"Junji, I have given you a task, haven't you been working hard to study literature recently, learning the benevolence of the ancient sages? For the next year, you studied the ancient sages in the Luguo Mansion behind closed doors. www.biquge.info As for the position of the general of the Left Guard, I will keep it for you, and the military power will be in the hands of your deputy for the time being......"

Hou Junji only heard these few words, and he was already shocked. He couldn't listen to what Li Shimin said afterwards.

This year's hard reading is Li Shimin's true intention, but Hou Junji heard it as polite words, he thinks that this is actually a confinement, which is called thinking behind closed doors in ancient times.

It also means that he Hou Junji can only stay at home for the next year, as if he is in prison, he can't participate in court politics, and he can't go into battle, which also means that a year later, he is still only the general of the left guard, and Li Jing, Qin Feng, Li Ji and others may sweep away all the enemies within this year, when the time comes, how can he Hou Junji have anything to do?

"Impossible, impossible! Your Majesty, Your Majesty, how could you treat me like this! No, no, Your Majesty, how could you do this to me! He has a strong personality and is loyal to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin is also extremely kind to him, and he does not believe that Li Shimin will make such a holy decree at all.

His mind was at a loss, his limbs were stiff as stones, and cold sweat was dripping down.

"Impossible, impossible! Your Majesty won't do this to me, I don't believe it, I don't believe it! The first thing he did when he came to his senses was to shout frantically and scream frantically.

Li Shimin said with deep meaning: "Junji, the first thing to be a person is to be a person, and to be an official is to have the mind to accommodate everything, I hope you can really understand my hard work!" His eyes twinkled, and he contained everything, as if he knew everything.

Hou Junji sat on the ground. The whole person has become stupid and stupid.

Throughout the ages, those who have truly achieved great things have all gone through many trials. And those who are talented and smooth sailing are often defeated in their own hands because they can't stand a failure.

Hou Junji is just such a person.

He was born humbly and suffered from the eyes of the world since he was a child, so he longed to be on top and become a master, so he practiced archery and horse riding and archery since he was a child, and studied the art of war and other skills.

When he was young, he became Li Shimin's staff, went out with the army many times, and made achievements in martial arts, which soon attracted the attention of Li Shimin, who attached importance to and cherished talents. Become a focus on training treatment. He also lived up to Li Shimin's respect, offered advice many times, and became one of the backbones of the Qin Palace.

After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he rewarded the heroes, and Hou Junji's status was second only to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jing and a few others. He was promoted to the top priority of the general of the Left Guard, and became one of the top generals in the Tang Dynasty at a young age.

It can be said that Hou Junji's career has been smooth sailing and has not been hindered in any way. His personality is the kind of person who is prone to complacency. Characters who feel good about themselves are so valued by Li Shimin, and even think that Li Shimin can't do without him, and they will leave a story for the ages like those Ming monarchs and ministers in history.

For Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, they all have an attitude of rejection in their hearts, thinking that even without them, they will be as strong as they are now, or even stronger.

But Li Shimin's current attitude made him feel dead and couldn't accept this cruel fact.

"Whoever it is, it must be whoever maliciously slanders me. Your Majesty, is my Hou Junji's loyalty to you fake? Why do this to me! He shouted heartbreakingly, but tears kept flowing, and he was very aggrieved.

"Nope! Junji, your loyalty, I know it very well, but what you did today is too much, you are my henchman to be qualified to know my layout in Goguryeo, I let you know that this is trust. But you, but this secret about the future of the Tang Dynasty and the face of the Tang Dynasty is made public, if this is known to the Goguryeo people, then it will be repaid, to put it mildly, you are open-mouthed, as the general of the Left Guard, don't you even know the most basic calamity from your mouth? You can't control your mouth, and if you accidentally leak the news to others in the future, I don't know how much loss I will suffer? Seriously, you're leaking military information. No matter what dynasty it was, it was a felony to divulge military secrets, let alone secrets that involved the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers......"

Li Shimin is indeed embarrassed in his heart, on the one hand, Hou Junji has indeed made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and he is one of the arms he relies on; On the other hand, Hou Junji is becoming more and more difficult to control, and his work is becoming more and more out of line, and his deliberate leakage not only made Li Shimin almost unable to step down today, but also exceeded the scope of a courtier, which really made him unbearable, so that he turned a blind eye. Especially seeing that Hou Junji, who is still unrepentant now, knows that his past connivance has made him arrogant to the limit, so he decided to punish him with a small punishment and a big commandment. Let him know that there are some things that he can bear, but some things that he cannot bear.

Words have no intention, but listeners have hearts.

When Hou Junji, who had a ghost in his heart, heard what Li Shimin said, "No matter what dynasty it is, leaking military secrets is a serious crime, let alone a secret related to the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers." He suddenly came to his senses, and his face was even paler than just now.

"What's wrong?" Li Shimin saw that Hou Junji stopped shouting all of a sudden, and his face changed greatly, Li Shimin's heart suddenly became alert, he knew that one of his words had poked Hou Junji's sore spot.

Recalling what he had just said, Li Shimin's face also changed, and he said in a condensed voice: "Last time, the prince and Qin Feng acted in secret, but their whereabouts were maliciously leaked, and they almost let the Wumeng tribe, Ashina Sheer, and Zhizhi Sili stay in the grassland. You can't do this, right? After Li Shimin finished speaking, a pair of tiger eyes stared at Hou Junji majestically.

