Next, I am afraid that the battle between the East Palace and the Furong Garden will be more intense.
As for yourself?
When Li Qiu was just a small merchant and courtier, he dared to show his teeth to the East Palace for Li Qiu.
Now, do you still have to ask?
I have to help my brother win the crown prince!
We are the eldest sons of the direct relatives, and the position of the crown prince should belong to us!
Chapter 1026 Protect Li Qiu's safety no matter what
Just when Liu Jie was anxiously rushing to Zhongshu Province.
At the moment, there are the texts of Zhongshu Lingcen in Zhongshu Province, Wei Ting, the servant of Zhongshu, Gao Jifu from Zhongshushe, and others.
It is also in a state of complete bewilderment.
For Wei Ting and Gao Jifu who were too familiar with Li Qiu.
No one could have imagined how Li Qiu would suddenly change and become the eldest son of the Tang Dynasty? !
As for Cen Wenwen, even though he was as steady as him, his thoughts were in a mess at the moment.
Today's imperial decree concerns Li Qiu's status as the eldest son.
Just like a flying fairy from outside the sky, appearing so abruptly in front of your eyes.
All his plans were disrupted.
All planning!
So much so that now, even he doesn't know how to make the next move.
Until he forcibly calmed down.
Cen Wenwen also hurriedly got up and went into the palace.
As for Wei Ting, it was also after a few sentences with Gao Jifu.
Trotted all the way, went straight to the official department.
I found Wang Gui, who still couldn't see the imperial decree.
Seeing him like this, Wang Gui, who could clearly see his old age, was quite energetic and greeted him warmly with a smile.
"Wei Ting, how old are we now?"
"How can you be so flustered?"
"Come on, sit down, I just made a pot of excellent tea."
"Come and try it too."
At this moment, Wei Ting, how could he be in the mood to drink tea?
He didn't even intend to sit down, so he just stood up and lowered his voice, and said anxiously, "Wang Gui, now is not the time for you to drink tea!"
"I just received the imperial decree from the palace this morning."
"Li Qiu's identity is actually the eldest son of the Great Tang Dynasty!"
"The biological son of His Majesty and Empress, and the elder brother of His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Could it be that Wei Zheng didn't come to you or send you a message after such a big thing happened?"
Listening to Wei Ting's continuous narration, Wang Gui's hand that was pouring tea into the cup seemed to be frozen there.
Let the steaming tea overflow on the table, as if not aware of it.
It was not until a while later that Wang Gui let out a long breath and looked straight at Wei Ting.
"I just learned about this."
"I haven't seen Wei Zheng either."
"Wei Ting, did you really mean what you said just now?"
Wei Ting slapped his thigh anxiously at this time, "Who dares to talk nonsense about such a big thing?!"
"I believe that the imperial decree will reach you soon."
"Now, Cen Wenwen has rushed to the palace."
"As for Wei Zheng, he must have committed another stubbornness and ran straight into the palace."
At this moment, Wang Gui suddenly grabbed Wei Ting's wrist.
So much so that Wei Ting was secretly startled, how could Wang Gui in such a physical condition show so much strength.
Then, before he could say anything, Wang Gui stared at him directly, lowered his voice, and told him anxiously in a way almost roaring.
"Wei Ting!"
"Listen to me carefully now."
"Call Feng Li immediately, and then go to Li Qiu."
"You only need to do one thing now, and that is to protect Li Qiu's life no matter what."
"If you can stay in Furong Garden, you must not stay in Chang'an City."
"As for me, I stayed and watched carefully the changes in the situation in the DPRK."
"Once there is any trouble, I can inform you in time."
"In short, no matter what, Li Qiu must not be ill!"
"I think back then, we had already made a mistake during the Xuanwumen Incident."
"Now, we must not repeat the same mistakes!"
Hearing Wang Gui's words, Wei Ting's eyes flashed full of surprise and disbelief.
"Wang Gui, do you mean to say?"
"Li Qiu... the East Palace?"
