Chapter 2439 Chang''an is in chaos, Li Kui VS Li Si (Merry Christmas)


    Chapter 2436: Chang''an is in chaos, Li Kui VS Li Si (Merry Christmas)


    After Ban Chao was taken away, Li Shimin stood up staggeringly, glared at Li Kui and Changsun Wuji, and left the hall without looking back.


    Obviously he himself realized that after the fall of Sanguan, his heart became confused and he became no longer calm. Even Li Kui and Changsun Wuji were suspicious.


    In the battle between countries, calm leadership and non-compliance are crucial, which means whether the correct decision can be made, so Li Shimin decided to be alone.


    Even the main lord Li Shimin left, and the other ministers naturally left.


    After hesitating for a while, Li Ju decided to walk with Changsun Wuji and conducted some tests on the way.


    The reason why he died of protecting Ban Chao was that in addition to serving the Li family, he also wanted to see who would stand up and work together to protect Ban Chao.


    The situation in the Tang Dynasty is too complicated now, and the boundaries between pro-Qin and loyal Tang sects have been blurred, and those exposed to the openness of the pro-Qin sect are just small people.


    Not to mention Li Kui, even Li Shimin cannot be sure which ones are pro-Qin factions.


    Since it is impossible to be sure, Li Ku can only use a stupid method. The people who stand up with him to protect Ban Chao at least tend to kiss Qin.


    Although Li Kui did not think that Changsun Wuji would betrayal, it was also true that he was captured and released, so there must be temptations that should be there.


    After some tests, Li Jue could not test 100%, but he was only 80% sure. Changsun Wuji was not the leader of the pro-Qin faction. The reason why he protected Ban Chao was also for the sake of the Li family and his lord family.


    "If it''s not Changsun Wuji, then who will it be?"


    Li Kui''s eyes were full of thought, and the figures of Li Si, Li Longji, Li Yu, Yuwen Tai, Yang Biao, Xiong Fuchu, Xiong Qi and others appeared in his mind one after another.


    Among these people, he is not sure about each, but each one has certain suspicion.


    "Don''t worry, today''s move to ensure the get off work-off superstar will definitely make the pro-Qin faction think that I also tend to pro-Qin, so someone will definitely come to test me."


    As Li Kui expected, after he and Changsun Wuji separated, he returned to the mansion alone. Just as he was about to arrive at home, an official stopped the frame of the car.


    "Sir, please be proud, the lower officials have important matters to ask for advice."


    Inside the carriage, a cold light flashed in Li Kui''s eyes, but he hid it well and said in his heart: It''s finally here.


    But after lifting the carriage and seeing the visitor, a trace of surprise flashed in Li Ku''s eyes. The visitor turned out to be Li Ku.


    Li Bing was the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty. His military achievements were average, but his political achievements were extremely significant.


    Li Bing was originally from the Li Tang royal family, and with his outstanding political achievements, he was also a political official in Li Tang, but his weight was obviously not heavy enough and he could never be the leader of the pro-Qin faction.


    Li Kui felt a little disappointed. He thought a big fish could fall out, but he didn''t expect it to be just a bridgehead, but he couldn''t be anxious about such a thing.


    "Li Bing, why did you call me to stop me?"


    Li Kui said lightly, it is more distant than alienation.


    Although both of them were from the Li family in Longxi, they were very far apart in blood, had a big gap in status, and they didn’t have much social relationship, so naturally they didn’t have much personal relationship.


    After hearing Li Kui''s words, Li Kui said, "Sir, your lord''s idea is becoming more and more radical now. Only you and Lord Changsun can persuade him. Many officials, including our Li family, feel very uneasy and don''t know where to go."


    Li Kui sneered in his heart when he heard this. He was indeed here to test his attitude. He first made a fuss with him to see if he could defraud the big fish behind him.


    Li Bing didn''t know what Li Bing was thinking. Seeing that Li Bing''s words were full of disappointment and dissatisfaction with Li Shimin, he thought he also had a tendency to be close to Qin, so he was naturally overjoyed.


    However, Li Bing is not a person who knows the depth. Although he thinks he can win over Li Bing, he still doesn''t know the truth after all, so he will naturally not easily send out the information of the pro-Qin faction.


    Besides, he didn''t know who the big network behind the pro-Qin faction was. He just came to test Li Kui in a vague way after receiving the order.


    After talking to Li Kui for a long time, Li Kui said goodbye and left.


    Li Kui looked at Li Kui''s departure back, his eyes full of coldness. If this line is digging deep, there may be unexpected receipts.


    At the same time, as soon as Li Si returned home, he secretly met with the Qin spy.


    No one would have thought that Li Shimin''s most relied on was the leader of the Qin faction, Li Si, who had always insisted on anti-Qin, would have been Li Tang''s pro-Qin faction.


    The person who secretly sent Li Bing to contact Li Bing was Li Si. He wanted to know what Li Bing was thinking, but he did not dare to test Li Bing himself, so he could only let Li Bing test it on his own.


    As the head of the pro-Qin faction, Li Si knew that the pro-Qin faction seemed to be a big deal in Li Tang, but in fact it was just a castle in the air.


    Li Shimin''s control over the army is too strong. They have no military power, so they can only wave flags and shout. Once it is completely exposed and Li Shimin is determined to fight against the Qin Dynasty to the end, they will definitely attack them and the pro-Qin factions first.


