Chapter 97 The power of regicide, the emperor asks for signatures again [(Thanks for the recommendation) Please subscribe and vote monthly]
Li Shimin wanted to ask for a signature.
but.
Seeing that Su Chen was busy, he said: "There's no rush, Heavenly Master should finish what he's doing first."
Su Chen thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
He was quite busy at the end of the day. He had not eaten yet, so he cooked a pot of rice, stir-fried vegetables, and stewed meat. Soon the rice was fragrant.
After it was served on the table, Li Shimin and the old eunuch Wuji looked at each other, and asked, "Let's eat something together?"
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Okay, I am also in a hurry and haven't had time to eat yet."
Then with the help of the old eunuch, he brought a pair of bowls and chopsticks.
Looking at the dishes, the old eunuch wanted to try them, but Li Shimin pushed him away and almost drew his sword and chopped him down.
"Presumptuous!" Li Shimin said angrily.
The old eunuch was so shocked that he knelt on the ground and shouted, "Damn it."
Su Chen said: "It doesn't have to be like this. He is probably afraid that the poor Taoist will add medicine to the dishes. After all, His Majesty is a man of wealth and cannot tolerate any mistakes."
Li Shimin was still angry and kicked the old eunuch out.
He said angrily: "If Master Tianshi wants to kill me, even if I have thousands of troops and thousands of horses, I will die ten thousand times in the palace."
"You blind old man, get out of here."
The old eunuch crawled out and closed the door.
Su Chen was stunned.
He always felt that there was something in Li Shimin's words.
His expression became strange, was Li Shimin trying to show that he was a kind emperor, or was he trying to tease him about his ability to kill the king?!
If you look carefully, you can't see anything. It seems that he is so sincere.
Li Shimin picked up the bowl, apologized, and ate happily, "I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time. I'm almost tired of eating all the food in the palace."
Su Chen remained calm. He knew that his cooking skills were barely edible and had nothing to do with delicious food.
Li Shimin seemed to have really tasted the delicious food. He couldn't stop using his chopsticks. He quickly finished three bowls of rice and ate a large bowl of meat.
When he put down his chopsticks, he served himself another bowl of soup.
Take a sip and take a breath.
"It tastes so good. This kind of self-sufficient life where you can work from sunrise to sunset is really enviable. Ever since our dynasty competed for hegemony, we have hardly lived such a life."
"Master Tianshi, sometimes I really envy your kind of life, why don't you and I change our identities and play for a few days?!"
Su Chen stopped using his chopsticks. If he couldn't hear Li Shimin's repeated attempts at this moment, he was just pretending to be stupid.
He looked calm and said: "Your Majesty, don't be joking. A country cannot live without a king for a day. If you enjoy peace here, the world will be in chaos."
He smiled again and said: "The Tang Dynasty can live without poor Taoists. The people can at most find another mountain. There will always be someone to give them spiritual sustenance. However, the Tang Dynasty cannot live without His Majesty. If so, everything will be in chaos!"
When Li Shimin heard this, he was very pleased.
Then he added: "I'm just joking, Heavenly Master doesn't have to be so serious, haha. If I'm really tired of it, I'll just return the throne to my father and let him work hard in his old age, and I'll have some free time."
Su Chen was even more speechless.
Is this guy addicted to temptation?!
The Emperor is really very suspicious!
He put down his chopsticks with a snap and said seriously: "Your Majesty, you don't need to test me. I have no interest in imperial power, wealth or honor."
Su Chen originally wanted to give in, but Li Shimin was too suspicious and tried again and again, which annoyed him.
If you don't know, keep testing until daybreak.
He made it clear that he was not afraid that Li Shimin would dare to send troops to surround him. As Li Shimin said, Su Chen could kill him even if he was in the palace.
Of course.
Although the Tang Dynasty was not fully protected, there were still some powerful and capable people. At the very least, Su Chen could not kill Li Shimin, but he could easily escape the siege.
What he is afraid of are those gods and monsters. In today's world, there is probably no mortal who can be his opponent.
Therefore, he is not afraid of Li Shimin.
But there will be no conflict with Li Shimin, because he needs to resolve the disaster, which is part of the source of his strength.
The old eunuch outside the door also heard the sound of clapping chopsticks, and his body trembled, but he finally resisted the urge to rush into the room.
Li Shimin quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Master Tian, don't be angry. I'm not testing you. I'm just old and feeling a little emotional."
"Since the Heavenly Master doesn't like it, I won't say anything."
After becoming the emperor, no one dared to slap the table in front of his face. Even Li Yuan did not dare to go so far.
but.
Li Shimin was not angry about Su Chen's attitude, but was very satisfied.
If Su Chen is such an awesome, immortal person in the world and still tries to be polite to him over and over again, Li Shimin can really only post hero posts widely to get rid of Su Chen.
Being angry proves your true character.
If Su Chen said he didn't like it, then he really didn't like it.
Li Shimin secretly thought it was a dangerous situation, "Fortunately, the Heavenly Master doesn't like imperial power and wealth, so I can sleep peacefully in the future."
At the same time, he also had some resentment in his heart, "Oh, the Celestial Master has either split the mountain or cut off the water flow these days, and occasionally shines brightly. People from outside know that there is a Celestial Master in Yunyuan Mountain, but they don't know that there is an emperor in Chang'an City. I am helpless!"
