Chapter 15 The Tragic Xu Qidan
Liu Boying's eyes showed admiration.
As a Tang Dynasty boy, most of them are born with a sense of superiority that is the only one who is superior to others.
This made the Tubo polo team rub against the ground, and most people couldn't stand it. If they really lost that day, it would be a shame that they would never erase in their entire lives.
The joining of Li Yuanai, Li Zhi and Luo Tong helped them save their defeat, and with their excellent pass-through control technology, they saved a lot of face.
Liu Boying is already very fond of polo, and he admires Li Yuanai's football skills.
"This is……"
Li Yuanai pointed to Xu Qidan, who was criticizing him, and asked.
This person is familiar and easy to do things.
Liu Boying replied without hesitation: "It is him that makes us unable to rest in the hot weather. I don't know what he stole the prince, which made the prince furious and implicated our brothers in the twelve guards."
Li Yuanai glanced at Xu Qidan and said, "Looking at Wenwen is quiet, he doesn't look like a thief."
Xu Qidan shouted: "Your Highness, you are really wronged. I am a prince and I have a favored sister serving His Majesty. The future is bright, how can I do theft..."
"Shut up!" Liu Boying roared.
Li Yuanai said, "But Xu Hui, Xu Chongrong?"
In recent years, he has been walking in the Lizheng Hall for a long time and has also known about Li Shimin's harem.
Li Shimin's four concubines are Concubine Wei, Concubine Yinde, Concubine Yang Shu and Concubine Zheng Xian, but these four concubines are almost not liked by Li Shimin, and the four of them are all criminals.
Concubine Wei was once the concubine of Li Min, the son of Li Zixiong, the Minister of Revenue of the Ministry of Revenue. Li Zixiong followed Yang Xuangan to rebel. After the defeat, the father and son were both killed. Wei was a family member of the criminal and was charged into the palace as a palace maid.
Concubine Yin De was the daughter of Yin Shishi Master. In her early years, she became enemies with the Li family in Taiyuan and killed Li Shimin's younger brother Li Zhiyun.
Concubine Yang Shu was Yang Su's granddaughter and Yang Xuanzhao's daughter. After Yang Xuangan raised an army at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Xuanzhao wanted to respond but was killed by the county magistrate first. Yang was detained in the palace as a family member of the rebellion case and was used as a palace maid.
The same is true for Concubine Zheng Xian.
All the four concubines were assigned to the Qin Palace as concubines for Li Shimin as guilty.
Because the four concubines have low status, Li Shimin publicly complained to Wei Zheng, "In the Han Dynasty, those who were often selected in Luoyang in August would return their children to the harem to return to the harem. This is not a law. However, there were many entrusted men in the palace today, which made them give birth to the kings, which was right and wrong. Based on this, the selection of palaces should be based on etiquette."
It is openly discussed that the Han Dynasty often chooses some outstanding women from good families to enter the harem to serve as concubines in August every year. This method should not have been an object of imitation, but nine out of ten of my harems were from the Yeting Palace, and they were all sluts. Is it appropriate to let them give birth to princes?
It was at this time that Xu Hui was selected into the palace.
Xu Hui was able to speak in May, and read "The Analects of Confucius" and "The Song of Mao" at the age of four. He was able to write essays and poems at the age of eight. He was a talented woman who was famous for a while.
What's more important is that Xu Hui's eyes look like Empress Changsun, and she also has a little bit of intellectual temperament similar to Empress Changsun. It can be said that after Empress Changsun went, Xu Hui was the only woman who could truly be called Li Shimin's favor.
This time Li Shimin moved into Bashui Villa, and only Xu Hui was brought by the concubines.
Xu Qidan said: "It's my sister."
Li Yuanai looked at Liu Boying: "As a rule, there is no need to destroy his future."
Liu Boying said: "This is not within the scope of his duties. The last general is just following the order. However, when he was arrested, he was drinking with his friends in a restaurant, but nothing unusual. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not get angry for no reason."
Li Yuanai said: "It is convenient for me to say a few words to him?"
Liu Boying hesitated and said, "Yes, just a few words, it's not a big deal, but the person was sent to the Eastern Palace and handed over to the prince to deal with it. I hope the King of Shang will not make things difficult for him."
"Okay, just a few words!" Li Yuanai hugged her fists.
Liu Boying waved his hand and more than a hundred soldiers formed a large circle, surrounding Li Yuanai and Xu Qidan.
Xu Qidan blushed his eyes and said pitifully: "Your Highness, I am really wronged."
Li Yuanai asked softly: "Is there anything unusual about you coming out of the East Palace today?"
Xu Qidan shook his head and said, "Today, the prince did not attend classes on the grounds of being busy with official duties. I read a book in the study for a while and then left the palace. It was Helan Chushi who sent me out of the palace. Your Highness can go and find him. I have no choice but to steal anything."
"Helan Chu Shi? Is Hou Junji's son-in-law?" Li Yuanai asked. He had a little impression of this person, and he was also a gambler. However, compared with the gambler before, it was much better.
"Yes!" Xu Qidan said: "The guards of the East Palace have been a little strict recently. People are watching me when I go in and out. Where can I steal any treasures..."
Li Yuanai nodded and said, "I understand, you are just an excuse. I'll see if I can bail you out..." He said, thanked Liu Boying and left directly from the Suzaku Gate.
Before, he just suspected that he was only 60% to 70%, but now he is at least 90%.
Li Yuanai always thought that Xu Qidan had obtained something from eavesdropping. Now when he met, he realized that Xu Qidan really knew nothing.
If he really knew something, Li Chengqian and Hou Junji would not be able to let him speak, and Xu Qidan would not keep calling him wronged.
This life is at stake. When you can speak, what reason does Xu Qidan have not tried his best to tell the truth?
All signs indicate that Xu Qidan knows nothing about the current situation.
The so-called stealing is also a false situation. With Xu Qidan's conditions, there is no reason to steal. The key is that the Eastern Palace is in the inner garden. People with the identity of Xu Qidan need to be searched for their connections. It is almost impossible to steal a treasure that Li Chengqian immediately discovered and was so furious.
Li Chengqian was most likely to use this as a reason to torture the 11th guards so that they could fight against the journey of fatigue by relying on the replenishment of energy.
In fact, he missed it. Hou Junji beat two birds with one stone, and the main reason was to force Li Chengqian to rebel. Without a flag, it would be impossible to succeed with just one man and one army. Weakening the city defense is just to follow the trend.
Li Yuanai knew that there was not much time, and today the East Palace made such a big noise, it must be the time to act at night.
After looking at the sky, it was about two more hours left.
Two hours were enough to notify Li Shimin to evacuate Bashui Villa.
As long as I can protect my second brother from being safe, no matter how big the rebellion is, it will be useless.
