Chapter 81 eighty

"It's God's will!" After listening to Ashinayun's narration, Li Ke suddenly reached out and grabbed Ashinayun's little hand and said, "Do you know? I have the same ambition as an eagle, and I am as lonely as this eagle." Since that white cloud flew to my side, I realized that all the years of loneliness in the past were just waiting for a beating heart!" Ashina Yun blushed, showing a moved expression: "Actually, today you I have played the tune I heard thousands of times in front of the moon on the grassland, and every time I hope that the wind going south will bring it to you, but I don’t know if you like it or not.”

Li Ke hurriedly said: "How can you not like to listen to it? It is the most beautiful music in the world—" After speaking, he looked at Ashina Yun for a long time, and Ashina Yun lowered his eyes, and a red cloud flew across his face , whispered: "Why are you looking at me like that?" Li Ke admired foolishly: "You are more beautiful than in my dream." Ashinayun lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Li Ke's Eye. It wasn't until dark that Li Ke and Ashinayun returned to the gate of the palace, and his previous domineering look returned to his face.A family member came up to take the rein from the two of them. The family's eyes fell on Ashinayun, and they were taken aback, and the rein fell from their hands.An Heihu walked over from the side and scolded in a low voice: "Whatever you look at, the horses have run away." The family members came to their senses at this moment, and hurriedly ran after the horses that had run more than ten feet away.

At this time, a dirty beggar stood up from under the steps and shouted: "Your Highness." An Heihu hurriedly went up and reprimanded: "Get out of here, you don't even look at this place. You don't have to Hurry up, don’t you want to eat a board!” The beggar rushed to Li Ke and kowtowed in front of Li Ke regardless of An Heihu’s obstruction: “His Royal Highness, I am Cheng Yunliang!” Li Ke took a closer look, and the expression on his face changed drastically. He raised his eyes to look at the street outside the door, and lowered his voice to order An Heihu: "Hurry up, take him into the house." An Heihu hurriedly shouted The two family members dragged the beggar up the steps and into the mansion, and the gate of the mansion was slammed shut immediately.

The beggar was taken into a wing room in the backyard of the palace, and An Heihu asked for some leftovers, which the beggar devoured.Li Ke settled down to Ashina Cloud, and hurried over. Seeing Li Ke, the beggar threw down the bowl in his hand, knelt down and kowtowed to Li Ke one after another with tears in his eyes.Li Ke once again carefully identified the person in front of him. He had already confirmed that the person was Cheng Yunliang, because this person was Quan Wanji's classmate. Wan Ji walked around the mansion together and became very familiar with Li Ke. Li Ke asked strangely: "Cheng Yunliang, why did you become like this?" Cheng Yunliang said with tears in his eyes, "The lower official has been hiding his name all the way. He came to Chang'an by begging, so of course his appearance has changed!" Li Ke He asked again: "Didn't you die in a shipwreck?" Cheng Yunliang shed tears: "Your officer is cheating death!"

Then, Cheng Yunliang cried and told what happened.It turned out that after Hou Junji captured Dingjie Dazhai, Cheng Yunliang found that the whereabouts of millions of taels of silver in the treasury were unknown when he checked the accounts of the captured enemy troops.After unannounced visits, he discovered that the treasury was taken over by Hou Junji's adoptive son Chi Deli on the day the village was broken down, so he secretly wrote a memorial to the emperor, not wanting the memorial to fall into Hou Junji's hands, and Hou Junji went wild Furious, Chi Deli put Cheng Yunliang under house arrest.Cheng Yunliang wrote another memorial to bribe the guards to send him away, but the matter was revealed again, and Chi De immediately imprisoned him on a ship.Just when the flood came, the boat was overturned.Cheng Yunliang, who supervised the river crossing workers, was good at water, went down the river, and saved a life.After going ashore, he thought that Jingxiang was full of the old clan of the Hou family, fearing that something might happen to him, so he put his official certificate on a corpse that fell into the water at the same time, creating the illusion of drowning.

After stating what happened, Cheng Yunliang knelt on the ground and begged Li Ke to make the decision for him. Li Ke helped him up and said, "This king knows about this matter. You should stay here and take good care of your body. I have my own opinion." Cheng Yunliang's unexpected appearance made Li Ke ecstatic. He originally wanted to send this ironclad evidence to the palace immediately, but after he calmed down and thought about it, he changed his mind.Li Ke is an extremely intelligent person, because he has the dual blood of a great hero and a great conspirator, he is born with a political insight that is different from ordinary people.From Li Shimin's handling of the two incidents of the Zuo Tunwei Army's mutiny and Quan Wanji's search of the Marquis' Mansion, he could see that his father's current intention was to try his best to maintain internal stability so that he could concentrate his forces on the Northern Expedition.Now, if he handed over Cheng Yunliang, it would definitely cause a huge shock in the court. Li Shimin might not be willing to pay such a high price for a small fifth-rank official.

Taking a step back, even if Li Shimin is willing to be serious about this matter and clean up Hou Junji, it will not constitute a direct blow to Li Chengqian.And if this chess piece can be used in a different way, it can definitely cause a greater blow to Donggong, and he, Li Ke, can also get a stronger pleasure of revenge. The move that Li Ke thought of was aimed at a goal that ordinary people could never think of - the future princess Haitang.Li Ke had someone monitor Haitang for a period of time, and found that she went to Huichang Temple to offer incense every few days.So, he asked Cheng Yunliang to write another memorial that was exactly the same as last time, and then sent someone to wait for Haitang on the way to Huichang Temple to offer incense, and handed the memorial and a short message to her.

After seeing the letter, Haitang's face changed drastically. She panicked and asked her family members to send her downstairs to a restaurant designated in the letter, and asked her family members to wait downstairs while she went upstairs alone. Stepping into an elegant seat agreed in the letter, a person inside is admiring the calligraphy and painting on the wall with his back to the door.The man ordered: "Close the door." Haitang closed the door, and when the man turned around, it turned out to be Li Ke. Haitang couldn't help being taken aback. When she was with the queen of Qiyun Palace, she had seen someone who came to pay her respects to the queen. Li Ke, I haven't seen you for a few years. He has grown a lot, but his appearance hasn't changed much.

Haitang was very surprised and asked: "Why are you? Where did you get this Cheng Yunliang memorial?" Li Ke looked at Haitang. Today's beauty of Haitang is far from what it used to be, which made him pause for a moment He opened his mouth and said, "Isn't it surprising? I have as many memorials as I want." Li Ke pointed to the downstairs, where a carriage was parked. An Heihu lifted the curtain, and there was a person sitting inside. He recognized him: it was Cheng Yunliang who appeared every day in his father's tent when he was in Xiangyang.
