The court meeting ended quickly. Luo Zhang was sober at the last moment of the court meeting. As for what was discussed earlier, he had no idea. At that time, he had already gone to see Duke Zhou. If Dou Jing's matter hadn't caused His Majesty's anger, He got angry and woke up Luo Zhang, fearing that he would not wake up until the morning meeting was over.
Under the leadership of Eunuch Huang, Luo Zhang came to the door of the Royal Study. His old acquaintance, Changsun Wuji, was still standing there. I don't know what His Majesty thought, why he wanted this old guy to be present. If the Dou family told the truth, Isn’t Changsun Wuji afraid? Or does it mean that this matter has nothing to do with him and he is not afraid?
This is not right. If it had nothing to do with it, why did he do that in the main hall? Do you really want to help yourself?
Luo Zhang would rather believe that a dog eats shit than Changsun Wuji would help him!
How could I help him if I had the intention to kill him?
With doubts and confusion, Luo Zhang quietly stayed at the door and waited with Changsun Wuji. The two of them were clearly separated, standing in one direction and one in the west.
About a quarter of an hour later, Eunuch Huang came to the two of them and invited him and Changsun Wuji to come in.
Arriving at the imperial study room, Li Shimin had changed into regular clothes and was sitting on the dragon chair, drinking the Dahongpao presented by Luo Zhang. It is said that Li Shimin drank the Dahongpao more and more, and now he can't even drink it once or twice a day. Comfortable.
Perhaps it was the effect of Luo Zhang's words. Luo Zhang once told Li Shimin that drinking this tea can prolong life. For emperors, these four words of prolonging life are more important than anything else. In addition, Li Shimin also After seeing Qin Qiong's body getting better day by day and almost returning to his original appearance, he became even more convinced of what Luo Zhang said. No, Luo Zhang would send a batch to Li Shimin every seven days. It also includes Maotai liquor.
As a gift to Li Shimin, Luo Zhang didn't complain at all. Instead of giving food and drink to those old guys like Cheng Yaojin, he would rather give it to Li Shimin. He could get more from Li Shimin. These are the thickest legs in the Tang Dynasty. No one else has better legs. He's still thick.
Seeing Luo Zhang and Changsun Wuji come in, Li Shimin put down the tea cup, wiped his mouth, and then said: "Luo Zhang, is there any problem with your verification method here?"
Although he was speaking to Luo Zhang, Li Shimin's eyes were fixed on Changsun Wuji. Changsun Wuji had blocked him once in the main hall. If he still blocked it in the imperial study room, it would not make sense. Li Shimin I wanted to see how Changsun Wuji would react.
Even Li Shimin couldn't see through Changsun Wuji's city. Changsun Wuji stood quietly with no expression on his face, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Seeing this, Li Shimin's eyes fell on Luo Zhang again.
Luo Zhangjian asked him, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there is no problem in verifying my method anywhere, but I have to choose the candidates."
"That's no problem. You can choose any of the Dou family members, as long as you can get them to talk!" Li Shimin waved his hand and agreed.
Luo Zhang thought for a while and spoke again: "Then your Majesty, please bring Dou Huaian here, I want him!"
Compared with the old guys in the Dou family, Luo Zhang felt that Dou Huaian was easier to deal with. In addition, he was still young, so he probably didn't want to die. As long as he used a little trick, Dou Huaian would definitely tell everything. As a member of the Dou family, It is impossible for Dou Huaian, the heir to the family head, not to know something, so Luo Zhang was sure that Dou Huaian would definitely tell the truth.
Hearing that Luo Zhang was going to bring Dou Huaian up, Changsun Wuji's expression finally changed. It seemed that he also felt that Dou Huaian was a destabilizing factor for the Dou family. However, Changsun Wuji did not say anything, which made Luo Zhang became more and more curious, wondering what kind of medicine Changsun Wuji was selling.
Dou Huaian was quickly escorted up by two Jinwu guards. When he saw Luo Zhang in front of him, Dou Huaian struggled to rush towards Luo Zhang. His blood-red eyes looked like a bloodthirsty beast.
"Luo Zhang, you despicable villain, you don't deserve a good death, I'm going to kill you! Kill you!" Dou Huaian struggled and roared.
Luo Zhang walked slowly to Dou Huai'an, raised his hand and slapped him across the face.
