Datang: Hiding private money, exposed by Xiao Sizi

Li Shimin stared at Qin Wenyuan, his teeth almost broken: "Hundreds of people, can't even stop a small thief, what use do I have to you!"

The Qianniu Guards all lowered their heads in shame, not daring to refute, nor could they refute, after all, the facts were right in front of them.

Li Shimin gave Qin Wenyuan a cold look, then flicked his sleeves and left in shame and anger.

Even though he was angry, he did not lose his composure, knowing that he could not stay here for long.

"Walk?"

When Qin Wenyuan saw Li Shimin was about to leave, he smiled inexplicably.

Suddenly, he threw the tree forward with both hands.

Under Qin Wenyuan's terrifying power, the entire tree suddenly flew directly towards Li Shimin.

Seeing this, Qianniuwei in front subconsciously dodged.

Qin Wenyuan stomped his feet hard on the ground and jumped directly onto the big tree. He flew forward with the tree and quickly approached Li Shimin.

"Be careful, Your Majesty!"

A Qianniu Guard noticed Dashu's arrival and shouted hurriedly.

Li Shimin was startled when he heard the voice and stopped subconsciously.

boom!
A tree fell to the ground directly in front of him.

At the same time, a sharp blade rushed out from the dust and stopped steadily on Li Shimin's neck.

When the dust cleared, Li Shimin discovered that the person who held him hostage was the thief who had just been stopped outside by hundreds of Qianniu Guards!

His face was livid, and there was an unresolved annoyance in his eyes: "Thief, if you dare to touch a hair of mine, I will kill all your clans!"

Listening to Li Shimin's threat, Qin Wenyuan sighed helplessly.

He put away his sword, spread his hands and said, "Your Majesty, are you calm now? You are being plotted against, do you know that? Someone wants to get rid of me through you! I am not fake, I am the real Qin Wenyuan!"

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated behind Qin Wenyuan, and the silver moonlight fell on Qin Wenyuan, as if he had been coated with a layer of silver light.

At this time, Qin Wenyuan put away his sword, his face was calm, but his tone was a little helpless. He looked at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, don't you understand yet?"

Li Shimin looked at Qin Wenyuan in front of him in a daze, listening to the familiar voice and looking at the familiar deep eyes. At this moment, his heart suddenly moved: "You...are you really Qin Wenyuan?"

Qin Wenyuan shrugged and said, "If I were a thief, then your majesty, you would have been in trouble just now."

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes moved.

Thinking back to when Qin Wenyuan pointed a knife at him just now, it was true... If Qin Wenyuan in front of him wanted to kill him, he would have no way to hide and would surely die.

so……

Li Shimin frowned slightly, staring at Qin Wenyuan, "Are you serious?"

Qin Wenyuan said helplessly: "Your Majesty, all nations come to the country, this matter...I decide."

Brush it!
When Li Shimin heard Qin Wenyuan's words, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

This was something Li Shimin and Qin Wenyuan discussed privately. It can be said that only Li Shimin and Qin Wenyuan knew about it.

No third person will know about this.

and so……

Li Shimin was completely relieved and walked straight towards Qin Wenyuan.

"Your Majesty, be careful—"

Qianniu Guard hurriedly reminded him.

Li Shimin raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, this is the real Qin Wenyuan, not a thief in disguise."

Qianniu Guard was still worried and stared at Qin Wenyuan with vigilance.

Qin Wenyuan chuckled when he saw this and said, "It seems that if I were fake, you would be able to defend against Wenyuan."

Qianniu Guards: "..."

It hurts, my Lord Qin!
The Qianniu guards were heartbroken, but they were powerless to refute.

After all, the slapping scene happened just now.

Li Shimin saw his guards turned pale after hearing Qin Wenyuan's words, and he said unhappily, "Stop bullying."

Qin Wenyuan shrugged.

Li Shimin walked up to Qin Wenyuan, looked him up and down carefully, then nodded heavily and said, "It's really you! You almost killed me just now, did you know that?"

Qin Wenyuan raised his eyebrows.

At this time, because Li Shimin and Qin Wenyuan recognized each other, the Qianniu Guards stopped fighting, and Sishe and others finally breathed a sigh of relief and ran over.

Seeing the harmonious appearance of Qin Wenyuan and Li Shimin, Xu Gou couldn't help scratching his head and said, "Master, your majesty... is it... true?"

