The whole hall is silent, except for the slight whispering of the white cloth in the breeze.

"Patriarch, please take Xiaobu." Li Shimin raised his head and said softly. His face was tight, and the circles under his eyes were red.

"Your Majesty, this... the spirit of my father's in the sky, how would you like to see your majesty like this? If the ministers agreed, I would not dare to see my father under Jiuquan!" Qin Tong burst into tears, clasped his fists and choked.

Li Shimin paused, got up, and tore a piece of white element in the hall with a "heap" and tied it to his left arm.

"Uncle Bao and I are as close to each other as brothers. Brothers are dead but brothers are filial, so it is suitable." Li Shimin took the incense and stepped forward, respectfully put it on the incense, and said softly, "More What's more, Shubao is a good scholar of the Tang Dynasty and a martyr of Sheji. His funeral should be a national funeral! I, I want to abolish the dynasty for ten days, make the whole country sacrifice for him, and the whole dynasty, civil and military, all come to condolences!"

"Your Majesty..." Qin Tong, a big man who was struggling with iron, was already crying and didn't know what to say.

Li Shimin walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Qin Tong, I know that Shubao has always been calm and simple and not extravagant. At this moment, I understand better why you have not publicly mourned for Shubao. You I’m afraid of embarrassing those in the court, right? Because they don’t know if they should come to condole or not, right?"

Qin Tong was silent, turned his face and wiped a tear secretly.

"The weather is changing...My responsibility!" Li Shimin sighed again, and said, "Many people now think more about interests and future, and forget loyalty and integrity. What a lifetime of Shubao Generosity, righteousness, integrity, and selflessness, at the end of his life, no one took the initiative to come to offer condolences-this is still Zhenguan Tang, or my world!!!"

The dragon roars.

The Qin family saw that the emperor was really angry today. His eyes were red and his face was tight, and his body was trembling slightly when he pulled up with his fists. When looking at Qin Shubao's spiritual position, there was a lot of grief and regret.

"Uncle...you have a heroic life that is very loyal and stabs at your friends. I have always respected you and convinced you. Now, anyone can misunderstand you, avoid you or even slander you. I am the only one who does not have this Qualified." Li Shimin stared at Qin Shubao's spiritual position, tremblingly stretched out his hand and gently stroked it, and whispered, "I know why you have to fight against the edict and fight for eighteen battles, and rush for thousands of miles to recover Gaochang; I know more about you. Why go into the tiger's den alone and sacrifice your life impassionedly...As a king, it is a great fortune to have a courtier like you; as a man, it is a great pain to have a good brother like you!"

The Qin family heard Li Shimin say such things, but they were also a little confused. Naturally, they didn't quite understand the many deep intentions of Qin Shubao's generosity.

At this moment, the concealed door of the Qin Mansion was suddenly knocked open. A hysterical cry came from the door, and two big men and a young man ran in.

Everyone looked out in astonishment. The two big men were really not eye-catching. One had a beard and hardened like charcoal, and the other was as strong as an iron tower.

Not Yu Chigong and Cheng Zhijie, or who?

As soon as these two entered the Qin Mansion compound, they couldn't stop crying, and the young man behind them was also silent and worried.

"Second Brother Qin! My Second Brother Qin!!!"

The two big men rushed through the door crying and screaming, not paying attention to Li Shimin's presence or paying attention to the Qin family. They both lay down in front of the Lingshu, kowtowing and crying.

The young man also followed in, knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed his head without saying a word.

The Qin family hurriedly helped the ceremony, but the two of them refused to get up and cried loudly as they beat their chests.

Li Shimin walked up, waved his hand to open Qin Tong and others, squatted down beside them, and said: "Respect Virtue, Zhijie, you two are not loyal to your duties in the remote prefectures and counties, you ran to Chang'an privately. , What should be the crime?"

It was only then that Yu Chigong and Cheng Zhijie returned to their senses. They looked up together and were surprised: "Your Majesty!"

"It's me." Li Shimin looked at them.

