The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

At dawn on the sixth day, the morning glow fell like silk on the palace in Chang'an City. Li Shimin stood in front of the window, staring at the distant sky through the delicate window screen. His brows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about something important. In the past few days, one thing has been bothering him - the laptop.

Because the people from the Shengtang Group were pressing on him step by step, waiting outside all the time.

Moreover, Wei Zheng had been waiting outside the palace for many days, hoping to be met by Li Shimin. However, Li Shimin was hesitant and did not dare to meet Wei Zheng because of the laptop. He knew that once Wei Zheng learned that this computer was with him, it would probably cause even greater trouble. Therefore, he chose to avoid it and hoped that the problem would resolve itself.

Wei Zheng stood outside the palace gate, his face full of anticipation and anxiety. He looked up at the towering palace and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

How could Li Shimin take away the research results of Shengtang Group?

At this time, Li Shimin and Queen Changsun were walking in the palace. They walked along the delicate flower path, admiring the blooming flowers and enjoying a moment of tranquility. However, this tranquility was quickly broken by the hurried footsteps of the eunuch.

"Your Majesty, Wei Zheng is here again, are you really missing?" the eunuch asked breathlessly.

Li Shimin's face suddenly became gloomy. He waved his hand to signal the eunuch to retreat, then turned to Queen Changsun and said, "See you, see you! I'm very busy now and don't have time to see him."

Queen Changsun looked at Li Shimin's expression and couldn't help but wonder. She knew that Wei Zheng was Li Shimin's important adviser, and Li Shimin usually treated Wei Zheng with great courtesy. Why is it so avoided now?

"Your Majesty, are you still worried about Wei Zheng's departure before?" Queen Changsun asked tentatively.

Li Shimin shook his head, sighed and said, "You guys stand down first!"

He motioned to the eunuchs and maids to leave first.

"Yes!"

After those people retreated, he continued: "That's not the reason. In fact, I don't blame Wei Zheng anymore. He left for a reason, and I understand him."

After hearing this, Queen Changsun became even more confused. She looked into Li Shimin's eyes and found a trace of uneasiness and anxiety in his eyes. She knew that something must be troubling Li Shimin.

So, she asked softly: "What is it that makes you so hesitant?"

Li Shimin hesitated for a while, but finally decided to tell Queen Changsun the truth. He took a deep breath and then said: "It's about the laptop. People from Shengtang Group found that the computer was in the palace, and they wanted Wei Zheng to come and get it back."

After hearing this, Queen Changsun was shocked. She knew the importance of this computer to Shengtang Group and understood why Li Shimin was so hesitant. She thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, since this computer is so important to Shengtang Group, we might as well return it to them. This will not only avoid causing greater trouble, but also demonstrate the integrity and generosity of our Datang Group." .”

After hearing this, Li Shimin was silent for a while. He knew that Queen Changsun was right, but he just couldn't bear to hand over the computer like this. He sighed and said: "I know you are right, but I am just not willing to hand over the computer like this. After all, this computer also has a huge impact on the future of our Datang. If it is given to them, what else will we have to play with? ?”

Empress Changsun sat quietly next to Li Shimin. Her eyes were as clear as autumn water. Through the layer of faint worry, she looked deeply at Li Shimin. She knew that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was in a much more complicated mood at the moment than he showed. His hands trembled slightly, holding her fingers tightly, as if trying to find some strength and courage from her.

Empress Changsun gently held Li Shimin's hand. Her fingers were as gentle as feathers, and her voice was as warm as the spring breeze: "Your Majesty, the overall situation is more important. We cannot affect the future of the entire Tang Dynasty because of personal gains and losses. I I believe that as long as we adhere to the principles of integrity and generosity, our Datang City will surely become more prosperous."

Li Shimin looked up at Queen Changsun, with a complex light shining in his eyes. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly, as if trying to calm his inner turmoil. He nodded, with a bitter smile on his lips: "I know, but there is one more thing, that is, if I hand it over, it will prove one thing to the world, that is, I took the Shengtang Group Something? How embarrassing it would be to tell it!"

Queen Changsun looked at Li Shimin, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes. She knew that Li Shimin's worries were not unreasonable. However, she knew better that what the Tang Dynasty needed at this moment was not only the emperor's authority, but also the emperor's wisdom and decision-making. She gently held Li Shimin's hand and looked at him firmly: "Your Majesty, I know what you are worried about. However, we cannot let the future of Datang be threatened just because of our personal face. We should think of the overall situation. Put the interests of the country first.”

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart after listening to Queen Changsun's words. He knew that he had a queen who understood and supported him. He looked at her deeply, then nodded, his voice firm and powerful: "You are right, I will make the right decision."

Queen Changsun didn’t know what to say. Because that's actually the case. But what can they do? "But if we don't pay, they will still come. We can't keep seeing them. Seeing them come so many times shows one thing, that is, that thing is very important to Shengtang Group."

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel nervous when he listened to Queen Changsun's words. But he knew that this thing must not be handed over.

"Let me think about it again!" Li Shimin said. He also wanted to think about what to do. Queen Changsun kept looking at him, hoping that he would make a decision. He looked at her deeply, then nodded and said, "You are right, I will make the right decision."

"I think we must meet each other. Otherwise, it is not an option if they are outside all the time."

"God knows if that guy Li Min asked him to do it. Wei Zheng usually doesn't do this." Li Shimin said. However, Empress Changsun said again: "Your Majesty, where did you say it went? If we had lost something, how could we not be in a hurry? They are outside, and it is just a last resort."

When Li Shimin heard what she said, he said nothing more. "Think again!"

He hasn't made up his mind yet. He wondered if Wei Zheng would leave on his own later. It would be great to leave.

