Chapter 292 Chapter 302: The heart of waste storage
"Poetry madness." Li Shimin said, "Since you are so proficient in painting, then after Zhang Shu's hand comes, let him describe the assassin's appearance to you, and you can draw it, is it possible?"

"My minister obeys the order." Li Hao bowed in secret joy, waiting for your words.

Li Shimin was overjoyed, and quickly sent someone to bring the painting table, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, but Li Hao said: "Your Majesty, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone can be removed, and I have brought my own paper and pen." After speaking, he took out a yellow paper bag and a stack White paper, put it on the drawing table.

Seeing this, Li Shimin asked suspiciously: "I have the paper, but where is the pen?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the pen is in this paper bag." Li Hao said as he opened the paper bag, revealing a pile of black things, which turned out to be seven or eight pieces of charcoal.

"Is this a pen?" Li Shimin was too far away to see clearly, only saw that it was black, like a small lump of coal, it was definitely not a pen anyway.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Hao said, "This is charcoal, which can be used as a brush. I call it a charcoal pen."

"Oh? Interesting." Li Shimin said with a smile on his face when he heard the words, "It seems that Poetry Maniac is going to show me something new again. This charcoal can also be used as a pen? This is the first time I've heard of it."

Li Hao thought for a while and said, "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, I can draw a picture right away."

"Okay, I'll draw one right away, just draw..." Li Shimin turned his head and looked around, pointed at Xu Lian, and said, "Just draw Xu Lian."

Xu Lian hurriedly knelt down excitedly: "This old slave thanks the emperor for his kindness."

"Get up." Li Shimin was in a good mood and urged, "Poetry Man, let's draw now."

"As ordered." Li Hao spread out the drawing paper, put it on the drawing table, and began to draw. Since there was no drawing board, it was tiring to draw with his head down, so he chose sketching, so as not to draw too long and his neck would be tired.

In just a few minutes, Li Hao threw away the charcoal, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have finished drawing."

"So fast?" Li Shimin originally wanted to take a nap, but he didn't expect Li Hao to finish the painting so quickly, so he hurriedly asked Xu Lian to submit it.

When Xu Lian walked over, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the paintings. This is a rule. When presenting something, the emperor must look at it first, and then he can look at it. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful.

Xu Lian held up Li Hao's painting and came to the dragon case, and presented it to Li Shimin. Li Shimin took it over and looked at it, his eyes lit up immediately, and he laughed and said, "Well, Li Shikuang, how much money have you kept in your possession? Skill, this painting is really lifelike! Come, Xu Lian, take a look." He said and handed the painting to Xu Lian.

Xu Lian took it over and looked at it, and suddenly trembled all over, the painting was really lifelike and lifelike, and it was exactly the same appearance and demeanor as he stood beside Li Shimin just now.

"This... this..." Xu Lian was extremely surprised, and blurted out in praise, "It's simply amazing, amazing skills, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin stroked his beard with a smile and nodded: "Xu Lian's words are very appropriate, it's his skill."

Li Hao hurriedly nodded and said: "Your Majesty is absurd, the painting skills are trivial, not worth mentioning, besides, this kind of painting method of this humble minister is at best a skill, not a skill, after all, the craftsmanship is too strong, and there is no artistic conception at all." , it’s hard to be elegant.”

"Haha, the poet is so humble." Li Shimin waved his hands with a smile. In fact, he also felt that what Li Hao said was right. The more similar the painting is, the better it is. There must be artistic conception. However, Li Hao's paintings are only from the technical aspect In other words, looking at the world is absolutely unparalleled.

Xu Lian was about to return his portrait to Li Shimin, but Li Shimin refused to accept it, saying: "Your own portrait, you can keep it, find a skilled craftsman to mount it, and pass it on to your nephew later. After Shikuang dies, this one Paintings might be priceless."

When Li Hao heard this, his eyebrows twitched. He found that Li Shimin was really unable to speak. Can he pass his brain when he speaks? When I die, curse me?

After nearly an hour, Zhang Xuansu finally came. After entering the palace mountain and praying, Li Shimin took the lead and said: "Zhang Shushou, this time you are summoned to let you describe the appearance of the assassin again." , Li Hao will draw the assassin according to your description."

"Ah?" Zhang Xuansu turned his head and looked at Li Hao in doubt, and asked suspiciously, "Li Hao can paint?"

Li Shimin smiled, waved his hands and said: "Don't be confused, I have seen the paintings of Poet Maniac before, and the paintings are very good, lifelike, and lifelike. Please describe it quickly."

"Obey." Although Zhang Xuansu didn't quite believe that Li Hao could paint, since Li Shimin said so, he couldn't disobey him, so he could only describe it to Li Hao.

Li Hao was not in a hurry to paint, but listened carefully to what he had said, and then picked up charcoal to draw. Soon, the painting was completed. Li Hao picked up the painting and showed it to Zhang Xuansu, and asked: "Master Zhang, assassin But what does it look like?"

After Zhang Xuansu saw the painting, he was dumbfounded. After a moment of stupefaction, he pointed at the painting excitedly and said, "Yes, that's him! It's this person! It's exactly the same!"

Li Shimin heard the words and hurriedly said: "Quick, present it for me to see."

Xu Lian presented the painting made by Li Hao to Li Shimin. Li Shimin took it over and took a look. The painting was of a young man who looked no older than 25 years old. His appearance was very ordinary. kind of.

Li Shimin looked at the painting for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked, "Poetry Man, can you draw a few more?"

"I obey." Li Hao bowed his head to accept the order, bowed his head and drew more than a dozen pictures, his neck and arms were sore, it really couldn't be done without a drawing board.

