At night.
The people in the underground palace were still lying in ambush.
But Wang Junke had been secretly escorted back to the palace to await the emperor's execution.
But the first step was to pry open his mouth.
In the imperial study.
At this time, Li Shimin still didn't feel sleepy at all.
He didn't even have the slightest intention to read the memorials. They were all piled up to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.
In the imperial study.
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng were all busy.
Ever since the Underground Palace incident in Chang 'an was leaked, the secret letters had been sent out in an endless stream.
At this time, in addition to cigarette butts under everyone's feet, there were waste papers all over the floor.
Cigarettes were the only source of support for them. Until now, they finally understood why Zhang Feng admired this thing so much.
This thing was really a divine thing to refresh the mind!
And cigarettes had become the standard of all the officials in the entire Tang Dynasty.
Without cigarettes, not to mention others, even they would feel a little degrading.
The first thing to do when going to work was a cup of tea and a cigarette. Whether to smoke or not depended on the person.
In a moment, the whole room was full of smoke.
But, what was this?
This was a new trend.
It was good stuff.
At this time, Xiao Guizi walked into the imperial study in a panic. He was carelessly knocked by the threshold and fell down instantly. Xiao Guizi was so scared that he hurriedly exclaimed, "Your Majesty, the big fish took the bait!"
"Wow —!"
In an instant.
Whether it was Li Shimin,
Or Wei Zheng and the others instantly raised their heads from the pile of small pieces of paper.
"What did you say?"
"Who!"
Li Shimin suddenly asked.
"It's …"
Xiao Guizi looked at Wei Zheng hesitantly. But when he turned to look at Li Shimin, he trembled and hurriedly said, "It's General Wang Junke."
"Buzz —!"
Li Shimin's head instantly exploded.
Wang Junke!
How could it be Wang Junke?
This was simply impossible!
"Tell me in detail!"
Li Shimin said with a wave of his sleeve.
He couldn't believe that Wang Junke was the one they caught tonight.
This person was a direct subordinate of the military, but because of the incident at Tongguan, he had been recuperating at home. If not for hearing this name today, Li Shimin would have almost forgotten about this person.
Back then, it was he who was stationed at Tong Pass.
Because the civil officials in the court had been holding on to the fact that he had delayed reporting military intelligence, almost half of the civil officials were impeaching him. Under the pressure, Li Shimin had no choice but to punish him and order him to recuperate at home.
But at this time, Li Shimin did not expect that this Wang Junke would actually walk on such a path.
The faces of Wei Zheng, Zhangsun Wuji, and the others also changed greatly at this time. They did not dare to say anything. They all knew the weight of this Wang Junke in the army.
But at this moment, what does his appearance mean? "
And it was at this time.
The secret passage in this place was only known to those people. That was to say, Wang Junke had already …
Thinking of this, Wei Zheng and the others did not dare to say anything. If they said anything wrong at this time, what awaited them was the Emperor's anger!
Li Shimin was trembling all over at this time.
He staggered a step, put his hands on the desk, and pointed at Xiao Guizi with a trembling finger, "Where is he?"
"Your Majesty, General Qin is personally escorting him to the Imperial Study."
"Send him in!"
"I want to see him immediately!"
"Yes, Your Majesty …"
Li Shimin smoked one cigarette after another in the time it took to eat a meal. His face was so cold that it was about to drip water.
Wei Zheng and the others did not dare to disturb or make a sound.
At this time, the Emperor had already fallen into extreme anger. Anyone who made a sound at this time was courting death.
Amidst a flurry of footsteps and the clashing of armor, Li Shimin's eyes stared deeply at the door of the Imperial Study.
Qin Qiong's white robe slowly appeared outside the Imperial Study and reported, "I, Qin Qiong, escort the suspect to see you!"
"Come in!"
Li Shimin waved his sleeve and ordered.
Looking at Wang Junke behind Qin Qiong, Wei Zheng and the others hurriedly stood up in horror.
This person was one of the Five Tiger Generals of Wagang.
Who didn't know at that time? Who didn't know?
But because of the Wei River Alliance and the defeat at Tong Pass, this person actually …
As soon as they entered the Imperial Study,
Qin Qiong explained the situation briefly and then stood to the side.
Li Shimin looked at Wang Junke. It could be said that Wang Junke had been looking at him since he saw him.
Wang Jun Ke also looked at Li Shiming proudly. Li Shiming and Li Shiming looked at each other.
"Your Highness Duke of Qin."
It was Wang Junke who spoke.
But Qin Qiong's face suddenly changed and he shouted angrily, "How dare you! Call him His Majesty!"
Li Shimin took a deep breath and slowly walked down from the dragon throne. He walked to Wang Junke and said in a low voice, "General Wang, we were old friends when we were in Wagang. Today, as long as you tell me everything you know, I don't think I will hurt you. I will guarantee that you and your family will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life. What do you think?"
"I know that you were harmed by a thief. You also know my temper. As long as you tell me who the thief is, I will immediately write you a decree that I will not hurt you in the future. What do you think?"
