Chapter 78
Following the conversation between the monarch and his ministers, Shu An didn't feel anything. Now Li Shimin is the emperor of Tang Dynasty.

Changsun Wuji's back was already sweating. This was a sign of nervousness. His Majesty forced Li Junxian to make a decision, but he had no intention of showing him.

Once it was confirmed that Changsun Anye was involved in the rebellion, then how should he deal with himself? For a while, Changsun Wuji kept turning his mind, trying to find a way to eliminate his suspicion first.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Changsun Wuji didn't have many choices and knelt on the ground and said, he didn't dare to sit on this stool anymore, he was afraid that he would go to jail later.

Li Shimin glanced at Changsun Wuji indifferently, he was naturally aware of the grievances between Changsun Wuji and Changsun Anye.

Coupled with the fact that Changsun Wuji is already an important minister in the court, it is impossible to go further even if it is a rebellion.

"We'll wait until the results come out."

Although he knew about this matter, Li Shimin didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't say much.

Li Shimin also couldn't stay in the Shu mansion anymore, because how could he sit still after discovering such a thing.

After Li Shimin left, Changsun Wuji also followed. Now the best way for Changsun Wuji is to do nothing, and directly following Li Shimin is the best solution.

Shu An's eyes flickered as he watched the two leave. Speaking of this Yi'an King Li Xiaochang, he might remind people of Li Xiaogong.

But the two really don't have much relationship, Li Xiaochang can be regarded as Li Yuan's son-in-law, but son-in-law is not worth much in this era.

Even if his own son was a concubine, he wouldn't pay attention, let alone his daughter, the most important Li Yuan had many children.

On the other hand, after Li Shimin returned to the palace, he began to summon several trustworthy ministers and the Duke of the State, because the imperial guards could no longer be trusted, so he could only transfer troops from outside Chang'an.

Cai Guogong Mansion
"Cai Guogong, His Majesty summoned you urgently."

A guard of Baiqi came to pass the decree, causing Du Ruhui's eyes to be a little puzzled. Didn't the court meeting just end in the morning, did something urgent happen?

And Du Ruhui also discovered the change, that is, it was not the little eunuch in the palace who delivered the decree this time.

Du Ruhui was just one of them, and several other princes who were as confused as he were all gathered in the imperial study.

Standing in the imperial study room, the several princes looked at each other with confused faces, apparently not knowing why His Majesty summoned them.

Of course, they also noticed Changsun Wuji standing in the front row with his head down.

"What happened to this old fox?"

Many Dukes murmured in their hearts, knowing that Changsun Wuji usually does not have this attitude, and now he seems a little downcast.

At the same time, as soon as they entered, they found that the atmosphere was not right, that is, His Majesty's face was cold, as if he had changed into a different person.

"Since I ascended the throne, I have been working hard day and night. I never thought that someone would bully me in just one year."

Li Shimin's words sounded slowly. Although there was no emotion in the words, except for Changsun Wuji who had already known the truth, his heart couldn't help but thump.

"Pass this secret report."

As Li Shimin's words sounded, Wang De respectfully accepted the secret report beside him.

Li Junxian secretly arrested some people, recorded their statements and compiled the report together. The content of the secret kept Li Shimin shocked.

It has never been seen that Li Xiaochang bought so many people, although some of them don't know about it, but a little convenience may bury hidden dangers.

The only thing that made Li Shimin fortunate was that his father did not participate in it, which made him slightly relieved.

Fang Xuanling, who was the first to read the secret report, couldn't help but change his face when he saw the content, which made the surrounding ministers even more curious.

After reading it, Fang Xuanling couldn't help passing it on to Du Ruhui, and Du Ruhui's face changed drastically, even he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

As for the generals, there were literate people whispering, but every sentence made the expressions of these horseback-born princes change.

At the same time, they finally knew why Changsun Wuji lowered his head, and it actually involved Changsun Anye.

Even if Changsun Wuji didn't participate, I don't know what this emperor would think.

"Your Majesty, I request five hundred elite soldiers to capture this gang of traitors."

"I only need two hundred elite soldiers. If only one escapes, I would like to guarantee it with my title."

After knowing why His Majesty was angry, the princes of the state couldn't help but speak, and there was also a lot of anger in their words.

After all, their wealth comes from His Majesty. If this King Yi'an succeeds in rebelling, then they need not say much, and the end will definitely not be so good.

Chang'an City Gate
"Quickly! Close the city gate!"

"What's going on, why did the door close so early today?"

"Look, there is a notice posted, it seems that spies have sneaked into Chang'an City."

"There are spies who dare to infiltrate Chang'an City. If they are caught, I will definitely throw a few rotten eggs."

As soon as there were voices of discussion, there was a hint of curiosity in the words, but there was no panic, anyway, the reason was already posted on the notice.

Whether they are scholars or ordinary people, they hate spies deeply. In this era, the martial spirit is still there, and everyone is not lacking in blood.

But soon some people discovered something was wrong, because many soldiers appeared on Chang'an Street.

Especially those officials in the DPRK knew that something big had happened, otherwise it would certainly not have happened, even if they were searching for spies, they would not be so fanatical. Now Chang'an looks more like martial law.

Yanliu Pavilion in Chang'an

This is the largest brothel in Chang'an, and there are often dignitaries and nobles, and the children of aristocratic families are fascinated by it.

A middle-aged man was drinking and having fun, watching the singing girls not far away kept dancing, and unconsciously became a little drunk.

"Tap!"

However, just as the sound of hurried footsteps came, it interrupted this glamorous luxury of singing and dancing.

Then a group of soldiers came in from outside the door. It turned out that some children of the aristocratic family who were interrupted were about to get angry, but they couldn't help but hold back when they saw that they were soldiers.

Because the chill coming from the soldiers' armor made them wake up involuntarily, and they couldn't help muttering in their hearts, what happened?

"Where is Changsun Anye?"

The captain led by the soldiers couldn't help but speak.

In an instant, the people in Yanliu Pavilion looked at each other in dismay, and then word of mouth passed on and finally learned the identity of the owner of this name, who turned out to be the half-brother of the current queen.

"What's the matter with my uncle?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man said with blurred eyes and a bit of alcohol.

"take away!"

However, the lieutenant didn't hesitate to speak out, and soon the left and right soldiers stepped forward to set up this uncle Guo and left Yanliu Pavilion.
