Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 165 Goodbye
When Li Ke saw the short and thin middle-aged man with scars on his face, he couldn't help being shocked.

That thin figure, that face with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, those two long beards...

Isn't this the mouse spirit, Sangjidu, who was dispatched to his Shu land a few days ago and gave him countless jewels!

"Hey! Isn't this the Minister of Foreign Affairs! Why is it like this now?"

Li Ke looked at the scars on Sangjidu's body. He was obviously beaten, his legs and feet were still tied with splints, and there were whip marks on his face and hands.

When Sangjidu saw Li Ke, he was surprised at first, and then showed a bitter expression.

He cupped his hands with difficulty: "I have seen His Highness the King of Shu..."

Li Ke smiled, waved to his subordinates to help him sit down, and served him a cup of tea.

He had previously learned from Xiaozuo that this Sangjidu was whipped by the eldest prince in court and had one of his legs broken because he failed an errand.

Later, the eldest prince was still not relieved, so he found an excuse at random, dismissed his official position, wanted to put him in prison, and planned to kill him to vent his anger.

Seeing that this person might be useful, Xi Zuo planned to save him, and asked a doctor to show him his injuries, and kept him in this temporary residence.

Li Ke stood up, walked to Sangjidu, sighed and said, "Speaking of which, you are today because of this king..."

Sangjidu shook his head: "Your Highness is on the other side of the second prince. You and I belong to different camps, so we are fighting each other..."

Seeing his dejected appearance, Li Ke felt rather embarrassed, this eldest prince is really a ruthless person, if he messed up his errand, he would kill someone.

Li Ke leaned over and looked at his leg injury.The broken leg has been immobilized and has gradually recovered. It seems that it can still walk with a crutch behind it, but it is not a disabled person.

Standing up again, Li Ke asked: "I came here to ask you something..."

Before he could finish his words, Sangjidu cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, there is something, and the villain still hopes that His Highness can lend a helping hand..."

He struggled to stand up, but Li Ke pushed him back to his seat in time.

Sangjidu didn't struggle any more, he arched his hands and said, "Your Highness must have plotted something when he came to my Niboluo this time. The villain only asks His Highness to help me with this favor, and if His Highness entrusts me with something later, the villain will do his best !"

Li Ke thought for a moment, then asked, "What's the matter?"

Sang Jidu said: "The villain has offended the eldest prince and is hated by him. Although the villain is trying to save his life, but the villain's family..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Ke raised his hand to stop him.

Li Ke said: "This matter was initiated by this king, and this king should also take some responsibility to prevent the eldest prince from harming the innocent."

He then ordered the servant to come, asked for the contact information and token from Sangjidu, and went to Sangjidu to pick up his relatives.

After this matter was done, Nasangji was very grateful, and he cupped his hands again: "Your Highness... If you have any questions, just ask them now!"

Li Ke smiled: "Don't you need to wait for your relatives to come over?"

Sangjidu sighed: "The villain is hated by the eldest prince and is already a mortal man. Now he is His Highness's prisoner. If His Highness wants to ask something from the villain, he will naturally have all kinds of means. The villain is sure, Your Highness will not deceive me."

He spoke miserably, and it was obvious that all thoughts were lost.

Li Ke didn't delay anymore, and asked directly: "You used to be Nakti's subordinate, so you should know him very well. Tell me, is the relationship between this person and the eldest prince really close and unbreakable?"

Sangjidu looked up at Li Ke, and asked, "Could it be that His Highness wants to drive a wedge between the two of them, and let Mr. Keti switch to the second prince?"

He immediately shook his head: "This is impossible! The eldest prince married Keti's daughter, and between the two of them..."

Li Ke raised his hand to stop him: "What if the eldest prince is gone?"

His words made Sangjidu startled, and his eyes lit up immediately: "Not here? What does Your Highness mean?"

Li Ke smiled and nodded: "As you guessed!"

"Not anymore..."

Sanchidu's eyes were darting around, and the corners of his mouth were raised from time to time, unable to conceal his joy for a while.

Li Ke looked at his expression and snickered in his heart. This rat spirit must be happy about this. He is hated by the eldest prince. Unless the eldest prince dies, he will never see the light of day again.But once the eldest prince dies, the mouse spirit will have room to maneuver. When he turns around to support the second prince, he will also have a chance to make a comeback.

Li Ke guessed his mind thoroughly, but he didn't expose it, and let the mouse spirit think more about it.

It is reasonable for this rat spirit to give priority to his own destiny and future.

After Sanjidu pondered for a long time, he finally raised his head and said: "Your Highness, there is hope for this matter!"

He continued to analyze: "Although Mr. Keti supports the eldest prince because of his in-law relationship, he is the most shrewd and sophisticated person in the world, and he knows how to judge the situation best."

He said bitterly again: "Villain, I have followed Lord Keti for many years. This time the eldest prince wants to punish the villain, even kill the villain. Lord Keti has never said a word... He is the most realistic person Benefits, no fetters on emotional likes and dislikes!"

Li Ke nodded. He had already heard about these situations from Essay, and had a rough judgment on Keti.

But these judgments are only comments on this person's character, and cannot accurately predict his future decisions.

Just because this person is indifferent to reality, one cannot arbitrarily think that once the eldest prince dies, he will inevitably turn to support the second prince.

He looked at Sanjidu again: "Is there anything else?"

Sangjidu thought for a moment, then raised his head suddenly: "And... and the eldest prince and princess, the relationship is not very good..."

"Princess, is she Keti's daughter?"

"Correct!"

Sangjidu said: "The concubine has complained to Lord Keti many times, saying that the eldest prince is out messing around all day long. He not only summons many concubines every day, but also often goes out to find women. For this matter, Lord Keti also You have mentioned the eldest prince harshly!"

"Do you often go out to find women?"

Li Ke thought for a while, and already had a preliminary plan in mind.

Sangjidu continued: "Master Keti once mentioned something in front of the eldest prince. If the eldest prince continues to behave mischievously, he will no longer support the eldest prince..."

Immediately, Sangjidu said to himself with a sly smile: "His words are naturally intended to scare the eldest prince. How could a person like Lord Keti give up the political investment of the eldest prince? He married his daughter to the eldest prince at the beginning. Prince, just to seek the position of head of state!"

Li Ke suddenly understood at this time. What he was most worried about was that killing the eldest prince would cause Keti to counterattack.

But now, he has an ingenious plan, which guarantees that he can kill the eldest prince without arousing Keti's dislike towards the second prince.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the secret agents to keep an eye on the eldest prince's movements at all times, ready to wait for the opportunity!