Yu Chi gong stared at Li Shimin, staring at Li Shimin for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, you are going to cure my sin and cut off my head, and wait until I finish offering to Brother Qin. Say it again!"

"Your Majesty, Shubao is back to heaven, how can you live alone by biting gold?" Cheng Zhijie burst into tears, watching Li Shimin clasp his fists in prayer, "Weichen and Shubao are not the same compatriots, but they are better than flesh and blood! As early as more than 30 years ago Years ago, Weichen and him made an oath to live and die together! Now Shubao is killed by the enemy, biting gold... biting gold!"

Cheng Zhijie is already crying.

Li Shimin patted his fisted hands, motioning him to stop talking.

"I, I'm just getting closer, one step ahead of you!"

Wei Chigong and Cheng Zhijie squatted their heads in tears.

"Uncle Bao is your good brother, and also my good brother." Li Shimin patted both of them on the shoulders, and asked who was the next generation behind them.

Wei Chigong replied that this is Li Zhen, the son of Li Ji. Li Ji heard that Shubao was waiting for his relatives to express his condolences, but because he was at the border and had heavy responsibilities, he could not come, so he sent him to come as his father.

"Li Ji...Although he is happy and angry, he is really a hero!"

After half an hour.

Li Shimin, Yu Chigong, and Cheng Zhijie walked out of the mourning hall, persuaded the Qin family who had sent them back, and walked to the gate together.

The three people saw the twelve halberds of Xunmen.

Long stare.

"Booming--"The clouds were rolling, and the thunderstorm was approaching.

"Respect Virtue, Zhijie——Follow me and go up!" Li Shimin strode forward, grabbed a thick Fangtian painting halberd with both hands, pulled it up with a roar, and walked away boldly.

Wei Chigong and Cheng Zhijie looked at Li Shimin, who walked away with a halberd and painted a halberd with a pole in his hand, and even forgot to ride a horse.

The emperor now carries a Fangtian painting halberd, swaggering across the city and entering the palace, Chang'an shakes!

On the Bell and Drum Tower of the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace, the two big drums that have always been played only in the early morning were rumbling hammers by two majestic tigers and lions, overwhelming the thunder that fell from the sky!

"Go up!"

The ruling and the opposition went up and down, shocked!

The ministers, big and small, braved the storm and thunder and lightning, rushed to the Wude Hall of Tai Chi Palace.

Entering the Hall of Wu De, the officials who were already panicked were even more shocked! ——Li Shimin, the current emperor who has not seen his face for a long time, sits on a dragon chair with a white suit and white filial piety; and in his hand, he is holding a handle of mysterious iron that has faded its original color over time, Fang Heaven painting halberd!

Although he was still drenched and a little embarrassed before Gunmian, Li Shimin at this moment is just like the young hero who flew on the battlefield 30 years ago, full of energy, and the dragon!

"Long live my emperor, long live long live..." The courtiers all knelt down and shouted in panic.

"Boom!"

Fang Tian drew a halberd on the ground, and the sound of this sharp shock shocked everyone in the house.

"Flat body."

At this moment, Li Zhi just rushed in from the side court, while hurriedly sorting out the crooked flat crown. When he saw Li Shimin sitting on the dragon chair, he was dumbfounded and was at a loss on the spot.

His Royal Highness Jin Luan stood with two ministers who were supposed to be on the side of the dragon chair's imperial case, Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang. The two lowered their eyebrows and dared not look at the face of the sky, their faces were very ugly.

"King Jin, you are the closest to Wude Hall, how come you are the latest?" Li Shimin asked Li Zhi, looking sideways.

"Erchen, Erchen..." When did Li Zhi meet his father in this image, he was a little out of breath from the current battle, and said in a panic, "Erchen felt some cold, so he took the medicine to sleep early. I'm down. I just heard the drums suddenly, this is..."

"Since I feel the wind and cold, I can go back to rest." Li Shimin turned his head and no longer looked at Li Zhi, but Lombok slightly squinted at Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang in the audience, slowly, but He said, "Here, nothing is wrong with you."

