"Zhou Jin is here?" Li Shimin asked in a cold voice.

The attendant of the report was so frightened that before he dared to speak, he heard Li Shimin say impatiently: "Don't pass him in quickly." ”

The waiter was frightened and ran out of the ground.

Li Shimin sat down with an angry face when he saw it, waiting to settle accounts with Zhou Jin.

After a while, Liu Zheng and Zhou Jin came in together.

"Chen Liu Zheng (Zhou Jin) to see Your Majesty."

Li Shimin looked at Zhou Jin's eyes on fire, his chest rising and falling, obviously angry.

After a while, he said angrily: "Zhou Jin, you did a good thing, even the prince was affected, and you still dare to come to see me?"

Zhou Jin's heart was also on fire when he heard this, and he raised his head and looked at Li Shimin straight and said, "What did the minister do wrong, and it will affect His Royal Highness the Prince?"

The courtiers and the emperor replied that they couldn't look up at the emperor, and Zhou Jin not only looked at it but also kept watching, which not only made Li Shimin very annoyed, but even the other people in the palace were worried about him.

Li Shimin's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he said coldly: "It seems that the prince favors you too much on weekdays, so that you, a dwarf, don't even care about the dignity of the monarch and the minister." ”

Turning his head to look at Dai Zhide, he said, "You tell him." ”

Dai Zhide was taken aback when he heard that Zhou Jin was coming, and he was really afraid that Zhou Jin would say something.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin and Zhou Jin both had knots, and when the two of them met, they didn't talk about business, they choked on fire first, and at this time they were overjoyed to hear Li Shimin let him speak.

Dai Zhide thought about it for a while and pretended to sigh and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhou Jin sent you to Song County to be a local county official and a herdsman for the imperial court, you can't be bold enough to kill innocents indiscriminately just because of His Royal Highness the Prince's support——"

"Presumptuous! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is far away in Chang'an, how can he climb the pollution at will. Before Dai Zhide's words were finished, Liu Zheng reprimanded.

Dai Zhide's face was frightened, and he saluted Li Shimin and said: "The minister lost his words, please punish Your Majesty." ”

"Alright, let's talk about it!"

Li Shimin said irritably.

Seeing this scene, Ma Zhou and Yu Suiliang were both shocked, and Zhou Jin was also angry.

Staring at a pair of red eyes, he asked, "When did the official of the assassination kill innocents indiscriminately?"

"Zhou Jin County ordered you to kill at the gate of the county government as soon as you arrived in Song County yesterday, and ordered your entourage to kill one or two hundred people who petitioned, do you think you can hide from the world?" Dai Zhide looked at Zhou Jin with contempt.

Zhou Jin was even angrier when he heard him slandering himself, and shouted loudly: "How can this be reasonable, I just ordered the killing of thirteen chaotic people of the Three Ming Immortal Sect, how did I kill one or two hundred petitioning people?" How can Heavenly Reason Zhaozhang allow you to fall above black and white?"

Zhou Jin was furious, pointing at Dai Zhide as if he was going to choose someone to do.

"If there is anything in front of His Majesty Zhou Jin, you just have to say it directly." Ma Zhou couldn't stand it and reminded him.

"He relies on someone to support him, where will he put me in his eyes?" Li Shimin said coldly.

"Zhou County ordered you to quickly report to Your Majesty about the rebellion of the Sanming Immortal Sect." Liu Zheng also saw that he couldn't let Zhou Jin and Li Shimin choke anymore.

"The Three Ming Immortal Sect is reversed?"

As soon as Liu Zheng's words came out, everyone in the hall except Dai Zhide was shocked, everything involved in rebellion was not a trivial matter, no matter how big or small, Li Shimin looked at Zhou Jin in surprise and anger and waited for him to speak.

"Your Majesty, Cai Wenying, the Red Fire Holy Mother of the Sanming Immortal Sect, kidnapped the Dao King and raised the banner to rebel, claiming to be Emperor Wenjia." Zhou Jindao.

