In this world, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind!
Zhang Liang of Luoyang endured tortures that ordinary people could not imagine for several days, but never revealed anything. This also bought a rare little time for Li Shimin to mobilize his ministers to rescue him.
During these days, Li Jiancheng of Chang'an endured the impeachment and refutation of countless important officials.
Even the wealthy people who were initially brought to Chang'an and prepared to testify against Li Shimin also turned against him and stated that they were forced to do so.
They had no relationship with Li Shimin at all, and their relationship with Zhang Liang was just ordinary friends. Who said they were not allowed to make friends?
In this way, Chang'an can only do the same as before, once again taking it lightly and exposing the matter.
However, although the matter was revealed, it was because too many things were exposed this time.
Li Yuan, who was deeply disturbed, once again listened to the advice of many concubines around him and gave Li Shimin a heavy blow.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were dismissed from their official positions on the grounds of destroying the harmony between brothers. They were kicked out of the palace on that day and were banned from entering the palace forever!
As soon as this order came out, Li Shimin almost fainted! This blow was really too heavy for him!
The two people who were driven away, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, were no less important to Li Shimin than his right-hand man!
This order was like a huge axe, directly cutting off his arm!
The bad news is that's not all!
A few days after the incident, Li Yuanji, who rushed back from Luoyang, suddenly held a banquet to invite Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, saying that he wanted to apologize for the misunderstanding.
Although Li Shimin had doubts at the time when he received the invitation, he thought again that this was Chang'an and they should not dare to do anything too outrageous, so he felt relieved and went to attend the appointment.
During this banquet, after Li Shimin drank a glass of wine, he realized something was wrong and immediately left with an excuse!
But even though he was so alert, he couldn't resist the overbearing poison in the wine! That night he vomited three liters of blood and almost died.
Soon, the incident of Li Shimin vomiting blood while attending a banquet spread throughout Chang'an City like a plague.
Li Yuan was furious when he got the news! Li Jiancheng was immediately summoned, and Li Yuanji entered the palace.
In the palace, although the two of them unanimously denied that they did not know, they were still whipped dozens of times by Li Yuan himself. Their bodies were covered with scars and they looked miserable.
Then, in front of the West Market, several servants of Prince Qi's Mansion appeared. The cook's head was beheaded, and his blood flowed all over the ground.
Inside the Qin Mansion.
Li Shimin, who had been awake for three days, was weakly leaning on the bed. In front of him, Changsun was holding a bowl of black soup and feeding him medicine with a spoon. The strong smell of herbs filled the whole room. .
After drinking the bowl of medicine with difficulty, Li Shimin coughed twice and then turned his attention to the two people who were also in the room.
Xiao Han sat on a stool, looking pale.
He remembered that this incident had been recorded in history, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly and so unexpectedly! Thinking about it now, it still scares him!
Just in case, just in case Li Shimin didn't realize that the cup he drank was poisonous wine.
Or, Li Yuanji could be more cruel and increase the dose of poison.
Or maybe it was not Sun Simiao who detoxified, but a quack doctor!
What will be the consequences?
Thinking of this, Xiao Han felt cold all over his body and shook his head hastily, not daring to think about it any more.
Changsun Wuji, who was sitting opposite Xiao Han, was similar to him, except that besides fear and anger, there was obviously something more on his face.
"Little sister, what did Dr. Sun say?" Changsun Wuji took a deep breath and asked with a frown as he watched Changsun put away the medicine cups.
Changsun's hand holding the bowl trembled slightly, and he forced a smile on his beautiful face, and whispered: "Daozhang Sun said that there is nothing wrong with him. As long as he takes care of himself for a few days, he will slowly get better."
"That's good, that's good!"
Although he already knew the result, Changsun Wuji still breathed a sigh of relief after it was confirmed again.
He is now completely tied to Li Shimin! I simply can't imagine what Li Shimin would be like if he died.
After Changsun Wuji finished speaking these words, there was another silence in the audience.
It wasn't until the eldest grandson packed up his things and left the room that Li Shimin on the bed trembled slightly, and beads of sweat began to roll down his forehead.
"Now, what should we do?" Gritting his teeth, Li Shimin's body trembled more and more.
The remaining poison in his body had not yet been cleared away, and at this time he was stimulated by the detoxification soup, and he felt that the intestines in his stomach were knotted.
"Don't move yet, Xiao Han. Look at how severe the pain is. Is there any way to stop the pain?" Changsun Wuji saw Li Shimin's painful expression, and felt urgent in his heart. He looked at Xiao Han as if asking for help!
However, Xiao Han just shook his head slowly: "There are painkillers, but I don't dare to give them to him. If the nerves are paralyzed and the poison spreads, we will be in trouble!"
"I'm fine, I can hold on!" Li Shimin shook his head hard and said through gritted teeth.
"They, they are too cruel! We can't wait any longer! If we wait any longer, the variables will be too great!"
Seeing Li Shimin's insistence, Changsun Wuji wiped the sweat off his head with red eyes. After wiping away all his sweat, he clenched his fists and said angrily!
Hearing this, Li Shimin slowly closed his eyes and moved his purple lips slightly: "What do you think, Xiao Han?"
Xiao Han had a sullen face, looked at Changsun Wuji, and then at Li Shimin who was in great pain. He felt heartbroken and nodded heavily: "I agree with what Brother Wuji said! It's easy to hide from open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows! Now they are He has already attacked you and showed no mercy, so don’t blame us for being unjust to him!"
"It's hard to guard against hidden arrows..." Li Shimin said nothing, but his breathing became heavier and heavier, as if something was constantly fighting in his mind, making him unable to make a choice.
"King Qin, it's already this time, you can't hesitate any longer! If you wait any longer, the consequences will be unpredictable!" Changsun Wuji felt anxious when he saw Li Shimin was silent for a long time, so he tried to persuade him again.
"I know too." Li Shimin finally spoke. He sighed longly and whispered: "But those are my father and brothers after all. If it is true... then how can the world and future generations see it? I?"
"Descendants? King Qin remembers what happened to Emperor Shun!"
Changsun Wuji was not angry because of Li Shimin's hesitation, he just said in a deep voice: "If Emperor Shun had not avoided the poisonous hands of his father and brother filling the well with soil when dredging the well, he would have turned into the soil in the well!
If he had not escaped the murderous hands of his father and brother who set fire to the granary when he was painting it, he would have turned into ashes on the granary!
Now you, just like him, can only create your own path by standing up and resisting. When you are praised by the world in the future, people in this world will only remember your merits! "
