"I see!"

Zhang Yurou quickly thought of who this 'Xue Chengde' was, this is Hou Shi'an's closest son, who is currently serving as a eunuch in the palace.

Although the eunuch in the palace has the name of eunuch, in terms of his grade, he undoubtedly cannot afford the honorific title of 'eunuch', which is the exclusive title of the chief eunuch and the eunuch in front of the palace, and the eunuch in charge of the case.

So this Xue Chengde is also known as Xue Shaojian.

She quickly understood Li Shimin's intentions: "Erlang, are you going to cut off King Qi and help in the palace?"

Hou Shi'an's most powerful assistant and righteous son died in the palace of the King of Qi - this is afraid that many people in Luoyang City will have some associations.

"It's not too late to say these things later. ”

While Luo Li spoke, he also quickened his pace: "Looking at the situation over there, most of the lords have already succeeded. At this time, if you want to avoid being caught by those masters of King Qi, it is best to leave as soon as possible. ”

Li Shimin didn't bother to pay attention to the crazy girl on his shoulder, after he found that the fire was burning everywhere in the Han Wang's Mansion, and the noise was noisy, he suddenly cast a 'wind technique', which made the speed of this god's blood surge by several percent, and disappeared into the night of Nancheng in just a moment.

This time it was still a detour, and he made a big circle in Luoyang City before returning to his lair.

——The straight-line distance between Li Shimin's courtyard and the Qi Palace's mansion is of course extremely close, only less than two squares away. But this section is also the place where the princes and ministers live. Along the way, there are not only many second- and third-grade, or even first-grade masters sitting in various houses, but also a large number of forbidden troops and embroidered guards patrolling here.

Therefore, after the incident, even if Li Shimin went underwater, there was a possibility that he would be discovered. So he simply took a detour, preferring to spend a little more time than take the risk.

And on the night after returning to the other hospital, Li Shimin had a rare good night's sleep. It wasn't until noon the next day that Li Shimin woke up from his slumber. Then he lay lazily on the bed, motionless.

Since the death of his third brother Li Xuanba, the pressure accumulated in his body seems to have been exhausted with the arrow last night, and it also took away his whole body strength.

Just like that, his head was empty, and he lay thoughtless for most of the hour before Li Shimin struggled to get up. He knew that now was not the time for him to relax, and that Young Eunuch Xue was just the beginning. His real enemies are still alive and well.

That night, Li Shimin went back to the Tang Mansion for the first time, and then he unexpectedly found that the atmosphere in the mansion was a little strange. Especially at the dinner, Li Jiancheng's sword eyebrows were furrowed, and Li Yuan and Dou's couple. Occasional distractions.

"But what's going on in this Eastern Capital?"

Li Shimin pretended to be curious and asked: "I wanted to ask before, there seem to be a lot more forbidden soldiers patrolling the streets in our Jishan Fang?"

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he was not surprised, he knew that his younger brother had been studying Mojia in the other courtyard, and it was natural that he didn't know what had happened today.

However, before he could speak, Li Yuanji had already preemptively answered, "It's the Qi Palace!" Late last night, Hou Shi'an's most righteous son, Xue Chengde, the eunuch in the palace, was shot and killed by an arrow in the east courtyard. ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and only after a moment did he ask: "Who killed it? Who is so bold?"

"It would be nice if I could find it. ”

Li Yuanji pursed the corners of his lips: "I just don't know, my father will be worried like this." ”

Li Shimin knew in his heart that his father was Wei Wei Shaoqing, who was not only in charge of the decrees of ink armor, weapons, and arsenals, but also had the responsibility of guarding the access control everywhere in the Eastern Capital.

Theoretically speaking, not only are the personal guards of the palaces of the princes and ministers in charge of Li Yuan, but even the guards on the left and right who are responsible for guarding the palace should also be controlled by him.

Therefore, Li Yuan can't escape a responsibility for this murder case in the Qi Palace.

However, although there is responsibility and it has little to do with it, Li Shimin didn't care, and continued to pretend to be quite interested: "What are the details, why don't you tell me about it?"

Li Yuan shook his head with a calm expression, and the Dou family glanced at Li Shimin with deep meaning.

In the end, it was Li Yuanji who spoke: "It is said that he is a divine archer of at least the second grade, and he is holding a divine bow, and he has a royal rank ink armor body." The archery technique used is the legendary 'consistent', shooting an arrow thirteen miles away, but even Cao Wen, the chief administrator of the Qi Palace, was injured by him. After that, the masters in the Qi Wangfu did their best, but they didn't even touch the hair of this person later. ”

After that, he looked at his second brother with a suspicious gaze: "There was such a big movement last night, the forbidden army of the twelve prefectures was alarmed, almost the whole city was searched, and chickens and dogs jumped everywhere, you really don't know?"

"I really don't know. ”

Li Shimin's eyes were blank, he really didn't know. When he returned home, he fell asleep from the fatigue he had accumulated over the years.