The people in the temple didn't know what to say for a while.

Dai Zhide was the first to react, plopped on the ground, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty's ministers are guilty, and after receiving Qin Huaiyi's note yesterday, they should go to Song County overnight to calm down the people's grievances, but the ministers are afraid ——, ask Your Majesty to punish the crime!" ”

Dai Zhide didn't say what he was afraid of, but everyone present knew that he was afraid of Li Chengqian.

"Did you force the people to rebel?" Li Shimin was already extremely angry at this time.

"Your Majesty, the Sanming Immortal Sect rebelled yesterday, obviously because it was prepared, and Zhou County's order only arrived in Song County yesterday......" Yu Suiliang slowly defended Zhou Jin, wanting to push out the charge of forcing the people to rebel.

"Zhou Jin only arrived yesterday, but Xue Dading has been in the two counties for several months, and the East Palace has sent others to ......," Li Shimin retorted angrily.

Ma Zhou, Yu Suiliang, and Liu Zheng listened to Li Shimin's words, but they couldn't find the words to defend Li Chengqian for a while.

Zhou Jin saw that Li Shimin was so indisputable about right and wrong, and directly wronged Li Chengqian, and his lungs exploded.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not wrong with the policy, the construction of water conservancy in the territory of the Tang Dynasty is an important item written into the 'first Tang Dynasty ten-year planning outline', and it is the national policy of the Tang Dynasty for the next ten years after thousands of banquets and thousands of people, approved by hundreds of officials, and approved by His Majesty.

Why do the people of Song County and Yichuan County oppose it?

If it weren't for the officials of Dai Thorn Shi and Yichuan Song County who allowed the cult to fool the people, how could there be Cai Wenying's claim to be emperor?

Your Majesty is from Xu Yingming, why can't you see this?"

Zhou Jin looked at Li Shimin straight as he spoke, waiting for Li Shimin to give him an answer.

Li Shimin was already relieved when he heard Zhou Jin's words, but he didn't expect that the last sentence would implicate him, and he was furious in his heart.

Pointing at Dai Zhide and saying, "You tell him!" ”

Dai Zhide listened to Zhou Jin's words, and almost laughed when he saw Li Shimin angry.

However, Dai Zhide was also proficient in learning, so he didn't argue with Zhou Jin head-on, and said directly to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, according to the ministers, that Cai Wenying is a little woman, and I want to say that a woman wants to make some witch cups or be credible, and it is really difficult to convince people to rebel against the emperor." ”

"Bastard, how can a woman be called an emperor?" Li Shimin was furious when he heard this.

Several other ministers in the room also thought it was incredible, Zhou Jin said that Cai Wenying rebelled and called himself Emperor Wenjia, and they all thought that Cai Wenying was a man.

Zhou Jin saw that Li Shimin didn't believe him at all, so he became more and more angry, and replied directly: "Your Majesty, Holy Tomorrow, you should know that there is no distinction between men and women? Cai Wenying and other evil cultists are just bewitched by traitors and rebellious, how can there be rules to follow?

Don't say that women can't be called emperors, if they don't rebel according to the laws of the Tang Dynasty! ”

"Bang Bang"

Li Shimin was furious, waved his hand and smashed all the things on the table, and scolded loudly: "Traitorous villain, you forced the people to rebel, but you came to deceive me, and someone came to put Zhou Jin in prison." ”

"No!"

Before the guards outside the hall came in, the grief-stricken Zhou Jin roared, and suddenly jumped up and hit the corner of the case in front of Li Shimin, with a "bang", and fell to the ground with a bloody head.

When Zhou Jin jumped up, everyone in the hall was startled, and they were relieved to see him hit the corner of the case.

Li Shimin's face turned purple, and he looked down condescendingly at Zhou Jin, who was bleeding from his forehead.

