Everyone looked at Dou Dexuan with some sympathy.

To be honest, Chen Zhengtai himself is a monk and insists on scolding people, which is a bit unreasonable.

Dou Dexuan looked aggrieved.

There are not many people who have an impression of Dou Dexuan. Everyone’s impression of him is that although this person is the direct descendant of the Dou family, he is the grandson of Dou Yi, the former father-in-law, but he acts very low-key. During his tenure as a censor, he never had any disputes with others, nor did he behave too much because of their Dou family.

You should know that true nobles often have one problem, that is, they like to show off!

But Dou Dexuan is different. Except for being on duty, he never deals with people too much after the price. It is reported that when he returned home, he studied in his study.

People speculate that it may be because the Dou family strongly supported Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, which was ultimately disliked by the current emperors. Li Shimin deliberately forgot the Dou family, which also led to the Dou family's determination to be a low-key person.

Of course... this speculation is still unfounded. The Dou family is not the Chen family. The Chen family failed to support Li Jiancheng, so they were frightened and walked on thin ice.

But even if the Dou family failed, the foundation of their family was still extremely deep. Since the Western Wei Dynasty, they have had a high reputation. Not only did they marry the Yuwen family and the Li family, but they were even in-laws with the Yang family of the Sui Dynasty!

Such a family will never affect the family's foundation even if the support of Prince Li Jiancheng fails.

What's more, Li Shimin's biological mother was Dou Dexuan's biological aunt, and the Li and Dou family had broken bones and tendons.

Dou Dexuan is usually low-key and has an ordinary life. Who dares to imagine that this person has such deep scheming and scheming?

But Chen Zhengtai was reluctant to give in: "At this point, we still have to argue..."

"The lower official is not a quibble." Dou Dexuan looked cautious and couldn't say it, and he sighed: "It's just that the lower official really doesn't know why the Chen prince is targeting the Dou family, and I don't know why the Chen prince has such a prejudice against the Dou family on weekdays. If there is any offense on weekdays, the lower official is willing to apologize to the Chen prince. It's just... This collusion with the Turks is a heinous crime, and the lower official really dare not accept it."

He said, bowing respectfully to Chen Zhengtai.

At this time, Li Shimin also began to doubt.

He was indeed quite prejudiced to the Dou family. In order to support the Supreme Emperor, the Dou family caused him a lot of trouble.

But the Dou family is his mother's family after all. In this public place, in the absence of evidence, wouldn't this make Li Shimin lose face?

So Li Shimin said: "Can Zhengtai have evidence?"

"Your Majesty." Chen Zhengtai said: "Actually, after defeating the Turkic people, the son-in-law discussed with His Majesty and released fake news, to test who Mr. Qingzhu was. At that time, His Majesty and Mr. Qingzhu were relying on his hopes on Mr. Qingzhu to surface."

"But your Majesty has ever thought that Mr. Qingzhu has been in charge for so many years, but the court has not noticed it at all. So... what did they do this with? After thinking about it, there are only two words... Be cautious!"

"They must be extra cautious people, so cautious that they are perverted. It is precisely because of this prudence that Mr. Qingzhu has been hiding for so many years. No one knows the identity of this person. This is why the minister can assert that this person will never be Pei Ji, because Pei Ji's behavior is too hasty. Of course, this is understandable. After all, the situation is urgent. If the exact news comes, he may be passive, so... Pei Ji has to act."

"It's just... Is Mr. Qingzhu such a person? Even if the sky falls, he will definitely hide in unknown corners and make arrangements in secret. So... Erchen thought about it carefully. His Majesty first drafted a list of people who might be Mr. Qingzhu. After reading that list, he had only one thought."

Indeed, at that time, Li Shimin drafted a list of more than 30 people in front of Chen Zhengtai. Li Shimin asserted that there would be no more than 30 people in the world who could have this energy, so after the list was drawn up, they would be excluded one by one.

Chen Zhengtai smiled and said, "But... when he read the list, his first reaction was that Mr. Qingzhu must not be the person on the list."

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help laughing.

