At the beginning, he will be divided by five horses of Tang Taizong

Chang Sun Chong quickly said: "Didn't you say that my heirs can be saved from death? These two are my women, and they are pregnant with my child."

Ok?

"What I said is true. Chang Le and I haven't had sex for so many years, so I kept two outer rooms. Later, Chang Le didn't come home, so I simply kept them at home." As if afraid that Li Ji wouldn't believe it, Chang Sun Chong said again.

Li Ji and the people present stared at the two trembling women in a daze, with a look of scrutiny in their eyes. At this moment, the two of them were so frightened by the scene before them that they couldn't even speak, and they opened their mouths. There is no sound.

Li Ji scanned around, found a sergeant under his command who knew a little bit of medical skills, and asked him to come forward to check.

However, as soon as the doctor approached the two of them, he saw the woman staring at the blood on his knife in horror, and stepped back. Seeing this, the doctor quickly put away the knife.

The doctor checked briefly and nodded at Li Ji.

Li Ji was stunned for a moment, looked at the two of them, and said in a cold voice: "In this case, the death penalty for the two of them will be spared, although the eldest Sun Chong will be exiled to Lingnan!"

Changsun rushed to his tense body, suddenly relaxed, and then sat down on the ground.

this day

In the mansion of Guan Long's lineage, blood flowed freely, and the sound of crying and howling resounded through Chang'an.

The entire city of Chang'an was shocked, and the whole city was terrified.

The various ethnic groups in Guanlong, this military clan in the Guanzhong and Longyou regions that have gone through four dynasties from the end of the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, they are not wastes who "sneak high positions in the world" and "why not eat minced meat". At the time of the revolution, it is a force that can participate in, control, and even dominate the entire political and military structure.

It can be said that the change of the four dynasties and the imperial power are just their internal struggles.

But today, these aristocrats who have been in control for hundreds of years, especially after Li Zhi ascended the throne, the powerful Guanlong clans such as Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang were almost killed, and the smell of blood flowed along the wind. It can be smelled from miles away.

The entire city of Chang'an was horrified.

It wasn't until the afternoon that things slowly fermented, and the common people gradually realized that Qin Shou had returned to Chang'an, and the first thing he did when he returned to Chang'an was Qing Jun's side.

Afterwards, an incident was widely spread that Emperor Taizong fell into a coma, and it turned out that Changsun Wuji and others were poisoned by the Guanlong lineage behind him, which caused a huge disturbance among the common people.

Above the court, Qin Shou waited until Li Ji came back, several officials with five surnames Qiwang lowered their heads and reported the details of the ransacking of the family.

"Can you let us go now?"

Qin Shou frowned and glanced at the other party, which made the guy tremble.

It's over, it's over, what is this guy going to do?

Qin Shou at this moment is a lunatic in their eyes, a lunatic who dares to do anything and kills without blinking an eye

After waiting for a long time, he found that Qin Shou had no intention of doing anything.

Killing the Guanlong lineage was because almost all the core figures of the various ethnic groups in Guanlong were in the military and political system, and almost all of them were in or around Chang'an City. Now that he controls the army in Chang'an, the biggest reliance of the Guanlong Group is on himself. Ineffective, take advantage of the opportunity to defeat the opponent's forces in one fell swoop, even if they can't be defeated, as long as they control Chang'an's army, it will be difficult for them to organize such a large base.

But the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs are different. Although they have many people in Chang'an, most of their forces are outside Chang'an. In the local area, once more people are killed in Chang'an, there may be rebellions in the local area.

just then

Wu Jitong walked in, all kinds of emotions of grief, anger, and worry condensed on that old face.

"My son-in-law, my son-in-law, help me see if your majesty's illness is still cured."

Originally, when he found Li Shimin, he wanted to come in and ask Qin Shou, but the struggle in the court was not over yet, and it was not a day since His Majesty had been lying down, so he waited until the family raider came back before he left in a hurry came in.

Qin Shou nodded, and before leaving, he said to the civil and military officials in the court: "You can go back!"

