The Imperial Palace, the Hall of the Two Rites.

Li Shimin stroked his short beard with his left hand and sat behind the dragon case with a solemn face.

And Li Yuanba and several princes all stood in front of Li Shimin, bowing their heads and not saying a word, as if they had done something wrong.

Just now, Li Yuanba had already reported the matter of Yang Jun, as well as Jiangzhou Assassin Shi Honghaiyang and others to Li Shimin completely, without the slightest concealment.

After a long while, Li Shimin suddenly said with a gloomy face: "Yuanba, in your opinion, Yang Yin's matter is true?" ”

"Nature is true! That Hong Haiyang had already been scared away at that time, it was impossible to hide it, and if the box of correspondence was forged, what was the purpose? Li Yuanba also replied in a heavy tone.

"In that case, it seems that I really need to investigate this matter thoroughly!" Li Shimin's voice was full of murderous intent.

As the prince of the former dynasty of Yang Hui, the king of Qi, it is naturally a taboo for Li Shimin.

If he is still alive, with his business in Jiangzhou over the years, even if it does not set off a big storm, it will definitely stir up a storm and make some of the states and counties of Datang chaotic for some time.

The stability of the Tang Dynasty is what Li Shimin is most worried about now, so all the reasons for the potential safety hazards for the Tang Dynasty must be eradicated and no future troubles will be left!

……

In the afternoon, Li Yuanba, Li Chengqian and others went back to their homes, and no one stayed, because Li Shimin was not in the mood to eat again at the moment, and today's shock was enough.

Li Yuanba returned to the palace of Chang'an City, and just entered the door, Wu Shun, whose lower abdomen was slightly visible, greeted the door with the support of his two younger sisters.

Li Yuanba was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps forward to hold Wu Shun's small hands, and said, "It's a little cold outside, why come out in person?" ”

"The prince has been away from home for half a month, and the concubine is ...... The concubine body really misses it tightly. That's why it's ......" Wu Shun's little face was a little red, after all, in front of his sister, Wu Shun would still feel very shy when he said such ambiguous words.

"You!" Li Yuanba nodded the tip of Wu Shun's upturned nose and said, "Let's go, quickly follow this king into the house, this trip to Jiangzhou, this king has also prepared a little gift for you!" ”

While saying this, Li Yuanba walked towards the middle courtyard house with Wu Shun in his arms.

It's two worlds inside and out, and it's freezing cold outside. Inside, it's as warm as spring.

Supporting Wu Shun to sit carefully on the kang, Li Yuanba seemed to be magical, and three vivid purple butterflies appeared in his hands.

"Wow, that's beautiful!"

Wu Shun's third sister, Wu Sanniang, was the most lively, and when she first saw the butterfly that appeared in Li Yuanba's hand, but was half the size of a baby's fist, she screamed in shock.

Wu Zhao was much more steady, although there was a look of surprise in his eyes, but he still forcibly stabilized.

Li Yuanba picked up a purple butterfly. Gently put it on Wu Shun's hand and said, "How is it, do you like it?" ”

A bright smile appeared on Wu Shunqiao's face, and she nodded ecstatically. Said: "Husband, what is this?" ”

Li Yuanba didn't speak, but took the butterfly from Wu Shun's hand again and stuck it on Wu Shun's long silky hair.

There was a soft 'click'. I saw that the beautiful butterfly covered with seven-colored gems was lying on Wushun's long hair lifelikely, and it was extremely beautiful!

"Oh my God! The eldest sister is so beautiful! ”

Wu Sanniang's beautiful big eyes flashed countless little stars. The sound was amazing.

"Okay, you little ghost elf, the remaining two, you and the second sister each have one!" Li Yuanba glanced at the two beautiful little girls with a smile, and handed the butterfly hairpin in his hand to Wu Zhao and Wu Sanniang respectively.

"Really, give it to me?" Wu Sanniang's voice was full of surprise, she couldn't put it down and looked at the hairpin back and forth, and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Wu Shun's voice was a little cold.

Li Yuanba waved his hand, signaling that the two girls didn't have to care.

In the next few years, Li Yuanba visited several princes close to him in turn, all of whom were old guys of the same generation as Li Yuan, and by the way, he gave a gift brought back from Jiangzhou, purely to walk around politely.

Of course, it was precisely because Li Yuanba walked around like this that the funeral of King Wu's Mansion became a joke, and almost everyone in Chang'an City knew that he was tricked by His Royal Highness King Wu.

Although Yu Shishen's excerpts have been piled up on Li Shimin's dragon case, more people are glad in their hearts, at least this god who can fight well and protect the safety of Datang is not dead, and Datang is safe!

It's strange to say, it's been a few days, and Li Shimin hasn't called Li Yuanba over to ask about certain things, but he is very diligent in going to Dali Temple every day, and he has been soaking for a few hours, and I don't know what he asked inside.

