The palace is the palace of Concubine Yin. Li Shimin does not have to go to the morning court today. Concubine Yin just said that the peach blossoms in the garden are blooming, which is really beautiful. Your Majesty, please come and take a look.
Li Shimin also wanted to relax and unwind, so he came to Concubine Yin's palace early in the morning to enjoy the flowers.
Before he could say a few words to Concubine Yin, Eunuch Huang ran over in a hurry and stood not far away waiting. Seeing this, Li Shimin frowned slightly. He knew Eunuch Huang. Normally, at this time, nothing serious would happen to him. He wouldn't and wouldn't dare to disturb him. If he could make him come running in a hurry, he would be afraid that something would happen!
Did the Turks launch an army? This is the time for the Turks to launch their troops!
After saying hello to Concubine Yin, Li Shimin walked slowly to Eunuch Huang and said calmly: "Tell me, what happened?"
Eunuch Huang took a deep breath and reported: "Your Majesty, Li Junxian asked for an interview, saying it was about Luo Zhang!"
"Huh? About Luo Zhang? What did that kid do again? He bothered me even after work! It's really disturbing!" Li Shimin said nonchalantly, not thinking that anything could happen to Luo Zhang. After all, now Nowadays, Luo Zhang is at the peak of his power. Who would touch him at this time? That is not giving yourself face!
"Um... Your Majesty, Yuan Zhe, the legitimate son of the Yuan family, died in Chunxiang Tower. Luo Zhang's sword was found there, which was the murder weapon. Some people testified that Luo Zhang had been there. Mr. Li came here for This matter!" Eunuch Huang reported carefully.
"What! What did you say? Luo Zhang killed someone? Killed Yuan Zhe? Impossible!" Li Shimin's expression changed.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Mr. Li said there is still something fishy about this matter. Why don't you meet Mr. Li first?" Eunuch Huang said cautiously.
"Xuan Li Junxian, go to the imperial study and wait for me!" Li Shimin turned around and left without even saying hello to Concubine Yin, which made Concubine Yin stomp her feet. But now that she has married into the royal family, what can she do? If something goes wrong, His Majesty will naturally have to deal with it, so there is no time to enjoy the flowers.
When Li Shimin arrived at the imperial study, Li Junxian was already waiting there.
Li Shimin went straight into the imperial study without saying anything. Li Junxian glanced at Eunuch Huang. Eunuch Huang shook his head, indicating that His Majesty was in a bad mood. Li Junxian understood clearly, and then he straightened his clothes and entered the imperial study.
In the room, the palace maid was making tea for Li Shimin. The brewing method was exactly the same as Luo Zhang's, and even more pleasing to the eye than Luo Zhang's.
Li Shimin, on the other hand, was sitting on the grand master's chair given to him by Luo Zhang, with a sullen face and said nothing.
Seeing this, Li Junxian had no choice but to step forward and say: "My lord, Li Junxian, come to see your Majesty!"
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me, what's going on?" Li Shimin took a sip of Dahongpao and composed himself.
"Your Majesty, I received a report from the Chang'an County Yamen early this morning that a person in Chunxiang Tower within its jurisdiction was assassinated to death. After investigation, it was found that the deceased was Yuan Zhe, the legitimate son of the Yuan family. A murder weapon was found at the scene, and two witnesses were found. The evidence points to Lantian County Zi Luozhang, Luo Zhang should have already inquired about matters at the Chang'an County Yamen!" Li Junxian reported truthfully.
"Evidence? What evidence?" Li Shimin asked concisely and concisely, which meant whether he could be sure that Luo Zhang did it!
Of course Li Junxian understood what Li Shimin meant and hurriedly bowed and said: "That sword is the military attache's sword worn by Luo Zhang. According to witnesses, when he saw Luo Zhang rushing into Chunxiang Tower, he killed Yuan with one sword. Zhe was killed, and then he threw away his sword Taozhi Yaoyao."
"Do you believe it?" Li Shimin snorted softly.
"Your Majesty, I naturally don't believe it, but now we have to find evidence to prove that Luo Zhang is not guilty. Now there is an uproar in the whole Chang'an City. There are all kinds of rumors. It is even said that Luo Zhang and Yuan Zhe were involved in a dispute. There was a fight to snatch a woman, and Luo Zhang killed Yuan Zhe!" Li Junxian said with a wry smile.
"Then you go and investigate for me. If you can get to the bottom of it, if you can't find out who did it, you, the commander of the Secret Service, can go home and farm!" Li Shimin said with fire in his eyes.
