Chapter 325

"Wuji!?"

Hearing this, Li Er was shocked.

It was actually him?

When quelling the rebellion, Li Er always had a doubt in his heart.

He knew his son relatively well.

Li Chengqian was mediocre in ability and cowardly, not someone who could commit a rebellion against Heaven.

There must have been someone behind him directing him.

Li Er first thought of Zhangsun Wuji!

Zhangsun Wuji was Li Chengqian's uncle, and they were quite close in daily life.

Moreover.

Zhangsun Wuji had always helped Li Chengqian without reservation.

In Changancheng.

If anyone had the courage and strategy to help Li Chengqian rebel, Zhangsun Wuji was naturally the first choice.

But what Li Tai just said made Li Er suspicious.

Could it be...

that I guessed wrong?

"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty!"

Just as Li Er was pondering, Wei Zheng, Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, and a group of other high-ranking dukes and ministers appeared in the Taiji Hall.

"My beloved ministers!?" Li Er stood up abruptly, walking to them in ecstasy: "Thank Heaven and Earth, you are all still alive!"

The one thing Li Er worried about most was that these ministers in the court would be wiped out 29.

The people before him were all nobles of the imperial court.

They had outstanding abilities and extraordinary character.

If they were missing, it would be equivalent to losing half the sky of the Li Tang world!

In this era.

It was truly too difficult to cultivate an outstanding talent.

Li Er had spent decades to have such a luxurious team.

If something happened to them, it would be equivalent to taking Li Er's old life.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. When the Crown Prince rebelled, the Duke of Zhao, Zhangsun Wuji, took the risk to bring us to his residence for refuge."

"Yes, Your Majesty. The Duke of Zhao is loyal and devoted, truly a rare pillar of the Great Tang!"

"If it weren't for the Duke of Zhao's all-out assistance, I reckon our old bones would have already been gone."

Wei Zheng, Gao Shilian, and others took the initiative to speak well of Zhangsun Wuji.

"What? You were also saved by Wuji?"

Li Er was shocked, and also felt a bit ashamed.

It seems I really wronged him!

Think about it.

Ever since Wuji confronted me on the street last time, he seemed to have stayed behind closed doors.

Could it be that he had no hidden bitterness?

The pain of losing a son in old age, even I could barely bear it, let alone him?

Besides.

The Great Qin indeed insulted our Great Tang too much, and Wuji was only telling the truth.

What did he do wrong?

In the blink of an eye.

A loyal minister full of grievances surfaced in Li Er's mind.

"Where is Wuji?"

After figuring all this out, Li Er raised his head, wanting to find Zhangsun Wuji's figure in the crowd.

But after waiting for a long time, no one answered.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Zhao is currently still at his residence, saying he is ashamed to see Your Majesty, so he did not come with us." Wei Zheng explained for Zhangsun Wuji.

"Someone, quickly summon the Duke of Zhao to see me!" Li Er hurriedly called a eunuch.

But just as the eunuch turned his head, he suddenly said again: "Wait! I will personally go to the Duke Prefecture!"

After speaking, Li Er left the palace in the wind and snow.
