A lot really happened that night.

said that it was a night, but in fact, it was not even midnight, from Han Yue leaving the palace to beat Li Tai, to going to Li Chengqian's palace after he beat Li Tai, from entering the palace to being besieged, and then to the Qianlong Organization and the right Wuwei army sweeping......

Before and after the time, at most two hours, if you put it in the modern era of the future, it is the time for a group of single brothers without girlfriends to masturbate a few games of League of Legends.

However, in just two hours, a major event happened that was enough to rewrite the entire court. Li Chengqian fell, Li Tai was instigated, the army suspected of rebellion was slaughtered, and Hou Junji, the secretary of the military department, was guilty.

In front of the Taiji Palace, the imperial forest stands.

"You, get me in......" A cold reprimand suddenly came from the hall, it was Li Shimin's voice, the emperor's voice was angry, and there seemed to be a trace of regret in the anger.

Hou Junji smiled bitterly and strode in.

After entering the door, I saw that there were only two people in the huge palace, one was Emperor Li Shimin, and the other was Han Yue, who had just returned to the palace.

Except for the two of them, there was not even a little eunuch waiting in the palace, and a huge electric lamp hung above the hall, illuminating the entire palace.

Hou Junji took a deep breath and walked over and slowly knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister... I ......"

When he came, he said that he had become a king and lost several times, and he felt that he would not shake his mind even if he was dying, but when he saw Li Shimin's figure at this moment, he suddenly remembered his life for some reason.

He was born in poverty, lost his parents at an early age, worked hard with the emperor since his youth, the glory of his life is here, the achievements of his life are here, from the poor peasant baby all the way to the national prince, the general, the six books of the dynasty, the dignified military department......

The past is unbearable, one son made a mistake and lost all, Hou Junji only felt sadness from it, although he gritted his teeth and didn't want to be sad, but heroic tears rolled down in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, guilty......"

He kowtowed heavily and fell to the ground.

Li Shimin's eyes were cold, and there was a trace of suffocation in the coldness, and the emperor suddenly shouted violently, and said sharply: "Hou Junji, are you worthy of me?" ”

Hou Junji knelt on the ground and cried.

Li Shimin's chest continued to rise and fall, and he said angrily: "The civil and military princes of the Manchu Dynasty, you are the youngest, when the country was first established, it was I who made you the prince of the country ...... the public."

The more the emperor said, the more angry he became: "Among all the princes, I admire you the most, and you are the most important, when the Xuanwu Gate changed, Cheng Zhijie was fighting in the chaotic army with a big axe, he was hit by four arrows and three knives, bleeding enough to fight, his credit is greater than yours?" But I only named him a general of Zuo Wuwei, and when the military department of the court, I asked you to do it. ”

Hou Junji burst into tears, lying on the ground choked and unable to speak.

Then Li Shimin couldn't stop and shouted: "There is also a royal marriage, the eldest son of other princes can only marry a princess, and the eldest daughter can only marry an ordinary prince, but what about your daughter Begonia?" I tried my best to give marriage to Cheng Qian, and made Haitang the princess's concubine. ”

Hou Junji's body shook suddenly, and he said cowardly: "Your Majesty, the guilty minister... I ......"

"Shut your mouth and listen to me!"

Li Shimin roared violently, suddenly snatched the Son of Heaven Sword from Han Yue's hand, and pulled out a sharp arrow with a sonorous sound, and the sword light flickered in the hall.

The emperor held the sword of the Son of Heaven in his hand, gritted his teeth and said: "I rose from the Qin Palace, and there are three hundred hardcore heroes under my command, some of whom are old and some are young, but no one can compare to your heavy responsibility. I named you the general of the country, and let you sit in the military department of the court, who can achieve such an achievement at your age throughout the ages? But what about you, how do you repay me? ”

Hou Junji's face was full of shame, and tears in his eyes mixed with blood on his forehead flowed all over his face.

Li Shimin sighed lightly and said regretfully: "I have always known that you are ambitious, and I like your ambition. I use it against all odds, both because of your ambition and because of your youth. The other founding princes are getting older, so I want to train you and make you the patron saint of the next generation of emperors of the Tang Dynasty, but it's a pity, it's a pity ......"

This is indeed the case in history, there are many historians who have puzzled the power structure of Li Shimin's period, and there were countless heroes at the beginning of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

However, the person who had greater credit than him did not become the secretary of the military department, but Hou Junji became the secretary of the military department.

The reason is as Li Shimin said, because he is young and domineering, as long as he makes good use of this talent, when Li Shimin dies, he will become the patron saint of the next emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

It's a pity that Hou Junji did something wrong for his daughter, he wanted to push Li Chengqian to power, and he must make a move to Han Yue.

From ancient times to the present, in all dynasties, ministers have participated in the struggle for imperial power, and they are most resented and suspicious by the emperor.

The emperor suddenly shook his head sadly, slowly walked in front of Hou Junji with the sword of the Son of Heaven in his hand, and sighed: "Little white ape, give me a reason not to kill you......

Hou Junji's body was shocked, and he couldn't help but look up at the emperor, seeing that the emperor's face was full of hatred, and the tears in Hou Junji's eyes were even more turbulent.

The title of Little White Ape is the number given to him when he first saw Li Shimin when he was young, when he had just learned martial arts, because of the flexibility of martial arts, and the appearance of a white-faced scholar, so Li Shimin was very surprised, and praised him as Little White Ape.

The emperor's sentence of the little white ape obviously remembered the events of the war back then, and Hou Junji was not like this, and he became more and more ashamed in his heart.

