Chapter 0419 Elements of lying: mixed truth and falsehood
Man Tang Hong Chapter 0419 Elements of lying: mixed truth and falsehood
Li Yuan suddenly stood up and said in disbelief: "Is this true?"
The right general of Zuo Qianniu Beishen Mansion nodded without hesitation: "Seriously!"
After speaking, he seemed to feel that two words were not enough to win Li Yuan's trust, so he added: "Everything I said about Wu Wei has been recorded. If the saint doesn't believe it, he can send someone to take a look at Wu Wei's records."
Li Yuan almost didn't think twice before he adopted the advice of the right general of Zuo Qianniu Beishen Mansion, and his eyes fell on Liu Jun in an instant.
Liu Jun understood, bowed and walked backwards out of Liangyi Hall.
After Liu Jun left Liangyi Hall, Li Yuan's eyes fell on Li Yuanji almost without hesitation. His eyes were full of shock and astonishment, and his face was full of disbelief.
In order to maintain his character, Li Yuanji gave Li Yuan a look of grief and anger on his face, but he was quite depressed in his heart.
If he had known that Li Yuan didn't believe what he said, he would never tell lies to Li Yuan.
In that case, Li Yuan would not have mobilized so many troops.
Just to confirm whether he was studying, Li Yuan sent a general from the Qianniu Guard to check. He actually also sent a confidant.
Those who knew knew that Li Yuan was checking whether he had really studied. Those who didn't knew thought that something big happened in Liangyi Palace.
Fortunately, he has a habit of making mistakes when telling lies.
When he is telling lies, he will subconsciously search through his daily actions to see if there is anything that matches his name.
If so, he would tell lies without hesitation.
In this way, even if someone sees through that he is lying, he will have enough reasons and excuses to argue with them.
So he was not afraid of Li Yuan going to investigate.
When he said that he had fallen in love with reading recently, he subconsciously thought of his usual scene of reviewing documents in the pavilion outside the monastery and reading idle books to pass the time.
And Li Yuan just found this, which happened to match the lies he told.
As for what book he was reading, he was sure that there would be absolutely no record in Wu Wei's notebook.
Because the people of the military guard usually spied on him and took notes, it was already an offense.
If you spy on what he eats, drinks, and watches, that would not only be offensive, it would be courting death.
He believed that the people trained by Li Shentong would definitely know what could be recorded and what could not be recorded.
Therefore, in the end, Li Yuan's investigation would only find out that he was actually reading, and that he had worked hard to read.
As for what books he was reading, Li Yuan could never find out.
That's why he dared to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and show Li Yuan's expression.
"Yuanji, please don't blame me as a father. I really can't believe that you, who have always disliked studying, have actually started studying and have worked so hard."
Li Yuan saw the anger on his son's face and immediately found a reason for himself.
Li Yuanji glared at Li Yuan and said angrily: "If you don't believe me, you just can't believe me. What's the use of talking so much."
Li Yuan opened his mouth, just about to talk, and just about to say a few words to comfort Li Yuanji.
Li Yuanji said angrily: "I thought I would be admired by my father because I was obsessed with learning, but I didn't expect that what I got in the end was distrust."
"Snapped!"
Li Yuanji pounded the table angrily and shouted: "It's okay if you don't practice this knowledge."
When Li Yuan heard this, he panicked.
My son finally started to learn well. If he changed back to his previous appearance because of him, then he would be guilty of a big crime.
Li Yuan said hurriedly: "Yuanji, don't act out of emotion. It's not that I can't trust you as a father, but that I'm a father... just..."

Li Yuan 'just' took a while before he thought of a lame excuse.
"My father just wanted to know what kind of books you like to read, so I sent someone to investigate. Didn't you say that you have read all the books in your house and wanted to ask my father for some books.
If my father doesn’t know clearly, how can he send someone to search for your favorite books?”
Li Yuanji tried his best to open his eyes wider to show that he was even angrier.
But my heart was dripping with depression.
Li Yuan, Li Yuan, do you think I look like a three-year-old child?
You sent people to check whether I was really studying at home without concealing it. Later, you said it was to find out what books I like to read.
The preface and subtext of your words are completely inconsistent. I guess even a three-year-old child may not be able to deceive you.
How did you have the nerve to say it?
Just when Li Yuanji was slandering Li Yuan in his heart and was about to give Li Yuan another look, Liu Jun came back in a hurry.
After entering the Liangyi Hall, he walked quietly to Li Yuan's dragon eucalyptus without saying a word, put down a scroll-like document, and stepped back.
"Yuanji, it's not that I can't trust you, it's that I really want to know what books you like to read."
While speaking soothing words, Li Yuan picked up the documents on the dragon's eucalyptus and browsed them quickly.
