In the dark room illuminated by butter candles like daylight, Zhang Zheng's face was as cold as ten thousand years of ice, Qiu Shisan knelt in front of Zhang Zheng, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Only Zhang Zheng knows how difficult it is to succeed in the rebellion under Li Zheng. The difficulty of clearing the customs is roughly equivalent to running to the Three Kingdoms to play unification.

In history, except for Li Er's son, other people who had this idea and took practical action, from Hou Junji to Zhang Liang, were all planted in the soil by Li Er.

So Zhang Zheng never thought of making Li Er's rebellion, because that was the way to die. But Zhang Zheng didn't expect that Qiu Shisan, who had always been loyal, would have such a rebellious thought in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that his father Qiu Ping had made great contributions to the Guogong Mansion, Qiu Shisan himself would be serious about doing things on weekdays.

Zhang Zheng almost had the idea of cleaning up the portal at that moment. Seeing that Qiu Shisan had already made a mistake, thinking about the past feelings, Zhang Zheng still didn't make a heavy hand after all.

The purpose of the beating has been achieved, Zhang Zheng said coldly to Qiu Shisan: "Remember, the most important thing to be a man is the word duty, otherwise, you can only be a ghost, get up." ”

"Thank you Shaolangjun for sparing your life, your subordinates don't dare, and your subordinates will definitely keep their mouths shut in the future." Qiu Shisan hurriedly kowtowed a few times, kowtowing while reassuring.

Then he got up tremblingly, bent over and stood aside, not daring to look at Zhang Zheng.

"Cut off Zheng Tong's head, put it in front of the teacher's grave to pay respects, and return the body to the Zheng family as a warning." Zhang Zheng gave a faint order, and then got up and left the dark room.

The person who forced Lao Li Gang to death was Zheng Tong, but this was a decision made by all the family valves. Zheng Tong's head is just the beginning.

No one can escape Zhang Zheng's sanctions, even if they are extremely poor all their lives. Never die until one side falls completely.

I don't know when it rained heavily. The sound of raindrops falling on the ground reminded Zhang Zheng of the rainstorm he encountered when he went south to Lingnan last year.

The two rains are different, the heavy rain in the north hits the ground in a clear rhythm, and the rain will not leak like a sky leak in a short period of time.

It's layered, and it's a whole night. Once the rainstorm in Lingnan comes, it is like a waterfall thundering, but it always rushes by, as if it is just a trip to wash the world.

The two rains last year and this year are just like last year's Zhang Zheng and this year's Zhang Zheng. put away a lot of inexplicable tempers, and a lot of inexplicable insistence.

Through the waterline dripping from the eaves, Zhang Zheng looked at Chang'an. Li Shimin should like this thing he sent him very much.

Zhang Zheng looked at Chang'an, and at the same time, Li Shimin, who was wearing a sleeping coat, also looked at the academy.

One is a young courtier who has risen like a comet in this empire, and the other is a peerless emperor who single-handedly created this powerful empire.

The two seemed to have a heart, looked at each other forty miles apart, and then withdrew their gaze at the same time. Li Shimin retracted his gaze and played with the order sent by Zhang Zheng in the dim light.

The talisman was wrapped around Li Shimin's fingertips, like a child who had gotten a new toy and couldn't put it down.

Li Shimin suddenly smiled faintly, no one knew what he was laughing at. This is Li Shimin's rare smile from the heart for a long time.

It's a pity that no one saw Li Shimin's heartfelt smile.

"Interesting, I can finally use you with confidence, your inexplicable skills, as long as they can be used by me, I will not pursue them, poor my curiosity ......" Li Shimin muttered to himself.

It's just that no one understands what Li Shimin's self-talk means. Except for a strange old eunuch who didn't know when he appeared behind Li Shimin, bowing down and standing with a wrinkled face.

Li Shimin was not the slightest surprised by the sudden appearance of the old eunuch, as long as Li Shimin needed it, he would appear.

As long as Li Shimin doesn't need it, he will disappear. No one knows how he did it, but his appearance means that Li Shimin needs him again.

"Shadow, you said Zhang boy, is it a human being, a god, a fairy or a ghost?" Li Shimin seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was asking the eunuch who suddenly appeared next to him.

The eunuch opened his mouth, revealing a black hole in his mouth, and the tongue in his mouth had been cut off entirely.

Therefore, the old eunuch naturally couldn't answer Li Shimin's question, and could only grin in response to Li Shimin's hideous and terrifying smile.

"That's it, the people who stayed with Zhang Xiaozi, recall some of them. Since he is willing to give this thing to me, it doesn't matter if he is a human being, a god, a fairy, or a ghost. Li Shimin ordered the old eunuch called Ying, and the old eunuch disappeared in response.

Li Shimin pointed the talisman at the candlelight, and a shadow of the talisman magnified countless times was illuminated by the candlelight on the wall.

The appearance of the shadow is a dense and chaotic line. If Zhang Zheng can see it, he will definitely distinguish some of the topography of the Tang Dynasty from these shadows.

Li Shimin touched the position of three inches under his left armpit, and there was a scar that seemed to be absent, and it still hurt faintly.

…… Zhang Zheng stood quietly behind the windowsill and watched the rain all night. When the sky was slightly bright, he held up the oil-paper umbrella and slowly walked back to the filial piety hall.

The sound of the door opening woke up the sleeping Li Tai. Seeing that the person who came was Zhang Zheng, the look of vigilance in Li Tai's eyes disappeared.

Zhang Zheng did not explain where he went last night, and Li Tai did not ask. There are two real and unknown masters and apprentices, one of whom is ready to start the day's teaching content and new knowledge.

The other took off his muddy boots, climbed onto the bed of Xiaotang, and covered it with a thin quilt. Zhang Zheng closed his eyes, and after a while, a well-proportioned snoring sound came from his mouth and nose.

Li Tai lightly carried the pot and basin and walked outside the filial piety hall. In the more than a year since he came to the academy, under Zhang Zheng's teaching, he has learned how to take care of his life.

…… Another few months have passed, and in Chang'an, the title of the big gentleman has gradually become a legend.

More young newcomers have risen up and divided into different camps and small groups. The younger gentlemen are famous in Chang'an.

It's just that there is no longer a powerful big gentleman who can integrate all the gentlemen into one camp.

On the twelfth day of July in the sixth year of Zhenguan, the autumn wind is now again. The crown princess Wang gave birth to her eldest son for the crown prince Li Chengqian, weighing seven catties and eight taels.

Li Shimin gave the name Li Ju, who was the eldest grandson of the emperor. And this year, Li Chengqian is 15 years old. Because of the joy of the birth of the emperor and grandson, the edict of the Son of Heaven ordered that all prisoners in the world should be punished first-class.

Those who have five or more grades of internal and external official ministry are the fathers and descendants, and each of them will be added to the rank of officer, and the world will be drunk for five days. and feasted more than five grades of ministers in the East Palace.
