Chapter 217 Li Chengqian’s Transformation
Honglu Temple.

Zhabu found Lu Dongzan in a panic.

“It’s not good.”

“I just got the news that the people from the Dali Temple want to execute Mu Chi and the others!”

“how come?”

Lu Dongzan’s face changed instantly.

With Li Tai’s relationship, he would definitely work hard on this matter. Why were Mu Chi and others sentenced to death?
Zhabu: “They blamed Mu Chi and his gang for the death of the Jiangnan cloth merchant!”

Lu Dongzan paced back and forth with a serious look on his face.

In this case, they have made up their minds to kill Mu Chi and others!

“What did the King of Wei say?”

“When the King of Wei pleaded for Mu Chi and others, he was rejected by other officials. Even if our Tubo made a move at the border, the prince would still severely punish Mu Chi and others.”

Damn!

Lu Dongzan clenched his fists. They and the King of Wei did this together, but now only Mu Chi and others died?
At this time, a guard walked in quickly, “Prime Minister, Du Chuke wants to see you.”

Lu Dongzan turned around abruptly, “Call him in!”

Du Chuke strode in.

Lu Dongzan immediately shouted, “What do you mean? Didn’t we agree on this when we were working together? Why are Mu Chi and his men now imprisoned and being sent to the execution platform?”

Du Chuke sighed, “Calm down, Prime Minister. This is not what the prince intended.”

“When the prince pleaded for Mu Chi and others, the King of Qi interfered, and many officials seconded the proposal, so the prince had no choice.”

Lu Dongzan: “Are we going to let Mu Chi and the others die in vain?”

Du Chuke: “That’s why I came here.”

“The reason they dared to kill Mu Chi and the others was simply to give everyone an explanation. If the Tibetan army made any moves at the border, I believe the prince would never do it!”

Lu Dongzan frowned. This meant that he wanted them to send a message back, asking the soldiers at the border to put pressure on the Tang Dynasty, or even to provoke a war between the two countries again.

Du Chuke: “Your Majesty is not in Chang’an now, so all matters are left to the Crown Prince. Once the Tibetan army arrives at the city, the Crown Prince will surely be panicked and at a loss.”

“By then, with just a little effort, Mu Chi and the others will surely be able to escape unscathed.”

Lu Dongzan sneered, “By then, you can get out of the Wei Palace!”

Du Chuke smiled awkwardly.

Doing so would indeed create a chance to rescue Mu Chi and others, but at the same time, the matter would then become a matter between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo.

The King of Wei could then withdraw from this matter calmly.

Lu Dongzan said coldly: “Mu Chi is helping you. If you are unwilling to help, aren’t you afraid that Mu Chi will expose all of you?”

“This……”

Du Chuke sighed, “We are allies. Why must the Prime Minister do this, making our loved ones sad and our enemies happy?”

Lu Dongzan waved his hand, “Is the King of Wei really unwilling to help?”

Du Chuke bowed deeply and said helplessly: “It’s not that the prince is unwilling to help, but he is powerless.”

Lu Dongzan gave Du Chuke a cold look and said, “If that’s the case, then get out of here.”

Du Chuke raised his eyebrows, said goodbye, and turned to leave.

Zhabu looked over and said, “Prime Minister, Mu Chi and the others…”

“It’s hard to save.”

Lu Dongzan sighed and said slowly: “Order someone to report this matter back to Tubo as soon as possible.”

……

Prince Qi’s Mansion.

Li You smiled and told Yan Hongxin what happened in the court today.

Yan Hongxin bowed and said, “Your Highness is wise. Mu Chi and the others are all helpers of the King of Wei. Now that Mu Chi and the others are doomed, Lu Dongzan must be furious. Mu Chi and the others will not help the King of Wei to keep this news secret!”

Li You nodded and said, “If Mu Chi and others give up the King of Wei before they die, then this will be fun.”

When a person is about to die, his words are also good.

