After several days of investigation and interrogation, Wei Hao's statement was confirmed.

Li Tai is indeed inextricably linked to the underground world of Guihuafang.

However, since Gonggou is dead, it cannot be directly proved that he was instructed by Li Tai to manage and manage the underground world of Guihuafang.

It is also impossible to directly prove that Li Tai intended to assassinate Li Chengqian by cultivating dead soldiers through the underground world of Guihuafang.

When Li Tai thought that the relationship could be separated, Wei Hao stepped forward again and provided two witnesses to the investigators.

One of the witnesses was the female killer who followed Gonggou before.

When Wei Hao spared her life, she left Chang'an and lived in seclusion in a remote mountain village.

Recently, Wei Hao found her and asked her to testify against the unknown relationship between Gong Gou and Li Tai.

In order to repay Wei Hao, the female killer agreed to stand up.

However, since Gong Gou is dead, her testimony can only serve as supporting evidence, and it cannot directly prove that Gong Gou was instructed by Li Tai to secretly train dead soldiers for Li Tai.

However, her testimony has made Li Er realize that although there is no direct evidence, the fact that Li Tai instructed Gong Gou to train dead men cannot be false.

Another witness provided by Wei Hao is Zhang Shan.

Zhang Shan is the brigade commander in the guard team of Wei Wangfu.

Zhang Shan testified that he had seen Li Tai and people from Gaoju Kingdom secretly communicate.

The information provided by Zhang Shan made the monarchs and ministers suspicious.

If Li Tai really had an affair with a foreign country, it would be a crime of treason.

Li Er immediately ordered people to search Wei Wang's mansion, and sure enough, he searched Wei Wang's mansion to find the letter between Li Tai and the king of Gaogu Kingdom.

In the two letters, it was discovered that the king of Gaogu State expressed his full support for Li Tai's bid for the crown prince.

The condition mentioned in it is that if Li Tai succeeds to the throne in the future, he must assist Gaogu Kingdom to annex Bai and Xin.

These two letters can be said to have confirmed Li Tai's private collusion with foreign countries in order to compete for the crown prince.

It was a crime of treason.

Li Er was furious and interrogated Li Tai himself.

Li Tai dragged his bulging body and knelt in front of Li Er, with an aggrieved expression on his face, crying bitterly to defend himself.

He told Li Er that the king of Gaogu State had indeed written him a letter, but he did not agree to the request of the King of Gaogu State, so it was not treason.

Since it is impossible to prove that Li Tai replied to the king of Gaogu Kingdom, it is not possible to judge Li Tai as treason based on the two letters.

Li Er had always loved this fat son very much, and he couldn't bear to see him crying bitterly.

After listening to his defense again, I think what he said is also reasonable.

It is really impossible to prove his treason based on two letters alone.

When Li Erjian asked Li Tai, whether he instructed Gong Gou to secretly train dead men, and whether he used Guihuafang to make money.

Li Tai admitted that he collected Gonggou's money and opened up relationships for Gonggou, so that Gonggou could operate in Guihuafang without being seized by the government.

However, Li Tai denied instigating Gong Gou to train dead men, and even more denied that he wanted to use dead men to assassinate Li Chengqian.

Li Tai denied it categorically, shouting that he was wronged, crying and shouting bitterly, saying that someone had set the blame on him.

Now that Gonggou is dead, there is no proof of death.

Li Er deliberately opened a side to this love subnet, and only held Li Tai accountable for secretly accepting money.

As for raising dead soldiers privately, the matter of intending to assassinate Li Chengqian was left alone.

After all, Li Tai did not assassinate Li Chengqian yet.

What's more, Li Chengqian has already been demoted to a commoner because of his rebellion, and he is going to be exiled to a remote place.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove that Li Tai has done the above things, Li Er is not stupid.

However, thinking of Li Tai's filial piety to him all the time, being well-behaved and smart, Li Er really couldn't bear to convict him.

After Li Er's careful consideration, he finally ordered Li Tai's escort to be dismissed and imprisoned in Beiyuan.

After Li Tai fell from power, the faction that supported Li Zhi and the faction that supported Li Ke began to fight secretly again.

In the end, there were many more ministers who supported Li Zhi as the crown prince than those who supported Li Ke.

Many ministers who originally supported Li Tai turned to support Li Zhi after Li Tai's downfall.

In this way, Li Zhi picked up a big deal, and Li Er made him the crown prince and became the prince.

After Li Zhi became the prince, the most grateful person was naturally Wei Hao.

He knew that it was Wei Hao who spoke for him in front of his father, which changed his father's view of him.

It was also because of Wei Hao that Li Tai fell from power.

Not long after Li Zhi became the prince, he played to Li Er and recommended Wei Hao as the prince's Shaobao.

Li Er considered again and again, agreed to Li Zhi's petition, and promoted Wei Hao to the crown prince Shaobao.

Prince Shaobao is an official in the East Palace and is responsible for protecting the prince.

Prince Shaobao is as famous as Prince Shaoshi and Prince Shaofu, and belongs to the second rank.

They belonged to the deputies of Taibao, Taishi, and Taifu respectively.

Li Zhi was not afraid of avoiding suspicion, and obviously wanted to win over Wei Hao.

The other ministers also understood that Wei Hao had been of great help to Li Zhi's ability to become the crown prince.

Even if Li Zhi wanted to win over Wei Hao, or take this opportunity to thank Wei Hao, it was reasonable and there was no objection.

Anyone can do this.

This also proves that Li Zhi is a person who knows how to repay kindness.

After Wei Hao was promoted to Prince Shaobao, he went to work in the East Palace.

A reminder came out from the combat merit system, rewarding 100000 combat merit points.

Converted into 100 spiritual power points!
Other rewards did not.

Wei Hao already knows that when the meritorious service system needs to make military exploits, the rewards will be more.

The rewards from the system are not many, but Wei Hao's wife gave him a big reward.

Li Yan'er is pregnant again.

Not long after Li Yaner became pregnant, Wei Hao and Li Yueer became a real couple.

At this time, the followers of Li Chengqian, Hou Junji, Li Yuanchang, and Li Tai have been cleaned up by Tiance Shadow Guards.

The battle for the crown prince in the Tang court came to an end.

Chang'an has entered into a state of stability.

Shiyi was also almost overwhelmed.

But not long after, the old Luo State sent envoys to Tang.

The envoy of the old Luo state to the Tang Dynasty told Gaoju state that it was trying to cut off the passage from the old Luo state to the Tang Dynasty, and did not want the old Luo state to surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

Not only that, Gaoju Kingdom sent troops to attack the old Luo Kingdom, intending to annex it.

After listening to the envoy of the old Luo state, Li Er immediately sent an envoy to Gaogu state and ordered him to stop attacking the old Luo state.

But the reply Li Er got was that Gao Juguo rejected Datang's request.

Not only that, Gao Juguo also threatened to destroy the Tang Dynasty sooner or later.

Li Er became furious, and immediately decided to send troops to conquer Gaogu Kingdom.

For the Gaogu Kingdom entrenched in the Liaodong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er had long wanted to subdue it.

It's just that Xue Yanguo invaded Monan first, and then there was a dispute for the crown prince, which made Li Er unable to take the opportunity to deal with Gaojuguo.

Now, after two years of recuperation, Datang is ready.

Li Er learned the lessons of the previous dynasty and ordered the Ministry of War to select those who are willing to go to war, so as not to cause too much burden on the people.

In order to conquer the Gaogu Kingdom, the previous dynasty recruited a large number of people without compensation, so that some people interrupted their brothers and feet to avoid going out and corvee.