Snake's face is now full of confusion, as if he can't understand it at all.

Qin Wenyuan chuckled and said, "Yes, Your Majesty is true."

"Everything you see now is real... because we have completely left the Illusion Palace."

"What? Leaving the Illusion House?"

The snake was startled.

He immediately looked around and saw a familiar scene. He couldn't help but ask, "Could it be... could it be this place?"

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly: "Yes, this is the Imperial Garden of the Imperial Palace. We have come to the Imperial Palace from the Illusionary Mansion."

"This...how is this possible?"

Snake couldn't believe it at all.

He knew very well how far the Fantasy Palace was from the Imperial Palace.

So they really never thought that they would enter from the main hall of the Fantasy Mansion and run all the way to the Imperial Palace.

Qin Wenyuan saw through the shock in Sishe and the others' hearts, and said with emotion: "Don't mention you, even I was almost deceived. Fortunately, after I saw the moon, I was mentally prepared in advance, so I didn't fall for their trick."

"Otherwise, there will be no end to this night."

"Trick, what trick?" Xu Gou asked hurriedly.

Sishe and others also looked at Qin Wenyuan.

Including Li Shimin, they also looked at Qin Wenyuan.

Li Shimin is now also very confused, how did Qin Wenyuan get to the Imperial Garden?

He has no idea.

So now, except Qin Wenyuan, no one else has any idea what is going on.

Seeing this, Qin Wenyuan sighed softly and said, "All of us... have been used as pawns today!"

"It's just that our chess pieces were on two non-intersecting chessboards. Just when we stepped out of the rockery, the two chessboards suddenly merged together... So, before that, none of us knew the other's situation."

"Because we were not on the same chessboard, even I was almost fooled. Fortunately, I noticed everything in time at the critical moment, which prevented the person behind the scenes from succeeding."

What two chessboards?
Master, what is he talking about?

Xu Gou and the others were confused. They knew every word of the young master, but why did they not understand it when they put them together?
Qin Wenyuan glanced at them, and seeing their confused looks, he shook his head helplessly.

He said, "Don't you understand yet? Everything we experienced in the Illusion Palace was actually... just for one thing."

"What's the matter?" asked the Dog.

Qin Wenyuan's eyes flashed, and he said: "Let us not believe everything we see, the scenery we see, and the people we see!"

"In the Fantasy Mansion, in the Prison of Time, all the fake hills and trees are fake. This is to give us a hint in our minds so that we don't believe in all the visible scenery!"

"And in the stone chamber, the appearance of the fake Zhao Xianye will make us feel terrified and full of suspicion. We will not trust any familiar faces and will only think that they are pretending to hurt us!"

"So... let's go out behind the rockery."

Qin Wenyuan swept his eyes across the faces of Xu Gou and the others, and said calmly: "When we see this Imperial Garden, even if we are somewhat familiar with it, we dare not believe that this is the Imperial Garden, because the experience in the Illusion Mansion has already given us the hint not to believe in the scenery."

"Similarly, after seeing your majesty, just as Sishe said just now, because of the previous example of the fake Zhao Xianye, we will not easily believe whether your majesty is real or fake. Instead, we will preconceivedly think that your majesty is fake..."

"And this is the real purpose of the person behind the scenes. After we enter the palace, we don't believe that we are in the palace, and we don't believe that the Majesty we see is the real Majesty. Instead, we think that the Majesty is fake, so they want to deal with the Majesty!"

When Sishe and others heard Qin Wenyuan's words, their hands and feet suddenly became cold.

Because they found that what Qin Wenyuan said was exactly what they had just thought in their minds.

If they had the chance, they would definitely get rid of Li Shimin as soon as possible.

Because they think...Li Shimin is fake!
And if they really killed Li Shimin...

Snake felt like he had fallen into an icy cave, and he dared not imagine the consequences.

Even the carefree Dog is trembling at this moment.

"And this is on our chessboard... We were deceived, but if Your Majesty had not been deceived, then Your Majesty might have allowed us to calm down."

Qin Wenyuan continued, "So, in order for this trick to succeed, something also happened on your majesty's chessboard."

Qin Wenyuan looked at Li Shimin, and his eyes swept over the Qianniu Guards whose knives were stained with blood. He took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, if my guess is correct, tonight... Your Majesty should have been assassinated, right?"

