"Master Cui, what do you think this Lord Jun should do now?"

Although Li Jue was now eager to know what happened to Li Jue, he knew that he couldn't act rashly now, because everything in Seoul was now in Li Yuntian's hands, so after calming down his excitement, he asked Cui Li in a deep voice.

Among all his subordinates, Cui Li is the most trustworthy person for Li Yao, which is not only related to Cui Li's shrewdness and ability, but also related to Cui Li's declining aristocracy, so that Cui Li's interpersonal relationships will not be too complicated and will be loyal to him.

"The Lord, the lower officials feel that the Maharaja is just waiting to see what happens, and the lower officials know about the Loyal Prince, since the Loyal Princes have called the prince to go, then it is time to reveal the truth to the prince, and the Maharaja only needs to wait patiently for a few days to have the result." Cui Li thought about it and said to Li Yao with a smile.

"If you can really save the day this time, this Maharaja must thank the heavenly gods for their blessing!" Li Jue also felt that Li Jue was in big trouble this time, so he paced back and forth in the room excitedly after a few laps and then suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to Cui Li in a deep voice, he felt that God was helping him this time, and it inexplicably changed his current passive situation.

Cui Li also laughed when he heard this, and a strange excitement flashed in his eyes, but Li Yao, who was excited, didn't notice it, he would never have thought that Cui Li, who followed him ten years ago, would be Li Yuntian's spy in North Korea, which made his every move fall in Li Yuntian's eyes.

Seoul Division.

"Lord Yu, Lord Anping brings it." While Li Jue was waiting restlessly, a guard led Li Ying to the pavilion and bowed to Li Yuntian to report.

"The lower official greets the prince." Li Ying glanced at Li Jue and bowed respectfully to Li Yuntian.

Li Jue frowned and looked at Li Ying, his face was gloomy and terrifying, although he didn't know what happened now, but judging from the current situation, his experience must be related to Li Ying.

"Do you know him?" Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Jue, and asked Li Jue quietly.

"Back to the prince, he is His Royal Highness." Li Ying glanced at Li Jue and replied respectfully.

"Tell the king why His Royal Highness was attacked by the Assassins?" Li Yuntian asked in a deep voice when he heard this.

"Lord Shizi, His Royal Highness and the Lord of Shouyang have a chance to inherit the throne of the Joseon Kingdom, but the Lord of Shouyang now has the upper hand, so His Royal Highness the Prince is worried that the Lord of Shouyang will become the new King of the Joseon Kingdom, so he privately found the lower official and asked the lower official to help him do one thing to reverse the current decline."

A gloomy look flashed on Li Ying's face, and after stabilizing his mind for a while, he said in an orderly manner, "Therefore, after consulting with him, the lower official arranged an assassination to win the hearts of the people, as long as His Royal Highness the Prince has an accident, then it is obvious that the outside world will suspect the head of the Lord of Shouyang, and the Ming Dynasty will not let a person who killed the Prince of the World become the new king of the Korean State......"

"Nonsense!" Without waiting for Li Ying to finish speaking, Li Jue, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but interrupt him with a loud roar, and pointed at Li Ying angrily and said, "Lord Anping, why did you frame this prince, did Lord Shouyang let you do this?" ”

"Lord, what the lower officials said is true, His Royal Highness the Prince promised that in the future, he would let the lower officials enjoy endless glory and wealth, and take charge of the power of the Korean State with him, and the lower officials agreed to His Royal Highness the Prince at a moment's heart." A look of embarrassment flashed in Li Ying's eyes, and then he looked at Li Yuntian seriously.

"Lord Wang, his words are extremely ridiculous, could it be that the lower officials will joke with their lives?" Although he had long expected that Li Ying would frame himself, when this scene really came, Li Jue still felt extremely angry, and said to Li Yuntian with a flushed face.

"Lord Anping, what do you explain?" When Li Yuntian heard this, he looked at Li Ying silently.

"Back to the prince, Originally, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World only suffered some skin injuries in the assassination, but the lower officials were fascinated for a while, and wanted to take the opportunity to bring down His Royal Highness the Prince of the World and the Lord of Shouyang, so he let people smear poison on the weapon, and almost killed His Royal Highness the Prince of the World."

Li Ying had long known how to answer Li Yuntian's question, and after smiling bitterly, he knelt down to Li Yuntian, "The lower official is guilty, I hope the prince will forgive him." ”

"Lying, it was obviously the Shouyang Mahjun who instructed him to do this, and he dared to frame the head of the lower officials, the prince must be aware of it." Li Jue was already angry at this time, he didn't expect Li Ying to beat him up and implicate him in the assassination incident, so he bowed to Li Yuntian angrily and said.

"Shizi, this king asks you, once you are assassinated and killed, do you think the prince of Shouyang, who is suspected of assassination, can still ascend to the throne of Joseon?" Li Yuntian glanced at Li Jue, who was excited, and asked in a deep voice after a deep groan.

"This ......" Li Jue was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't answer Li Yuntian's words for a while, just as Li Yuntian said, how could Da Ming let Li Jue, who was suspected of assassination, ascend to the throne of the king of Joseon? Therefore, Li Yao had no motive to assassinate him at all, and this caused Li Yao a lot of trouble.

"Shizi, what do you think this king should do about this?" Seeing that Li Jue was dumbfounded for a while, Li Yuntian frowned and asked, looking very embarrassed.

"Lord Wang, the lower officials have been wronged, please check the Lord Clearly!" Li Jue came back to his senses when he heard this, and quickly knelt on the ground with his legs bent, and said loudly with a sad and indignant face, he never expected that he would fall into such a big trouble, once he was found to have conspired with Li Ying to assassinate him, then he would not want to become the king of Joseon again.

