The next day, it was the first day of the sixth month of the ninth year of Wude, and early in the morning, Li Yuan received another secret recital from Taishi Ling Fu Yi: "Taibai sees Qin Fen, and the King of Qin should have the world!" ”

At that moment, Li Yuan couldn't believe his eyes, could it really be Shimin, he really wanted to sit in this world, so where did he put his father?

Li Yuan was furious and hurriedly ordered someone to pass on Zixuan to see him. Zixuan knelt on the ground and saluted him, Li Yuan didn't let her get up, and threw Fu Yi's recital in front of her, "Yang Zixuan, what else do you have to say this time?" What a Turk, I was almost deceived by you! ”

Zixuan picked up the fold and hurriedly read it, and said, "Father, the courtiers and daughters-in-law have nothing to say. Zixuan had already told his father that I didn't understand celestial phenomena. Zi Xuan just calculated that the Turks were coming, and saying that the Turks might be too white was just Zi Xuan's analysis. Father, these two Taibai Jingtian were played by Taishi Ling Fu Yi, is he the only one in my Tang Dynasty who understands celestial phenomena? Why didn't my father ask someone else if anyone else had seen Taibai Jingtian? Didn't my father doubt that Fu Yi really saw Taibai Jingtian? ”

Li Yuan said angrily: "What a clever girl!" Are you a fool? You said that the Turks may be too vain, and I intercepted the letter of Jieli Khan to destroy the Tang Dynasty, do you dare to say that this is not what the people of the world did to save you from the palace? ”

Zixuan was covered in a cold sweat, and said calmly: "Father left Zixuan in the palace, how can the people know what Zixuan said to his father?" How could Zixuan know what Shimin had done in the palace? ”

Li Yuan sneered: "This son of mine is very clever, and there are things he can't do?" ”

Zixuan stubbornly said: "Father, the emperor is not only clever in this son's means. Since the world was pacified, the crown prince and the king of Qi have framed the people many times openly and secretly, and the father is not unaware. How did my father know that this time it was not the plan of the crown prince and the king of Qi to frame the people? With the means of the crown prince and the king of Qi, it is not difficult to buy a Fu Yi! ”

"Bold! How dare you defy me like this! Li Yuan shouted, "You said that Jiancheng and Yuanji framed the people, so the people are innocent?" Wasn't the matter of Renzhi Palace a plan set up by him? Yang Zixuan, I don't want you to quarrel with you today. Let me ask you, what is he planning for the people? ”

"Father, the people of the world have no plans." Zi Xuan said humbly, there are still three days left to change the Xuanwu Gate. I don't know how the people of the world are ready. I must not let Li Yuan catch any tricks, otherwise history will be rewritten, and the entire Qin Palace's top and bottom will die!

"Do you think I'll believe it?" Li Yuan bent down and looked directly at Zixuan. "Thou hast gone into battle with the people of the world, and thou hast been born and died. Countless great ideas were given to him. The person he trusts the most is you, what plan does he have that he won't tell you? Even if he doesn't sue you, you can figure it out with your ability to pinch and calculate. Isn't it? Since the Jinyang Army. Everyone knows that none of the hexagrams you Yang Zixuan calculated have not been fulfilled! You can calculate a hexagram for me now, and calculate what the people of the world want to do? ”

Zixuan said: "Shimin doesn't have any plans, how can Zixuan calculate it?" ”

"Don't say yes, so you can't do it?" A cold light shot out of Li Yuan's eyes, Zixuan trembled, and Li Yuan said, "Someone, pass the staff!" ”

What the? Li Yuan actually wanted to torture her, Zixuan was shocked. Cane punishment began in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and in the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou dynasties, the cane punishment was listed as one of the five punishments. Although the cane punishment at this time was not as humiliating as the court battle in the Ming Dynasty, the cane punishment at this time was to use sticks to whip people's backs, buttocks and legs respectively. Buttocks or legs, that's it, just hurt some muscles and bones, but the back is the key point, across the flank bones, the back is full of internal organs, easy to cause internal injuries.

After a while, the two eunuchs brought in the sticks of execution, Zixuan looked at Li Yuan with resentful eyes, and Li Yuan's lofty voice was cold to the bone, "Yang Zixuan, don't blame me for punishing you a weak woman. It's really that I must put the country and society first, and you are stubborn and unwilling to tell the truth to me, so you can't complain about me, and you will be executed! ”

The two eunuchs got the order, pressed Zixuan to a torture bench, picked up the stick and beat Zixuan down. The first cane hit her buttocks, Zixuan only felt a hot pain, she gritted her teeth and didn't say a word; The second cane hit her leg, as painful as a needle prick, Zixuan clasped the edge of the torture bench with both hands, and beads of sweat fell down her small round face; The third cane hit the back, Zixuan's whole body had a violent spasm, a mouthful of blood spit out, and finally let out a miserable scream.

Li Yuan waved his hand, the cane stopped, and Li Yuan paced to Zixuan's head, "Zixuan, why are you doing this?" Thou art thin, and thou hast just given birth, and thou canst not stand the rod. You just need to tell me what he is planning, and I just want to stop him in time. He is my son, and I will not kill him! ”

Zixuan thought to himself, you won't kill him, but Jiancheng and Yuan Ji will meet. You forced me to say that it was because of your throne; I can't say, for the sake of a thousand years of history! So Zixuan said in a voice trembling with pain: "Shimin, he ...... Nothing was planned. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so hard-mouthed, give me a beating!" Li Yuan roared.

Zi Xuan's terrible cry came from the Ganlu Palace, but it didn't take long for it to stop, and before he had ten rods, Zi Xuan fainted in pain. Li Yuan ordered her to be sent back to the Chengxiang Hall and continued to be imprisoned.

When the news reached the Qin Palace, the people couldn't believe their ears, "What did you say?" The father and emperor used a cane on Zixuan! Why? Didn't you say that you would let her out of the palace today? ”

Wei Jue said: "I heard that this morning the emperor received another piece of Taishi Ling, saying that Taibai saw Qin, and the king of Qin should have the world!" The emperor forced Her Royal Highness Concubine Yang to ask what she was planning, but Concubine Yang refused to say anything, so the emperor ordered the execution! ”

Shimin's body was as heavy as lead, and he walked in front of her step by step, his slender fingers were as pale as paper, and he trembled lightly and lifted Wei Qi's shoulder, "This must be a conspiracy between the eldest brother and Yuan Ji, Father Emperor, he can not believe me, he can come at me, but how can he punish Zixuan?!" ”

The handsome and immortal faces of the people of the world are bloodless at this moment, and the King of Qin, who is usually bright, has empty eyes at this time.

The pain, only the pain, came from the bottom of his heart bluntly, and the cane seemed to be not hitting Zixuan's body but hitting the hearts of the people, hitting the most vulnerable part of his heart one by one.

Wei Qi and Yin Ruyi had never seen such a soulless world, and they were so anxious that they cried.

Yin Ruyi said: "Second Highness, this is not the time to be sad, you have to find a way to save Concubine Yang quickly!" ”

"Yes, Second Highness, Concubine Yin is right, the top priority is to gather everyone in the Qin Palace's mansion to find a way!" Wei Jue said.

Shimin said, "You are right. (To be continued......)