What’s more, Mu Chi was a Tibetan. How much relationship could he have with Li Tai?
It’s nothing more than cooperation!
Now that Li Tai did not come to the rescue, would Mu Chi and others still help Li Tai keep the secret when they knew they were going to die?
Definitely not!

Once Mu Chi and others expose the King of Wei, the court will surely be very exciting.

“By the way, how is the situation with Taoist Qian?”

“Please rest assured, Your Majesty. We have already arranged for him to be released secretly. He is in Wannian County.”

Yan Hongxin was full of confidence. “With Liang Mengbiao and some people watching over there, there will definitely be no problem.”

Taoist Qian is a talented person.

With him in hand, I believe it won’t be long before he has a large amount of explosives.

By the time……

What does it mean that someone has a bad character and can never achieve anything? What does it mean that someone only knows how to hunt and doesn’t understand people’s livelihood?
Why do you need me to take a fancy to you?
“Be very careful about this matter.”

Li Youzaidu reminded him, “Li Tai ended up in this situation because he was too careless.”

Yan Hongxin: “I understand!”

……

Prince’s residence.

Sun Qiang brought news about the handling of the explosion case.

All nine men including Mu Chi were executed.

For many ordinary people, this is not a big deal, just a topic of conversation after dinner, but it is different for Su Chen.

“It seems that the ministers in the court are full of martial virtues.”

Su Chen smiled with emotion.

Knowing that the Tibetan army was causing trouble at the border, they still decided to kill Mu Chi and his nine men without hesitation.

This is enough to explain the problem.

Perhaps, this is also to cover up the affairs of King Wei?
Su Chen touched his chin and asked, “Is there any news from Wang Xuance?”

Sun Qiang shook his head. “They have been keeping an eye on Prince Qi’s mansion. If there is any news, it should be delivered soon.”

According to their inference, the people and goods of Shangzhou have most likely fallen into Li You’s hands.

But whether it is true or not still needs careful verification.

Sun Qiang: “But Wei Ting did show up recently.”

Su Chen looked up, and Sun Qiang continued, “Perhaps it was because of Wei Xingzong’s matter. He met with several princes from the Sixth House these days. I don’t know what he is doing.”

There are more than a dozen factions of the Wei family, nine of which are known as the “Nine Branches of the Wei Family”.

Wei Ting is the ninth of the nine royal houses of the Wei family, the Jingzhao Wei, and the prince consort’s royal house is ranked sixth.

Among them, Wei Sian was the representative figure, and he married Princess Jin’an.

Su Chen tapped his folding fan and said, “Interesting, has Wei Ting finally come to terms with it?”

Sun Qiang glanced at him and whispered, “If it weren’t for you, he would still be depressed in the mansion, right?”

Su Chen: “……?” “Is it my fault?”

Sun Qiang chuckled and didn’t answer.

The death of Wei Daijia caused Wei Ting to become depressed and he stayed indoors.

Wei Xingzong, however, joined forces with King Wei. His purpose was self-evident. Naturally, he wanted to help his elder brother Wei Daijia to take revenge.

Their arrangements were very good and their plans were very thorough, but they never expected that Su Chen not only had a bomb, but also knew how to make explosives.

This made their plan go down the drain and got themselves involved instead.

Although Wei Xingzong has been released now, he almost lost another son, which is enough to cheer up Wei Ting.

If he continued to allow the younger generation to misbehave, he would probably have to witness his sons die one after another.

“Ignore Wei Ting for now and focus on the King of Qi first.”

Eat rice one bite at a time and eliminate people one by one!

The King of Qi has jumped out now. He must be taught a lesson before he behaves himself!
As for Wei Ting, although the Wei family is wealthy and powerful, with extensive connections, even in the harem, so what?
Let those concubines of the Wei family whisper in Li Shimin’s ear?

Li Shimin will definitely be the first one to deal with them!
“Hey hey hey!”

At this moment, a burst of laughter came from outside.

Su Chen and the other two looked over and saw Li Chengqian walking in from outside with high spirits.

“The prince looks radiant today. He must have encountered some happy event. Congratulations, His Royal Highness.”