Although Li Shimin felt resentment in his heart, he did not dare to show it.
Seeing Su Chen's statement, he was afraid of going too far, so he quickly changed the subject. However, during the chat, Li Shimin realized that Su Chen couldn't say much, so he knew that tonight's test was a bit off-putting after all.
After finishing his meal, he hurriedly said: "Master Tian, I am not here this time just to have a meal, but mainly to ask for a fortune."
Su Chen nodded.
Li Shimin added: "The Heavenly Master should know that not long ago, Li Jing and Qin Qiong led troops to destroy the Turks, which calmed down my great trouble in the north, so that I can finally avenge my shame and sleep peacefully."
"Not long ago, I was sent a letter by various tribes asking me to be the Khan of the day. I reluctantly agreed and agreed."
Su Chen listened to him boasting and just nodded.
Li Shimin said: "However, after returning from the great victory, something happened that made me feel uncomfortable."
Su Chen's heart moved, and he had some vague guesses.
However, he did not speak.
Li Shimin thought to himself: "When Li Jing, the general manager of Dingxiang Road, returned to the court after a great victory, his deputy general manager Zhang Baoxiang lied about the military situation and privately recruited and deployed troops. This move really chills me."
Su Chen understood in his heart that it was just as he guessed.
Then he said: "It was the deputy general manager Zhang Baoxiang who said that he was attacked by 50,000 barbarian men. In the end, Li Jing sent troops, but found that there were only 5,000 troops?!"
hiss!
Li Shimin took a breath and was extremely shocked.
"That's right, how did Master Tianshi know about it?!"
This matter was extremely secretive among the Dingxiang Dao Flying Tiger Army. Even he had to risk his own life as a secret agent to spread the news.
It was long after the battle ended and Jieli Khan became the King of Anle and rewarded him based on his merits that he found out about it.
After getting the news these two days, he couldn't sleep all night.
It is certain that apart from him, even the old eunuch Wuji did not know that Su Chen actually spoke out.
So scary.
Su Chen shook his head and did not answer.
His attitude made Li Shimin feel normal, and as a banished immortal, it seemed natural for Su Chen to know these things.
Li Shimin quickly said: "After I found out about this, I was really scared. Zhang Baoxiang lied to me, Li Jing also lied to me, how many more people lied to me?!"
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, "Is it possible that everyone in the world is lying to me? What if one day they trap me and kill me?!"
Su Chen remained silent, and Li Shimin continued: "Zhang Baoxiang is from the Zhang family in Huainan, an ancient and powerful family, and the Huainan area is unique. Li Jing is from the Li family in Yongzhou, which is also an old family, so Li Jing is considered the most noble. They want to take revenge.
Am I taking action against the aristocratic family?!"
Su Chen felt that if he didn't say a few words, Li Shimin would probably suspect that everyone in the world would target him.
"Your Majesty, maybe Zhang Baoxiang lied about the military situation just to gain more military exploits."
"He has already captured Jieli Khan and brought back the former Sui Empress and the prince. His achievements are so great that I have made him a county prince. What's the use of even a few military exploits?!"
Su Chen was speechless.
Who would think that military merit is lacking?!
but.
Zhang Baoxiang's move was indeed a bit confusing, and he didn't want to say anything more.
He then said: "So what exactly do you want to ask your Majesty? Are you asking them if they are loyal?!"
Li Shimin shook his head directly and said: "The human heart is the most unpredictable, and it can also change. The Heavenly Master calculated it at this time, but after a while, it may not be correct."
Su Chen had nothing to say.
Li Shimin continued: "Zhang Baoxiang deceived me, and Li Jing protected him and deceived me. Therefore, I want to kill them to avoid future troubles. However, I don't know whether this move will be beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, so I want to ask the Tianshi
!”
Su Chen was silent for a moment.
He secretly thought, "Sure enough, even Li Shimin, who is said to be the most kind to his heroes, must be an emperor full of suspicions. In history, these heroes were able to survive only because of various factors."
This fairy tale of the Tang Dynasty may not necessarily end well as it did in history.
Su Chen took out the bamboo tube and handed it over, "Your Majesty, let's draw lots."
Li Shimin took the bamboo tube and walked out to the Sanqing Hall. He knelt down and kowtowed obediently, but in addition to piety, there was also murderous intent in his eyes.
There are words in the mouth.
"I want to kill Li Jing, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Zhang Baoxiang, the deputy general manager of Dingxiang Road. I don't know if my ancestors agree. I ask for instructions."
Swish, swish, swish!
Snap!
A bamboo stick fell.
Li Shimin picked it up and looked at it, his face suddenly twitched, the killing intent in his eyes became even stronger, and deep in his eyes was full of unwillingness.
"The sign was signed, it was actually signed."
Li Shimin almost broke his signature, which showed how angry he was.
"If I kill Li Jing and Zhang Baoxiang, can I still turn the Tang Dynasty upside down?!"
Li Shimin was extremely angry and gnashed his teeth.
Su Chen comforted him and said, "Your Majesty, please let me take a look."
Li Shimin handed the bamboo stick over, and Su Chen took it and took a look, and scenes appeared in front of his eyes.
