If Binzhou is defeated, Chang'an will be exposed to the iron hoof of the Turks!
When Li Shimin thought of this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his head.
"Mr. Xu, what do you mean?"
His heart quickened slightly.
"Just think about it, the emperor is at the Lishan Palace right now, eating barbecue and singing songs, and suddenly he is invaded by barbarians, who are about to attack him!"
Xu Fenglei asked with a smile,
"What do you think his expression will be?"
"How will Prince Qi and the ministers feel?"
Li Shimin patted the dust on his body and straightened his tattered clothes.
"Based on my understanding of my father, even if he is not panicked, he will definitely feel uneasy."
He thought for a moment and said with a hint of contempt,
"As for the Crown Prince, King Qi, and his ministers, hehe..."
"Li Jing and Li Shiji are both stationed outside. The people in the court are probably thinking about moving the capital to avoid disaster. They are too useless, so don't mention it!"
Obviously, Li Er has a relatively good understanding of the general situation of the court.
There is a lot of waste and few elites.
The few capable ministers basically have a good relationship with him.
After all, only people traveling together can pee in the same pot!
"Your Highness is right, the matter is urgent, but there is no one available in the court! So when the emperor is anxious, who will he think of?"
Xu Fenglei is good at tempting.
A light flashed in Li Shimin's eyes.
"Me?" He hesitated slightly, but his tone soon became certain.
Looking at everyone in the imperial court, I am afraid that only I, Li Shimin, can handle such a difficult war!
"Of course."
Xu Fenglei helped Li Shimin dust off his shoulders and said with a slight smile,
"I predict that the edict pardoning His Highness will arrive soon!"
"Although we violated the law, we actually complied with the emperor's wishes and rescued His Highness, just a little ahead of schedule."
"I don't think the emperor will pursue His Highness for such a trivial matter in the face of a formidable enemy, right?"
After hearing these words, Li Shimin's brows finally relaxed and a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"Sir, you are so clever!"
He waved to Changsun Wuji and said,
"I'm hungry, here's the cake!"
As soon as his mood improved, Li Er's appetite increased and his stomach finally whined.
He had been tortured for the past two days and he was already hungry.
"Here, Your Highness." Changsun Wuji quickly served the naan cakes.
Bang Chi Bang Chi.
Li Shimin took a mouthful of naan bread and a mouthful of water, wolfing it down like a refugee fleeing from famine.
This pancake, which I usually dislike as dry and gritty, has now become a supreme delicacy!
Seeing King Qin's gesture, everyone in the Tiance Mansion was both amused and distressed.
This must be a lot of suffering!
"I want to beat that bitch too."
Cheng Yaojin clenched his fists, looked at the dying prison officer who fell beside the official road, and gritted his teeth.
Several generals are ready to make a move.
"Zhijie, Jingde is fooling around, are you also fooling around?"
Li Shimin swallowed a piece of cake and whispered,
"He belongs to King Qi, don't cause trouble."
Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, then turned away and relieved his murderous intention.
"I wonder where did he get the courage? How dare he abuse His Highness? It turns out he is from King Qi."
Xu Fenglei said thoughtfully,
"Perhaps the person in the world who most wishes for your death, Your Highness, is King Qi."
"This man is cruel and ruthless, and has often devised evil schemes. Could it be that this time, His Highness... he fell into the hands of King Qi?"
Everyone looked at Li Shimin with questioning expressions.
There are many rumors about the reasons behind King Qin's imprisonment, some are extremely outrageous, and some are relatively reliable, but they are all untenable.
Only what Li Shimin tells personally is the truth!
"I regret not listening to your husband's words before leaving. I did fall into the hands of King Qi this time."
Li Shimin looked ashamed, sighed softly, and said,
"To be honest, I was careless..."
He narrated the matter in general, and everyone in Tiance Mansion was astonished.
"Huh? That's it?"
Changsun Wuji couldn't help but said,
"Just because of the so-called 'I have destiny', Your Majesty will indiscriminately put you in jail without even giving you a chance to argue?"
"Your Majesty, is he old and confused?!"
Even though he was of high quality, he couldn't help but want to use foul language at this moment.
Is the emperor out of his mind? Can such a serious crime be cured with just one sentence?
"Don't be rude." Li Shimin reprimanded and shook his head. "It's true that I was careless. King Qi caught the conversation and couldn't refute it. After all, I did say something similar."
"Half truths and half lies are the hardest to detect."
Xu Fenglei nodded and said,
"Of course, this can also be seen from the side that the emperor has lost trust in you, Your Highness."
"It's probably someone who turned a deaf ear to him, or a concubine like Zhang Jieyu, or a favorite like Pei Ji, who lobbied the emperor and destroyed the emperor's trust in you first."
"If this were not the case, the emperor would not have such a big reaction to this matter."
"Your Highness is in Lishan. Are you too pushy and threatening someone?"
Li Shimin: "..."
"I can't hide anything from you, sir."
He felt ashamed and said,
"On this trip to Lishan Mountain, my father called me to ride on the dragon chariot. I won the first place in hunting and was awarded a red bow and arrows. However, the prince did not hunt well and was reprimanded."
"There are rumors among the ministers that my father wants to be saved. Although I don't really believe it, I do feel a little proud."
"Now that I think about it, if I were the prince, I would probably be uneasy and take action."
Everyone was stunned.
It turns out that this is the crux!
"Everything has an effect and a reason. But Your Highness, don't be ashamed. You didn't do anything wrong."
Xu Fenglei said softly,
"It's just that you need to be more cautious in the future. After all, you are going to take an unusual path."
Li Shimin nodded.
"Thank you for your teaching, Mr., I understand."
He cupped his hands and sighed softly,
"It's just that my previous plan was in vain due to my negligence..."
"In the eyes of my father, I may just be a tool that can be used to resist the Turks, rather than a real son who is close to my flesh and bones..."
"In the game with Prince Qi, I also fell into a passive position, alas!"
Li Shimin felt frustrated.
Li Yuanji severely blocked him from saying anything.
The image of a good son that he had finally built up with his father suddenly collapsed.
All this is because of my own carelessness!
True to Xu Fenglei's words, when people are happy, they will be relaxed.
When you get carried away, disaster will come quietly.
"Your Highness, don't be discouraged. In my opinion, we have every opportunity to turn passivity into initiative."
Xu Fenglei smiled and said,
"King Qi has tricked you, do you want to take revenge and go back?"
Li Shimin: "?!"
"Of course I do!" He gritted his teeth and said, "Li Yuanji is the most abominable!"
"I just don't know how to fight back?"
"Here." Xu Fenglei pointed at the miserable-looking prison officer, smiled mysteriously, and said, "I'll leave it to this person."
