Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

When Li Shen saw his father, he felt as if he had seen a ghost.

He had always thought that his father was attending court in the main hall, so how come he suddenly appeared in front of him?

And it seems that he also stole his fan.

But now is not the time to think about other things, because the way Li Shimin looks at Li Shen is becoming more and more frightening.

"What did you just say, you bastard?"

Li Shimin kicked Li Shen without saying a word.

"I...I...I'm fine. Aye must have heard it wrong just now." Li Shen replied stutteringly.

It was just a slip of the tongue and I didn't think much about it at the time. Who could have expected that there would be someone in the palace who would dare to steal my things.

If I had known, I wouldn't have called him a bastard.

Li Shen secretly felt lucky that he didn't curse more harshly, such as "son of a bastard".

Otherwise, wouldn't I become a little bastard, hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting myself by twelve thousand?

"Humph, do you think I didn't hear you just now? You have no respect for your elders. Do you know what the crime of insulting the emperor is?"

Li Shimin taught Li Shen a lesson with a stern face.

Ever since he found out that he was deceived by Li Shen, Li Shimin has been holding a grudge and always wanted to find an opportunity to teach this unfilial son a lesson.

I finally got an excuse today, and I have to vent my anger.

"Aye, please don't scare me, I can't bear it.

It was unintentional, so please don't hold it against me."

Li Shen hurriedly explained that insulting the emperor was a capital crime, so there was no need to make such a big deal.

My own father is the same. He would always make me commit a capital crime for no reason. Who can stand that?

"Hehe, you still know that you can't take responsibility? Your Highness Prince Ji is very powerful and influential, so what can you not take responsibility for?"

Li Shimin snorted twice, and then said something sarcastic.

"Uh..." Li Shen was stunned, thinking to himself that this was not good. Based on his many years of experience, he was going to lose money again this time.

Every time my father said this, I would spend money to avoid disaster.

But Li Shen really didn't want to spend money, so he pretended to be serious and said nothing.

Li Shimin was not in a hurry. He looked at the folding fan in his hand, unfolded it and smelled it. There was indeed a faint scent of sandalwood.

Looking at this silk fan again, I couldn't help but sigh with regret:

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a shame to waste such a nice fan."

"If Aye likes it, I will give it to Aye."

It turned out that he liked fans. Upon seeing this, Li Shen hurriedly and attentively presented it to him.

"You keep it. I'd be embarrassed if I took it out." Li Shimin expressed regret again and threw the fan to Li Shen.

"Shame on you? What shame on you? Father, this folding fan is such an elegant thing. It will surely be popular among scholars in the future."

Looking at the fan in his hand, Li Shen explained.

"I'm not talking about the fan, I'm talking about the words on it. It's a pity that such a good fan was ruined by these words."

"............" Li Shen was speechless. He wanted to attack violently and kill his father and the king.

How could he tolerate such an insult? Li Shen was ready to seek justice for himself:

"Aye, I think..."

"I don't need your feelings, I only need my feelings, and I will send a blank fan to the palace.

Remember to use high-quality materials, and don’t try to deceive me.”

Before Li Shen could finish his words, Li Shimin ruthlessly interrupted him.

Li Shen swallowed it back. Why did this sentence sound so familiar? It seemed like he often said it to Shitou.

"What? You don't want to?" Seeing Li Shen in a daze, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, yes, I do.

Being able to honor and respect one's parents is a blessing for a son. Many people want to do so but don't have the chance.

For example, the eldest brother, the fourth brother, and the ninth brother all had no chance to honor their father, which is a pity, a pity. "

Li Shen kept shaking his head in regret, but his tone was full of double entendres.

Li Shimin could tell that Li Shen had something else in mind, but he didn't say much.

He also wanted his sons to be filial, but they were all poor, so he might have to reward them.

Unlike the rebellious son in front of him, at least in terms of money, he can be on equal footing with him and does not need to be supported by himself.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. It's not filial piety to ask you to order something with so much effort.

Are you sure you can come here today?" Li Shimin changed the subject, not wanting Li Shen to continue to be sarcastic.

"Replying to Aye, I'm not sure about that." Li Shen shook his head.

"Really? Humph, do you think I will believe you?

But if it is really impossible, then delay it. I have already made arrangements and will be able to help you escape in a few days."

Li Shimin snorted and warned Li Shen.

This surprised Li Shen somewhat. His father had actually already thought of a plan for him to escape.

Emma, ​​you should have told me earlier. If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have had to reveal my cards.

When Li Shen thought about revealing his trump card, he felt regretful and said to Li Shimin:

"Thank you so much, Aye."

He really wanted to ask his father, didn’t he tell him that he wanted to give him a surprise?

Not only did he reveal a card in the Changsun family, he also showed Li Zhi that he knew everything.

Wouldn't Li Zhi have to be more cautious from now on?

He is my great dad.

"Your Majesty, the court meeting has ended. Your Highness the Crown Prince invites Your Majesty into the palace."

At this time, Wang Zhong ran over and saluted.

"Yeah." Li Shimin hummed, and then Wang De stepped forward to help Li Shimin tidy up his clothes.

Li Shimin then strode towards the Taiji Hall.

Li Shen followed obediently behind.

Entering the hall, everyone stood respectfully on both sides, and Li Shimin came to the dragon throne and sat down.

All the officials saluted together:

"See Your Majesty."

"Well, my dear ministers, please don't be polite." Li Shimin waved his hand and continued:

“The case of Prince Ji has been delayed for a long time, and I summoned you all today just for this case.

I hope that this time the trial will be held in front of all of you, my dear ministers, for the sake of fairness and justice.

The case was presided over by Zuo Pushe Changsun Aiqing and Zhongshu Ling Ma Aiqing, assisted by Minister of Justice Zhang Aiqing and Dali Temple Minister Sun Aiqing.

I will only be an observer and will not participate.

Whether it is guilty or not is entirely up to Duke Zhao and Secretary Ma. My dear ministers, let's start now."

Li Shimin took the lead in expressing his attitude and told the ministers that he would not be partial and would treat them fairly.

After hearing what Li Shimin said, Changsun Wuji and Ma Zhou hurried forward to pay their respects and accept the order.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After saying that, the two turned around and asked Li Shen in front of everyone:

"Your Highness Prince Ji, the Imperial Censor Wang impeached you for joining forces with local tribal leaders in Xizhou to oppress the people, take human lives lightly, and kill people for property.

And selling local officials, what do you say?"
