Wu Xi was always a little timid towards that Senior Brother Wei.

It's strange that she doesn't seem to hold a grudge against Wei Zheng.

Instead, I am content with this status quo.

Chen Zhengtai probably expected that this should be caused by Wu Qi's childhood experience.

Which of her brothers and sisters hates her to the core? Therefore, if there is a brother who truly cares about her, no matter how strict she is, as long as she can feel the other person's kindness, she is willing to obey it.

Chen Zhengtai only smiled dryly and said, "I want to hide when I see this disciple. He always has a stern face, but it seems like I owe him money, which is scary."

Wu Xi couldn't help but laugh, his face relaxed, and said with a smile: "Yes."

Chen Zhengtai finally returned to the mansion, cleaned up, and then went back to the palace.

Li Shimin's wound healed quickly, which made Chen Zhengtai sigh at the wonderful use of penicillin. After three or four days, Li Shimin could almost be helped down and barely walked down the ground.

But he still should not move too much, and he seems extremely careful every step he takes.

Chen Zhengtai took care of him with all his heart. Li Shimin woke up and confirmed that after he was resurrected, what he was thinking about at this time was the issue of the country and the country.

Zhang Liang's rebellion shocked him too much.

Chen Zhengtai took a huge risk and took the prince to perform surgery on him, which also made Li Shimin's cold heart a little more warm.

Therefore, he leaned against the couch, but always assigned some books to Chen Zhengtai to read to him in front of him.

Especially the "Book of Emperor Gaozu" in Records of the Grand Historian, he has listened to it several times.

I listened to "Biography of the Marquis of Huaiyin" twice.

Every time he heard this, Li Shimin showed pain and said, "If the Marquis of Huaiyin could be at peace, perhaps Liu Bang would not have detained the Marquis of Huaiyin, and in the end, this Marquis of Huaiyin might not be harmed by Empress Lu. But now I think carefully, is this true? Once the king and his ministers... once they lose their trust, what's the use of being at peace? If I am the Marquis of Huaiyin, I should rebel. But if I am the Emperor Taizu of Han, I will definitely detain the Marquis of Huaiyin. If I am Empress Lu, I will definitely eliminate the Marquis of Huaiyin and then go quickly."

Seeing that a layer of haze seemed to rise on Li Shimin's face, Chen Zhengtai didn't say much, he just silently became Li Shimin's audience.

Li Shimin said, "I have figured it out now. If the heroes are unreliable, they will kill them. If the aristocratic clans do not want to be ministers of my Tang Dynasty, why should I give preferential treatment? If the good sons refuse to serve me, aren't the ones who save the Lord this time the wealth and honor given by the country are unwilling to take, and some of them will take them. If there are people who are unfulfilled, I can replace them with those who are eager to achieve success. Tomorrow, the crown prince will meet the officials again, right?"

Hearing Li Shimin's question, Chen Zhengtai said, "Yes, the crown prince will meet all the officials tomorrow."

Li Shimin's eyes became deeper and suddenly said, "Let's call a new army into the palace tomorrow."

"ah……"

This was really surprising. Chen Zhengtai looked at Li Shimin in surprise and said, "The new army entered the palace... I'm afraid it's inappropriate, after all..."

Li Shimin said confidently: "I said it's right. You kid, now you are here to ask if it's right. When you rescued the car, you were adept at dispatching the new army, but you didn't see you as timid as a mouse. Now you are tempted?"

Chen Zhengtai had to smiled dryly and said, "This... the situation is different. At that time, I was in a hurry, so I naturally didn't care much. Besides, His Majesty also punished Erchen. In addition to the son-in-law, Erchen is just a commoner, so he naturally remembered the lesson and never dared to do anything wrong again from now on."

Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai meaningfully.

This guy...

"Besides, isn't this new army going to be abolished? If it enters the palace tomorrow, it's awful that it's not appropriate, and it's inevitable that it will be criticized again. Erchen is really afraid, and it's okay to take the blame. Anyway, Erchen always has a princess as his wife, and has climbed the princess's high branches, and there's always a way out. But these soldiers... can't harm them anymore. Whenever they think that they are about to be dismissed, they don't know what to do in the future, but Erchen feels like a knife."

Li Shimin closed his eyes and snorted coldly: "Stop talking, I am still recuperating and don't want to get angry."

"Oh." Chen Zhengtai kept his mouth obediently: "But, Your Majesty's injury..."

"I can't die." Li Shimin was so arrogant that he spoke strongly: "Since I've walked from the gate of hell, then... the King of Hell naturally dared not accept me, you don't have to worry about me."

Since His Majesty said this, Chen Zhengtai had no choice but to nod and responded.

This night, he was destined to be unable to sleep. Chen Zhengtai had asked Zhang Qian to send people to the new army to convey his order, but he was still staying in the palace.

He and Princess Sui'an lived in a side hall. A few days ago, Princess Sui'an was uneasy. Now seeing that her father is getting better, she has a little more smile on her face.

When it was late at night, Chen Zhengtai and Yi were about to sleep, while Princess Sui'an was tidying up the gauze bandaged by Li Shimin.

She sat in front of the small window, suddenly her eyes raised and she looked out the window with a meticulous look.

Chen Zhengtai looked at her strange look and couldn't help but say, "What's wrong?"

Princess Sui'an frowned slightly: "Strange, the lights in the Mingtang there were actually lit up."

Chen Zhengtai immediately arrived at the windowsill and saw that the lights in the small Mingtang were as bright as daylight.

