A few more months passed.
In the twelfth lunar month, heavy snow fell from the sky, and the cold wind howled, but within half an hour the earth was covered with a layer of white snow.
Within a few months, no one knew how many nights of ecstasy the prince Li Zhi spent with Wu Zhao.
Li Zhi was like a man possessed. As long as the two met each other, Pinyu would follow closely, playing the flute, flirting with each other, and releasing his desires without hesitation.
Another night, Wu Zhao lay next to Li Zhi and asked, "Do you like it?"
Li Zhi said without hesitation: "I like it, I want to be with you forever, forever!"
Hearing these serious words, Wu Zhao was slightly startled.
Li Zhi thought she was suspicious of something, so he quickly continued: "I didn't lie to you, I really can't live without you!"
"I feel like with you by my side, I can do anything and dare to do anything!"
Wu Zhao said calmly: "Has Your Highness thought clearly about what to do with your princess?"
Li Zhi sighed: "I was forced by my father. Although we live together, we can't talk about love."
"Isn't she beautiful?"
"Beautiful, but we have no feelings."
"Where are the other wives and concubines? How many do you have?"
"Five of them were all recommended by the minister and my uncle. None of them are as good as you!"
"What's not as good as me?"
"Not as good as...not as good as the cry of the phoenix magpie in the forest that night."
Wu Zhao's face suddenly turned red: "You... you are such a scoundrel..."
"Wait! There's someone outside!"
Wu Zhao suddenly felt someone outside. He immediately put on his clothes, turned off the oil lamp, and leaned against the door.
"Where are people? People!?"
When Li Zhi heard someone, he immediately became confused.
Wu Zhao frowned slightly. She clearly felt someone was outside just now. Could it be from the Xuantian Sect?
"Are you dazzled?"
Wu Zhao said calmly: "To be honest with you, Your Highness, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I did feel someone was outside the door just now."
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment.
"It's over! What should I do if someone sees this and reports it to my father?"
Wu Zhao frowned slightly at Li Zhi's appearance and said, "Don't panic, you are the prince. Apart from His Majesty, who else is older than you in this palace? So what if he sees it? Do you dare to say it casually?"
"No, if the Imperial Master saw it, he would not only dare to say it!"
"What nonsense are you talking about, Your Highness? The Imperial Master is busy running business all day long. How could he sneak into the palace late at night?"
Although Wu Zhao said this, he couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.
If he is discovered now, he may not be able to get out of Chang'an alive even if Li Zhi protects him.
"Your Highness, I'm going back first."
After the words fell, Wu Zhao dressed up and came to Li Zhi and held his cheek: "Your Highness, you have to remember that you are the future emperor. No one can refute your words. How can you be so panicked when something happens? What do you think? Nothing happened!”
Looking at Wu Zhao with a calm face, Li Zhi felt a little blushing for a moment.
Li Shimin had been teaching him not to panic when something happened, but he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
"Okay, I get it!"
Wu Zhao sighed softly, everyone said that a tiger father has no dog son, why is there such a big gap?
Not long after she left, a eunuch came outside.
"Your Highness, hurry up! His Majesty's illness has worsened!"
"What!?"
Li Zhi quickly got up and ran out with the eunuch.
Within a moment, the two came to Li Shimin's training place.
As he passed by, there were several ministers standing on both sides, and he vaguely heard an angry roar coming from inside!
Li Zhi's heart trembled.
Could it be that it was known?
Ashamed, scared, and many other emotions lingered in his mind.
He couldn't help but slow down. Compared with death, he was more afraid of being rumored to have committed adultery and civil strife. It was a heinous crime. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty took advantage of his father's bed to commit adultery with Mrs. Xuanhua. The incident is still being reviled by the world.
What would he do if word got out?
"You bastard! What a bastard! You are adulterous and shameless. How could I have a child like this! She has completely disgraced me!"
boom!
Strong internal energy fluctuations came from the room, and the furious Li Shimin's voice scared the ministers outside to tremble.
Immediately afterwards, you could hear Li Shimin coughing violently.
Li Zhi took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and knelt directly outside the room door.
"Father, it's the child's fault. You can beat me and scold me, or destroy me. It's all my fault..."
At this moment, a figure suddenly came over, covered his mouth, and pulled him up.
"Prince, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Zhi glanced at the people around him. They had ordinary faces, but their hair seemed a little yellowish.
"Who are you?"
"I am the Minister of Punishment, Zhou Min. He has been dealing with matters and rarely shows up. It is not surprising that His Highness does not know about it."
Li Zhi quickly asked: "What did you mean just now?"
Zhou Min whispered: "Princess Gaoyang committed adultery, and His Majesty was furious. Your Majesty, were you frightened just now? What do you want to say?"
Li Zhi's throat rolled: "Sister Gao Yang...it turns out to be her..."
Thinking of this, Li Zhi suddenly widened his eyes: "No! My sister committed adultery?"
inside the room.
Headed by Li Yunxiao, below stood Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng, Changsun Wuji and other ministers.
"I'm so angry, really so angry! She...he actually committed adultery with a monk!"
"Yuan Tiangang!"
"I'm here!"
"Cut the monk Bian Ji into pieces. Everyone involved in this matter, from officials to servants, will die!"
"My lord, take your orders!"
Yuan Tiangang opened the door and left without any hesitation.
Li Shimin rubbed his forehead and felt a tightness in his chest.
Whether it was his father, brother, or nephew, no matter how much he was killed or crippled, did he have to deal with a daughter before he died?
Li Chunfeng saw Li Shimin's hesitation and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, I feel that Princess Gaoyang is still young and the monk is so eloquent that I deceived the princess. Why don't you let her be expelled from the Tang Dynasty like Cheng Qian?" "
Li Shimin glanced at Li Chunfeng with some gratitude.
"You are right, come here, tell me my will, abolish the status of Princess Gaoyang, and drive out of Chang'an. "As long as I live! "I never want to see her again!"
Li Chunfeng saluted: "Leave this matter to me."
"good."
After Li Chunfeng left, Li Shimin waved his hand: "Ask everyone to come in, I have something to say."
"yes!"
The eunuch on the side saluted, and after leaving for a moment, a group of civil and military officials entered the room in a somewhat crowded manner.
In just half a stick of incense, Li Shimin demoted many ministers from their official positions. This approach stunned Li Zhi.
I don't understand why my father is so angry.
Everyone looked at Li Shimin who was going crazy with trembling fear. Many people didn't know why they were demoted.
At this moment, Li Zhi's sweaty hand was held, and then he heard a voice whispering:
"If you are a king, hesitation and worry are essential. You must face your heart bravely and face obstacles and tribulations bravely!"
Li Zhi nodded and couldn't help breathing easier.
