"King Wei, you are clearly protecting your subordinates. Are you not afraid of the sin of deceit? Du He said angrily to Li Tai.

"Have you forgotten that slap, do you remember what this king told you at the time?" Li Tai said as he strolled towards Duhe.

In the Jinluan Palace, Li Tai dared to be the prime minister of the dynasty, not to mention a little Duhe now. So Du Ruhui immediately spoke: "Du He, what is your identity, you dare to speak out and teach King Wei a lesson." Don't you know that this is a sin of disrespect? ”

Du Ru's words of regret made Li Tai stop, and then said: "For Uncle Du's sake today, this king doesn't care about you. If there is a next time, this king will definitely cut off all your limbs. ”

Du He was really overwhelmed by Li Tai's momentum, and he was at a loss for a while. The whole person stood stupidly.

"Brother Huang, please pay attention to your words and deeds, don't lose all the faces of the royal children." Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai and said.

"What the royal brother said is not right, could it be that the descendants of the royal family let others shout at will." Li Tai retorted to Li Chengqian.

"Forget it, the main thing now is to figure out what happened in Nanshan. I'll leave the rest of the matter at that. Li Shimin said.

"Your Majesty, King Wei has already said it just now, isn't this enough to show that Du He is lying?" Cheng Yanjin said to Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, although Xiao'er was indeed disrespectful to King Wei just now, what Du He said is not unreasonable." Du Ruhui immediately got up and said.

"You have your own opinions, and if this stalemate continues, I won't have to sleep tonight. Say, you all want me to do something about this. Li Shimin said after a sigh.

"Your Majesty, Lao Cheng is worried that Tie Niu will be assassinated again. If the person who dies is just a moment of anger. Then Lao Cheng was naturally relieved. Cheng Yanjin said to Li Shimin.

Cheng Yanjin's words are already very clear. I just don't want to go into this matter anymore.

After hearing Cheng Yanjin's words, Li Shimin nodded, so he looked at Du Ruhui.

Seeing Li Shimin's gaze, Du Ruhui said: "No matter what the reason is, this person is dead after all, at least give an explanation to other people's families." Who will be responsible for the maintenance of the family in the future? ”

Speaking of which, this matter can be regarded as an eyebrow. Even Li Shimin didn't expect that Du Ruhui, who has always been rigid and dogmatic, would compromise on this matter.

"Li Tai, this matter has nothing to do with your Wei Wang's forbidden army. You take out a thousand taels of silver and give it to the family of the deceased, and the matter is settled. Li Shimin turned back to Li Tai and said.

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Tai immediately showed a reluctant expression. Just wanted to say something more, but saw Li Shimin's eyes widen.

So he could only say helplessly: "Since my father said it, Nachen naturally doesn't dare to refute it." Early tomorrow morning, the retainers will deliver the money to Uncle Du's house. ”

"Your Majesty, since the matter has been resolved, the old minister will also retire." Du Ruhui got up and said to Li Shimin.

Subsequently, Cheng Yanjin also got up to say goodbye to Li Shimin. After Li Shimin nodded, Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin left Taiji Palace.

Seeing Du Ruhui and Cheng Biting Jin leaving, Li Shimin said with a straight face: "Gao Ming, Qingque, you two made me very unhappy today. You should know for yourselves. I don't want that to happen again. ”

Li Chengqian and Li Tai naturally understood the meaning of Li Shimin's words. So they nodded their heads to indicate that they understood.

Seeing his two sons leave, Li Shimin let out a long sigh. Then he said to himself: "Boiled beans say beans, beans cry in the kettle." This is born from the same root, so why not be in a hurry to fry each other. ”

Li Shimin never expected that his seven-step poem had just been recited. I heard a deep voice say, "The cycle of karma is not happy." ”

This voice belonged to Emperor Li Yuan, and then Emperor Li Yuan walked into Li Shimin's imperial study.

Li Shimin saw Li Yuan walk in, hurriedly got up and saluted Li Yuan and said, "Father, why did you come to Shimin so late?" If something happens, just get someone to let you know. Why bother to run for the night in person? ”

"I've been so leisurely and how anything can happen. It's just that I heard that you're confused right now, so I'm going to come and talk to you. Li Yuan said as he found a chair and sat down.

"Father, you must already know why the people are worried. It seems that as my father said, the cycle of karma is not happy. Li Shimin said to Li Yuan.

"In fact, this is also a good thing for the Li family, which shows that the children and grandchildren of our Li family are not idle people. If they are all doing nothing, then you don't have to worry about it anymore. Li Yuan said to Li Shimin.

"Father, don't you really blame Shimin for killing the eldest brother?" Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan and said.

"There is nothing to blame, if your eldest brother is not dead, then the one who dies must be you. It saddens me that these things didn't happen to me a hundred years later. It was that I was alive to witness it happen. Li Yuan said to Li Shimin with a sigh.

After hearing Li Yuan's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel sour in his heart. Since ancient times, it is not uncommon for a prince to seize the throne. But when my father was alive, there were very few people who saw each other.

"Father, now Gao Ming and Qingque can be called Qilin'er. So sooner or later, there will be a fight between the two of them. Li Shimin said to Li Yuan.

"You're much better than I am, and as long as you're alive for a day, they'll never dare to overdo it. Even if they do something drastic, you can control it. Li Yuan said to Li Shimin.

"From the current point of view, Qingque is not too attached to the throne, everything he does is to live a better life. The life he wants is to be free and unrestrained. ”

"And Gao Ming cares very much about this throne, so even if the two of them meet each other. The one who provoked the incident must also be clever. Li Shimin said to Li Yuan.

Although Qingque has no intention of taking the throne, it is difficult to guarantee that one day, he will be forced to choose to sit in this position. This is called being born in the royal body involuntarily. Li Yuan said with a sigh.

"I don't know what my father wants to tell the people when he comes here tonight?" Li Shimin asked Li Yuan.

Li Shimin felt that Li Yuan's trip was definitely not to chat with him. There must be something to say to yourself.

"I have always thought that you should not have made your eldest brother the crown prince back then, and supported your forces. But from now on, I have left a way back for myself and the Li family. After Li Yuan finished speaking, he stood up and patted Li Shimin on the shoulder.
