Tang Dynasty: Nine-year-old County Grandpa

After the black shadow disappeared, Li Yuan realized that he was already soaked in cold sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

"Quick, please get out of here first!"

The eunuchs and guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Li Yuan standing in place.

However, they also soon discovered that the eunuchs and palace maids and guards who were originally in the Taiji Hall all died unexpectedly.

The mind blossoms, and the death is tragic.

"Your Majesty, what do you see?" asked

one of the guards.

"I saw the dead man's ......

" "Tell Li Shimin that his fourth brother is back......"

Li Yuan's bearded face was full of horror, and in the firelight, it became more and more weird.

......

After dawn, when Chu Jie's carriage came, the fire in the Taihe Hall could be extinguished.

Despite the best efforts of the eunuchs and guards who put out the fire, one-third of the entire palace had been burned down.

This is an irreversible repair that can only be dismantled and rebuilt.

And Chu Jie is destined to not sleep well in the past two days.

Because he was originally forced by Li Shimin not to participate in this matter, he was called back by a holy decree.

The matter of going to Taiyuan to investigate secretly is in vain.

"My lord, here we are.

Zhanzhao's voice came from the coachman's position.

"Hmm......"

Chu Jie responded, opened the door curtain of the carriage, and there was a very good smell of firewood.

The material of the Taihe Hall is a large number of precious woods that are still valuable even in later generations, the cheapest ones are pear blossom wood, and there are a large number of ebony, agarwood, and mahogany.

These things burn up, should I say it or not, it really smells very comfortable.

What caught my eye was a ruined ruin.

Collapsed buildings, still smoking.

Rainwater from the leaves of nearby plants was steaming when it was blown down to the site.

The corpses of the palace maids, eunuchs, and guards lay horizontally.

It's similar to the death of Li Shentong's guards and servants in King Jing's mansion, all of them are headed flowers.

The only difference is that the victim Li Yuan did not die this time.

"You, come here!" After

Chu Jie jumped out of the carriage, he suddenly called out to a fat eunuch who was running by in a hurry.

This eunuch was wearing a red eunuch robe, and his status was obviously not low.

"Meet Lord Chu!" The

eunuch hurriedly bowed down.

As a high-ranking eunuch in the palace, how could he not know Chu Jie, the big celebrity beside the emperor?

"How did the fire start?" asked

Chu Jie.

"This...... It hasn't been investigated yet, but according to the Emperor, he was frightened and kicked over the fire lit by the lampstand.

"It's a very common accident to have an accident with a lampstand. The

eunuch replied respectfully.

"Well, got it.

Chu Jie waved his hand and let the eunuch leave.

Then, he walked over and glanced at the body of one of the nearest guards.

The guard lay on his back on the ground, his body in large shape.

Obviously, it was killed head-on.

The face has long been unrecognizable, the skull is completely broken, and the brain is overflowing.

Collapse above the nose.

"The way to die is the same as that of King Jing's Mansion. "

However, why didn't the murderer make a move in the end?"

Chu Jie muttered to himself, which was heard by Zhanzhao.

"My lord, could it be that the fire attracted the guards and eunuchs, so the murderer escaped?"

Zhan Zhao replied subconsciously.

"It doesn't make sense, if that guy really had the same bravery as when he killed Li Shentong, he just threw the hammer, and then turned around and fought his way out of the encirclement. "

Why do some people just can't move their hands and want to leave?"

Chu Jie shook his head.

At this time, Master Chen Xiu, who did not sit in the carriage and came in directly on foot, also came to the scene out of breath.

"My lord, I have asked the guards, and there is no sign of a fight anywhere else. "

It was like the guy had disappeared, there was no trace of him at all.

Chen Xiu gasped and said.

"Aha, that's a pity, the palace can't catch that guy with such tight protection, it's even more difficult.

Chu Jie shrugged his shoulders with some regret, and subconsciously glanced at an old poplar tree opposite the Taiji Hall.

On top of the poplar tree, there is also a trace of a rope entanglement.

He frowned thoughtfully.

"Lord Chu, what did you find?" Chen

Xiu asked subconsciously after seeing Chu Jie's expression.

"Nothing.

Chu Jie shook his head.

At this time, Wang De, a big eunuch wearing a purple eunuch robe, ran over.

"Lord Chu, have you finished watching the scene, but what are your requirements?"

asked Wang Debi respectfully.

"After reading it, there are no requirements.

Chu Jie replied dryly.

"That's right, Your Majesty wants you to go and see him.

Wang De said.

"Let's go!"

"You happen to go with me, and you don't have to run."

Chu Jie responded and got into the carriage.

"Hey, thank you Lord Chu!" Wang

De especially likes Chu Jie's inadvertent care, which is not utilitarian and makes people feel like a spring breeze.

This emotional intelligence is simply invincible.

Not long after, the carriage came to the Heart Cultivation Hall where Chu Jie was carried away last time.

Li Shimin obviously had just left the early dynasty, and he was still wearing a dragon robe, sitting on the master's seat.

"Chu Jie, you still have to handle this matter......"

After he saw Chu Jie come in, he waved his hand to signal that he was exempt from salute, and then sighed and said.

The majestic eyes flashed with apology.

"Your Majesty, if this person can kill General Li, he will be able to do more things. "

It's already aimed at the top of Datang, and it really can't be tolerated.

"This incident happened in Chang'an, and it is reasonable that Weichen should be responsible for it to the end."

Chu Jie said disappreciatively.

He didn't have much resentment about the last time he was forcibly carried out.

After all, Li Shimin valued him because he refused to let him have any intersection with Li Yuan.

"Aren't you afraid that after you meet the Emperor, I will have a grudge against you?"

asked Li Shimin with some curiosity.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is your protégé.

"What's more, there are a lot of courtiers who have not been wooed by the Emperor.

Chu Jie said with a slight smile.

There is still half a sentence that has not been said, that is, he will still be his son-in-law in the future.

didn't say that if Li Yuan was really so terrifying, his Xuanwu Sect change would have been finished long ago.

"Hahahaha, okay, with your Chu Jie's words, I can rest assured.

Of course, Li Shimin could hear Chu Jie's voice, and immediately laughed.

"Then, Weichen has time to see the Emperor Taishang now.

Chu Jie said again.

"Okay

, Wang De!" Li

Shimin nodded, called Wang De, and asked Wang De to take Chu Jie towards a certain palace.