"Children follow the order!"

Li Zhi is amnesty and left in a hurry.

The night is like ink, the wind and the rain, the candles in the hall flicker, and the figures of the officials are like a group of demons dancing; the surroundings are silent, and the officials have to hold their breaths for fear of accidental coughing and hitting bad luck.

"Does anyone know this?" Li Shimin suddenly stood up and began to speak. He also took Fang Tian's painted halberd and walked off the dragon chair into the hall.

"This is... Fang Tian painted a halberd." Many people responded cautiously.

"What kind of Fangtian painted halberd?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.

No one has answered this time. Everyone bowed their heads, afraid to look directly at the emperor.

"Weichen knows." At this time, a thunderous voice sounded, Yu Chigong, he said loudly, "This is dedicated to Fangtian painting a halberd standing at Xunmen!"

"Not only do you know, they all know!" Li Shimin suddenly shouted, interrupting Yu Chigong!

The whole hall is shocking!

After a long pause, Li Shimin said again: "More people know that this kind of Fangtian painting halberd, I only let it stand in the only family. It's just that they don't want to say, or dare not say, or Disdain to say."

The whole house is dead and silent, most of them panic. The emperor today is obviously that the ones who come are not good, and those who are good will not come. Who would dare to offend Longyan at this time, that is probably not good fruit.

"Weichen wants to say it." At this moment, an old but fruitful voice sounded, neither light nor heavy.

Fang Xuanling walked out.

Li Shimin turned his head and glanced at him, then turned around, "Speak."

"Your Majesty, at this moment, state affairs should be the top priority, and loyalty should be the second." Fang Xuanling said calmly, "The existing Lanzhou Military Daily and Lanzhou Metropolitan Governor Qin Mubai's request for blood is here, waiting for your Majesty to personally Decide."

"Take me to see." Li Shimin threw Fang Tian's painted halberd to Wei Chigong, and took the memorial from Fang Xuanling, strode back to the dragon chair and sat down, staring.

Everyone held their breath and watched secretly the changes in Li Shimin's expression as he watched the memorial.

It's over. Li Shimin was calm and afraid of throwing them on the imperial case, patted his hands, and said, "Okay, I've finished reading. Now, let me express my opinion. Everyone must express their opinions. I don't want to listen to you all. Drinking babbles. Come, take care of me!"

Several eunuchs carefully filed in with paper, pen and other things, and gave each courtier a pair of four treasures of the study.

"Write it now." Li Shimin said, "Write down what you think of Lanzhou. It mainly focuses on three things, one is how to treat Qin Shubao's death; the other is how to deal with the attack between Tubo and the Western Regions; and the third is Qin. Mu Bai's blood book has only eight characters, "West Rong is not flat, you will never look down!"-What do you think and how you look at it, and what should the court do with it!"

Everyone was stunned, many people were holding pens, their hands trembling a little.

"Write!!!" Li Shimin roared in a fight against the case, like a dragon yin, "If you don't even think about things like this, don't have any opinions, what use is it for me to wait? If there is only one above the Tang court How close is the death of the mediocre people of the corpse position vegetarian meal?!"

"The minister waits for the decree...Your Majesty calms down!"

The lowest rank of all ministers is from the fourth rank, a total of 136, just like the students participating in the scientific examination, all of them are quietly studying at their desks.

About an hour later, all the "examination papers" were collected and piled on top of Li Shimin's imperial case.

Li Shimin didn't say a word, picked up one by one and read it carefully.

No one dared to move the ministers. The weather was boring and many people were sweating two battles.

For a long time, Li Shimin finally finished reading the more than one hundred examination papers, patted his hand on the stack of papers, and said, as if jokingly and mockingly, "That's right! They are all my ministers of the stock arm, Datang's. Sheji’s pillars! Everyone has insights, and there are a lot of deafening or confusing golden words."

Many people took a long breath and secretly wiped their sweat.

