Chapter 299: The water is deep and shallow
Li Suguan was low, if he had changed to another county and knelt in front of Chengtian Gate and said something like "begging for heavenly beauty", he would have been picked up and thrown away by the patrolling guards.
But Li Su is different, he was personally given the honor of riding a horse in Chang'an City by Li Shimin, and more importantly, after creating the earth-shattering thunder, Li Shimin issued a special decree that Li Su could enter the palace to see him at any time.
After the guards checked the waist card, they let Li Su enter the palace, and a eunuch waited in the door early and led Li Su towards the Ganlu Palace.
Seeing that Li Shimin's process was very smooth, Li Su walked to the porch of the Ganlu Hall and took off his shoes, only wearing his foot clothes, stepping on the smooth floor like a mirror and stepping into the hall, Li Shimin's expression in the hall was a little gloomy, and he looked up to see Li Su saluting him, and he did not let out the usual hearty and relaxed laughter, but raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to sit down next to the couch.
"Zizheng, see me something?"
Without the usual politeness, Li Shimin's mood was obviously very bad, and he went straight to the topic as soon as he opened his mouth.
Li Su didn't want to be polite to him, so he lowered his head and said: "The minister heard that the prince of Langya County is in prison, and the minister ......."
Li Shimin suddenly understood, and stared at him with a gloomy face: "Do you want to intercede for Niu Jinda?" ”
Li Su looked at him without fear: "Yes, the minister wants to ask for a favor for Uncle Niu, Uncle Niu is the founding minister, and he has the merit of following the dragon, why is Your Majesty ...... because of a word?"
Before Li Su finished speaking, Li Shimin's robe sleeves waved vigorously and interrupted him.
"If you plead for Niu Jinda, Zizheng doesn't need to say much, you can step down."
Li Su frowned, Li Shimin's attitude is clear and determined to cure Niu Jinda's sin, what is going on?
"Your Majesty, Uncle Niu is in trouble, and the minister can't sit idly by, why does Your Majesty have to put Uncle Niu in prison regardless of the affection of the monarch and the minister for many years?"
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly. There was a cold glint in his eyes, a very dangerous signal.
"I don't care about the love of kings and ministers for many years? Boy, you go and ask Niu Jinda, you first ask him why he has ignored the affection of the monarch and the minister for many years, do you know what this old bastard has written in the song? ”
"The minister doesn't know, but the minister knows that Uncle Niu is right to your majesty. There is also a brave loyalty to the Jiangshan Sheji, the depth of love, the responsibility is keen, even if Uncle Niu's words are offensive to His Majesty, it is also a heart of worry about the Sheji, His Majesty is known to be tolerant and elegant, why can't he tolerate the thoughts of a founding minister today who is worried about the country and the people? ”
Li Shimin's tone gradually became gloomy: "Li Su, are you also accusing me?" ”
"The minister didn't dare to ......" Li Su lowered his head expressionlessly and hesitated for a moment. After all, the fear of imperial power is no match for the attachment of the elders, nor can it be matched against one's own conscience.
Hanging his head and smiling bitterly silently, Li Su didn't expect that he was actually a good person.
After a long time, Li Su raised his head, his eyes were clear, fearless and fearless.
"Minister...... I just want to get justice for Uncle Niu. ”
Bang!
Li Shimin was really furious, and he shot the case, pointing at Li Su and trembling.
"The world scolds me. The courtiers scolded me, and today even the yellow-mouthed child dared to come to me to seek justice. Today, is Datang still the Li family? Li Su, do you really want to seek justice for Niu Jinda? Aren't you afraid that I will kill you? ”
Li Su sighed secretly, but his tone was extremely firm: "Your Majesty killed the minister, and there may be people in the back who will come to seek justice for the minister, and Your Majesty will owe more and more justice." ”
Unexpectedly. Li Shimin was actually not angry, and his excited appearance was like a new sunny day after a shower, and the clouds dispersed in a blink of an eye.
With a wave of the sleeves of his robe, Li Shimin waved away the eunuchs in the palace, and then sat down and stared at Li Su. Silent for a long time.
Li Su was stared at by him, and began to wonder if this thing was so angry that he wanted to rape himself here and then kill him, otherwise why did he drive out all the eunuchs in the palace, and ...... His son is so easily bent, maybe there is a genetic factor in this......
When thinking nonsense, Li Shimin sighed and said: "Li Su, you have been wandering outside the court, I can guess a little bit of your thoughts, you don't want to step into this muddy water, you just want to live a stable and peaceful life, this is good, I think you are a smart person, really, I have never seen a child as smart as you......"
Li Su smiled bitterly: "The minister is not smart, if the minister is smart, he will not be here at this moment." ”
Li Shimin nodded: "Yes, at this moment, you are indeed not smart enough, you should be lazy and slippery in your firearms bureau, wandering around with nothing to do, or in your home, whether it is fishing, basking in the sun, and living your ordinary and leisurely life, but...... You just appeared here, Li Su, smart people have times when they are confused, and I have been there before, so I don't blame you, you go out from here now, I can be as if you haven't been here today. ”
Li Su's smile became more and more bitter: "But,...... The minister is already here. ”
Li Shimin's gaze gradually sharpened: "This matter is not something you can get involved in." ”
"The minister never wanted to get involved in this matter, but Uncle Niu entered Dali Temple, and the minister couldn't help but get involved......"
Li Shimin's expression was cold, he looked at the clear sky outside the hall, and said indifferently: "Li Su, when you and my daughter secretly had a secret affair with me, had a private tryst, did I ever punish him after I found out?" ”
Li Su hung his head: "No." ”
"Do you think that you have created a heaven-shaking thunderbolt that will be of great use to the country, so I can't do anything to you?"
"The minister is just a small person in the prosperous world, how can he dare to be arrogant? The minister only hopes that this prosperous world can be longer and stronger, and Uncle Niu also shares this heart with the minister. ”
Li Shimin said expressionlessly: "For the sake of the prosperous world, you don't even distinguish between the dignity and the inferiority of the monarch and the minister, what is the use of this prosperous world?" ”
"The prosperous age will not come for the king, but for the people."
This sentence was very tough, so tough that Li Shimin finally got angry: "Li Su! Do you think I really dare not kill you? ”
Li Su sighed: "The minister is just a person of His Majesty, of course His Majesty dares to kill me, but the minister still wants to seek justice for Uncle Niu...... Although the minister is young, he also knows that the court is dangerous, His Majesty insists on building the Daming Palace this time, which is somewhat mixed with other things, the minister does not know how deep the water is, and he does not know what His Majesty's purpose is, but Uncle Niu is innocent, he is a loyal and honest minister who has followed His Majesty for many years, no matter what His Majesty's purpose is, Uncle Niu should not be a victim. ”
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you see?" ”
Li Su looked at him directly, the two looked at each other for a long time, and Li Su suddenly sighed: "The minister is too stupid, he can't see anything......"
