Chapter 95: Better than a 100,000 Army

Li You put the letter in his pocket and smiled and said, "It's okay, let's continue on the road."

He said to Baihu, "Come here." As he said that, he rode his horse to the side of the road.

The white tiger followed, and Li You muttered in his ear for a while. The white tiger nodded and left.

Besides, Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi came to Chang'an, and they first went home and looked for their mothers. Then, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong took Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi to meet Fang Xuanling, Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi followed Li You to Tuyuhun, not a public sect, but a private act. Only by following such procedures can they present Li You's memorial to Li Shimin.

Chongyifang, Fangfu.

When Fang Xuanling heard that Cheng Yaojin and others were asking for a meeting, he was a little confused. He didn't know what they were doing to him so late.

When he saw Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi, he knew that this matter was related to Li You.

Fang Xuanling looked shocked after reading Li You's memorial. After he asked Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi carefully, he praised:

"It's really incredible. His Highness, the King of Qi alone is worth an army of 100,000!

Old Cheng, Yuchi Gong, you do have vision. No wonder they let the children follow His Highness King Qi to make achievements?!"

Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong both looked proud.

After chatting for a few words, Fang Xuanling said, "It's getting late today, and tomorrow morning, I'll go and ask for your Majesty."

Cheng Yaojin and others said goodbye. After leaving the gate of Chongyifang, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but be excited and said to Yuchi Gong: "Big Lao Hei, go and have a few drinks in my mansion. It's so happy!"

Yuchi Gong smiled and said, "Okay, let's have a good time. I'll live in your house tonight, haha."

Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi followed Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong toward Cheng Mansion.

The next morning, after the morning court, Fang Xuanling asked to meet Li Shimin alone.

Liangyi Hall.

Li Shimin was also shocked after reading Li You's memorial. He asked, "Xuanling, what do you think?"

Fang Xuanling smiled wryly and shook his head, saying, "Your Majesty, to be honest, when the old minister saw this memorial, he was shocked and didn't believe it at all. However, the old minister carefully asked Cheng Chuliang and Yuchi Baoqi, and deeply admired His Highness King Qi.

Your Majesty, you have a good son!"

Li Shimin sighed: "This child is really a good mess. He dared to do such a dangerous thing, but he actually succeeded. He deserves to be my son!"

Fang Xuanling: "Old minister congratulations to Your Majesty. His Highness, King of Qi, did not hesitate to take risks in order to rescue His Highness, Shu and the soldiers of the Tang army. He was also smart and courageous, and he actually fought for such a favorable situation for the court.

The old minister really couldn't believe it was done by a 16-year-old child.

The old minister once put himself in his shoes and thought that if the old minister was in such an environment, he would never be able to do so. The old minister was deeply impressed."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Yes, this child is indeed good, but this kind of person who is not stingy is worrying.

Let’s just say that he went to Tuyuhun without permission this time. If he said hello in advance, would he be relieved of a lot of trouble soon?" Now, he admires Li You very much and hopes that he can be more mature.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, I forgive the old minister for saying frankly. If His Highness of the King of Qi asked you for the order at that time, you might not believe it or agree."

Li Shimin thought about the situation at that time and did not believe that there would be a coup in Tuyuhun. He heard that Li You left Beijing and asked Hou Junji to send someone to recover him.

Li Shimin shook his head with a wry smile.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the King of Qi, made great contributions this time, but he also caused a lot of trouble. So many people are waiting to impeach him.

This matter should not be underestimated, and you cannot be wronged by His Highness King Qi and those who followed him to sacrifice their lives."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Li You is a child who can do it, but he can really cause trouble. Just talk about the fact that he gave those people money and how sensitive it was, it made people catch the handle.

There is also a proper solution to this matter.

Xuanling, please inform Li You and come to see me immediately after you come back. I want to hear what he said.”

"My memory, follow the order." Fang Xuanling said goodbye to the order.

Shu King's Mansion.

Li Ke and Quan Wanji were drinking wine, and their faces were full of spring breeze.

Quan Wanji was very excited. He said: "Your Highness, this trip to Tuyuhun has gained a lot. Not to mention anything else, your reputation as a hero has become a lifelong capital. From then on, no one dares to question your loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. No matter what you do, you can do it upright, and it will first occupy a great political justice."

Li Ke was also very excited. He smiled and said, "The so-called "So-death of disaster will bring good fortune. Our heroic deeds have been recognized by our father and the people of the world, which is indeed a great reward!"

After saying that, he raised his glass and said, "Come on, Master, celebrate."

After drinking, Quan Wanji said, "This time, King Qi robbed soldiers, divided his property privately, and colluded with the thief Murong Zun. The crime is quite serious. You can do a good job in this matter."

Quan Wanji has always been worried about the blow caused to him by Li You. This time he finally seized Li You's handle, how could he let it go?!

Li Ke was a little hesitant and said, "The facts of robbing soldiers and privately dividing property are there. But we cannot grasp the inside story of his collusion with Murong Zun.

Besides, this matter is too serious, it is a crime of treason. After all, Li You is my brother. If this crime is confirmed, he may have life worries.

Don't talk about this." He was still caring about brotherhood.

Quan Wanji said: "Your Highness, your concern for your brotherhood shows your kindness and generosity.

But, don’t think about it, in order to make money, King Qi knew that you and ministers were detained in the palace, and he would have life worries at any time. However, he ignored our lives and death and acted recklessly, which resulted in us being taken to the execution ground and almost died.

Think about it, did he care about his brotherhood at that time?"

When Li Ke remembered what happened on the execution ground, he felt a little scared and couldn't help but nod.

Quan Wanji said: "Your Highness, if King Qi really colludes with the rebel Murong Zun, it would be a crime of treason. It would violate the most serious national law. This is not something that can be forgiven if you care about brotherhood.

You can't know that the law is breaking the law."

Li Ke was finally moved by Quan Wanji, and he said, "Okay, master, you should be responsible for investigating this matter."

Quan Wanji said: "At present, the easiest thing to catch the handle of King Qi is the robbed property. They will definitely transport the property back to Chang'an. I will send more people to stop these finances. This is a foregone conclusion."

Li Ke said, "Okay, just transfer troops from our mansion and intercept them on the road."

Quan Wanji thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, no. What we can think of is that the King of Qi should be able to think of it. I guess they will not go to Fanglin Gate to enter the city, and I am not sure which city gate we will go to.

Therefore, you try to find more people to deploy at various doors to prevent them from sneaking into Chang'an City."

"This..." Li Ke was a little embarrassed.

Chang'an City is vast and has eleven city gates, which requires a large number of people.

He thought for a while and said, "Master, go find Chai Zhewei and ask him to send troops to help you."

Chai Zhewei is the eldest son of Li Yuan's son-in-law, Chai Shao, Duke Xiang of Qiaoguo. He is Li Ke's best friend. He is currently the General of the Right Guard.

"I'll go and arrange it now." Quan Wanji hurriedly left after receiving the order.

Zhang Baogui, Hou Cheng and Li Duan carried a carriage loaded with money and jewelry, and walked all the way, and finally returned to Chang'an City.
