Looking at this crying official, Li Shimin suddenly rubbed his temples with a depressed face. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
"Trouble again!"
In the midst of the bitter cry of this speech official, soon several more speech officials came out one after another, and in less than ten breaths, there were more than a dozen speech officials standing in the middle of the court.
These dozen or so officials all came out to sue Li Su, and the reason for the complaint was all because Li Su beat their son.
Seeing this scene, Li Shimin immediately frowned, and then asked the eunuch on his lower right, "Has King Liang come to the court?" ”
Hearing Li Shimin's question, the eunuch immediately shook his head.
"His Royal Highness King Liang hasn't come to the court for almost half a month!"
Knowing that Li Su did not come, Li Shimin suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled at the officials below.
"Ladies and gentlemen, King Liang did not go to court today, it is better to wait until tomorrow, after I find out the truth, then I will definitely ask him to give you Aiqing an explanation, what do you Aiqing think?"
Hearing Li Shimin say this, these officials had no choice but to agree.
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
In their opinion, if Li Shimin can't give you a satisfactory answer, it's a big deal for everyone to go to the Xuanwu Gate to kneel once, anyway, they are outnumbered, and when the time comes, things will be big, see who doesn't look good!
Li Shimin really didn't dare to protect Li Su, after all, being an official is equal to fame, so after the next dynasty, Li Shimin handed Li Su to the imperial study.
Li Su had just entered the imperial study, and Li Shimin grabbed the pen holder and threw it over.
"Son, you did a good job!"
Li was caught off guard and was beaten up, and suddenly fell to the ground with a cry of "oops", and his forehead was full of blood. [Thousand ↑ Thousand △ Small ↓ Say △ Net W xQq ]
"Ah, it's bleeding!"
Looking at the frightened Li Su, Li Shimin's heart suddenly softened, but he immediately hardened his heart, and then glared at Li Su.
"Son, when you go to court today, more than a dozen ministers impeach you together, what else do you have to say?"
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Su, who was originally covering his forehead and screaming, was suddenly stunned.
"I didn't do anything wrong, so why did they impeach me?"
Looking at the innocent Li Su, Li Shimin's anger that had just calmed down rose again.
"You son of a, you are embarrassed to ask me why, do you think about what you did yesterday?"
"Yesterday?"
After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Su's face suddenly showed a thoughtful look.
"I went to Big Brother yesterday, and Big Brother, uh...... Then I went to Chang'an Avenue. ”
Speaking of this, Li Su suddenly secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I almost told my eldest brother about beating me, but fortunately I reacted quickly enough!"
Li Shimin was burning with anger at this time, and he didn't hear Li Su's change of words halfway, and looked at him viciously again.
"What are you doing on Chang'an Avenue? Say! ”
The last word "said", Li Shimin completely roared, hearing his roar, Li Su was suddenly frightened, and then shrank his head, and his voice was lowered.
"I ...... I'm going to collect the debt! ”
Hearing Li Su's answer, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, but the anger on his face was even worse in an instant.
"Debt collection? What debt are you going to collect? ”
Looking at Li Shimin with an angry face, Li Su didn't dare to lie, so he could only tell the truth.
"Last time, those officials impeached the sons, so the sons were beaten by their father, and the sons were resentful, but the father once said that the sons were not allowed to beat the court officials, so ......"
Li Su didn't say the rest of the words, but Li Shimin already understood, and the corners of his eyes suddenly twitched several times.
"So you hit their son, didn't you?"
As soon as Li Shimin's words fell, Li Su nodded decisively.
"Yes, I have already inquired, and none of their sons are court officials, so the sons are not considered to have disobeyed their father's words, and the father's debt is repaid by the son, which is justified!"
Speaking of this, Li Su seemed to have found courage, and he immediately raised his head and looked at Li Shimin, his eyes full of determination.
Looking at Li Su, who looked taken for granted, the corners of Li Shimin's eyes twitched a few times again.
"Father's debt to the son? Who taught you this? ”
Hearing Li Shimin's question, a hint of triumph suddenly flashed on Li Su's face.
"Yes, of course...... I figured it out myself! ”
After saying this, a smile appeared on the corner of Li Su's mouth again.
"It's so dangerous, I almost confessed my eldest brother, but fortunately I reacted quickly!"
Li Su, who was being proud, obviously didn't expect that the pause he just now would expose him, and the angry Li Shimin suddenly grabbed his shirt and lifted him up.
"Son, can you still think of such a thing as paying off your father's debts with your elm head? Don't tell me the truth, you ......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Shimin frowned, then loosened Li Su's shirt, and pointed to the bruises on his face and asked.
"What's the matter with these bruises on your face? Who hit you? ”
As a typical "feudal patriarch", although Li Shimin beat and scolded Li Su, Li Su is his son, and he can only beat or scold, and others will definitely not work.
But what Li Shimin didn't expect was that after hearing his question, Li Su became alert and shook his head decisively.
"No one hit me, I accidentally fell on my own!"
As soon as his words fell, Li Shimin sprayed his face with spittle
"Fart! Can you fall like this if you accidentally fall? You're really old and confused, aren't you? ”
Looking at the silent Li Su, Li Shimin's heart suddenly became even angrier, and he raised his hand and was about to give him a slap, but the slap had not yet fallen, and Li Shimin suddenly remembered something.
"Yesterday I beat Gao Ming, and then Li Su, this kid, beat the sons of those officials, look at the bruises on this kid's face, he must have been beaten, plus the words that the father and son repay the debt, it should not be ...... who beat him"
Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly looked at Li Su with a strange expression.
"The wound on your face must have been caused by your eldest brother, right?"
"Huh? Father, how do you know? ”
As soon as the words came out, Li Su suddenly reacted that he had leaked his mouth, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand, and then looked at Li Shimin with a shocked face, looking like he had seen a ghost.
Looking at Li Su's shocked eyes, Li Shimin suddenly closed his eyes, and then let out a long sigh.
"Alas......"
At this time, Li Shimin already understood the general situation of the matter, this matter is nothing more than that he beat Gao Ming, and then Gao Ming beat Li Su in order to get angry, and when he beat him, he must have said the phrase "father and son pay off", and Li Su, who was stunned, was "inspired" by Gao Ming's words, and then went to beat the sons of more than a dozen officials who had impeached him.
After thinking about this, Li Shimin no longer paid attention to Li Su, but walked to the door of the study and said a word to the eunuch outside the door.
"Go to the East Palace and bring the prince to me."
"Yes!"