At this time, Wang Gui took a deep breath and stared at him with a serious and extremely serious gaze.
Then nodded.
Seeing this, Wei Ting did not dare to have any hesitation.
Immediately turned around and slammed the door out.
At this moment, all the bloody and shouting scenes that happened that night flashed across his mind.
He will never forget the pain that night at the Xuanwu Gate in his life.
At this moment, just like what Wang Gui said, if he repeats the same mistakes again, then he won't have to live!
……
When this moment happened, it was far away in the Prince's East Palace.
Dai Zhou had already led the people from Dali Temple and the forbidden army to confront Li Chengqian, Du Zhenglun and others.
"His Royal Highness, the ministers are also acting according to His Majesty's will."
"Please ask those involved in the theft of the Jade Buddha to return to Dali Temple for interrogation."
"If nothing happens, they will naturally be sent back."
"Your Highness, please don't embarrass the ministers."
Looking at standing in front of him, although he bowed his head slightly, his attitude was humble.
But there is an upright and uncompromising Dai Zhou in his bones, and Li Chengqian's anger is getting bigger and bigger at the moment.
"Lord Dai, if I remember correctly, you have already opposed me several times, right?"
"Hmph, people say that you Dai Zhou was born in a legal family, that the law is greater than reason, and you don't rub the sand in your eyes."
"But you have been doing things for that Beiping king Li Qiu secretly, and you are always against my East Palace!"
"Today, I want to see it, but I just won't let you take people."
"How dare you do it?!"
Hearing Li Chengqian's scolding, Dai Zhou was also bearing the tremendous pressure.
After taking two deep breaths, he also said loudly: "If His Royal Highness insists on doing this, then I can only offend you."
After finishing speaking, he shouted loudly behind him, "Please, Your Majesty's decree!"
With Dai Zhou's cry, the people behind him also immediately asked for the imperial edict.
Those officials and the forbidden army were also under pressure, full of breath, and eager to try.
Obviously, if the crown prince Li Chengqian did not let him go, they could only force him.
Seeing their posture, all the courtiers and guards of the Eastern Palace were furious on the spot.
"You guys are so cowardly after eating the bear's heart and leopard, how dare you do whatever you want in the East Palace?!"
"Do you still want your heads?!"
Seeing that the situation on both sides is getting more and more tense.
Kong Yingda, who has always had a good personal relationship with Dai Zhou, hurriedly took a step forward and walked up to Dai Zhou.
Whispered anxiously.
Said Mr. Dai, are you crazy?
That's His Royal Highness, you openly did this with His Royal Highness just because of some important business matters.
How will you, your descendants, and your family deal with yourself in the future?
Just when Kong Yingda was persuading Dai Zhou, Du Zhenglun quietly walked up to Li Chengqian.
Whispered a few words.
Speaking of Dai Zhou, he is notoriously reticent and very rigid.
After all, they now have His Majesty's sacred decree, if they continue to block them like this.
It is always unfavorable for His Majesty to hear it.
Moreover, those few people who were unreliable have already been dealt with by Hanwang.
The remaining few will not speak no matter what, even if they are taken away, there is no need to worry about anything.
On the contrary, it can avoid suspicion.
Chapter 1027
Hearing Du Zhenglun's persuasion, Li Chengqian snorted softly.
Relax a little bit.
Then, under Li Chengqian's silence and acquiescence.
The officials of Dali Temple brought by Dai Zhou started to act in a very low-key manner.
Search and apprehend suspects involved in the case.
During the whole process, Dai Zhou had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand in front of the prince and everyone in the East Palace.
The gaze is also as far as possible not to meet it.
At this time, this pot, this big burden, can only be taken care of by Dai Zhou.
If he retreated first, the case would be completely useless.
He wears a helmet, no matter what, he has his own children, his own family, and a master.
How could this kind of pressure, which is almost a death feud with the prince, be insignificant?
In less than a stick of incense, Dali Temple finally finished taking people.
At this time, Dai Zhou finally let out a long sigh in his heart.