"This is the Imperial Study Room. I advise you to be quiet. If you disturb His Majesty, I will chop you down as soon as possible. Do you believe it or not?" Luo Zhang said contemptuously to Dou Huaian.
Being reminded by Luo Zhang, Dou Huaian realized that he was in the Imperial Study Room, and the person sitting behind the desk in front of him was none other than His Majesty Li Shimin. His eyes turned, and he actually saw Changsun Wuji here. I just remembered what Luo Zhang said in the main hall.
Could it be that I was the person Luo Zhang chose?
Thinking of this possibility, Dou Huai'an no longer had the ferocious look on his face, but his face was filled with fear. He was scared, really scared. Somehow, the news about Luo Zhang's interrogation of the prisoner came out from the Secret Service. It is said that Luo Zhang is a demon from hell. Almost no prisoner can escape his interrogation. As long as the prisoner he interrogates will eventually confess what he has done.
So when he thought that Luo Zhang actually wanted to interrogate him here, Dou Huaian trembled all over, his lips trembled, and his face turned pale. If he really told Luo Zhang what happened, then he would be He is the eternal sinner of the Dou family, and he will be responsible for the destruction of the Dou family.
How could you choose yourself? Why not choose someone else? Dou Huaian cursed his mother in his heart, but this matter was not something he could decide.
In the imperial study room, after Dou Huaian was brought up, everyone's eyes were fixed on Luo Zhang, wanting to see if there was any way he could make people tell the truth. Everyone was very curious.
Luo Zhang chuckled and said to the two guards: "Catch him, don't let him break free."
The two Jinwu guards nodded to express their understanding, and the strength in their hands became much stronger. Dou Huaian broke into cold sweat when pinching him. However, he did not care about this, but about Luo Zhang. He didn't know how he would treat him. The unknown was horrifying.
Seeing that Jin Wuwei was holding Dou Huaian down, Luo Zhang didn't say much nonsense. Instead, he took a gourd from his waist, opened Dou Huaian's mouth and poured it into it.
When Dou Huaian saw Luo Zhang offering him something to drink, he was naturally unwilling and struggled desperately, but how could he get away with it?
He wanted to spit out what he poured into his mouth, but was punched in the chest by Luo Zhang. He drank the thing that was poured into his mouth and a spicy breath spurted out from his mouth. Dou Huaian's whole body was shocked. Everyone is not feeling well, and I feel a little dizzy, like the world is spinning.
But Luo Zhang didn't stop there. He pulled off another gourd from his waist, opened Dou Huai'an's mouth and poured it in. After the first time, it was much easier the second time. It was not like the first time when the water couldn't flow out. Young Master, this time I poured it all into Dou Huai'an's belly.
"Cough cough cough..." Two gourds were poured into Dou Huaian's stomach. Dou Huaian coughed violently. At this time, his eyes were a little confused and he kept shaking his head, trying to wake himself up. But his brain seemed to be disobedient, and his thinking was somewhat stagnant.
Luo Zhang did not pour anything into Dou Huaian's mouth, but stood aside and waited quietly.
Everyone in the imperial study room was staring at Dou Huaian, wanting to see if Dou Huaian was really as Luo Zhang said, as long as he took action, he would tell the truth. They didn't know what Luo Zhang gave Dou Huaian to drink. At this time, Dou Huaian's appearance seemed to have changed a lot.
Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair and kept sniffing, as if he smelled something. He glanced at Luo Zhang with a smile on his lips. At this time, he had already guessed what Luo Zhang was drinking for Dou Huaian. He secretly gave Luo Zhang a thumbs up. This method is really simple and effective, and it doesn't hurt anyone. Not bad, not bad.
Li Shimin didn't know that what Luo Zhang gave Dou Huai'an was not the wine they drank, but the alcohol purified by Luo Zhang. This thing was worn by Luo Zhang for self-defense, just in case he was injured or one of his men was injured. Any injury will have a greater chance of survival if it is disinfected with alcohol. This is also Luo Zhang's preparation for the Northern Expedition. Unexpectedly, this thing was not used in the north, but was used on Dou Huaian. You know, the two gourds just now totaled two Two pieces of alcohol, but he used up a bottle of Erguotou, which was only five thousand points and five thousand taels of silver.
In order to get Dou Huai'an to speak, Luo Zhang had spent a lot of money. If he had done other things, he would not have spent five thousand taels of silver.
