Li Jing was also a little drunk, and Li Shimin's performance made him gradually relax his vigilance.
He did not promise Zhang Baoxiang and others, but still asked with concern.
"If anything happens, I hope Your Highness will tell us, and we will go through fire and water for Your Highness."
Li Shimin sighed again, making Zhang Baoxiang and others look anxious. Li Shimin was too stubborn.
However.
But you can't disrespect him either.
Li Shimin sighed and said, "During this time, I have been being scolded by my father."
Could it be the Supreme Emperor?
Everyone was stunned.
What does this have to do with Lafayette?!
However.
They all believed that this matter involved the Supreme Emperor, and they did not want to get involved, so those who had been clamoring to take action before now became more honest now.
Hou Junji and Li Daozong did not dare to speak, and Li Jing buried his head even lower.
Only Zhang Baoxiang was still showing off his coquettishness and was about to curse when Li Jing glared at him and immediately looked depressed again.
If he dared to say that, it would be equivalent to insulting Li Shimin.
If it's a conflict between father and son, or a complaint, it doesn't matter.
As a subject, he dared to insult the emperor, which was simply asking for death.
Li Shimin committed the crime of disloyalty and wanted everyone to believe that he was a filial son, so he had to protect the emperor.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Li Shimin sighed.
He needs a response.
Fortunately, Li Daozong said first: "If it were the emperor, we couldn't interfere. But what did the emperor say to you to make you so angry and make you sick?"
Li Shimin said: "Actually, my father didn't say anything too extreme. He didn't insult me. It was just because he said one thing that made me very unhappy."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's curiosity was aroused.
"I wonder what your Highness means by this?!" Li Daozong asked.
Li Shimin was waiting for this and said: "My father said that I was wrong. I was forced by people in the army, so I wanted to make great contributions."
Li Daozong and others were all shocked.
Zhang Baoxiang, Li Jing and others stood up one after another as if they were waking up from a dream.
If the ancestors hadn't said this, they would have cut this guy into pieces long ago.
How could he say this?
Li Shimin seemed unaware and said slowly: "Hey, I argued with him at first, but now that I think about it, it seems that there is really such a thing."
"I want to be the emperor, and all the soldiers have to be promoted, so I asked my father to abdicate. It's right for you to help me."
Li Jing and others were already half awake, but they were all dumbfounded at this moment, not knowing what to do at all.
What kind of disease does this emperor have that makes him say such terrible things?
Li Daozong was also stunned, "Your Highness, are you drunk?"
Li Shimin said: "I didn't drink, I just thought of what my father said. I still have lingering fears."
This made Li Jing and others almost go crazy.
"Your Majesty, we will definitely support you with all our strength."
Li Shimin said: "Yes, why do you have to kneel down and stand up for me? Do you want me to lift you up one by one?!"
After speaking, he stood up and helped everyone up.
With the help of Li Jing and Zhang Baoxiang, Li Shimin grabbed their arms and helped them to their seats.
Li Shimin said slowly and calmly: "I stayed up all night. When you supported me to ascend the throne, you just wanted to make a great contribution. What kind of kindness do I have to you now? Will I let you support me?"
boom!
Zhang Baoxiang and Li Jing knelt on the ground again, both of them were frightened.
Li Shimin's voice was very low. Li Daozong and Hou Junji may not have heard it, but they heard it, as if they were struck by lightning.
Li Jing knelt on his knees and said: "Your Majesty, you are as kind to us as Mount Tai, how can you not treat us favorably?"
Zhang Bao became anxious: "Your Majesty, have you heard anything about it? We are all dead-set."
Li Shimin slapped both of them on the shoulders: "I understand. It seems that I misunderstood and that's why I had such thoughts about you."
"It's all my fault. I actually believed your lies. It seems that these 500,000 troops were indeed killed by the barbarians."
laugh!
Li Jing and Zhang Baoxiang both looked confused.
Zhang Baoxiang, in particular, was struck by a bolt of lightning and his mind went blank.
Li Shimin had no idea what to say next.
Li Shimin helped the two of them sit down, and then they woke up as if from a dream.
He stood up again and bowed again.
Li Shimin said: "I am tired and have given up. I trust you. You will not support others, you will not support others, and you will not support you to replace me."
"Sword Comes"——
After finishing speaking, he said to Li Daozong: "Daozong, you also said back then that you didn't want to take charge of the army in Rencheng, and I can't let you down. It just so happened that Li Jingqi had resigned, and there was a vacancy for the treasurer this time.
It's up to you to fill in tomorrow."
He waved his hand and the matter was over.
He ignored everyone's kneels and walked directly into the hall.
Only Li Jing and the others were left looking confused, bewildered, and at a loss.
Hou Junji frowned and asked: "Are you worried about our army, or do you want to establish a new emperor?!"
Li Daozong looked indifferent and said: "Maybe, hey, everyone knows how you got to this position. You don't have to be surprised that he has such thoughts."
Hou Junji: "..."
Zhang Baoxiang said: "However, how can the emperor trust us? He can't let us die, right?!"
Li Daozong said angrily: "You guys are just a bunch of rabble, aren't I the same?!"
After saying that, he laughed, turned and left.
Everyone was startled and then reacted.
the next day.
Li Shimin went up to the main hall.
After going to court, he commended Li Jing and Zhang Baoxiang and credited them with their great contribution in the extermination of the Turks.
Many people were jealous, and Wei Zheng and others also strongly protested, but Li Shimin insisted on giving him more credit.
Wei Zheng wanted to put himself to death and put himself in an embarrassing dilemma.
Just when the two sides reached a deadlock, Li Jing suddenly knelt down on one knee and handed an invitation to him.
Everyone was stunned.
"Your Majesty, I take my leave." Li Jing said.
Li Shimin said: "No, no, Datang and I both rely on you. If you resign now, do you think the reward I gave you is not enough?!"
