The night was dark.

The candlelight flickered on and off, reflecting the faces of the young couple.

Both of them looked pensive.

"The last three words are quite easy to understand."

The eldest grandson Wujian pondered for a long time, raised his head slightly and said,

"Winning the peace of the people roughly means that most people will be safe and sound, and it has also been verified from the side that the father will not pursue it deeply."

"As for drowning one person, does that mean sacrificing one person to save everyone?"

Li Shimin nodded.

"I've thought of this layer too."

He frowned,

"But who is this 'drowned' person?"

"Why flooding? In the laws of the Tang Dynasty, there seems to be no punishment for drowning. ”

"That's the word, it's hard to understand......"

The two fell into a brief silence again.

"Wait."

The eldest grandson Wujian seemed to think of something, and even asked,

"Among the people killed by my father this time, what is the name of the person sent by the Tiance Mansion? Could it have something to do with him? ”

"Du Fengju, Du Ruhui's distant cousin ......," Li Shimin replied.

And at this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind!

"That's right, that's right! You reminded me! ”

Li Shimin said excitedly,

"Du Yan!"

"Du Fengju is Du Yan's outer chamber, that is, the illegitimate son outside! I remember...... Originally, Du Yan seemed to have promised him that as long as this matter was done well, he would let him return to the Du family's clan with dignity......"

"No one expected that his father would kill him quietly."

"Du Yan, Du Yan...... Do you say ......"

His pupils shrank, and his heart trembled!

"It seems that the word 'drowning one person' is a pun!"

The eldest grandson clapped his hands and said with an affirmative face,

"It not only represents Du Yan, but also represents that he is going to die! With his death, this farce will be ended. ”

"Now that I know the result, I will push it back, and it will not be difficult to guess what my father thinks."

"He won't pursue this matter again, but Erfeng, your side must be punished slightly, and the price is Du Yan's life, after all, he is Du Fengju's father."

"This is the true meaning of 'drown one person and get the peace of all'!"

A few words, it is already eight or nine that are not far from ten.

I have to say that the name of the eldest grandson Wujian in the later generations of "Eternal Virtuous Queen" is not in vain, this brain case is indeed better than Li Er!

"I see, I see!"

Li Shimin muttered,

"Now it's really clear from the clouds, and the mouth is suddenly ......"

He suddenly turned his head and said:

"Then shouldn't I go and inform Du Yan now and let him ......?"

The eldest grandson shook his head resolutely.

"The best thing you should do now is to hide in your nest like a quail, do nothing, and appear to know nothing."

She vetoed,

"Du Yan there, you must not have the slightest connection! It is necessary to put on a strange posture, so that the line of 'Du Fengju - Du Yan' will not involve Tiance Mansion! ”

"Besides, at this time, I'm afraid he has been controlled by his father, right?"

Li Shimin was stunned, and finally nodded bitterly.

He lost his mind for a while, wanted to be emotional, and almost made a big political mistake!

"I know you're going to have a hard time losing your troops, but this is the best thing you can get after the matter is revealed."

Seeing that her husband was worried, the eldest grandson's tone softened again, and he said softly,

"It's a big deal to treat the Du family more in the future, especially Keming, you pay more attention."

Li Shimin nodded heavily.

"I know."

He said solemnly,

"If Du Yan is really killed because of this, it is also for me to block the knife, and I will not treat Keming and them badly."

The two were talking, but they heard an announcement from outside:

"Your Highness, there is a father-in-law in the palace who has come to pass the word."

Li Shimin's heart suddenly burst, gave the eldest grandson Wujian a look, and walked out to receive the order.

A moment later.

"It's my father's edict."

Li Shimin walked back into the bedroom with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice,

"Tomorrow there will be a big court meeting, saying that something is going to be announced."

"It's coming so fast......"

"Fortunately, the mystery of the six-character proverb has been solved, and I don't have to worry about it anymore."

He poured himself a cup of cold tea and drank it dry.

Then he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Although the army is lost, as long as he is still there and the basic plate is still there, he will not despair.

"I'm really curious right now."

The eldest grandson held his chin and said with an exclamation on his face,

"Who is this Mr. Poor Rescuer?"

"He only lives in the mountains, and he has never participated in the affairs of the court, how can he calculate it so accurately? Can even Du drown? ”

"The front foot has just guessed your name and identity, and the back foot will know your next fate, and even know what is going to happen! Could it really be that the immortals who knew 500 years before and 500 years later couldn't be?! ”

She is full of curiosity about this master she has never met before!

"Yes! Who is he sacred! ”

Li Shimin muttered,

"Real people...... Immortals? ”

"If I can recruit such great power under my command and do things for me, won't I be able to anticipate the enemy and have the advantage?"

Suddenly, his momentum changed suddenly!

The eyes are shining!

"Such a master will definitely be able to guide my future direction!"

Li Shimin pinched the tea bowl and made up his mind,

"If I really answer his words tomorrow, I will definitely go to Moyu Mountain again immediately and invite him here! If you don't come, you have to tie him up! ”

He made up his mind, he must get Xu Fenglei!

Even if he can't help him get the chair he longed for in his dreams, at least he can detect the crisis in advance and escape to protect himself!

"Since he pointed you out this time, it means that he has no ill feelings towards you, as long as you treat it with sincerity, you will definitely be able to impress this master out of the mountain."

The eldest grandson Wujian cheered on the side,

"The concubine believes in you!"

The couple looked at each other and smiled.

Li Shimin's physical and mental exhaustion finally dissipated at this moment, and the whole person relaxed.

I saw him walk to the table.

Call!

The candle is blown out, and the little don't win the newlywed.

……

The night is deeper.

Under the cover of night, Chang'an City became quieter and quieter, as if there was a giant beast in the night that was constantly devouring sounds.

The Praetorian guards in the Imperial City leaned against the walls and took a nap.

Everything seems so quiet.

But there is only one place, which is still brightly lit, and the warblers are singing and dancing.

Imperial City, East Palace.

Hall of Virtue.

The musicians focused on playing the music, and the dancers changed shifts one shift after another, dancing tirelessly.

Sandalwood curls and floats up around the beams.

All this is only for one person - the prince, Li Jiancheng!

Goo-dong, goo-dong!

Two mouthfuls of stuffy wine were poured into his abdomen, and Li Jiancheng's handsome face, which was three points similar to Li Shimin, became even more red.

The pile of overturned bottles next to him showed that he was completely drunk.

The palace people didn't dare to say anything, and they didn't know why, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came back from Yuhua Mountain, the whole person became depressed, and they didn't ask anything else all day long, just drunk and dreamed of death.

As slaves and maids, they are not qualified to say much, so they can only arrange entertainment for the prince.

As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not give orders, they will continue to play music and dance until dawn.

Goo-dong, goo-dong.

Another bottle of wine went down, and Li Jiancheng's eyes became more and more foggy.

And at this moment, a voice suddenly appeared:

"Your Highness, Xima Lang Wei asks for a meeting."
