Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

Guo Daizhao came to Guo Xiaoke's study with the letter from Wang Hongfu.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke had a serious look on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

He raised his head when he heard Guo Daizhao coming in.

"Dai Zhao, you are right. We cannot let them return to Chang'an, otherwise our Guo family will be doomed."

Looking at his son, Guo Xiaoke finally made up his mind.

"Aye is right. I didn't expect Wang Hongfu to act so quickly. I thought they had just arrived in Xizhou.

Who would have thought that he had already captured Wang Wencheng and all his accomplices.

But from what he said just now, Wang Wencheng did not give you up, Aye."

Guo Xiaoke frowned and thought for a while.

“It’s hard to say, Wang Hongfu may not be telling the truth.

I always feel that the question he just asked has a hidden meaning.”

Just now when Wang Hongfu asked him if he knew about it, it was his son who explained it to him, but he felt like Wang Hongfu asked this on purpose.

"Father, no matter whether he knows or not, and no matter whether Wang Wencheng has explained it or not, as long as they are not allowed to go to Chang'an, Prince Ji will not know."

Guo Daizhao smiled slightly.

"You're right. You go and arrange it yourself. Make it a treasonous attack. Be careful not to be seen."

Guo Xiaoke was very satisfied with his son, who was decisive in doing things without being fussy about details when doing great things.

"Yes, by the way, this is the letter that Wang Hongfu asked me to give to my father before he left. He said that it was given to my father by Prince Ji."

Only then did Guo Daizhao remember the letter in his hand.

"A letter from Prince Ji?"

Guo Xiaoke was a little surprised. He had no contact with Prince Ji. He had only seen Prince Ji a few times when he was in the capital, but they had no intersection.

What letter did Prince Ji write to him? Was it to ask him to take care of Wang Hongfu? That should be the case.

Guo Xiaoke felt amused when he thought about this. He was already planning to kill Wang Hongfu, so what use would this letter be?

But when he opened the letter and looked at it carefully, his face changed instantly.

He sat down on the chair with a dazed look on his face.

"Aye, what's wrong?"

Seeing his father's expression, Guo Daizhao hurried forward to ask.

"Ji...King Ji knows."

Guo Xiaoke murmured blankly.

"What did Prince Ji know?"

Guo Daizhao was still a little confused. He took the letter from Guo Xiaoke's hand and took a look at it.

Then he was as shocked as his father.

The first line of words on the letter paper was: I heard that you took my money?

The second row of words is: Return it to this king.

Then there is a big seal of the Prince Ji’s Mansion.

"Aye, this... this is... written by Prince Ji? Could it be that Wang Hongfu is cheating us?"

Guo Daizhao asked blankly.

Guo Xiaoke nodded:

“Yes, this is Prince Ji’s handwriting. It is said that Prince Ji’s handwriting has been extremely ugly since he was a child, and he has his own style.

No one has been able to imitate it so far.

Because the strokes used by King Ji were different every time he wrote, and the size of the strokes varied, even if he wrote the same word twice, it would be different.

When my father was the Minister of the Imperial Household, I often heard people mention this matter. "

After hearing this, Guo Daizhao took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case. Although there were only a few words, no single word was the same size.

"Wai Zhao, let's forget about what just happened. It will be useless even if we kill all of Wang Hongfu and his men.

Prince Ji must have known about what happened between us and Wang Wencheng.

Otherwise, Prince Ji would not have written the letter in advance."

Guo Xiaoke was a little depressed. Killing people was pointless now as Prince Ji already knew about their affairs.

Now we need to think about how to solve it.

Guo Daizhao was also lost in thought.

Guo Xiaoke took the letter written by Prince Ji and stared at the words intently.

He was wondering what King Ji meant.

"Aye, I think even if Prince Ji knew, he wouldn't report it. Aye is a founding hero after all.

Moreover, Aye was the Protector General of Anxi and the Governor of Xizhou, and their Ji Palace had a large cotton industry in Xizhou.

Isn't he afraid of making things difficult for us?

"Aye just took some money, even if His Majesty knew, you wouldn't blame him too much, right?"

Guo Daizhao said that he always believed that his father had worked hard and made great contributions, and had followed His Majesty in battles across the country, and was no less than the military generals in the court.

Your Majesty personally conferred the title of Duke of Yangdi on him and appointed him as the Supreme Pillar of the State.

Guo Xiaoke snorted after hearing what his son said.

"Humph, what do you know? If it were someone else, I wouldn't be afraid, but Prince Ji is different from others."

"How is it different? Isn't it just that he is favored by His Majesty? He has no power or influence. He has never been in the court."

Guo Daizhao was somewhat dissatisfied.

Guo Xiaoke was a little angry.

"You...what have you been doing in Chang'an City these years?

Even your father knows Prince Ji's reputation in Chang'an City, you have been in Chang'an City for so many years, but you still don't know Prince Ji.

Is that all you know how to do?"

"Don't be angry, I was wrong."

Guo Xiaoke snorted in anger and said:

"Humph, Prince Ji has such a bad reputation in Chang'an City, and he is tyrannical, but no one dares to offend him. Do you think no one dares to intervene?

Let me tell you, someone is in charge, but Prince Ji is still fine.

What we are taking now is his money. King Ji loves money like his life and will never let go of any grudge.

He was also cruel and ruthless. Once, when he was on his way to travel, he beheaded Xi Bian, the governor of Cangzhou, and Li Dabian and others.

The entire family of Guangzhou Governor Dang Renhong was exiled to Guangzhou.

Dang Renhong, like his father, was a veteran minister who had served as a founding minister and had made great contributions.

Prince Ji reported to the court that Dang Renhong was corrupt and was exiled. How dare you say that Prince Ji has no power or influence?"

Guo Xiaoke was originally very satisfied with his son, but now he feels that he is too ignorant.

After being in Chang'an City for so long, he failed to join Prince Ji's team.

Most of the dandies in Chang'an City followed Prince Ji in their endeavors, but now they have become decent people.

They have money and power, but who can become as successful as these playboys?

He now regretted that he had transferred his son here too early. He should have let him study at Ji Wang's Yucai College for three years.

Those stupid sons of Old Cheng's family were able to join the army and become captains or something like that. My own son is not much better than them.

After hearing his father's scolding, Guo Daizhao realized that Prince Ji was so powerful.

He had never heard of the affairs of Xi Bian and Dang Renhong.

Most of the things these second-generation people talk about are which pleasure boat has a new person or which brothel's top girl is the most handsome.

Basically, they don't talk about court affairs.

"Then...then Aye, what should we do now? Are we just going to wait for Prince Ji to denounce us?"

Guo Daizhao asked anxiously.

Guo Xiaoke did not say anything, but stared at the letter that Prince Ji gave him, especially the last sentence: "Give it back to me."

Could it be...

"Dai Zhao, have you ever calculated how much money and gifts Wang Wencheng has given us over the years?

What is the total value?"

(Recently, I feel that my eyesight has deteriorated a bit, probably because of looking at the computer for a long time.

Everyone should pay attention to this.)
