The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 893: Political Discussion in Chengqing Palace (Part )
Li Shimin reacted and quickly stepped forward, pulling Li Jing back, then slowly said: "Brother Jing, don't worry, this matter is not what you think. To be honest, this matter is really difficult to talk about, and it is not worth telling to outsiders."

"Among the officials in Chang'an, no one knows except Xuanling."

Li Shimin pressed Li Jing to sit on the brocade cushion in front of the imperial desk, then he returned to the back of the desk and looked at Fang Xuanling.

Only then did Fang Xuanling reveal the true identity of the Right Wise King.

When Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Li Jing was stunned. He was also shocked by the sudden news. Then he asked in disbelief, "This Right Xianwang is called Li Yan. Is he the eldest son of Prince Yin?"

"How is this possible? Who said that?"

Li Shimin pulled out a piece of letter from the imperial desk, which was sent by Zhangsun Wuji half a year ago. He walked to Li Jing and handed it to him: "Brother Jing, take a look. This is the news that Fu Ji got from Liaodong. It was said by Jie Li himself."

After Li Jing finished reading it hastily, Li Shimin sighed deeply and said, "At that time, I was also wavering between trying to win over or attack the Right Wise King, but the news that the auxiliary machine found out made me make up my mind. What the Right Wise King wants is the whole world!"

"I cannot leave this hidden danger to the Tang Dynasty, so I would rather bear the name of injustice and eliminate this trouble for the Tang Dynasty."

Fang Xuanling was also somewhat depressed: "Duke Weiguo, don't blame your Majesty. At that time, I also advised your Majesty to act decisively, which led to the siege of Liaodong City. It was only later that the Marquis concentrated on the plan of the Right Wise King, which led to the failure of the plan."

Li Jing read it silently and thought to himself, no wonder His Majesty kept this matter secret and didn't tell anyone, this really cannot be known to outsiders, otherwise the people of the Tang Dynasty will be in chaos. You know, there are still many people in the court who used to be people of the old East Palace?
I once watched from the sidelines when Your Majesty was in the Xuanwu Gate Incident, so it's no wonder that Your Majesty kept it from me.

However, Li Jing's stance was relatively detached. Unlike Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling, who were both subjective, he applied this inside story to the Liaodong incident a year ago and reviewed everything again. He immediately discovered many doubts.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask, in addition to the clue of Zhangsun Wuji, is there any other evidence to support the fact that the Right Wise Prince is the eldest son of the Hidden Crown Prince?"

Li Shimin was startled, and subconsciously said: "This is what Jie Li said himself, how could it be false? The time and timing of the Right Wise King's appearance on the grassland, as well as his age, are all very reasonable and there are no flaws. Could it be that Jie Li is deceiving us?"

"Jie Li wanted to get rid of the Right Wise King in order to eliminate the hidden danger for his son, and we got rid of the Right Wise King to prevent him from causing trouble in the Central Plains in the future. His true identity is not important, and there is no need for Jie Li to do this, right?"

"Even if this person is not the son of Crown Prince Yin, we will still take action."

Li Jing had a look of astonishment and smiled calmly: "If I am not mistaken, after the emperor learned of this news, he must have sent people to Taiyuan to conduct a detailed investigation, but there was no trace, right?"

After Li Jing said this, Li Shimin looked surprised and his face turned cold.

At the beginning, he was worried and wanted to wipe out the root of the problem as soon as possible. Later, Li Shimin sent the Jinyiwei and the Baiqisi to Taiyuan to investigate, but there was indeed no trace of the suspect. Li Shimin just thought that the other party's identity was too insignificant at the time and did not attract people's attention.

Now after Li Jing asked, he also realized that there was a problem.

Even Fang Xuanling frowned and pondered: "Duke Wei, do you mean that this Right Wise Prince is not necessarily the heir of Crown Prince Yin?"

"If my guess is correct, the identity of the son of Prince Yin must be fake?" Li Jing said decisively.

Li Shimin's expression became excited: "Brother Jing, why do you say that?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know that I have been dealing with the Turks for my entire life and I know the details of the Turks' internal affairs."

Li Jing stroked his beard leisurely and said with a smile: "After defeating Jie Li's tent in the Dingxiang Campaign, the soldiers under my command captured several people who claimed to be members of the Li royal family. Among them were the sons of Li Yuan, the Prince of Lujiang, who had rebelled, Li Xiaochang, the Prince of Yi'an, and Li Youliang, the Prince of Changle."

"As for those who claim to be Luo Yi, Xue Shixiong, or even relatives of the former Sui Yang royal family, there are many."

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were both puzzled. It was the first time they heard of such a thing and they asked about it in detail.

Li Jing smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly: "The world is in chaos. Every time the imperial power changes, countless wealthy families who stand on the wrong side are destroyed. Those distant relatives of the noble families can draw a clear line, but those who are directly implicated have no place to stay in the Central Plains. Many people ran to the Turks to seek refuge."