    This is also the main reason why Li Si is unwilling to be exposed.


    "I heard that Li Shimin was going to cook Ban Chao, but the one who stood up and sacrificed his life to stop him was not you, Lord Li, but Li Kui and Changsun Wuji."


    The man in black said coldly that he was the second yellow number, second only to the first yellow number in Chang''an.


    Li Si knew that the other party was doubting his position, and couldn''t help but smile bitterly: "It''s not that simple here. Shimin''s overreaction, Li Kui and Changsun Wuji jumped out again. I suspect that Shimin was setting up a trap." Huang Zi No. 2 was stunned. After a little thought, he also showed a hint of recognition. After all, Li Shimin is not an ordinary person. His reaction today is indeed a bit abnormal, but he intentionally works harder.


    "Mr. Li, since you think this is Li Shimin setting up a trap, why do you send someone to test Li Ku?"


    "This is just a speculation, and it is not certain below. Once Li Kui is really apart from Li Shimin, if he fights for it, it will not be as simple as capturing half of Guanzhong, but it may even capture Li Shimin alive.


    On the contrary, at most it is to give up Li Bing, and there will be no evidence to point to us. ”


    Li Si is a qualified politician, and political struggles are undoubtedly the most dangerous. If you are not careful, you will suffer the whole family, so he will never be soft-hearted when it is time to give up.


    Huangzi No. 2 nodded. As a Li family, Li Si didn''t mind taking Li Bing as an abandoned son. As a Qin person, he naturally wouldn''t care about these things.


    "Li Tang is separated and Chang''an cannot last long, but Li Shimin still has more than 100,000 Tang troops. You have to do what you need to try to get more people to come, and minimize the losses for our Great Qin army. It is best to take Chang''an without bloodshed."


    "I understand, but it''s already this time. I can always meet the adult behind you, right? The legendary spy number one in Huang Zi?" Li Si asked with a faint smile.


    Huangzi No. 2''s pupils suddenly shrank when he heard this, and he was shocked. The secret spy lurking inside Li Tang was indeed Huangzi No. 1, but how did Li Si know?


    After seeing the reaction of Huangzi No. 2, Li Si''s smile even more, and he naturally analyzed it.


    Although Li Si has decided to turn to Daqin, the Yellow No. 1 behind him has never been on the road. Obviously, he has not completely trusted him.


    Now that the decisive battle is about to begin, Li Si must know the identity of Huangzi No. 1, and meeting between the two sides will be more beneficial to the next action.


    After a long time of silence, Huangzi No. 2 spoke, "Okay, I will tell you that as for whether you will see you, I can''t control you."


    "No problem, you just need to pass the message truthfully."


    "Um."


    Huangzi No. 2 nodded honestly and never let down his previous arrogant attitude again. He saw a trace of Jia Xu in Li Si. Li Si''s status would definitely be above him if he entered Qin in the future, so it would be better not to do so.


    "There is another point that Ban Chao must not die." Li Si said.


    Although Ban Chao is in prison now, he does directly represent Li Jing''s people, and is the only banner of the Qin Dynasty in Chang''an. His life and death will determine the future of the entire Li Tang.


    All pro-Qin officials and Li family members do not want Ban Chao to die in Chang''an, and this naturally includes Li Si.


    "When it comes to the day of the uprising, I still need Ban Chao to stand up and strengthen the determination of all pro-Qin personnel. Although I can block the famous gun for Ban Chao, I cannot block the hidden arrows. I still need you to protect him in secret." Li Si said in a deep voice.


    "Don''t worry, nearly half of our prisons are all our people. Unless Li Shimin speaks, no one can kill Lord Ban Chao."


    "I''ll feel relieved if this happens."


    As soon as Li Si finished speaking, footsteps came from outside the house.


    Upon hearing the news, Huangzi No. 2 glanced at Li Si, then jumped onto the beam of the room and hid.


    "Sir, the secret letter from Lord Li Bing."


    "Okay, you go out."


    "yes."


    After the guards went out, Huangzi No. 2 jumped off the beam, and Li Si also opened the letter in front of him, and the two of them began to read it together.


    The letter was written about Li Kui being dissatisfied with Li Shimin, and Li Kui felt that he could win over Li Kui.


    Huangzi No. 2 woke up when he saw this: "It''s great. If I can win Li Jue, I, Daqin, will be effortless..."


    Before he finished speaking, Li Si walked to the candlestick and burned the letter directly.


    "Alas, are you?"


    "Li Ke is a man with deep thoughts. Even if he is dissatisfied with Shimin''s actions, he will never show it so obviously."


    "That''s what you said?"


    "Yes, this must be used to pull out my trap."


    Li Si was extremely serious and said in a deep voice: "Settle off all contact with Li Bing, this person can give up."


    "This, okay."


    Just as Li Si and Li Xu were fighting wits and courage, Ban Chao in the prison was also facing a choice: Is it better to eat beef? Or is it better to eat mutton?


    Ban Chao is not in jail. Not only is he not punished, his food is luxurious, but he also has wine and meat. Those who don’t know think they are here for vacation.


    ?Because of the new job, it has not been updated on Thursday and Friday for two days. It will be supplemented this weekend, and there will be updates tonight
