"Mr. Li, why did you help Han Yi just now?"

As soon as he left the palace, Xu Jingzong immediately fired fire at Li Yi's mansion.

Li Yifu uttered, "Grandmaster, why haven't you understood it yet? Your Majesty and Sikong clearly wanted to protect Han Yi, and this case cannot be sentenced."

"Of course I can see it, but haven't you? Even so, Your Majesty still dares to make the case arbitrarily. How could you speak up for Han Yi at this time?" Xu Jingzong said very unhappy.

Li Yifu's eyes shook a few times and said, "Grandmaster, you have to think clearly. Our biggest enemy is not Han Yi. Han Yuan, Lai Ji and others. Haven't you seen that they have turned to Han Yi? He is also aristocrats, and Han Yi and them have grudges. Why do they stand on Han Yi's side? This principle is very simple. They hope to gain support from poor families. If we continue to fight against Han Yi, it is equivalent to offending poor families in the world. Once Han Yuan, Lai Ji and them *****, our lives are worrying. Now we should act separately. You stand on the side of the aristocrats, and I will say a few words to the poor families. What is the result? We can face it calmly without losing all the money."

He was born in a poor family, and now he is unprecedentedly united in a poor family. He can't see the benefits. Li Yifu is cunning by nature, and he cares about his own interests.

Xu Jingzong frowned and said, "You mean, Han Yuan, Lai Ji intends to use this to deal with us."

Li Yifu said: "I'm not sure about this, but it's possible. If we continue to target Han Yi, who can guarantee that they won't do this."

"You're saying something is reasonable." Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "But in this way, Han Yi can be considered a complete victory, this."

Li Yifu said: "Grandmaster, this matter is not necessarily true in my opinion. Although Your Majesty prefers Han Yi, Your Majesty does not dare to offend the gentry easily. Therefore, it depends on how Your Majesty plans to balance it."

Cui family.

"Brother, what's the situation?"

As soon as Choi Yi-hyun returned home, Choi Yi-chung immediately came to meet him.

Cui Yi-hyun sighed, sat down, and said, "Sikong Li Ji did not help us, but was still neutral as always, and even leaned towards Han Yi. What is even more unexpected is that Han Yuan and Lai Ji and others seem to be standing on Han Yi's side. I think they want to use Han Yi's case to deal with me and Xu Jingzong. There are more and more voices supporting Han Yi, and I think Han Yi will be released soon."

Cui Yizhong's face turned pale when he heard this, "Then—will that mean—!"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sweat. This matter was so big that if there was any deviation, the Cui family in Qinghe might be ruined!

Cui Yixuan glanced at him and said, "Don't be anxious. If Han Yi is released, it does not mean that Your Majesty is planning to deal with our gentry. However, Your Majesty did not make a conclusion at that time. I think Your Majesty may not know what to do. This matter is extremely complicated and can't be explained clearly in one word, and no one can figure it out." Speaking of this, he paused and said, "By the way, why haven't you seen the sword recently?"

Cui Yizhong was stunned and said, "Ji Ren went out for a long distance half a month ago. What did you ask him?"

Cui Yixuan said: "I want to hear his opinion, why did this kid go out far at this time?"

The next day.

Military camp.

"Emperor——!"

Li Zhi raised his hand and stopped the soldiers who were about to salute in front of the prison door. He waved his hand and said lightly: "Open the door."

"Abide by the order!"

The soldier quickly opened the door with his trembling hands.

Li Zhi walked inside alone. When he entered the door, he saw Han Yi sitting on a cloth pad with disheveled hair, biting a chicken leg in his mouth, and his mouth was covered in oil.

Han Yi was having fun eating. When he suddenly saw Li Zhi coming, he was at a loss. Should he continue to bite or hide the chicken legs?

Oh my anger!

When Li Zhi saw this scene, he cursed. As the emperor, I am the emperor. I have been wiping your butt outside all day, and my hands are calloused. You are actually so popular here that you drink spicy food. Who is the emperor?

"I'm going to see your Majesty."

Han Yi, who suddenly realized, quickly stood up and saluted.

This bastard! Li Zhi smiled coldly and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite happy here." He walked over and glanced at the table. There was wine and meat. Life was really enjoyable. He said, "I really didn't expect that my Tang Dynasty was so rich that the prisoner's meal was better than my imperial meal."

"Uh, it's impossible!"

"You still dare to talk back?"

"I know the crime! I know the crime!" Han Yi scolded Li Jie in his heart. In fact, it was not time for dinner. Li Jie suddenly asked someone to bring the food, including chickens, fish, and a pot of fine wine. He originally thought that Li Jie was kind-hearted, but it turned out to be plotting against him. This was really abominable, so he hurriedly shouted injustice: "Your Majesty, all this is an illusion."

Li Zhi was so angry that he said, "Illusion? Are the chicken legs in your hand made of mud?"

