"He didn't ask for this. Why don't you ask him what good he did?" Li Shimin pointed to Li You, who was pretending to be pitiful, "He sent dead men to burn Li Min's mansion. Said, and let people assassinate Li Yin, in my opinion, even if he was beaten to death by Li Yin, he deserved it!"

"Your Majesty, those are all Li Yin's one-sided words. Li Yin has been cunning and treacherous since he was a child. How could the Emperor believe his words? This Li Yin must be looking for this excuse to eradicate dissidents. Now it is Li You, and the next ones are Li Chengqian and Li Tai. , I think he is rushing to the throne." Concubine Yin felt sorry for Li You, and she couldn't choose what to say.

"Shut up!" Li Shimin's face turned purple, "I will investigate this matter." After finishing speaking, Li Shimin threw up his sleeves and left. With my understanding, Li Yin would not make such a stupid decision.

Looking at Li Shimin who left, a trace of hatred flashed in Concubine Yin's eyes. She had long been dissatisfied with Concubine Yang being taller than her, and naturally hated Brother Li Yin too. Li You was beaten like this by Li Yin, how could she Shinobu, "You'er, mother will definitely avenge you."

Ziyun Pavilion, Li Ke and Li Yin are all there, even Qinghe who has married into the Cheng family has also returned, Li Yin has caused too much trouble, and now the whole Chang'an city is full of gossip.

"Liulang, I told you not to be impulsive, but you just don't listen. If you find the evidence, you can just hand it over to your father. Why did you beat Li You like that?" Li Ke and several princes have met in the imperial hospital. Li You, that look is really miserable, there is not a piece of good meat in his whole body.

Qinghe has always defended his shortcomings, he said: "He deserves it, if Brother Six wasn't vigilant, it would be Brother Six who is lying in the Tai Hospital now, besides, what Li You suffered was only a skin trauma, what's the big deal, he pretended to be dying Like."

Yang Fei frowned and listened for a long time, then she glared at Qinghe, "No nonsense!". She looked at Li Yin and said, "Yin'er, you are too careless to do this. Although you and Ke'er both know that Li You did it, what evidence do you have to prove that Li You ordered it?"

"My son has already been investigated by someone. The guard who was injured by the arrow is called Liang Mengbiao, and the arrow in his hand is the crossbow of the palace. This kind of crossbow is only found in the son's mansion. You only need to compare it with it." Recognize it." Li Min said in a deep voice.

Concubine Yang shook her head, "Min'er, you're thinking too simply. Even if Liang Mengbiao was the one who burned down the mansion, it still doesn't mean that Li You ordered it. In so many struggles since ancient times, the dead ghost But it accounts for the vast majority." Concubine Yang grew up in the harem, and she has seen too many conspiracies and tricks in the harem, so she said.

Li Ke came to his senses, and said, "Mother, what you mean is that Li You will let that Liang Mengbiao be a scapegoat."

"Although Li You is brave and foolhardy, Master Yin is a complete old fox. When Emperor Gaozu killed the three clans of the Yin family, only the lineage of Master Yin was left behind. Do you think it's just that Gaozu took pity on him? Now In this situation, Yin Shishi will definitely let Li You kill him without knowing anything, saying that Liang Mengbiao acted on his own initiative, maybe he can use him to frame others."

Li Yin stood with his hands behind his back, which was why he taught Li You a lesson in advance. "Mother Concubine, it is precisely because I understand this that I have to personally teach Li You a lesson, otherwise, I would have been wronged in vain, Li You died of an insignificant subordinate, he can still be at ease, and I almost died. To whom will this be avenged?"

"But in this way, you will completely offend Li You and Concubine Yin, and now the aristocrats are quite critical of the political reform you carried out in Yizhou. If you won the battle in Songzhou and let them I'm a little afraid of you, they have already written a letter to impeach you, and now you are acting so recklessly, openly mobilizing the army to break into the camp and besiege King Qi's mansion, and beat Li You, isn't this an excuse for them?" Concubine Yang There was a sense of reprimand in his tone, and Li Yin did it entirely out of loyalty.

"Hey!" Li Ke also sighed. What Concubine Yang said was true. Although many officials were on Li Yin's side because of their business with Yizhou, there were not many of these officials who came from the aristocratic families. You can also see the attitude of these noble families towards Li Yin. Although they maintain superficial contacts with Yizhou, they criticize Li Yin's rectification in Yizhou a lot in private, because Li Yin is blatantly destroying the noble families. In particular, the three academies recruited students regardless of high or low, which allowed a large number of poor children to serve in the military and political system of Yizhou. .”

Li Yin doesn't regret his decision. It's a matter of time before he clashes with the nobles, and it doesn't depend on this moment, "Mother Concubine, Third Brother, don't worry, they can't do anything to me now." Li Yin comforted Dao, he is no longer the lonely and weak prince before, everyone must consider the strength behind him.

At the same time, Yin Hongzhi came to the cell where Liang Mengbiao was being held under the instructions of Concubine Yin and Shishi Yin.

"Yin Changshi, you have to hurry up." The prison chief shrank his head and looked outside vigilantly, while leading Yin Hongzhi into the cell. His job was obtained for him by a distant relative who was seeking Li Shimin has already ordered no one to visit him at will, but he has received the favor of the Yin family, so he can only take risks.

Yin Hongzhi took out four gold nuggets from his pocket and stuffed them into the hands of the prison chief, "Don't worry, it will only take a while."

"Okay, I'll let you out!" The prison chief looked at the exit again, and seeing that no one was there, he packed up the gold bars and went to the door to pretend to be patrolling.

Guards such as Liang Mengbiao and Zan Junmo were locked in the deepest cell. Yin Hongzhi looked at the ashen Liang Mengbiao and Zan Junmo with a cruel smile. He really wanted to thank Li Yin. He had always wanted to get rid of them. It was an opportunity that fell from the sky, and the two of them probably didn't think that their bad idea would cost them their lives.

"Yin Changshi?" When Yin Hongzhi lifted the cloak on his head, revealing a face covered with bruises and bruises, which was given by Li Yin's soldiers. Beside the wooden railing of the aisle, "Yin Changshi, you must save the little one?" At this time, he no longer had the previous domineering look.

Yin Hongzhi knew that time was running out, so he cut straight to the point, "No one can save you now, but the crime of setting fire to the hotel is enough to kill your head. It doesn't matter who ordered it, do you understand?"

Liang Mengbiao slowly let go of the wooden railing. He sat on the ground slumped, Zan Junmo's mouth froze, and Yin Hongzhi's words basically announced their death sentence.

"The difference now is that you insist that it is your own arbitrariness, and it has nothing to do with King Qi. In this way, your family's Prince Qi Palace will be responsible for supporting it. If you confess King Qi, then King Qi will at most be reprimanded, and your family members will be reprimanded." And die together!" Yin Hongzhi said coldly.

Liang Mengbiao and Zan Junmo were shocked when they heard the words, and they regretted at the same time looking at Yin Hongzhi's face. Why did they serve the powerful for the sake of glory and wealth?

"We understand!" Liang Mengbiao stood up as if exhausting all his strength, and walked slowly into the depths of the cell.

Yin Hongzhi emphasized again, "You must think clearly, and don't let your family members suffer like you." After that, Yin Hongzhi raised the corner of his mouth, and he believed that they would make a wise choice.

Li Yin besieged King Qi's residence, and the incident of beating King Qi completely changed the peaceful Chinese New Year atmosphere in Chang'an. Many ministers had to end their holidays early and start working. They hated Li Yin and Li You to death in their hearts. The seven-day holiday is gone.

"Hey, something like this happened right after the Great Court Meeting, the Fifth Prince and Sixth Prince are really making a fuss."

"Who says it's not, a good year, if you don't live a good life, you will lose the face of the royal family by beating and killing."

"The sixth and fifth princes have never been good friends. It is said that they fought over a firework woman before. Hey, I won't mention it..."

During the process of going to the Tai Chi Hall, the conversations of the courtiers were all about Li Yin and Li You. Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng walked together, listening to the discussions of the officials, and they also felt the same way, "Master Changsun , how do you think the emperor will handle this matter?"

"How to deal with it? With the character of the emperor, it is natural to calm things down. Didn't the fight between Li Ke and Han Wang Li Yuanchang go to court?" Changsun Wuji said casually.

Fang Xuanling laughed and said: "This is the emperor's housework, it's better for us people to not interfere."

"But this time it's different. Li You burned down the King of Shu's residence, and Li Min beat Li You. It is said that the King of Shu caught two assassins and was planning to assassinate him. This matter is serious." Wei Zheng thought for a while. Said.

"So what, isn't it normal for princes to fight each other? When we were in Prince Qin's mansion, the emperor also fought with Li Jiancheng, and even held a banquet at Kunming Lake to kill the emperor. This idea It was you Wei Zheng who sent it out, what can Emperor Gaozu do later, it's not just a reprimand and let it go." Fang Xuanling analyzed.

Old Wei Zheng blushed, "I said Mr. Fang Ge, can we forget about the past? Ten years have passed, and you still come to bury me Wei Zheng."

Seeing Wei Zheng like this, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling both laughed, Fang Xuanling hurriedly apologized, "It's me who is speechless, it's me who is speechless, old Wei Ge, don't blame him!"

Wei Zheng shook his head, suddenly remembered something and said: "However, Uncle Yin Guo has been very active these two days, visiting officials and powerful families everywhere, I don't know what he is going to do?"

Speaking of Uncle Yin and Master Yin, Changsun Wuji put away his smile. Now the only person in the court who can contend with him is Master Yin. Relying on Li Shimin's love for Concubine Yin, Master Yin is wooing everywhere. The officials fought against him in court, and Changsun Wuji had long been dissatisfied with his behavior.

Seeing the change in Changsun Wuji's expression, Fang Xuanling said: "Last night he also visited me, first he complained bitterly about Li Yin's misbehavior, and also said that Li Yin didn't pay attention to powerful families. Suppressing local wealthy families, and then praised Li You once more, saying that the emperor is eccentric, and he is also a prince who is away, Li Yin is a feudal prince, and Li You is still an ordinary prince."
