But Li Shimin didn't think so. He was a smart man and knew that old man Li had already guessed something.

"No, I cannot fall into the hands of the Sui army."

Li Shimin thought to himself.

He guessed that such a search in the court would definitely require arrest warrants and rewards.

This old man Li is a woodcutter and lives a hard life.

Who can make it clear that they won't use themselves to receive the reward?

The more he thought about it, the more Li Shimin thought about it.

"Let's get something delicious tonight."

Old man Li told his mother-in-law.

"okay."

Mrs. Li responded.

In fact, at this time, the atmosphere between Li Shimin and this family has become strange.

When it was dark and having dinner, Li Shimin quietly put away a sickle in his hand.

During the meal, Li Shimin and Old Man Li were talking and laughing.

After eating, everyone went to rest.

Li Shimin didn't fall asleep, but got up slowly after hearing a snoring sound.

Holding the sickle, he walked up to Old Man Li and his wife.

"Don't blame me for being ruthless, it was you who were unrighteous first."

Li Shimin said coldly.

After saying that, he suddenly raised his sickle and slashed at Old Man Li and his wife fiercely.

"what!"

With a scream, old man Li died on the spot.

Mrs. Li was awakened, and looked at Li Shimin in horror.

When Li Shimin wanted to attack, Li Shi also came back to his senses and fled out scrambling.

"Our family treats you so well, why are you so cruel?"

Can't run anymore, Li asked in grief.

"it is good?"

Li Shimin sneered.

"So good that you want to use me for bounty money?"

he asked again.

"What did you say?"

Li was at a loss.

In the next second, Li Shimin's sickle struck up.

With an expression of extreme resentment, Li directly poured into the pool of blood.

After doing all this, Li Shimin finally slumped on the ground.

At this moment, flames lit up all around, and many people raised torches and approached.

Li Shimin suddenly became vigilant and looked around anxiously.

When the flame approached, a group of armored soldiers jumped out and surrounded Li Shimin.

"It's over!"

Li Shimin let out a mournful cry, thinking that the Sui army had killed him, and the old man Li and his wife really did so.

"Second son?"

It wasn't until a call came that Li Shimin withdrew his thoughts.

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar face.

Isn't this face exactly Duan Zhixuan?

It turned out that he just searched here and heard that there were woodcutters on the mountain, so he came here to look for it.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was found.

"Duan Zhixuan?"

Li Shimin was in doubt.

"It's me, that's great, Second Young Master, you are indeed alive!"

Duan Zhixuan said excitedly.

In addition to being happy, he looked at the corpse on the ground in doubt. It was just a peasant woman.

Li Shimin also realized that he had misunderstood the old man Li and his wife.

They didn't betray themselves at all, and the troops under the mountain were all from the Li family.

"I..."

Regret came like a tide.

For the first time, Li Shimin blamed himself so much.

"No, it's not my fault!"

Soon, he comforted himself again.

"It's better for me to betray the world than for the world to defeat me. I want to be like Cao Cao!"

Li Shimin muttered.

Li Shimin thought of this, and the guilt in his heart disappeared without a trace.

"Second son, what happened?"

Duan Zhixuan asked.

Li Shimin fell silent, looked at the peasant woman's body, and fell into a long silence.

"It's nothing."

When he came back to his senses, he waved his hand and didn't choose to talk more about the peasant woman and old man Li.

"Second Young Master, you are fine."

Duan Zhixuan's joy was beyond words.

After all, the Li family spent a lot of manpower and money searching for it, and it was still risky to find this place this time.

Because it is very likely that they will encounter the Sui army.

At that time, the men and horses sent out to look for it may all be buried in this place.

"Second Young Master, are you alright?"

Duan Zhixuan asked in surprise.

At this time, Li Shimin was wearing the clothes of the old man Li, and his body was very clean. He was completely different from Li Jiancheng.

"How could it be okay, and I'm still recovering from my injuries."

Li Shimin smiled wryly.

"Great, all the main members of the Li family are safe now."

Duan Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ok?"

Li Shimin heard something, raised his eyebrows and looked at Duan Zhixuan.

"Is my brother okay?"

he asked.

"Yes, the eldest son has returned to Taiyuan now, but he is seriously injured."

Duan Zhixuan replied.

"Ah."

Li Shimin responded lightly.

His complexion was not very good-looking, and his brows were slightly wrinkled.

Li Shimin originally thought that Li Jiancheng was dead, after all, he was diving in the east of the river.

It is very likely to encounter the Sui army, either to be killed or to die in the water.

Unexpectedly, Li Jiancheng would be able to return to Taiyuan alive in such a situation.

"Okay, let's go back and talk."

Withdrawing his thoughts, Li Shimin said.

"Then this..."

Duan Zhixuan pointed to the corpse on the ground, hesitant to speak.

"Buy it."

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said.

After all, the old man Li's family saved him, and he himself did something wrong, so they shouldn't be exposed to the wilderness.

"promise."

Duan Zhixuan took the order and quickly ordered people to bury the peasant woman and old man Li.

After doing all this well, Li Shimin followed Duan Zhixuan back to Taiyuan.

Arriving in Taiyuan, Li Yuan and Li Yuanji, who heard the news, went to the city gate to greet them together.

When seeing Li Shimin, Li Yuan was so happy.

"Shimin."

he exclaimed excitedly.

"Father."

Li Shimin was also a little excited.

Even looking at Li Yuanji, he was a little pleasing to the eye.

"I didn't expect the second brother to come back alive."

Li Yuanji's face was ugly.

Li Jiancheng is alive, he can still accept it, Li Shimin is also alive, it is no different from before.

Li Yuanji originally wanted to kill Li Jiancheng, but when Li Shimin came back, he still wanted to change his mind.

Li Jiancheng can't move, and he will continue to support Li Jiancheng and suppress Li Shimin as before.

"Quick, go back and let your mother see."

Li Yuan said.

"it is good."

Li Shimin replied.

Afterwards, the group quickly returned to Tang Guogong's mansion.

Li Shimin immediately went to see his mother, Dou Shi.
