Chapter 401 It's hard to determine, which demon and which god

Lanzhou came to make a memorial. A military information report written by Xiao Liang in the governor's office, and a blood letter written by Qin Mubai.

Above the court, the pot finally exploded; the streets and alleys of Chang'an were like a bomb thrown into the quiet deep sea, and the voices of the people were boiling.

Since the Wude Emperor of this dynasty ascended the throne, there has never been such a tragic case - the subordinate country rebelled and killed the feudal officials, not to mention that it was the world's famous founding hero, Qin Shubao, the god of war!

Some people cry, some people laugh; some people are happy, some people are worried, some people wake up in a dream like a head, and some people are panicked all day long - pink and ink all sentient beings are enough.

In a word, Chang'an has never been silent and calm as before.

In the face of the bustling ministers and passionate people of the dynasty, Changsun Wuji did not say a word, and it was even more impossible for Chu Suiliang to make a final say before Changsun Wuji. When the two leaders and assistants of the dynasty behaved in this way, Li Zhi, the prince of Jin, was already in chaos. Therefore, it was very natural that he took Changsun Wuji and Chu Suiliang to the harem to invite the emperor Li Shimin.

A strange thing happened - the emperor, who was originally nestled in the harem to recover from illness, disappeared. No one knew where he had gone. He didn't even take a hundred-rider guards and disappeared alone.

Everyone knows that this is not Li Shimin's style; he is so abnormal that he must have important measures... Everyone looked around for nothing, so they all guessed where would the emperor go at such a critical jusis? Where can he go?

......

Li Shimin has been out of the palace more than once or twice, but this time, no one thought that he would come out of the palace in Weifu. He would go to Zhongnan Mountain and walk into a small Taoist temple that was not inconspicuous and even a little broken.

"I, am I really old and have become mediocre. Military and state affairs, don't ask the minister to ask Fangshi. Li Shimin held a cup of tea in his hand and laughed at himself with a bitter smile, "You two, would you like to give me some advice today?"

The two people sitting around Li Shimin, a middle-aged man in a snow-clothed light robe with a high purple crown, and his face was as brilliant as pearls and jade; the other old man's green shirt was simple and white-haired, with wooden hair and crane hair, floating like an overseas immortal.

Old man Yuan Tiangang, middle-aged Li Chunfeng!

"Brother Yuan has been wandering for a long time, and he will return to the customs soon. Since your majesty knows the way of the king, he should discuss the military affairs with the ministers. Indeed, he should not have come to ask me and the other two of them. Li Chunfeng said.

Yuan Tiankang's expressionless eyes were clear, and he sat down comfortably, stroking his white beard without saying a word.

"Since I'm here, there is no reason to go back empty-handed." Li Shimin said, "You can treat me as a fool!"

"Is your majesty a faint king or a wise king? It's not up to you. We can't assert it." Yuan Tiancong, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth and spoke very slowly. His voice was not loud, but it could penetrate the person and reach the viscera as if there was magic. It seems that as long as he opens his mouth, no one will ignore his word.

"Mr. Yuan is a master of Taoism and has his own integrity. But this time, I have to break your rules once. Li Shimin said, "Let's stop gossiping. I would like to know, what do you and Li Chunfeng think of the stars these days? What's the matter with the Tang Dynasty?

Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tianxi looked at each other and sighed at the same time after a long silence.

"Why do you sigh?"

"Your Majesty, I will tell you the truth." Li Chunfeng, the Taishi Ling, who was in charge of Si Tianjian, said, "As early as four or five years ago, that is, one day in the winter of the tenth year of Zhenguan, there was a demon star breaking through the sky."

"Why don't you report it?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chunfeng coldly.

"The reason is very simple." Li Chunfeng said, "Weichen didn't find it at that time, but it was only after a chance."

"Who is the demon star?" Li Shimin asked directly.

Li Chunfeng lowered his eyebrows and did not look directly at Li Shimin, but his lips shook unnaturally and did not answer.

"Is it Qin Mubai?" Li Shimin asked and answered himself. His face was already seven times solemn. He said in a low voice, "Is he a demon star that harms the country and the people? Is he a demon star who is bad for the spirit of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Chunfeng shook his head and arched his hand and said, "Weichen, I don't know."

"I don't know?" Li Shimin frowned and stood up and said, "Are you afraid of revealing the sky to break your longevity or what? Have you forgotten that I am the son of heaven, but I will die in an instant?

