled with confusion. In his opinion, he had hidden himself quite well in the Great Tang.
Why was he still discovered?
Until he saw the person in front of him tear off the rag in his mouth.
He knew that if he shouted now, only death would await him. It was better to act according to the situation. He said in fear,"Who…who are you?"
"Why did you knock me out? What is this place?”
"Do you know that you are violating the laws of the Tang Empire? I advise you to let me go. Otherwise, I will definitely report you to the county magistrate.”
Li Yuan listened to the Turkic spy speak fluently.
Without many years of experience, it was impossible to say this. He revealed an interested expression and said,"What? The Turks also abide by the laws of our Great Tang?”
"It seems that you are already prepared to submit, right?”
Qian San had been exposed in an instant. Even though he had thousands of methods, he still felt a little guilty at this moment. However, he still pretended to be puzzled and said,"Turks?"
"Who's a Turkic? I was born and raised in the Tang, not some steppe barbarian.”
Li Yuan tapped the table lightly and said,""Lin Cheng, he's yours. Within an hour, I need to know why they've come to the Great Tang.”
A cruel smile appeared on Lin Cheng's face as he looked at Qian San with a sinister look.
Li Yuan gave him the Jinyiwei training manual.
He studied more seriously than anyone else.
And many of the punishments had left him flabbergasted. Now, he could test it out.
Lin Cheng brought Qian San down for interrogation.
Guan Yu stepped forward and said,"Your Majesty, the Li Clan of Longxi is just a clan. I have 300 Dragon Cavalry under me."”
"With the help of the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun, if you let me go, I will be able to stay in the Li family mansion tonight.”
Li Yuan listened to Guan Yu's words, but his expression did not change at all. He just handed a stack of information to Guan Yu and said,"Longxi's Li Clan is nothing to worry about."
"It's just that since he's colluding with the Turks, it looks like I'll have to personally pay him a visit.”
Guan Yu's eyes were filled with worry as he said,""Your Majesty, the Li Residence has been in operation for a thousand years after all, and there are probably many death warriors.”
"If the formation is opened up, no matter how many people there are, this general will not be afraid.”
"But in a close combat, the Li Clan of Longxi will not be spared. If they hurt you, then they will have to die ten thousand times to atone for their sins.”
Li Yuan stood up and patted Guan Yu's shoulder. A look of disdain appeared in his eyes as he said confidently,""They don't have the guts."
Guan Yu didn't say anything else. He only knew that no matter what happened, he would protect Li Yuan.
At the same time.
Lin Cheng also walked over from the backyard and wiped his hands with a silk handkerchief. His body was suffused with a faint bloody smell, but there was a pleasantly surprised expression on his face as he said,"Your Majesty, the Li Clan of Longxi and the Li Clan of Zhao County are both here.”
"This time, it seems that you can go to one less place.”
At least two more chapters in the afternoon
