Li Shimin paused and looked at the two people carefully, which made Li Tai, who was about to enter the study, also pause.
Seeing his father's eyes wandering on these two people, Li Tai stepped forward and introduced them.
"Father, this is Jiang Yaqing and Bachelor Jiang who works in the bachelor's house founded by the child."
"His talent and learning are on par with Academician Xiao Deyan."
"I am here to see your Majesty..." Jiang Yaqing bowed respectfully to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin nodded slightly and smiled. "You don't have to be polite, Qingque, what about this one?"
Li Shimin pointed his finger at the eunuch standing shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Yaqing and asked Li Tai.
Li Tai glanced at his father in surprise, but still answered honestly.
"Father, this is the steward of the child's residence, Li Youzhong and Li Daban."
"Well, Li Youzhong..." Li Shimin stroked his long beard and took a deep look at Li Youzhong.
For some reason, Li Shimin's expressionless face and his penetrating gaze made Butler Li feel cold and he quickly lowered his head.
Jiang Yaqing on the side heard Li Shimin's murmur, and his face changed slightly. Fortunately, he had already lowered his head at this time, so Li Shimin didn't notice anything strange.
Li Shimin said nothing more and walked straight into the study, specially letting Li Tai, who was too fat to sit down, sit on the couch.
Li Shimin did not sit down, but walked slowly around the study room, staring intently as if he was hesitant to speak.
Seeing his father's expression, Li Tai couldn't help but asked curiously, "Father, do you have something to tell the child?"
"There is indeed something that I want to talk to you about," Li Shimin took a deep breath and finally made a decision.
"Qingque, there was a fire in the East Palace, and the "Datang Pharmacopoeia" was seriously damaged. Do you know this news?"
Seeing Li Shimin's deep eyes on him, Li Tai's heart skipped a beat, he nodded quickly, stood up and said.
"This kid does know. My father even sent the embroiderer to investigate and found out that the fire was caused by someone using incense."
"Is there any other problem here?"
Li Shimin's eyes scanned the changes in Li Tai's expression. Seeing that his expression didn't seem to be fake, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The problem I feared the most was at least half solved.
"There are indeed some problems. Qingque, do you know that no matter how bad your relationship with Cheng Qian is, you are still brothers after all."
"We should feel the same way and help each other, do you understand?"
After hearing this, Li Tai was unhappy, but he still lowered his head honestly when facing his biological father.
"My dear, I understand. Thank you very much for your father's teaching. My dear, my dear, I will go to the East Palace to visit my elder brother tomorrow."
Li Shimin looked at the Shiro Qingque who always seemed to be so obedient and well-behaved in front of him.
Thinking of the report from the embroiderer, Li Shimin took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice.
"Li Youzhong, come in and see me."
Hearing this, everyone inside and outside the house looked at Li Shimin in astonishment.
Only Zhao Kun strode to the door and tilted his head towards the stunned Li Youzhong.
Li Youzhong's face suddenly turned pale, and he subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Jiang Yaqing beside him.
Jiang Yaqing wanted to bury herself in the soil and did not dare to look at Li Youzhong for fear of being suspected.
"Eunuch Li, Your Majesty will let you in." Zhao Kun saw all the changes in Li Youzhong's expression and shouted coldly.
Li Youzhong walked into the study and saw His Highness the King of Wei looking at him in astonishment.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty's eyes, without any emotion, also fell on him.
At this moment, Li Youzhong walked into the house cautiously and bowed respectfully to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
"This servant is here to see Your Majesty. I wonder what your Majesty's instructions are for summoning this servant..."
"How many dirty things have you done without telling Qingque? Tell me, I'll listen. Don't even think about making excuses."
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Youzhong had a clear understanding, and it seemed as if all the constraints had been lifted.
His Majesty had already concluded the matter, and Li Youzhong bowed to the ground respectfully, lying on the ground towards Li Shimin to plead guilty.
"Your Majesty, this servant has indeed done many things that are sorry for His Highness and His Majesty..."
Li Youzhong's hoarse voice rang out in the study. Of course, he was talking about hearing that the East Palace where His Royal Highness lived was accidentally burned down.
After the "Datang Pharmacopoeia" was damaged, there were rumors starting from that time that the king of Wei must have ordered someone to do this.
As a eunuch who grew up watching the King of Wei, of course he knew very well what kind of good person His Highness the King of Wei was.
He would definitely not do something so degrading and without a moral bottom line, but those rumors made him very unhappy.
He originally invited His Highness the King of Wei to enter the palace and make a statement to His Majesty to prove his innocence, but His Highness the King of Wei believed that those who are clean will be clean themselves.
He believed that his father knew him very well and would never think that he was that kind of person.
"But my servant is dissatisfied. I always feel that those people have ulterior motives. They just want to humiliate His Highness and want to ruin His Highness's reputation."
"So I found a few capable people and asked them to spread rumors and counterattack..."
From the moment he knew that His Majesty did not want to involve His Majesty the King of Wei in this matter, Li Youzhong had already let himself go.

Jiang Yaqing, who was standing outside the house, lowered her head and listened quietly to Li Youzhong's self-defense inside the house.
After hearing that Li Youzhong had taken all the blame for the crime, Jiang Yaqing immediately reacted, feeling both happy and grateful.
Li Shimin stroked his long beard, squinted his eyes, and listened quietly to Li Youzhong's statement.
Wei King Li Tai, who was standing aside, looked at Li Youzhong in shock, never expecting that he had done so many things without telling him.
After Li Youzhong finished explaining the cause and effect of the incident, he lay directly on the ground, as if he was waiting for Li Shimin to make his decision.
Li Shimin turned his head and looked at the dumbfounded Shiro Qingque beside him, and just looked at him without saying a word.
When King Li Tai of Wei saw Li Shimin's calm and frightening gaze, he felt a chill in his heart and quickly fell to the ground.
"Father, my child is not strict with me, please punish him severely..."
Li Shimin didn't speak, he just squinted his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Indoors and outdoors, there was a dead silence. Even Zhao Kun did not dare to breathe at this moment.
He is very clear about His Majesty's thoughts. Ever since the incident in the last years of Wude, His Majesty's most taboo topic is...
Brothers fighting overtly and covertly, and even fighting with real swords and hands, will make His Majesty think of the scene in the past that he least wants to recall.
In other words, what His Majesty is most afraid of is that such a tragedy will happen to his descendants...