"Your Majesty forgives me, Minister Wei, I really don't know." Li Chunfeng forced his hands calmly and modestly, "Weichen and Brother Yuan practice together. Weichen is good at divination and Ziwei, and he will deduce the fate of Tianyan. However, Weichen is not good at learning, and it is really unclear whether he can perform. Is this demon star bad or auspicious for me, Tang Sheji?

"It's not only a demon star, it's just for harming the country and the people. What else can I say?" Li Shimin said, "In this case, I order him to kill him in order to eliminate future trouble!"

"Your Majesty, wait!" Yuan Tianyang suddenly raised his hand, and his voice sounded like a bell.

"What does Mr. Yuan have to say?" Li Shimin put his hands on his lower abdomen and squinted at him.

"In ancient times, there are clouds, blessings and misfortunes, and misfortunes and blessings." Yuan Tianang said, "Your Majesty, I have never seen Qin Mubai, and I haven't had a chance to meet him. However, the poor road once criticized the people around him face to face.

"Let's talk about it." Li Shimin said, "Mr. Yuan's criticism of fortune-telling should be like a fairy, and there should be no difference."

"The first time I missed each other in my poor life was given to Qin Mubai's father, Qin Shubao, Duke of Yi Kingdom." Yuan Tianguang said, "As early as a few years ago, it was calculated that the life expectancy of the Duke of Yi was less than 50. The oil was exhausted and his limbs were disabled, and he vomited blood and died in his hometown. However, Duke Yi lived to the age of 55 and died in Gaochang for the country.

"What does this mean?" Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, listen to the poor words again." Yuan Tianang said, "Thirteen years ago, the poor road gave orders to a child face to face. He is talented. If he is born as a daughter, he will take Li Tang Jiangshan instead. Unfortunately, she is a boy.

"Woman? Take me, Li Tang Jiangshan and replace it?" Li Shimin couldn't help smiling, "Mr. Yuan, your joke is too much."

"Your Majesty can naturally take this as a joke, because it will not come true at all." Yuan Tianyi took a sip of tea and said lightly, "This is the most inaccurate gossip in his life."

"What do you say?" Li Shimin was puzzled.

"Poverty Tao once calculated that if she was a woman, she would be selected into the harem to serve as your majesty's subordinates, serve two generations of emperors of the Tang Dynasty, and finally replace the hen Si Chen, and kill most of your majesty's dragon son and grandson." Yuan Tian'ang said, "Moreover, this is the number of days. There is no way to avoid it. Even if your majesty kills him, he will still indomitablely replace him with Li Tang, or 30 or 50 years later, that's all. This is a heavenly star, irreversible!"

"Isn't Mr. Yuan contradictory?" Li Shimin said, "You just said it clearly that this can't be fulfilled."

"It's not contradictory at all." Yuan Tianguang twisted his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "In fact, the poor road was wrong in those years. The child with Longzi Fengyan is actually a girl dressed as a man! That is to say, the country of the Li family will inevitably fall into her hands, and your majesty's dragon descendants will also be countless in her hands!"

"I'm confused. What on earth are you trying to say? Li Shimin frowned and was a little angry.

What I want to say is that a few years ago, your majesty did want to recruit this girl into the harem, but it didn't get what he wanted. It is also because of this that the Tang Dynasty has lost a period of the fate of changing the country, and it has also blocked a catastrophe for your majesty's dragon son and grandson. Yuan Tian'ang said.

Li Shimin was stunned and couldn't help staring: "You mean...Wu Zhao!?"

"Yes."

Li Shimin suddenly looked suspicious and frowned, "According to Mr. Yuan's meaning, is that the demon star Qin Mubai solved this disaster for my Li family?"

"That's what I mean." Yuan Tiangan's eyes looked directly into Li Shimin's eyes and said, "Your Majesty, arsenic is very poisonous, which can cure diseases; the wine is fragrant and rotten. As Chunfeng said, it is hard to say whether this demon star is a blessing or a curse. It is like a sharp blade. The murderer uses it to do evil, and the gooddoer uses it to reward good and punish evil.

"You have said it for a long time, which means you didn't say anything!" Li Shimin snorted and said unhappily.

"God's will is unpredictable, and Weichen really can't assert it." Li Chunfeng took over and said, "Your Majesty doesn't have to hesitate, let alone listen to our people and deal with state affairs."

