No one is a plant, who can be ruthless? Even if Li Chengqian resented Li Shimin before, the family affection between father and son was never given up, especially when Li Chengqian heard his father's hair turn white overnight, he finally opened the gate of his feelings and started crying in front of Li Xiu. Li Xiu did not advise him, and just waited quietly for Li Chengqian to vent his emotions.

After a while, Li Chengqian slowly stopped crying, but he was much more energetic at this time. After all, he had too many negative emotions accumulated in his heart before, and now he was all vented with tears, which would be better.

"Thank you, sir, I feel much better!" After Li Chengqian calmed down, he stood up and bowed to Li Xiu. If Li Xiu hadn't told him this, he would have been immersed in pain. Now he was much more relaxed and had the desire to survive, which made him feel better than ever before.

"It's good that you're fine. Now you're not only living for yourself, but also your wife, children, and even your father. If something really happens to you, your father will probably live in pain and annoyance for the rest of his life!" Li Xiu also said with relief again at this time. It would make Li Chengqian rekindle his desire to survive, and his purpose of meeting the other party today was accomplished by half.

"Father... has he decided what to do with me?" Li Chengqian nodded first, then hesitated for a moment and asked again. He no longer wanted to die now, so he naturally cared about his own treatment.

"This..." Li Xiu hesitated for a moment, and then said cautiously, "Your father fell ill because of vomiting blood, so your uncle and others have been dealing with your affairs. I guess Zhao Jie and Du He cannot escape death. As for your actions, it depends on your Majesty's intention. However, based on my understanding of Your Majesty, he should not kill you."

"I did disappoint my father this time. From the moment I was detained here, I didn't plan to go out alive again, so even if my father really killed me, I would never have any complaints. But at that time, the Su family and his daughter would ask you, Mr. and aunt, to take care of me!" Li Chengqian bowed to Li Xiu again at this time. Although Li Xiu said that Li Shimin might not kill him, he was still mentally prepared for the worst.

"I will try my best to persuade your father to do this later. However, in addition to visiting you this time, I have another thing I want to inquire about. To be precise, your uncle asked me to inquire about this matter from you." Li Xiu finally told him the direct purpose of coming here.

Li Chengqian was completely calmed down and his mind was very organized. So after hearing Li Xiu's words, he immediately understood and immediately spoke: "I'm afraid I want to ask me, where did the property I bought from Li Anyan and others?"

"Yes, your uncle and others have discovered that you have spent a huge amount of money, but the source is not clear. Moreover, even Zhao Jie and others can't explain this matter, so they can only ask you." Li Xiu nodded and said.

"I am indeed the only one who knows about this. If I don't say it, I'm afraid my uncle and the others will only be able to doubt a few objects at most, but they will never find their tone. Even if I say it, it's useless because the other party did it too clean." Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was too confused at the beginning, so he chose to join forces with the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party was guarding against him everywhere. Of course, he was also guarding against the other party, so he was only willing to accept the other party's support in terms of property, and he was not allowed to interfere in other aspects.

"Who is the other party?" Li Xiu couldn't help but ask even more curiously when he heard Li Chengqian's words.

"The other party only released one person at the front desk, that is Cui Gan. Usually, Cui Gan contacted me, including money and material exchanges, and it was all handled by Cui Gan. Even if I confessed Cui Gan, I could only catch Cui Gan, and it would be difficult to implicate those people behind him." Li Chengqian smiled bitterly at this time.

"The family! It's them!" Li Xiu frowned when he heard Cui Gan's name. In fact, before that, he and Changsun Wuji also guessed some possible forces, among which the most suspected were the big families led by the Five Clans and Seven Hopes. However, the speculation was speculation after all, and it was not until now that he heard Li Chengqian's words that he finally confirmed.

"The father repeatedly suppressed the aristocratic family, which has greatly declined the power of the aristocratic family, and they naturally were unwilling to fail, so they came to me. However, both of us were just working together and were very cautious. For example, the aristocratic family only sent Cui Gan to contact me. In this way, even if I confessed Cui Gan after failure, I would not be able to do anything to the aristocratic family." Li Chengqian smiled bitterly again, and it has to be said that the aristocratic family can stand firm for hundreds of years, and it is indeed extraordinary. For example, if he rebelled like this time, even if the aristocratic family participated in it, the court could not provide any evidence.

"What a noble family, what a Cui Gan. At that time, I thought that they had established academies as a means to fight against the court, but I didn't expect that there was such a trick in secret!" Li Xiu also said with annoyed expression at this time. He did not expect that the noble family's means to fight against Li Shimin's suppression were actually two-way, and they were so secret that neither he nor Li Shimin noticed it in advance.

"Sir, tell your uncle about this. At least you can arrest Cui Gan. Maybe you can pull other people out of Cui Gan." Li Chengqian spoke again at this time. If Cui Gan's mouth could be pried open, it would be very likely that everyone behind Cui Gan was involved, which would have a huge blow to the aristocratic family.

"This fact is too difficult. With Cui Gan's scheming, I'm afraid you will be ready after you failed to rebel." Li Xiu shook his head at this time. He had dealt with Cui Gan several times and was quite familiar with Cui Gan. With the other party's methods and decisiveness, he should not leave them any chance.

Li Chengqian also showed a sad expression when he heard Li Xiu's words. In fact, he had had a lot of dealings with Cui Gan, so he naturally knew the other party's strength.

At that time, Li Xiu and Li Shimin chatted for a while. It was getting late at this time. Changsun Wuji was still waiting for his news outside, so Li Xiu once again told Li Chengqian to take care of himself, and then said goodbye and left, and Li Chengqian also personally sent him out.
