When Li Shimin entered Changle Palace, he saw the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan shivering with his head and barefoot, wearing a double-breasted robe, holding a pipa and playing with the two palace maids.

Looks like a rosy complexion is pretty good.

"Erlang is here, sit down." Li Yuan raised his head and continued to play his pipa.

Li Shimin sat next to him and his face was not very good-looking. The Supreme Emperor asked someone to report that he was sick and wanted to see him. Li Shimin was pretending to be sick for a while, and after Yuan Ji asked him to exile, he was unwilling to see the Supreme Emperor's bad face, so he simply didn't come for a long time.

After the song was played, Li Yuan sighed while holding the pipa.

"It's the best match between Pei Ji and Feng Lun and my pipa."

"Where is your majesty uncomfortable?" Li Shimin asked with a helping heart.

Li Yuan rolled his eyes and still held the pipa, "Didn't the emperor always call him sick? But I see that you are like this now, your face is rosy, your walking is windy, and you don't feel sick at all."

Li Shimin pretended to be sick himself. Now after Li Yuan said that, he understood that the Supreme Emperor was also pretending to be sick.

"Since the Supreme Emperor is in good health, I am very happy. I will go back to the palace if I have nothing to do." Li Shimin was about to leave as he said that.

The father and son are now talking less and less.

After exiling Yuanji, Li Shimin was too lazy to maintain his appearance in the past.

"Wait a minute." Li Yuan called his son. He put the pipa aside, tied his hair up, tied up a brocade belt, walked to his son and sat down.

"Erlang, can't we father and son even say something now?"

"Why did Your Majesty say this?" Li Shimin's voice was very cold.

Li Yuan sighed, very lonely.

"Erlang, I want to go back to Chang'an."

Li Shimin looked up at Li Yuan, "All the officials of the court and the officials of the court are here. Your Majesty will not take care of you when you return to Chang'an. Just be here, so I can serve you all the time."

"I'm just serving me, I'm just a prisoner, the Supreme Emperor? Why not call it a deposed emperor?" Li Yuan suddenly roared.

Li Shimin had a dark face and did not say a word.

"I don't care about those things. Even if I go to jail, I want to go back to Chang'an and would rather be imprisoned in Tai Chi Palace."

"Impossible." Li Shimin said politely.

He was worried that the deposed prince Jiancheng would be outside, and of course he was worried that the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan would return to Chang'an.

Now he claims to be sick and does not court, and the prince inherits the country to ease the contradictions caused by the reform of the new law. If the Supreme Emperor returns to Chang'an, then the old powerful and noble gentry of Guanzhong will support the Supreme Emperor to restore the throne, wouldn't this cause trouble for himself?

"I didn't think about anything else, I just wanted to go there to retire. Anyway, I guess I won't have a few years to live." Li Yuan is still very young, fifty-nine years old this year.

He was able to immediately shoot more than seventy bows and shoot dozens of thieves. However, behind the Xuanwu Gate, he was depressed and stayed in the palace to give birth to a child all day long. He was addicted to alcohol and sex and could not extricate himself, and his body quickly emptied him.

Now this body is no longer good.

"Since you are not feeling well, you should stay here and keep it." The emperor said.

Li Yuan was extremely angry.

"I'm afraid I'll be shorter than I'll live here. I'll be full of things that don't like, and it's unpleasant to make things feel unpleasant. If I stay here for a long time, I'll die early."

"If your Majesty has nothing else, I'll go back."

"Wait."

Li Yuan called Li Shimin.

"I know that now that you have a hard wing, you can do whatever you want. I can't control the things in your court, what new laws and reforms are, and I don't want to control them. Whether you have to fight with the Turks, go to war with Goguryeo at the same time, or even your reforms offend all the nobles, bureaucrats and gentry in the world at once, I don't want to care. But since you are the emperor, sometimes you have to worry about gaining reputation."

Li Shimin had a dark face.

"Don't think that I don't know anything when I stay in this Beigong. Yuanji was exiled, and you refused to let go of his sons and exiled them. But you left his woman and took it to your own palace. Don't you think this is too much? Is that your brother's woman or his wife?"

Li Yuan said angrily.

Li Shimin's expression on his face was a little unnatural. It was always not good to be questioned by his father in person.

"Yuan Ji abused Yang, don't your Majesty know?"

"Yuan Ji has not been very good to Yang in the past two years, but that is also a matter between them and their husbands. Even if he does something wrong, you can take care of it. But now you just take the person into your palace. What kind of bullshit is this? Are you a brother or an emperor like this?"

"Are you going to take away all the things you like? Jiancheng's position as the crown prince, my emperor, is your brother's wife now? Are you still a human being? Beast!" Li Yuan cursed.

This is the first time since Xuanwu Gate that he scolded his son like this. He endured himself before, at most he mocked him a few words, but today, he was really angry.

Anyway, I guess I won't live long, so I don't care much about angering this son.

Li Shimin looked ugly, and he felt angry when he was scolded, but he was a little ashamed.

The matter with Princess Qi Yang is indeed wrong and does not conform to the ethical principles. But sometimes, this is how things happen.

Yang was abused, beaten and scolded by Yuan Ji, and could not bear it. Sometimes she would complain to her sister. Her sister was a concubine of Li Shimin. When she knew about it, she told Li Shimin to ask him to come forward to help.

This was normal at first.

But later, for some reason, the two met each other. Then, after a house banquet in the palace, Li Shimin left Yang and got together.

Yuan Ji was exiled, and Li Shimin left the Yang family.

Now that the Yang family has been taken into the palace by Li Shimin, many people know about the relationship between the two.

