"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is a routine matter." The guard hurriedly explained with a smile.

"Well done, Yuanji, reward!" Li Jiancheng said generously, and then Li Yuanji handed over a few silver ingots, and the guards thanked Dade and thanked him more than once.

Li Jiancheng didn't look at Li Shimin, he went in in front with arrogance, and Li Yuanji sneered, his eyes were full of pride.

"Shimin, let's go in too." Yuan Ziyan reminded.

Li Shimin looked very unenergetic, perhaps he had made up his mind to withdraw from this cruel circle of contention, hoping to get a moment of peace.

The scene inside surprised everyone, unlike before, the Praetorian Guards were lined up all around, and their faces were cold and staring at everyone. The ministers couldn't help whispering, this kind of formation, I'm afraid that something is going to happen in the palace.

Li Jiancheng disagreed, his steps were brisk, he thought that his father was actually wary of Li Shimin, Li Shimin's face was cloudy, and his heart was even colder.

When Li Yuan sat down on the dragon chair directly above, the ministers immediately bowed their heads and bowed, and the mountain shouted long live. Li Yuan raised his hand indifferently, and then gave the guards a look, and the guards immediately stood close to the ministers, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Li Shimin and his generals were standing with the most people.

Li Shimin remained silent, but Yuan Ziyan was beating a drum in his heart, could it be that Li Yuan had some unfavorable evidence?

"In the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, I raised troops in Jinyang, suppressed the rebellion, and maintained the stability of the world, and it has been nine years now, but it was suddenly yesterday. More than half of you here responded positively, if it weren't for this, I would have been framed and killed by the traitors at the end of the Sui Dynasty. Where did the Tang Dynasty come from? Li Yuan said movingly.

The ministers also felt a lot, and before they knew it, several years had passed, and Li Yuan said: "In the past, I was full of spirits, came to the battlefield in person, killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, how happy was it? But I don't want to, time flies. Time flies. I am already a white-headed arched old man, and I can't bear the burden of state affairs, and I have been plagued by nightmares in recent days. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I was the only one in the huge palace, I could hear the breathing and heartbeat, and I couldn't see through the scenery outside the window. How lonely! ”

Li Yuan shed a few tears as he spoke, and many people cried bitterly. The eldest grandson, Shunde, as the founding father, stepped forward and asked with tears: "Your Majesty, now the Tang Dynasty is in good weather." Guotai and the people, why did Your Majesty make such sad words? ”

"Shunde, in the past, I was the best with you, Wen Jing, and Pei Lian. You dare to follow me at the risk of the world's disapproval, but you don't want Liu Wenjing to lose his morality today. Pei Lin said that he was sick and returned to his hometown, who knows who will be left tomorrow? ”

The more Li Yuan talked, the more sad he became, and the eldest grandson Shunde was also very sad, and he didn't know how to answer, but he also knew that Li Yuan had done such a long emotional foreshadowing, and he might have to make up his mind again to take the people around him.

Sure enough, Li Yuan wiped a handful of tears, changed into his usual majestic appearance, looked around, and said in a cold voice: "The queen died early, I have no way to teach my son, and for several months, various changes about the crown prince and the king of Qin have emerged one after another. I am the king of a country and the head of a family, and the prince's discord will inevitably affect the stability of the society. ”

"Sons and daughters are dead!"

"Sons and daughters are dead!"

Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin came out together, kneeling side by side, both with calm expressions, one confident, gloating, and the other having made up his mind and passively avoiding the world.

"Your Majesty, since the Criminal Department has not yet investigated clearly, you must not blame the two princes more." The eldest grandson Shunde said boldly, Li Yuan frowned slightly, but he didn't expect this old guy to be intimate with Li Shimin secretly, otherwise he wouldn't speak for him openly.

"Your Majesty, the hasty handling of the situation will cause the people to panic and shake the foundation of the country." Liu Hongji also stood up and said, although he was not biased, he did not advocate drawing conclusions now.

With these two founding fathers as pioneers, the rest of the people also had the courage to persuade Li Yuan to take it seriously and not to draw conclusions prematurely.

"Hey, I don't believe in the oath anymore, and only by making a break can I calm everything." Li Yuan got up as he spoke, wanting to step into the stage and take a closer look at his son, but his eyes were dark, and he fell backwards suddenly, his face pale.

"Your Majesty!" Everyone let out a burst of exclamations, and Li Shimin suddenly got up and wanted to help, only to hear a few sounds, and a few Xueliang long knives on his neck. Li Shimin looked back in annoyance, and it was several guards.

"I'm too tired to act rashly." Li Yuan trembled and leaned on the dragon chair with his hands, trying to sit well, sweating like rain.

Li Yuanji pretended to cry bitterly, as if he felt very sorry for his father, Li Yuan laughed at himself: "I often dream of the queen today, presumably time is running out, and the time limit is approaching." ”

In an uproar, everyone was so frightened that they knelt down together, and the eldest grandson Shunde and others wept bitterly, why did Your Majesty say this. Only Yuan Ziyan did not kneel down, calmly watching everything that happened in the court.

Li Yuan was a little displeased, ordered everyone to be flat, and asked as if jokingly: "Ziyan, tell me, how is my lifespan?" ”

"There is no doubt that Your Majesty has a long and peaceful life, which is the envy of the world." Yuan Ziyan said without hesitation.

