Chapter 137 Uncle and Nephew

After this trouble, Li Shimin calmed down.

In fact, Li Shimin in history was not a murderous emperor. Apart from killing his brothers, he had never killed a few people. During the Zhenguan period, he rarely heard of any unjust cases. Compared with the emperors in later generations, he was very kind. From this point of view, it makes sense that he was called a wise king. If you want to kill, kill your own family, do not attack the ministers, and do not harm the people. Such an emperor can certainly be considered a wise king.

If it weren't for the fact that Li Mu did so annoying today, he wouldn't have gotten such a big temper. At this time, he calmed down and saw the fearful appearance of Mr. Chen, sighed and said, "Don't knock it, get up and answer."

"No." Eunuch Chen responded quickly, his forehead was already bruised. Eunuch Gao passed him over to look, and Eunuch Chen understood and lowered his eyebrows and eyes even more.

"Do you know, what crazy is Li Mu going crazy today?"

"I don't know." Eunuch Chen replied without thinking. Eunuch Gao nodded with satisfaction. He is worthy of being his godson who has been trained for many years. He is more spiritual than an ordinary eunuch, and he can be clear at a glance. If you answer such a question, you will be wrong. If you don't offend Li Shimin, you will have to offend Li Mu. Is Li Mu so easy to offend?

Eunuch Gao has been with Li Shimin for many years. Li Shimin farted in the afternoon, and he could know what Li Shimin had eaten at noon when he smelled the smell. Although Li Shimin was so angry just now, Eunuch Gao knew in his heart that Li Shimin would not do anything to Li Mu, and he was not even angry. This behavior was for outsiders to see.

Now this matter is just one step away. No matter who it is, if you give it this step, the matter will be over. Otherwise, if Li Shimin is really angry, will the guards accompanying him not have a knife? Just cut them directly, why are you still sent to Dali Temple?

Eunuch Gao was thinking a lot here, and Eunuch Chen continued to explain, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhulu asked me to go to buy, and I took people to the West Market to buy. I really don't know what happened during this period. Then the Marquis of Zhulu and the Emperor began to drink, and I sent someone to send a message. Then Your Majesty, you will arrive. What is the reason? I really don't know!"

Eunuch Gao approached Li Shimin's ear and muttered a few words, actually reminding Li Shimin that Li Mu may be in a bad mood because of Li Ji. Will Li Shimin not know about such things that fools know? He just wanted to pretend to be stupid, but in the current situation, he did not give him a chance to pretend to be stupid. He waved his hand and Eunuch Chen quickly fled and retreated.

At this time, Li Yourong came in with a tray. On the tray was a pot of tea. Li Yourong put the tea on the table and poured tea for Li Shimin. Li Shimin glanced at her, picked up the teacup and wanted to drink it.

"His Majesty!"

Eunuch Gao hurriedly stopped him, and Li Shimin looked over. Eunuch Gao hung his iconic smile, took the teacup from Li Shimin's hand, and then turned his palms like a magic trick, and a silver needle appeared in the palm.

"Princess, I don't trust the princess. But, with this rule, the rule is the rule, I'm sorry."

Li Yourong smiled, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Yourong is my niece, how can you harm me? A high-ranking official, is this action unnecessary?"

Eunuch Gao still insisted and said, "Your Majesty, I will do my best to serve Your Majesty, so I will forgive you." As he said, Eunuch Gao looked at the teacup first, then poured out a little tea and tried it with a silver needle. The color of the silver needle did not change, so he was still worried. He continued to look at the teapot and poured out a little tea and tried it to make sure there was no problem. He took the silver needle back and poured the tea for Li Shimin to drink.

Li Shimin glared at Eunuch Gao unhappy, as if he was blaming him. Eunuch Gao just laughed and said nothing.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and put down the teacup. He said to Li Yourong: "Yourong, I don't believe you. A high-ranking official is also the responsibility. Don't have any grudges in your heart."

Li Yourong looked at Li Shimin, suddenly bowed and gave a big gift. Li Shimin quickly helped her up and said, "What are you doing? There is no need to be so disgusted between you and my uncle and nephew!"

Li Yourong said, "Your Majesty is the king of a country. Although your ministers are your majesty's niece, you should also discuss the monarch and ministers first and then relatives. Etiquette should not be abolished. Moreover, the ministers should enter the palace yesterday to thank them, but only because... the emperor's grandfather stopped him and failed to do so. Please forgive him."

