Time flowed like water, and seven days passed in a flash.

In the past seven days, the haunted matter of the palace has already spread throughout Chang'an City, and the crown prince Li Shimin has no deeds and no virtues, and he killed his brother and imprisoned his father for the throne, which has long been known by all the people of Chang'an, and even spurned by others.

If it was an ordinary time, things would naturally not have come to this point, but since Li Shimin was haunted by ghosts, the whole person has begun to be a little suspicious all day long, not to mention dealing with political affairs, it is difficult for other people to get close to him within ten steps.

Why is this so?

It's very simple, anyone who is assassinated once, twice, or even several times a day, and these assassinations are still from the guards who originally guarded them, I am afraid that anyone will start to be suspicious!

Guards, generally speaking, only the most trusted people can serve, especially with the identity of Li Shimin, every guard around him can be said to have undergone the strictest selection, but so what?

Under the shadowless and invisible ghosts, even the most loyal people will be possessed and manipulated, and then these closest guards will turn into death, and if Li Shimin is unbearable, he will probably be killed.

Yes, in Li Shimin's opinion, those ghosts didn't just want to torture him, but really wanted to kill him, because once he slept vaguely and almost had his head cut off in a dream.

However, if you don't use those personal guards, those ghosts will still appear, and the ghosts have already shown the means to kill people once, compared to a single person, Li Shimin still chose to let the personal guards protect himself, after all, some personal guards, even if the personal guards are controlled by the ghosts, but Li Shimin has found that these ghosts seem to only be able to control one or two people at a time, and other personal guards can stop it.

And if it's just you, you don't have any helpers at all.

It is precisely because of this that in recent days, Li Shimin's personal guard team has become more and more huge, from the original dozens of people to more than 200 now.

However, Li Shimin will be afraid, and these guards guarding Li Shimin will also be afraid, after all, even if these guards are strict in military discipline, they are also people, whenever they see their comrades being possessed by ghosts and dying, they can't help but feel a sense of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and they don't know when it will be their turn.

Fortunately, Li Shimin also knew that this would bring a lot of psychological pressure to these guards, so he asked the guards to be divided into five groups and replaced every twelve hours, so that the guards had a respite, which did not make the guards collapse their minds.

In the dormitory, Li Shimin's figure is now thinner, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who was originally plump and handsome, was pale at this time, his eye sockets were sunken, his hair was casually draped behind his back, and the beard on his lips and chin had all grown up because he was not taken care of, and he didn't look like the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, Li Shimin is not stupid to stay in the palace, he even wanted to escape from the palace a few days ago, but unfortunately, whether he escaped from the palace or found another place to hide, those ghosts have been following him everywhere, and it is useless to let him hide anywhere.

Even, after leaving the palace, those ghosts were found a lot more often than in the palace, if in the palace, those ghosts only chased and killed him two or three times a day, then out of the palace, those ghosts even appeared seven or eight times a day, more than a dozen times, and became more and more ferocious, almost killed him several times, so that Li Shimin had to return to the palace.

However, at this time, although Li Shimin's description was a little dry, his eyes were red and bright, the red was bloodshot, which seemed to be full of tyranny, and the bright was his madness, like a beast that was about to rush out at any time.

"Your Highness, General Cheng is asking to see you outside!" At this time, a guarded guard walked in, knelt directly on the ground, clasped his fists with his hands, and bowed his head to report.

Li Shimin glanced at the guard with a slight low gaze, and then said in a deep and hoarse voice, "Let him in!" ”

"Yes!"

Soon, the janissary walked in with Cheng Yanjin, and in addition to Cheng Yanjin, he was followed by three soldiers holding wooden boxes.

However, whether it was Cheng Yanjin or these three soldiers, the blades on their bodies had all been unloaded before entering the dormitory.

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" As soon as Cheng Yanjin walked in, he looked at Li Shimin who was sitting on the bed, especially at the pair of red and blood-like eyes, a chill seemed to rise in his heart, and he hurriedly lowered his head and hugged his fist.

"Excuse me!" Li Shimin put his hand on the edge of the bed and said lightly.

"Your Highness!" Cheng Biting Jin thanked him, then straightened up and said again, "Your Highness, the last general is here to return to his life this time, Han Yushan, Cui Chenghe, and Zheng Bojian have already been ambushed. ”

Hearing Cheng Yanjin's words, Li Shimin glanced at the three soldiers holding the wooden box, and saw the three soldiers holding the wooden box lifting the lid of the wooden box in their hands, and suddenly three heads appeared in front of Li Shimin's eyes.

At this time, Li Chengming, who had already been hidden above the main hall, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly when he saw the three heads.

Li Chengming had never seen the three heads in front of him, but it was impossible for him not to have heard the names of Han Yushan, Cui Chenghe, and Zheng Bojian.

As far as he knew, these three people were the main generals of the army of the Gongwei Jingshi in Hua, Tong, and Qi Prefectures, and they were also the people who led the army to help Li Shimin conquer him after responding to Li Shimin this time.

However, he didn't expect that Li Shimin would send someone to kill these three people.

Li Shimin: What is this going to do?

You must know that Han Yushan, Cui Chenghe and Zheng Bojian are said to be from the thousand-year-old family of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, and these three people came to help Li Shimin before, why did Li Shimin kill them instead?

Li Chengming is not an immortal after all, although he has been in the palace most of the time these days, but in fact, he also needs to rest and eat, and it is impossible to follow Li Shimin every step of the way, so he doesn't know why Li Shimin killed these three people, and he doesn't know when he gave the order.

However, for Li Shimin, judging from the past few days, Li Chengming is still quite admired.

This person's will is very firm, even if he has been assassinating him by pretending to be a ghost in the past few days, although he has also been affected a little, but after he stopped, Li Shimin only took a short rest and began to deal with some political affairs.

To be honest, seeing this, Li Chengming's original impression of Li Shimin's ruthlessness has changed a little.

However, the more Li Shimin is like this, the more he can't let him go.

Although he has the capital not to be afraid of Li Shimin, it is impossible to do that kind of stupid thing of letting the tiger return to the mountain.

The enemy is the enemy, and the enemy who dies is the best enemy.