But he felt that this was reasonable. Mr. Qingzhu has been a man who has not been noticed for ten years. As Chen Zhengtai said, eight out of ten are people who have been ignored for a long time.

At this time, Chen Zhengtai continued, "So, after reading the list, my first thought was, who else in this world, obviously had this energy, but was ignored by His Majesty and was not included in the list? So I checked it one by one in my mind, and finally thought of the Dou family."

The ministers were confused when they heard this, but Li Shimin understood: "Before you went to the grassland, did you suspect that you went to the Dou family?"

"That's right." Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "Because the Dou family is too low-key, so low-key is not at all reasonable."

"Until His Majesty and I went out of the desert and were suddenly attacked by Turkic people, my first thought at that time was, who could make profits from His Majesty's attack? You must know that if they just smuggled and made profits by smuggling, why do they have to do such a thing by taking the blame for the world? Once this matter is leaked, it will be a disaster for the family to be confiscated and exterminated. Unless they can ensure that His Majesty can make huge profits after his death."

Li Shimin nodded.

But Dou Dexuan smiled, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

Of course, behind this smile, there was a little disdain.

Chen Zhengtai continued to tell the story: "So, my son and Your Majesty have decided on the strategy, that is, they deliberately sent someone to Guanzhong. The bad news came to Chang'an, so they wanted to see who was the culprit."

After saying this, the ministers were in an uproar.

It turns out that everyone was fooled?

In this way, all this was planned in advance by His Majesty and Chen Zhengtai?

Pei Ji finally had a slight reaction when he heard this. His body twitched like a conditioned reflex, looking confused...

He originally thought that he had failed because of bad luck. But now... it turned out that this was a trap from the beginning, and he jumped down stupidly.

Where is the sinkhole!

Chen Zhengtai continued: "Your Majesty must be thinking that as long as the bad news reaches Chang'an, let's see who will jump out, then this person is most likely Mr. Qingzhu."

"But... I don't think so. Mr. Qingzhu can have such a huge impact on the grassland, so this person must have an unknown intelligence system, which can quickly and accurately convey messages. So... the first thing I did was to eliminate Pei Ji and Xiao Yu, because the real Mr. Qingzhu must be very clear about what happened in the grassland. Since Mr. Qingzhu knew that Your Majesty was not dead at all, how could he jump out excitedly like Pei Ji and others to support the Emperor Guizheng? To put it bluntly, Pei Ji and others are just thugs on the table, but the Dou family is different. The Dou family is hidden in the dark. No matter how the situation develops, they can make steady profits."

Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai in surprise. At this time, he glanced at Dou Dexuan. Dou Dexuan was still smiling, looking disdainful, as if Chen Zhengtai was not talking about him at all.

Chen Zhengtai continued: "If Your Majesty dies, or if Your Majesty is still alive, Pei Ji and Xiao Yu force the palace to return to the Supreme Emperor, these two people can certainly become prime minister again and take control of the power of the world with the support of the Supreme Emperor. But what about the Xiao family? The Xiao family is the most important relative of the Supreme Emperor. At the beginning, they have always supported the Supreme Emperor strongly. As long as the Supreme Emperor really takes the world again, Pei Ji and Xiao Yu can get benefits, and the Xiao family... can't they soar into the sky with their family background and deep relationship with the Supreme Emperor? And Dou Dexuan naturally can't help but become a marquis and prime minister soon. This is why, if Your Majesty is killed by the Turks, their Dou family can get benefits."

When Li Shimin heard this, he suddenly realized.

Yes, when the Emperor was the emperor, the main supporters were the Xiao family, the Pei family, the Dou family, and the Yuwen family. The Yuwen family and the Dou family were also in-laws, but these four families were eventually alienated by Li Shimin!

But if the Supreme Emperor comes back to power, these four families will definitely be valued again. After all, Li Yuan needs to rule the world, so he has to use these families to replace the old ministers of the Qin Palace.

Chen Zhengtai said again: "Not only that, in this process, the Dou family does not need to take any risks, because the charge is just Pei Ji and Xiao Yu. Therefore, even if Mr. Qingzhu learned that His Majesty is still alive, he didn't care, and even... he could take this opportunity to make huge profits."