"I let Yang and Yuan Ji live together."

Li Shimin also knew that this was not good for his reputation, but whenever he saw Yang, he always felt pity for her and cared for this woman.

"Fuck, even if Yang and Yuan Ji are separated, even if she wants to marry again, I won't care. But everyone in the world can marry Yang, but you can't. That's your sister-in-law."

"This is my private matter." Li Shimin gritted his teeth.

"What are the personal affairs of the emperor? Which of yours is not a state affairs? I originally thought that you did well in the past two years and were quite ambitious. But what are you doing now? I spoil Li Chao and make new laws and reforms? What else can I do besides increasing taxes and plundering everywhere? Is it also expanding the army, raising regular soldiers, and supporting the imperial court?"

"You didn't even sit on the dragon throne, and you were in trouble everywhere. You fought against the Turks, Goguryeo, and Tubo. Are you going to fight all the surrounding countries? Now, you are still sick every day and don't go to court, and hand over the national affairs to the eight-year-old prince Chengqian. What do you want to do? You hide in the palace every day without seeing anyone, just to play with your sister-in-law?"

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"The prisoner's father You and Liu brothers usurped the throne, and now he took his sister-in-law and used troops everywhere, increased taxes everywhere, and tried every means to plunder money. This son made Li Yuan increasingly unbearable.

"Yang Guang was called a tyrant and a tyrant. But at least in the five or six years since Yang Guang succeeded to the throne, he worked hard and was very diligent. In the first few years of the Great Sui Dynasty, he was still very prosperous and strong. But what about you, you are not even as good as the tyrant Yang Guang. You have only been the emperor for two years and started to act recklessly. Do you want the Tang Dynasty to die in the second lifetime?"

"I am not Yang Guang, nor will I be a fool, nor will I be a tyrant. I will be a wise monarch of the generation, and I will create the prosperous era of Zhenguan."

"Bah, Yang Guang was ambitious back then and wanted to create great achievements. Even if you are like this, you are not even as good as Yang Guang. You are also creating great achievements in Zhenguan. Let me return to Chang'an, and I will not be upset."

Li Shimin looked up at the angry Li Yan, "I will let you see the prosperous Zhenguan era." After saying that, he ignored Li Yuan and left with a shook his sleeves.

"Rebellious son, beast!"

Li Yuan jumped from behind and cursed.

He felt angry and Li Shimin returned to his palace.

Sitting in the palace, he was sulking. Today, he was scolded by the Supreme Emperor, and he was three points angry and seven points shameful. After all, he couldn't take the matter with Yang.

"I will not be Yang Guang, nor will I be a foolish monarch. My Zhenguan will not be the great cause of the Sui Dynasty. The great cause is just a waste, but my Zhenguan will create a prosperous era." Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said to himself.

He felt angry in his heart. Li Shimin stopped going anywhere, so he sat in the imperial study room and began to read the memorials sent by the Secretary of the Central Committee.

Now the prince is in charge of the country, but in fact, the subordinates of the Zhongshu are still dealing with political affairs. After the subordinates of the Zhongshu make a decision, they will hand it over to the prince for review. The prince generally does not reject the decision of the Zhongshu, but only criticizes the name Ke with a red pen, and then returns to the Zhongshu, and then hand it over to the Shangshu Province for execution.

Of course, this is the surface. In fact, no matter what decisions the Secretary of the Central Committee make, he will submit a memorial to the emperor, and the prince’s approval must be sent to the emperor first.

If Li Shimin had any opinions or other ideas, he would write a note and send it to the Secretary of the Central Committee.

This system is a bit similar to the cabinet in the Ming Dynasty. The cabinet proposed a vote and the emperor criticized the winner.

The real idea is actually the prime ministers.

"His Majesty."

"Hebei urgent report!"

"It's a great victory!"

The eunuch Wang knew that the emperor was unhappy after returning from Changle Palace today, so he never came to disturb him. However, he ran in and reported the matter with an excited look on his face.

"Is it Li Chao who won the battle? He drove the Goguryeo out?"

"Your Majesty, not only that, Li Xiang wiped out 50,000 Goguryeo people and captured Quan Gai Suwen alive!"

Li Shimin suddenly looked up, "Really?"

This news is too shocking.

He knew how many people Li Chao brought. In the battle of Ruhe, he used 35,000 people, and most of them were volunteer soldiers. He defeated 20,000 Goguryeo cavalry in a frontal battle and killed 4,000 in formation, which shocked him. He thought that Li Chao was in Pingzhou and waited for the troops from Huainan, Henan and other places to arrive, and join forces to drive the Goguryeo out of Hebei.

But unexpectedly, he actually wiped out 50,000 Goguryeo people?

"Li Xiang fought with Quanga Suwen in Zhaozhuang..."

After listening to the eunuch Wang’s detailed description of the bloody battle between Zhao Zhuang, Li Shimin was also excited and excited when he heard it.

Li Chao's courage, Yuchi Gong's fierceness, and Pingyang's Thousand Miles of Rescue.

"The formation was cut at 18,000, and the captive was captured 20,000 yuan, and Quangai Suwen was captured alive. No Goguryeo dog was let go. Five thousand invaded Liao dogs were wiped out. OK, the battle was so beautiful. I did not use it wrong, Li Chao looked good."

Li Shimin slapped his thighs violently, and the slap was slapping.

I was unhappy just now, but now it is completely unobstructed.

"Your Majesty, there is another news that Li Xiang has led 50,000 troops out of Yu Pass and marched eastward to western Liaoning!"
