Of course, he was not the only one with this idea. Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were also the first to discover this matter. They found Shu Jindou immediately. The three of them calculated together, but none of them made sense, so they decided to go to the palace together. On the way, they met Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and others, so they went to the palace together.
Although they were old, they did not slow down. In less than a moment, they arrived in front of Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, your humble servant."
Everyone bowed in unison, but their faces were gloomy. In their eyes, they were also the backbone of the Tang Dynasty. They should be loyal to the emperor. But today, they failed to see through the mystery in the sky. It was really a shame.
"You don't have to be so courteous."
Li Shimin replied casually. Then he pointed to the sky and frowned. "Dear ministers, please look. What is this thing in the sky? Do you know? "
"Your Majesty, please stop."
Shu Jindou hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Li Shimin's right hand. His face was a little ugly. "Your Majesty, now it is said that the thing in the sky is an immortal. I'm afraid that such behavior will be disrespectful to immortals."
"Immortals?"
Li Shimin was a little unhappy. He did not believe in these things. At most, he was in awe. But this guy said the same thing. He really did not know how to talk. "Do you think it is an immortal?"
"Well …"
Shu Jindou glanced at the unknown object in the sky and did not know how to answer. If he did not believe it, he was a person who observed the astronomical phenomena and calculated the solar terms. He was still a little sensitive to these unpredictable things. If he believed it, His Majesty seemed to be a little dissatisfied. This was difficult for him.
"Your Majesty, I don't think we should come to a conclusion so early."
Wei Zheng stepped forward, stroked his beard, and said seriously.
"Oh."
Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng and asked in confusion, "Why do you say that?"
He was more optimistic about Wei Zheng, not because the latter often advised him or was loyal, but because he could often find the key to the problem and hit the nail on the head.
"Your Majesty."
Wei Zheng bowed and glanced at the sky. Then, he said seriously, "Your Majesty, I don't think it's urgent to figure out what the thing in the sky is, but to appease the people first. The people are ignorant. If such a thing appears, they will definitely regard it as a divine object and rush to worship it. On my way here, I saw that Chang 'an City was in chaos. Countless people were kneeling on the ground, calling it an immortal and worshipping it wantonly. If this goes on, I'm afraid it will cause a commotion, or even a mutiny."
He deliberately emphasized the word "mutiny" and glanced at Cheng Yaojin while speaking. Because the Chang 'an City Gate was under the control of Cheng Yaojin's subordinates, now that something had happened, Cheng Yaojin could not get away with it.
Cheng Yaojin seemed to have felt the cold gaze as well. His old face darkened, and he immediately jumped out. "Wei Zheng, who are you scolding in a roundabout way? If you have the guts, let's go to the Martial Arts Practice Field to practice. Don't stab Lao Tzu in the back. "
"Zhijie …"
Li Shimin shouted and stared at Cheng Yaojin with a pair of tiger-like eyes. "What are you doing? This is the palace, not your home. You are not allowed to make trouble here."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Cheng Yaojin quickly stepped back and pointed at Wei Zheng with a fierce face. "It's this old …"
Halfway through his words, he saw that Li Shimin's eyes were a little dissatisfied. He cupped his hands repeatedly. He was not afraid of anything, but he was afraid of Li Shimin.
"Stop talking. Let me ask you, what's the situation in Chang 'an City?"
Li Shimin waved his hand, as if he did not want to listen to Cheng Yaojin's explanation. Instead, he directly asked about the situation in Chang 'an City.
"Your Majesty, this …"
Cheng Yaojin cupped his hands, and his face was a little ugly.
"What is this? I want to hear the current situation in Chang 'an City from you. "
Li Shimin stared at Cheng Yaojin and said sternly. Chang 'an City was the heart of the Tang Dynasty and the lifeline of the world. It was the place he cared about the most. If it were not for Wei Zheng's advice, he would not have known the situation until now. This guy was still unwilling to talk about it?
"Your Majesty, when the unidentified object appeared earlier, there was indeed a commotion in Chang 'an City. Fortunately, I have stopped it."
Cheng Yaojin bowed and said in a trembling voice.
"I'm afraid not."
Wei Zheng looked at him coldly and said with cupped hands, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, there is a commotion in Chang 'an City now. The guards guarding the city can't stop it. There are signs of people passing on."
After that, he waved his sleeve and coldly glanced at Cheng Yaojin. Of course, he did not deliberately target Cheng Yaojin. He just felt that when such a big thing happened, how could Cheng Yaojin, a Duke, stop it? Instead, he made things worse. He was really ashamed to face His Majesty and the Tang Dynasty.
"Wei Zheng, don't talk nonsense here. Who said I didn't stop it?"
Cheng Yaojin stared and pointed at Wei Zheng, very dissatisfied.
"Cheng Yaojin, shut up."
Li Shimin did not shout "Zhijie" this time. He was really angry. He took a long breath and said coldly, "Did you stop the commotion in Chang 'an City or not?"
