The second update, thank you for your reward, thank you.

Li Yuan smashed the cup hard on the ground, and the celadon cup from the Li family Jingdezhen kiln broke on the ground.

The hall calmed down.

Li Shimin gasped and retreated to the side, and Li Chao also stood aside to breathe. It was actually quite tiring to beat someone. Especially this sudden high-intensity movement, there was floor heating in the room, so warm and capable of kung fu, Li Chao already felt a little hot and sweating.

Li Yuan straightened his waist. He hadn't straightened his waist for two years.

The Supreme Emperor's face was no longer unruly and free. At this moment, he was extremely serious. Two years ago, when Li Chao carried a blood-dropping sword in his hand and led a group of generals to the lakeside of the Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an. When his son-in-law Qin Shubao asked him to issue an edict to let the Chang'an imperial guards hand over to the Qin King Li Shimin to control him, his heart was dead.

There is nothing greater than sadness.

A founding king, he kept a low profile and endured for many years, avoided Yang Guang's suspicion. He also stood out among the heroes such as Li Mi and Wang Shichong and eventually unified the Central Plains. But in the end, he did not take care of his son. His son fought for the legitimate power, but eventually took away his throne.

From then on, Li Yuan became addicted to wine, sex, voice, sex, and horses, so that he no longer thought about the government affairs, etc.

But now, he couldn't sit and see everything in front of him.

At this moment, Li Yuan seemed to have returned to the eve of the rebellion in Taiyuan.

In the past, Yang Guang asked him to face his mother-in-law, but he eventually took Yang Guang's territory and forced Yang Guang's grandson to abdicate.

Li Yuan was furious and majestic suddenly arose.

Under the gaze of all the ministers, he walked down step by step.

He walked to Yuanji, his son who was beaten by Li Shimin and Li Chao, and could not get up on the ground, and reached out to caress him. Li Yuan patted his son's clothes and used his sleeves to wipe the soles of his son's face.

He shook his head in disappointment. This son has never been successful and has never accomplished anything. He left him to stay in Taiyuan, but was beaten by Liu Wuzhou and fled in a panic.

He had no decent contributions to the command of the army and the war. In fact, he was the same as Shimin, but Shimin made countless military achievements and was deeply loved by the soldiers, but Yuanji was not a good weapon.

Today, Yuan Ji was beaten by Shimin, and Li Yuan could tolerate it.

But Li Yuan could not tolerate him being beaten in front of him.

He hated Li Chao. He was extremely favored by Li San back then and gave him a title. He treated him well, but this guy kept secretly provoking the relationship between Shimin's brothers and even provoking his father and son.

The Xuanwu Sect Incident would not have happened if it weren't for Li San, and even if it happened, it would have been impossible for him to succeed.

Li San helped Shimin win the emperor and also made him lose the throne.

Li Yuan looked at Yuan Ji and stared at his son. Yuan Ji's crazy nature had disappeared, and he had a little aggrieved and fearful eyes. He fought against the emperor in public, so how could the emperor forgive him?

He cast a look at Li Yuan asking for help.

Li Yuan shook his head in disappointment.

This son is very brave and ruthless, but he has never been just a reckless man who can't use his brain.

disappointment.

Li Yuan waved his hand and slapped his son hard in the face.

With a loud bang, the ministers were surprised again.

After slapping this slap, Li Yuan ignored Yuan Ji and turned around and walked towards Li Chao.

Li Yuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Li Shimin took a step forward and blocked Li Yuan's way forward.

"Father!"

Li Yuan gritted his teeth, "Emperor, please get out of the way. I am not the Supreme Emperor now, I am just Yuanji's father. Yuanji is not a good match. My father can teach you a lesson, and your brother can teach you a lesson, but Li Chao does not have the qualifications. He just beat Yuanji in public. Now, I want to find justice with Li Chao back."

Li Shimin shook his head.

He could not agree to the emperor's request.

"You get out of the way, I won't bully him Li Chao as his identity. He can fight me, just like before. Even if he has any skills, we will not have any helpers and we will not have to show mercy. If he is powerful, he can beat me to death. If he is not capable, then no one will blame me for being beaten to death."

Li Shimin couldn't agree.

The Supreme Emperor and the Prime Minister are fighting for a duel? What is this?

Isn’t the Supreme Emperor clearly trying to kill Li Chao with his identity? Is it true that Li Chao dares to beat the Supreme Emperor?

Besides, Li Shimin could not have let the duel between the Supreme Emperor and the Prime Minister happen. If it spreads, people in the world will laugh at him. He has decided that no word can be spread in just words. Whoever dares to spread it randomly will deal with him on the charge of leaking the banned Chinese language.

Leaking the forbidden Chinese words is a death sentence.

Even daily life notes are prohibited from recording everything that happened here today.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Li Shimin was still standing there.

Li Yuan sneered, "Hahaha, OK, I have indeed raised a good son, and I am looking at outsiders everywhere. It seems that you don't want to settle this matter privately today, so I'll just be public. I'll ask you, according to the national law, what should Li Chao be punished as a minister but beat the prince?"

Li Shimin frowned very tightly.

At this time, a voice interrupted.

"Report to the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor, Yuan Ji is not a prince, but a prince."

Li Yuan looked sideways and saw Wei Zheng, who was thin and thin, and the new censor, and was also the prime minister.

"Even if Yuan Ji is the prince, can Li Chao beat the prince?"

