Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

"Your Majesty, I just recognized the wrong person. There is no murderer here."

Watanabe Sora's face was as pale as paper, his body was shaking like a sieve, and blood was pouring out of his hands with severed fingers, dripping onto the ground.

He suppressed his inner panic and fear and tried to make his voice sound calmer.

"Admit your mistake?"

Li Chengqian raised his chin slightly, his eyes filled with cold sarcasm and disdain.

"Hmph, you dare to tell such a clumsy lie in front of me."

"You admitted your mistake, but I won't admit my mistake."

"Grand Master Qi, Commander Wei, please come forward and take a closer look. Is this the Japanese who is trying to commit violence against me and break my legs?"

Mr. Qi coughed lightly and walked forward slowly with square steps.

He looked at Watanabe Sora carefully for a moment.

He said firmly: "Your Majesty, I see this man is indeed the murderer!"

Wei Biwu walked down slowly with his head held high and eyes wide open.

He glanced at Watanabe Sora.

Just say it directly.

"Your Majesty! I can guarantee with my life that this is the man!"

"That day in the East Market, I saw him with my own eyes. His face and figure are deeply imprinted in my mind. There is no way I could have mistaken him!"

"At that time, I swore an oath to bring this lunatic to justice."

"I never thought that this thief would fall into the trap today. It really is like the vast net of heaven, which can catch anything!"

"Such traitors dared to offend Your Majesty's majesty. Their crimes are unforgivable and they should be punished with the most severe penalties to serve as a warning to others!"

After saying that, he glared at Watanabe Sora fiercely.

When the envoys from other countries witnessed this scene, they all looked at each other in amazement.

Some envoys whispered to each other, "These Japanese people must be so bold as to stir up trouble in the Tang Dynasty and do such a shocking thing."

Some envoys raised their lips slightly, a glint of gloating in their eyes: "Hehe, now we're going to have some fun. I'm afraid Japan will be reduced to ashes in the wrath of the Tang Dynasty this time, and suffer the consequences of its own actions."

At this time, Matsushita Arita was already stunned, with a blank look in his eyes.

His mind was in a mess and he couldn't figure out why things took a turn for the worse in such a short time.

Everything was going smoothly just now, and His Majesty was quite kind to me. How could the situation change so suddenly in the blink of an eye, and His Majesty was personally tracking down the murderer?

Moreover, the murderer's spearhead was inexplicably directed at his own side.

Wasn’t it Watanabe Sora who was looking for the murderer just now?

He is now filled with regret.

His legs were weak and he could hardly stand, but he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart and wanted to plead with His Majesty.

"Your Majesty..."

But just as he uttered a word with difficulty, Li Chengqian's eyes shot straight at him, staring at him intently, forcing him to swallow back the rest of his words.

Li Chengqian didn't even bother to look at him. With a stern expression, he ordered Zhang Xianhuai, "Xianhuai, drag this man away and cut off his tongue. Arrest all the Japanese in Chang'an tonight. Don't let any of them go."

"How can I allow others to trample on my great Tang Dynasty at will? I will not allow anyone to threaten my safety."

"Anyone who offends the majesty of the Tang Dynasty will pay a heavy price."

Every word in these words was as precious as pearls, and each word was full of the majesty of the emperor, which made everyone present silent.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Xianhuai accepted the order and raised his hand slightly.

A group of well-trained Jinyiwei quickly poured out from both sides of the hall.

They moved in unison, took a few steps forward and lifted up Matsushita Arita, Watanabe Sora and other Japanese people.

Matsushita Arita struggled desperately, trying to break free from the Jinyiwei's restraints.

His weak strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree in front of the Jinyiwei.

Matsushita Arita could only utter a few weak cries in despair: "Your Majesty, spare me, Your Majesty, spare me..."

The voice echoed in the silent hall, sounding particularly miserable, but failed to arouse anyone's sympathy.

