Chapter 18 Lives in Danger
When Li Ren was escorted to the palace, what he saw was a scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
I saw that Li Shimin had a black face, carrying a steel knife, and was angry. bluntly said that he wanted to hack to death the daring slave.
The eldest grandson queen is like an old hen guarding her cubs, tightly protecting her two children behind her. Confront Li Shimin.
The ministers of civil and military affairs seem to be the air, and they don't even dare to come out of the atmosphere.
"Guanyin, get out of the way, I have to kill them today." Li Shimin grabbed the steel knife tightly, and the green tendons in his hands burst out.
Empress Changsun didn't let it go at all, and said with reason: "No, they are still minors and belong to the jurisdiction of concubines." Even discipline is a matter for concubines, and it is not His Majesty's turn to do it himself. β
"They are bold enough to usurp and steal jade seals and tiger talismans. If they are not punished, where is the law of the land? β
"They are all three or four-year-old children, how can they know what jade seals and tiger talismans are! Punish me if you want to. β
Empress Changsun held the two children in her arms. Will his own back face Li Shimin. The son and the child slave had long since cried into tears, and kept sobbing in the queen's arms.
When Li Ren saw this scene, his face turned green, Li Shimin wanted to hack his child to death, is this still necessary?
If only he knew that the damn jade seal and tiger talisman were in his hands. Aren't you going to cut yourself with a thousand knives?
Xin'er, Xin'er, you have made your uncle miserable.
Li Ren shivered instantly, his legs were weak, and he couldn't stand.
But Li Ren didn't know that Li Shimin and Empress Eldest Sun were making a show for everyone.
No matter what, the son-in-law and the childish slave are also Li Shimin's biological flesh and blood. Could he really bear to cut them down with his own hands?
What's more, this matter is obviously caused by a few bear children. There is no crime of conspiracy to rebel at all. Where is the use of killing the prince and princess to atone for the sins.
However, after all, this matter involves jade seals and tiger talismans. If Li Shimin didn't make a fury and murderous behavior, wouldn't it make the world lose its awe of the royal family?
Therefore, at this time, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun only had to act for the civil and military officials. Then wait for the civil and military officials to come up and intercede. When the time comes, get off the donkey down the slope and punish the small ones. And that was the end of the matter.
Of course, the ministers of civil and military affairs knew Li Shimin's thoughts. Immediately, they knelt down and pleaded: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Jin and His Royal Highness the Princess are just young and ignorant. Spare them. β
"Your Majesty, the children of my family are also so naughty in this matter, just beat it, there is no need to use a knife."
"Your Majesty, there are many strange things about this matter, the two Highnesses must be bewitched, and the top priority now is to find out the people behind the scenes. It's not a punishment for the two highnesses. β
"yes, yes, it's important to find out who is behind it."
β¦β¦
Li Shimin's face softened slightly, and he threw the steel knife aside. sat on the chair, waved his hand, and motioned for Wang De to bring Li Ren and Li Xin'er up.
Xin'er saw the emperor trying to kill her two friends outside. I was so frightened that I couldn't cry.
Originally, Xin'er's plan was to dump the black pot on Li Ren and the childish slave. Stay out with your son.
But all this is when the punishment is a beating, and she will do it.
Now that the emperor has used the knife, this is a matter of losing her life, and she can't do anything to frame her partner.
As soon as she entered the hall, Xin'er knelt on the ground with a thud and wailed, "Wow...... Your Majesty, don't kill your son-in-law and childish slaves, woo...... They all listened to Xin'er before stealing the dowry. It's none of their business! Wow woo woo ......"
The son saw that the little sister was defending her sins. I also cried in the last period: "Father...... Woo...... The father is unreasonable! What's wrong with Xin'er? We open a restaurant to make money, can't we make a good dress for the queen mother? The queen mother has not had any new clothes to wear for several years. There are a lot of holes in the clothes. Is it wrong for me and Brother Jiu to give away a piece of clothing after giving off our mother? β
Li Shimin listened to his daughter's words, and his heart instantly had mixed feelings, which was very unpleasant.
Yes, sons, they are right, but it is themselves who are wrong.
In vain, he is the saint of today, nominally rich from all over the world, and the most noble person in the world. But he didn't care about his knotted wife.
His wife in order to support his own government. Budget wisely every day. Spun and weave cloth every day, and wear patched clothes. Even eating a meal of meat has to be budgeted.
Where is this the life of a queen today!
The eldest grandson Wuji also had slightly red tears, looked at his sister-in-law, and couldn't help muttering: "Why are you so troubled?" If you're short of money, just tell me. Could it be that I, who is an older brother, can still lack your expenses? β
"Poof......" Empress Eldest Sun was moved and funny for a while, and couldn't help but laugh: "Big brother, don't be funny, you don't really think that I live such a life because I am short of money, right?" No matter how I say that I am also the queen, no matter how much Your Majesty is short of money, it will not lack my expenses. β
immediately wiped away her son's tears, and explained to her with a doting face: "Good son, the queen mother doesn't wear new clothes not because of lack of money, but because she wants to set an example for my Datang woman." Don't mess around in the future. β
The word nonsense instantly defined the accident, indicating that the incident was just a few children's play.
At the same time, he also warned the minister not to go online and find trouble for his children.
The ministers, all of whom were human spirits, began to change the subject.
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "The queen is happy." Princess Jinyang and His Royal Highness King Jin have such filial piety at such a young age, and the queen will definitely be blessed in the future. What is the best way for raising children, but don't hide it, you must teach my wife. β
"Yes, yes, how did you educate the children, Queen Mother, how can you be so well-behaved and sensible! In the future, you can teach our family that mouth. β
"It's really rare for such a naΓ―ve child to have such filial piety!"
"The more I look at Princess Jinyang, the more I like it, how do you say the queen educated such a caring little person?"
β¦β¦
When this area was peaceful and everyone was vying to congratulate the queen, Wei Gangjing came out to spoil the atmosphere.
He said with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter should not be taken lightly. It's good to take a closer look. β
Before Li Shimin could speak, Empress Eldest Sun opened her eyes slightly, and asked with a hint of anger: "What? Did Lord Wei still think that my child would rebel? β
"The queen mother misunderstood, the two highnesses are innocent, how can they behave so wildly? It's just that there are two more criminals in this case. I'm afraid that there is a conspiracy behind this matter. Please Your Majesty investigate clearly and take precautions as soon as possible. β
Hiss...... That's a good point. Li Shimin's heart moved.
Li Xin'er, this little girl, must have no problem, but I am afraid that Li Ren will have any disobedience.
Anyway, he is also the nephew of the King of the River, as long as he can convince the King of the River to intervene. It is not impossible to rebel at a time when the locust plague broke out and the society was unstable.
In an instant, Li Shimin's heart lifted. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the guards to remove the piece of cloth from Li Ren's mouth. He looked at Li Ren with a gloomy face, waiting for his answer.
Li Ren moved his numb lips, shrunk his neck, and said weakly: "Your Majesty, if I say this, I don't know at all that you believe it?" β
"Drop, I feel Li Shimin's doubts, and the questioning value is +20."
"Drop, I feel the question of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the question value is +15."
"Drop, I feel Fang Xuanling's questioning, and the questioning value is +10."
"Drop, I feel Du Ruhui's questioning, and the questioning value is +18."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Hearing the constant prompts in his head, Li Ren's face turned green.
So many people don't believe in themselves. It seems that this time I will lose my life
