It was already late at night. Li Xiu was lying on the bed with his eyes wide open, staring at a carving on the top of the bed without even blinking. The wind and snow outside the room became heavier again. The "woof" cold wind kept blowing. From time to time, snowflakes hit the window paper and found the "rustling" sound, which seemed to have a bit of hypnotic magic, but Li Xiu was not sleepy at all, and his mind was also in a mess.

At this moment, Yuechan, who was sleeping beside her, suddenly turned over, then gently hugged him and said, "What's wrong with your husband? You have been feeling in disgrace since you came back from Sanyuan County today. Have you encountered something?"

"It's nothing, but because of the location of the imperial tomb selection, you don't worry, I'll go to bed later!" Li Xiu immediately spoke, with a calm smile on his face, as if nothing was wrong.

Yuechan was actually very sleepy at this time. She just found that Li Xiu was not sleeping, so she asked casually. She didn't doubt Li Xiu's words. She immediately persuaded Li Xiu a few more words, and then fell asleep deeply. This also made Li Xiu breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't want his family to worry about him.

The room was as warm as spring, but Li Xiu couldn't sleep no matter what. Finally, he stood up and put on his clothes, then covered Yuechan with a quilt. Then he came to the study alone and sat there thinking for a long time. The expression on his face was also unpredictable, sometimes worried and sometimes helpless.

Li Xiu sat in the study room almost all night until it turned white outside the window that he showed a decisive expression. Then he gritted his teeth and stood up, opening a secret compartment in the study room, which was where he stored important items. Then he took out the key from his neck, opened the metal cabinet in the secret compartment, and took out a thick piece of rice paper from it, and carefully looked at the contents on it, then carefully folded it and put it in his arms.

It was not dawn outside, but Li Xiu asked someone to prepare a horse. At this time, the wind and snow outside had stopped. A thick layer of snow was accumulated on the road, but it did not affect the passage. Then Li Xiu rode on the horse and walked away on the snow, heading straight to Pei Ji's home in Nanshan.

At the same time, Li Shimin also got up early and came to Liangyi Hall to handle government affairs. Some time ago, Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin destroyed Tugushen, but the Tang Dynasty did not dare to accept it for a while, because smallpox is rampant everywhere in Tuguhun. Although the army of the Tang Dynasty had grown cowpox, there were still many people in some places in China who had not grown cowpox for some reasons. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty was also worried that the smallpox in Tuguhun would spread, and for this reason it blocked the border and strictly prohibited anyone from entering and leaving Tuguhun.

However, as time goes by and the weather becomes colder, the raging smallpox in Tuyuhun finally subsided. Now the Tang Dynasty has also begun to send officials to Tuyuhun, and the next step is to completely accept the territory and people of Tuyuhun. However, judging from the previous transmission range of smallpox, the population in Tuyuhun will probably be greatly reduced.

It was precisely because of Tuyuhun that Li Shimin was very busy during this period. He had to select officials to go to the southwest, and ordered the garrison entering Tuyuhun to obey the officials' orders. In addition, some necessary materials were also transported in. In addition, Tuyuhun's territory was not small and the terrain was very complicated. If the Tang Dynasty wanted to annex such a large place, it also needed to divide the prefecture. Although Li Shimin did not need to do these things personally, he still needed to preside over the major aspects. Therefore, he was also getting up early and going to bed late during this period, and there was almost no rest.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong, the Supreme Emperor... the Supreme Emperor..." At this moment, an eunuch suddenly ran in panic and reported the report loudly, but when he talked about the key points in the end, he was so angry that he couldn't say it.

When Li Shimin heard that Li Yuan was involved, and it seemed that it was not a good thing. This made him stand up in a hurry and widen his eyes and shouted angrily: "Speak well, what's wrong with the Supreme Emperor?"

When Li Shimin got angry, he immediately frightened the eunuch and shivered all over his body, but this made him finally breathe, and then he reported loudly: "Report...Report to Your Majesty, the people from Da'an Palace came to report that the Supreme Emperor suddenly became angry and threw things around. Finally, he fainted on the ground with anger. Now the imperial doctor has rushed over!"

When Li Shimin heard that Li Yuan had fainted, he was also shocked. He immediately ignored the need to deal with government affairs and directly asked someone to prepare horses. Then he rode his horse in the palace, passed through numerous palaces, and finally came to Da'an Palace through Xuanwu Gate. When he came to the palace, he found that the entire Da'an Palace was in chaos, and Li Yuan's bedroom was also in a mess, with things smashed by Li Yuan everywhere.

