C68

Within the imperial city, it had been almost a month since the fall of Crown Prince Li Chengqian's rebellion. The chaotic situation in the city had returned to its usual bustling atmosphere, and everything had settled down once again. Looking at the great rivers and mountains that he had single-handedly brought down, Emperor Taizong, who was sitting on the dragon throne, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The rebellion of Crown Prince Li Chengqian had made him haggard, making him old, although this was a fact he was unwilling to admit. His old body felt worse, not only in his heart, but also in his spirit. He didn't know why, but he had been thinking about the Queen Changshun who had passed away many years ago. He thought to himself, "Maybe my death will come and I won't be able to turn back the sky!"

However, in his heart, there was always a surge of anger that was difficult to describe and unfathomable. He felt himself to be in a vexed mood, unable to think of food and food, and even the most usually attentive reading memorials were now in the form of simple "yes" or "no" to pass on. The rest was left to the officials of the six departments of the three provinces to handle.

He thought hard and thought for a long time. Finally on this day, when he ordered the rebellion's crown prince, Li Chengquan, to be demoted to a concubine and sent to Nanling, the day when Third Prince Li Kui, who had helped him fight the rebellion, was sent to Chongzhou to be reconciled with the Turkic princess, he became agitated once again.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace all knew that the emperor wasn't someone to be trifled with, so they kept their distance. When the strong ones standing by the emperor's side saw his appearance, they immediately stepped forward and asked, "Your majesty, are you thinking of Empress Zhangsun again?" Emperor Taizong, who was still deep in thought, was jolted awake by these words. His gaze was like a knife that sliced across that mighty soldier's face, but he did not say anything. That mighty warrior was frightened by Emperor Taizong's glare until his neck shrunk, and did not dare to say more.

Emperor Taizong knew that his emotions had been unstable for the past few days and that these eunuchs and maids had suffered quite a bit because of him, so he immediately said, "A few days ago, where was that warrior that I met in the corridor on the day I went to the Pavilion of Ascending Mist? Get him here for me! " The man standing next to Emperor Taizong did not know why Emperor Taizong suddenly asked this question, so he asked, "Is the man Your Majesty was talking about the day the Emperor was assassinated?" Emperor Taizong saw that he still had an impression of him, so he nodded. "He died a long time ago!"

"Dead?" When Emperor Taizong heard this, he creased his brow and hurriedly asked, "How did he die?" He was slightly startled, but he still truthfully replied, "I'm not too sure either. The person was killed by Third Prince Li Kui, and he said that it was that person who colluded with the culprit to murder His Majesty."

When Emperor Taizong heard this, he angrily shouted, "What a fool! What about Lee? Call him in! " In his rage, Emperor Taizong immediately wanted to call Li Kui to inquire about this matter. Unexpectedly, that powerful warrior said, "Has Your Majesty forgotten? Yesterday morning, His Majesty moved the imperial edict and bestowed the marriage to the Third Prince. Last night, he left for Chongzhou! "

"Oh!" This Emperor has forgotten! " Emperor Taizong slightly closed his eyes, his right hand supporting his forehead as he gently kneaded. Seeing the emperor in such a state, the man thought he must be tired. He immediately said, "Your majesty, if you're tired, why don't you go to the side chamber and rest for a while. I'll wake you up when the afternoon imperial reports are delivered!"

Emperor Taizong knew that he was doing this out of good intentions, but he still shook his head and said, "There's no need. This Emperor doesn't want to get up the moment he lies down. His entire body is filled with the nest of lazy bugs!" Hearing the emperor's joke, the warrior knew that the current emperor was still rational. He immediately took a step forward and said in a low voice, "Your majesty, if you feel that you miss Empress Zhangsun very much, why don't you serve me in the palace?" When Emperor Taizong heard these words, he could not help but feel a burst of irritation. His hand that had just swung out paused slightly at this moment, then retracted it. He did not say anything, so it could be considered as tacit approval!

Seeing that the emperor had tacitly allowed him to stay, the mighty warrior immediately left the palace to make arrangements, fearing that he would miss out on the emperor's plans in a short period of time. However, after he left, Emperor Taizong, who had been sitting on the dragon throne, let out a long sigh. With a hoarse voice, he softly said, "How could you all know that I was thinking of Empress Zhangsun, not a woman!"

With a bitter smile, Emperor Taizong forced himself to pull himself together and buried his head back in his report when he saw a few reports that had yet to be reviewed on the table.

He saw that Emperor Taizong had just finished his dinner, so he sat at the table and began to read. With a sigh, he stepped forward and softly said, "Your Majesty, I've already arranged everything. Take a look at when you are going to sleep." After Emperor Taizong heard these words, he did not immediately respond. Instead, he continued to look at the book in his hand, his left hand nonchalantly tapping on the plan.

Seeing that Emperor Taizong did not reply, the experts did not dare to get up. They simply laid on the ground and waited for the reply. Emperor Taizong naturally saw all of this, and he casually said, "Stand up first. You're already a lot of years old, it's not good for you to kneel on the ground like this!" Upon hearing Emperor Taizong's concern, the mighty warrior hurriedly stood up and slightly straightened his back, which had just begun to ache from lying down. "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My health is fine, but Your Majesty is very busy every day. You must take care of the dragon's body!" Emperor Taizong also did not say anything, only faintly smiled, and casually said, "First take that person to his chamber, I will arrive shortly!"

After receiving an answer from the Emperor, the mighty warrior acknowledged and then retreated out of the palace to make the arrangements. In the huge Hall of Knowledge, only a few candles were left, so Emperor Taizong sat upright and continued to tirelessly read the books in his hands.

When he saw Emperor Taizong still reading the book in his hands, he could not help but feel a sense of regret in his heart. He was afraid that the Emperor would not have any luck today, how could he be worthy in front of the Emperor in the future, when he had so many words to say!

While he was pondering, he heard Emperor Taizong say loudly, "What time is it now?" After being jolted out of his stupor, Brahma hurriedly replied, "It's almost time to go back to the Emperor. For the sake of his health and health, I'd like to request that he return to the palace to sleep." Although Emperor Taizong was unwilling to enter the palace, he no longer had a memorial, and since he was rather tired, he might as well return to the palace! Sigh! The pitiful and miserable Empress Sun had left too early, and she could only find someone else to replace her day and night. Thinking to this, Emperor Taizong faintly smiled, and softly said, "Then let's return to the palace! to meet the girl you chose for me! "

The new book, especially I hope for everyone's support and love, no matter what, I will persevere! Although the book was not very good, and it had a good reputation. There are many times when I don't have the motivation to move forward, but now that I do, isn't fighting for my wuxia dream a motivation? Please work hard with me, for the heart of the wuxia dream, together create glory!