"I don't know if I've stayed up late these days and stayed up too tired, I slept until noon last night. I didn't expect such a big event to happen in the Eastern Capital, and there were still people who dared to kill people in the Imperial City. ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a while, and then said thoughtfully: "Is it consistent? I remember that there are not many people who know this kind of archery? Is there any ten in the entire territory of the Great Sui? It should be easy to find out." ”

"Where is it so easy?"

At this time, Li Yuanji's voice was obviously a little gloating: "There are really not many people who have mastered the consistent divine shooting, and there are only thirteen people in total. But eight of them are serving in front of the Liaodong Army. There are also three people who have become thieves, and the remaining two are not in the Eastern Capital. It is said that the King of Qi was furious and scolded several heads of the embroidered guards to the point of blood. ”

Li Shimin's heart is like a mirror, and he knows that the reason why Li Yuanji has such emotions is mostly because he heard some rumors. This made him somewhat relieved, brothers are still brothers after all.

"Having said that, isn't it strange that Hou Shi'an's righteous son died in the Qi Palace?

When everyone at the dinner table heard this, they couldn't help but glance at each other again, but they all tacitly agreed that they didn't say a word, and the atmosphere here became more and more embarrassing and silent.

Only Li Yuanji sneered, and his face was full of sorrow

"These days, it really hasn't stopped. First, there were rebels who attacked the queen's chariot, and then assassins killed people in the imperial city. This is clearly a state-owned demon, and all the ghosts and ghosts are rampant in the world-"

After Li Jiancheng sighed lightly, he looked at Li Shimin again: "Still don't talk about it, when will Vilu Sha return to the palace on leave?"

His words attracted the attention of several people, and they all looked in the direction of Li Shimin.

The latter didn't care at all, and calmly put the food in his mouth: "Big brother, Confucius has clouds, he doesn't eat or sleep." A gentleman cannot speak while he is eating. ”

Li Jiancheng suddenly had black lines on his head, thinking to himself, why didn't you say this before? And their family has been mixed with Xianbei for many years, but there has never been this rule of not saying anything and sleeping silently.

Li Yuan simply put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at Li Shimin coldly: "You can go to the palace for me to be on duty in the next few days, even if it is three days of fishing and two days of drying nets." Now in the Eastern Capital, it is an extraordinary time, and you cannot be allowed to act willfully. ”

Li Shimin had no fear, and directly turned his face to the side: "The children have already submitted their resignations, where is the value of it?"

"You bastard!"

Li Yuan was about to slap the table, but then his heart moved slightly: "This matter is not negotiable, believe it or not, the old man will tear down your courtyard, take back the divine blood and demon vein, but if you can honestly go to be your Qianniu preparation, our family's Liuhe Shenyin can be studied for ten days, provided that it cannot be disassembled." ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned, his divine blood was almost completed, and he didn't resist going back to the palace on an errand, those words just now were just fake hypocrisy. has made up his mind, as long as his father is a little tougher, he will take advantage of the situation.

But I didn't expect that there would be such a harvest in the end-

He couldn't help but roll his eyes, and asked tentatively: "Ten days is not enough, at least three months! ”

"It seems that the old man has never taught you what a ruler is and what an inch is. You bastard, you've learned to make inches—"

Li Yuan's face was a little dark: "It's okay to send it to your other courtyard, at most a month." ”

Li Shimin smiled dumbly: "A word is a certainty, but please allow the child to prepare, and then go to the palace to cancel the day after tomorrow." ”

Li Yuan was slightly stunned, and then smiled with relief, his face was pale.

He thought he had caught the sore point of this little bastard, and finally didn't let this talented second son continue to be wasted.

At this moment, Dou Shi suddenly spoke: "Later, Pilu Sha, you will go to Xuanwu Tower with me, I have something to say to you." ”

Li Shimin's expression suddenly turned solemn, and his heart was condensed-

※ ※ ※ ※

It was still the third floor of the Xuanwu Building, and Li Shimin followed the Dou family in front of him and stepped on the last staircase. And his face showed a hint of confusion just right: "I don't know if my mother, what do you have to say to the child? Could it be that there is something about the child recently that is not in line with the mother's wishes." ”

Dou Shi did not answer, but turned around and looked at Li Shimin with complicated eyes.

It wasn't until a full tea time later that Dou Shi said quietly: "The things you have done recently, no matter which one of them is not to my liking. Yesterday, Xue Chengde, the eunuch in the palace, should have died at your hands. ”

Li Shimin's pupils condensed slightly, and he noticed Dou's tone, without any doubts, and seemed to be sure of the answer. But he was still stunned and puzzled: "Xue Chengde, died at my hands, so possible, I was in the study all the time yesterday, sleeping upside down." ”

He knew that the few good hands arranged by the Dou family were not only responsible for taking care of their own homes, but also had the responsibility of surveillance, so he made some arrangements as expected.
