Xiao Han also trembled and got off the horse, but he did not fall directly to the ground like Lao Deng and Lao Jiang.
Holding on to a huge stone next to him, Xiao Han endured the huge dizziness and grief and looked at Ren Qing with red eyes: "Is your Majesty here?"
"Here it comes! Right in front!" Ren Qing nodded solemnly, pointed forward, and whispered: "Your Majesty is very angry now!"
"It's time to be angry!" Xiao Han laughed sadly when he heard this, looked around, and said slowly: "Take me to see His Majesty."
At this time, Xiao Han was no longer a novice in officialdom!
Although he was dizzy for a while at the tragic situation in front of him! But he knew better that at this time, grief was of no use! Not to mention, the emperor didn't ask him to come to grieve!
Walking along the path full of gravel and trees, Xiao Han gradually saw some guards and soldiers.
Most of these people were busy rummaging through the rubble, but looking at their dazed expressions, you knew that what they were doing was just in vain.
"How many people died?" Suddenly, Xiao Han paused, turned his head, and asked Ren Qing in a low voice.
Ren Qing's eyes narrowed and he spoke slowly: "All the more than a hundred people in the workshop have disappeared! In addition, dozens of patrolling soldiers on the mountain have also disappeared. The soldiers at the foot of the mountain and down the mountain are either missing or were killed.
Two hundred and thirty-one, more than 300 were seriously injured!"
After saying this, Ren Qing glanced at Xiao Han again and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "After your Majesty came here, he also beheaded more than a dozen guarding school captains and stewards!"
Xiao Han nodded, but said nothing, but his mood became heavier and heavier.
He understands Li Shimin!
Although Xiao Lizi has great military exploits, he has never been a murderer! Nor is he a person who likes to express his anger with others!
However, such an enlightened monarch directly killed dozens of people without asking the reason! This is enough to illustrate Xiao Lizi's anger at this time!
"Your Majesty, right in front."
They walked quickly until they came to a huge rock that was three people tall. Ren Qing paused and whispered to Xiao Han.
When Xiao Han heard this, he nodded expressionlessly and walked forward, but before he could turn around the boulder, a group of military guards with bright helmets and bright armor were already standing in front of him.
——————
At the foot of the dilapidated mountain, a five-foot-wide open space is particularly eye-catching.
Different from the rugged gravels around it, this open space has obviously been cleaned by someone. The small stones have long since disappeared, and only a few larger boulders are still scattered here and there.
At this moment, in the open space, Li Shimin, dressed in a dragon robe, was standing quietly in the middle. Not far in front of him, a broken Buddha head was planted diagonally into the soil, leaving only half of his face exposed.
Looking at each other from a distance.
"Your Majesty! I deserve death for my crime!"
Duan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, came to the open space and knelt down behind the emperor with a thud, his dusty forehead already dripping with sweat.
Beside him, a puddle of dark red liquid had not yet dried up, giving off a strange luster under the reflection of the sun.
Duan Lun's body suddenly started to tremble even more when he saw the liquid out of the corner of his eye!
What is an unreasonable disaster? This is an unreasonable disaster!
Yesterday, their Ministry of Industry just announced that they would take over this place, but they didn't even have time to send anyone. Today, this place is gone?
What evil had Duan Lun done in his previous life to be able to encounter such misfortune? Even if it were one more night, it would not be his turn to take the blame!
"Get up, you just took over here, this matter has nothing to do with you!"
After a while, Xiao Lizi's voice without any hint of fireworks came from the front, which made Duan Lun's nose sore and he almost shed tears!
Just now, he was really afraid that he would be like those ten people, shouting that he was wronged, and then his beautiful head would be chopped off by the executioner!
"Where is Hou Junji? Are you here?"
Without looking at Duan Lun, who was moved to tears, Li Shimin slowly turned his attention to the chamberlain beside him.
"Back to Your Majesty, Hou Jun is detained at Dali Temple and has not arrived yet." Seeing this, the chamberlain quickly bowed and replied, then hesitated for a moment and then spoke carefully again: "However, Xiao Hou from Sanyuan County has arrived.
Waiting for summons outside."
"Xiao Han? Let him come over!" Li Shimin's eyes trembled slightly, he turned around and looked at the devastated mountains, and said in a low voice.
Before Xiao Han saw Li Shimin, several chamberlains had already touched him all over his body.
If this was Chang'an in the past, this would have been something that would have been unthinkable! Dare to touch him? Not to mention these eunuchs who were neither men nor women, even the delicate palace maids, he had to seriously consider it.
But today, Xiao Han was uncharacteristically standing there as straight as a wooden stake, motionless! This made several of the waiters who searched him feel a little confused, and even the movements of their hands slowed down a bit.
However, they were surprised. The few chamberlains still carried out their tasks seriously. They even checked the boots and finally confirmed that Xiao Han did not carry any murder weapon, and then he was cautiously released.
After passing the search stage, Xiao Han still could not move at will. Instead, he was personally led by the emperor's chamberlain to the open space at the front foot.
On this section of the road, he also saw Duan Lun, Minister of Industry and Industry, coming in a hurry.
Duan Lun, who had just been pardoned, didn't seem surprised that Xiao Han appeared here. He smiled bitterly at him and cast a wishful look. The two of them passed by each other without saying a word from beginning to end.
, even though the two of them were already very close friends.
However, this is no wonder Duan Lun, the disaster this time is really too great! The emperor was furious, the courtiers were panicked, and no one knew who would be the unlucky guy. In this case, the best thing for an official to do is to protect himself wisely.
The right choice.
After passing by Duan Lun, Xiao Han soon came to the open space at the foot of the mountain and saw Li Shimin standing with his hands behind his back.
It was a little different from the angry and thunderous appearance that he had imagined before coming here. At this moment, Li Shimin standing in front of Xiao Han was extremely calm, so calm that it was a bit scary.
"My lord, Xiao Han! I have met His Majesty!" His heart was shaken violently, and Xiao Han stepped forward, clasped his fists, and saluted deeply.
When Li Shimin heard this, he turned around and stared straight at Xiao Han. He neither let him stand nor got angry, but just stared at him straightly.
It was quiet all around, so quiet that even Xiao Han's own breathing could be heard clearly.
"Bata..."
After a while, a drop of sweat slipped from Xiao Han's forehead, flowed down his face, and fell to the ground. Because the surroundings were so quiet, the sound of sweat falling to the ground could be clearly heard.
