On the hunting flag, embroidered with a huge Tang character, a strong army, accompanied by the deafening sound of iron hooves is getting closer and closer.

The defenders on the city wall were extremely nervous, because such a large army actually put out a sharp array and rushed forward, looking like they were going to attack the city, until the people came close before they let go of their minds, and the first general was the saint's henchman Cheng Zhijie, and this army was naturally the saint's pro-army, flying horses.

"Open the door!"

The saint came back, the doorman naturally hurriedly opened the door, originally according to the etiquette system, the Son of Heaven returned to the shelf, it should be flowers to pave the way, sprinkle water to greet, and do enough etiquette, how could he come back suddenly for no reason, no one noticed, and look at this roaring posture, as if to attack the city.

Seeing this, Cheng Zhijie nodded, then rode back and said to Li Shimin: "Back to the saint, everything is as usual in the city, and the door has been opened." ”

"Hehe, as I expected, Zhenheng, this little rabbit cub, has long known that Hou Junji is going to rebel, let's go, go into the city, and go to see my old friend for the last time."

On the other side, in the palace, before the blood on the steps could be cleaned up, they heard the news that Li Shimin suddenly returned to the palace, and everyone was overjoyed, and then Li Chengqian led the palace out of the palace to greet them, although when they went out, Li Shimin was already at the gate of the palace, but it was a meaning, didn't it?

Before, Hou Junji had been swearing that Li Shimin had hung up, although they didn't believe it, but who didn't muttered in their hearts, now it's okay, Li Shimin came back safe and sound, and everyone's hearts can naturally be put in their stomachs.

After getting out of the car, Li Shimin first learned about the whole story with Fang Xuanling, but he didn't say anything, and went straight back to the Zichen Palace.

Qin Hao thought to himself, this time such a big event, it is inevitable that he will take the first credit, it is normal to see himself first, he didn't think too much, and he went.

As a result, as soon as he entered the palace, Qin Hao was a little stupid.

I saw that the warriors on the palace were in a forest, the armor was distinct, each hand was holding a bright blade, a row of slaughtering scenes, Cheng Yanjin held a pole of Ma Shuo, standing in the head, seeing Qin Hao come in, with just a wave of his hand, the door of the Zichen Hall was closed.

This scene is really shocking, Qin Hao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a puff, the key is that he is still confused in his head, what does it mean?

Li Shimin's voice came faintly from behind the curtain, but he didn't open the curtain.

"Zhenheng."

"The minister is here."

"Are you guilty?"

Qin Hao was covered in cold sweat, and his clothes were wet, but he had to say in a panic: "Please also ask the Holy Lord to make it clear, minister... I really don't know where the sin is. ”

"I don't know? I ask you, Hou Junji rebelled, but you induced it? ”

Qin Hao's mouth was bitter, he couldn't admit this kind of thing anyway, so he had to argue: "The minister is afraid, the minister is really afraid, the saint knows me, even if I borrow the courage from the sky, I don't dare to do such a thing, besides, how can the minister be able to lure Hou Junji?" ”

"You dare to say that Hou Junji rebelled, and you didn't know anything about it in advance?"

"Shengshang Mingjian, the minister did notice a little clue before, but first, there is really no evidence, the gap between the minister and Hou Junji, if you rashly report it, no one will believe it, and secondly, the minister himself doesn't believe it, Hou Junji really has such a dog guts, so he didn't say it."

With a brush, the curtain was opened by Li Shimin, and Li Shimin walked up and kicked Qin Hao on the heel, and said angrily: "Clues? Do you still dare to quibble with me until now? I ask you, is it your credit for the Demon Sect's alliance with Hou Junji this time, to be honest! Why don't you think I'm dead? ”

Qin Hao's heart panicked slightly, could it be that Li Shimin really noticed something?

However, Qin Hao still gritted his teeth and said: "No, Holy Mingjian, I have a common enmity with the Demon Sect, and the Demon Sect demon almost asked for the life of the minister twice, how can the minister have anything to do with the Demon Sect?" ”

Li Shimin smiled and nodded: "Okay, good, good, my mouth is hard enough, do you know why I didn't die?" ”

"The Holy Lord is blessed with all the heavens, and Hou Jun gathers a little bit of the way of an assassin, so naturally he can't hurt the Holy One in the slightest."

"No, the Demon Sect is still very well prepared this time, if I hadn't noticed it in advance and deliberately laid it out, I would have been dead now, you don't have to guess, they colluded with Li Junxian, it's nothing more than a combination of inside and outside, I know that the Demon Sect is a big problem, and I guessed that they would collude with important ministers, deliberately created this opportunity for them, and wanted to take the opportunity to catch them all, because I really don't know who they colluded with, so I didn't tell you."

Qin Hao was secretly scared in his heart, and secretly thought, I'm afraid that in addition to this, there is also the purpose of testing the ministers and the prince.

"I didn't expect that this person would be Hou Junji, and I was also very sad, but I had an unexpected gain this time! Qin! Chaste! Constant! I ask you, how did you detect Hou Junji's abnormality, why didn't others look for the demon sect, but found Hou Junji, who has an enmity with you! Answer me, answer well, you will be the new Zhongshu Order tomorrow, if you can't answer, I will cut you now! ”

Qin Hao naturally has a set of rhetoric that has been made up a long time ago, which is nothing more than first detecting the changes in the Demon Sect, and then finding out Hou Junji and the like through the Demon Sect, but at this time, he didn't dare to say it, Li Shimin's cognition of the Demon Sect seemed to be far above his imagination, and he could still use such a trick, and he might not be able to fool him.

Thinking of this, Qin Hao slowly took off his black veil, with tears in his eyes, and said sadly and angrily: "The minister knows that Hou Junji and His Majesty were also brothers and sisters back then, and the minister knew that he was going to rebel, but he didn't report it for a long time, and he did have the selfish intention to get rid of a strong enemy, but the minister asked himself, followed the saint for thirteen years, tried his best, and never had the slightest disloyalty or injustice, if the saint wanted to kill, kill the minister." ”

Li Shimin looked at Qin Hao, who was kneeling on the ground, and was speechless for a long time, before he sighed and said: "Alas, get up, it's me, I'm out of shape for a while, let's go, Xuan Ling is already old, and he has proposed to me many times to give up the post of Zhongshu Ling, but your previous qualifications are still a little shallow, and from tomorrow, you will officially take office." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

…………

It wasn't until Qin Hao withdrew from the Zichen Hall that Cheng Yanjin asked puzzledly: "Holy Lord, this kid just now... Didn't say anything! He still didn't say, how did he know that Hou Junji was going to rebel. ”

"Alas, this time, I lost my temper and didn't say anything, that is, I said everything, Hou Junji was indeed lured by him, the matter of the Demon Sect started in the southwest, poor Hou Junji has been in the southwest for so long, but now the business road is full of people from the Green Gang, hehe, if you want to say that he didn't find any news about the Demon Sect, I don't believe it."

"Then you mean ... It was indeed he who retorted Lao Hou, and he still admitted it? This.... Then you still let him go, and promote him to be a Chinese scholar? ”

"In all dynasties, there has never been a crime, called temptation! How do you let me cure him? If Hou Junji really has no objection, how can he tempt him? As for Zhen Heng, do you still think he is the young man who entered Beijing alone thirteen years ago? Alas! I'm old, I shouldn't ask these words today, I should, pretend to be confused. ”
