The reborn miracle doctor used cheats, and the prince loved him

The crown prince passed away, and Emperor Kang said that he would not mourn him until the coffin arrived. Nowadays, riots occurred frequently in various places, the country was in turmoil, and Emperor Kang was bedridden again. Some courtiers proposed to appoint Li Si as the prince to temporarily stabilize the overall situation, but Emperor Kang was furious. He refused and issued an order to urgently recruit the fourth prince Li Wen who was on the border to return to Beijing.

But before the fourth prince returned to the capital, Li Si was still in charge of the upper court proceedings. Li Si did not make things difficult for Shen Qin. He just called Bai Yu in the name of strengthening the palace guard after the lower court and asked the guards to quietly hand it to him. There was a note that asked him to try to avoid being seen and heard, and to gather at Rongde Hall in the second watch to discuss important matters.

As the commander of the Imperial City Department, it was taboo to meet the prince privately, but Bai Yu actually went there, and the person who opened the door for him was a young eunuch.

Bai Yu recognized that he was a spy from the Imperial City Division and the spy arranged by the emperor around Li Si. It seemed that he had been bribed by Li Si.

The hall was brightly lit and extremely quiet.

Li Si was playing chess alone with Xiaocui at his side. His leisurely and contented expression did not seem to worry about his situation.

Seeing Bai Yu walking into the hall dressed in low-key black clothes, Li Si raised his slender eyes and made an elegant "please" gesture.

"General Bai, would you like to play a game of chess with me?"

Bai Yu knelt down opposite Li Si without any restraint and started playing chess with him.

The chess pieces were placed on the chessboard and made a crisp sound. The two players played chess on each side, making a friendly start.

Li Si weighed the black chess piece in his hand and asked politely.

"General Bai has recently investigated the three-bow bed crossbow. Is there any progress? Can you tell me about it?"

Bai Yu held the white chess piece and spoke slowly while playing.

"I thought that the bed crossbow was huge, and it would be awkward and inconvenient to move it up to the tower, so the bed crossbow must have been assembled on the tower. There are only a handful of craftsmen in the capital who can make such a three-bow bed crossbow, so I went to investigate. , and found that no craftsman was suspected of committing the crime, I thought of a person."

Li Si leaned the black chess piece next to the white chess piece and smiled lightly.

"who?"

Bai Yu said.

"There once was a military officer named Ma Xiong who was good at making various precision weapons. He was sentenced to exile because he accidentally joined the party struggle. Later, someone reported that he had escaped on the way, and he was the only one who escaped. This Ma Xiong was short, thin, and lame. How he deceived the guards and escaped is really unbelievable. It was Li Yi who served as the Minister of Punishment at that time, but Li Yi is dead, and there is no evidence of his death."

He raised his eyes to look at Li Si, his eyes were neither warm nor cold, and his tone was neither humble nor arrogant.

"I dare to ask His Highness King Song, how should I investigate next?"

Li Si smiled slightly, stopped playing chess, picked up Xiao Cui's tea, and took a sip.

"General Bai found out about Li Yi, and then he found out about the third brother. But the third brother is dead, and General Bai also died without any evidence, so he found out about me. Is I right?"

His tone was gentle, but his eyes exuded a fierce and calm aura. After all, Bai Yu had experienced hundreds of battles and was a general, so he was not forced to retreat by his eyes.

"I am only acting according to the order, and I don't dare to speculate randomly. Your Highness is extremely intelligent, but I am dull-minded. Please give me some advice."

On the chessboard, the two pieces, black and white, were facing each other tit for tat. They were already at war with each other and were inseparable. The sharpness in Li Si's eyes faded by two points, and he gently lifted Bai Yu's surrounded chess pieces.

"This life is like a chess game. A master considers the overall situation and plans for great things. He will never give up even if it is the end game. Only by breaking the rules can he turn around and win a great victory. But a low player only knows how to follow the rules of the chess book like a puppet on strings. , being pedantic and stubborn, following the rules, losing great opportunities, and ultimately losing everything.”

Bai Yu smiled disapprovingly, and casually put the white chess piece in his hand to block Li Si's offensive.

"But I'm used to sticking to a rut, I'm afraid it's hard to change."

Li Siheiqi followed closely and smiled gently.

"Is it difficult to change, or do you dare not change? I'm afraid General Bai is not a law-abiding person."

Bai Yu looked calm.

"What does your Highness mean by this?"

Li Si raised two more white stones and said calmly.

"Back then, the Liao Kingdom invaded our borders on a large scale. General Bai led his troops to fight against the barbarians of the Liao Kingdom. However, General Bai's sister secretly had a pregnancy with the prince of the Liao Kingdom and committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy. After the Dongchuang Incident, the soldiers and the people were indignant. Bai The general killed his relatives out of justice and actually locked him in a coffin and burned him alive in public. General Bai was really loyal and selfless in his duty."

Bai Yu's eyes were slightly cold and he smiled calmly.

"Your Highness is wrong."

Li Si sighed and sighed.

"I also have a biological sister, who can't do such a cruel thing. I think the only one who can be so inhumane is my fifth brother."

He stood up slightly, moved the black chess piece to the corner closest to White Feather, took advantage of the situation to put his hand on the chessboard, and stared at Bai Yu closely with a scrutinizing gaze from close range.

"So General Bai, you didn't do it either."

Bai Yu had already expected this, he straightened his waist and said calmly without moving.

"It's just a hairpin. It's not an object belonging to a dead person, so it's not enough evidence."

"General Bai's words are wrong. How can a person talk about a dead person's belongings while he is still alive?

Li Si sat back in his seat, twirling the black chess piece in his hand, and said calmly.

"Thank you for that pearl hairpin. I remember that my roommate was Linglong and I had a relationship with her. She told me that you loved her very much, and you even gave her a gold rabbit hairpin with pearls on her birthday. Because she was born in the year of Rabbit, I guess It’s also unique.”

The more Bai Yu listened, the worse his face became. He put his hand into the chess cup, the chess pieces in his hand creaked, and he spoke straightforwardly with a slightly raised eyebrow.

"Then I dare to ask Your Highness, where is my sister? If I can't see her in person, I will never conspire with Your Highness."

"This request is reasonable and I will satisfy you."

Li Sixiao made a meaningful move and placed the last black piece on the chessboard. At this time, the white piece's territory on the chessboard had been eaten away by the black piece.

"The most important thing to avoid in chess is to be impetuous and impetuous. You will lose a big thing because of a small thing. General Bai, you lose."

Bai Yu abandoned his son, bowed to Li Sigong, and said with a faint wry smile.

"It's an honor to have the opportunity to play against His Highness, even if Bai loses."

Li Si nodded slightly and yawned.

"General Bai, you're welcome. I never stay up late. I can't hold on anymore, so I can't stay with you. Go back and rest early."

Then, he stood up and walked away with his hands behind his back, leaving only one sentence behind.

"Xiao Cui, please send General Bai off."

Xiaocui walked up to General Bai, bent her knees slightly, made a delicate salute, and said softly.

"Tomorrow at three o'clock at noon, my servant will be waiting for General Bai at the gate of Yingchun Tower."