The imperial physician has arrived and is now rescuing Li Yuan in the palace. Li Shimin was anxious and had no choice but to wait in the outer hall. At this moment, he saw an old eunuch standing outside the hall, so he immediately called him and asked, "Sir Wang, why is my father so angry?"

This old eunuch named Wang Shi served by Li Yuan for many years and is one of the most caring people around Li Yuan. Li Shimin still doesn't know why Li Yuan was angry, so naturally he had to ask someone to ask, Wang Shi was the best candidate.

"This..." When the old eunuch Wang Shi heard Li Shimin's inquiry, he suddenly showed a look of embarrassment, and even hesitated and dared not say anything.

"If you say it, just say it. Are there anything I can't listen to?" Li Shimin said with a deep face when he saw Wang Shi's appearance.

Wang Shi was also shocked when he heard Li Shimin's reprimand. He then bit and finally said, "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor is in a good mood these days and will take a walk in the palace in his spare time. However, today the few eunuchs in the palace talk too much and chatted about the gossip that they heard outside, but they happened to be heard by the Supreme Emperor. As a result, the Supreme Emperor began to get furious. It was useless to persuade me no matter how much I persuaded me."

"Gosh? What gossip?" Li Shimin couldn't help but ask with a calm face again when he heard this.

"Just... that's..." Wang Shi began to hesitate again, but when he saw Li Shimin's stern eyes, he immediately shivered and then continued to speak, "It was because the Supreme Emperor who heard that His Majesty was going to move the tomb for Empress Dou and also built the tomb in Sanyuan County, so the Supreme Emperor got such a big temper."

After hearing Wang Shi's explanation, Li Shimin fell silent all of a sudden. He had just confirmed the transfer of his mother Empress Dou to the tomb, and there was no statement, so not many people knew about it. In fact, this was also something Li Shimin did deliberately because he knew that Li Yuan would get angry after knowing this, but he didn't expect that Li Yuan fainted in anger.

"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor... The Supreme Emperor is angry. I think it's better not to see him at this time!" At this moment, the Wang Shi once again relied on his courage to persuade Li Shimin. He had been by Li Yuan's side for many years, so he naturally understood the reason why Li Yuan was angry. Moreover, when Li Yuan got angry just now, he often called Li Shimin an unworthy son, so he advised Li Shimin not to see Li Yuan, so as not to have another conflict between the father and son.

Li Shimin was silent for a long time when he heard Wang Shi's words, but finally shook his head and said, "The father misunderstood what I mean, but the more I do this, the more I want to see him explain clearly, otherwise wouldn't I feel guilty?"

Wang Shi was just an old eunuch in the palace. Seeing that Li Shimin did not listen to advice, he did not dare to say anything. He retreated aside, while Li Shimin looked at his father Li Yuan's room, with a complicated look flashing in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking?

After a while, a few imperial doctors walked out while sweating. Seeing Li Shimin hurriedly came forward to salute, Li Shimin asked anxiously, "How about Father?"

"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor was just angry and was so disappointed. But now he has woken up. I have prescribed medicine. As long as I have been careful to recuperate for a period of time, the Supreme Emperor's body will recover!" The imperial doctor also reported immediately.

When Li Shimin heard that Li Yuan was in good health, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately took a step and wanted to go in, but at this time the imperial physician in charge stopped him with a embarrassed look on his face and said, "Your Majesty, I think you'd better not go to see the Supreme Emperor now."

"Why?" Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this.

"This..." The imperial doctor hesitated for a moment. When he was treating Li Yuan just now, he had already found out why Li Yuan was angry. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, although the Supreme Emperor is awake, his body is still very weak. It is absolutely not advisable to get angry again. If you go in now, it may worsen the Supreme Emperor's condition again!"

When Li Shimin heard the imperial doctor's words, his face couldn't help but sink again, but at this moment, another palace maid suddenly walked out of Li Yuan's room with a nervous look on her face. When he saw Li Shimin, he immediately bowed and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor said that no one wants to see him now!"

As soon as the maid said the words, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly became sharp, which made everyone around him so scared that they lowered their heads and dared not look at him. The palace maid who sent the message was even more frightened and trembled all over and fell to the ground. After all, the power of the emperor is not something that anyone can bear.

But after a moment, Li Shimin suddenly smiled helplessly, looked up at Li Yuan's room again, and then slowly said: "Since my father is not convenient to meet people, then I will come back next time!"

After Li Shimin said that, he turned around and left without any delay, which also made everyone around him feel relieved. Li Yuan in the ward also quickly got the news. Although he was full of illness at this time, he showed an intriguing smile after hearing the news that Li Shimin had left.

At the same time, Li Xiu had already met Pei Ji, but besides the two of them, there was another unexpected person here!
