Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2029
Chang Xi has given up hope of finding someone who can steal the gunpowder.

Such a big crime, who will stand up?
However, at this moment, a man named Erhu appeared in front of him.

"Master Chang, I want to see Your Majesty."

Seeing Erhu like this, Chang Xi was stunned for a moment, because based on his understanding of Erhu, he felt that the current Erhu was very strange.

The former Erhu was a submissive person, let alone the emperor, even if he met a slightly older official, he couldn't even speak clearly.

But today, he wants to see the Holy Spirit, which is really interesting.

"You want to see His Majesty? It's ridiculous, do you think His Majesty is someone you can meet if you want?"

"I'm the one who stole the fireworks."

Hearing this, Chang Xi was stunned.

In fact, before that, he had doubted many people, but he had never doubted Erhu. He didn't look like a thief who stole fireworks.

However, now that someone admits to stealing fireworks, it is a good thing for Chang Xi.

If no one can be found, Li Shimin still has to punish him?
Chang Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to send Erhu into the palace recklessly, but made a decision after asking him about the process of stealing the fireworks.

According to Er Hu's narration, Chang Xi felt that what he said was seamless and just fit the situation.

"Er Hu, Er Hu, I really didn't expect that you are the one who stole the fireworks. Okay, okay, since you want to enter the palace, then I will send you to the palace."

After Chang Xi finished speaking, he hurriedly took the two tigers into the palace. At this time, the fireworks in Chang'an City had just come to an end, and the smell of gunpowder in the east and west cities was very strong.

After entering the palace, Chang Xi went into the imperial study and told Li Shimin about the situation. Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard that someone from Chang Xi's place stood up automatically. He felt that Li Chengqian's method really worked. The person who stole the fireworks was tricked out.

"Let that man in."

Chang Xi took the order, and not long after, he escorted the two tigers in.

"Your Majesty, he is Erhu. He admitted that he stole the fireworks."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "You stole the fireworks?"

"Returning to the Holy Spirit, it is true that I stole the fireworks."

"You stole fireworks, why?"

Erhu hesitated for a moment and said, "I thought it was fun, so I stole some."

"Really, how could it be lit in the prince's private house?"

"This this……"

Li Shimin's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "To be honest, otherwise I will make your death ugly."

Erhu shivered all over his body, and then continued: "Returning to the sage, in fact...in fact, it was stolen by the grass-roots His Royal Highness. His Royal Highness wanted to know the formula of gunpowder, so he asked his subordinates to steal some. Let him study."

When he said this sentence, Erhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He just wanted to frame Li Chengqian. Since Li Chengqian only needs one person to help steal the gunpowder, then if he said this, Li Chengqian would be dead, right?

But when Erhu was thinking this way, Li Shimin snorted suddenly: "It's all nonsense, to tell you the truth, the news you heard was all the prince's idea, in order to lure you, a thief. The gunpowder thief appeared, I really didn't expect that you are actually framing the prince, now you are honestly explaining, who told you to do this?"

Li Shimin's majesty is unparalleled in this world.

After he opened his mouth to say such words, that Erhu was stunned all of a sudden.

He never thought that he would be deceived?
All this is just a game set up by Prince Li Chengqian?

Then he stood up so stupidly, wouldn't it be useless?
His dream of pulling Li Chengqian down from the crown prince was shattered, and he was exposed.

However, although Erhu was stupefied, he still hadn't lost his mind and composure. After Li Shimin roared like this, he just knelt down and begged for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me, please forgive me, all of this was done by Caomin alone. , has nothing to do with anyone else."

"You did it alone? You stole the gunpowder, and who set off the fireworks in the prince's private house? Do you think I'm a fool? You'd better tell the truth, or I will make you regret it."

Horror, horror, Chang Xi was standing beside him at this time, completely frightened by the situation in front of him, he couldn't turn the corner.

But the Er Hu who he always thought was submissive, still didn't panic at this time.

"Your Majesty just killed the Caomin. This was done by the Caomin alone. It has nothing to do with anyone else."

Seeing Erhu like this, Chang Xi couldn't help admiring him a little. If he encountered such a situation, he wouldn't be able to do this.

But Li Shimin snorted: "Since you want to die, then I will let you die, come here, pull him out and stick him to death."

Everyone retreated, but Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief.

He wanted to know who was killing Prince Li Chengqian, but he was afraid of knowing, because he didn't want to see his sons killing each other, and now that the two tigers didn't say anything, to him, he was the one he wanted to know result?
As long as this matter is not investigated, there is still room for maneuver.

The prince was released by Jin Yiwei. When Li Shimin saw the prince, he smiled: "Your method is good, that person was quickly attracted, but it is a pity that he refused to confess to death. Killed by the stick."

When he heard this result, Li Chengqian was not angry. He knew that it was not that his father couldn't ask, but he just didn't want to ask. Otherwise, he would hand over the two tigers to Jin Yiwei. Can't ask anything?
"It's good if I can return my son's innocence."

Li Shimin nodded: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest."

"My son retire."

Li Chengqian retreated. At this time, the fireworks in Chang'an City had been completely wiped out, but the east and west cities were still very lively.

The people here don't know what happened that night, they don't know that someone is facing the greatest danger in life.

They are just ordinary people, and sometimes ordinary people are the easiest to be happy.

The news that the two tigers were killed by the stick quickly spread among some people.

When someone heard the news, some people felt a little sorry. If he didn't show up, Li Chengqian might really be abolished.

Some people think that this Erhu is really stupid. If he is stupid, he would like to be beaten to death, if he is not already dead.

Of course, among these people, there is one person who is very fortunate that Erhu didn't expose himself, otherwise he might not have a good life.
