Li Shimin's words made Li Shen completely dumbfounded. His father was also there yesterday, but why didn't he see him?

But he soon figured it out.

At the beginning, the host Zhishou said that Xuanzang had a distinguished guest, so it was inconvenient for him to meet him.

But when he forced his way in, he found no one there.

He also vaguely remembered that there were strange noises inside the house, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time.

So, his father was in the inner room when he was talking to Xuanzang.

His father heard clearly everything he said to Xuanzang.

"Oh no, oh no." Li Shen said softly.

"Humph! You still know what's wrong?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly and looked at Li Shen as if he wanted to eat him.

No way, such a small sound could be heard?

Li Shen smiled bitterly. Isn't his father already fifty years old? Shouldn't he be deaf and blind?

"Your Majesty, we would like to know whether there is any truth in the impeachment of Prince Ji for colluding with the evil monk and having evil intentions."

Gao Ji Fu stood up and bowed and asked.

"Tell me yourself, son of a traitor, have you colluded with the evil monk with any ill intentions?"

Li Shimin looked at Li Shen coldly and asked with disdain.

"Well...well...I want to ask, if it's true, what crime will he be sentenced for?"

Li Shen looked at Li Shimin and asked weakly.

Colluding with evil monks with evil intentions is a serious crime of treason, and the punishment is immediate execution.

"Immediate execution? Is it the same crime as Li Junxian's?"

"Ok?"

Everyone was stunned after hearing Li Shen's words, and then they suddenly realized.

It turns out that the Zhaojun Li family impeached Prince Ji in order to save Li Junxian. No wonder.

A mere fifth-rank official dared to impeach the extremely powerful Prince Ji.

This is for everyone to see.

Gao Ji Fu, Xiao Rui, and Zhang Sun Wuji all narrowed their eyes.

Sure enough, there is something fishy about this matter.

Prince Ji wanted to save Li Junxian, so he did this in the hall.

This is indeed very King Ji.

Li Shimin also frowned. It turned out that Li Shen's move today was to save Li Junxian.

No wonder he's so troubled.

“Your Highness Prince Ji, I don’t think now is the time to discuss Li Junxian.

Now we are all waiting for your explanation.

Is it true that Censor Li impeached His Royal Highness Prince Ji?

Just now, His Royal Highness Prince Ji admitted it himself. Is he going to change his statement now?"

Changsun Wuji stepped forward to remind him.

"Duke Zhao, isn't this the same case as Li Junxian's?

Can you believe what the king says without you?

Or if I tell you there is, you will be happy?" Li Shen turned around and faced Changsun Wuji.

"What exactly does King Ji mean?"

Changsun Wuji was not afraid of Li Shen at all.

"Of course I checked it out."

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ji was evasive in his answer and did not directly answer whether he had any ill intentions.

Since Censor Li has impeached me, I would like to ask Your Majesty to allow you, Prince Ji, to recount your conversation with Master Xuanzang yesterday.

It will also prove the innocence of His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

Changsun Wuji no longer paid any attention to Li Shen's unreasonable demands.

He saluted directly to Li Shimin.

"Well, Li Shen, tell me."

Li Shimin nodded. Since Li Shen's purpose was to plead for Li Junxian, he wanted to see what Li Shen could say.

Li Junxian was convicted not simply because he colluded with a demon.

"Yes, Aye." Li Shen bowed and said to everyone.

"Yesterday, I discussed three issues with Master Xuanzang.

The first one is how to make our Tang Dynasty last forever."

Li Shen paused and looked around.

"Then Master Xuanzang answered, obey the will of heaven, obey the will of the people, and treat the people well."

"Xuan Zang is right."

“Well, that does make some sense.”

“The second question is why so many people want to be emperor.

What Master Xuanzang said is destiny.”

"No way, you dare to ask this question?"

"This is a bit taboo."

"Prince Ji is indeed bold."

As soon as Li Shen asked his second question, many people began to discuss that Li Shen's question was a bit taboo.

Can the emperor be criticized?

However, Li Shen did not directly point out whether it was the current dynasty or the previous dynasty.

What Xuanzang said about destiny is quite normal.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, may I ask what is the third question?"

Gao Ji Fu asked, the first two questions were not excessive overall and did not violate the national law.

Then the problem must be with the third question.

Li Shen secretly glanced at Li Shimin, only to see his father looking at him with a joking expression.

He thought to himself that something was wrong, it seemed that his father was indeed in the house yesterday.

This made him feel a little embarrassed.

I wanted to set up a trap, but I didn't expect that the person involved was already in it. How can I make up this story?

Is he going to make it up anyway? Wouldn't his father expose it right away?

There was no other way, Li Shen could only tell the truth:

"Well, the third question I'm asking is... yes..."

"talk."

Li Shimin said coldly.

"What I'm asking is, how can a rebellion be successful?"

"what?"

"What?"

"Is Prince Ji crazy?"

"Prince Ji, are you trying to save someone, or are you trying to be buried with him?"

Even Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were confused. They knew that Prince Ji wanted to save Li Junxian, but now it seems that

Prince Ji might have to go ahead of Li Junxian.

"Bastard thing!"

Li Shimin slammed the table.

This rebellious son dares to say anything and is so unscrupulous. It seems that he will really go crazy if he is not punished.

He has just been behaving himself for a few days since returning from Qinghai Road, but now he is starting to cause trouble again.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Ji has already recruited workers. Please punish the crime."

The evidence was conclusive, and Choi In-ji, who had been motionless, finally found an opportunity to stand up.

"I second your motion. Your Majesty, Prince Ji wanted to rebel. He has confessed. Please punish him."

The Wang family's censor also stood up.

"Your Majesty, Prince Ji is so bold and reckless. If you don't punish him, it won't be enough to set things right. If you don't punish him, it won't be enough to set things right."

"Yes, I second the motion."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal."

The aristocratic family finally made an effort. Even if they couldn't kill King Ji, they would at least take a bite of his flesh this time.

Treason is a serious crime. Not to mention that you have done it, even if you have the thought, you are punishable by death.

Li Shimin's chest heaved with anger.

Firstly, it’s because this rebellious son actually asked such an outrageous question, and secondly, even if you asked it, why would you say it in public?

Now we are in a difficult situation and it is not going to end well.

"Li Shen, do you have anything else to say?" Now Li Shimin could only let Li Shen defend himself.

"My son asked how to succeed in a rebellion, but he didn't say I wanted to rebel.

I just want to know how to succeed and then nip it in the bud.

Are you ministers a little too excited?

Haven't you heard what I have to say yet?"

Li Shen said as he looked at the ministers who stood up.
