Chapter 43: Li Shimin's Wish
In the dark night sky, stars are dotted and flickering.
Under the night sky, a huge city is located on this land. It is majestic, covering an area of hundreds of square kilometers, with a wall that is extremely high, nearly three feet long, and is crawling on the ground like a giant beast, as if it wants to devour sentient beings.
This is Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. It is extremely magnificent, with city palaces and palaces, pavilions and courtyards, and houses lined up.
Originally, as the capital of a country, Chang'an should be like a city that never sleeps. Even at night, it is brightly lit, full of traffic and silhouette.
Unfortunately, something big happened in Chang'an yesterday, which made Chang'an, which should have been bustling and prosperous, suddenly become like a ghost town. Not to mention those playboys who often go out to play at night, even the restaurants and inns closed their doors and did not dare to make loud noises.
On this street, there are teams of Jinwu Guards wearing waists and knives, holding spears, patrolling the streets with their eyes like eagles, with murderous aura in their eyes, which seems to have a solemn aura in the whole Chang'an.
However, there are also some palaces that are different from the streets, such as the Qin Palace located not far from the imperial palace. At this time, the entire Qin Palace was guarded by thousands of elite soldiers, and the lights inside were brightly lit, illuminating the surroundings of the Qin Palace as if they were daytime. There were faint sounds of silk and bamboo from inside, which were like a different world outside.
It was not until very late that I saw a tall man, wearing armor, or middle-aged man in Confucian uniform, walking out of it with laughter.
"Haha, OK, come on, let's have another drink..."
"Be careful at your feet!"
"Farting, Yu Wenshiji, I'm not drunk, it's okay to drink three big bowls!"
"Cheng Zhijie, we will fight again tomorrow!"
Amid the joy and intoxication, these people were served onto the gorgeous and exquisite carriages, and were escorted away by teams of elite soldiers.
In the palace of the Qin King's Mansion, Li Shimin's face was flushed and his eyes were a little confused. Two pretty maids helped him into the backyard.
"Oh, second brother, why are you drinking like this?!" As soon as he stepped into the inner courtyard, a beautiful woman wearing a lilac dress with a thin waist and a cloud belt, with a gorgeous face, a pair of charming eyes, and awe-inspiring mighty beauty, walked up. Seeing Li Shimin's appearance, she couldn't help but get a little angry and a little distressed. She stretched out her white wrist to support him, and then said to the maid who was serving beside her, "Why don't you go and get some hot water to wash the prince, and let the kitchen immediately get a bowl of sober soup."
"Himmer...No need, Guanyin maid..." Li Shimin smiled with a drunken face and walked towards the room with the beautiful woman. "I...I am happy today. From tomorrow, my wish will finally be fulfilled. Hehe, Guanyin maid, do you know that I will be the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty tomorrow. The real crown prince of the Tang Dynasty is no longer the King of Qin. I, I have been waiting for this day for too long!"
"Second brother, you are drunk!" Seeing Li Shimin's appearance, Changsun Wugui frowned slightly, and held his heavy body into the room. While supporting him, he asked the maid to help remove the ward of Li Shimin.
"I, I am not drunk!" Li Shimin pulled apart his body's armor, then looked at Changsun Wugui with a confused look, and smiled, "Guanyin maid, thank you for your hard work over the years. When I become the crown prince tomorrow, you will be the crown prince's concubine of the Tang Dynasty... When I ascend the throne, you will become the most noble woman in the Tang Dynasty."
Listening to Li Shimin's sweet words, the charm in Changsun Wugu's eyes seemed to turn into water, and no woman could withstand such a promise.
As Li Shimin's wife, Changsun Wugui can be said to be one of the people who know Li Shimin the best in the world. Although he is cruel and ruthless, he can kill his brother and imprison his biological father for the sake of the throne, and may be despised by others in the future, Li Shimin also has his own tenderness. He knows sweet words and shares the glory he has gained with himself. What else can a husband like this?
"Second brother..." Changsun Wugui's pretty face turned red, his eyes were full of charm, and his hands climbed onto Li Shimin's neck.
"Hehe, Guanyin maid, you are so beautiful!" Looking at Changsun Wugui in his arms, Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he hugged his head suddenly...
The maid in the room blushed and retreated from the room and closed the door. But even so, she could still hear the moans coming from inside.

Some people sing and dance, some people sing drunk, some people sing, some people sing in the flowers, and some people need to patrol all night and be on duty!
On the city wall, a bonfire will illuminate the surroundings not far away, which will also make the soldiers guarding the city wall feel more warm in the darkness.
"Well... During the day, I kept listening to the sound of the troops outside, but I didn't sleep well. Now I'm a little sleepy." A soldier in his hand, wearing cloth armor, stood by the female wall. Looking at the dark earth outside, he couldn't help but yawn.
"Who said no? I've been so nervous these two days. I heard that at least thousands of people died in Xuanwu Gate yesterday!" Another soldier next to me looked around him first, and did not find any patrol soldiers, then he said in a low voice.
"Forget it, those things that are not about us, Ronaldo, don't talk too much, be careful not to be safe!" Hearing another person mentioning what happened yesterday, the first soldier who spoke suddenly changed his face and whispered.
"That's right, thank you for reminding me by Brother Wang." The soldier also changed his expression and quickly silenced, and then smiled, "Since Brother Wang is sleepy, then you can lean against him and rest for a while. When the inspection arrives, I will call you again!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not polite, I'm here to help Brother Li." Hearing the soldier surnamed Li, the soldier surnamed Wang thought for a moment, and then smiled.
"Brother Wang, you are compatriots... Hey, Brother Wang, what do you think is that?" The soldier named Li was about to be polite when he suddenly saw countless lights appearing in the distance, connecting them.
"Strange, why did so many lights suddenly appear? Could it be that what happened to the people in the surrounding counties?" The soldier named Wang turned his head when he heard the words of the soldier named Li, and indeed saw countless fire lights slowly coming towards Chang'an in the distance.
"No!" At this time, Li, the surname on the side, was suddenly shocked, "This is not what the people do, it is someone who wants to attack at night!"
"Night attack? Brother Li was joking. This place is Chang'an, who can..."
"Night attack! Someone attacked at night, report to the general quickly!" Before the soldiers named Wang finished speaking, suddenly there was a sound of gold sounding under the night sky, and then the whole Chang'an suddenly started to clamor...
