The two sons rebelled one after another, which had caused an extremely serious blow to Li Shimin. Even though he said he could "hold it", he was actually on the verge of collapse. As a result, he saw that Hou Junji, the general he favored the most, was on the list of rebellions. This made him finally unable to withstand such a blow. He vomited blood and fell to the ground in grief and anger.

With Li Shimin falling ill, the entire palace was in chaos. Fortunately, Li Shimin was not in danger of his life. Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji were also with Li Shimin. After the imperial doctor advised Li Shimin to rest, Li Xiu and the other two were also ready to say goodbye and leave. After all, Li Shimin's physical condition is not suitable for discussion.

However, what Li Xiu did not expect was that Li Shimin did not let them leave, but instead called them to the hospital bed. At this time, his face was gray and his cheeks were sunken deeply, looking even older than before.

"Your Majesty, your health is the most important thing. Leave the rest to me to deal with!" Changsun Wuji saw Li Shimin's appearance and immediately persuaded him again. Now that such a big thing has happened in the court, if Li Shimin falls again, the Tang Dynasty will be in chaos, so he must let Li Shimin take care of his health no matter what.

"It's okay. Although I vomited blood before, I hurt my body, but I felt that the accumulated air in my chest was gone. Now I even breathed much more smoothly." Li Shimin waved his hand at this time, but his voice was still very weak.

"By the way, except for the Han King who was outside the country, have all other accomplices arrested?" Li Shimin asked again at this time. In fact, what he wanted to ask the most was Hou Junji, but now he really didn't want to mention this name anymore.

"I just received the news that these rebellious accomplices have been arrested and have been escorted to Dali Temple for trial. As for the King of Han, people have been sent, and there should be news soon." Changsun Wuji hesitated for a moment and finally reported the report. Just when Li Shimin vomited blood and rescued him, news came from outside that all the princely gangs related to the rebellion have been arrested, and Hou Junji was the last to be arrested.

"That's good. No one who is involved in this matter is allowed to be let go!" Li Shimin said hatred when he heard Changsun Wuji's words. Even now, he still felt that the reason why Li Chengqian rebelled was mainly encouraged by the people around him, especially Li Yuanchang and others. Of course, Li Shimin, as his father, may think so just to make himself feel better, but the more this happens, the more miserable the fate of Li Yuanchang and others will be.

Changsun Wuji also agreed immediately, and then Li Shimin turned to Li Xiu again, and the expression on his face eased a little, saying, "I heard that the Crown Princess went outside the city, probably to ask for help, right?"

"The Crown Princess is a woman who values ​​love and friendship. Now the princess is taking care of her so that she will not be able to do anything stupid." Li Xiu nodded at this time and said, "Su left the East Palace and left the city again. Such a big thing must be hidden from Li Shimin's eyes and ears.

"This Su family was originally a concubine chosen by Cheng Qian, but he didn't expect that she was indeed a good woman. Even from her, I actually saw a few shadows of Guanyin maid. Cheng Qian had such a wife, and it was his blessing to him!" Li Shimin nodded at this time. When he was hit before the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Empress Changsun was unyielding to him. Now Su family is the same for Li Chengqian. This is also the only thing that makes him feel relieved after Li Chengqian was released.

When Li Shimin mentioned Empress Changsun, Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji also looked at each other, and both saw a little regret in each other's eyes. If Empress Changsun was still alive, Li Chengqian would not have been forced to rebel.

Li Shimin paused for a moment, then looked at Li Xiu and said, "But although this Su family is like a Guanyin maid in character, he is far less clever than Guanyin maid, because she didn't know that even if she didn't go to your place, you would still come to the palace to plead for Chengqian."

Perhaps it was because of the betrayal of his sons that Li Shimin missed Empress Changsun even more. Even when talking about Empress Changsun, a little longing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji feel even more uncomfortable, because Li Shimin rarely mentions the deceased Empress Changsun in front of others, and now his mood is obviously a bit abnormal.

Li Shimin was immersed in his memories of Empress Changsun for a while, and finally suddenly thought of something. He looked up at Li Xiu again and said, "By the way, I remember when I went to your house last time and I was about to leave in the end, you asked me and hoped that I could promise you that no matter what wrong Chengqian did in the future, I would be able to understand him more. Did you expect Chengqian to reach this point today?"

Li Xiu was shocked when he heard Li Shimin's words. That day he asked Li Shimin to be more considerate of Li Chengqian. It was indeed as he guessed that Li Shimin could spare his life after Li Chengqian rebelled. However, Li Xiu would definitely not admit this. First, there was no way to explain it. Second, if he admitted it, he might be involved in this case.

So Li Xiu deliberately smiled bitterly at this time: "Your Majesty is so arrogant. I don't have the ability to predict the future. It's just that when Your Majesty killed the actor himself, I felt that it would make the prince sad and thus make him do something on purpose anger Your Majesty, so I asked Your Majesty not to be as knowledgeable as the prince."

Li Xiu's explanation was also perfect, but Li Shimin still looked at Li Xiu with suspicion at this time. He did not doubt whether Li Xiu and Li Chengqian had any connection with the rebellion, but recalled that in the years since he met Li Xiu, the other party showed a far-reaching decision in many things. It seemed that he could really predict the next development of the matter. In the past, he just thought that Li Xiu had vision, but now he found that things were not right.

In fact, not only Li Shimin thought of this above, but Changsun Wuji next to him also looked at Li Xiu suspiciously. After Li Shimin's reminder, he also thought of Li Xiu's previous deeds, especially in some major court events. Li Xiu seemed to be able to make a first judgment, and he almost never made any mistakes. This ability is simply too outrageous.

Li Xiu naturally noticed the strangeness between Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji, which made him smile bitterly in his heart. No matter how he disguised himself, he could not escape the eyes of people like Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji. However, even so, he could not tell the truth. After all, this is his biggest secret, and even if he said it, no one would believe it.

"Report to Your Majesty, the King of Wei is asking for a meeting!" At this moment, an eunuch suddenly came to report, which made Li Xiu feel relieved. This was the first time he discovered that Li Tai was so cute.