Li Yuanji's mouth twitched.
Li Yuan This is a typical thief shouting to catch the thief.
Obviously I didn't believe it from beginning to end, there were obviously flaws everywhere, but I was so stubborn.
Li Yuanji didn't know how to complain about Li Yuan. He could only stare at Li Yuan fiercely and remain silent.
After Li Yuan quickly browsed the documents, his face became happy at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. He was unprecedentedly happy.
He looked at Li Yuanji and said excitedly: "You are really studying at home, and you are really studying seven or eight out of ten days. You really like reading, and you really work hard for it."
Li Yuanji laughed in his heart, but said sarcastically: "Didn't you say you were checking what books I like to read? How come after you found out, what you are most concerned about is whether I am reading or not."
Li Yuanji stood up abruptly, as if he was about to act rude, "You just can't believe me. Your words are inconsistent with the preface and the back, and are full of flaws. Do you think I can't tell whether one of your words is true and which one is false?
?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! You think I am a three-year-old child."
"Hahaha……"
Li Yuan seemed to not feel that Li Yuanji was angry and laughed.
The more you smile, the happier you become.
The Liangyi Hall was filled with Li Yuan's laughter, and his slightly demonic laughter echoed everywhere.
Li Yuanji knew why Li Yuan was laughing, and he also understood how happy Li Yuan, an old father, would be when he saw his son suddenly become more motivated.
However, understanding is understanding.
The happier Li Yuan smiles, the unhappy he becomes.
He even glared at Li Yuan for blowing his belly, but Li Yuan still smiled, which meant that Li Yuan didn't care about him blowing his beard and staring at him.
Not only that, Li Yuan's happiness is still based on his unhappiness.
With his personality, can this be tolerated?
Li Yuanji immediately prepared to show off to Li Yuan.
But before he could speak or make any move, he heard Li Yuan smile heartily and said: "You know that you are making progress, that you know that you are studying and learning, and you are very happy to be a father."
At this point, without waiting for Li Yuanji to speak, he said carelessly: "Don't worry about the flaws in my father's words. No matter what I say, my father is still your father, even if he teases you with his words,
You can't disrespect your father either.
Otherwise, it is a violation of filial piety."
When Li Yuanji heard this, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Hello Li Yuan, are you speaking in human language?
If you can't convince others with your reasoning, just stop talking and just use your righteousness to suppress others.
I know I am a human being, but you are...woof!
"Come here, come to my father and let him take a good look at whether he has lost weight or gained weight recently."
Li Yuan didn't know what Li Yuanji was thinking, so he smiled like a father and called Li Yuanji over.
Li Yuanji stood there without moving, and just said coldly, "My good father, I have been crowned and grown up. Do you want me to come to your knees like my younger brothers and sisters?"
Not to mention that his body is already an adult, even if he is not an adult, it is impossible for him to run up to Li Yuan and have Li Yuan touch his head and squeeze his face to show his closeness.
If this really happened, he would be so sick that he would die from diaphragm.
He is not Li Shimin, and he can't help but pretend to be a child in front of Li Yuan.
When Li Yuan heard this, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Yes, yes, you have been crowned, you have grown up, and you are already a man.
You can no longer think about holding my thigh and letting me hug you like you did when you were a child."
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes and cursed in his heart.
I think you've lost your mind.
I am such a big person standing in front of you, you can't tell whether I am an adult or a child?
"Ahem, my father was a little excited when he saw your progress, so he forgot that you were an adult."
Li Yuan seemed to have guessed what Li Yuanji was thinking and explained cheerfully.
After explaining, Da Ma Jin Dao sat down on the couch again, regaining his true character as an emperor and adding a touch of majesty.
"Yuanji, as compensation for my father teasing you, just ask, and my father will give you whatever you want."
After Li Yuan regained his status as emperor, his mood was no longer so ups and downs, but he was very calm.
He had a calm smile on his face and spoke in an unquestionable tone.
Li Yuanji breathed a sigh of relief.
After struggling for so long, he finally got the words he wanted. It was not easy.
For example, Li Yuan's words, "Just ask and I'll give you whatever you want." To civil and military officials, it was just a joke, and whoever took it seriously would be doomed.
But to him, it was the truth.
It's just that you can't speak randomly and whimsically.
For example, asking Li Yuan to become the crown prince, or asking Li Yuan to harm Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.
It’s impossible even to think about such a thing, let alone say it.
So just be realistic.
He was not greedy, nor did he think of making any excessive demands.
According to the image he has just established of being fond of reading, he would just want rare treasures such as calligraphy and painting.
If you ask for anything else, it will easily destroy the image you have just established in front of Li Yuan, and it will also be easy for Li Yuan to see the flaws.
