The jade horse presented by Li Shimin was carved out of a whole piece of red jade.Yuan Yuxue stroked the jade horse's slender mane, turned her head and said to Wuqing: "This piece is actually engraved with my former war horse, named Nanfeng. This must be the portrait painted by the second brother himself. Then ordered people to carve it."

She put the jade horse on the table and adjusted the angle. The high-spirited and heroic posture of the steed was displayed vividly in front of the two of them, as if it was still alive, as if it was still galloping forward bravely and fearlessly. .

"It was originally a gift from the Turks to my second brother. It was a beautiful sweat horse. The second brother got two horses and gave one to me. Then he kept one for himself. His horse was called Telbiu , when we attacked Song Jingang later, we rode these two horses. The sweat horse really deserves its reputation. When we chased Song Jingang, we didn’t get off the horse for three days. We were either chasing people or killing people. We were tired. Dead, many people's horses couldn't take it anymore and fell to the ground, our horses were unscathed, unfortunately, if we didn't go together, brother Li would not agree with second brother to chase again."

She explained with Wuqing: "Brother Li is Li Shiji. At that time, he went out with the army and was the chief of the army. Brother Yuchi was still under Liu Wuzhou's command! Later Song Jingang was defeated and we went after him again. Who knew he ran away by himself In the hands of the Turkic people, he died just like that.”

Having said that, Yuan Yuxue shook his head: "If he was willing to surrender to the second brother back then, he wouldn't have died so aggrieved."

Although he has always been famous for his literary and martial arts, known as the sect of Shoucheng, he is actually the ancestor of pioneering, but Li Shimin has always been very principled and loyal, but all the enemy generals who surrendered to him not only did not lose their lives, but many be reused.

Wu Qing rested her chin on one hand, and focused on her side face all the time. When she was telling the past, her eyes were full of vitality and arrogance, which made her whole face seem to be dotted. Light up the general brilliance.

He looked too seriously, so that when Yuan Yuxue turned to look at him, the words on her lips suddenly stopped.Afterwards, she leaned over resolutely, held the ruthless side face, and sucked his cool lips.

Seeing this situation, Lan Jun, who was standing in the corner as an attendant, couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, in order to avoid the gentleman

Fang's future uncle felt embarrassed when he turned around, and immediately slipped away without a sound.Of course, the perceptive big head catcher would not fail to notice her movements, but he also enjoys being close to his sweetheart for a moment, so he only thought that he was just trying to gain fame and found nothing.

"Hee hee." When they were separated from him, Yuan Yuxue still gently held his face with one hand, touching his forehead, her long and curly eyelashes fluttered twice like butterfly wings, and asked in a low voice: " Does it mean that after we get married, your ears won't turn red when I kiss you?"

Ruthless: "..." That might be really hard to do.

"So, do you like fighting?" He could only change the subject in time and ask in a low voice.Yuan Yuxue didn't care about him, but straightened up, and replied generously: "How is it possible, who would like this? Even I hate the minimum who stays up for days and nights, kills non-stop, and eats those nasty things." Eat dry food, analyze the enemy's movements day and night, and prepare for surprise attacks that may come at any time..."

"...The comrades who talked to you the day before may be corpses the next day."

She paused, then pretended to be nonchalant and said: "However, I am the younger brother's younger sister after all. No matter how hard and tiring I am, I am much better than others. But whatever the second brother has, I always have a share."

——Although during the war, Li Shimin was the most hard-working, tired, and painful person in the world.He always ate and lived with the soldiers, and often took the lead in the charge. He had many horses of various bloodlines and origins, but most of them died on the battlefield.

"...Actually, at that time, there was another white sweat horse, as white as snow, that was sent over with Nanfeng and Trebiu at that time, and it was so beautiful!" Yuan Yuxue stretched out her hand and gestured towards Wuqing for a moment. "It was dedicated to the prince. The second brother saw that I liked it very much, so he said that he would find a way to exchange it with the prince, but how could his elder brother buy him so easily, and the matter would be settled in the end. If so, it would be fine." Forget it, but within two months, the horse died, it is said that it was too wild to be tamed, and accidentally injured the prince when he was riding the horse, so he was killed by the prince's attendants."

"As soon as this incident happened, my sister immediately advised my second brother that if he couldn't make it to the top, sooner or later he would die of 'too wild to be tamed' like this white horse!"

Speaking of this, Yuan Mixue realized that she had

The time went too far, and I couldn't help but smiled at Wuqing with a little embarrassment: "My sister is actually not such a cruel person, but at that time, the life and death of the second brother is no longer his life and death alone."

After all, behind him stood his wife, his children, his brothers, his subordinates... Among these people, who would want to accept their fate?

"I understand." Empress Changsun is such a smart and courageous person, she has already told it vividly and vividly in a few words in the history books. She was even close to the change of Xuanwumen, and her attitude towards her husband's seizure of the throne will definitely be full of strength. Support, and the history books have already strongly proved that this seizure of the throne did not bring disaster to the new dynasty, on the contrary, it was the beginning of the rise of a great dynasty.

