In the Manna Hall late at night, Li Shimin did not rest.

The Ganlu Hall is the third largest palace in the entire palace complex.

The Taiji Hall is used to meet the hundred officials in the upper court, the Liangyi Hall is used to occasionally hold a small meeting, and the Lizheng Hall is the palace of the emperor and queen.

Here, it is the study of His Majesty Li Er, which has the functions of rest and office.

"These are all poems written by Lu Heng?"

After reading the few pieces of paper in his hand, His Majesty Li Er looked at the eunuch in front of him with surprise in his eyes.

The eunuch respectfully bowed his hand:

"Your Majesty, that's true."

"Early this morning, His Royal Highness King Wei held a poetry meeting in the mansion, and for some reason, Lu Gongzi also went."

"At that time, Princess Changle and Princess Yuzhang happened to be there, so they ordered someone to write down the poems written by Lu Gongzi."

"Princess Yuzhang heard that you had been busy, so she didn't bother, but handed these over to the slave, saying that she would show them to you when you were free."

The more Li Shimin listened, the more outrageous he felt.

Although he didn't have much to do with his children, he had also heard He De say that Lu Heng and Qingque were very uneasy.

It's already nonsense that these two children can meet at the poetry meeting......

How could Lu Heng still write such an amazing story?

He stared at the few poems in his hand and muttered to himself.

""Qingping Tune, Gift to Princess Yuzhang", "Silent Night Thoughts", "Liangzhou Ci", "Out of the Stopper" ......"

"Will enter the wine?!"

Hearing His Majesty speak, the eunuch added at the right time:

"Your Majesty, I heard that Lu Gongzi's favorite is this last song "Will Enter the Wine".

"It's a pity that, according to him, these poems are all accidental in dreams, so some of them only remember a few words."

"That's the case with this song "Will Enter the Wine", only the first half."

Li Shimin was a little shocked and a little regretful.

After reading all the poems, although it is true that each one is amazing, he himself feels that the last one is the most bold, or rather, the most fairy!

He put down the paper in his hand and was about to say something.

Suddenly.

In the palace, which was already silent, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance!

Li Shimin stood up suddenly:

"What's going on?!"

"There are very few people who can usually ride horses into the palace, let alone after the curfew."

"Go and see who it is and what happened! Go! ”

The eunuch was obviously panicked, and thought that someone wanted to start a palace change, so he hurriedly ran out.

But it didn't take long for Li Shimin to see a scene that shocked him.

The gate of the palace that was open because the eunuch ran out.

Two figures slowly appeared.

Lu Heng and He De were covered in blood, and the young man's body seemed to be originally white, but at this time it had been dyed crimson, or even more brown.

The former, with a person dragging in his hand, had his blood in a straight line on the bluestone floor tiles, and both legs had been cut off.

After seeing the face of the injured person clearly, Li Shimin was so shocked that he almost couldn't stand on his feet!

That's Jung In-tae!!

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, this look is a bit offensive."

Lu Heng had blood splashed on his face, and he smiled at Li Shimin with his teeth:

"It's just that it happened suddenly, and this matter must be explained to you immediately."

His Majesty Li Er is not very good now.

It's not that he hasn't seen blood, and it can even be said that he has beheaded more souls under his knife than all the civil officials in the court.

He was the Emperor of the Horse who fought on the battlefield.

But the problem is that no one would drag a half-dead court official into the palace suddenly in the middle of the night!!

"Wait, you wait......"

His Majesty Li Er raised his hand and pressed his temple, and he felt a little pain in his head:

"He De, you go and call the imperial doctor to come over first, no matter why, people can't die here!"

He De obediently obeyed the order and trotted out all the way to call someone.

Li Shimin tried his best to calm himself down.

Half a day.

He finally spoke.

"Lu Heng, you have to give me an explanation."

"No matter what happens, Zheng Rentai is an official of the imperial court after all, and he is also a member of the forbidden army, and he is still outside after the curfew, so he should be on duty."

"Why is this the way it is?"

Looking at His Majesty Li Er's extremely ugly face, Lu Heng was not stunned.

He arched his hand and said confidently:

"The minister accompanied Princess Yuzhang to Princess Changle's mansion today, and after coming out, because there was no carriage, he was ready to walk home."

"When I got home, it was getting late, and I was worried that I would miss the curfew, so I took a shortcut."

"As a result, I ran into a gangster and wanted to assassinate him."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Heng told everything that happened tonight, and he didn't hide or add fuel to it at all.

After saying that, he added:

"All the things that Fang Caichen said, He Lishi and those hundred horsemen can testify."

Li Shimin's face has changed from the color of pig liver to a miserable white.

To be honest, he valued Lu Heng, but before, he was unwilling to sabotage his plan because of the existence of this variable.

He really wants to get rid of the five surnames and seven hopes, but after all, the forces of these families are complicated, and I am afraid that it will take several generations to completely clean up, and it is not something that can be done in a hurry.

Can ...... now

"Why do you cut off his feet?"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes were indifferent, and he looked at Zheng Rentai, who was still struggling on the ground:

"Both legs are cut off, and it's easy to die."

Lu Heng was surprised.

He threw Zheng Rentai down and said with some doubts:

"Don't you want to kill him?"

Li Shimin shook his head.

"He deserves to die, but he shouldn't die at this time."

"He is dead, that is, there is no proof of death, and the family can justify it however they want."

"But as long as he is alive for one day, those people will be afraid and panic all day long, and they will even find a way to send people to the prison to kill him."

"Lu Heng, don't you think this will be better?"

Obviously, now Li Shimin has entered a certain state of rage.

His tone was very calm, his face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he did not even have an expression.

But this kind of Li Shimin is the most terrifying.

His voice was clear:

"I know that they want to turn the emperor of the Tang Dynasty into a puppet in their hands, just like the Wei and Jin dynasties......"

"But I never expected them to stretch out their hands so long."

"Listen to the meaning of this beast, the wise legs are also abolished because of their hands."

"Hahaha!!"

"Ridiculous, I'm ridiculous!"

"As the king of a country, he can't even save his son's leg!"

In the end, Li Shimin laughed wildly.

Lu Heng looked at him with a somewhat hideous smile, and a layer of white sweat unconsciously broke out behind his back.

Groove ......

The fact that the five surnames and Qiwang did this thing completely angered Li Er!

He has long known that although Li Shimin is very strict with Li Chengqian, and can even be said to be a chicken baby education, when it comes to beloved sons, His Majesty Li Er is really the first.

Now, I learned that Li Chengqian's broken leg was not an accident, but man-made.

Li Shimin has completely rammed!!
