Li Shimin looked at Fang Yiai and Li You, and how could he not understand that the person Fang Yiai beat yesterday should be Li You.

Although Li You was full of flaws, they were still his own flesh and blood. No matter how unsatisfactory he was, as long as he did not kill his father and destroy the country, Li Shimin really did not think of blaming his own son who had no ability to take the lead.
Disobeying the imperial edict, going out to hunt privately, hurting people and destroying fields, and even trampling on people's graves. If these things were to fall into the hands of a bold and cruel censor, Li You, who had already been treated badly by Fang Yiai, would
Even if he didn't die, he would shed his skin, and then he would be dismissed from his official position and demoted to a commoner.
If he is really demoted to a commoner, what is the difference between Li Youwen's incompetence in martial arts and his incompetent virtues and his direct execution?
Although Fang Yiai was suspected of taking advantage of the situation to vent his anger and retaliate against Li You, Li Shimin had to admit that Fang Yiai's move not only safeguarded the reputation of the royal family, but also saved himself, the emperor, from embarrassment, and also gave Li You a lesson.
The profound lesson not only eliminated Li You from being bitten by the censors, but also saved Li You from the tragic fate of being demoted to a commoner and spending half his life in poverty.
Another point is that Li Shimin has asked people to verify that among the people who went hunting with Li You yesterday, or their fathers, brothers, or close grandparents, there was always someone in the family who served in the guards who guarded the safety of the capital!
Li Shimin couldn't tolerate being uneasy after finding out such a situation.
After he warned him, Li You was still trying to win over people in the army, and this time he even recruited several people from the guards who were guarding the capital!
He, Li You, stretched his hand into the Gyeonggi Guards. What did he want to do?! Kill his father and brother, and then usurp the throne?
Seeing Li You standing cautiously below, secretly checking his expression from time to time, Li Shimin really didn't want to believe his guess.
However, Fang Yiai used Shu'er's mouth to expose the matter to herself today, which was able to save the father-son relationship between herself and Li You in time, and even forced Li You to give up his previous relationship in order to protect himself.
He just managed to win over the families who accompanied him on the hunt yesterday.
At the same time, it also eliminated the possibility of Li You wooing the Gyeonggi guards again. After all, no one would follow a master who might abandon him as an abandoned son at any time.
You can also take the opportunity to give the Gyeonggi guards a good beating to avoid having any unwanted thoughts!
However, Li You has stayed in the capital for a long time, and it's time to go back to Qidi State. Otherwise, the longer he stays in the capital, the more he will get distracted, and maybe one day the bond between father and son will really be broken.

Li Shimin has experienced war between blood relatives, and that feeling is really uncomfortable. Really, it's not uncomfortable at all.
If it were possible, Li Shimin really didn't want his children to experience blood fratricide. It would be a nightmare that would gnaw at the heart and disturb the soul all the time, making people unable to live in peace!
Thinking of his fifth son, who had always had no ambitions, Li Shimin felt that the child's big thoughts must be related to the fact that Concubine Yin asked him to enter the palace from time to time. The woman who instigated her son in this way should be beaten hard.
Thinking about it, Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun. The couple had shared hardships and wealth for many years. Empress Changsun naturally understood the meaning in Li Shimin's eyes. She then showed Li Shimin a smile that said, "I'm in the harem, don't worry." She said that she would be fine again.
Teach the concubine Yin.
Li Shimin withdrew his gaze, educated Li You a few words, and asked Li You to personally deal with those who framed and slandered him, while Fang Yiai checked on the side.
He had to give up the people he had finally managed to win over, just like a gecko cutting off its tail to protect itself. Li You felt heartache, liver pain, headache, flesh pain, and body aches.
However, thinking about his own wealth and life, Li You still decisively agreed to Li Shimin's instructions, saying that he would seriously investigate and deal with those people with bad intentions.
As for the long-awaited order to be grounded and pondered over in disguise, Li You no longer cared much about it. He was thinking about minimizing his losses while ensuring his own safety.
Fang Yiai was slightly stunned by Li Shimin's order, and then peeked at Li Shimin's expression from the corner of her eye.
Cursing in his heart, isn't Li Shimin worried that he will take this opportunity to draw people who are dissatisfied with Li You into the camp of Li Chengqian's princeling party?
As if feeling something, Li Shimin shot a sharp look at Fang Yiai.
Fang Yiai quickly lowered her head and lowered her brows, curled her lips secretly, and thought to herself, since you are worried and scared, why did you bring me in and not let me check this matter? Then you will lose the source of worry, and I will also
It can save a lot of things.
Is it possible that Li Shimin was afraid that the house would be deserted during the New Year this year, so he found something to do for himself so that the house could have a few more guests visiting this year?
Glancing at Li You next to him, Fang Yiai sighed, understanding that Li Shimin definitely didn't have such good intentions.
Letting myself supervise the painful matter of Li You abandoning and dealing with his own confidant, wouldn't it be clear that he wants to antagonize Li You so that Li You doesn't want to see him anymore, or Li You will hate himself because of this.