"I'm not so confused yet." Li Shimin sighed again and said, "In fact, I just went out of the palace to relax. Although the palace is big, after the queen fairy, there is no one who is confidant; the literary and martial arts of the dynasties, the gap between the court and me is getting deeper and deeper, and the truth cannot be heard. I am also confused and helpless. Therefore, I want to ask Tianmai Gua, and I want to know what's going on with the world of the Tang Dynasty? In the past few years, there have been frequent wars, and the gods and ghosts have danced around the imperial court. Am I really old and useless? Is it time to abdicude?

"Your Majesty's youth is full of ambition, and the people praise the country. Why should you underestimate yourself?" Yuan Tianyang said, "In ancient times, it has been a cycle of heavenly principles that complement each other's yin and yang. This world is governed by chaos, from great governance to chaos. In the Tang Dynasty, which has been flat for more than ten years, suddenly the four fields were restless, and it was inevitable that the people would suffer money and bloodshed. However, such chaos is not necessarily a bad thing. If you compare this Kyushu world to a person, if you are not sick, it does not mean that there is no lesion accumulation. When the lesion accumulates to a certain extent, it will break out and you will fall ill... If you don't get sick for a long time and accumulate too many lesions for too long, once it breaks out, it may be an incurable serious illness and terminal illness. At this time, the strength of the Tang Dynasty is still strong, and your majesty's youth is still in place. Why don't you take this opportunity to cure the disease? Do you have to keep it backlog until a hundred years later, and my Tang Dynasty's disease will enter the bone marrow?

Li Shimin's eyebrows darkened and his eyes were slightly restrained, and he fell into meditation.

After a long time, he said, "Mr. Yuan, according to you, it is Qin Mubai, the demon star, which stimulates the lesions hidden in my body of the Tang Empire in advance?"

"Why isn't that so?" Yuan Tianguang said, "In front of his eyes, he stirred up trouble and provoked war, trapped the world in chaos, and made the army and the people suffering from war. He is indeed an unforgivable demon star in troubled times. However, in the long run, the Tang Dynasty will have to face these wars he has provoked sooner or later. At this time, the power of the Tang Dynasty is still strong, and your majesty is in charge of the universe. Imagine, if these wars happened a hundred years after your majesty, when the national strength of the Tang Dynasty declined, what would it be?

Li Shimin's expression did not change, but the lint was very unconsciously trembling.

"Your Majesty, in recent years, the imperial star has been clear and the demon star has penetrated the rainbow, but the imperial star has not declined because of this." Li Chunfeng continued, "It's only because the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty can't stand your majesty's uneasy mind. And although the demon star disturbs the star palace at this time, it will be of great benefit to the emperor's star sooner or later, like a supplement!"

"Have you discussed it? What benefits did Qin Mubai give you? Li Shimin looked at the two people with torches and said, "You often talk about the words 'the opportunity of heaven can't be leaked'. Why did you say so much to me today?"

Li Chunfeng smiled bitterly and arched his hand and said, "Isn't it because your majesty is the real dragon emperor and has the right to live and kill? Weichen and Brother Yuan are just Fang Ye warlocks who eat by opening their mouths. They are not half-immortals that the people exaggerate and spread from word of mouth. Therefore, we are also afraid of death!"

"Haha!" Li Shimin finally laughed, "That's good! After listening to the strangeness for a long time, I finally heard a big truth! - I won't pay attention to what you said and whether you have leaked any secrets. Today, I came out to relax. All right, it's time for me to go back to the palace. My precious emperor should have been unconscious for a long time. If I don't go back to the palace to preside over the overall situation, it will really be a mess!"

"Gong Your Majesty!" The two got up to see each other off.

Li Shimin walked to the door, suddenly turned around, frowned at Yuan Tiankang, and said, "Mr. Yuan, why don't you look at me? Just say, how many more years can I live?"

"Your Majesty is the son of heaven, not a mortal, and you can't face your majesty." Yuan Tianguang was also calm.

"Huh--" Li Shimin looked at Yuan Tianang, laughed dumbly, shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Yuan often thinks of himself as a master outside the world. It seems that he is just a world warlock who can't avoid vulgarity."

Yuan Tiangan smiled and bent down to pray, "Your Majesty, you don't have to provoke me. I have already said what I should say."

"Well... I also know that you have never said trivial things, and you won't really spit out the open-air machine. For example, for things like Push Back Picture, you don't report it to me. Li Shimin glanced at the two of them with a sharp edge, no more words, and waved his robe and went away.

Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tianang suddenly looked at each other in a cold sweat, and it took a long time to come to their senses.

"Brother, Brother Yu is leaving again. The emperor's star is faint and difficult to determine, and the national fate is unpredictable; alien stars are like demons and gods, and the Chinese spirit is mysterious... It's a mystery, you and I haven't seen through it! However, it seems that Your Majesty is quite dissatisfied with you and me. Hey!" Yuan Tianang said.

"Fools are also helpless! ...Well, let's leave Guanzhong first! - Where are you going to travel?"

"...Lanzhou!"

Riding on the twilight clouds, Li Shimin ran down to Zhongnan Mountain and walked more than half a circle around Chang'an City. When Chang'an was about to close the gate, he entered the city silently from the sparsely populated Yanping Gate. Then he led the horse alone on the aisle in the inner square. The horse's hoof was full, and his mood was repeated.

The Yiguo Mansion has arrived. From afar, it can be seen that the twelve-sided square halberd stands in Xunmen.

The door is empty, and there is no one. The door is half closed and half closed, and there is silence inside.

"Squeak", Li Shimen pushed the door and entered, and a little green bricks and dust sprinkled on the top of the eaves and fell on his black gauze head.

"In Shubao's family, is there no glazed tile in such a rich courtyard?" Li Shimin couldn't help but stop and wait and see. He still looked outdated a few years ago, and it hasn't changed at all. There is no water pavilion without the platform. In addition to simplicity, there is only a unique strength and vigor of the military martial arts family.

Li Shimin can't help but feel hurt.

"Shubao, you have been following me for more than 20 years. You have been charging into battle and dying. Not to mention making great achievements, you have saved me from danger several times..." In a low voice, Li Shimin's voice has been slightly choked, "I'm sorry for you... You are old and sick, and I still let you throw your head on the blood on the expedition, and finally died in the battlefield. ...I! ...It's beyond my heart!"

Just then, a servant came to the inner house quickly, wiping his tears while running. At first glance, he didn't know Li Shimin. But it seems that he is very popular and knows that he is by no means idle, so he said cautiously, "Where do you come from? What can I do for you?"

"Conces to the Duke of Yi." Li Shimin said with a smile and handed the reins to the government.

The government servant hesitantly took over the rein and couldn't help asking, "Do you dare to ask the driver's name? The villain can also return the hospitality to the house. The head of the family died in a foreign land and did not return. He only set up a crowned spiritual position, so... he did not inform his relatives and friends to come to express his condolences, and there was no hospitality at home. If there is anything wrong, please respect and forgive me.

"In return, the master, just say... It's Shubao's old friend. I'm here to express my condolences. There's no need to treat him." Li Shimin said.

"So... please..."

Following the official, Li Shimin walked towards the main house hall.

In the house, there was indeed no filial piety and mourning. Only a spiritual hall was set up in the middle room. The spiritual center was black and bitter and white. First, on a spiritual position, there was Qin Shubao's spiritual card for incense niches and candles.

When Li Shimin just walked to the door, the Qin family, who were crying in the hall, was shocked.

"Your Majesty!"

Qin Tong and Qin Bin, the two legitimate sons of the Qin family, knelt down to greet them in a hurry. The heartbroken mother of Qin, Liu Shi and Shuang'er, also struggled to get up and prepared to kowtow.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin took a step ahead of them, knelt down in front of Qin Shubao's spiritual pivot and hissed, "Shubao! Take your time! - People of the world, I've sent you here!"

"Bah, "Bah", three big heads!

"Your Majesty, if you don't sacrifice your husband or wife, this is unusable!" The Qin family was scared and came to help in a hurry.

"Do not help me!" Li Shimin shouted, "This is not a court, and I'm not a king today!" I'm just here to mourn my good brother who was born and died, a good brother who makes me ashamed for the rest of my life!"

"Bah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,

The Qin family cried bitterly and bowed back.

Li Shimin lay on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. Naturally, the Qin family did not dare to get up.

"Shubao, Shubao, Shubao... Twelve halberds of the Xunmen, 18 victories of the Great Desert, this is your credit, and it is also the Tang Dynasty owes you; the colorful tiles of the rich family, there are heroes in the family, this is what you repay me, and it is also what I owe you..." Li Shimin fell on the ground, chanted in a long voice, and his voice trembled - "In this life and this life, you let me, what Do you want to return it?

"What do you want to pay back!!!"

It's almost roaring!