"You two stand aside for the time being, and let this king think about it." Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, and after a deep groan, he said to Li Jue and Li Ying, and it could be seen that this incident seemed to make him feel very troubled.

Li Jue and Li Ying bowed to Li Yuntian when they heard this, and after they were taken down by the guards, when they left, Li Jue glared at Li Ying viciously and wanted to swallow it in one bite.

Li Yuntian noticed this scene, and a faint smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, after these days of preparation, he had completed the layout, and this time Li Jue would not be able to escape.

The news that Li Jue was taken to the Hancheng Department of the Lecture Hall soon spread throughout the Seoul officialdom, and immediately attracted the attention of officials of all sizes in Seoul, and everyone privately speculated whether Li Yuntian wanted to gradually hand over the power of the Korean state to Li Jue.

It can be said that this meeting between Li Jue and Li Yuntian has touched the nerves of the entire Seoul officialdom, and whether Li Jue can ascend to the highest power stage in North Korea depends on the result of today's meeting between the two.

Therefore, no official in the Seoul officialdom today is in the mood to handle official business, and they are all secretly waiting for the results of the Seoul Secretariat, which has actually stopped working and turned away all those who come to do business.

In the evening, the parliamentary government.

The Parliamentary Government is the highest administrative body of the Kingdom of Joseon, and is composed of high-ranking civil officials from the Monxia Prefecture and the three divisions (Si Ji Yuan, Hongwen Guan, and Si Xian Office).

In the fifth year of Emperor Taejong of Joseon, there were six Caos, including officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers, who were in charge of various government affairs, which led to the narrowing of the authority of the parliamentary government.

However, in the eighteenth year of Joseon Sejong, the government of Liucao was submitted to the government for deliberation, and according to the provisions of the Grand Ceremony of the Parliamentary State, the government was in charge of "the general hundred officials, the government of the level, the management of yin and yang, and the state of the state".

The parliamentary government has a number of positions, which can be said to be the most important official position in the Korean officialdom, among which the highest position is naturally the leader of Zhengyipin, commonly known as the prime minister, which is equivalent to the prime minister of the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.

Under the leadership of the government is the left and right of the first product, from the left and right of the first product, and the left and right counselors of the second product.

There are 2 people in the fourth grade, 1 person in the inspection of the fifth grade, 11 civil officials from the sixth grade (2 in the literary class, 9 in the martial class), and 1 person in the eighth grade.

Among them, the leading government, the left government, and the right government are collectively called the three princes, that is, the three political officials.

Choi Li has been in the position of inspector of Zheng Wupin for nearly ten years, during which he has refused many opportunities for promotion and transfer, for no other reason, the government is the center of the Korean government, and he needs to stay here to maneuver between the various forces of the Korean state and control the situation in the Korean state.

At this moment, although night had fallen, the lights in the Seoul government were bright, and all the officials above the fourth rank in Seoul gathered in the meeting hall, waiting for the latest news from the Seoul Office of the Shomu Hall, and whispered to each other.

The leader of the parliamentary government is Li Yuntian's old acquaintance, Li Ji, the king of the Seongsan Mansion, and he is also the most powerful supporter of the prince Li Jue in the Korean state.

As for the biggest supporter of Shouyang Dajun, it is Huang Xi, the monarch of the Nanyuan Mansion, Huang Xi and Li Ji have been fighting since they were young, and they have been fighting until now, and they are a pair of old rivals with many grievances.

It is worth mentioning that the reason why Choi Li was able to become the inquisitor of the parliamentary government is due to the support of Huang Hee, who is also the senior official with whom the DPRK has the closest relationship with Li Yuntian.

The right councillor of the parliamentary government is Yoo Sang-min, who was named the king of Gwangun Mansion by the king of Joseon a few years ago, and is the centrist leader of the Korean state.

In the face of the powerful Li Ji and Huang Xi, Yoo Sang-min acted very low-key and never interfered in the dispute between the two, which also enabled him to protect himself from being affected in the power struggle of the Korean state.

The power and status of Li Ji and Huang Xi in the Korean officialdom are like Yang Pu, the first assistant of the cabinet in the Ming Dynasty, and Hu Ying, the head of the six civil officials, for example, both of them are comparable in terms of seniority and rank.

According to the different camps they belonged to, the officials in the parliamentary government naturally gathered in three different rooms of the parliamentary government, led by Li Ji, Huang Hee, and Yoo Sangmin, waiting for the latest news from the Hanseong office of the Seoul office.

Among them, the most nervous is the people of Huang Xi's faction, if Li Yuntian really lets Li Jue intervene in the affairs of the government, then nine times out of ten Li Yuntian will choose Li Jue to become the new king of Joseon, so that their career will come to an end, and there will be a bloody disaster.

As the news came out that Li Jue was going to assist Li Yuntian in handling the affairs of the DPRK, the forces of Huang Hee's faction were deeply hit, and those officials with opportunistic psychology changed their ways one after another and turned to Li Jue, making their strength suddenly the weakest of the three forces in the DPRK and China.

However, none of the senior officials of Huang Xi's faction betrayed Li Jue, after all, it was not yet a moment of despair, after all, Li Yuntian did not announce the news of letting Li Jue intervene in the affairs of the government, which meant that the war between Li Jue and Li Jue was not over.

Those ordinary officials can easily change their courts, after all, their small official positions have limited influence, but those high-ranking officials are different, once they take refuge in the other party, it will bring unpredictable far-reaching impact, and Li Ji will definitely not forgive them again.

Among the high-ranking officials of Li Yao's camp, in addition to Huang Xi, the left Yizheng and Huang Xi, there are also Xu Chou, Zheng Jin, the criminal Cao judge, and Cui Kang, the official Cao's sentence, known as the four giants of Li Yao's camp.