Oh? Li Yuan was in a good mood when he heard this, and his panic was not so bad, and he asked again: "I always dreamed of the queen and seemed to communicate with her in a semi-conscious state, isn't she summoning me?" ”

Cut, the person talking to you is me behind the portrait, okay? Of course, Yuan Ziyan couldn't break it, and said: "Your Majesty is troubled by state affairs and family affairs, you can't eat, you can't sleep at night, you can't avoid being in good spirits, and seeing the first queen in a dream shows that Your Majesty is helpless in his heart and misses his dead wife." ”

It seems that this is the case, Li Yuan did not forget today's theme, and asked again: "The world was initially decided, but there was constant turmoil, what is the reason?" ”

"That's idle."

After Yuan Ziyan finished speaking, the hall was full of surprise, but no one dared to laugh, this is too dare to say, right?

"How?" Li Yuan asked with a cold face.

"Your Majesty, wealth and stability are a double-edged sword, and the bad side will make people arrogant, lascivious, and evil. If you go back to the beginning, everyone is running around for how to save their lives, chasing and killing the enemy army for hundreds of miles, and never sleeping, who can care about intrigue? It is the body that is injured in the war, but it is the heart that is injured in the struggle for power. Yuan Ziyan said.

When these words spoke of Li Yuan's pain, the two lines of tears slipped down again, and he couldn't stop nodding.

"I'll not hide it from you, I've been very confused lately, I can't go back to the past, and I don't know what the future holds. Ziyan, you can take a look at the future fortune for me. ”

Rushed to the doctor, Li Yuan wanted to make another prediction. Yuan Ziyan stared at Li Yuan in the audience, no need to say it, everyone could see it, her complexion was very bad, of course she couldn't tell the truth, Yuan Ziyan thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, then please say a word to test!" ”

Li Yuan thought about it, maybe he felt that his sons were not filial and not as good as beasts, so he said angrily: "Just test the word bird!" ”

After speaking, Li Yuan also wrote down this word and asked the eunuch to send it to Yuan Ziyan, in fact, it was for his sons to see, bastard things, can you let your father live a stable life for a few days, beast!

Yuan Ziyan took it with both hands, looked left and right, the traditional and simplified characters of birds and beasts were the same, and he didn't speak for a long time. There is no shortage of well-educated people in the court, if you look at it literally, it is relatively shallow, there is a person above, and there is a departure below, there should be a prince who was driven out of Beijing, so they all changed their faces and held their breath.

Li Yuan also analyzed it this way, this word came out inadvertently, maybe it was really providence, someone really wanted to leave the capital. Li Yuan couldn't help but glance at Li Shimin, who was still kneeling underground, and several guards also pressed knives on his neck, in fact, Li Yuan knew that Li Shimin didn't have any other intentions just now, but saw that his father had fainted and wanted to help, so he ordered the guards to retreat.

"Your Majesty, a bird can also be understood as a bird, and in layman's terms, it is a bird."

Yuan Ziyan's words were amazing, and he immediately sighed, this is really too far-fetched, who doesn't look at the word to measure the word, Yuan Ziyan clearly wants to avoid the important and light.

Li Yuan frowned and said, "Then test this bird word." ”

"Of course, a bird can be understood as a bird, so why is Your Majesty displeased?" Yuan Ziyan asked again.

"I'm just talking unintentionally, just talking." Li Yuan said again.

Unintentional words? Yuan Ziyan's eyes suddenly lit up, cleared his throat, took a step forward, and said loudly: "The answer is self-evident, the word bird is unintentionally black, may I ask Your Majesty, is there a black character in the current Tang City?" ”

Is that okay? Li Yuan almost didn't laugh angrily, he didn't make a typo, and he laughed when he was angry, which was very uncomfortable.

"Wucheng!" Li Yuan said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the north of Wucheng is the land of the Turks, and the Turks have coveted the Central Plains in recent years, and they have not lived in peace. First, Yanmen assassinated Emperor Sui, and then supported Liu Wuzhou, Wang Shichong, Liu Heimin and others, and fought against my Tang Dynasty everywhere. Therefore, the folk girl concluded that this word should be on the border of the Tang Dynasty by Turkic soldiers, and it is the land of Wucheng! Yuan Ziyan said affirmatively.

Ha, haha, Li Yuan was finally amused, this Yuan Ziyan is so funny, no wonder Li Shimin likes her so much, it's just a pistachio, it's obviously a bird word, I have to say that it is a bird, or a bird without a heart, and it has become Wucheng.

Obviously, Yuan Ziyan was diverting the emperor's attention and wanting to fade his plan to punish Li Shimin.

"Father, the parents who have received both hair and skin on the body, the sons and daughters are willing to lead 100,000 elite soldiers to fight to the death against the Turks, and there will be no victory!" Li Shimin was not stupid enough to sit still, and immediately said.

The situation did change, and many of the ministers who supported Li Shimin began to pretend to be confused, turning their attention to the Turks. How could Li Yuan be at the mercy of a little woman, no! When he continued to suffer from the chaos, he had to make up his mind, even if he sealed Li Shimin to Jingzhou first.

"Report!" There are urgent military documents delivered outside, and when they are placed in front of Li Yuan's eyes, Li Yuan's eyes are about to pop out in shock, I go, the Turks have really sent troops and are at war with Wucheng! (To be continued)