All the ministers are like amnesty

When these ministers returned home, their entire backs were drenched in cold sweat.

"My lord, is it true that Qin Shou is back, as rumored on the street? People from all ethnic groups in Guanlong have their homes ransacked and exterminated?"

"Who else could it be if it wasn't this killer?"

Hall of Two Instruments

The comatose Li Shimin was originally in the Ganlu Hall, but after Li Zhi ascended the throne, he was placed here.

Qin Shou checked it and shook his head.

There is nothing I can do about it, my health is already bad, and I was poisoned, the damage caused is irreversible.

The night is like water, the lights are on

Manna Hall

Li Zhi woke up faintly, and slowly remembered what happened above the court, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Frightened in his heart, he swallowed dryly and asked the eunuch eagerly, "Where is Qin Shou? What happened afterwards?"

"Qin Shou was in Liangyi Hall, what happened later"

The eunuch told Li Zhi what he knew. After listening to it, Li Zhi sat there without words for a long time, with mixed emotions in his heart, feeling an indescribable sense of embarrassment.

Uncle, Chu Suiliang's Guanlong lineage, was ransacked and exterminated?

"Your Majesty, Duke Lu and Li Ji have been waiting outside, saying that His Majesty wants to see you as soon as he wakes up." The eunuch lowered his head and said.

Li Zhi narrowed his eyes and asked back: "Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji? What are they doing here?"

"Let them in!"

The eunuch took a few steps back after hearing the words, turned around and left.

quickly

The eunuch came in and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Duke Lu and the others are here!"

"His Majesty!"

Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji bowed in salute.

"Lu Guogong, what do you want to do here at this time? Tell Qin Shou to send a message to force me to abdicate?" Li Zhi asked Cheng Yaojin with his eyes straight.

Things have come to this point, since Qin Shou dared to kill his uncle, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of himself as an emperor. In his mind, he hadn't done anything to himself until now, and considering that the relationship between Qin Shou and Wu Wang Li Ke has always been relatively good, the biggest The most likely is to force him to abdicate.

Cheng Yaojin shook his head, "Your Majesty, I talked to Qin Shou before coming here, and he has no intention of forcing you to abdicate."

Ok?

Li Zhi's eyes widened, he looked at Cheng Yaojin, and then at Li Ji.

Looking at the stern eyes of the two of them, he couldn't help feeling a little absent-minded.

"Then what is the purpose of Duke Lu coming here?"

Cheng Yaojin said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I talked with Qin Shou and found that he has no intention of interfering with the court. It is best to do so. At present, all clans in Guanlong have been ransacked and wiped out. The most urgent thing is to stabilize the morale of the army and the court."

Li Zhi's eyes flickered, and he finally nodded, "I don't know what countermeasures Lu Guogong has?"

Cheng Yaojin pondered for a moment, but actually he had already made an outline in his mind, and said: "Now the news that Emperor Taizong was poisoned by the Guanlong lineage has spread, and it cannot be covered up, and all the clans in Guanlong have been executed. Your Majesty needs to affix the jade seal."

Before Li Zhi was in a coma, Qin Shou coerced all the civil and military officials to order directly, which was actually against the regulations, and now this process still has to be completed.

Li Zhi's eyes were gloomy, and he sighed, since everything is a foregone conclusion, that's the only way to go.

This also means that Changsun Wuji could not enter the Taimiao to build a coffin to make a conclusion, and it was the seal that was pressed by Li Zhi himself.

This made Li Zhi's heart ache. He was able to sit on the throne because of his uncle. In any case, this kind of thing shouldn't be done by him, but under the current situation, he has no choice.

Cheng Yaojin continued: "Although it is said that Qin Shou has no intention of going to court, we still want to restore his reputation, Princess Gaoyang, and Princess Changle, reward him and tell the world!"

"" Li Zhi gritted his teeth and creaked when he heard the words.

He looked at Li Ji inquiringly.

