Datang: Salted fish at the beginning, Gao Yang was given marriage by Li Er

Chapter 447
The moonlight is dimly hiding behind You Yun, and in the Tai Chi Palace, the candles are burning, revealing a warm yellow color.

When a court lady came from the side door with herbal food, Empress Changsun lifted a corner of the gauze curtain and looked at the sad-faced figure lying on the bed, a touch of distress floated on the jade face.

After receiving the medicated meal handed over by the maid, she retreated from the maid and gently sat down next to Li Shimin on the bed again, blew a sip of the medicated meal on her vermilion lips, and handed it over.

"Your Majesty, eat some."

The figure on the bed opened his eyes slightly, his face was full of exhaustion, he stretched out his hand to push away the spoon brought to the corner of his mouth, sighed slightly, and propped up his elbows intending to get up.

"I have lost my appetite these days."

"This kid is gone for a day, and he always feels less fun in his daily life, and the food is not delicious."

Putting away the medicinal food and placing it on the short table next to the bed, Empress Changsun helped Li Shimin to go to the head of the bed, pulled off the white underwear that was covered by the corners, stretched out her hand to gently caress the thinned cheeks, and smiled lightly.

"Your Majesty, you are making things difficult for the concubines."

"That child has such a stubborn temper. It was like that when he was summoned to the Imperial Academy in the hall. Why should His Majesty be sentimental about this matter?"

"Li's residence is still in the imperial city. Where will he go as a 20-year-old boy? It's just that he is tired from the long journey, and he has been wronged this time. Sooner or later, he will come back."

Over there, Li Shimin raised his hand, holding the Rou Yi who was caressing his face in his hand.

"Maid Guanyin said it lightly, this child is probably still blaming me now!"

"Although it is not tortured like other prisoners in the prison, it is a statement that damages reputation after all."

"In the final analysis, I still owe this child too much. In terms of what he has done, in the short span of nearly two years, no one in the Tang Dynasty has been able to push the entire Tang Dynasty as far as you can."

Slightly lowering his head, Li Shimin stroked his slender hand and sighed.

"Yeah, just like he told you."

"The development of agriculture and mulberry in the Tang Dynasty, this year's harvest is full of storage, and more people no longer worry about food. The firearms and sharp weapons left behind have shocked many neighbors. There will be more to wipe out the East Turks..."

There was a pause in the words, and Li Shimin seemed to be muttering to himself.

"In the current barracks, I can't rest assured."

"Duke Wei spent his entire life as a soldier, a warrior who opened up the territory for me, now he is thanking guests behind closed doors, insisting that he is old and weak and unwilling to take on the important task of the military camp. Duke Lu has also imitated one after another... Guanyin maidservant, this step, I Is it... Really wrong?"

The lights on the pillars of the palace flickered suddenly, and Eunuch Rong hurried in. The moment the conversation in the hall stopped suddenly, Eunuch Rong stood in the hall with his hands folded, his high-pitched voice echoing in the hall.

"His Majesty."

The words that were about to speak suddenly stopped at the moment when he caught a glimpse of Empress Changsun, turned around and lowered his posture, and shouted respectfully.

"The Queen Mother."

Although they were discussing political affairs in the same dynasty, Empress Changsun knew that she was in charge of the harem, so she tactfully helped Li Shimin straighten his clothes and said in a low voice.

"Your Majesty likes to rest and recuperate, so the medicinal food is put down in front of the bed, and it's the right thing to drink while it's hot."

With Li Shimin's affirmative nod, he folded his palms and bowed slightly to his lower abdomen.

"Chen and concubine retire."

Passing in front of Eunuch Rong who was obediently keeping his hands folded, Empress Changsun once again gave Eunuch Rong instructions on the matter of the medicinal diet, and then took the lotus steps to lead the maid out of the palace.

The silhouette on the window sill went away, Li Shimin brushed aside the quilt and sat up suddenly, got up and got off the bed, walking with his hands behind his back, he still looked weak before.

Eunuch Rong hurriedly took his coat from the hanger next to the bed and put it on Li Shimin's shoulders.

"His Majesty."

"Rumors spread everywhere in the imperial city, and it was rumored that Li Xian was a traitor to the party. Rumors spread without warning in tea shops and wine shops, confusing the public."

Steady footsteps stopped, and Li Shimin stood in the center of the palace gate, turning his head slightly.

"This matter has already been reported before, so I picked up some key points and said."

"Yes!"

Eunuch Rong was a little afraid to look directly at the figure in front of him. As a veteran minister who had been beside His Majesty for several years, he naturally knew what the King liked and hated.

And the words that follow are exactly what the Holy Grail hates!

The inconspicuous Adam's apple in his throat was rolling, and Eunuch Rong was already sweating on his forehead before he could speak. He carefully considered his words, and a trembling voice came out of his lips and teeth.

"The people behind the rumors are the guests of Prince Wei's mansion and... and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's disciples..."

"The spies sent out already have the testimony in their hands...whether to arrest?"

The cool and star-lit pupils shone brightly, the muscles on Li Shimin's face twitched, his eyelids were slightly half-closed, and there was an indescribable ferocity.

Humph.

A hot breath spewed out from the nasal cavity, and a burst of anger was brought out from the words.

"I do have two good sons!"

"People behave in the same way, and run away from the back. I haven't learned much about governing the country. After learning these crooked ways, one is smarter than the other!"

Bang.

Flicking off his sleeves, Li Shimin strode into the area illuminated by warm yellow, and sat down on the soft couch. There were traces of rising anger on his face reflected by the lights.

