Chapter two hundred and forty seventh sudden change
The gray sky was shrouded in a cloud, which made people breathless, and the world seemed to suddenly change color.
Li Su ran wildly on the avenue, his eyes covered with red blood.
The ominous premonition is becoming clearer in my heart. The uneasy feeling that has lingered in my heart these days has finally come true. It turns out that it is not an illusion of itself, but a crisis that does exist.
It was too late to notify Dongyang, and Li Su just wanted to arrive at the Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an City as fast as possible and stopped him before Li Shimin made a decision.
The long horse whip mercilessly, and the sound of the wind in his ears whizzed by, and the cold wind cut his cheeks into pain like a blade, but Li Su's mind became clearer and clearer.
After Cheng Yaojin warned, Li Su was shocked.
He probably understood what the prince would do next, but what he guessed made his heart even more bloody. His happiness in this life was about to be destroyed by life.
A few days ago, I was sighing at the Feng family's cause and effect retribution, but I didn't know that cause and effect retribution is everywhere. Just like the cycle of life, everyone cannot escape. The cause that Li Su once planted is time to harvest the fruit today.
White foam had flowed from the corner of the horse's mouth. From Taiping Village to Chang'an City, Li Su only took half an hour this time, and the horse had done its best.
The towering city walls of Chang'an are far away, looking so terrifying under the gray sky.
On the bumpy horse's back, Li Su looked at the city wall from afar. The scenery in his eyelids kept shaking and regressing. The city wall in Chang'an was getting closer and closer. Li Su's pale face showed a miserable smile.

He Fuyan walked on the bluestone slab in the square in front of Tai Chi Palace. His steps were very steady and calm. Each step was the same distance, just in the middle of each stone slab.
From the first stone slab at the edge of the square to the last stone slab in front of the Chengtian Palace Gate, a straight line totals 990 stone slabs. He Fuyan took 990 steps. No step was wrong.
He Fuyan is the attendant censor in the palace. The censors of the Tang Dynasty were divided into three categories. The three were arranged side by side and restrained each other. The responsibilities of the attendant censor in the palace were to "take charge of reconciliation, raise all officials, and know how to push the bombs." In layman's behalf, the censor is a censor, and can be impeached by news and reports.
Today, He Fuyan entered the Tai Chi Palace alone, in order to make the right to perform bullets and slap.

Ganlu Temple.
Li Shimin was in a bad mood because he had a little unhappy with Gao Shilian yesterday.
Li Chengqian was in front of his father for less than three days. Gao Shilian asked for a meeting in person, and Gao's eldest son, Gao Lusheng, to propose marriage. The target of marriage was naturally Li Shimin's ninth daughter, Princess Dongyang.
Gao Luxing Zhong Yi Dongyang. It is not entirely because of her appearance, figure and gentle temperament. The marriage of a wealthy family has never been so simple.
Because the Gao family needs to make a marriage with the Tian family, this is the main motivation of the Gao family to propose marriage regardless of their seniority.
In the fifth year of Wude, Gao Shilian surrendered to Emperor Gaozu. His nephew, Changsun, became Li Shimin's vital officials, and the other became the Empress Wende, who was the beloved of Li Shimin throughout his life. To be fair, the Tian family has respected the Gao family very much over the years. In addition to Gao Shilian's correct position in the Xuanwu Gate, and decisively helped Li Shimin seize the Fanglin Gate, the bigger reason is that the Gao family was the uncle of the Changsun family, and the Changsun brothers and sisters were led by Gao Shilian since childhood, and this relationship has been made. How could Li Shimin not treat the Gao family with great courtesy?
However, the Gao family still needs to make this marriage with the Tian family.
Whether it was the sidelines and the blood relationship with the Changsun family was ultimately due to their past achievements and other people's face. This relationship is far less reliable than the real Tian family's in-laws. Only by marrying a princess into the house can the Gao family be truly safe and secure, and can stand invincible in the court with severe wind and rain, thus becoming a real aristocratic family.
Because of seniority, the Gao family once wanted to marry but could not speak. Gao Luxing and Li Shimin were peers, but they asked to marry someone else's daughter. They really couldn't open their mouths.
However, it was not until a few days ago that Prince Li Chengqian took the initiative to protect the media, and after some words, he finally expressed the wishes of the Gao family. Since the prince was starting out, it would be too stupid if the Gao family did not seize this opportunity.
So yesterday Gao Shilian asked to meet Li Shimin and officially asked Li Shimin for Princess Shang Dongyang in the name of the head of the Gao family.
The final result was not very ideal, and Li Shimin disappointed Gao Shilian.
The issue of seniority is ultimately a thorn that pierces Li Shimin's chest. The emperor's daughter has no worries about marrying, not to mention that Dongyang is born with a stunning and slim figure. What kind of young handsome guy in the world cannot marry? He has to marry a man who is one generation older than Dongyang?
Li Shimin felt a hundred unhappy. Facing Gao Shilian's proposal, Li Shimin smiled with a strong smile on his face. After a few words of humming and haha, he finally politely refused. Of course, in order to appease the founding old ministers, Li Shimin stuffed a lot of rare treasures in the palace like a rag for money, called rewards.
Gao Shilian failed to propose marriage and left Tai Chi Palace in disappointment. Although Li Shimin was very proud and tried his best to take care of the emotions and dignity of the founding heroes, after all, rejecting the Gao family's proposal made Gao Shilian feel very uncomfortable, and his face looked a little ugly when he left.
He was a little ruthless and cold towards Dongyang on weekdays, so this time it was naturally not Li Shimin's conscience discovery. The Gao family needed this marriage, but Li Shimin didn't. He cared too much about the discussions of the Tian family. The Xuanwu Gate Incident was scolded by the people of the world for more than ten years, and Li Shimin acted as a wise monarch who had been playing a wise and wise ruler for more than ten years before suppressing the scolding. The Tian family must not have any mistakes.
The marriage failed, Gao Shilian felt that he was embarrassed, and Li Shimin felt that the Gao family was too much and made such inappropriate demands, so Li Shimin and Gao Shilian were a little unhappy.
His face was gloomy all day long, and the eunuchs and palace maids inside and outside the Ganlu Hall were so scared that they didn't dare to breathe. Fortunately, Li Shimin had been a wise monarch for more than ten years and had no bad habit of venting his anger on others. Otherwise, the eunuchs and palace maids inside and outside the hall would inevitably have become a punching bag for Li Shimin to vent.
After reviewing the memorial, the little unhappiness finally calmed down. Li Shimin rubbed his forehead and was about to go to the harem to see the beauty of Caixuan who had just been selected into the palace a few days ago. He picked a woman with a satisfied appearance and figure from them to bed tonight. At this time, an eunuch hurried into the hall and reported that the censor He Fuyan in the hall was looking for a meeting outside the palace.
Li Shimin sighed and had to announce his wish.
Other court officials can stop them, but people like the censors cannot stop them. The censors hate the words of the censors the most. Those who are as wise as Li Shimin cannot easily offend them, otherwise they will inevitably be criticized again.
He Fuyan entered the palace. After the monarch and ministers greeted him, Li Shimin smiled and planned to say a few greetings and be polite as usual, and care about the daily life of the court officials with the attitude of the ultimate leader. Who knew that He Fuyan was not grateful at all. Before Li Shimin could speak, He Fuyan went straight to the point.
"Your Majesty, I found out that Li Su, a son of Jingyang County, had an affair with Princess Dongyang!"