Li Ji: "Your Majesty, since Changsun Wuji and others are convicted, Qin Shou will naturally reward him, and some price must be paid, otherwise"

He didn't go any further, but his meaning was very clear, the killer still had the army in his hands, and if he got too ruthless, there would be no way to end it.

Li Zhi also fell silent, lost in thought.

I just feel dizzy and have a splitting headache!

Yoshihisa

Li Zhi nodded slowly, "Then follow what you said!"

ps: Thank you book friends for your support!

Chapter 363 Follow-up

Li Zhi looked at the backs of Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji leaving, and closed his eyes forcefully.

Through this conversation, he understood that Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji were not on Qin Shou's side, but on the contrary, they were the people he would rely on next, because he could talk to Qin Shou through these two people as a bridge between them. In a short time, he can still sit on the dragon chair.

There was a long silence until a voice woke him up.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is already cold, please warm it up for you!"

Only then did Li Zhi open his eyes, and found that the decoction in his hand had been cold for some time.

He murmured, "Qin Shou, is he still in Liangyi Hall?"

"Should still be there. Does Your Majesty want to see him?" the eunuch lowered his head and said.

Li Zhi shook his head, or not to see each other for the time being, really did not know what to say.

"Go and invite Duke Lu to come again!"

After Cheng Yaojin returned to his home

"Dad, drink tea!"

Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang, who usually stay away from each other, today offered tea to Cheng Yaojin by coincidence.

When they were on the street, they had already heard about what happened in the court, they knew the news about Qin Shou's return to the capital, the homes of various clans in Guanlong were ransacked, and their clans were exterminated, but the specific inside story was not clear.

So when they saw their father coming back, the two competed to be courteous.

"Father, did Qin Shou really kill Changsun Wuji?" Cheng Chuliang asked first.

Cheng Chumo: "All the clans in Guanlong were also liquidated because of Qin Shou?"

"Father, what's going on?"

""

"You two idiots, did you know to inquire after something happened? How do I teach you usually?" Cheng Yaojin glared at the two of them, hating them for not being up to date.

The two of them lowered their heads and said nothing, but they said in their hearts: "Usually you haven't taught us much!"

Cheng Yaojin drank a bowl of tea, opened his mouth slowly, and told the whole story.

At this point, the eldest grandson Wuji is dead, and there is nothing to hide. Besides, if you say it, you can mention these two things, so that they can use their brains when they do things in the future, and don't rush to stand in line for anything.

"It's really unbelievable that Qin Shou is so powerful?" Cheng Chumo murmured in bewilderment.

"Yes, Dad, you should call me on this matter." Cheng Chuliang said with a face full of regret.

"That's right, how can the two of us be missing in this matter, I think how hearty it was when we followed Qin Shoubei to take a taxi to Nose Khan."

The muscles on Cheng Yaojin's face twitched a few times, his hands clenched the teacup tightly, and he kicked the person over with his feet "bang bang".

"Bear stuff, is this something you two can participate in?"

This brain is like a pig, why didn't you inherit the brains of your father and me?

Cheng Yaojingang wanted to educate his two sons, but he stopped when he heard footsteps outside.

"Lu Guogong, Your Majesty invites you to go over!"

Um?I just came back, my buttocks are still hot, and I summoned myself again without using my hands, it must be Qin Shou's business.

Manna Hall

Qin Shou tried many methods with a tired face, and invited Sun Simiao, but it still didn't work.

"His Majesty"

Wu Jitong called out in a low voice, his vision blurred, Li Shimin saved his life at the beginning, otherwise he would never have survived today, unexpectedly meeting in this way now.

Qin Shou patted Wu Jitong on the shoulder, and said softly, "Just try your best. Some things cannot be changed by manpower. No matter how sad you are, it doesn't make sense."

Wu Jitong clenched his fingers and didn't move.

Qin Shou came out of the palace, with the military power in his hands, and he felt much more relaxed physically and mentally. He took Xue Rengui around Zhuque Street and bought three rouge powders.

After leaving Chang'an for so long, although they didn't say anything, women are born with an innate instinct for beauty.

I just wanted to write some letters and take them with me.