"With so many people going there, naturally some people will use these signs to cheat people in Turkic and eat and drink for free."

"The Turks don't know it, so how can they tell the real from the fake?"

"At first, Jie Li accepted everyone who came. Later, as more and more people came, Jie Li became annoyed. Sheltering is a small matter. The key is that it is a waste of food and grass to support these people. After a long time, except for some key people who are useful, other people are not accepted." "These people dare not return to the Central Plains, so they cling to Jie Li desperately. Last time the Khan's tent was broken, Jie Li fled in a hurry, and these people fell into the hands of my Tang soldiers. At first, the people below thought it was a credit."

"But I've tried so many people that I've become numb to them. They've reported to me, and since all of them are guilty of capital crimes, I'll execute them on the spot regardless of whether they're true or false."

It was the first time that Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling knew these details. They stared at each other for a long time with ugly expressions. Finally, the corners of their mouths twitched uncontrollably. They asked with a smile, "Brother Jing, why have I never heard you say this before?"

"These are all dirty and filthy things. I am afraid of offending the emperor, so I will not say anything more."

Fang Xuanling's face was dark and full of annoyance. He also understood what Li Jing meant: "Duke Wei, you mean that the so-called identity of the Right Wise King as the son of the Crown Prince Yin is also fake. Jie Li and we have been deceived?"

"That's probably the case. As more people go to the Turks to rely on them, their value will be greatly reduced."

Li Jing said calmly, "By the fourth year of Zhenguan, the identities of former Sui royal family members, former dynasty generals, and descendants of the rebellious prince Li were no longer popular among Jie Li. If there were some daring people who pretended to be the eldest son of Prince Yin, it would not be impossible."

"After all, this identity still has some value. Jie Li can be used as a puppet to prepare for the cholera Tang Dynasty."

"I think Jie Li also intends to play this card after defeating Your Majesty in Dingxiang."

"After that great defeat, he himself almost became a prisoner, so he was naturally no longer useful. But I didn't expect that after the great changes in the grassland, this man had some luck. With a series of opportunities, he not only managed to get the position of Right Wise King."

"He also took over the power of the entire Turkic Khanate from Jie Li. He really should not be underestimated!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin's face turned green and red, and he was furious. He shouted angrily, "Assholes, really assholes. These daring villains not only betrayed their master and helped the tyrant, but they even dared to cheat people in the name of the descendants of the Li royal family."

"This is outrageous. If these people fall into my hands, I will definitely cut them into pieces and torture them to death as an example to others."

Li Shimin was venting his inner frustration angrily in the hall. A small liar actually deceived the emperor and his ministers of the Tang Dynasty. He took it so seriously and acted as if he was in deep trouble. He didn't expect that it would turn out to be a mistake in the end.

Tian Khan was a little embarrassed and had to use his temper to hide his inner shame.

After hearing Li Jing's story, Fang Xuanling's face turned slightly red, but with Li Shimin in front of him, he didn't care. Instead, he seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden from his heart. He said in a relaxed manner: "It seems that we are all confused by the authorities. We have been affected by the old incident of Prince Yin and are a little paranoid."

"It seems that this Right Wise King might really be a 'liar'?"

Li Jing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, think about it. If Prince Yin really had a child before the rebellion, how could he not leave any traces? Just like a swallow leaves its sound when it flies by, a mouse running across the snow must also leave some footprints, right?"

"Forget about the Crown Prince Yin, but who is the woman? She has to show up if she lives in Taiyuan, right?"

"With the power and authority held by an emperor, even a beggar who occasionally appeared on the streets of Taiyuan 20 years ago could be investigated. A weak woman must survive, live with her neighbors, and have food, clothing, and daily life. How could she not reveal any traces?"

Fang Xuanling also chimed in, "Unless this mother and son never existed."

"Yes, in my opinion, this Right Wise King was probably not an important figure before."

Li Jing analyzed with concentration: "Maybe it has nothing to do with Crown Prince Yin, but is just some insignificant little person, at most the family of some minor officials who were implicated?"

"Your Majesty, think about it. This man has been stranded on the grasslands. In order to survive, he must have proved his worth. Ten years ago, he was only in his teens. Leaving his hometown, he wanted to have an easy life. He had no choice but to muster up the courage to make up this lie. He also wanted Jie Li to look up to him."

"How important is the status of the eldest son of the Crown Prince Keyin? How could Jie Li listen to his words?"

"We must find someone to verify it. If there are guards, servants, family members, etc. around this child, he will be exposed immediately. Everyone in the world knows that several children of Prince Yin died in Xuanwu Gate. He can only say that he is an unknown illegitimate child."

"That's good now. There is no evidence. No one knows him. Even if there are some relatives who are against the king, they can't verify it."

"Perhaps Jie Li just needed this card at the time. Since no one exposed his words, Jie Li just went with the flow. We are all in a higher position. We should know that the authenticity of his identity is not important at all. What is important is that as long as there is support from a powerful force, the fake one will also be real."
