After handing over everything to Jinwu Guards and handing over the captured people to Li Junxian, Luo Zhang led the Eighteen Cavalrymen, Wu Shaobin and Su Dingfang towards the palace.
Since His Majesty invited him to go, he must be very anxious. How could he make His Majesty wait?
When Luo Zhang went to the palace and outside the imperial city, he was taken all the way to the door of the imperial study without even asking.
Eunuch Huang seemed to be waiting for him at the door. When he saw Luo Zhang arriving, he circled around Luo Zhang. Seeing that Luo Zhang was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay if it's okay, it's okay if it's okay. I really I'm worried that something will happen to you, and hearing Li Junxian's report scared me to death!"
Feeling Eunuch Huang's true feelings, Luo Zhang was also moved. He grabbed Eunuch Huang's arm and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is only one person in this world who can take my life from Luo Zhang. Others want me." Life, that’s a dream!”
The person Luo Zhang was talking about was naturally the master of this palace and the entire Tang Dynasty. He could not only kill Luo Zhang, but also kill others if they disobeyed him.
As for the others, Luo Zhang didn't pay attention at all. Even Changsun Wuji was just a very strong opponent.
As his cultivation became more and more advanced, Luo Zhang's self-confidence became more and more confident, and he no longer had to look forward and backward in everything he did before.
After all, if you have strength, you have the right to speak. Now he has not only reached the True Yuan realm in cultivation, but also has an army of ten thousand people under his command. Although many of them are new recruits, they should not be underestimated. You must know A full Youwu Guard only has 50,000 men. Luo Zhang's men and horses are equivalent to one-fifth of Youwu Guards. Who can despise him?
What's more, Luo Zhang has formed alliances with many big families, led by the Xiao family, the first family in Jiangnan. The prince and his majesty also support him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is walking sideways in Chang'an!
Hearing Luo Zhang's words, Eunuch Huang just smiled. In his opinion, the stronger Luo Zhang is, the better. He does not want Luo Zhang to be in danger. Luo Zhang is a junior he is very optimistic about.
"Okay, don't say any more, go in quickly, His Majesty is still waiting for you inside!"
Luo Zhang nodded and said: "I will go to see His Majesty first, and then I will chat with Eunuch Huang after I meet His Majesty!"
After straightening his clothes, Luo Zhang stepped into the imperial study. Li Shimin was not reviewing the memorials at this time, but was eating pastries and drinking tea. It was like working overtime today, and there were not many memorials, so Li Shimin doesn't have to work so hard. After all, he is also a human being and needs to balance work and rest.
Seeing Luo Zhang come in, Li Shimin put down the tea cup and looked Luo Zhang up and down like Eunuch Huang, wanting to see if Luo Zhang was injured.
After all, Luo Zhang was his son-in-law, no, he was the husband-in-law of his two daughters. How could the matter between Luo Zhang and Chang Le be hidden from Li Shimin? It was just that he turned a blind eye. Zhongliu, he couldn't stop him even if he tried to stop him. Besides, Luo Zhang was so good that he was willing to marry all the other daughters in the palace to Luo Zhang, not to mention marrying his two daughters. Of course, this was just a thought. I thought, if that were the case, Li Shimin would be afraid of killing Luo Zhang with a sword.
Both of his daughters are dissatisfied and want more of his daughters. Why not kill them?
After being looked at once by Eunuch Huang and once again by His Majesty, Luo Zhang was no longer surprised and stood there openly waiting for His Majesty.
After seeing that Luo Zhang was fine, Li Shimin continued to pick up the teacup and drink tea without speaking.
Seeing this, Luo Zhang hurriedly bowed and said: "See Your Majesty, I'm worried about you!"
"Hmph! You kid, you still know that I will be worried? I'm not worried about you, I'm worried about my daughter. If you have any shortcomings, my daughter will be a widow at a young age!" Li Shimin snorted.
"Your Majesty, it's not my fault. You also know what I am transporting. Those people are so ambitious that they not only want to kill me, but also want to get their hands on that thing. They are really desperate!" Luo Zhang cried out.
"Fortunately, the boy was clever and tricked them to death, otherwise I might not be able to see His Majesty today!" Luo Zhang cried and said!
