Although there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, Li Shimin still planned to tolerate it for the time being.

Li Shimin frowned at the thought of continuing the negotiation, and then looked at Concubine Yang aside.

From the report just now, Li Shimin also knew that Concubine Yang could play a very limited role in this matter.

The other party can only help him save some face in front of Yang Hongyu.

Thinking of face, Li Shimin thought of the incident in the morning when he surrounded and suppressed Chu Mo's people.

He turned to Li Xiaogong and said, "Has Zhai Changsun come back?"

Li Xiaogong was promoted to commander of the Forbidden Army by Li Shimin after Li Junxian was injured.

Hearing Li Shimin's inquiry, Li Xiaogong shook his head: "Reporting to the Lord, Master Zhai has not been heard from since he left the city."

Li Shimin frowned.

Logically speaking, Zhai Changsun led 800 Xuanjia troops to attack, and no one or force around Chang'an dared to invade.

But now that so much time has passed, not only is there no news, but no traces have been found.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin said to Li Xiaogong: "Ask the other parties to pay attention. If you find any news about Zhai Changsun and Wang Junkuo, you must report it as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Li Shimin glanced at Concubine Yang next to him, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing that there was no movement on her face, Li Shimin sighed softly and continued:

"If Wang Junkuo and his group of rebels are not eradicated as soon as possible, I am afraid that over time, disaster may occur. And although Zhai Changsun's 800 Xuanjia troops are not large in number, if they defect like Wang Junkuo did, I am worried that they will unite. ."

"Moreover, today's interception of Chu Mo is my private matter. If it gets spread, I'm worried that some people will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

After saying that, he looked at Concubine Yang again, trying to find something on Gu Jing Wubo's face.

But Concubine Yang had grown up in the palace and had seen a lot of various conspiracies, so how could she reveal her flaws in front of Li Shimin.

Seeing that Concubine Yang's intention was not revealed through testing, Li Shimin waved his hand to Li Xiaogong impatiently and said, "Ask the manpower as soon as possible to get these two things done."

After Li Xiaogong accepted the order, he immediately withdrew.

Seeing Li Xiaogong leaving, Li Shimin asked all the attendants around him to withdraw.

Seeing that everyone had dispersed, he looked at the silent Concubine Yang and said, "I have worked hard today, my concubine. I wonder what Chu Mo's attitude is about this incident?"

Concubine Yang secretly cursed in her heart: You Li Er, you have been testing for a long time, why don't you come and ask me.

Although she was quite dissatisfied with Li Shimin, Concubine Yang did not dare to show it. She pondered for a while and then said:

"According to my concubine, Chu Mo seems to be quite dissatisfied with the Lingnan area, and he has not yet made up his mind whether to hand over those supplies."

"Furthermore, Chen Concubine and Wang Dehai offended him today because of their words. Therefore, if Chen Concubine is allowed to go there again, I am worried that the other party will not let him go."

Thinking of Chu Mo's character of falling out at once, Li Shimin agreed very much with Concubine Yang's words, and couldn't help but nodded: "What my concubine said makes sense, Chu Mo's falling out is faster than taking off his pants."

Concubine Yang, who originally thought that after Li Shimin listened to her words, would not let her get involved again, her heart tightened when she heard Li Shimin's next words.

"But my beloved, have you ever thought about Chu Mo being so arrogant and wanton, who gave him the courage? If he leaves the Yang sisters, what kind of person is he?"

"So, in order to make the scoundrel restrain himself, and to make the Yang sisters have some scruples, I think it would be better for my beloved concubine to go with her when we go to Shiweitian tomorrow."

Seeing that Li Shimin still wanted to drag her into shame, Concubine Yang felt depressed, but she did not dare to refute.

So he nodded and said: "Since His Majesty has already made a plan, I will accept the order."

Looking at Concubine Yang with complicated eyes, Li Shimin waved his hand: "Now that it's agreed, Concubine, get ready. Let's go to Shiweitian together early tomorrow morning."

After Concubine Yang left, Li Shimin asked the secret guards to keep an eye on the other party's every move to see if the other party would send the news to Chu Mo.

I also wanted to test whether Chu Mo knew whether the disappearance of the 800 Xuanjia troops was related to Chu Mo.

However, what disappointed him was that after Concubine Yang returned to the palace, she stayed behind closed doors, and the maids and eunuchs around her did not come into contact with anyone.

After receiving the report from the secret guard, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time became worried about the missing 800 Xuanjia troops.

You must know that the Xuanjia Army in his hands only had less than 3500 people in total, and he only lost 800. How could he not feel distressed.

Although there was no news of the destruction of the Xuanjia Army, Li Shimin knew with his military intuition that these 800 Xuanjia Army would never come back.

While Li Shimin was worrying about the Xuanjia Army, Chu Mo also returned to Shiweitian.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt something was wrong in the atmosphere of Shiweitian. Why did the waiters and shopkeeper Liu look at him in the same way as the passers-by outside?

However, Chu Mo also saw a hint of schadenfreude and pity in their eyes.

The inexplicable Chu Mo endured everyone's gaze and returned to the backyard in confusion.

As soon as he stepped into the backyard, he saw two little girls, Yang Hongzhu and Yang Paifeng, looking at him in surprise.

Before Chu Mo could speak, Yang Hongzhu took the lead and said, "Big bad guy, I asked you to go find her when you come back."

As he said that, he made a face at Chu Mo, looking like he was gloating about his misfortune.

At this time, no matter how bold Chu Mo was, he knew something was wrong.

However, now that I'm back, I might as well go see my wife first and see if I can ask her anything.

As soon as he stepped into the door, Chu Mo saw Yang Hongyu, dressed in white, sitting there with a frown on her face, as if she hadn't noticed her arrival at all.

With a slight smile, Chu Mo came behind Yang Hongyu, put his hands on the other person's shoulders, and started kneading them.

Yang Hongyu, who was in a daze, was touched by Chu Mo on her shoulders and woke up suddenly. When she turned around, she saw Chu Mo squeezing her shoulders.

She couldn't help but feel happy. Just as she was about to ask when the other party came, she saw the clear slap mark on the left side of Chu Mo's face.

Look at that mark, it was definitely left by a young woman.

Immediately, the original joyful mood suddenly sank to the bottom.

Yang Hongyu, who was already angry at Chu Mo for carrying her to Zuixiao Tower for a tryst, was even more angry now.

So, he slapped Chu Mo's kneading hands away, stared at the other party with cold eyes, and asked word by word: "What's the matter with the slap on your face?"