"They love to quarrel, so I want to watch them quarrel!"

"The Avalokitesvara servant has been in control for a long time, and the mention of it for a long time actually made these two people intensify! Is my hero also an idea that the two of them can fight?"

"Pass down my will, spies should not act rashly, I want to see how many tricks they can have."

Eunuch Rong wiped the sweat off his forehead lightly, and nodded repeatedly.

Li Shimin's country was taken from his own brothers, so he naturally hated these two people who spread rumors everywhere and wanted to cause a dispute for the crown prince.

If this matter is put on other ministers, I am afraid that the house will be ransacked overnight.

It's just that both of them have the status of princes, their status is respected, and it is natural to be cautious when they are involved in the position of prince.

While slowly retreating out of the palace, there was a sudden sound from the seat at the head of the palace.

"Wait!"

In the eyes of his eyes, Li Shimin raised his hand slightly, and pointed to the medicinal food on the side of the bed.

"There is no need to send the medicated food. I will tell the imperial dining room to make some nourishing porridge. If the empress asks about it, I will answer according to the medicated food."

"Throw them away."

"Eh! Eh!"

Eunuch Rong, who had withdrawn halfway, hurriedly got up, walked to the side of the bed, and took the medicinal meal.

When walking to Li Shimin's side, he hesitated for a moment, boldly looked at Li Shimin's dignified face, and asked words cautiously.

"His Majesty."

"This matter... the empress's side..."

His brows sank, Li Shimin took a few breaths and waved his arms.

"Let's not let Guanyin's maidservant know about this for the time being."

Amid the promise, Eunuch Rong moved his steps and hurried out of the palace.

The cold starlight faded in the warm light of the candle, Li Shimin quietly looked at the swaying branches on both sides of the corridor, and let out a long sigh.

"Guanyin servant girl, take a good look at what these children of mine have done."

"Maybe it's time to teach them some lessons and make them wake up."

Chapter 448:
The moonlight is like water, pouring silver light onto the houses with extinguished candles, and the imperial city gradually fell asleep amidst the sound of the gongs of the watchmen.

Insects were buzzing in the field. Frogs that lurked at night and crawled up the soil, spit out their long tongues to touch the lively insects on the grass, looked at the workshop in the wilderness, and jumped to the field in panic.

The rustling armor shone through the surroundings of the workshop, and rustling voices sounded in the dark night.

"Hey~ The newly appointed Mr. Wen seems to be the mainstay of the Ministry of Labor and Industry. How did he make the whole firearms camp into a mess? Let's talk about these craftsmen, who eat and serve food, and are all in the dormitory now. A big sleep. Some timid people with their wages clamoring all day to go back home to live, and they don’t know what they are thinking? It’s like we like to imprison them.”

"What do you know! Do you really think that this imperial food is delicious? At the beginning, Li Xianke issued a military order with His Majesty, beheading the light ones, and confiscating the house in the serious ones. According to the current situation, two hundred thunderbolts that were shoddy Hasn't been picked yet, where are the new fill warehouses?"

"Hey! Don't tell me, the iron bump looks like half a melon, it's really hard to remind people of the explosion in the garden that day. But these more than 200 pieces are placed in the courtyard like this. I’m really not afraid of death.”

"What are you afraid of! How have these craftsmen ever seen these things? It's all hearsay about power, who has seen it with their own eyes? What are you afraid of?"

"That's true, anyway, we are in charge of guarding, other..."

boom!Boom!

The huge roar covered up the words behind, and the loud sound seemed to tear the eardrums apart.When the eyes caught a glimpse of the flames rising into the sky, the scorching air wave crashed down the adobe wall of the courtyard, and the air wave wrapped in dust and sawdust rushed straight towards the face, tossing the figure.

The continuous sudden sound was like thunder from heaven, lashing the ground ruthlessly, shaking the sand and gravel, like countless yaks trampling on the ground angrily, terrified the people lying on the ground who hadn't stood up yet.

The ears seem to be completely deaf at this moment, and someone in the orange-red eyes is on fire, rushing out of the workshop that has turned into a sea of ​​​​flames in panic, beating around.The crossbar broke and splashed, and the figure guarding the attic fell from the collapsed attic, and was crushed into meatloaf in a blink of an eye.

The air is filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder, and the red background of purgatory is full of fleeing crowds.

The figure lying on the ground looked at the workshop that had turned into a sea of ​​flames, and instinctively stumbled to his feet. When the sound gradually recovered in his ears, he raised his throat and exclaimed.

"The firearms camp... is on fire!"

……

The sound of horseshoes spread from the gate of the imperial city, and rushed to the gate of the old mansion of Shangshu Wen, who had not been there for a few days. His scorched and blood-stained face was full of horror, and he slammed the knocker on the gate of the mansion, rushing to open the door The inspector's servant screamed.

"Go... hurry and report to Mr. Wen."

"The firearms camp...the firearms camp is on fire!"

Soon, the entire mansion was completely boiling.

The steward in unlined clothes ran to Elder Wen's dormitory with a pale face, and shouted to the maids in the yard to change the clothes for Elder Wen. The lamps in the house were lit up one by one, staring at Elder Wen with black eyes. He walked out of the house in a daze, and looked around in a daze.

"It's a big deal, my lord!"

"The Firearms Battalion...the Firearms Battalion is gone..."

……

The distraught old man stared at his disheveled silver hair standing in front of the firearms camp workshop.
