Li Yuan himself said the wrong thing and left a trail of words. Naturally, Li Ji would not miss it and immediately pursued Li Yuan with the thread of his words.
"Father wants to make the Yin family his queen?"
Li Shimin also stood up suddenly and said in a deep voice: "Father, are you serious?"
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Ji and then at Li Shimin, but did not dare to speak.
Even if Li Yuan was the emperor, he would not dare to respond to these words.
If he agrees, three legitimate sons and one legitimate daughter will cause chaos, and the Tang Dynasty will also follow suit.
Pei Ji quickly stood up and smoothed things over, "I'm drunk, I'm drunk. My Lord has eaten a jar of wine and has already started talking drunkenly."
Pei Ji built a step for Li Yuan.
Li Yuan immediately ran down the steps.
Li Yuan scolded with a dark face, "I just got drunk and said something drunk, and you brothers just blew my beard and glared at me. What do you want to do, rebel?"
Li Ji and Li Shimin still stared at Li Yuan when they heard this.
Li Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "Except for your mother, I will not appoint another queen. Are you satisfied? If you are satisfied, get out of here!"
Li Ji immediately prepared to apply oil on the soles of his feet.
His requirements are not high, just deal with the trouble caused by Yin Ashu.
But Li Shimin didn't agree.
Li Shimin stood up straight, stared at Li Yuan and said loudly: "Father, it was his fault that Counselor Du rode in front of the Marquis' Mansion, but it is his father who has the final say on how to punish Counselor Du, not Yin Ashu.
Yin Ah Shu abused lynching and used this incident to drive a wedge between our father and son, causing us to almost misunderstand our father. He should be punished."
Li Yuan said something wrong and it was impossible for him to plead guilty. The blame could only fall on Yin Ashu.
Although the matter of estrangement between the Tian family and his son had nothing to do with him...
Li Ji was a little surprised when he heard what Li Shimin said.
He just wanted to deal with the trouble. Li Shimin not only wanted to deal with the trouble, but also wanted to fight back?
If he steps forward to help Li Shimin now, Li Shimin will have a good chance of killing him.
If he helps Li Yuan, Li Yuan should be able to save Yin Ah Shu.
So who should he help?
Or maybe just oil your feet and leave?
Li Yuan fixed his gaze and stayed on Li Shimin for a long time before looking at Li Ji and asked in a deep voice: "Silang, what do you think?"
When Li Yuan spoke, Li Ji also made a decision in his heart.
He threw Yin Ah Shu out of the house before, and Yin Ah Shu immediately found Li Yuan to accuse him. Now he beats Yin Ah Shu severely, and Yin Ah Shu will definitely find a way to cause trouble for him later.
Although as Yin Ah Shu, the trouble caused to him is not enough to break his muscles and bones, but it will be very disgusting.
Then why not help Li Shimin and deal with Yin Ah Shu first, so that Yin Ah Shu will be afraid and dare not act rashly.
"Father, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. If Yin Ah Shu kills Du Ruhui at the gate of the mansion, my sons and ministers will praise him as a man. If he humiliates Du Ruhui, my sons and ministers will not stand it."
Li Ji had no intention of currying favor with Li Shimin, so he made his words difficult to hear, but both Li Yuan and Li Shimin understood what he meant.
Li Yuan frowned, stared at Li Ji and said, "I remember that you have a close relationship with Yin Jianmen?"
Li Ji asked back, "Can this be a reason for him to escape guilt after alienating our father and son? Wasn't what my father said just now drunken words?"
Li Yuan frowned.
Pei Ji walked out of the long room, walked up to Li Yuan, and said in a low voice with a drunken face: "Yin Jianmen alienated the father and son of the Tian family, so he should be dismissed from office and demoted; Concubine De should be punished for allowing his father to commit murder; His Highness Prince Feng allowed his grandfather to commit murder, so he should be punished.
We should reduce the number of closed households."