"what?"

Xu Gou and others were shocked.

The Qianniu Guards also looked at Qin Wenyuan in shock.

Li Shimin's expression flashed for a moment, but he was not surprised. After all, he knew very well how terrifying Qin Wenyuan was.

He nodded slightly.

Qin Wenyuan added: "Moreover... the person who assassinated His Majesty should be..."

With a cold light flashing in his eyes, Qin Wenyuan said coldly: "Wear my appearance?"

Sishe and others were almost shocked to the point of their eyes popping out.

Senniyuu was even more shocked.

They now believe that Qin Wenyuan has nothing to do with the assassination, and Qin Wenyuan has never experienced that incident, so...how did he do it? It's as if he saw everything with his own eyes.

This... is too scary, right?
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said, "Guessed it?"

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly, and said calmly: "From the performance of the Qianniu Guards just now, it is not difficult to guess... Your Majesty was assassinated by someone wearing my appearance, and Your Majesty must have been injured. The Qianniu Guards came here to chase those assassins, and it just so happened that..."

Qin Wenyuan paused for a moment and said, "It just so happened that we happened to be here, so that's why we happened just now."

“This is two chessboards put together!”

"We were psychologically induced to believe that His Majesty was fake! His Majesty was assassinated and believed that we were fake!"

"In this case, it's like enemies meeting each other, and they are extremely jealous of each other. No one will give the other a chance to explain, and no one will explain to the person they think is a thief... So..."

Qin Wenyuan glanced at them and said something that frightened Li Shimin, Sishe and others: "If I hadn't understood everything beforehand, tonight...either your majesty would die, or I would really die."

The Royal Palace, in the Royal Garden.

At this time, the entire imperial garden was extremely quiet.

Everyone stared at Qin Wenyuan with eyes wide open, shocked.
After hearing Qin Wenyuan's analysis, they all fell silent.

But beneath this silent appearance, there is a heart full of turbulent waves.

They really never imagined that there was such a conspiracy behind everything that happened tonight!
Two chess games!

Two chess boards!

Two conspiracies!

Because they were not playing on the same chessboard, neither Qin Wenyuan nor Li Shimin knew the truth behind the game at first.

Finally, at the moment they met, the two conspiracies merged into one.

It almost, really almost turned into a disaster!
If Qin Wenyuan hadn't seen through all these tricks, if Qin Wenyuan hadn't been so powerful that he could have calmed Li Shimin down...

Then tonight, a tragedy really happened.

Either Li Shimin will die at their hands!
Either Sishe and his men would die at the hands of the Qianniu Guards.

There will definitely not be a third outcome!

Thinking of this, Sishe and others, as well as Li Shimin, couldn't help but feel fortunate.

It's really too suspenseful.

It almost led to an unimaginable disaster!
At the same time, they also felt aggrieved, extremely aggrieved!
Especially Li Shimin.

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the ruler of a country, he was being used by a villain and almost killed Qin Wenyuan, whom he cared so much about. How could he not be angry?

He gritted his teeth and looked at Qin Wenyuan, saying, "Qin Wenyuan, who did this?"

Qin Wenyuan said: "Beidou Club, Beichen."

"Beichen?"

Li Shimin's eyes flashed with a chill, and he asked: "Beichen, who is he?"

Qin Wenyuan shook his head.

"So far, I have not encountered Beichen head-on. This Beichen is more cunning and cautious than any enemy I have encountered before. He has a way to control puppets and rarely shows up in person."

"So...if you want to catch him, you have to come up with a perfect and foolproof plan."

It was the first time that Li Shimin saw Qin Wenyuan praise an opponent like this.

No matter who his previous enemies were, Qin Wenyuan always looked indifferent when he heard about them.

But Qin Wenyuan described Beichen as cunning and cautious, which was a great honor in Li Shimin's eyes.

Li Shimin glanced at Qin Zulai and said, "Do you need me to help?"

Qin Wenyuan shook his head: "Not for now, I still need some time to prepare. If I want to attack Beichen... I must catch him in one go! Otherwise, don't attack him, otherwise once he is alarmed, it will be even more difficult to catch him."

Seeing that Qin Wenyuan obviously had an idea in his mind, Li Shimin said no more.

He believed in Qin Wenyuan. No matter how cunning Beichen was, he would never be able to escape from Qin Wenyuan's grasp.