"No, absolutely not. Even if the minister has a lot of unbearable things, he will not do such a thing. Hou Junji flatly denied it.

As Li Shimin said, "No matter what dynasty it was, leaking military secrets was a serious crime, let alone a secret that involved the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers." ”

At the beginning, Li Chengqian and Qin Feng concluded that someone had leaked their marching route. Later, Li Shimin asked the Criminal Department and Dali Temple to investigate, but these two departments have not come up with an answer for a long time.

Because this case involved almost all of Li Shimin's regents, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple had to be careful to verify it.

Li Shimin also understood the difficulties of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, so he did not urge, but just asked them not to wronged the good people and not to let go of the bad people.

A few days ago, Qin Feng also asked about this.

With Qin Feng's character, of course he would not easily give up the villain who was against him behind his back. But he doesn't want to get too caught up in it, he has his career, he has his connections, and it's not his job to catch leakers.

Abolishing the public for personal reasons is not a wise choice, so Qin Feng himself pays attention to the secret investigation, and basically no longer cares, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple are in this business, and the investigation experience is far richer than him. He doesn't care about the process, as long as there is a result, a result that he has an explanation for himself and the soldiers.

Qin Feng doesn't care about the process, it doesn't mean that Li Shimin doesn't care, it doesn't mean that the officials of the Criminal Department and Dali Temple don't care.

Almost all ancient dynasties had a law, the country was unprecedentedly powerful at the time of its founding, but with the passage of time, one generation was inferior to the next, which was inseparable from the lack of training of kings and ministers. Now the Tang Dynasty has just established the country. Most of the Korean Chinese martial arts were promoted by virtue of real skills. Most of them are capable and leveled, and they dare to manage things and can manage things.

After the leak case started, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have been keeping an eye on it, and they have joined forces to find out the traitors behind the scenes. Not long ago, Li Shimin also specially listened to the reports of Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing, and also knew that the matter was somewhat clear. The question he just asked came out of his mouth, but Hou Junji's panic made Li Shimin suspicious, but he was not a faint monarch who acted recklessly, and in the absence of conclusive evidence, he could not cure Hou Junji's crime, so he said nonchalantly: "Well! I see. Okay, tomorrow, you'll be studying at home. I don't know how to be a secretary of the military department, and how to get out of the general. In the end, Li Shimin still comforted this member.

"Whoa!" How dare Hou Junji say anything, he is in turmoil, he is only worried about the incident in the east window, where does he have time to worry about other things, if he can't avoid this pass, don't say that he will enter the phase, and his current status will be difficult to protect, first find a way to survive the catastrophe in front of him, and then say, "Your Majesty, the minister will retire first!" ”

"Well, go ahead!" Li Shimin responded.

Hou Junji only felt a chill down his spine, and his underwear was wet with cold sweat. Out of the Manna Temple, he had a feeling of being reborn as a human being, as if he was reborn.

"Junji, I hope it's not you. Don't let me down. Looking at Hou Junji's back, Li Shimin's expression was very complicated.

**********

Luguo Mansion!

A person sitting alone on the maza, this person has a beard, his eyes are like electricity, and his stern face has an arrogant atmosphere, it is Hou Junji.

Hou Junji is a smart man and an excellent commander, he knows what leaking military information means to an army, and he also knows what kind of big crime it is to leak military information.

As the saying goes, I don't do bad things in my life, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. Hou Junji, who was afraid of the incident, mistakenly thought that Li Shimin had suspected him, and immediately panicked, he knew that today's status and power all came from Li Shimin's trust and giving, once the trust was no longer there, once people found out about his leak, what kind of outcome would be waiting for him.

Hou Junji is not a person who is waiting to be killed, and after returning to the Guogong Mansion, he called a hundred dead henchmen over. He's preparing for the back road!

"Hou Rang, you are the person I trust the most, and the second and third young masters will be handed over to you." Hou Junji took out a letter from his arms, handed it to a fierce young general, and said: "You go all the way west to Shanzhou to find the owner of Qingfeng Inn, give him this letter, and he will know what to do." You are to obey my commands, and you are to be at his disposal. After dark, you go. ”

Hou Junji looked left and right, majestic, looking at the warrior like a sword, and his unsmiling face couldn't help but show a smile. When he looked at his young son, there was a trace of love in his eyes, he stroked the second son's head, and said in a deep voice: "Erlang, Sanlang, no matter what happens in the future, you must obey Uncle Hou." You have to remember that Uncle Hou is your relative! ”

"Father, what happened? So do you have this arrangement? Hou Junji's eldest son asked in a panic.

"Don't ask, don't care! You don't have to know. It's business as usual. ”

There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great!

For fear that Li Shimin would find out about himself, for fear that Li Shimin would exterminate the Nine Clans, he would have to send his two sons away, as for his wife and eldest son, he couldn't leave, because they still needed to come forward on many occasions, and if they disappeared for no reason, even if they couldn't find out about their leaks, some people would suspect that they had done something shady. How can Hou Junji do this kind of thing of giving people a handle? "The Jun family's caravan will set off at night, I will arrange for you to blend in, you can disguise yourself as a caravan guard, and restrain your fierce spirit to me, don't let people see at a glance that you are a warrior of a hundred battles, you all go and prepare now."

"Whoa!"