At this moment, he didn't complain anything, just leaned down heavily, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty doesn't have to keep your hands, the criminal has nothing to say, I am guilty of a great crime of rebellion, and not killing is not enough to deter ......future generations."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth, seemed to become particularly angry, and yelled: "You evil beast doesn't even beg for mercy? Why don't you beg for mercy? ”

Hou Junji smiled miserably and muttered: "I feel ashamed in my heart, it is difficult to speak, Your Majesty, you should know that the criminal minister is a hard character." ”

"Tough temperament, hard temperament, I will kill you with this hard temperament...... Li Shimin's tiger eyes breathed fire, and he suddenly flew up and kicked Hou Junji the neck.

This kick was so strong that it immediately kicked Hou Junji down, his head slammed to the ground, his mouth snorted, his eyes rolled suddenly, and he fainted.

"I'm angry and ......"

Li Shimin kicked Hou Junji unconscious, and suddenly thrust the sword of the Son of Heaven in his hand into the ground viciously.

The Taiji Hall was paved with hard stone slabs, and Li Shimin used too much force this time, and the sword of the Son of Heaven hit the stone slab with a sonorous sound, and it was broken from the middle.

Han Yue next to him was startled, and said eagerly: "Father, the sword of heaven ......"

"If it's broken, it's broken, shut up for me!"

Li Shimin was very angry, opened his mouth to scold Han Yue, and said: "It's just a long sword, I say it's the Son of Heaven Sword, it's the Son of Heaven Sword, I want to say that it's an ordinary long sword, who in the world dares to disagree?" If it's broken, it's broken, and tomorrow someone will make another one. ”

Han Yue was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that what Li Shimin said was very right, the so-called Sword of the Son of Heaven is just a name, and all of it has authority, that is because the emperor regarded it as a sword.

Once the Emperor's aura is lost, this long sword is indeed an ordinary sword.

For Li Shimin, even if he wants to beat and kill people with a piece of firewood, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty must be obediently next to each other, with the blessing of the emperor's halo, there is actually no difference between firewood and the sword of the Son of Heaven.

"Yue'er, tell me, what should I do with Hou Junji?"

Li Shimin turned around suddenly, and his tiger eyes flashed with sharp light.

Han Yue glanced at Hou Junji, opened his mouth to answer, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and his face became hesitant.

What kind of character Li Shimin is, he can see through Han Yue's thoughts at a glance, how can the emperor allow Han Yue to push and push, and shouted angrily: "There is no need to hide anything, there is only you and my father and son here, and there is no need to pretend to be speechless." The reason why I drove out the guards and eunuchs is to talk to you about secret things......"

The emperor behaved like this, he was angry and scolded, this kind of situation was very abnormal at first glance, if Han Yue didn't understand it, he was really a natural fool.

His eyes rolled slightly, and he cautiously tentatively said: "Father, in fact, you have an idea in your heart, you don't want to kill Hou Junji at all, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, I saw that the anger on Li Shimin's face suddenly disappeared, and the emperor was meaningful, and there was still anger on his face, and he turned around and turned into a smile of great relief.

"Those who know me, Yue'er, I am very relieved to finally see you grow again......"

Li Shimin chuckled, suddenly beckoned Han Yue to stand closer, and said in a low voice: "I once told you that being an emperor cannot have hatred and resentment, and only interests and trade-offs are left in my heart. Hou Junji really shouldn't be killed, it's not that I'm reluctant to give up, but it's more useful to keep him than to kill him. ”

He glanced at Han Yue and said earnestly: "Yue'er, you remember, this is the emperor's way of choice, those with the big interests stay, and those with small interests give up, leaving Hou Junji's interests is greater than killing him, so I don't want to kill him." ”

Han Yue's heart moved slightly, and he vaguely felt that he had some understanding, but he pretended not to understand on his face, and flattered Li Shimin and said: "The minister doesn't understand this matter too much, and I ask my father to tell me about it." ”

What a character Li Shimin is, how could he not see that the eldest son deliberately curried favor with himself, the emperor suddenly laughed and scolded, but he did not expose it.

He actually explained it to Han Yue.

"Yue'er, you should know that it has been 14 years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and although it is only a nascent dynasty, the generals who can fight well are gradually going downhill. Because if you count from the former Sui Dynasty, these generals have actually fought for more than 30 years, Cheng Zhijie is over 50 years old, Li Tao is over 50 years old, Niu Jinda is over 50 years old, and Li Yaoshi is also over 50 years old......"

Han Yue's eyes flashed, and he blurted out: "Only Hou Junji is the youngest, he is not yet forty years old, if the child remembers correctly, General Hou is only thirty-eight years old this year." ”

"Not bad!"

Li Shimin nodded heavily, and said: "The change of dynasty, to keep the commander of the town, although I am now at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, Cheng Zhijie and they can still fight for more than ten years or twenty years, but after more than ten years, the young generation of generals in the Tang Dynasty may grow up, but there is a lack of handsome talents who can lead the army......"

He glanced at Han Yue and said softly: "Although there are six fierce generals under your command, none of them are commanders, so it's okay to let them charge into battle, but it's not okay to let them command the big army to fight." ”

Han Yue nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Only Hou Junji is handsome, and after more than ten years, he will only be around fifty years old, which is just right to be the handsome man who guards the Tang Dynasty." ”

The emperor smiled with relief, very satisfied with this eldest son. He stared at Han Yue with tiger eyes, and suddenly said, "Yue'er sacrifice and marry Hou Haitang." ”

Han Yue was stunned for a moment.

It turned out that the emperor's ultimate goal was to sell his body.