Fang Yiai twitched the corner of her mouth, glanced at Li Shimin, and thought to herself, could it be that she was not satisfied with confronting Li Tai, the king of Wei, and now she wanted Qi Wang Li You to also fight against her?
Could it be that he wanted to be hated by the two princes, so that the only person who could protect him was Prince Li Chengqian, so that he could be loyal to Li Chengqian wholeheartedly?
Li Zhi has been led astray by himself. He no longer has the emperor's thoughts, and even regards being an emperor as the most painful thing in the world. Even if the throne is given to him, Li Zhi may not be willing to sit on it now.
As for Li Ke, whose knowledge and temperament were considered worthy of being emperor, Li Shimin had clearly given up on his desire to succeed to the throne and left Lizhou far away.
After all, among Li Shimin's sons, the only one who is truly qualified and the most suitable to inherit the throne is Prince Li Chengqian.
He had been labeled as the prince early on. If Li Chengqian did not succeed to the throne, even if he was left in the court, no matter who succeeded him, he might not have good results.
Therefore, among Li Shimin's sons, except for Li Chengqian, there are really few that he can like.
If he doesn't choose to support Li Chengqian to securely ascend to the throne, is there any other way out? Therefore, there is no need for Li Shimin to offend another prince so that he can be completely trapped by Li Chengqian's side.
Secretly despising Li Shimin for thinking too much, Fang Yiai secretly decided that she would never let Li You hate her. Of course, she had no intention of getting into a relationship with Li You. As long as the two of them could return to the way they were before yesterday.
This kind of relationship can be achieved by nodding and greeting each other to the extreme.
In fact, compared to Fang Yiai, what Li You hated the most was the person who couldn't see the situation clearly and foolishly pointed out his identity!
As for Fang Yiai, Li You had long regarded her as a passerby and put her aside.
Because Li Shimin's order was for Fang Yiai to watch Li You handle the matter from the sidelines, when Li You dealt with his own people, he had to let Fang Yiai, a person who "did not understand the details", watch from the sidelines.
Li You had an awkward look on his face, but Fang Yiai chose to ignore it deliberately, pretending to let him do whatever he wanted without interfering.
Fang Yiai's move really made Li You feel better.
Of course, because Fang Yiai followed, Fang Yiai was able to choose the right moment, which saved the life of the person who accompanied King Qi on the hunt that day, and also allowed King Qi Li You to vent a lot of the depression in his chest, and his mood was also considered good.
Barely feeling a little better.
In this way, although Fang Yiai did not deliberately win over those people, people still felt a lot of gratitude towards her.
These people also determined in their hearts that the King of Qi was not a reliable person, an assistable person, and a candidate for the monarch with great ambitions.
They didn't know that it was precisely because of their disappointment and chill in King Qi that they avoided the possibility of being affected by war in the future.
Some people who were implicated by their short-sighted family members and who had not thought highly of King Qi Li You before, after accepting Fang Yiai's kindness, began to slowly move closer to the prince Li Chengqian who was supported by Fang Yiai.
Fang Yiai followed behind and watched Li You deal with this matter. Not only did she get a lot of practical benefits along the way, but she also brought a few hearts to Li Chengqian without leaving a trace.
Through hard work, Fang Yiai successfully eliminated some of Li You's doubts and bad impressions about him, but she also made it clear to Li You that she only wanted to maintain the previous acquaintance with Li You and did not want to have anything too much.
involve.
Knowing that Fang Yiai's relationship with the prince was unusual and that he could not win over him, Li You stopped thinking about poaching Fang Yiai.
Regarding Fang Yiai helping him cover up the facts and evade Li Shimin's punishment, Li You just prepared a good gift, and in time for New Year's Eve, while Fang Yiai was not in his house, he had someone give it to him.
At Fang Yiai's home, the previous events were covered up by these gifts, and everyone still resumed their previous nodding acquaintance.
On New Year's Eve, Fang Yiai and Shuer stayed together with Fang Xuanling and others at Fang Mansion.
When she was young, watching her servants lighting a fire in the spacious yard and burning bamboo tubes to listen to the sound, Fang Yiai began her annual routine of trying to recall the formula for making gunpowder and the results every time.
It's all regrets, regrets about why I didn't love thermal weapons and ordnance in my previous life?
On the second day of the new year, Changsun Huan and his wife went into the palace to join in the fun with Queen Changsun. Changsun Huan took the opportunity to invite Li Chengqian out who was rarely free.
Fang Yiai and others straightened out their ideas about the mutual market and other things that they had discussed before, and told them to Li Chengqian so that Li Chengqian could evaluate them first.
Some of the questions raised by Li Chengqian had been prepared by Fang Yiai and others a long time ago. Naturally, they answered every question, and the answers were well-founded and clear.
It was in the best interest of the country, so Li Chengqian was naturally concerned about it. Everyone was thinking about whether there was anything that could be done to fix the problem. He went back to the East Palace to discuss it carefully with the think tanks in the East Palace.