After Buddhism was introduced, it once flourished for a while. Even now, Buddhism is very prosperous. Many noble people in the palace cannot establish Buddhist temples in the palace, and they are not suitable to go out to worship Buddha in the temple, so they built small Mingtangs near their bedrooms to worship Buddha.

No one in the palace will ask about such things.

People at this time are very open-minded. As long as you don’t believe in gods like being pregnant with glare at you, you don’t harm others, and no one interferes too much.

Chen Zhengtai looked at it calmly for a while and said, "You are here, I'll go and take a look."

Princess Sui'an said: "Maybe some eunuch gave her a night sacrifice without authorization. Why should she be troubled..."

Chen Zhengtai tiptoed: "Where is it the crown prince? I'll catch him."

After saying that, he went out with his shoes and within a short while, he tiptoed to the small Mingtang.

Through the window, you can see the candle shadows swaying inside, but you can see a man wearing a sky crown, a crown robe and a jade belt. With the help of a eunuch, he sat opposite the Buddha statue.

Chen Zhengtai took a breath when he saw the man's silhouette. Who is this person... not Li Shimin?

Your Majesty was seriously injured and was dressed so grandly at this time. What should I do when I ran here in the middle of the night?

Li Shimin in the Mingtang raised his head and stood up with the statue of Buddha, motionless for a long time.

Only Zhang Qian tiptoed to the Buddha statue, then bowed to it, and retreated behind Li Shimin.

It was obviously painful for Li Shimin to sit like this, but he seemed to have no regard for the pain at all, just looked up at the Buddha statue and said nothing.

Chen Zhengtai was surprised to see it, and was busy holding his breath.

After a long time, Li Shimin sighed. When he spoke, he seemed a little out of breath, but his tone was extremely deterred: "What Buddhism says, I don't believe it. I have the world today. It is because I hold a butcher knife and I don't know how many creatures I have killed. I have blood on my sword and my hands are covered with blood. How could it be that I can just put down the butcher knife to settle the account? But in this deep palace, I don't know how many people worship this wood image, and they respect it like gods, so why don't I know it? I still don't believe it today! If I say that I am obsessed with it, I'm confused. But... I'm here today... cough cough... I'm here... but I still hope to find a wood image and make a wish."

As he said that, he actually stood up slowly.

But when he stood up, it seemed very difficult, and every tiny movement was extremely slow.

When he stood up with difficulty, he closed his hands, then looked up at the wooden statue and said word by word: "What I wish is...the world... is too... peace!"

At the four-character exit, Li Shimin put one hand on Zhang Qian's shoulder beside him, then limped, turned around and left.

The wood image is still the same, only the incense burner in front of the desk is raising smoke.

The wooden statue did not respond to Li Shimin.

But Li Shimin's words have been delivered.

Peace in the world.

Chen Zhengtai felt that this scene was quite ironic.

Perhaps... it was because Li Shimin was unwilling to accept this so-called peace that he came here to pray.

Chen Zhengtai hid in the darkness, and waited for Li Shimin to go further and further with Zhang Qian's support, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

On the way back, he buried his head and walked steadily under the moonlight, with only those four words in his mind, peace in the world!

But he thought about it, but felt that he had lost his sleepiness. The four words "Peace in the world" were spoken by Li Shimin, but it seemed that there were only two words... Killing!

With a lot of thoughts, Princess Sui'an returned to the hall. She was waiting for him and said with a smile: "Which eunuch went to Mingtang in the middle of the night?"

"The biggest one." Chen Zhengtai looked thoughtful.

Princess Sui'an was puzzled. Is there any difference between eunuchs? She wanted to ask more questions, but Chen Zhengtai said, "Okay, no matter what, I'm going to bed, there are still serious things tomorrow. You haven't had a good rest for many days, so I'll have a rest earlier today!"

Princess Sui'an didn't say anything more and went to the bed obediently!

……………………

Although the training of the new army camp continued, many people did not know where their future was.

The decree to abolish the new army has been issued, but Deng Jian and Su Dingfang people still kept the people in the camp for the time being and still practiced as usual.

There was an indescribable atmosphere in the camp. Although it was very hard to practice in the camp, many people even felt that they could no longer bear it.

Liu Sheng was one of them. Many times, he wanted to give up, go home, and meet his parents. He even thought that he might as well find a job, take over his father's work for the rest of his life, and be a carpenter.

But when the news of the layoff came, Liu Sheng could not feel a trace of joy.

He felt that he had become accustomed to the place, and got up at the whistle every day, used to tidying up the bedding immediately, and then fully armed, and used to running and having fun with the brothers in the camp. He was even used to the people who joined the military mansion to speak newspapers.

But now... it seems that everything is about to end. The robes that used to live, eat and practice have since been separated and gone their separate ways, and a reluctance of feeling permeated everyone's hearts.

Therefore, in the past two days of training, almost no one complained, and everyone silently cherished every day passing by.

The whistle remains.

As usual, Liu Sheng quickly began to wear his armor, put on his boots, and a helmet on his head. Then he took out all the weapons, a dagger, a sword straddling his waist, and a musket in his hand.

I sorted out my clothes and made sure that I had my knee pads and hand pads, and then I appeared at the school ground with the others.

The four camps have been lined up.

Su Dingfang took Xue Rengui, Heichi Changzhi, and Chen Zhengye to review the various battalions.

Immediately afterwards, Deng Jian took out a prince's edict: "The new army obeys the order and eats early immediately, and then enters the palace, so there must be no mistakes!"

Entering the palace...

There was a small movement in the team, so that the sound of the armor rubbing on their bodies sounded loudly.
To be continued...