After hearing this, Li Shimin sighed and said, "My father still has complaints about me..." After pausing, Li Shimin signaled Eunuch Gao to bring a Jindun to Li Yourong, and looked at her sitting down, saying, "Yourong, I have never dared to mention the things that happened back then. I am afraid that it will affect your family relationship with me. I don't know if you can understand it. I am helpless when my father told you that day. I don't know if my father told you that day. Life and death were only between the front lines. If there was a slight mistake, I would be the dry bone in the tomb today."

Li Shimin had tears in his eyes, and his voice was slightly choked, saying, "I killed your father, I admit this account! But I don't regret it, because he ignored his brotherly feelings, and I believe that I will be a good emperor, more suitable to be a good emperor than him! Now that I have done it, I have destroyed the Turks and avenged a great revenge. If he is still alive, I believe that he will admire me."

As he said that, Li Shimin smiled again and said, "You may not believe it. I have often dreamed of your father these days... Oh, forget it, let's not mention it." Suddenly, Li Shimin's eyes narrowed, stared at Li Yourong's eyes, and said, "I have appointed you as the princess, and I want you to know everything I deserve. The things of the previous generation have nothing to do with you. I regard you as my nephew and will take care of you with all my heart. Even after the father's funeral, I will not hurt you. I will find you a happy husband, and you will enjoy the same kindness as my eldest princess."

Li Shimin looked at Li Yourong deeply, as if he had seen her through it. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes as sharp as a blade: "These are my thoughts. If you think so, everything will be fine. But if you have any other thoughts, it will be up to you, and I will be here."

Li Shimin didn't explain the rest of the words thoroughly. But Li Yourong already understood the meaning. I am here, not hiding or hiding. If you want to take revenge, it depends on whether you have the ability.

What a confidence this is.

Li Yourong looked at Li Shimin, and the aura that came to her face made her feel nervous, extraordinary nervous. She had never experienced any nervousness in her life for more than 20 years. She didn't even dare to speak, worried that she could not control her expression, allowing Li Shimin to see any flaws.

After a while, she reluctantly calmed down and said, "Your Majesty, my daughter has no hatred at all. If there is, it is also a hatred for her father and Jie Li. The experience of her daughter must have been reported to the Marquis of Zhulu. If it weren't for her father, I would not have suffered so much. My mother would not have been humiliated and remarried, nor would she die under the knife of the cavalry sent by Jie Li. My daughter only hates that she cannot avenge her mother, and there is nothing else to think about it."

Li Shimin withdrew his gaze and said, "I cannot avenge you with Jie Li. Although the Turks were destroyed, there are still many tribes in the old Turkic lands. They ruled Jie Li, and if I kill them, there will be no peace in the border cities. I cannot ruin the lives of thousands of people for you alone. But I can promise you that if there is a proper opportunity to take Jie Li's life, his life will be yours. But this time needs to be waited. If I don't nod, you can't kill him. As for your assassination this time, I have sent someone to tell him that he will not mention it again, nor will he appear in front of you again. This matter will be revealed. What do you think?"

Li Yourong lowered his head and said nothing. After a long time, he looked up and said, "My daughter, follow Your Majesty's arrangement."

Li Shimin laughed, no matter whether Li Yourong was sincere or false. As the emperor, as her uncle, Li Shimin wanted the result. As long as the result was satisfied, he did not care much about what Li Yourong thought in his heart.

Suddenly, he remembered what happened today and asked, "Yourong, were you next to you when Li Mu came to find his father? Why is it because of this nonsense today?"

Li Yourong did not hide it, so she told Li Shimin about the conversation between Li Mu and Li Yuan. But she was still quite conscientious and did not call Li Mu the "old man" of Li Yuan, and also the criticisms of disrespect for Li Shimin. She only said that Li Mu's abnormality today was related to Li Ji and his son.

After saying that, Li Yourong said again: "Your Majesty, speaking of it, this matter has all happened because of me. My daughter also deeply felt ashamed of General Li Ji's family. My daughter wanted to apply to Your Majesty, can I use the reward from my daughter to exchange for..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Shimin. Li Shimin said angrily: "Don't listen to that boy Li Mu's nonsense. The affairs of Li Ji and his son are related to you, but the root of it has nothing to do with you. Li Mu, this boy, dares to criticize me behind his back! He is really brave! I have to deal with him well, don't take it seriously. Take good care of my father, and I will deal with this matter."

Seeing this, Li Yourong knew what to say, but Li Shimin would not listen, so he stopped talking. At this time, Eunuch Chen slipped up again and said that Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui were here. Li Yourong took the opportunity to take care of Li Yuan and left tactfully.

When Li Yourong went out, Li Shimin looked at Eunuch Gao and said, "Gao Ken, how true do you think what she said is and how false?"

"Old I feel..." Eunuch Gao pondered for a moment and said, "At most, three points are true."
