Chapter 899: A Strange Banquet
When Hu Seng saw Li Shimin, he hurriedly got up and said, "Your Majesty, the villain is also forced by others to do this kind of thing!" Please spare your little life! ”
Hu Seng was very desperate, just now he picked his throat more than once, wanting to spit out the pill, but he just didn't vomit.
Now, if he wants to survive, he can only find something to induce vomiting.
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Tell me, what will happen if you eat that pill, I can find the imperial doctor to induce vomiting for you." ”
Hu Seng hurriedly said: "This elixir, if you eat it, you will slowly become weak and weak, at most after seven days, people's longevity will continue to decrease, until you are sick in bed, and you will die soon after three or five days." ”
After listening to Hu Seng's words, Li Shimin was afraid for a while. What kind of elixir of immortality is clearly a poison that urges people's lives. If he hadn't woken up, he probably still felt that he could live forever at this time!
got the answer he wanted, but Li Shimin did not send the imperial doctor to Hu Seng to induce vomiting, but ordered the guards to never allow Hu Seng to go out of this door again.
In Hu Seng's miserable plea for mercy, Li Shimin walked out of the courtyard with a black face.
Li Ke was at the door, and when he saw his father coming out, he knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he could only wait hard.
Seeing Li Ke, Li Shimin did not get angry.
"Come with me."
After speaking, Li Shimin took the lead in walking forward.
Although Li Ke was confused, he could only follow behind his father.
The father and son walked out of the eunuch's courtyard and returned to the front of the main hall of Jiucheng Palace.
The originally red steps had been cleaned, and a group of eunuchs were spraying diluted perfume on the ground at this time.
Although perfume smells fragrant, it can't cover the bloody smell of human blood.
Walking up the steps, halfway through, Li Shimin turned around and asked Li Ke: "Li Ke, I ask you, what do you think of the position of the emperor?" ”
Hearing this question, Li Ke's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate.
Asking this question at this point in time, he really couldn't guess what his father meant.
Recalling what the master said, "Telling the truth may be hated, but it can make people feel sincere", Li Ke could only say: "In the past, Erchen felt that it was very cool to be an emperor, and he also fantasized about being an emperor, with great power in his hands, and the world to take it away. However, after following the master for a long time, especially after finding something he likes, Erchen felt that being an emperor was the same thing. Compared with ordinary people, the emperor is involuntary for many times, and he is a little miserable..."
Speaking of this, Li Ke hurriedly said: "My father forgives my sins, and my son is vain." ”
Li Shimin shook his head and continued to walk up.
"You're right, it's true that being an emperor is involuntarily a lot of the time. If you have never been an emperor, you will never know the hardships of being an emperor. It is said that the emperor is in power and is the first person in the world, but so what? I'm still a mortal after all, hehe. ”
Li Ke knew that his father was very confused at this time, but he really didn't know how to persuade him.
It was his younger brother who rebelled, and whether he pleaded for mercy or asked for a heavier punishment, it was not appropriate, and he could only stay out of the matter.
The father and son walked up the steps, and the alchemy furnace that was originally standing here had been carried away, leaving only a circle of scorched black, as if satirizing Li Shimin's ignorance.
Looking at this scorched black, Li Shimin felt disgusted.
"Li Ke, go down and order, let's go back to Chang'an tomorrow!"
After leaving Chang'an for so long, Li Shimin felt that it was time for him to go back.
Li Ke nodded, went down and ordered the people to prepare to move back to Chang'an.
Although there was such a major event as usurpation, the surroundings of Jiucheng Palace, whether it was the hands of the eldest grandson Wuji, or the Baiqi Division and the Qianniu Guard, were very calm.
Everything has to wait for the emperor's order.
Whether it's the convictions within the Hundred Knights, or the handling of these assassins.
In the evening, as soon as Leng Feng woke up, he was called by Li Shimin to eat.
I don't know why this guy is still in the mood to eat at this time, Leng Feng has no choice but to go to the banquet.
This dinner was a little sumptuous, but the people involved were a little messy.
Li Shimin is here, Li Ke is here, the eldest grandson Wuji is here, and what makes Leng Feng scratch his head the most is that Li Zhi and Zhang Wen are actually here.
Li Zhi, whose face was swollen on both sides, was wearing leg cuffs, and he seemed to be uncomfortable sitting there.
There was no way, the two fierce members of the Hundred Cavalry Division stood on either side of him with their knives unsheathed, and they cut him as long as he made the slightest move.
Finding a place to sit down, Leng Feng looked at Li Shimin, waiting for him to speak.
Turning his head to look at Leng Feng, Li Shimin said: "Protector of the country, if it weren't for you to make me wake up, I'm afraid I would have fallen ill by this time, and I owe you again." ”
After speaking, Li Shimin held a wine glass and saluted Leng Feng.
Leng Feng could only pick up the wine glass and have a drink with Li Shimin.
After drinking, Li Shimin looked at Zhang Wen and said in a low voice: "Zhang Wen, are you guilty?" ”
Zhang Wen, who was sitting, immediately stood up, left the table and knelt on the ground: "Weichen is punished, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
The emperor's hundred horsemen were infiltrated by people, and there were so many traitors, Zhang Wen, as the supreme leader, naturally had to bear the primary responsibility.
Normally, such a crime is enough to lose your head.
Although he knew that his head was not safe when he learned that there were ghosts in the Baiqi Division, Zhang Wen still insisted on completing Li Shimin's various orders and insisted on pleading guilty after the matter was over.
Li Shimin sighed: "Get up, although you are guilty, but, you have followed me for many years, and you don't know how many times you have been sold, how can I deal with you." Tomorrow, you will hand over the power of the leader and go home to retire. ”
Hearing the emperor's arrangement, Zhang Wen's eyes couldn't help but moisten.
As the emperor's henchman, if something like this happens, the Baiqi Division will definitely face a great purge, at this time the emperor deprives him of his power and allows him to retire, but instead takes care of him.
"The minister commands."
After kowtowing again, Zhang Wencai stood up, this banquet was a thank you banquet for Leng Feng, and for him, it was a departure banquet.
After arranging Zhang Wen, Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji: "Although Zhao Guogong is late to save the car, but after all, he has taken action, I don't know what kind of reward Zhao Guogong wants?" ”
In the past, with the friendship between the emperor and the eldest grandson Wuji, he never directly rewarded anything. Nowadays, it sounds like something is wrong.
The eldest grandson Wuji left the table and handed over his hand, and said without changing his face: "Weichen is late to save the driver, Your Majesty has not punished, he is already taking care of Weichen, how dare Weichen ask for a reward again." ”
Li Ke, who was sitting next to Leng Feng, couldn't help but whisper: "This old fox, pretending to be really powerful. I admire his cheekiness, how thick it has to be. ”
Leng Feng nodded Li Ke on his toes and motioned him to shut up.
This banquet is full of weirdness, and the most suitable thing is to watch it honestly as a bystander.