Li Junxian sighed in his heart. He knew it would be like this, but what could he do? Luo Zhang was the most favored person by His Majesty. Seeing that Luo Zhang was spending time in the Dockyard Department studying shipbuilding every day, how could Luo Zhang be allowed to do so? Something happened to Zhang? This kind of thing is beyond the control of Chang'an County Government. It is obvious that someone framed Luo Zhang. As for who it is, it is not just the few people who sent people to assassinate Luo Zhang. Those people are not easy to mess with. Ah, I'm afraid the evidence has been cleared away long ago, leaving him with very little. It's really a headache!
Before Li Junxian could leave, Eunuch Huang walked into the imperial study room again and reported: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shangshu, Luo Zhang, Prince Hejian and others are asking to see Your Majesty!"
"Huh? They came together? That's fine. It's better to tell them clearly in person than to be suspicious of each other. Let them come in!" Li Shimin waved his hand.
Li Junxian stood aside, waiting for the arrival of the protagonist Luo Zhang.
Under the guidance of Eunuch Huang, Luo Zhang, Yuan Long, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yaojin walked in. Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh. It was obvious that Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and others were here to help, for fear that Luo Zhang suffered a loss at the hands of Yuan Long, but will that kid Luo Zhang suffer a loss? It's good that he wasn't tricked by Luo Zhang. Li Shimin had never seen Luo Zhang suffer a loss.
When everyone stood still, Li Shimin finally said, "Tell us what's going on!"
Everyone looked at each other, and Yuan Long stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask if your Majesty will give Luo Zhang a favor?"
Li Shimin didn't expect Yuan Long to ask this question, and was a little suspicious in his heart, but he still nodded and said: "Yes, when I first met Luo Zhang, I was grateful for the Luo family's contribution to the Tang Dynasty, so I did give him a favor. , what’s wrong, there’s something wrong with that token?”
"No, since His Majesty gave Luo Zhangen the order, he doesn't need to be detained in prison!" Yuan Long nodded and said in his heart that fortunately the token was real, otherwise Luo Zhang would have looked good today.
"Detention? Why detention?" Li Shimin pretended not to know.
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me..." Then Yuanlong told the whole story and the evidence that Chang'an County Government had. Everything pointed to Luo Zhang, who was originally going to detain Luo Zhang. Awaiting interrogation, but now that he has received the order, Luo Zhang's detention in prison has been changed to waiting at home and listening to the news at any time.
"I know about this matter. I also ordered Li Junxian to investigate the matter. As the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, you also have your own judgment. You should know the strangeness of this matter. Are you staring at Luo Zhang just because you want to see behind the scenes? Who is that person? You, you, what are you doing playing with these tricks? Do you really think those people will jump out if you act like this? This matter is not that simple. I advise you to go home and wait for Li Jun Let's talk about the result of Xian!" Li Shimin said patiently, this is Luo Zhang, anyone else Li Shimin would not say so much!
With Li Shimin as a guarantee, and he also knew that there was a hidden secret in this matter, judging from the dead servant in Luo Zhang's family, this incident was premeditated. The servant obviously killed people and silenced them, so he nodded slightly. Nodding was regarded as agreement to Li Shimin's decision.
Luo Zhang didn't say anything about this, but there was a fire in his heart. This was the first time that he had been wronged and cheated like this. He couldn't swallow it unless he regained his position!
Everyone came and left with cheers and cheers, and only Li Shimin was left in the imperial study room.
Seeing everyone leaving, Li Shimin's face suddenly darkened, and the tea cup in his hand was smashed to the ground. The frightened palace maid turned pale and knelt on the ground trembling, thinking that the tea she made was not good, causing His Majesty's wrath.
Fortunately, Eunuch Huang walked in in time, glanced at the ground, understood in his heart, and waved to the palace maid to leave.
And he took two steps forward to comfort him: "Your Majesty, calm down, the dragon body is important!"
"Everything makes people worry. Assassination, or assassination, does he really think that I don't know that he did it? If it weren't for love, I could pull him out and kill him based on this!" Li Shimin was furious! road.
"Your Majesty, let's leave this matter to Li Junxian, so you don't have to worry about it!" Eunuch Huang naturally knew who His Majesty was talking about, so he didn't want to say anything, so he could only console him.
In the eyes of Eunuch Huang, no big thing is as important as His Majesty's body. If His Majesty has anything, then the sky will fall for him.