"But I'm strange." Li Shimin suddenly changed his conversation and said, "Why don't you usually come forward to make suggestions for Jiangshan Sheji and solve problems for me? ... I hear the most. Yes, that is, "Subscribed by the Minister" and "Subscribed by the Minister." It seems that apart from this sentence, many of you will not say anything else."

The atmosphere turned sharply, and suddenly became tense again. Pity the group of officials who came to the court in a hurry in the middle of the night, many of them are old and weak, but are forced to follow Li Shimin one after another to play this thrilling game of "roller coaster".

"I am also surprised. Since you are standing here, you are definitely not the generals. You must be able to excel." Li Shimin said, "Why don't you put on this scarlet robe, when you walk into this court, This one loses his own opinion, or is it simply a worm on the wall?...Who made you like this? Is it me?"

Many people are confused and dare not respond.

"Tell me. Is it because I have always been narrow-minded, refused to accept loyalty, and abused violent punishment to block your way of speaking, or I am old and stupid and self-serving, so that all the officials will lose the courage and patience to enter the loyalty?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Not..."

"Who is that?" Li Shimin suddenly shouted!

No one answered.

The grandson Wuji, standing under the hall, bowed his head and arched his hands without saying a word, his expression even more stern.

"Let me listen and remember." Li Shimin pointed to the officials in the court hall, and said every word, "I am not dead yet, my country will not be in chaos! Never forget, I You are the only king! No one can decide and change the destiny of Tang Dynasty except me!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The officials knelt down in panic, and the mountains whispered with a tsunami.

The grandson has no face as earth-colored, and on his icy forehead, big beads of sweat rolled down, dripping wet the Xichuan Hundred Flowers Jinying blanket in front of him.

"Everyone is flat." Li Shimin took another photo of the "examination paper" on the imperial case, and said, "I have learned from the strengths of all the officials, and have made a decision on the Lanzhou matter - Fang Xuanling listens!"

"Weichen is ordered to listen to the edict!" Fang Xuanling stood up and bowed his hands.

"I ordered you to be the deputy chief of the Kansai Road marching in Chang'an, and the governor of the Kansai army should be allocated with money, food, horses, armor and other munitions." Li Shimin said, "I want to know tonight, I How many millets are there in Taicang, how many horses are there in the Longyou Horse Guard, and how many elite soldiers and people’s mules and horses can be recruited in the Guan. Fang Xuanling, you are the steward of my Datang. The battle in Guanxi is a matter of great importance. Tang Guoyun should not be underestimated. You have to raise your spirits and deal with it carefully."

"The minister---have bowed down and died!" Fang Xuanling promised loudly.

Everyone was shocked in their hearts...The emperor's hand was simply the first to win, and the thunder could not cover the ears. He didn't discuss the issue of ‘Lanzhou is a war or peace’ with everyone at all, but-he just transferred troops to condemn the generals!

The universe is arbitrary!

Is the horse emperor who Wu Fu Sihai and Kaibang Liding come back again?

"Wei Chi respectfully listen!" Li Shimin shouted again.

"Weichen is here!" Yuchi Gonghu stood up vigorously.

"I have given you the commander of the Jiannan Road march, leading a 50,000 elite army to the south of Sichuan and Sichuan, commanding all the states and counties of Sichuan and Sichuan, and guarding Xichuan to check and balance Tubo." Li Shimin said, "If Tubo comes to attack and kill , You counterattack at the right time; if you don’t come, you will take the initiative to attack from the west, so that it will be the enemy again! Fang Xuanling will also allocate food and grass and other things with you."

"Jiannan Road..." Yu Chigong was stunned and muttered, "Your Majesty, the minister is going to Lanzhou, and I will avenge Qin's second brother!"

"Come here, show this memorial to Jingde to have a look." Li Shimin said.

The attendant picked up the memorial sent from Lanzhou and gave it to Yu Chigong. He stared at the tiger's eyes several times, and suddenly laughed: "So that's it! Brother Qin gave birth to a smart and good son!-It is right and righteous for father to hate him! We are willing to serve as Qin Saburo's flanking assistant , Defend against the enemy in the wild, and attack Tubo!"

