Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Royal study room.

Wang Jinghui, who was about to go on an expedition, walked in under the guidance of Ma Rong. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Cunxi kneeling on a cushion with three cups of hot tea on the small table in front of him.

This scene made Wang Jinghui feel something was wrong. He was going to go to war in three days, and the emperor called him over tonight. Something must have happened!

Ma Rong bowed and said, "Your Majesty, General Wang has arrived."

"There is no His Majesty here tonight. Only a younger brother wants to have a few heartfelt words with his elder brother."

Li Cunxi took a sip of tea and it was really hot.

Wang Jinghui was overwhelmed and didn't want to respond at all.

But since he was here, he had to know what Li Cunxi needed him to do.

He was not one to waste time, so he took brisk steps, stood opposite Li Cunxi, and bowed.

"Emperor, I'm here."

"We're so unfamiliar..." Li Cunxi patted the soft cushion on the side, "Arong, you sit down too."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ma Rong sat down obediently.

Li Cunxi raised his eyes to glance at Wang Jinghui, raised his teacup and took another sip.

Lu Yu, known as the Tea Saint in later generations, had not yet been born at this time, and the tea of ​​this era was still much inferior to that of later generations.

The tea was very ordinary, and it was normal that he didn't want to drink it, but this was what he had to use when entertaining others.

Forcing himself to take another sip, he looked at Wang Jinghui and said:

"Brother Jinghui, I came to you tonight because I want to say a few words from my heart."

"Among all the civil and military officials in the court, the two I value most are Yan Hao and you."

"Since I ascended the throne, over the past two years, the only person who still doesn't treat me as the emperor is Yan Hao. Although he is occasionally disrespectful, it is within my expectations."

"And you...you don't even consider me the emperor."

"You became so cautious when you saw I needed your help. I can't possibly cheat you, can I?"

Wang Jinghui's tense nerves immediately relaxed.

He bowed towards Li Cunxi and said, "It's not that I'm cautious, it's really you, Cunxi... No, it's you, Your Majesty, who are too cruel."

Li Cunxi couldn't help but laugh: "I have a bad heart?"

Wang Jinghui quickly lowered his head and took two sips of tea.

Wang Jinghui has followed Li Cunxi for several years. Since the Bleeding Eagle case, he has been by Li Cunxi's side. He knows very well what kind of person Li Cunxi is.

If Li Cunxi is not a black-hearted person, then there are few people who are.

Look at how that case was solved!

"Brother Jinghui, why do you always look at me with the same old eyes?"

"You are my brother, you have to help me!"

He reached out and gently patted Wang Jinghui's shoulder.

"This time, you will follow Xiang Zhou to attack the Japanese island. Xiang Zhou is an upright person, and there are some things he may not do."

"So, when he's unwilling, or doesn't want to do it, you, my brother, should help me."

"How to help, Brother Jinghui, you know."

"I need you to do the thing that you care least about."

Li Cunxi winked at the back, and Long Feng immediately walked out from the shadows, holding a sword in both hands and handed it to Wang Jinghui.

"The Orchid Sword and the Tiger's Crouching Sword, two peerless divine weapons, now belong to Brother Jinghui."

Touching the familiar hilt of the Youlan Sword, Wang Jinghui already knew what Li Cunxi needed him to do.

And what Li Cunxi said was not wrong. That was exactly what Wang Jinghui cared about the least.

"You said I was your brother, so I'm going to kill you."

"But, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to handle things in the court."

Wang Jinghui grinned, with a hint of madness in his smile.

"Whoever dares to impeach you, I will make him suffer." Li Cunxi said lightly.

"Okay, now that you say that, I feel relieved!"

Wang Jinghui rubbed his hands and said, "I heard that Japan also has a royal family. I won't be polite!"

"Go ahead and kill. No one in the court will oppose you."

"What if my father is against me?"

"My uncle won't object to you. I've already sent people to the coastal counties to escort you."

"What do you mean?"

"After you leave, within two weeks at most, the coastal counties will report the Japanese rebellion. No one will impeach you then... If someone does impeach you, I will keep my word and make sure they are not comfortable."

Wang Jinghui felt very comfortable: "Is there anything else?"

"almost."

"Huh, I thought it was something else, but I got a shock!" Wang Jinghui drank the tea in the cup in front of him in one gulp. "Why didn't you just tell me earlier that you wanted me to kill as many people as I wanted?! You're not trying to embarrass me, you're clearly rewarding me!"

"I'll have the palace send you some things someday. Your Duke of E's mansion has quite a few servants, and I'm afraid your salary alone won't be enough to cover the annual expenses."

"That's not necessary. Qingxia came with a generous dowry after she got married."

"I'm sending something to my brother, do you dare to refuse it?"

"Then I'll take it."

"By the way, I heard that Si Chen has been sick these days?"

Wang Jinghui nodded: "It's just a minor illness, it will be fine in two days."

Wang Jinghui's eldest son, Wang Sichen, is over one year old this year. Wang Jinghui had a son in his middle age and loves him very much.

Now he seems like nothing is wrong, but in fact he was watching over his son's bed before he came.

Li Cunxi rubbed his fingertips and said, "Let's ask the imperial physician to take a look tomorrow. I hope there's nothing unexpected going on."

"Furthermore..."

He suddenly smiled and asked, "Are there any ministers in the court who want to become your relatives?"

"Yes, but I rejected them all. My son is still young, and when I choose a relative, I also have to consider the girl's character," said Wang Jinghui.

"That's right. Si Chen is still young and shouldn't be too hasty." Li Cunxi said.

"I think you have bad intentions."

"How about I marry my eldest daughter to your son?"

"Is this really okay?" Wang Jinghui felt a little embarrassed.

"Just tell me whether you are willing or not?" Li Cunxi urged.

Wang Jinghui: "Of course I would like to be your majesty's in-law. When will your eldest daughter be born?"

……

A moment later, Ma Rong saw Wang Jinghui off and came back, standing aside.

Li Cunxi yawned and then looked at a map hanging behind him.

That map is the current map of Datang and its surrounding areas.

Goguryeo, which should have perished during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, is still listed on the list. This is also one of the bugs in this world view.

However, in the south of Goguryeo, Silla and Baekje had quietly risen.

If this vast territory is conquered and Tubo is completely pacified, the largest territory of China will appear.

At present, the Tang Dynasty only needs to conquer Tubo to complete the task, and the future is promising.

"Your Majesty, it's time to rest."

Ma Rong advised in a low voice.

"There's no court meeting tomorrow, so don't worry... Ah Rong, you're already 39 this year. If you don't have any more children, you'll end up like Brother Jinghui."

Ma Rong laughed dryly twice and pretended not to hear anything.

I'm afraid only his wife Lu Xiaofeng knows how hard he works in this regard.

But my belly is not cooperating and I haven’t gotten pregnant yet.

"Never mind, escort me to Yiluan Palace."

"I'm afraid the Queen is still waiting for me to come over."
