Half a year later, Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace, inside the study.

Suddenly, an evil wind blew, and Li Shimin, who was picking up the lamp to review the recital, yawned, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Unconsciously, he fell asleep in a daze, and in a trance, his consciousness seemed to return to his three years ago.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

In the dream, Li Shimin said a golden dragon robe and enjoyed the worship of the ministers.

Suddenly, the sky was stormy, the demon clouds were rolling, and a terrible sound like a ghost scream came out of the demon clouds.

"Li Shimin, you killed your brother and killed your brother, you didn't get the right position, I want to kill you... Kill you..."

"Li Shimin, give me my life back... Give me back my life..."

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who were killed by Li Shimin himself, had blood and tears on their faces, and their faces were full of resentment, poking their heads out of the demon clouds and asking for Li Shimin's life.

…

At the same time, in the East Palace, Yun Shibao, who was meditating and cultivating in the dormitory, seemed to feel something, and suddenly opened his eyes, looking in the direction of Li Shimin's study with his eyes like torches.

"Demonic spirit? How can there be demonic energy in this palace? Feeling the demonic aura in that direction, Yun Shibao's face sank, and he subconsciously wanted to get up and go to Li Shimin's study to check the situation.

But soon, he stopped, glanced at the West with deep intentions, sat cross-legged again, and entered the cultivation state.

…

Looking at Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who were close at hand and asking for their lives with hideous faces, Li Shimin quickly calmed down, drew out the Son of Heaven Sword and picked it at the two.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

There were two soft sounds, dark red blood splashed, and the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were picked off by Li Shimin like a leather ball.

"Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, if I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time..."

However, a frightening scene appeared, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who had their heads removed, not only did not fall, but instead showed a weird smile on their faces.

"Roar!" With two dragon groans, the human head suddenly turned into two dragon heads burning with dark fire, and bit at Li Shimin fiercely.

"No...", Li Shimin woke up from his dream, his forehead was already covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.

"Your Majesty, are you having a nightmare?" Wang De, who was waiting for Li Shimin's daily life, hurriedly handed over a towel and said with a worried face.

"It's okay..." rubbed his forehead with a faint pain, the matter of killing his brother and killing his brother has always been a problem in his heart, the so-called thinking day and night, so Li Shimin did not take this dream to heart.

…

"Daoist Yuan, what is the explanation of this matter?" Seven days later, in the study, Li Shimin said to Yuan Tiangang with a haggard face.

Since that nightmare, as soon as he closes his eyes every night, the evil dragon transformed by Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji will appear in his dream on time and ask for his life.

If once or twice can be explained by coincidence, but it is not a coincidence that these seven days in a row have the same dream.

"Well, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji are unwilling, and it is reasonable for the unjust soul to come back and ask for their lives."

"But Your Majesty don't worry too much, you are the true son of heaven, and the luck of the human race is added, and these two unjust souls can't hurt you."

"If it affects your sleep, you can choose two generals who have been killed for a long time to guard the door for you, and the souls of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji dare not approach your dormitory." After listening to Li Shimin's narration, Yuan Tiangang's eyes flickered and he said in a low voice.

It stands to reason that this palace is the residence of the human emperor, and there are only two possibilities for the appearance of unjust souls, one is that the human emperor has no way, which leads to the decline of the human luck of the human race who protects the imperial city, and the demon takes advantage of the void to enter.

But if the luck drops to this extent, it can almost be said that the country's fortune is lost, and it is estimated that it is not far from the death of the country.

For example, between the gods of the year, there was no way to do business, the nine-tailed fox entered the palace, and the demons were rampant...

However, now the Tang Dynasty is under the rule of Li Shimin, the national fortune is thriving, and the fortune of the human race that shelters the palace is almost condensed into a substantial golden dragon.

Even those unborn demons would never dare to enter the palace at night and harass the emperor to rest.

Not to mention Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, two powerful ghosts who have been dead for more than three years, I am afraid that as long as they touch the walls of the palace, they will be directly destroyed by the luck of the human race, right?

The second reason is that there is a human factor in it, and someone deliberately put the ghosts of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji into the palace.

And Buddhism is booming, and the matter of the Buddhist scriptures crossing to the east is imminent, but Li Shimin, the emperor, has not responded to the matter of the Buddha's eastward crossing to preach...

Yuan Tiangang was an old fox, although he could probably guess the reason for this, but he didn't say it directly.

After all, the great prosperity of Buddhism is the general trend of heaven, and going against the trend will not only violate the way of heaven, but also may offend the Buddhas who are in the sky, which is not worth it.

"A battle-hardened general? Wang De, Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jingde. Hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, Li Shimin pondered for a moment and said to Wang De beside him.

Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jing Derong Ma have been killing the enemy like chopping vegetables and cutting melons, although they can't be compared with the killing gods like Qin Baiqi, but they are not much inferior, and it is appropriate for them to guard the door.

…

On the third day, the gloom on Li Shimin's face finally dispersed a little, he was entangled in nightmares for several days, physically and mentally exhausted, last night with Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jingde guarding the door, he finally slept well, and did not have nightmares.

After coming out of the dormitory, looking at Wei Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong, whose eyes were black and their faces were a little haggard, Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned, and then his face showed a trace of heaviness.

In the early years, he followed himself to fight in the Quartet, Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Jingde had already left a lot of dark wounds on their bodies, and they didn't sleep all night last night, and their mental state was very poor.

It's okay to keep them vigil for a simple day or two, but if they stay outside the dormitory all night every day, it's really hard for them.

"Wang De..." After a moment of silence, Li Shimin shouted to Wang De, who was waiting not far away.

"The old slave is here..."Wang De ran over in a hurry.

"Go and find the best painter in the palace, and when the two generals are rested in the afternoon, they will paint portraits of the two generals." Li Shimin said lightly.

"Your Majesty, this is..."Qin Qiong rubbed his eyes that were a little stiff, and said with some doubts.

"The two generals guarded all night, it was really hard, and I couldn't bear it, so I asked this painter to draw the true faces of the two on paper and paste them on the door, so that they could replace people with paintings and use them as town houses." Li Shimin explained.

"Your Majesty, how can this be, the two of us can stand up..."Qin Qiong hurriedly said.

"I have made up my mind, so I don't need to say more."

"The two generals should go back to their homes and rest early." Li Shimin waved his hand, interrupted Qin Qiong's words, sat on the dragon chariot, and walked towards the Qinzheng Palace.

Because of his poor spirit during this time, Li Shimin has not been in the morning court for two days, which is undoubtedly unacceptable for an emperor who is inspired to be a Ming monarch.
