"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Changsun Wuji set his eyes on Li Shimin.

in fact.

He didn't care much about the outcome of this matter.

After all.

The struggle between the emperor and the aristocratic family did not affect his interests, so Changsun Wuji faced it with a spectatorial attitude.

of course.

He still despises these guys' behavior style in his heart.

Using the life and death of ordinary people as a means is indeed a bit despicable and shameless.

"Now is also the time..." A smile appeared on the corner of Li Shimin's mouth.

He stood up slowly, and directly picked up the Son of Heaven sword that was placed not far away.

"Some people say... I am not worthy of this Tianzi sword at all, so let these guys see if I am qualified!"

When he said these words, Li Shiming's eyes flickered coldly. He has always been at a disadvantage in the conflicts between him and the aristocratic family.

According to his truest thoughts, from the very beginning, he should have killed these people and expressed his position with practical actions.

Unfortunately.

For such a long time, there has never been a suitable opportunity. With the current power and prestige of the aristocratic family, if they make a mistake, they will face their desperate counterattack.

It is precisely because of this that it is Li Shimin's extravagant hope to really do something about the family.

But now it's different!

With these conditions under control now, it is natural for them to see their anger...

……

noon.

Li Shimin personally led the Xuanjia Army out of the city, the dense sound of horseshoes beating like drums, and even the ground trembled slightly.

Before the victims who were resting against the city wall had time to react, they discovered that Li Shimin led people into the porridge shed.

Seeing the emperor coming in person, there was almost no hesitation, and all the victims of the disaster gathered here, and the porridge shed was completely surrounded by water.

In the recent period, rumors about the lack of food in the imperial court will soon cut off their relief have caused a lot of noise, and almost everyone is discussing the same topic.

Now seeing the emperor again, combined with his previous actions, most people naturally think that this is to give everyone an explanation.

"I have already said that His Majesty will never give up on us easily. It doesn't mean that the imperial court will soon run out of food, and His Majesty will not care about us. Isn't someone here now?"

"Seeing His Majesty coming in person, my heart is really at ease. I think we will get the answer soon!"

"Two days ago, I discovered that the porridge distributed to us was not quite right. Even if the court's food was not sufficient, it would not have changed so quickly. Your Majesty's appearance just illustrates this point!"

The gathered victims looked at Li Shimin who walked into the porridge shed and discussed in a low voice.

Although there are many rumors about the imperial court's lack of food, some people still have doubts. Even if there is not enough food, the things in their hands will not be so short all of a sudden!

There must be something tricky in this!

Of course, Li Shimin didn't know what he was thinking inside. At this moment, his gaze had already landed on the pot full of porridge.

I see.

The porridge in the cauldron was so thin that the bottom could be seen, and even chopsticks could easily float on it. There was not much grain in it.

Long before coming here, Li Shimin had already inquired that the officials in charge of serving the porridge happened to be sent by the aristocratic family.

It was precisely because of this that he didn't find it surprising that there was a problem.

"Can this also be called porridge?" Li Shimin flipped the chopsticks in the pot casually, and looked at the guy named Zhou Ping standing in front of him with deep meaning.

Seemingly sensing that the emperor's visit was not kind, Zhou Ping swallowed hard, he didn't know how to respond even though he was always quick to react.

"According to the law of this dynasty, what should be the standard for serving porridge?" Li Shimin's voice gradually became low.

Simultaneously.

He slowly pulled out the Son of Heaven Sword that he carried with him, and the sharp cold light flickered.

"Thick...thick enough to put chopsticks in!" Zhou Ping was sweating coldly on his forehead. Looking at the Tianzi Sword in Li Shimin's hand, his legs softened and he knelt directly on the ground.

"But, the food delivered every day is simply not enough..."

After working hard for a long time, he finally thought of a plausible reason for himself.

Just now.

Zhou Ping felt a strong murderous intent from the emperor. He had a premonition that if he couldn't give a satisfactory explanation, he might not be able to escape today.

"The food delivered every day is not enough, who told you this?" Li Shimin knew very well in his heart that the so-called insufficient food of this guy was rooted in his will.

but.

He deliberately limited the amount of food, but he didn't need to think about it, he must have a legitimate reason.

"Even if the food delivered every day is not enough, you can ask the court to distribute it again. This is not the reason why you make the porridge like this without permission!"

"What's more...whether this food is really not enough, I think you know best in your heart!" The smile on the corner of Li Shimin's mouth became more and more intense.

"Come on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a master bookkeeper immediately walked out behind him and opened the file in his hand.

"Check, Yao Changfeng, he has shares in several grain stores in the city. The military department has intercepted a number of grain trucks last night, and the grain inside is exactly the grain for this disaster relief!"

The master book's words were like sharp knives, and every word pierced into Zhou Ping's heart fiercely.

Well known.

This Yao Changfeng had an extraordinary relationship with him. The emperor found out about this person suddenly, and he couldn't get rid of his relationship at all.

"You...do you have anything else to say?" Li Shimin was wearing black armor, and the cold glow emanating from it reflected the Iron Heaven Sword in his hand, exuding an extremely strong chill.

Zhou Ping really couldn't bear such a strong pressure, and in less than two breaths, he completely let go of all resistance.

"Your Majesty, I... I am guilty!" He said in a trembling voice, almost pressing his face to the ground.

"It's all the ministers who are greedy together, so... that's why..."

He knew very well in his heart that at this time, there was no point in playing tricks.

It's better to plead guilty straightforwardly. With the relationship between him and the Li family, things like this can be easily resolved. It's nothing more than making a fool of yourself in public.

but.

Zhou Ping obviously underestimated Li Shimin's determination now!
"Drag it out!" Li Shimin snorted coldly and waved his hand before he finished speaking.

immediately.

Two soldiers of the Xuanjia Army stepped forward quickly, dragged Zhou Ping one left and one right, and pressed all the people in front of you very roughly...
