Zhao Gui was instantly frightened, and then jumped up from his chair.

He had promised the Eighth Prince that he would convey a message to the Eighth Prince to General Li Junxian's guard, but he released their pigeons and ran away in advance.

Zhao Gui thought that this was not a big deal, but he didn't expect the eighth prince to come to the door?

Zhao Gui pushed open the door and saw two people, one old and one young, running towards his house angrily.

When Li Chengfeng saw Zhao Gui, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Zhao Gui, don't run!" ”

"Ah...... Eight, Eighth Prince, why are you here? ”

"Ding, fear from Zhao Gui, naughty value +80!"

Zhao Gui was instantly paralyzed.

Li Chengfeng rolled up his sleeves, ran towards Zhao Gui, grabbed him by the collar, and shouted: "Zhao Gui, how do you calculate the matter of releasing my pigeons?" Do you know that my father almost died? ”

"This, the little one doesn't know, the little one suddenly thought that there was something urgent at home, so he came back early, and the little one didn't expect the consequences to be so serious?"

"So, how are you going to punish you?"

Li Chengfeng and Li Shimin looked at Zhao Gui with fierce eyes.

Suddenly, a serious voice sounded from the backyard of the Zhao family's mansion, shouting: "Presumptuous, who dares to mess around in my Zhao family's mansion?" Zhao Gui, you step down and let the old man come and meet them! ”

I saw a white-bearded old man, with a group of family members, walking towards Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng.

"Come on, arrest the two of them who are making trouble in my house!"

The person who came was Zhao Xuan, the three-grade waiter of the court.

Before, Zhao Xuan heard a subordinate say, someone came to Zhao Gui for trouble?

Although Zhao Xuan didn't know what trouble Zhao Gui caused outside, Zhao Gui was his Zhao Xuan's son, and his son was beaten, could Lao Tzu not protect his son?

Just as the family members held sticks in their hands and surrounded Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng.

Li Shimin suddenly shouted angrily and said, "Bastard, which of you dares to do something to the Eighth Prince?" It's the other way around? ”

"Huh? I? The Eighth Prince? ”

Zhao Xuan's whole person stood in place in a daze.

After Zhao Xuan saw the appearance of the person who came, Zhao Xuan instantly knelt on the ground in fright, kowtowed: "Old, old minister Zhao Xuan, bye, meet the emperor, meet the eighth prince!" ”

Emperor? The Eighth Prince?

Zhao Gui was stunned, looking at the old man and the young man in front of him.

He didn't expect that the old man next to the Eighth Prince was actually Li Shimin, the emperor of the dynasty?

You can't be so unlucky, right? actually provoked the emperor and the eighth prince at the same time?

Zhao Gui also instantly fluttered in fright and knelt down.

Subsequently, Zhao Xuan ordered the guards to throw away the weapons in their hands and collectively knelt down to Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng.

Li Shimin touched his beard and said majestically: "Well, Zhao Xuan, even if you have eyes, if you don't even know me, then I will really copy your Zhao family's mansion!" ”

Zhao Xuan suddenly wanted to cry without tears, and said: "Your Majesty, my child Zhao Gui, how did you offend the two of you?" Please also ask the emperor, for the sake of the minister's thin face, spare his life, the emperor, the minister is such a child, if he dies, the old minister is a white-haired person to send a black-haired person! ”

As he spoke, Zhao Xuan began to cry.

Li Shimin snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, Zhao Xuan, this matter has nothing to do with you, I just want to ask Zhao Gui, why did he release General Li Junxian's pigeons at that time?" I almost died in the Xuanwu Sect? Zhao Gui, how do you bear this sin? ”

Zhao Gui's feet were a little paralyzed, and he did promise the Eighth Prince at that time, saying who he was waiting for, and then telling them the whereabouts of the Xuanwu Sect.

Zhao Gui thought that this was not a big deal, but he didn't expect that the emperor almost died in the Xuanwu Sect because of this incident?

Zhao Gui trembled and said: "Back to the emperor, the small, the little one didn't know that such a big thing would happen?" At that time, the little one was just afraid of getting into trouble with officialdom, so he went home early, but the little one didn't expect the consequences to be so serious? ”

Li Shimin also knew that the matter of him being captured by Xuanwu Sect had nothing to do with Zhao Gui.

He came this time mainly to scare Zhao Gui.

Immediately afterwards, Li Chengfeng said: "Zhao Gui, do you know how many major sins you have committed?" ”

"Back to the Eighth Prince! Little ones don't know! ”

"Okay, then let me tell you!"

Li Chengfeng snapped his fingers and said, "First, you promised me, but you didn't keep your credit?" This is a deception of royal dignity! This is unbelief! Second, you made a fortune in the country and raised the price of rice? This is unrighteousness! Third, as a person from the Tang Dynasty, you used this way to welcome the Emperor and the Eighth Prince of the Tang Dynasty? This is infidelity! ”

"Therefore, you are a disloyal and unrighteous unbeliever, so you can kill it!"

"Ding, fear from Zhao Gui, naughty value +100!"

"Ding, the horror from Zhao Xuan, naughty value +120!"

Zhao Gui's whole person was paralyzed on the ground in fright, and said: "I was wrong Eighth Prince, please forgive me, I really know that I was wrong, please bypass me, I promise you everything, as long as you don't kill me!" ”

Suddenly, Zhao Xuan also knelt down in front of Li Shimin, kowtowed heavily, and said: "Your Majesty, please also spare my son Zhao Gui for the sake of the old minister's many years of service to the Tang Dynasty, he is just confused for a while, confused for a while!" ”

In fact, the mistake made by Zhao Gui is not so serious.

Li Shimin and Li Chengfeng came to him, just to get a bad breath.

The son of a small official, how dare he deceive the Eighth Prince? According to Li Chengfeng's character of revenge, he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

"Feng'er, what do you think?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengfeng.

Kill, it shouldn't kill Zhao Gui.

After all, he didn't commit any serious crimes.

Li Chengfeng curled the corners of his mouth, looked at Zhao Gui, and said, "Zhao Gui! ”

"Yes, the little one!"

"Don't say that we royal people are ruthless, the mistakes you make, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped! Because you set up prices and raise the price of private grain, the emperor and I are ready to fine you 100,000 catties of grain and donate it to the country, what do you think? ”

After Li Chengfeng finished speaking, Zhao Gui was dumbfounded.

"Ten, 100,000 gold grain?"

However, Zhao Xuan hurriedly answered, knelt down and bowed to Li Chengfeng, and said, "Thank you for the grace of the Eighth Emperor for not killing, thank you for the emperor's grace of not killing!" We promised the Eighth Prince and the Emperor to take out 100,000 catties of grain to offset the mistakes made by my son Zhao Gui! Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince, what do you think? ”

"Well, the emperor is very satisfied!"

"Okay, since the Eighth Prince is satisfied, then I have nothing to say!"

"Thank you for your grace!"

Zhao Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

exchanging 100,000 catties of grain for his son's life is worth it, it's very worthwhile.