"Uh!" Han Yi looked at the chicken legs in his hand, sweating profusely, and said, "Report to Your Majesty, this is the matter. Before that, Weichen discussed with Sikong. Weichen spent two days of meal to pay for this meal. After Weichen had eaten this meal, he had to be hungry for two days. Your Majesty must not be confused by the chicken legs. In fact, Weichen's life is quite bitter."

"Yeah?"

Li Zhi smiled, sat down, suddenly patted the table heavily, and with a bang, Long Yan said furiously: "Do you know how big a mess you have caused me? I was so angry that I haven't had a good sleep for several days. I'm sorry you can still eat."

Han Yi's eyes turned and said, "Your Majesty, I can't eat it either, so I just starved for two days and use my physical needs to overcome my inner guilt."

"you--!"

Li Zhi scolded angrily: "Your mouth is really disgusting."

When I make you happy, why don’t you say that? Forget it, you are the emperor, I don’t care about you as much as you. Han Yi was silent.

Li Zhi frowned and said, "Why don't you talk anymore?"

Han Yi said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty hates Wei's mouth, Wei's mouth dare not open his mouth."

"You kid is trying to get along with me."

"I don't dare."

"There are other things you dare not dare to do." Li Zhi snorted: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have promised you at the beginning. Do you know how serious this matter is?"

"I don't want to do it either!"

Han Yi said pitifully.

"Don't pretend to be wronged with me here."

Li Zhi snorted and said, "You kid has always been good at calculating and deliberately made this matter very serious, which has led to everyone's own danger, suspicion of each other, and dare not act rashly. Now everything is like you are calculating. Many ministers in the court have begun to speak for you. You are really famous now and are full of the limelight!"

Han Yi was delighted when he heard this, just like you know, I am the leader of a poor family now.

Li Zhi glanced at him and said, "But don't be too proud too early. I haven't decided how to judge you yet. Now I have to know how you plan to end. Now the poor scholars are all confused by you, and the hatred of the gentry is getting higher and higher. Both sides are already incompatible. But you have to understand that most of the important officials in the court are from gentry. If the people hate the officials of the court, how can I manage the world? Do you want me to depose all these important officials? Then who will help me govern the country? But if I don't let you go out, it will arouse public anger. I won't be striking around with you now. If you can't accept this, you will stay here. No, I will send you to Dali Temple and be locked up with those death row prisoners. You are making things difficult for me now, and I will never let you have a good time."

"Death-inmate?"

Han Yi took a deep breath of air conditioning, and a picture of the chrysanthemums falling into his mind.

Li Zhi affirmed: "Not bad! Death prisoner."

Han Yi scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty, have you ever heard a sentence that you can live in death?"

Li Zhi snorted: "So what if I heard it?"

Just ask, is it necessary to get angry? Han Yi said: "Weicheng is not trying to completely eliminate the gentry. Weicheng knows that this is impossible. Weicheng does not have this ability. Weicheng just wants to suppress the arrogant arrogance of the gentry, pave the way for the court to raise the spirit of wise men, so that Your Majesty can recruit more talents, and make our Tang Dynasty stronger. Weicheng just wants to force the gentry into a dead end, so that they will realize that the world has changed. If they still think they are living in the Wei and Jin dynasties, then they are very wrong."

Li Zhi snorted: "I don't want to listen to your nonsense now. I just want to know how you end up?"

Although it is beneficial to him to fight against the common people, the problem is that they cannot always fight like this. Sooner or later, there will be problems. Now Li Zhi's goal has also been achieved. The problem now lies in how to calm the anger of the people.

Han Yi said: "But the key to breaking the deadlock is not in the weal ministers, but in the hands of the gentry."

Li Zhi said in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Han Yi said: "What Weichen means is that Weichen has no way to stop it. Only the Shandong gentry themselves can save all this."

Li Zhi said: "You are not lying to me, are you?"

"How dare I deceive Your Majesty?"

"You're a bastard!"

Li Zhi suddenly stood up and said angrily: "I thought you had a way to accept this incident, but I didn't expect you to tell me that you had no choice. You--don't think that I dare not act like this, I can tell you that if this matter cannot be resolved perfectly, I can only use you to calm the anger, and you have no joke."

This matter is already at its limit to this point. If it continues to cause trouble and affects the local area, it may completely lose control, and Hou Jing's rebellion may happen again.

Therefore, when Li Zhi saw that Han Yi was so irresponsible, he was really angry.

Han Yi hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as your Majesty will let me go, someone will naturally come forward to settle the matter. Moreover, the Weishi dares to use his life to guarantee it. The result of this matter, Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty will definitely be the biggest beneficiaries."

Li Zhi glanced at Han Yi suspiciously and said, "Who are you talking about?"

Han Yi said: "This is a wee minister. I can't say it yet, but I'd like to ask Your Majesty to believe me again."

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "Okay! I will trust you again."
Chapter completed!