"Zhou Jin, you, what are you doing here?"

Zhou Jin's face turned pale at this time, and he said in a low voice: "Chen, he was born short, but he has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, and he has never done anything that violates etiquette and transgressions.

The minister participated in the imperial examination and won the Jinshi in one fell swoop, but he was not used by the imperial court. The minister stayed in Chang'an only to repay the rare hope that one day he could serve the imperial court, even if he was a small official, he would live up to what he had learned in his life. ”

Zhou Jin said this, Ma Zhou and others were moved, and Li Shimin was also silent.

"In the past two years, whether the minister has been in the East Palace to deal with the case and documents, or to go away to do what he has done, although he does not dare to call it meritorious, but there is no fault, there is no merit and hard work.

The minister thinks that he has no failure to the Tang Dynasty in his life! Fail the people! Nothing less than the world!

Why did the Lord of the Holy Wisdom abandon him? ”

Speaking of this, his eyes were still looking straight at Li Shimin, and after a while, Zhou Jin was getting less and less angry, but his two eyes were still looking at Li Shimin.

"Tell the Imperial Doctor to heal his wounds." Li Shimin said with difficulty.

"Hurry up and carry Lord Zhou to the Imperial Doctor!" Ma Zhou said with tears in his eyes.

Several chamberlains hurriedly stepped forward to carry Zhou Jin out, and the people in the house knew that Zhou Jin would not survive when they looked at Zhou Jin's situation, and their hearts were a little heavy.

After a while, Ma Zhou wiped away his tears, saluted Li Shimin, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, because of his short stature, Zhou Jin has experienced difficulties in Chang'an, and his temperament is inevitably a little extreme. ”

Li Shimin nodded silently, and regretted it in his heart, what would people think of him when such a thing was passed on to future generations?

"Your Majesty, although Zhou Jin is extreme, he doesn't believe it when he says that he bullied the monarch and ministers." Yu Suiliang finally seized the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, the ministers will never dare to bully the king!" Dai Zhide was immediately shocked when he heard this.

Li Shimin ignored Dai Zhide and asked Liu Zheng directly: "What did Zhou Jin say when he came?"

Liu Zheng hurriedly replied, "The minister heard that there was a rebellion in Song County outside the door, so he immediately brought Zhou Jin to report it, and he didn't dare to ask more. However, there were a few other people who came with Zhou Jin, all of whom were from the East Palace-"

"Come on, pass in the people who came with Zhou Jin!" Before Liu Zheng finished speaking, Li Shimin immediately said.

Several people in the room were waiting with solemn expressions.

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhou is dying." The chamberlain who carried Zhou Jin out just now came in to report.

Li Shimin's expression was complicated when he heard this, and he silently waved his hand to signal him to go down.

As soon as the chamberlain went down, the chamberlain who had gone to pass on the heirs came in.

"Your Majesty, the people who came with Lord Zhou are no longer at the gate of the palace."

Well?

Everyone in the house was puzzled, shouldn't the people who came with them wait for Zhou Jin at the door?

When Li Shimin heard that he couldn't find Zhou Jin's entourage, he immediately said angrily: "Bastard thing! Can they still run away after a while?"

The servant who came to report the news was frightened, and hurriedly kowtowed: "The slave will send someone to find it." ”

As he spoke, he ran out tremblingly.

Li Shimin gasped angrily, and when he saw Dai Zhide who was still kneeling on the ground, he said loudly: "Dai Zhide, you are also a famous family, and you have been doing Luozhou Assassin History for several years, why did you make a Sanming Immortal Sect in Luozhou?"

"Your Majesty, minister, minister......" Dai Zhide was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.

Dai Zhide originally prepared to slander Xue Dading and Zhou Jin, but after Zhou Jin was killed on the spot, these reasons could not be said.

"The son has something important to ask to see his father!" At this moment, Li Zhi's voice came in from outside.