However, while they were talking, Wei Zheng outside had no intention of leaving. He set up his tent and decided to wait outside the palace gate. As night falls, the lights outside the palace gate are brightly lit, complementing the candlelight inside the palace. Wei Zheng's figure looked particularly firm under the light, and his eyes were persistent and firm, as if he was waiting until Li Shimin gave a clear answer.

Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. She knew that Wei Zheng's decision might bring greater pressure to Li Shimin. However, she also knew that this was what Li Shimin had to face. She gently held Li Shimin's hand. Those hands were once so strong, but now they seemed a little trembling. She looked at him firmly, her voice gentle but firm: "Your Majesty, no matter what decision you make, I will support you." Li Shimin looked at Queen Changsun, his eyes shining with gratitude. He knew that at this critical moment, what he needed most was the Queen's understanding and support. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly, as if to encourage himself. He nodded, with determination in his eyes: "Here, let him in!"

Queen Changsun calmed down a little, and it turned out that Li Shimin still listened to her words.

After a while, Wei Zheng was brought to Li Shimin. He stood at the entrance of the palace, his eyes shining with determination. He knew that his decision might bring some trouble to Shengtang Group, but he believed that it was for the future of the group. Although his steps were a little heavy, his eyes were extremely firm.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng and couldn't help but feel a surge of complicated emotions in his heart. He knew that Wei Zheng used to be a loyal and upright minister, but now he is a loyal supporter of the Shengtang Group.

His decision must be out of loyalty to the Shengtang Group. However, he also knew that this decision might bring some unnecessary trouble to Datang. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil.

Empress Changsun has been standing behind Li Shimin, silently supporting him. Her eyes were full of trust and encouragement, as if telling him that no matter how many difficulties lay ahead, she would be by his side and face them together with him. Her hand gently placed on Li Shimin's shoulder, giving him silent comfort.

Wei Zheng looked at Li Shimin, his eyes shining with determination. He knew that he had to think about the future of Shengtang Group, even if it would cause him to disagree with Li Shimin. He bowed deeply and then said: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask of you."

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng, knowing that this decision was not easy for Wei Zheng. He nodded and motioned for Wei Zheng to continue.

Wei Zheng took a deep breath, as if to suck all the doubts and confusion into his heart. His gaze was firm and profound, as if he could see through people's hearts. He spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful: "Your Majesty, according to the Shengtang Group's investigation, the recently lost laptop actually flowed into the palace. This matter is not trivial. It not only affects the reputation of the group, but also involves the entire Shengtang Group. Financial security. The common people boldly ask Your Majesty to order a thorough investigation into this matter and bring justice to the Shengtang Group."

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in his heart when he heard Wei Zheng's words. He was secretly glad that Wei Zheng didn't know the truth, otherwise things would have become extremely difficult. However, his face remained calm and deep, as if everything was under his control.

Li Shimin nodded slightly, with a hint of majesty in his voice: "Shengtang Group has lost something, so naturally you should look for it yourself. How can you go to the palace to look for it?" His eyes fell on Wei Zheng, seeming to be searching for him. heart.

Empress Changsun was observing silently from the side, and she felt a strange feeling. This man she once loved so much now left her shocked and confused. She couldn't understand why Li Shimin would say such things.

However, she knew Li Shimin's personality well, and his obsession with laptops had reached the point where he couldn't extricate himself. Perhaps it was precisely because of this obsession that he made such an unexpected decision.

Wei Zheng couldn't help but feel nervous when he listened to Li Shimin's words. He knew that although Li Shimin's words were harsh, the matter must be investigated. He can't let Shengtang Group suffer losses! He took a deep breath and continued: "Your Majesty, although this matter is a bit tricky, the evidence about the flow of the notebook is conclusive. Please ask your Majesty to send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly and bring justice to the Shengtang Group."

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in his eyes. He knew that Wei Zheng had understood what he meant. He nodded, with a hint of determination in his voice: "Okay, let's do it. I will send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly and bring justice to the Shengtang Group."

After Wei Zheng heard this, he was not relieved. On the contrary, he was even more stressed. Because he had found out the truth, it was Li Shimin who got the laptop. However, he couldn't say it directly. He was worried that this would break his face and make Li Shimin lose face.

But the more this happened, the more Li Shimin thought he didn't know.

This is not easy to handle.

"What? Aren't you leaving yet?" Li Shimin couldn't help asking as he saw Wei Zheng standing there motionless.

Wei Zheng hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, this matter is very important. Please pay attention to it." There was a hint of sincerity and worry in his voice.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng's expression and couldn't help but want to ignore him.

He nodded, with a hint of irritation in his voice: "Okay, I understand, you can go down."

However, Wei Zheng did not leave immediately. He stood there motionless, as if thinking about something. There was a complex expression on his face, including worry and anxiety, helplessness and confusion.

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng's expression and couldn't help but feel a little confused. He didn't know what Wei Zheng was thinking, or why he refused to leave. However, he did not ask further questions and just waited quietly.

After a while, Wei Zheng finally spoke. There was a hint of determination in his voice: "Your Majesty, I know this matter is a bit difficult, but I believe that Your Majesty can give justice. Please send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly and bring justice to the Shengtang Group. Don't let the ordinary generals When that person finds out, it will be difficult for him."

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a sense of boredom in his heart when he listened to Wei Zheng's words. He nodded, with a hint of determination in his voice: "Okay, I will send someone to investigate the matter thoroughly and bring justice to the Shengtang Group."

After Wei Zheng heard this, he took a deep look at Li Shimin, then turned and left.

Queen Changsun watched him leave, not knowing what to say.

She didn't understand why Li Shimin didn't admit it, since the other party had clearly made it clear.
