At this moment, Li Jiancheng burst out with a dense killing intent, scaring Li Yuanji so much that he fell to his knees with a thud!
"Little brother…little brother also wants to help big brother deal with this hidden danger as soon as possible!”
Li Yuanji lowered his head and said in an extremely aggrieved manner,
"Ever since he returned to Chang 'an, he has been against you everywhere. He has been eyeing your throne covetously and can't wait to replace you!”
"Those spies have confessed that Li Shiming was the mastermind behind Yang Wengan's smuggling of the armor!”
"That time, he almost killed you, big brother! Who knows if he will do it again and make us doomed?!”
"This little brother did it all for you, big brother, so…"
He acted as if he was wholeheartedly thinking for his big brother, which greatly reduced the anger in Li Jiancheng's heart.
It also reminded him of bad memories.
In the seventh year of Wude, when Li Yuan was out on a summer vacation, Yang Wengan, the governor of Qingzhou, actually privately raised armaments!
Yang Wengan was his trusted aide.
After the matter was exposed, Li Yuan was furious. As the Crown Prince, he was directly accused of "rebellion"!
If he hadn't gone to his father alone to beg for forgiveness and used the ultimate trick of suffering himself, he would probably have already died under the blade!
Later, Li Yuan finally chose to believe him and did not pursue the matter any further.
However, during this period, he had been detained and suffered a lot! It was also the greatest suffering he had suffered in his life!
After the incident, he had always suspected that Yang Wengan did not take the initiative to self-destruct. He must have been instigated behind the scenes!
Moreover, there was an 80% chance that it was Li Shi Min, who had ambitions for the position of Crown Prince!
However, without conclusive evidence, he could only swallow this bitter fruit.
"Are you sure that Yang Wengan was the doing of second brother?”
Li Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression cold.
"I'm sure. He did it!"
Li Yuanji stood up and said,
"The spy confessed everything. Moreover, they have been monitoring the Eastern Palace and Martial Virtue Hall for the past two years.”
"If they didn't give themselves away and get uprooted by me, I'm afraid we would have been monitored for the rest of our lives.”
"Also, just now, this little brother tried to knock over that wine cup with all his might, but he didn't even move an inch. His cultivation is definitely above mine. I'm afraid he has already reached the emperor realm! You hid it so well!"
Li Jiancheng clenched his fists.
A chill rose from his heart. Even his killing intent gradually became denser.
"BenGong's good second brother, hehe…"
Li Jiancheng muttered,
"You're getting more and more dangerous…"
He also noticed it.
Just now, he tried his best to stop him, but he couldn't move Li Shi Min's hands at all.
He was a middle-stage emperor realm expert, yet he couldn't even fight against the other party? What realm was Li Shi Min at?
Was he also at the middle stage of the emperor realm…or the late stage?!
However, he had never revealed it to the outside world. The outside world thought that he had yet to step into the emperor realm!
If he hadn't been furious just now…he probably wouldn't have been able to find out!
If he was given more time to grow, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng turned to Li Yuanji and sighed heavily.
"Even so, you can't do such a reckless thing!”
He reprimanded,
"Li Shi Min has always been cautious. How risky is it for you to poison him with poisoned wine? Even if he really drank it, what if the poison didn't kill him?!”
"Even if we take ten thousand steps back, even if he's really poisoned to death! When the King of Qin dies in the Eastern Palace, the news will spread everywhere. How am I supposed to explain this to my father?!”
"Tell me!"
Li Yuanji lowered his head silently.
"I know I was wrong…I was too stupid. I only wanted to eliminate the enemy for big brother and didn't think so much…"
He obediently admitted his mistake.
Li Jiancheng stared at him and sneered. Then, he disappeared.
He really didn't think that much?
Not necessarily!
If the King of Qin died in the Eastern Palace, there would be countless criticisms from the court and the world. He, the Crown Prince, might lose the hearts of the people and even the Emperor!
Who would benefit the most in the end?
It was most likely this King Qi who only cared about his elder brother!
However, he wouldn't expose them because they were on the same side, and their common enemy was Li Shiming.
"I invited him here today to win him over, numb him, and make him lower his guard.”
He snorted coldly.
"As long as Imperial Father agrees to let you take over Li Jing's position and guard the border, we'll wipe out all the generals around him in one go! He is just Li Shi Min, isn't he at our mercy?”
"Look at you. After today's incident, he has a reason to complain. Your appointment certificate might not come down!”
"Really…you've messed up my plans!”
Li Yuanji was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head.
"Big Brother, he might not be able to successfully complain!”
He said with a vicious expression,
"Without evidence, Imperial Father will not believe him!”
"As long as we take all the people at the banquet today…"
As he spoke, he made a beheading gesture.
"Dead men can't testify! Father would never believe him! We can even make a countercharge!”
Li Yuanji revealed his plan.
Sinister!
In order to prevent Li Shiming from successfully complaining, he had to kill all the relevant personnel!
"Kill them all?"
Li Jiancheng was shocked at first, then he said hesitantly,
"This…It doesn't matter if I kill the attendants, but those guests, they are all my advisors.”
He found it difficult to do it…mainly, he was cutting off his own left and right arms!
"Big brother!"
Li Yuanji shouted,
"Don't be so soft-hearted at a time like this!”
"When you overthrow Li Shiming and become the emperor, everyone in the world will be your ministers! Are you still afraid of not having an advisor?"
"They haven't gone far. As long as you say the word, I'll immediately dispatch spies and kill them all!”
Li Jiancheng pinched the space between his eyebrows.
"…Alright."
He said in a deep voice,
"Hurry up and don't let anyone off!”
"After this is done, we will enter the palace tonight to meet the emperor and beg father to decide on your status!”
Li Yuanji revealed a look of joy and immediately accepted the order!
The most ruthless was the imperial family. With a single sentence, the heads of their former relatives and friends rolled off.
This night was destined to be stained with blood!
……
Clack clack.
On the dark streets of Chang 'an, a thin man was running for his life.
His eyes were filled with fear, and from time to time, he looked back as if someone was chasing him.
However, after running for a long time, there was still no movement. He finally stopped and heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as he was relaxing, a ghostly voice suddenly sounded beside his ear.
"Lord Wei, are you looking for me?"
Wei Zheng was speechless.
All the hair on his body stood on end as he saw a flash of saber light in front of him!
The spy killed mercilessly. Along the way, he had already killed almost ten Eastern Palace aides. Wei Zheng ran the fastest, so he was the last.
After killing this, he would call it a day.
" He learned the Dragon Slaying Technique and sold it to the Emperor's family…"
Wei Zheng closed his eyes in pain and muttered.
Back then, he had studied the Dragon Slaying Art painstakingly, thinking that one day, he would be able to display his ambition and seek blessings for the people of the world.
He didn't expect that…he would actually die in the open and secret struggles between the princes!
It was also time…to live in the imperial family, where life was no longer valuable…
His heart was already prepared to welcome death, but the butcher's knife did not land.
Wei Zheng opened his eyes in confusion.
The person who wanted to kill him had actually collapsed to the ground at this moment. He had long since lost his breath.
In front of him was a cold-looking swordsman.
"Mr. Wei Zheng, I'm here to pick you up under the orders of the Lord.”
The swordsman said calmly,
"Please follow me."
Wei Zheng was speechless.
