"During the war, all of you were like fucking tortoises. As soon as the war was over, you started jumping around. You can't do this, you can't do that, but you can come out as a whole."

Cheng Yaojin was directly laughed at by them. Datang's national strength is low now, natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, in Cheng Yaojin's view, it is undoubtedly the best choice to take advantage of this opportunity to form an alliance with Li Yi.

Even if the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty cannot be guaranteed, at least in a short period of time, there will be no worries about foreign aggression, but some people can't see the reality clearly and come out to sing the opposite.

"Your Majesty, Duke Lu not only insulted his ministers and others, but also never left Emperor Yi with three words. I'm afraid this person has already rebelled."

"Yes, Your Majesty, even if Cheng Yaojin did not rebel, he is still in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han. He thinks about Li Yi in every word and deed. His heart no longer belongs to my Tang Dynasty. Please punish him severely. To serve as an example to others."

"Your Majesty, Cheng Yaojin has been doing business with Li Yi all these years. I'm afraid the business is fake, but the information about my Tang Dynasty is the truth. Please punish Cheng Yaojin severely, so as to make an example of others."

"My minister agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

"..."

Cheng Yaojin came from an ordinary background, but he was reused by Li Shimin, which made some people dislike him. In the past five years, he has made a lot of money because of his cooperation with Li Yi, which makes people even more jealous.

Now that they have finally found the right opportunity to impeach him, they will naturally not let it go.

"Your Majesty, do you think so?"

Cheng Yaojin didn't care about other people's opinions, but turned his attention to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin sighed, looking at the empty hall, his heart was full of sadness.

Du Ruhui was driven back to the countryside by him, and the other civil and military officials were implicated because of their family backgrounds. Now there are only dozens of officials available in the court, which is far from the prosperous Tang Dynasty he imagined.

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's question, Li Shimin looked at him and asked, "Zhijie, is it possible that in your heart, you also think that my Tang Dynasty needs to rely on Li Yi's breath to survive?"

Cheng Yaojin: "..." That's a good question, that's what he thought, but obviously His Majesty didn't want to hear his answer.

Cheng Yaojin's silence made Li Shimin understand a bit.

Whether as a monarch or a father, he is unwilling to bow his head to others, especially if this person is his son.

Li Yi sent troops to help defeat Tuyuhun, but he also got benefits, so in Li Shimin's view, the other party didn't have any losses, but he had a huge loss.

But in order not to owe Li Yi any favors, Li Shimin still issued an order, "Li Jing, I order you to lead one hundred thousand troops to help Li Yi and repay his friendship for solving the crisis of the Yellow River this time."

"The minister obeys the order."

Cheng Yaojin moved his lips, but he didn't stand up and didn't say anything. After all, His Majesty didn't trust him in his heart.

When he walked out of the hall, Cheng Yaojin wrapped his clothes subconsciously, he didn't know whether it was the early spring that turned warm or cold, or human nature was cold.

"Old Cheng, what's wrong with you?" Yu Chigong was not as sensitive to these things as Cheng Yaojin, seeing Cheng Yaojin's reaction, he looked puzzled.

Cheng Yaojin shook his head, didn't explain, just said: "Old Hei, I have a business to discuss in Youzhou recently, but I can't get away, I plan to let Cheng Chumo go, if Baolin and Baoqi are okay , let them accompany Chu Mo."

"There are a lot of people, so it's better to have someone to take care of you."

Yuchi Jingde nodded, and readily agreed, "It's just right, let Baolin and Baoqi go to see their sister, I don't know how that girl Yanran is doing."

Thinking of his daughter, Yu Chigong wished he could go to Youzhou in person, and after saying a few words, the two went home separately.

Li Jing also set off on the second day with an army of [-].

……

"Your Majesty, where are you going?"

Seeing Li Yi put down the pen in her hand, Wu Mei stood up, stretched, and walked out of the hall, and hurriedly followed.

"Take a break, I'm a little tired, go for a walk." Hearing the sound of footsteps, Li Yi turned his head and said.

The night in Fucheng City is different from that in Youtang. There are no lights of thousands of houses here, and there is no lively night market. There is just a chilly silence.

A few stars of Sheila were looming in the sky, and Li Yi walked casually to the pavilion in the garden and sat down.

Of course, this season, there are no flowers in the garden, and it looks a little decayed.

Walking out the door, feeling the chill, Wu Mei quickly retreated, grabbed Li Yi's cloak, and walked out again.

As soon as she walked out the door, she felt a figure flash in front of her eyes, and when she looked again, there was nothing but silence around her, Wu Mei rubbed her eyes, feeling dazzled.

When she found Li Yi, Li Yi was talking to a maid who was Tuyuhun, "Is the empress feeling better?"

In the past two days, Lu Ziyu has been inconvenient, and Wu Mei has been left to take care of Li Yi, but every night, someone will be sent to bring some snacks and tea to Li Yi.

Therefore, Li Yi was not surprised to see this maid.

Alan nodded but did not speak.

"Put on your cloak, Your Majesty. It's chilly at night." Wu Mei came over and was about to put the cloak on Li Yi, but Li Yi reached out to take it, "Thank you, I'll just come by myself."

"This Alan is really pitiful. She lost her relatives at a young age and can't speak yet. Fortunately, she is already the wife of our Youtang soldier. I believe she will be happy in the future."

When Wu Mei sympathized with Alan, her face looked lost.

Therefore, he didn't notice the flash of hatred in Alan's eyes, but felt a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and Alan had already been kicked out by Emperor Yi.

Just heard a bang.

After Alan's body hit the wall, he fell to the ground.

Wu Mei was shocked, "What's going on?"

"I've noticed that something is wrong with her a long time ago." Li Yi said coldly, this Alan concealed his emotions really well, but how could he escape his eyes.

While speaking, Li Yi had already walked in front of Alan, looking down at her, "Who ordered you to assassinate me?"

"Bah, thief, you destroyed my country and let your soldiers insult us. I wish I could eat your flesh and drink your blood."

Bright red blood flowed out of her mouth as she spoke, but she didn't care at all, and Li Yigao looked at her with a look of death.

Standing there, Wu Mei was a little frightened. When she heard Alan's voice and turned her face in shock, she saw a sharp arrow coming through the air.

"Be careful, Your Majesty."

Wu Mei shouted quickly, and just about to rush over, a whip was wrapped around her neck, and when she wanted to struggle, she was already imprisoned.

"Who are you? Let me go."

"Be honest, if you move again, I will kill you."
