Chapter 125 Who is the whistleblower
In the afternoon, Li Dai came back from court, went directly to Changlefang, and found Li Ye.

The father and son sat down in a small tavern, and Li Dai said anxiously, "Ye'er, you'd better not go out these two days!"

"Because of Li Xun?"

Li Dai nodded, "The county government is still looking for the murderer. There is no clue yet, but I feel that their next target is you. You'd better not go out. When the county government finds the murderer, it's not too late for you to go out again!"

"But father clearly knew that Li Min was the one who bought the murder!"

Li Dai helplessly spread his hands and said, "So what can we do if we know, there is no evidence, he just denied it, saying that he is not in Chang'an, so there is no way to testify against him!"

Li Ye said lightly: "Father should tell grandfather about this, and let grandfather uphold justice!"

Li Dai sighed and said: "Your grandfather has only one way to uphold justice. Take away all the restaurants and inns. 'Without interests, there will be no disputes', this is his mantra, so when this kind of thing happened, everyone privately Solve it, so your grandfather won't be alarmed!"

"That's easy, break the legs of Li Min's three sons, use violence to control violence, and see who cries in the end!"

"This won't work. Once your grandfather finds out, the consequences will be disastrous. As I said just now, the key is that we have no evidence to prove that it was your fourth uncle who did it."

Li Ye said calmly: "I will find evidence!"

After a pause, Li Ye said again: "Back then, my father fought against Concubine Wu Hui and offended Concubine Wu Hui. If I'm right, it must have something to do with Li Min!"

The son suddenly mentioned the past 14 years ago, and Li Dai's expression immediately became unnatural.

After a long time, he sighed and said, "The past is over, why mention him?"

"Father really didn't use the slightest bit of defense!"

Li Ye shook his head and said: "Wai Lang, a member of the household department, was originally his position, but he was robbed by his father. He will swallow this breath? There is also the previous arson case in the household department, which testified that his father was usually addicted to illusion, but there are three family members' testimonies , besides Yu Wenluo and Li Huai, who else is there?
Father thinks that he dealt with the three juniors only for the benefit of restaurants and inns? "

Li Dai was shocked, "Does he have other plans?"

Li Ye nodded, "There was a beating incident when he went to Spring Hunting, so he naturally cleared up the suspicion. If someone cut off a hand or a foot again, it has nothing to do with him. Clean up Li Xun and the other three. It's false, it's true to deal with me!"

Li Dai couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and walked a few steps: "It's so crazy, I want to tell your grandfather, this kind of thing will never be allowed to happen!"

Li Ye sneered and said, "Telling grandfather now is tantamount to scaring the snake, and then I will really be defenseless. My father just needs to tell me, was it Li Min who framed my father 14 years ago?"

Li Dai sighed for a long while and said: "I only found out later that he had bribed Concubine Wu Hui's confidants and set up a game of robbing the women. It happened down there."

This incident changed Li Dai's life. Speaking of it now, he is still full of resentment.

Li Ye nodded, "Father don't care about this matter. With my martial arts, no one can hurt me. I believe I will handle this matter well."

Li Dai looked at his son for a while, then said helplessly, "I only have one request, not to kill anyone. I don't care if they die, but I am worried that you will cause trouble."

Today is the first sunrise after Spring Hunting, with a lot of business, Li Linfu came home a little late.

In the carriage, Li Linfu looked serious, and something made him quite worried.

In the afternoon, he met Gao Lishi, and Gao Lishi congratulated his grandson Li Ye for winning the Spring Hunting No.2 with the Cheng family.

Who is Li Linfu? He immediately understood Gao Lishi's hint that his grandson was too close to the Cheng family. The Cheng family is an important figure in the East Palace faction. His grandson and the Cheng family were too close to make the emperor doubt him. There is collusion with the prince.

Ye'er must be reminded of this matter not to associate with the Cheng family again.

But Li Linfu found it a little strange that if they just hunted together, it didn't mean anything. Maybe his grandson and Cheng Changyin were classmates, and it was normal to hunt together.

The emperor will not doubt himself based on such a trivial matter, and Gao Lishi has no need to hint at himself.

The reason why Gao Lishi reminded himself was that this matter was a bit serious. Could it be that someone deliberately made a fuss about this matter?
Li Linfu's years of political intuition told him that someone must have used this matter to make a fuss, making the emperor suspect that he had colluded with the prince.

The carriage quickly drove into Pingkangfang and stopped slowly in front of the Xiangguo Mansion. Li Linfu told his confidant guard Wang Kuan: "Go and bring 48 Lang to see me!"

"Follow the order!"

Wang Kuan hurried away.

Li Linfu went back to the study and sat down, waved to his concubine and said, "Dinner will be served later!"

Not long after, the housekeeper said at the door: "Master, Lang 48 is here!"

"Please come in!"

After a while, Li Ye walked into the study, saluted and said: "Grandson pays respects to grandfather!"

"Sit down!"

Li Linfu smiled and asked Li Ye to sit down, and asked, "How are you resting today?"

"Thank you grandpa for your concern, I had a good rest today."

"Any considerations for the next step?"

Li Ye pondered for a while and said, "Sun'er doesn't want to go to the county school anymore, Sun'er is still thinking about what to do next."

Li Linfu nodded, "How did you meet the Cheng family?"

"Reporting to my grandfather, my grandson bought two incense burners and a weapon from the blacksmith shop in Yonghefang, and found that they belonged to the Cheng family, so my grandson returned them to the Cheng family. The Cheng family was very grateful, and we got to know each other like this."

"It's that simple?"

Li Ye nodded, "Chunshou is the second time my grandson has been with the Cheng family!"

Li Linfu frowned and said, "Gao Lishi reminded me today that you had a close relationship with the Cheng family, because the Cheng family belongs to the prince's faction, and you are my grandson, so someone with a heart will associate me with the prince, do you understand?"

"Isn't it normal for the prime minister to support the prince?"

Li Linfu smiled wryly and said: "The crown prince has always been the emperor's political enemy, especially in the Tang Dynasty. There was the Xuanwumen incident before, and after Ruizong was forced to abdicate, the emperor guarded his son like a thief.

Everyone criticizes me, Li Linfu, for not saving the former crown prince, Li Ying. Li Ying's three brothers and his brother-in-law, Xue Ruo, led troops into the palace in armor and kept saying "save him."
If they didn't plan in advance, how could they do one thing at the same time?

From Wu Zetian to Empress Wei, to Princess Taiping, and then to Ruizong's abdication, there are so many precedents of successful coups, will the three brothers of Li Ying follow suit?

The three of Li Ying also wanted to launch a palace coup, kill Concubine Wu Hui, and force the emperor, but they failed. In my opinion, the current prince will rise to power in a coup sooner or later. This is a tradition in their family. "

Li Ye nodded secretly. His grandfather saw it very clearly. In history, Prince Li Heng colluded with Chen Xuanli to launch a coup in Maweipo, forcing Li Longji to abdicate. After receiving the edict of abdication, Prince Li Heng went to Shuofang to officially become emperor.

"Grandson understands, but this whistleblower is terrible. Has grandfather ever considered that this is actually the same person as the whistleblower from the ancestral hall?"

 The Maweipo change was a coup launched by Prince Li Heng in collusion with General Chen Xuanli.

  The final result must have been to force Li Longji to write down the edict of abdication, acknowledging the crown prince's ascension to the throne, and Prince Li Hengcai took the abdication edict to Shuofang to ascend the throne as emperor.

  Without this edict of abdication, Prince Li Heng could legally ascend the throne, otherwise he could only be the prince supervising the country, but not ascend the throne.