"Make huge profits?" Li Shimin felt the more mysterious he heard it, so he couldn't help asking, "How can I see it?"

Chen Zhengtai smiled and said, "It's very simple... Since Mr. Qingzhu knows that Your Majesty is still alive, but the people in the world don't know that whether it is Lord Fang, Changsun Gong, or Pei Ji, everyone only knows that Your Majesty may die. In Erpigou, people are in panic and people are not optimistic about the future. Especially after Pei Ji and others want to depose the new policy, many merchants have already felt that Erpigou is going to suffer a catastrophe, so people sell their stocks one after another, and the stock price plummeted. But at this time, the only person who learned that Your Majesty is still alive is Mr. Qingzhu. So Your Majesty guess, who will take this opportunity to take action?"

Li Shimin suddenly looked at the tiger's eyes: "What do you mean is, whoever buys stocks violently when everyone sells stocks, is Mr. Qingzhu?"

Chen Zhengtai said: "That's right."

Li Shimin frowned: "Will they acquire it in the name of the Dou family?"

"It was impossible, but the huge profits here are too great. If you leave them to anyone or ask anyone to acquire them in the name of others, you will not be relieved. You must know... This is a ten-fold or a hundred-fold interest rate spread. With such huge profits, Mr. Qingzhu is a cunning person. Will he trust anyone like this?"

Only then did Li Shimin realize that Chen Zhengtai had already studied Mr. Qingzhu very thoroughly.

Li Shimin then said solemnly: "So..."

Chen Zhengtai said: "In fact, it is not so easy to investigate. Mr. Qingzhu is cautious. Even if he wants to acquire anonymously, it will take some effort to find it out. But... Did Your Majesty forget that Erchen just said that he had already suspected that he had arrived at the Dou family a few months ago?"

Yes, when Li Shimin planned to make a list, Chen Zhengtai began to suspect that he went to the Dou family.

Of course, that's just suspicion.

"After Erchen suspected that he had been in trouble, he did not alarm the snake, but asked Erpigou to pay attention to all aspects of Erpigou's movements. This was something that Erchen's uncle had trouble with. He secretly recorded any situation about the Dou family. The Dou family is a big family, and they also have a large number of needs to exchange IOUs and buy stocks. It is not easy for others to check, but Erpigou has been deliberately careful and it is easy to find some clues."

Li Shimin suddenly realized, and then hurriedly said, "What did you find out?"

Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "It was found that the Dou family had acquired 730,000 shares during this period. However, they were rushing to the bottom of the stock," he said.

Li Shimin took a deep breath.

The ministers were also uproared, and people were shocked and looked at Dou Dexuan one after another!

Obviously... many people were surprised. The Dou family... at this point in time, they have earned so many stocks, so they are going to make a fortune!

Many people couldn't help but beat their chests and fall. In fact, when the bad news came, the stocks on the exchange were plummeting, and many people couldn't wait to sell the stocks in their hands.

But I never thought that... I was eaten by the Dou family.

When Dou Dexuan heard this, he still looked calm and said with a smile: "The words of Mr. Chen are unreasonable. It's just because our Dou family bought a lot of stocks? So Xiaguan is Mr. Qingzhu? This... is a bit far-fetched. Can't Xiaguan simply think that the stock price is low, so he wants to eat more and use it to bet that the stock price will rise in the future? In fact, at this time, the people who eat stocks at a cheap price are not just the Dou family."

This is also the truth.

When the bad news comes, most people have no confidence and their stock prices plummet. Naturally, some people will want to take risks, take advantage of some, and bet on profits of several times or even more than ten times.

People finally have the mentality of speculation, but the Dou family just earns more. Is this a sin?

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel moved. This... Dou family is really going to make a fortune.

He also began to feel a little suspicious.

but……

It is undeniable that, as Dou Dexuan said, even so, Dou Dexuan can be said that this is just a bet by the Dou family. Although he had the greatest doubt at this time, it would be far-fetched to use this to cure this crime of rebellion.

You just want to convict someone, who is convinced?