"Okay, let's not talk about these old things." Yuan Yuxue said. "This thing is probably sent by the second brother to comfort me after listening to my brother's family affairs. You have been busy in the Criminal Department for so many days, and you didn't come back to rest at night. Are you done with your work now?"

This is actually one of the purposes of Ruthless's trip, so he told her in detail what everyone had done in the past few days: because the prince was in charge in person, the entire Criminal Department was united, and the efficiency was unprecedentedly improved. The prince reads all the case files first, leaves comments, and then submits them for review. However, if anyone feels that there is something wrong with the case, he can withdraw the case file and ask questions in the next discussion. Keep a record, put it aside, and then hand it over to Liu Dufeng, Shenhou Mansion and Dali Temple Assistant Manager to investigate and deal with it. This unprecedented handling mode really made everyone in Shenhou Mansion flattered and deeply moved.

"His Majesty Tang Taizong is worthy of being a sage of a generation." Wuqing sighed.Although according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, every case file closed by the Ministry of Criminal Justice must be submitted to the official for review before the final decision can be made. However, it is a well-known fact that Shang is in poor health and is reluctant to even deal with government affairs. How can we ask him to do everything?

"In fact, I was the one who investigated some cases at the beginning. It's just that although I can investigate the case, I can't influence the final judgment of the criminal department." He said in a deep voice, and there was inevitably a bit of indifferent anger in his condensed voice. Come. "However, most of the time, if you don't find out the real murderer, you will definitely be able to make the murderer plead guilty..."

"I understand." Yuan Mixue took his hand. "But the truth, always the truth

Xiang, ruthless, are you the one who will just give up?Now that the second elder brother lost his temper because of this, it is your opportunity. As long as the evidence is solid, no matter whether he is a senior cabinet official or a relative of the emperor, anyone who commits the crime will naturally have to pay for it! "

That's right, the prince now has the heart to rectify the Ministry of Punishment, who can't see it?Before this, the Ministry of Punishment has always been the head of the three divisions, holding great power and difficult to shake. At this time, a gap finally appeared. If you don’t take this opportunity and cooperate with the prince to clean it up, you will clean up all the old cases today. , such a filthy thing, how can there be no reason not to repeat it in the future?

"So..." After a moment of ruthless deliberation, he continued. "I should leave Beijing soon to handle the case."

Yuan Yuxue had already noticed this matter when he just laid the groundwork for his statement. After all, many old cases have been going on for a long time. If you want to reverse the case, it is natural to go back to the old place and collect evidence.She has no objection to the upcoming separation, but she is inevitably worried about Wuqing's unhealed legs: "Then before you leave, you have to ask your brother or dad to show you your legs, and you have to listen to them when you go out." Just ask. I still look forward to traveling all over the country with you in the future, but I don’t want anything to happen to your legs.”

"Don't worry, that...of course it's also my hope." Wuqing stroked her side face and said softly. "It's just that it's hard for the two elders to come. I was supposed to be around and follow orders, but I can only be there for such a short time. It's really embarrassing..."

"You are doing business, how can you stick to the love of your children, father and the others won't mind." Yuan Yuxue said disapprovingly. "When Guan Qi's illness recovers, I'll go to see you. Anyway, the marriage is up to my father and Mr. Zhuge, so we just have to wait and salute, right?"

This... Wuqing felt that it was inappropriate, and she was reluctant to reject her kindness, but she still asked with concern: "Lunxue, are you planning to go back to Guan Qisheng and your mother?"

"Of course, I'm the daughter of my father and my father!" Yuan Yuxue replied firmly.She is a person with a firm mind, and once she makes a decision, she will not change it easily, so hearing her tone ruthlessly, it is clear that she has made a decision.

And he naturally has to respect the choice of his sweetheart.

"I see

up. "He nodded slightly, expressing his attitude. The two held hands, and it was inevitable that they exchanged a few heartfelt words. They agreed to go to the outskirts of the city tomorrow to see the gift the prince gave her, and then returned to Shenhou mansion ruthlessly, Yuan Yuxue Naturally she got up and saw her off, playing with the jade horse in her hand as she walked—that is, for a moment, a spark of enlightenment flashed in her mind.

Although he fully considered his younger sister's preferences, Li Shimin gave her the south wind back then, of course not for fun, but because her original mount died on the Gaochai battlefield where Xue Ju was crusaded, so the second brother paid for the new one. For her, but it was also in the early stage of the expedition, as a preparation for their expedition against Song Jingang!

So is he giving this jade carving to her just to comfort his sister, or is he reminding her that it's almost time to go out again?

The author has something to say: Ruthless: I am on a business trip.

Sister: It’s okay, I’ll accompany you when I finish my work (Bi Xin)

……

Sister: Gan, I seem to be on a business trip too!

Is this the daily life of couples who get together less and leave more?