As the Jinyiwei dragged the Japanese out of the hall, the two Jinyiwei who were left behind quickly took out a rag, wiped the bloodstains on the ground clean, and then left quietly.

The hall fell into deathly silence in an instant.

Li Chengqian slowly glanced at the crowd, and a faint smile returned to his face.

The smile didn't reach his eyes, making it hard to tell what he was really thinking.

"Everyone, there's no need to be so nervous. Today is the New Year's Day celebration, and it should be a day of joy and peace."

"I believe that the envoys from all countries have seen everything Japan has done, and they see it clearly."

As he spoke, he raised his hands slightly and made a soothing gesture.

"I hope that envoys from all other countries will learn from this and avoid repeating Japan's mistakes."

"Befriend the Tang Dynasty and share the blessings of a peaceful and prosperous era"

"To be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty will surely lead to eternal damnation."

"I hope you will take care of yourself."

Upon hearing this, the envoys from various countries stood up in fear and trepidation and saluted Li Chengqian to express their loyalty.

An envoy from the Western Regions was the first to speak: "Your Majesty is wise and wise, and what you said is absolutely true."

"We are blessed by the grace of the Tang Dynasty and are able to live and work in peace and contentment. We will faithfully follow Your Majesty's instructions and will never dare to have the slightest second thought."

The other envoys also echoed his words, and for a while, the hall was filled with sounds of flattery.

Li Chengqian nodded slightly, seeming quite satisfied with everyone's expressions.

"How dare Japan dare to offend the majesty of the Tang Dynasty? This is truly a heinous crime. You are all vassal states of the Tang Dynasty and should help us solve our problems."

"I will now give you a chance to help me conquer Japan."

"Whoever can conquer Japan first will be granted a fifth-rank official position in the Tang Dynasty, bringing him even greater glory."

When these words were spoken, the envoys from various countries all looked astonished, and then a fiery light gradually flashed in their eyes.

A fifth-rank official! And an official of the Tang Dynasty!

This is undoubtedly a very tempting and huge reward for them.

A small country like Japan could actually be exchanged for a fifth-rank official position in the Tang Dynasty? This made them all feel a little unbelievable.

"Your Majesty, is this true?"

A Seljuq envoy could not contain his excitement and stepped forward first to ask.

His eyes were wide, full of anticipation and desire.

"You have no joke!"

Li Chengqian looked at everyone with a firm gaze.

As soon as these four words were spoken, the hall suddenly became noisy. The envoys from various countries could no longer contain their excitement and began to whisper to each other.

Some envoys were eager to try.

Some envoys were secretly thinking about how to unite with other countries, integrate the forces of all parties, and increase their chances of victory.

After the ceremony, Li Chengqian brought Li Shimin to the harem quietly.

Because I promised Xiao Sizi and A Yuan that I would take them to see Aye today during the New Year.

Li Chengqian has always been a man of his word, so he naturally cannot go back on his word.

Heavy snow kept falling on the two of them.

Fortunately, they were wearing brocade robes, which could protect them from the heavy snow.

In the harem, two little girls were crying and making a fuss today, hoping that their brother the emperor would come to fulfill his promise, but there was no sign of him.

It was all thanks to Li Zhi's patient coaxing. He would tell them interesting stories and take out exquisite snacks to make them happy.

But the grievance and loss in the hearts of the two little girls could not be dispelled so easily. They even decided to go directly to the ceremony to find the emperor and ask for clarification.

But Li Zhi hurriedly dissuaded them, telling them that his royal brother had something extremely important to do and must not be disturbed at this moment.

Instead of comforting them, these words made them feel even more aggrieved and sad. They cried even harder, and Li Zhi was completely exhausted.

Only then did he coax the two of them into peace.

After being coaxed, he didn't want to do anything anymore and went back to rest early.

After crying, the two little girls fell into a sweet dream, perhaps because they were too tired.

There were still traces of tears on their little faces, and they sobbed from time to time in their sleep. Their appearance made people feel pity for them.