Seeing Li Hao constantly rubbing his neck and shoulders, Li Shimin knew that Li Hao was tired. When Li Hao finished drawing No. 15, Li Shimin raised his hand and said, "Poetry, it's okay, there are only so many."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Hao cupped his hands.

"Xu Lian, you will send these paintings to Dali Temple later, and ask them to post these paintings on the gates of the major cities in Chang'an. The extra ones will be posted in the city. I don't believe that the assassin can escape this time." Come on, hum!" Li Shimin's expression turned serious suddenly, and he said coldly, "You dare to assassinate an official of the imperial court in Chang'an City, you are quite courageous, after I catch the assassin, I will definitely let the Criminal Ministry torture and find out the person behind the scenes."

Li Hao suddenly said at this time: "Your Majesty, although I am not very good at investigating cases, I do know a little bit. If there is no conclusive evidence, you might as well try to start from other aspects to narrow the scope of suspicion."

"Oh?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he spread his hands, "What's the best idea for a poet madman?"

"I don't dare to take a good opinion, but I have a foolish opinion." Li Hao said unhurriedly, "Since the assassin cannot be captured for the time being, we might as well consider the motive of the murder. Why was Master Zhang assassinated?"

"I never thought about this." Li Shimin said depressedly, "But Zhang Shushou has always been honest and upright, and has never done anything wrong, so naturally he has no enemies. gone."

Li Hao shook his head and said: "Killing people is not a trivial matter, killing an official ordered by the court is even more important. There will be a considerable risk. The villain sent an assassin to take a huge risk to assassinate Mr. Zhang. He must have a great grudge against Mr. Zhang, otherwise all this will not make sense at all. .”

Li Shimin frowned and pondered for a moment when he heard the words, and asked, "Zhang Xuansu, tell me honestly, you really haven't offended anyone?"

"Return to Your Majesty." Zhang Xuansu fell to his knees and said impassionedly, "I have been working in the East Palace for these years, and I have never had any contact with my colleagues in the court. How can there be enemies?"

Li Hao frowned and asked, "Master Zhang, during your tenure in the Eastern Palace, did you offend anyone in the Eastern Palace?"

"Absolutely not!" Zhang Xuansu shook his head firmly when he heard the words, and said, "The old man works in the East Palace. He has always followed the etiquette in his words and deeds, and never had disputes with others. Only a few days ago..."

He almost slipped his tongue and said what he scolded Li Chengqian a few days ago, but he stopped in time. Li Shimin knew what he was going to say when he heard the words. Suddenly, Li Shimin's expression changed, as if he had thought of something, but in his heart He crazily suppressed this thought, not letting himself think about it, but the more he did, the more he felt that his guess was right. Zhang Xuansu didn't know about Qin Qiong's complaint, but Li Shimin knew it all.

Li Hao observed the change in Li Shimin's expression, and was secretly happy. His goal had been achieved. Although he failed to remind Zhang Xuansu, he reminded Li Shimin, yes, yes, this is his ultimate goal.

"I feel unwell all of a sudden, the two Qings should step back, I want to rest for a while." Li Shimin suddenly supported his forehead and waved them to leave.

Zhang Xuansu and Li Hao had no choice but to leave.

As soon as Li Hao and Zhang Xuansu came out of the Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin suddenly waved to Xu Lian, Xu Lian understood, and went to Li Shimin, Li Shimin said in a low voice: "You send Yin Yuanwei to the East Palace to investigate, I suspect... the assassin this time , belonged to the Chengqian sect."

"Ah?" Xu Lian was shocked when he heard this, his body trembled a little, did the crown prince send someone to assassinate his teacher?Something big is going to happen to this shit.

"What are you still doing?" Li Shimin stared and scolded, "Go!"

"Yes!" Xu Lian hurriedly nodded his head to accept the order, and stepped back in a hurry.

Outside the imperial city, Lin Dingkun was waiting not far away, Li Hao walked over, Lin Dingkun asked: "Master Hou, is it done?"

"Yes." Li Hao nodded with a smile, "Let's go back to Taibai Building and wait for the good news."

Lin Dingkun was overjoyed. After Li Hao got on his horse, Lin Dingkun led the horse and walked towards Taibai Tower.

In the afternoon of that day, Xu Lian came to Li Shimin to report: "Your Majesty, according to Yin Yuanwei's report, the assassination of Zhang Xuansu was really planned by the crown prince, and the crown prince said it himself."

"Bastard!" Li Shimin's eyes were fierce when he heard the words, and he smashed a glazed cup directly through gritted teeth, and said loudly, "Declarate my will, order Wei Guogong, Zhao Guogong, Liang Guogong, Zheng Guogong, Yiguogong, the British Lord, Duke Lu... immediately enter the Palace of Manna to have an audience!"

Half an hour later, all the princes summoned by Li Shimin came and stood in two rows in the Ganlu Hall.

After everyone shouted and saluted, Li Shimin said with a cloudy face: "Today, I summoned all the ministers to discuss a major matter related to our Tang Dynasty. The day before yesterday, Zhang Xuansu, the left hand of the Eastern Palace, was assassinated by gangsters. I sent people to investigate. , and finally learned that the person who planned the assassination was actually the prince."

As soon as this remark came out, the entire hall was shocked, and everyone was so shocked that they could not speak. Even though Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji had expected it, they were still surprised. They didn't expect Li Hao's plan to come true. It worked.

Seeing that the ministers remained silent, Li Shimin continued: "The crown prince has deviated from morality in recent years. He has not changed after repeated teachings, and has become more and more stupid. Now he still kills his teacher. It is unacceptable, so I plan to abolish Li Chengqian as crown prince. What do you think? Just say it."