"It's okay. Even if something happens to you, I will avenge you!" Li Shimin said with the corners of his mouth raised.
Luo Zhang, who was holding back his words, almost spat out a mouthful of blood. What do you mean, if something happens to me, you will take revenge on me? There are no good things to say.
"Tell me, what's going on? What you said in the letter to Li Junxian is the truth?" Li Shimin didn't dwell on Luo Zhang's matter and asked, changing the subject.
"Your Majesty, what I said in the letter to Commander Li is true. This time the people from other countries united to attack me was a premeditated and organized action. They not only wanted to kill me, but also wanted to kill me. Stealing the things I was transporting, according to them, as long as I was killed, the soldiers I brought would definitely be in chaos and would be leaderless. They could easily break through and then steal the things I was transporting and leave. "
"It's just..." Luo Zhang said and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Just what?" Li Shimin asked.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty, please forgive me!" Luo Zhang said and knelt down.
"Hurry up and speak. What have you done that you want my forgiveness for?" Li Shimin asked impatiently.
"Your Majesty, I asked my men to hide more than a dozen of the things that were escorted from Yushan. I wanted to use them for self-defense. I thought, there are so many anyway, so it is harmless to get some myself. This is what I did wrong. Please forgive me!" Luo Zhang lay down in the tunnel.
This matter must be explained clearly, otherwise how could Luo Zhang explain that he killed and injured more than 20 True Yuan Realm powerhouses with just a few people?
This is also to avoid Li Shimin's suspicion. Even though His Majesty seems to care and love you very much, who knows what he is thinking in his heart. The most unpredictable thing since ancient times is the emperor's heart. Once he becomes suspicious of you, , then your good days are coming to an end, and you may be kicked out at some point. For the sake of his imperial hegemony, he will not care about the fact that you are his son-in-law. At worst, after you die, he will give up his daughter. Just marry again.
"So that's what happened. It seems that the reason why you were able to escape this disaster and kill so many True Yuan realm masters was because of that thing?" Li Shimin said with a playful smile.
"Your Majesty, it's true. If it weren't for those things, I might have been doomed in my situation at that time. You know, I only had eighteen Qi Sensing Realm guards around me at that time, as well as Wu Shaobin and Su Dingfang. Although Wu Shaobin and Su Dingfang were in the True Yuan Realm. , but we are no match for those people. I am afraid that we will be captured alive by the enemy if we meet each other. Fortunately, the things hidden by my men worked and blasted the flesh and blood of those strong ones in the True Yuan Realm before they escaped. Survive this calamity!" Luo Zhang recounted.
"Well, it's really clever to say that. I won't care about it, but from now on, this thing is not allowed to be hidden privately. Do you understand?" Li Shimin warned.
Sure enough, Luo Zhang thought in his mind, although he was the one who figured out the gunpowder, this thing was so powerful that it could subvert the Tang Dynasty. How could Li Shimin trust others to keep this thing privately, not even Luo Zhang? Fortunately, Luo Zhang To be honest, I don’t know what Li Shimin would think if this was found out.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I know!" Luo Zhang said respectfully.
Seeing that Luo Zhang was very respectful, Li Shimin nodded slightly. He admired Luo Zhang's knowledge of advancement and retreat. There were very few ministers who could share his worries and know how to measure. The reason why he beat Luo Zhang just now was because he didn't want Luo Zhang to be too upset. After all, Luo Zhang is still young. If he indulges himself, he may cause trouble. Of course, Luo Zhang did a good job and he is very satisfied!
"Your Majesty, I told Commander Li before that this sneak attack is very strange. Those people from foreign countries seem to have known my movements yesterday and what I was escorting. Could there be something wrong with me..." Luo Zhang didn't continue, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
"You don't need to worry about this matter. I will arrange it. You have been tired for a day. Go back and rest early. Soon, you will go out with the army. Please stay at home and spend more time with Gao Yang!" Li Shimin ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I know!" Luo Zhang bowed and stepped back.
After walking out of the imperial study, Eunuch Huang was still standing at the door, obviously waiting for Luo Zhang. Seeing Luo Zhang come out, Eunuch Huang smiled at him.
The two of them were walking and chatting, talking about interesting things that happened during this period, like a pair of old friends for many years!