Wei Zheng ignored Li Yuan's glare and stood there calmly, "Yuan Ji is the legitimate son of the Supreme Emperor and the legitimate brother of today. He was once the prince, but he was demoted to the prince because he violated the national law. Yuan Ji was demoted to the prince, but he had no official position except for the title of prince. Li Chao was granted the title of Duke of Zhao. In terms of title, he was indeed not as high as Yuan Ji's prince."

"But."

"But Duke Zhao is still the Grand Marshal of the Divine Court and the Shangshu Ling. According to the system of this dynasty, the three divisions and three dukes and prime ministers are all above the titles. The three divisions and three dukes and prime ministers do not need to be courteous when they meet the royal family princes and princes. On the contrary, the princes and princes of the royal family must take the initiative to be courteous when they meet the three divisions and three dukes and prime ministers."

Wei Zheng talked happily.

"What happened just now is in full view of everyone. Everyone can see clearly. It was King Yuanji, Hailing, who was mad and mad, who attacked Prime Minister Li Chao in front. Li Xiang fought back against King Hailing in order to protect His Highness and protect His Majesty. Therefore, to judge the matter by facts, Yuanji, the subordinates were offended by the superiors, and in front of the Supreme Emperor, the emperor, the prince, the queen, etc., which endangered the safety of the prince and the emperor. He also violated the superiors and attacked the prime minister of the current dynasty."

"Yuan Ji is guilty, Li Chao is not guilty."

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, Zheng Shanguo, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Sun Fujia, the Minister of Justice, all stepped forward together, and the words of Wei Zheng, the Censor.

These three people represent the Three Laws of the Tang Dynasty and are the highest officials in the judicial world. Their words are the final explanation of the judiciary. They all say that Li Chao is not guilty and Yuan Ji is guilty. For this matter, Li Yuan wants to use the law to convict Li Chao. If it is done, it won’t work.

It is true that Li Yuanji is the son of the Supreme Emperor, nor is it true that he is the prince, but Li Chao is not an ordinary official. Li Chao is the Grand Marshal of the Three Dukes, and is the Shangshu Ling among the Prime Ministers, ranking third among the prime ministers under the Central Secretariat.

The status is above Yuanji, which is clearly stated in the Tang Dynasty's legal system.

Li Yuan stood there, the emperor's son blocked him from passing, and all the ministers used the system and laws to talk to him.

"Emperor, today, you must give me an explanation and Yuanji. Yuanji can be beaten by me or you, but you can't be beaten by an outsider. If it is spread, where is the face of the royal family?"

Li Shimin was unmoved.

"Father, I govern the country and talk about governing the country according to law. Everyone can see clearly what happened just now. It was Yuan Ji who was rude and even broke the law. Li Chao was not wrong. I cannot wrongly accuse the innocent Li Chao. Please calm your majesty. Let the matter end here. All the ministers watched it. If the trouble continued, the royal family would be even less face."

"You must give me an explanation!"

One emperor, the other emperor, both of them shouted at me, and they were frozen there, and no one was willing to give in.

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and he was silent for a moment.

"Okay, then I will give the Supreme Emperor an explanation, and I will deal with this matter in public today."

Li Shimin was also extremely angry. Yuan Ji was rude and the Supreme Emperor wanted to make trouble. To be honest, although the Xuanwu Gate Incident was forced to act helpless, Li Shimin was always guilty afterwards, especially when he felt guilty. Therefore, even though the Supreme Emperor was very dissatisfied with him, he often went to dinner with the Supreme Emperor, although he was ridiculed by the Supreme Emperor every time and was disappointed.

But today, the Supreme Emperor did not give him the emperor any face in front of his ministers, and let him lose his majesty. He even made trouble and was unable to tolerate it anymore.

"Deposed King Yuanji of Hailing as a commoner and exiled to Fangzhou."

Li Shimin told his decision to deal with it, and no longer gave this brother any mercy, deposed him as a commoner, and exiled him. Finally, he thought of a little mercy, and did not exile to Hexi or the South China Sea, but to Fangzhou not far from Xiangyang.

After hearing this decision, Li Yuan was so angry that he shivered. He raised his hand and pointed at the emperor's face. In the end, he could not say a complete sentence for a long time.

"well"

Li Shimin ignored the finger that the Supreme Emperor poked in front of him, and his eyes were cold, "The Supreme Emperor is tired, come here and send the Supreme Emperor back to the palace to rest."

After saying that, Li Shimin looked to the side and looked at the deposed prince Jiancheng who was staring at him.

The brothers looked at each other, Jiancheng turned his head guiltily, and Li Shimin withdrew his gaze, but did not deal with the brother. Today, Jiancheng was very smart and did not stand up, so Li Shimin had no reason to deal with him.

Moreover, Li Shimin was not willing to exile Li Jiancheng now. He was still a little worried about this brother. He could not make any waves when exiled Jiancheng. Li Shimin had almost collected his old subordinates. However, he was still worried that Jiancheng would be used by those who were interested.

It would be better to stay by your side, which would make people feel more at ease.

General Zuo Yulin Hou Junji came over and stood next to Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty, I escort Your Majesty back to the palace to rest!"

Li Yuan's teeth were almost broken, staring at his son Li Shimin, but Li Shimin stopped looking at him. He finally glared at Li Chao, and Li Chao had a smile on his face. That smile made him wish he could pick up the knife and put his two eyeballs on him ********** hahahahahaha!"

Li Yuan laughed loudly and turned around and left. The laughter was extremely lonely.
