Chapter 37 Thirty-six

Hou Junji, who was covered in blood and dusty all over his face, was taken aback, and looked at Li Shimin: "The emperor wants to inspect the Flying Tiger Army?" Li Shimin nodded.Hou Junji said in a low tone: "They are all here." When Li Shimin raised his head, he couldn't help being stunned, and saw eleven people standing behind Hou Junji, all covered in blood. Li Shimin asked: "Are they the only ones left?" Hou Junji's face twitched a few times, he nodded and couldn't help but squatted down on the ground, crying "Wow".The ministers, generals, and guards behind Li Shimin were all crying. Only Li Shimin gritted his teeth tightly and did not shed a single tear. He stretched out his hand and patted the blood-stained battle armor on Hou Junji's back twice and said: "Why are you crying, stand up, there are eleven people, and I will inspect them too."

Hou Junji stood up, looked at his own soldiers, and shouted hoarsely: "Get on the horse, line up, and ask the emperor to review!" Several soldiers got on the horse with difficulty, and two others supported a wounded relative. Soldier, that soldier's arm was broken, one foot stepped on the saddle, but the other foot couldn't step up. Li Shimin stepped forward and helped him up with his own hands.The wounded soldier was moved to tears. Li Shimin got on his horse and led his ministers past these eleven people with a solemn expression.After reviewing, Li Shimin waved his whip and pointed to the north: "It is said that the Jieli cavalry is brave and invincible. Look at you. I want to say that the truly invincible warriors are under the banner of our Tang Dynasty. With your loyalty, this country will definitely become stronger. Yes!" Having said that, Li Shimin turned his face away, looking at the vast land, with only flames spewing out from his eyes.A military flag behind him was shaken by the wind.

At this moment, a fast horse galloped over, and a guard jumped off the horse, came to Li Shimin and knelt down, crying, "The concubine Shu has died!" Li Shimin was stunned: "What did you say?" ?" The guard cried, "Concubine Shu's funeral is over!" Li Shimin's expression changed dramatically. Holding the whip in his hand, Li Shimin hurried to Concubine Shu's bedroom.When he looked up, he saw Empress Changsun standing at the door holding Princess Ankang and Haitang. Little Ankang had already put on a white mourning dress.Empress Changsun looked at Li Shimin sadly, and Li Shimin understood everything.The horsewhip in his hand fell off like a madman, and he stumbled past Empress Changsun and walked in, shouting: "Concubine Shu! Concubine Shu!" Knocked down.

The eyes of Li Shimin's favorite woman were closed tightly, as if she was asleep. Li Shimin was dumbfounded, and after a long time, he walked slowly towards her body, and his voice became soft: "Concubine Shu, Concubine Shu! It's me who is back, you open your eyes." Eyes!" Concubine Shu didn't respond at all.Li Shimin quickly drew his sword and pointed it at Concubine Shu, almost roaring: "I order you! Open your eyes!" He suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Where is Sun He!" The situation outside is urgent, and there are rumors in the palace that Hu Qi has already entered the city, the imperial physician Sun took a dose of medicine for Concubine Shu, and then hurried out, and the servants went to find him."

Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard the words, his eyes fell on Concubine Shu's face, and he said in a hoarse voice: "You don't need to look for it, you all go down." He knew in his heart that Sun He would never appear in this palace again. He understood more clearly that it was none other than himself who killed the beautiful woman on the bed...
