Chapter 38: Cocooning Yourself

At this time, Li Shimin's face had become extremely gloomy, and he looked directly at Li Tai and asked, "Should you give me an explanation?" ”

Li Tai never expected this result to be in any way. originally thought that he had forged the seal of the East Palace, at least he could make Li Chengqian fall into a crime of lax governance.

But now he is very passive, but Li Tai understands it in his heart. In any case, I can't admit that this contract was forged by someone else.

So he opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, you can't rely on the one-sided words of His Royal Highness the Prince. It was concluded that he did not do it. ”

"Father, the son can take out the contract for the purchase of other stores. After reading it, the father will naturally understand who is playing right and wrong. Li Chengqian glared at Li Tai and said.

In fact, Li Shimin at this time already understood that all this was done by Li Tai. After all, Li Tai had no trouble with Li Chengqian before. And the motive for all this is the position of the crown prince.

If Li Chengqian is really asked to come up with evidence, then Li Tai will not be able to exonerate the crime of blaming the prince in any way.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, please ask Rong Chen to interrogate the shopkeeper of this shop." ”

Seeing Li Shimin nodded, the eldest grandson Wuji came to the shopkeeper and asked, "Are you sure that the person who bought your shop was sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

"You have to think about it, this matter is about the innocence of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Yue. If you are a fool of your word, I'm afraid you will be inevitable. ”

How could everyone in the Taiji Hall not hear that the eldest grandson Wuji was threatening the shopkeeper. However, no one spoke out to expose the eldest grandson Wuji.

Because they know that if they do that, it will definitely not be the eldest grandson Wuji who will be offended. It was Li Shimin on the dragon chair.

At this time, the shopkeeper was already trembling with fright, so he said in a trembling voice: "The person who came claimed to be His Royal Highness the Prince, and the contract to the grass people also had the seal of the East Palace. ”

"As for whether or not their identities are real, the grass people are nothing more than lowly merchants. How dare you check it? ”

"Since you are not sure that they are from the East Palace, why do you dare to come to the Taiji Hall to sue the prince? Wasn't he instructed by someone? The eldest grandson Wuji asked sharply.

"No...... No one...... No one instructed ...... Command the grass people. The shopkeeper was so frightened that he couldn't even finish his sentence.

"It seems that you won't be recruited without a big punishment. Someone comes, pull him down and hit the thirty boards. The eldest grandson Wuji said angrily.

Immediately, a forbidden soldier stepped forward and pulled the shopkeeper down, and soon there was a cry of pain outside the Taiji Hall. Soon, however, the sound stopped.

"Your Majesty, that person has been tortured and has already died of anger." The forbidden army came to the Jinluan Palace and said to Li Shimin.

Hearing that the shopkeeper was dead, Li Shimin's face showed a hint of relief. Then he spoke: "Eldest Sun Wuji, I appointed you to investigate this case thoroughly, and I must find out who is behind the scenes." ”

"The minister obeys the order, and the minister will bring the person who framed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to justice. Let those with ill intentions know what the result of marrying His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is. The eldest grandson Wuji said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded, and then said to Li Tai: "Li Tai, the king of Yue, listened to and believed partially, and almost made the prince wronged. Although it is not your intention, it cannot be punished by you. ”

"From this day on, you have been thinking about it in the palace, and no one is allowed to visit it."

In fact, Li Chengqian knew in his heart that it was impossible for Li Shimin to severely punish Li Tai. However, Li Chengqian was not ready to give up.

So he opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Father, the person who framed his son must bring him to justice. Otherwise, the majesty of the prince of the Tang Dynasty will soon be gone. ”

"King Yue mistakenly believed the slander and openly impeached his ministers in the Taiji Palace. It is also a great disrespect to his sons, and he also asks his father to punish him. ”

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin's face became a little ugly. opened his mouth and asked Li Chengqian: "Then I don't know what the prince thinks, how should Li Tai be punished?" ”

"My father has grounded King Yue, which can be regarded as a punishment. However, Erchen felt that he should be allowed to enjoy the same treatment as Erchen that day. Li Chengqian said.

Li Chengqian's words made Li Shimin a little confused. looked at Li Chengqian with a puzzled face, and didn't know whether he should agree to Li Chengqian for a while.

"I remember that my father and the emperor banned his sons that day, but even his sons' diet was restricted. The taste of the boiled vegetables is still fresh in his memory. Li Chengqian said with a smile.

Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, and couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face. Then he said: "Inform the Shang Food Bureau that during the period of the Yue King Li Tai's confinement, the diet will be configured according to the low-level palace people. ”

At this time, Li Tai's face became even more ugly, this Li Taike is definitely the master of no flesh and no joy. Otherwise, you won't eat like a ball of meat.

……

"Do you think that I am acting unfairly today and deliberately favoring your fourth brother?" Li Shimin asked Li Chengqian in the Ganlu Palace.

"Father, the son said that the son will not do the matter of boiling beans and burning beans." Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin with an indifferent face.

"Okay, with your words, I will feel at ease." Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

"But should my father also give his sons a little compensation?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin and said with a smile.

"I know that you kid won't suffer. Say, how can I make it up to you? Li Shimin said with a helpless smile.

"Erchen's Yiqiu Palace has begun to be rebuilt. Erchen hopes that his father will agree, no matter what Erchen will build Yiqiu Palace. Neither father nor emperor can punish his sons. Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin.

"As long as you don't let me give you money, you can build Yiqiu Palace into a Lingxiao Treasure Palace. I won't bother. Li Shimin said indifferently.

In the near future, Li Shimin really regrets what he said today. But even if he regretted it, it would be to no avail.

"My father mentioned money, and my son just happened to have something I wanted to ask my godfather." Li Chengqian said.

"Doesn't it have anything to do with money?" Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian.

"Yes, it's about money. I wonder if my father thinks money is important? Li Chengqian nodded and asked.

"Money is naturally important, from a small family to a large country, you can't live without money. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who would lose their heads for money. Li Shimin said.

Erchen also feels that money is very important, so Erchen thinks that he should find a way to make money. But I'm afraid that those imperial historians will be impeached, father, what should you do about this matter? Li Chengqian said with a sad expression.