Li Yuanba didn't bother to care about those things, after all, he could be idle now, and maybe he would be busy again!

……

Tai Chi Palace is still the secret room with dim candlelight.

Li Shimin has been too tired in the past few days, because the news he got from the mouths of those traitors in the edict prison of Dali Temple made his mind dizzy, and the anger in his chest rose.

"Got it all figured out?" Li Shimin asked.

Tang Zhong said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, it's all clear!" Although the person in charge after Guyun Village is not His Royal Highness King Yan, his name is Zhu Yousan, and he is the henchman guard of King Yan, and now Zhu Yousan has been controlled by the divine guard, according to his confession, he was instructed by His Royal Highness King Yan to give an order to Guyun Village to assassinate His Royal Highness King Wu! ”

"Smack!"

Hammering the table hard, Li Shimin's face sank into the water, his eyes full of pain and anger.

His sons, before the fourth brother woke up, the relationship was not harmonious, and they were almost divided into many small groups, but since Li Yuanba woke up, the relationship between the princes has finally eased, and the princeling party and the Shu Wang party, which had the most stiff relationship, can be regarded as eliminating the estrangement.

Only this Li You and Li Tai, Li Tai is okay to say, now it is this Li You, who actually sent someone to assassinate his own brother, this is his son, his own son, but what he did also disappointed him very much.

After a while, Li Shimin calmed down a little and said, "Can you find out the reason why King Yan sent someone to assassinate King Wu?" ”

Tang Zhong heard Li Shimin's question, frowned slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu is unscrupulous, probably because he is too close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu, and His Majesty loves His Royal Highness, so His Royal Highness Yan Wang felt that he was neglected, which caused His Royal Highness Yan to be confused for a while, so he sent assassins to ambush His Royal Highness Wu when he went to Qujiang for a banquet, and wanted to kill His Royal Highness Wu Wang, but His Royal Highness Wu Wang was martial and powerful, in order to let His Royal Highness King Yama's plan succeed!" ”

"Just because of such a trifle?" Li Shimin was stunned for a while, and then shook his head, "It's just for such a trivial matter, he will never do such a rebellious thing!" My son, I know it myself! ”

Tang Zhong hesitated for a moment, but finally knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, there is another possibility!" It's just that...... Please forgive your majesty! ”

This has not yet spoken, first forgiveness, it seems that the next topic, even if it is Tang Zhong, who is most trusted by the emperor Laozi, does not dare to say it easily.

"Just say it, I forgive you for your innocence!" Li Shimin waved his hand and motioned for Tang Zhong to get up.

Tang Zhong didn't get up, but gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, the reason why King Yan went to assassinate His Royal Highness King Wu may be to seize the heir......"

"Smack!"

The purple sand teapot that Li Yuanba gave to Li Shimin came out of his hand in an instant, smashed on the ground and fell to pieces.

"Good! This is my son! ”

Li Shimin's face was sneering, if he was just a little disappointed in Li You, then now it turned into anger.

Although he dotes on Li Chengqian and Li Ke, he also has high hopes for other princes.

But he never expected that his son would use assassination to achieve his goal of seizing the heir, although the specific plan is not yet known, but if it is successfully implemented, it must be a major event that shocks the government and the opposition.

This simply made Li Shimin heartache and anger.

But no matter how angry he is, Li You is still the prince of the Tang Dynasty after all, and not many people know about this matter, so Li Shimin can only think about how to deal with this matter first.

……

After Tang Zhongyu reported this information, he told him a few more questions about Li You, and then he retreated.

At this time, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and Tang Zhong was like a shadow, floating out of the palace all the way and heading towards a manor close to the root of the city wall.

The area of this manor is not large, and it is an industry under the name of Li Yuanba.

Of course, our Martial King didn't know that there was such a mansion under his name, otherwise, this thing would have jumped up and down in front of Li Shimin.

At this moment, night had fallen, and the house was not lit with candles and bright lights like other houses.

On the contrary, except for the small courtyard of the detached house in the deepest part of the house, which was faintly lit by candlelight, the other houses were all dark and quiet.

Walking into the courtyard, in the small wing room on the left side of the courtyard, four heavenly guards who were also dressed in black were eating around the table, and in the innermost part of this small wing, there was a small space separated by an iron fence.

This small space looks like a prison cell, and in this small space, a guy with a disheveled hair is imprisoned.

This guy was wearing a tattered brocade robe, and from that point of view, it seemed to be the official robe of the chief of the palace, but he didn't understand why a long history of the palace was locked up here.

The four heavenly guards quickly finished dinner, and at this time, one of the heavenly guards took out a stacked lunch box from under the table, and then walked to the small space, took out four dishes from the lunch box, and handed two large bowls of rice in:

"The food in Piff Pavilion, except for the lack of wine, is enough for you to eat!" (To be continued......)
