When Zhao Dequan rushed to the Liangyi Palace, he was surprised to find that Lu Guogong was also waiting outside the hall.
Zhao Dequan bowed down and saluted Lu Guogong.
Cheng Yanjin sat there and glanced at him, didn't even get up, just nodded expressionlessly as a salute.
Zhao Dequan didn't care about this, he hadn't seen Cheng Biting Jin's stinky face for a day or two, and he would retreat when he saw Cheng Biting Jin on weekdays to avoid intersecting with him.
It's just that the letter in his hand today is too important, so he has to stay with Cheng Yanjin and wait for the summons of the saint.
The two of them just sat there expressionlessly, neither of them spoke, and the scene was embarrassing for a while.
One of the two people is the commander of the secret guard, which is regarded as the emperor's personal guard, who is stationed in the palace all day long, and his activities are around Li Shimin, and he is loyal.
The other is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, commanding nearly half of the soldiers and horses around Chang'an City, and even the guards guarding the palace are guarded by Cheng Yanjin's third son, which shows that this old man has won the trust and respect of the emperor, and it is not an exaggeration to call him the Dinghai Divine Needle of the empire.
It stands to reason that both of them have won the trust of the emperor, and they should be familiar with each other and have a good relationship.
But in fact, they don't like each other, Zhao Dequan feels that Cheng Biting Jin is selling the old with the old, and he is not ashamed.
And Cheng Yanjin thinks that Zhao Dequan is bullying and flattering, relying on the emperor's guard eyes to be above the top, and he doesn't take anyone in his eyes.
Cheng Biting Jin once beat Zhao Dequan twice in person, and Zhao Dequan also cursed the process of biting Jin behind his back, although the relationship between the two was bad, although it was not known to everyone, but almost all those who knew Zhao Dequan's identity had heard of it.
After the chamberlain in charge of the tea in the outer hall also served tea to Zhao Dequan later, he dodged far away, fearing that the two would fight in the hall and splash his blood again.
After a while, Liu Ying, the chief attendant of the inner hall, came out of the inner hall, glanced at Lu Guogong and Zhao Dequan, who were waiting in the outer hall, and said softly: "There is a decree in the saint, pass Lu Guogong to the inner hall to see!"
Grandpa Guo, please come with the villain!
” Cheng Yanjin got up in response, didn't even look at Zhao Dequan, and stepped out of the palace gate.
"What's the spirit?
If you weren't born decades earlier than Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu would have been even better than you!
Zhao Dequan pursed his lips angrily.
Cheng Yanjin is older than him, his official rank is higher than him, and his prestige in the court is also in full swing, and when he sees the emperor, he naturally takes precedence over him.
It's just that he can't get used to Cheng Biting Jin's eyes and attitude of contempt for him, it's so annoying!
After that, as Cheng bit the Golden Face Saint for more and more time, Zhao Dequan became more and more impatient in his heart.
The time of the two teas has passed, and I haven't seen Cheng Biting Jin come out, and I haven't seen the Holy Messenger summon him in, when will it be?
What did Old Man Cheng say to the saint when he went in, would it be bad for him?
He knew that Li Shimin did not only hand over the interception of Fuchuan's letters to him, but after him, the saint also secretly summoned Lu Guogong into the palace, and his purpose was naturally self-evident.
Now that Cheng Yanjin saw the saint before him, and he has been talking with the saint for so long, don't Cheng Yanjin's pursuit have made any breakthroughs, right?
Zhao Dequan pinched the letter in his hand, and began to feel a little apprehensive in his heart, if Cheng Yanjin was allowed to steal the first credit, then the role of his letter would not be so important.
Da-da-da-da!
There was another sound of footsteps in the inner hall, Zhao Dequan hurriedly looked up, and the inner servant Liu Ying appeared again, glanced at Zhao Dequan, and said softly: "Commander Zhao, the saint is invited, you clean up and come in with the old slave!"
” Liu Ying's attitude towards Zhao Dequan was far less respectful than when he had just summoned Lu Guogong, but Zhao Dequan was too lazy to care about it, he had waited for this moment for too long, and he couldn't wait.
When entering the inner hall, as Zhao Dequan expected, there were only two people in the hall, Li Shimin and Cheng Yanjin.
Directly ignoring the existence of Cheng Biting Jin, Zhao Dequan hurriedly stepped forward to greet Li Shimin, Li Shimin glanced up at him, waved his hand and said, "Excuse me."
You came here in such a hurry, but what progress has the case made?
” Zhao Dequan lowered his head and pleaded guilty: "The saint forgives the sin, Weichen is incompetent, and there is no new discovery." ” Afraid that Li Shimin would be angry again, Zhao Dequan hurriedly raised the letter in his hand and said, "However, Weichen has just received a letter from Fuchuan, which is urgently sent by the deputy commander of the dynasty through the secret channel of the secret guard, please take a look!"