Li Yuan's eyes lingered on Li Shimin and Li Ji for a while, and he said deeply: "Just as Supervisor Pei said..."
After saying this, Li Yuan stared at Li Shimin and Li Ji coldly and asked, "Are you satisfied?"
Li Shimin and Li Ji immediately bowed.
"Don't dare!"
Li Yuan snorted coldly: "Go back to the house!"
Li Ji bowed decisively, rubbed oil on his soles and walked out of the hall.
The same is true for Li Shimin.
As soon as Li Jigang walked to the entrance of the palace, he heard Pei Ji say to Li Yuan: "I feel that the Fourth Highness today seems to be brave and resourceful."
Li Ji almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
Has he ever offended Pei Ji?
Did your predecessor ever offend Pei Ji?
It seems like there isn’t one?!
Then why did Pei Ji give him eye drops in front of Li Yuan and Li Shimin?
Does Li Yuanque have a brave and resourceful son?
No shortage.
Would Li Shimin mind having a brave and resourceful younger brother?
mind.
It is a blessing for an ordinary person to have a brave and resourceful legitimate son in his family.
But if the royal family has a brave and resourceful legitimate son, it will be a disaster.
Although the battle for the throne of the Tang Dynasty has not reached a fever pitch, the situation has become clear.
From now on, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty will be either Li Jiancheng or Li Shimin.
Pei Ji suddenly took him out and praised him for being brave and resourceful. Wouldn't that be putting him on the fire?
Can Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin not think too much?
You have to try your best to torment him.
Can he still live a leisurely life?!
Pei Ji, who is so stubborn, will deal with you sooner or later.
Li Ji left the Liangyi Palace full of resentment.
Li Shimin also left Liangyi Palace.
Li Ji had resentment in his stomach, so he was not in the mood to talk to his cheap second brother, the Eternal Emperor, and he had no intention of admiring the elegance of the Eternal Emperor. When Li Shimin left the Liangyi Palace, Li Ji's Baohu had already gone far away.
.
After Li Ji and Li Shimin left, the anger on Li Yuan's face disappeared. He walked back to his throne, his brows furrowed. He glanced at Yin A Shu, who was lying in the hall pretending to be a dead dog, and said indifferently: "
You didn't bother provoking Erlang, but you went to provoke Shiro. You are also a frequent visitor to Shiro's house, and you should know Shiro's temperament.
You brought this severe beating on yourself today.
I said something wrong today, which caused you to be dismissed from office and demoted. I will find a way to compensate you in the future.
You should go back home quickly, rest for a while, and stop provoking Erlang and Shilang."
After Li Yuan said this, he sent someone to carry Yin Asu out of the palace without waiting for Yin Ashu's reply.
As soon as Yin Ah Shu left, Li Yuan sighed towards Pei Ji, "Supervisor Pei, I am embarrassed today. It doesn't matter that I was manipulated by Er Lang, but actually I was manipulated by Si Lang."
Pei Ji sat behind the elder and said with a wry smile: "I am ashamed that I was unable to help my lord, which caused my lord to be embarrassed by the two highnesses."
Li Yuan sighed and said, "I don't blame you. I was quick to speak and said the wrong thing, and those two brats caught the blame."
After pondering for a moment, Li Yuan looked at Pei Ji and said, "Supervisor Pei, when did Silang become smart enough to use my words to take advantage of me?"
Pei Ji hurriedly said: "Maybe it was the thunder from the sky that gave His Highness the wisdom, or maybe it was His Highness hiding his clumsiness."
Li Yuan nodded doubtfully and said: "In this case, he should understand that I just called Yin Ah Shu the head of the country. It was just a slip of the tongue and it didn't count at all. Why did he still speak for Erlang?
I remember that he was on good terms with the prince, and Yin Ashu was the prince’s servant, and often traveled between the East Palace and Wude Hall. Logically speaking, he should have spoken for Yin Asu just now.”
