The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 835

Hu Yan's death, though not a national tragedy, was a cause for national mourning.

But most of the officials who were friendly with him were heartbroken.

Xu Tian did not return to his residence until after Hu Yan's funeral was over.

He is in a bad mood.

He locked himself in the study.

He knew that Hu Yan was a rare and excellent official.

Yet, such a person has fallen.

But those who are utterly wicked remain unscathed.

"Pine Nut, have you found out yet?"

Immediately after Hu Yan's incident, he sent Song Ren out to investigate.

Songren replied.

"I found out that Lord Hu only met with the Fifth Prince that day. Moreover, according to the people in the restaurant, it ended on a sour note."

Xu Tian narrowed his eyes and instantly understood what was going on.

Li You is trying to win people over everywhere, wanting them to follow him.

Even he himself couldn't avoid it.

Moreover, during these assassination attempts, he suspected that Li You was responsible.

He now suspects that Li You was behind Hu Yan's assassination.

"Don't leak this information if there's no solid evidence."

Song Ren accepted the order.

"Don't let your guard down, continue the investigation."

Song Ren accepted the order.

Hu Qin was restless while staying at the border; how could he be content with that?

He had to go back, he had to return to that dazzling and decadent Chang'an.

He wanted to kill Xu Tian to avenge himself.

When he left, Hu Yan bribed Gao Liang, the manager here, with real money.

"I don't need anything else, just deliver this letter to the Fifth Prince, and remember to make sure it reaches the Fifth Prince."

I think this matter is far too simple.

Hu Qin asked him to deliver a letter to him, and he gave him so much money.

He was naturally happy to do it.

So I readily agreed.

"Your Highness, rest assured, this humble general will definitely deliver this letter to the Fifth Prince."

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

Gao Liang has always understood this principle.

Although Hu Qin has now been demoted.

But he knew that Hu Qin would definitely go back one day.

Because he has the ability.

"If Your Highness is ever able to return, please do not forget your subordinate."

Actually, these people are in charge of management here.

Before that, he was transferred here.

They, too, were determined to go back, to return to Chang'an.

Hu Qin made a promise to Gao Liang right away.

"Don't worry, as long as I can return, I will never forget you."

He is now convinced that he can go back.

As long as Li You can make arrangements in Chang'an, he will be able to return to Chang'an smoothly.

Sure enough, after receiving Hu Qin's letter, Li You immediately sent someone to make arrangements.

He needs people right now.

All kinds of people should be brought under one's control.

In the end, Li You racked his brains to arrange for Hu Qin to return to the capital as a distant cousin and continue his work.

Of course, those in the imperial court weren't fools either.

Don't they recognize them?

However, because Li You has almost completely taken control of half of the country.

As a result, all the ministers turned a blind eye.

None of them wanted to offend Li You.

In the imperial court, Li Chengqian disagreed at all.

That person is Hu Qin!

He was a criminal official who had just been escorted to the frontier by his father, the emperor.

But just a few days later, Li You brazenly brought the person back.

This is utterly outrageous.

"I absolutely cannot agree to this."