“Hehe, after following Su Chen for a long time, his words have become more pleasant.”

Li Chengqian glanced at Sun Qiang with a smile and threw a golden bean over to him.

“Thank you for the reward, Prince.”

Sun Qiang grinned and thanked him.

Li Chengqian waved his hand, but heard Su Chen say coldly: “It’s still my money.”

Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and took out an imperial edict from his sleeve, “Guess what this is.”

“What reward did His Majesty give you?”

“Half right.”

Li Chengqian smiled mysteriously, “It is indeed a reward, but it is not for me.”

“I?”

Su Chen raised his eyebrows, “Not very realistic, right?”

Li Chengqian smiled and placed the imperial edict in front of Su Chen, “It’s really for you. I praise you for your meritorious service in treating Li Zhi this time and give you a title.”

“What’s the name?”

Sun Qiang came over curiously.

Su Chen opened it and laughed out loud, “Good fellow, a royal merchant, you have made contributions to the country, your father really knows how to reward you.”

Li Chengqian: “It’s better than nothing.”

Su Chen shrugged and threw the imperial edict aside. “Tell me, what is the reason for you to come to me this time?”

“Muchi!”

Li Chengqian’s face straightened, “After discussion, we will execute the nine people of Mu Chi in seven days.”

“The reason why it was set to seven days later is to let Mu Chi and the others speak up and see if they can give Li Tai away.”

Su Chen nodded to show his understanding, “I will definitely confess it.”

“Unless someone takes action first, let them commit suicide out of fear of the crime.”

“Not very realistic.”

Li Chengqian smiled and waved his hands, “The Dali Temple is heavily guarded, who has the ability to do this…”

“Uh.”

Li Chengqian frowned and looked at Su Chen, “If that’s the case, this would be the second time!”

Su Chen smiled and said nothing.

Li Chengqian frowned and thought for a while, “I’m going to kill them!”

“what?”

Su Chen was stunned and looked at Li Chengqian in astonishment.

Li Chengqian was very calm, “I am the crown prince, the eldest brother. Facing a useless younger brother, of course I have to take care of him.”

Su Chen raised his hand strangely and touched Li Chengqian’s forehead.

Li Chengqian: “What are you doing?”

Su Chen: “You don’t have a fever! What nonsense are you talking about?”

Li Chengqian smiled calmly, “Su Chen, is this how you see me?”

“otherwise?”

“Now, I am the regent prince, in charge of all court affairs.”

Li Chengqian stood up slowly, and his words were inexplicably more calm and confident. “The Tang Dynasty has 11 provinces, and all the affairs of various states, big and small, are all on my shoulders. I just realized the difficulty of sitting in that position.”

“Secondly.”

“Li Tai and Li You are nothing but clowns.”

“As a prince, how can I be on the same level as them?”

Not right.

Something is wrong!
Su Chen shook his head repeatedly, “You must have taken the wrong medicine today!”

Li Chengqian waved his hand calmly, “No, you are wrong. I didn’t take the wrong medicine. It’s you who gave me such strong confidence.”

Su Chen suddenly realized.

No wonder Li Chengqian was becoming more and more like an emperor, not because he had understood his position.

But it’s because he has the strength to recreate the Xuanwu Gate incident!
The throne is at your fingertips.

Turning around and looking at Li Tai and Li You who were like clowns, a feeling of superiority suddenly arose in his mind.

I already hold the throne, why should I fight with you?
It is better to be generous and show good things to all the civil and military officials in the court that I am not just kind to my younger brothers and sisters, princes and princesses, but I also treat these two younger brothers who aspire to seize the throne equally!
“of course.”

“I am the prince, I can indulge them once and let them go twice!”

“But if they still don’t know what’s good for them, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Pop, pop, pop.

Su Chen clapped his hands and laughed, “Should I congratulate His Majesty in advance?”

Li Chengqian waved his hand, “I allow you to see me without bowing.”

“Virtue!”

“Hahaha……”
