The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1055

At this moment, there were not only a few ministers in the imperial study, but also several princes.

Li Zhi turned around and looked down at the princes below, each with their own ulterior motives.

"Remember this matter, and make sure to investigate it thoroughly."

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.

In the end, only Xu Tian remained here.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the attempt to sow discord has succeeded."

Xu Tian smiled softly.

The father-in-law behind him brought out a chair for him to sit down.

Every day they did this: after everyone else had left, the emperor would have a chair brought out, and the two of them would sit down and have a long talk.

"It seems he's already fallen into this trap; I don't believe he'll easily slip out."

Li Zhi spoke in a cold tone.

They had already cast this net long ago.

I'm not afraid; Li Yuan won't jump in.

Anyone who covets this position will jump in.

Take Xun Qinwang, for example.

To say that he had no thoughts at all would be completely impossible.

Upon hearing that Li Zhi would pass the throne to him, he became extremely eager to serve.

His true colors weren't as obvious as Li Yuan's.

"Our only task now is to keep them calm."

"If we really can't hold on, then we'll have no choice but to take it down."

Xu Tian's tone was devoid of any emotion.

Even his eyes showed no expression whatsoever.

He coldly gripped his sword.

This time, he will definitely not let Li Yuan escape.

A day later, Xun Qinwang sent people to investigate and found evidence of Li Yuan's rebellion, which was then presented to Li Zhi.

"Your Majesty, please take a look." Xun Qinwang respectfully presented all the evidence.

When Xu Tian looked at this prince, he raised an eyebrow slightly.

He managed to gather all the evidence in just one day.

This is enough to prove just how powerful he was in Chang'an.

Therefore, not only Li Yuan, but also Xun Qinwang and the others cannot be underestimated.

Li Zhi and Xu Tian exchanged a glance, and then issued an imperial edict ordering Li Yuan to enter the palace.

After a day of rest, Li Yuan is feeling much better.

From being pale at the beginning, his face is now full of color.

Upon seeing this, his subordinates exclaimed in admiration that the imperial physician's medicine was indeed a miraculous cure.

Li Yuan had just woken up when people from the palace arrived.

"Eunuch Zhao, as you know, our Prince is still very weak. If we were to send him to the palace now, it might..."

Li Yuan's trusted subordinates appeared to be in a very difficult position.

However, the eunuch in front of him was unwilling to agree to prevent Li Yuan from entering the palace.

You must know, this was an imperial edict sent down by the Emperor.

If he doesn't handle this matter well, he will be the one punished when he gets back.

Li Yuan's men immediately slipped a large sum of money to his father-in-law.

The father-in-law looked around, and finally reluctantly stuffed the silver into his sleeve.

The head guard said again:
