In the imperial study.
Li Shimin had already put on the armor he hadn't worn for a long time. He was gesturing with Wei Zheng and the people from the military around the sand table.
It seemed that the Emperor was about to go to war.
Li Chengqian panicked at the thought of this.
Hearing Li Chengqian's voice.
Li Shimin abruptly turned around and waved his hand, ordering the officials to withdraw for the time being. He hurriedly called Li Chengqian into the imperial study.
Li Shimin was also shocked by Li Chengqian's expression.
Li Shimin asked as soon as Li Chengqian entered, "Is there anything wrong with the Eastern Palace?"
"Father, there's nothing wrong with the Eastern Palace, but the situation in Chang 'an …"
Li Shimin gestured for Li Chengqian to keep quiet, then motioned for Li Chengqian to enter the rear hall.
Behind the imperial study was where Li Shimin rested. It was a room slightly smaller than the imperial study. There was nothing inside except for some daily necessities.
At this time, Li Shimin asked, "Did Fengzi send any message?"
"Fengzi said that we've already won!"
Li Shimin frowned and asked, "Then what's with the fire in the city?"
"If we've won, what about the incident in the city?"
For the first time, Li Shimin doubted Zhang Feng's judgment.
He had thought that the matter was over, but before he could catch his breath, he heard Fengzi speculating that there was a big secret in the underground palace.
And before he could react, he heard about the fire in Chang 'an.
If this matter was over, then what was it?
It was nothing more than Li Shimin getting angry. If Li Chengqian didn't know what Zhang Feng meant, he wouldn't have understood either.
Right now, seeing Li Shimin's anger, he hastily said, "Father Emperor, please calm down first, listen to Erchen's detailed explanation!"
Li Shimin lit a cigarette and looked at the candlelight with his hands behind his back, indicating for Li Chengqian to speak.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian said, "Father, Feng 'zi told me everything that happened today. I only completely understood today's battle afterwards."
"Feng Zi said that today's battle was even more ferocious and dangerous than personally leading hundreds of thousands of troops. He said that we have to think from another perspective. He also said that today, he actually only used one move, which was reasonable and unexpected. He also asked me to say that if I were to go …"
Li Chengqian repeated Zhang Feng's words and added his own understanding of the situation.
Li Shimin calmed down as he listened.
Listening carefully to Li Shimin's words, Li Shimin's mind slowly recalled everything that had happened today. In an instant, it was as if the whole of Chang 'an had come alive. Everything that had happened today appeared in his mind.
And the general plan of the entire Chang 'an City.
It was a wonderful feeling.
It was also very unclear.
Especially when Li Chengqian said that he had to think from another perspective.
Zhang Feng had said this sentence countless times, but every time Li Shimin encountered something, especially an emergency, he could not think of it!
At this time, listening to Li Chengqian's words, all the things that he did not understand before suddenly became clear.
However, Li Shimin still frowned and asked, "What do these things have to do with the fire in Chang 'an City now?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian felt an unprecedented feeling from his father for the first time, which was to face him head-on!
Yes, it was to face him head-on.
Li Chengqian's character was a bit of a procrastinator and a little timid. However, today's matter had his own different opinions, which made Li Shimin feel a little surprised.
Li Chengqian said, "In fact, we have to start from what Fengzi said was reasonable and unexpected. Everything that happened today was actually planned by the mysterious person. For example, what kind of reaction would we have when we found the underground palace, he had already thought about it thoroughly."
"What would happen if we didn't find the underground palace? He had already planned everything that we could think of. Although I haven't been to the underground palace, since he could imitate the Political Announcement Hall, he must have known about you, Prime Minister Wei, Fengzi, and the others. He must be very familiar with them. Therefore, he had already thought of everything that you could think of."
"However, I guess that this Wang Junke seems to be an accident. It seems that for some reason, or because he was blinded by money, or because he really came to find some secrets, he was exposed."
"Fengzi thought about it from Wang Junke's perspective. He said that this person used to be one of the Five Tiger Generals. To be able to get him, he must have promised something extraordinary. Perhaps it was a high position and generous salary, or something else. However, he was bound to be a tiger general in the hands of that person. The loss of this person was bound to make the mysterious person suffer a heavy blow. Therefore, tonight's matter has already been exposed. In order to hide his identity, this person set fire in Chang 'an City!"
Li Shimin asked with some surprise, "Could it be that you're talking about those people in the city preparing to escape?"
Li Chengqian nodded, then shook his head and said bitterly, "At the beginning, I also guessed so. However, when I thought of what Zhang Feng said was reasonable and unexpected, I had a bolder idea."