"Yeah!" Li Shimin finally showed his first smile today, nodded, and he said, "Cheng Zhijie listens!"

"Weichen is here!" Cheng Zhijie stood up holding his fists and promised, looking at the aloof Li Shimin expectantly.

"I will give you the position of deputy chief of the Liaodong Road Marching, leading the elite Guanzhong cavalry with fifty thousand horses, taking the northwest to Youzhou, and ordering you to work under the command of Youzhou Metropolitan Governor and Liaodong Road Chief General Wu Wang Li Ke." Li Shimin said, " I order you to assist Li Ke and fight against Goryeo."

"Ah, go to Liaodong? Youzhou?" Cheng Zhijie was even more stunned.

Li Shimin waved his hand, "Let Cheng Zhijie, also look at this memorial."

Manchao people were all horrified, watching eagerly as Cheng Zhijie opened the thick stack of border memorials from Lanzhou.

After reading, Cheng Zhijie laughed with his palms and said, "That's how it is! The weak ministers are not as insensitive as your majesty and Qin Saburo!——Chen, I would like to go to Liaodong to assist King Wu! Goguryeo dare to be half-hearted. If you don’t act like a minister, the minister swishes his teacher and strikes it, vowing to punish his country and destroy his country, in order to behave like you!"

Li Shimin nodded and stood up, cut his hands and walked into the hall, again picked up the Fangtian painting halberd, and said leisurely: "Once upon a time, the barbarians of the Quartet respected me as the'Khan of Heaven'. Now, they They all think that the Tian Khan is old and useless, and Datang Chengcheng has been going down for a long time. So, groups of clowns have appeared on the stage and provoke me. I will let them know that the three of Tian Khan. What is the true meaning of these words; the so-called Yangyang Dynasty is not just a rich, rich, and world-renowned man!"

"Come here, take the pen and ink!" Li Shimin shouted, and in a flash, he wrote a letter.

"This is a letter I wrote to Xue Yantuo's great leader, Zhenzhu Khan Yinan." Li Shimin looked around the hall and said awe-inspiringly, "I told him clearly that I have already started a full-scale war with Tubo, the Western Regions, and the Western Turks. We must also use troops against Liaodong. At that time, the northern frontiers must be empty and weak. If he has the intention of sweeping the grasslands and self-reliant Khanate, this is a god-given opportunity!"

Everyone was speechless!

"Chu Suiliang, you immediately write an edict and pass it to Li Ji!" Li Shimin put down the letter to Yi Nan and said, "I, give him half of the northern grassland Turkic homeland and Hebei province! No matter what! In the future, what else the Yi man will do, or the chaos of the grassland, I don’t care about it. Li Ji will handle it all!"

"Weichen Zunzhi..." Chu Suiliang took a cold breath and carefully promised.

Li Shimin finally sat down slowly and let out a long sigh.

Just like a person who has gone through a long-distance marathon race, he is showing a lot of fatigue, but his eyes are still cold as ice and sharp as a knife.

"I have another decree. Tonight, after the court’s dissolution, abolish the dynasty for ten days. The whole country, mourn Qin Shubao...All officials of Grade 5 or above in Guanzhong, two capitals and Jifu must go to Yi Guo Gong The government offers condolences! It is tentatively scheduled to bury Shubao’s cloak tomb in Zhaoling. The corpse will be retrieved in the next day, and then moved into the Zi Palace as a state funeral."

"The ministers and others follow the order..."

"Huh..." Everyone heard Li Shimin's voice clearly, with a tired, helpless and sad sigh.

"Chu Suiliang, I am tired. You hold the pen on my behalf and write a letter to Qin Mubai of Lanzhou." Li Shimin closed his eyes slightly and leaned back on the dragon chair, and said, "Tell him, use your soldiers well. , Don’t have any worries. If he is not the opponent of the Garqin Mausoleum, Zhen, I will personally mention the master of the whole country, and go with him, and fight with the abandoned sect!"
