"Speak clearly!" Li Shimin's angry voice came, and Shen An braced himself to tell the details of what he knew.

There was not too much embellishment, and there was no need for Shen An to polish what Changsun did.

Anyone who hears this will be furious.

As he spoke, Li Shimin's face became darker and darker.

Changsun's sophistry kept buzzing in his ears, and he couldn't hear a word of it.

No matter what he said, Li Shimin would not believe it.

He knew his eldest grandson too well. He was a troublemaker, a brainless beast, and he didn't know why he was given the birth of a boy.

To be honest, he didn't want to admit that he was related by marriage.

Taking other people's hard-earned money and wrapping it up is definitely something that the eldest grandson can do.

"Shut up!" he said angrily.

Shen An was startled, thinking he was talking about him, and immediately shut his mouth. Li Shimin immediately signaled to him not to be nervous.

His words were obviously intended for Changsun Wuxian, who was buzzing and screaming, but Changsun Wuxian was too eager to defend himself and didn't listen at all.

"Your Majesty, Shen Quan committed suicide and had nothing to do with the old minister!" He was furious and spoke fluently.

"It turns out that Duke Xue Guo knew about my father's death. I thought you never received the news." Shen An responded.

"I was...I was..." Zhangsun stuttered so nervously.

"So what if I know?" He was a very thick-skinned person. Seeing that he couldn't deny it, he actually admitted it and bit back.

"I didn't kill Shen Quan, so what does it have to do with me!" He stood up reluctantly, put his hands behind his back, and refused to let go.

His quibbles were completely within Shen An's expectation.

Because it is completely true, even if Shen An hates him, it cannot be said that Shen Quan was killed by him.

Changsun has always been shameless. How can anyone who wants to show off his face do such a disgusting thing as frame a friend?

"Xue Guogong is so courageous. If you hadn't tricked my father into doing business, would my father have gone bankrupt?"

"You clearly knew that my father had insufficient financial resources, yet you kept lying to him. My father went to Yongfeng to borrow money out of his trust in you."

"Now, my father threw himself into a lake because he was unable to repay his debts, and you actually have the nerve to say that it had nothing to do with you!"

"Although you are the Duke of the country and my father is just a low-ranking official of the ninth rank, fundamentally speaking, human life has no dignity."

"Your life is life, and my father's life is also life."

"You must pay the price!" He faced Li Shimin and said these words firmly.

"Your Majesty, please don't listen to this kid's slander!"

"Everything he told was lies, none of it was true!"

"Your Majesty, the information we have received is all from the confession of the owner of Yongfeng Treasury, who is still in custody at Dali Temple."

"Your Majesty will know the specific situation after asking."

Dali Temple?

Yes, the key lies here.

Li Shimin fell into deep thought. He had already sent an order to Dali Temple to seal the Yongfeng Treasury and investigate the matter in detail.

But now it has been a month. Logically speaking, the case file should have been submitted long ago, but now, not a hair has been seen.

He was busy with government affairs and failed to notice it in time. Now that I think about it, maybe it was because Changsun Wuxian was involved in this matter that Dali Temple kept it secret.

As for Changsun Wuxian, Li Shimin could tolerate him drinking and having fun, but he didn't think it was a big deal and could forgive him teasing women.

Even though he was greedy, it was not good for him. For the sake of the queen, Li Shimin could reluctantly accept it.

However, Li Shimin could no longer bear the consequences of killing people and harming Shen Quan, who had been so kind to him.

"you!"

With a wave of his hand, he grabbed the eldest grandson's collar.

"How dare you do this!"

"Shen Quan has been honest and responsible all his life, but you treat him like this. You are still not a human being!"

"Is he a human?" Li Shimin grabbed his eldest grandson. His roar made the eldest grandson tremble like chaff, and he forgot all his words of defense.

"Get out of here!"

"roll!"

With a violent slam on his hand, Changsun fell to the bottom of the steps. His feet hurt, his face hurt, but he no longer hurt anywhere.

"Your Majesty, you must trust me!"

"I have never done anything, I am wronged!"

Before Shen An could speak, he saw Li Zhi's kind eyes, saw him jumping down the steps, and said lightly: "Father, I think I can't tell the truth, so I just need to pass on the boss of Yongfeng Cash Bank. Just ask and you will know.”

"What else are you asking!"

"What kind of virtue does he have? I don't think I know!" Li Shimin slapped the dragon throne fiercely and jumped up and down in anger.

Since the death of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin has become increasingly unable to control his temper and has become more and more irritable. There seems to be an evil fire in his heart that is always held back and cannot be vented.

Seeing Changsun Wuxian's failure to live up to his expectations, he was even more filled with hatred.

The eldest grandson was not a fool. As soon as he saw the development of the situation, he knew that Li Shimin was angry and sober. He begged and begged, but Li Shimin remained unmoved.

"Changsun Wuxian, think about it with your conscience, are you worthy of the queen for what you have done?" Tears filled Li Shimin's eyes when he mentioned the queen.

How reluctant he was to mention the queen's name on such an occasion. If the queen knew about this, would she still intercede for her brother?

But no matter what the queen thought, Li Shimin had to act according to his own thoughts.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, I did not mean it."

"I won't dare to do it again!" Changsun didn't care about his feet, he lay on the ground and begged. Li Shimin didn't even look at him.

"I have nothing to say to you. You can go back to Aizhou!"

"What!"

The eldest grandson was dumbfounded. Since returning to Chang'an, Li Shimin's good expression made him forget for a moment how much he hated him.

But going back to Iowa?

That barren land, is that where people live?

At his age, if he were asked to travel a long distance back to Iowa, he might die halfway through.

This time he returned to Beijing from Aizhou, which was a big bargain. If Bai Rao's sister hadn't died, he might have stayed in that place for the rest of his life.

But now, in only half a year, he had lost this hard-won opportunity.

He really regretted that he had shot himself in the foot. This was it.

"Your Majesty, I admit that I am responsible for Shen Quan's death, but I am not guilty of this!"

He also argued that this old boy's face is really thicker than the city wall.

"Xue Guogong, since you claim that you are not responsible for my father's death, you clearly know that my father is poor, but you still trick him into doing business with him and instigate him to borrow money from Yongfeng Treasury."

"It's just a loan, what about the restaurant?"

"Where have you been?"

"It didn't start at all, and you took all the money away!"

"I think from the very beginning, you planned to defraud my father of his money, and in order to achieve this goal, you were willing to kill someone!"
