In desperation, no one has any good solutions. If one person proposes a method, others will immediately point out the disadvantages of this method, and the debate continues endlessly.

Li Jianben was upset because Liang Shitai witnessed him killing Li Shimin. Now he saw that his group of civil servants and generals were arguing with each other but still couldn't think of a reliable solution. He was even more angry.

Suddenly he thought of Ren Zheng. After all, it was Ren Zheng who came up with the method of assassinating Li Shimin. Moreover, after such a long period of contact, Li Jiancheng fully understood that Ren Zheng's talent and strategy were beyond the reach of his confidants.

So he hurriedly looked for Ren Zheng in the crowd. At this time, he was desperate and had pinned all his hopes on Ren Zheng.

However, Li Jiancheng looked around and found no figure of Ren Zheng, so he frowned and asked everyone:"Has any of you seen Mr. Ren Zheng? Why hasn't he come yet?"

At this time, everyone realized that someone was missing and was about to send someone. When someone went to look for him, Wei Zheng walked in leisurely with his hands behind his back.

After all, Li Jiancheng escaped back to the palace first, and he dealt with Liang Shitai for a while, killed him, and then checked whether there were others alive, so he was naturally much later than Li Jiancheng.

Although he already knew the story of the Book of Songs, he still pretended to know nothing, frowned and asked:"Didn't His Highness lead people to ambush King Qin? What happened to be so anxious?" After he finished speaking, Then he looked at Wang Gui, Feng Li and others, frowned and asked:"What happened? Why are you arguing so fiercely?"

Li Jiancheng had long regarded Wei Zheng as the last straw, and he didn't know the situation when he saw him. , and hurriedly told the complete story from killing Li Shimin to being discovered by Liang Shitai.

After hearing this, Wei Zheng pretended to be distressed and sighed:"How could His Highness be so careless, and how could Liang Shitai find His Highness so quickly?" After hearing Wei Zheng's words,

Li Jiancheng said with a wry smile:"Originally, that There is no one in the alley. I have already killed Li Shimin, and while I was checking the survivors, Liang Shitai suddenly appeared.

It is useless to say this. What should I do next? Please teach me, Mr. Ren!"

Wei Zheng lowered his head deliberately. Pretending to be thinking about countermeasures, Li Jiancheng waited until Li Jiancheng had already turned around twice in a hurry like an ant on a hot pot, and then he said,"It seems to me that your Highness has only two ways to go now."

Li Jiancheng originally saw that he was alone His confidants argued here for a long time, but failed to come up with a feasible plan. Ren Zheng, who had high hopes for him, also thought about it for a long time without saying anything, thinking that there was no hope.

However, when he was in despair, he came up with two ways without opening a word. He asked with great joy:"Sir, please tell me, which two ways are they?"

At this time, Liang Shitai had been sued by Wei Zheng, and other people present Except for Li Jian, everyone is dead, which means that there is no evidence of Li Shimin's death. No one has evidence to prove that Li Jiancheng killed him.

However, Li Jiancheng had already escaped before Wei Zheng appeared. He had no idea that Liang Shitai was dead and that he was very safe, so he was still very anxious to know what he should do.

Wei Zheng slowly moved his finger deeply and said to Li Jiancheng:"The first way is to ask His Highness to stay in the East Palace honestly and pray that His Majesty can let His Highness go for the sake of the Tang Dynasty.."

Li Jiancheng originally had great expectations for Wei Zheng, thinking that the method he mentioned must be very feasible, but he did not expect that the first way would be to sit still and wait for death.

Not only was Li Jiancheng extremely disappointed, but even Wang Gui, Feng Li and others shook their heads after hearing this.

So before Li Jiancheng could speak, Wang Gui said on Li Jiancheng's behalf:"Mr. Ren, we are waiting for you to find a way. We are not asking you to make sarcastic remarks here.

You are not calling this the first road. You are clearly asking His Highness the Crown Prince. Just sit back and wait for His Majesty to issue an edict to depose or directly execute His Highness. In this case, you will not be able to escape the involvement. You instigated His Highness to assassinate King Qin. Now that the matter has been exposed, you still have such an attitude. If it were your second The road is still like this, so there is no need to wait for His Majesty to issue an edict, I will send you to see the King of Hell first!"

Wei Zheng listened to Wang Gui's words and sneered in his heart, but did not express it on his face. Seeing that Li Jiancheng did not speak, he continued Said:"The second way may be a bit radical, but it is definitely more effective than the first way, and it will work once and for all." After hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up and he motioned for him to continue.

So Wei Zheng said word for word:"The second way is to ask His Majesty to not stop doing anything. Before His Majesty finds out and Liang Shitai has not found the Emperor, he leads an army into the palace and forces His Majesty to abdicate.

No matter what, Your Majesty Whether it is fighting for the position of the crown prince or assassinating the King of Qin, it is all about the position of the emperor. As long as His Highness ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, holds the military power and completely controls the Tang Dynasty, even if His Majesty and officials know the truth, there will be nothing they can do to His Highness. After listening to Wei Zheng's words, Li Jiancheng was so frightened that he dropped the tea cup in his hand. At the same time, he quickly refused:"No, no, how can I do such a rebellious thing?

Even if I want to be the emperor, I can just wait. After the death of his father, how can he become the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty and force the palace like Yang Guang?"

Not only did Li Jiancheng directly veto this, but even Wang Gui, Feng Li and others were frightened after hearing Wei Zheng's words. His expression changed drastically.

Even though they had always wanted Li Jiancheng to kill Li Shimin secretly to ensure his position as crown prince, they had never dared to think about forcing the emperor to give up the throne.

So Wang Gui also said to Li Jiancheng:"Your Highness is right, you can't force the palace under any circumstances. How is this different from rebellion? If word gets out, it will definitely be boycotted by hundreds of officials, abandoned by history, and will be infamy for thousands of years."

Wei Zheng Seeing what Wang Gui said, Li Jiancheng did not dare to do this, so he could only sigh and said:"In this case, there is nothing I can do. Your

Highness had no choice but to take the first path and pray that your Majesty would be mindful of family ties and the love of the Tang Dynasty." For the sake of the future, please don't hold His Highness accountable."

Li Jiancheng's expression changed after hearing Wei Zheng's words, and he thought about it carefully, as if just as Ren Zheng said, the second path he pointed out was indeed the best way.

As long as you are the emperor, why should you care if other people know the truth? _To read the ununderlined version of the novel, please download Fei Lu Xiao