” "Oh?"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but turn his head to glance at Cheng Yanjin next to him, and then asked directly to Zhao Dequan: "Can you be sure that the letter is indeed from the hands of the dynasty?"
Don't be the smoke that the people behind the scenes are deliberately emitting. ” Zhao Dequan said calmly: "Rest assured, every letter from the dynasty has a code word, only Weichen and the dynasty know in this world, Weichen can guarantee his life, this letter is definitely not counterfeited by others!"
” Liu Ying walked softly, stretched out her hands to take the letter, and then bowed down to present it to Li Shimin's desk.
After receiving the letter, Li Shimin did not rush to read it, but said lightly: "This is really a coincidence, there has been no news from Fuchuan, I don't want to come here with two letters!"
” Zhao Dequan was taken aback, and couldn't help but turn his head to glance at Cheng Yanjin beside him, he didn't expect Cheng Yanjin to come to deliver a letter.
Yes, the only thing that can be compared with their secret guards in terms of communication speed is the special teleportation channel in the army, thinking that Cheng Huaibi is also in Fuchuan at the moment, Zhao Dequan's heart suddenly understood, it must be that Princess Jinyang also noticed that something was wrong, so he ordered Cheng Huaibi to rush back through the secret channel in the army.
"Just now, Lu Guogong also sent a letter over, which was written by the girl of my son, telling some of her special experiences in Fuchuan during this time, and at the same time asking me if I had received the letter a few days ago, and why I didn't reply to it for a long time."
Li Shimin's face was not very good-looking, although he had had similar guesses before, but when he really saw Princess Jinyang's letter, he was still a little incredulous.
"There is also a secret report, which was delivered along with the letter from the little son, the secret report was written by Cheng Huaibi himself, and he was pleading guilty to me, because his guards were not careful, so that Jinyang was frightened by the assassins, and he was in a coma all night before waking up!"
Li Shimin raised his hand and shook the letter in his hand, and asked Zhao Dequan in a deep voice: "You must have read this letter, and the content in it is the same, right?"

” Zhao Dequan was excited, and hurriedly bowed down: "Holy Shengming, what the dynasty said in the letter is the same as Princess Jinyang and Cheng Huaibi, but there are some discrepancies about Princess Jinyang being frightened and unconscious. ” "When Princess Jinyang was assassinated, the dynasty was nearby, and although Princess Jinyang was indeed frightened, the reason why she passed out was actually ......
It was that Li Feng Gongzi was afraid that Princess Jinyang would be too frightened, so he pressed the sleeping hole of Her Royal Highness the princess in advance, which had no effect on her body. ” "What doesn't matter!"
Li Shimin was so excited that he slammed the table and roared loudly: "None of you know the physical condition of the little son, how can she stand the slightest fright?!"
Since she was a child, she has never even seen a chicken killed, let alone killed?!
” Cheng Huaibi's report clearly stated that a total of fifteen assassins appeared at the same time to besiege and kill, Li Feng and Genfu desperately guarded, first after killing several people, then insisted on the guards in the palace to catch up, ensuring the safety of Princess Jinyang.
The siege and killing of fifteen vicious assassins, when he thought of the scene at that time, Li Shimin's heart was inexplicably painful, how could the little son have experienced this, that child must have been frightened at that time!
While feeling sorry for Princess Jinyang, Li Shimin couldn't help but recall the experience of his eldest son Li Chengqian when he was young, and there was a faint sourness in his heart.
Unlike the little son, who grew up under his care since he was a child, when Li Chengqian was born, Li Shimin was just a small His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who fought abroad all the year round, and rarely had time to accompany the young eldest son, and even because of his identity as the King of Qin, some opponents often sent assassins to assassinate the family members in the rear.
Since Li Chengqian was born, to his entry into the East Palace as the crown prince, there have been no less than ten assassinations almost every year.
Who knows the hardships and sorrows of this child's ability to survive assassination after assassination, and to stand up strong in fear again and again?
His previous timid and cowardly personality was not due to the fact that he was frightened again and again?
After becoming the crown prince, the situation in the court was stable, and Li Chengqian finally lived a stable life for a few days.
But now, without the shroud of the crown prince's aura, the familiar assassination life has returned, and someone has raised a butcher's knife at him and opened his fangs.
Syllable!
Li Shimin couldn't help but slam the table in front of him again, the things on the table were shaken and jumped, and the tea was turned to the ground.
Cheng Yanjin and Zhao Dequan bent down at the same time: "The Holy Lord is angry!"
” "It's still the same sentence!"
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said sharply: "Give me a thorough investigation, I want to know who it is who wants the lives of my children!"
”