Pei Ji pondered and said, "Perhaps Yin Ashu offended His Highness the Fourth Highness when he went to the Wude Palace. Otherwise, His Highness would not have had the Crown Prince thrown out without caring about the Crown Prince's face."
Li Yuan nodded thoughtfully, "Yin Ah Shu must have offended Si Lang, otherwise Si Lang wouldn't have been so cruel."
Pei Ji smiled cheerfully and said: "Your Majesty wants to use Yin Ashu's matter to beat His Highness Second Highness. It's not easy to go out and beat Yin Ashu. His Highness Fourth Highness will do it for you. Your Majesty should be happy."
Li Yuan pointed at Pei Ji and said, dumbfounded: "You, you, you are really a roundworm in my stomach."
Li Yuan sat up slightly and said frankly: "When Silang taught Yin Ah Shu just now, I did indulge him. I have met Du Ruhui. He is a rare talent. It is a great thing for me to be able to use it in the Tang Dynasty."
Fortunately.
Yin Ah Shu, relying on Concubine Yin's support, abused lynching and almost killed one of the most talented people in the Tang Dynasty. He should be taught a lesson."
When Pei Ji heard this, he immediately said: "Even if Yin Ah Shu has extraordinary means, he will not be able to escape the punishment of the Lord."
Li Yuan smiled and nodded, smiling. The smile on Li Yuan's face faded and he said: "Prince Pei, do you think Silang has given up on the crown prince and gone to help Erlang?"
Pei Ji pretended to be mute.
Li Yuan stared at Pei Ji and said, "Don't pretend to be confused with me. If you hadn't seen some clues, you wouldn't have praised Silang for being brave and resourceful in front of Erlang and I just now.
Shiro did show some cleverness today, but it's not enough to make you praise him."
Li Yuan has seen countless wise people, and the same is true for Pei Ji.
Although Li Ji's performance today had some bright spots, it was not to the point where Li Yuan and Pei Ji were stunned.
Pei Ji knew that Li Yuan already had the answer in his mind, so he laughed and said: "Isn't it because the Lord is unhappy, so I'm causing trouble for them."
Li Yuan glanced at Pei Ji and said angrily: "If you don't want to say it, I will say it for you. I punished Si Lang before, but the prince did not come forward to intercede. It should be because of this incident that there was a rift between Si Lang and the prince.
The reason why Shiro spoke for Erlang today was probably to express his dissatisfaction to the prince, not to help Erlang."
Pei Ji suddenly interrupted, "From the moment His Highness the Second Prince took Yu Wenxin into his account, it was impossible for His Highness the Fourth Prince to help him anymore."
Li Yuan nodded in agreement.
Yu Wenxin, that was the person who almost killed Shiro.
He almost killed Yu Wenxin because of this matter, but it was Li Gang who interceded and he felt sorry for Dou Dan's son-in-law, so he let Yu Wenxin go.
But the feud between Shiro and Yu Wenxin was finally settled.
Erlang brought Shiro's enemies into his account, so Shiro would naturally not help Erlang.
"Since Silang won't help Erlang, why do you still praise Silang for being brave and resourceful?"
Li Yuan stared at Pei Ji and asked.
Pei Ji smiled and said: "Your Highness, if you are brave and resourceful, you will be able to take on big responsibilities and share your worries with the leader."
Pei Ji stopped and didn't say much, but Li Yuan already understood what Pei Ji meant.
The reason why he used Yin Ah Shu's incident to attack Li Shimin today was because Li Shimin's limelight had reached a point where even the prince could not suppress him, and even he felt threatened.
The prince couldn't suppress Li Shimin, and it was a bit embarrassing for him to go into battle shirtless. Li Ji and the prince were now on the verge of splitting, and Li Ji showed some wisdom.
Then he can completely support Li Ji and ask Li Ji to help him check and balance Li Shimin.
Although it may not be effective, it can help him relieve a lot of pressure.
