As for killing Princess Taiping, haha.

Compared with imperial power, what is a mere princess?

The most ruthless imperial family, it is common for brothers and sons to kill each other, let alone kill a daughter?

Because the Emperor knew very well that only by using General Pei to kill Princess Taiping can he anger the queen to the greatest extent, and the queen can make a wrong decision in anger.

Only in this way can we provoke a war between the Queen of Heaven and Pei.

The Tang Dynasty was never the Tang Dynasty of the Li family, but the Tang Dynasty of the Guanlong clan.

During the reign of Emperor Gaozu, there were the Tang Dynasty of the old aristocratic tribes such as Pei, Du, and Wei. During the reign of Emperor Taizong, there were the Tang Dynasty of the new aristocratic tribes such as Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, and Zhang Gongjin. Then, their old aristocratic tribes joined forces with the Queen of Heaven to overthrow the new aristocratic tribes, but now, are they going to go through a new round of power reshuffle?

Once the Queen of Heaven and the Pei family starts a war, other old aristocratic families, such as the Xue family, Du family, Wei family, and Liu family, must follow the team, or join the Queen of Heaven or the Pei family's camp.

Of course, there is a third possibility, which is to join the Emperor's camp.

But no matter which result is, the queen camp will collapse.

In this way, the Tang Dynasty's political responsibilities will likely be back to the emperor's control.

Thinking of this, Wei Chengqing and Liu Sili were basically sure that the Emperor was the real mastermind.

Di Renjie actually knew it equally, but he still refused to accept such assumptions.

Di Renjie said: "This matter ends here, Pei Sicheng should mention it again!"

"If this happens, the officials are helpless." Pei Shaoqing sneered and said, "Then let's present this case to the Holy Emperor of the Emperor as Censor Liu and Mr. Wei said before."

"What is the sacrifice of a general in order not to violate the law of a minister?"

"What is the point of sacrificing hundreds of thousands of soldiers to avoid demonstrating the evil of the king?"

"Even if the Turks rebel, what's the point of taking over our 9,000-mile territory in the Tang Dynasty?"

"Even if the war in the northern border is connected, the Tang Dynasty will suffer, what's the pity?"

"Di Sizheng, I really misjudged you. I didn't expect you to be like this Di Renjie!"

"This..." Di Renjie was speechless. Pei Shaoqing's words were like sharp arrows, shooting through his conscience. Do you really want to put the Tang Dynasty into war in order to keep the way of his ministers?

"Pei Sicheng, no, absolutely not!"

At this time, Wei Chengqing and Liu Sili did not advocate the presentation of the Emperor's Holy Tribunal.

The reason is also very simple. Once the case is presented to the Queen of Heaven, the result will be obvious. The alliance between Queen of Heaven and the old Guanlong clan will definitely collapse, and the Wei family and Liu family will also be forced to take sides.

If the team is right, it’s nothing, if the team is wrong, it’s over.

Therefore, neither Wei Chengqing nor Liu Sili want to break the status quo.

If you don’t enjoy the ready-made wealth and honor, you have to use your family’s future to gamble. Are you a fool?

Wei Chengqing said righteously and righteously: "Although we are ministers, we must not ignore the evil of the king because of our foolish loyalty. Moreover, the queen has issued a clear order. Anyone involved in this case must be investigated to the end! Therefore, we do not have to have any concerns at all, and we must investigate this case to the end!"

Liu Sili also said with a sigh: "Mencius said that the people are the most important, and the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important. This case involves the safety of the country and the welfare of hundreds of millions of people. How can we ignore the truth just because of the saying "Minist does not show the evil of the king"? What is our integrity in this way? What is the conscience?"

Pei Shaoqing turned his eyes to Di Renjie and asked, "Di Sizheng?"

Di Renjie sighed and said, "But this is just speculation after all, isn't it?"

Pei Shaoqing said: "As long as Shi Zheng Di does not object, we will be careful to verify it next."

"Pei Sicheng is right, just be careful to verify." Wei Chengqing said repeatedly, "Be careful to verify."

Pei Shaoqing continued: "In this case, such as Ah Ximudu, Heifu, Qin Zhen, and even other guards, they are just tools or chess pieces."

“There are only three real key figures.”

"One is Wang Desheng, who is already dead."

"The other one is Pei Qi, this one cannot be touched easily."

"The last one is Lee Daoen, but he is missing."

"Yes." Liu Sili nodded and said, "I wish I could find Li Daoen."

Pei Shaoqing said: "We were not sure who was behind the scenes before, so we couldn't find Li Daoen, but if the person behind the scenes was the emperor, it wouldn't be that difficult to find Li Daoen."

"What does it mean?" Wei Chengqing asked, "Why didn't I understand?"

Pei Shaoqing said again: "Mr. Wei, have you heard of the saying that darkness under the lamp?"

"It's not just heard of it, but also experienced it myself." Wei Chengqing said, "Once I looked for a brush in the study room, and I searched through every corner but couldn't find it, but in the end I found it was in my hand."

Pei Shaoqing asked Di Renjie again, "Di Si is the main character, has Wuhou searched the mountains?"

"Searched." Di Renjie said, "Even the deep mountains and old forests in Zhongnan Mountains."

"That's strange." Pei Shaoqing said with a smile, "Li Daoen was able to kill all the soldiers of the Right Guard under his command to silence him, which shows that he was not alone, but also had helpers, and there were a large number of them."

"So many people really want to enter the deep mountains and forests, it is impossible not to leave any traces."

"This is exactly what is puzzling," Di Renjie said, "but there is no trace in Zhongnan Mountain. Not only in Zhongnan Mountain, but also in Chang'an, there is no discovery in hundreds of miles."

Wei Chengqing said: "Will they sneak back to Chang'an?"

"It's impossible!" Di Renjie said, "The Chang'an gates are guarded by the left and right guards. Because the left and right guards are plotted against Yang Xiaoyi and more than a hundred cavalry under their command, Li Daoen is already like a foe on the left and right guards. If Li Daoen dares to sneak back to Chang'an, they will definitely be captured, so they cannot sneak back to Chang'an."

Wei Chengqing said: "Xi Neiyuan and Dong Neiyuan are not guarded by left and right guards."

Di Renjie said: "It is even more impossible for the Northern Imperial Army to let Li Daoen enter the Great Inner."

"That's strange." Liu Sili said, "Can Li Daoen really hide in the sky?"

"It is impossible to hide in the sky." Pei Shaoqing smiled slightly and then said, "But there is a place that Wu Hou and Zuo Xiaowei must have never searched."

"Where?" Wei Chengqing said.

"Cuiwei Palace." Pei Shaoqing said in a deep voice.

"Cuiwei Palace?" Di Renjie frowned.

Because Pei Shaoqing was right, Wuhou and Zuo Xiaowei searched for even the Lishan Palace, but Cuiwei Palace did not search, and the reason was very simple.

Zuo Xiaowei had just captured Cui Jiu and more than a dozen guards from Cuiwei Palace to capture the man.

So they didn't think that Li Daoen would hide in Cuiwei Palace.

Pei Shaoqing smiled slightly and said, "Di Si is the most dangerous place, sometimes the safest place."

"The safest place is the safest?" Di Renjie was slightly moved. This sounded very reasonable.

Pei Shaoqing said: "It's not too late. Di Sizheng, let's take people to Cuiwei Palace to arrest Li Daoen. As long as you take Li Daoen, all questions will be solved."
