Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 110 Redemption

Although Gao Ming himself could not want anything, the rewards from Zhang Sizheng and Li Goudan were indispensable. After all, they worked so hard for him.

As a high-ranking person, it is very important to distinguish between rewards and punishments, Gao Ming sees this very clearly.

Therefore, when Gao Ming asked Li Goudan and Zhang Sizheng to step down, he began to think about how to speak to Li Shimin.

But Gao Ming only thought for a few seconds before sighing dejectedly.

"Hey, Lao Li may not be in a good mood today, let's do it tomorrow!"

Li You was taken away by Qianniuwei outside Chang'an City. It is conceivable how bad Li Shimin's mood is at this time, so Gao Ming decided to avoid the limelight first, and go to see him tomorrow when Li Shimin is in a better mood , By the way, help Li Goudan and Zhang Sizheng get an official.

Gao Ming's plan is naturally very reasonable, but sometimes when things come, you can't hide. Even if it is unreasonable, you can only bite the bullet. This is what people often say that you can't help yourself.

And Gao Ming encountered such a thing.

Less than an hour after Li Goudan and Zhang Sizheng left the East Palace, a beautiful woman entered the East Palace weeping. After seeing Gao Ming, she knelt down with a "plop".

"Wuuu...Prince, please save my Yuer, your father is going to kill him, wuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Although Gao Ming didn't know this woman, he could tell that she was here for Li You, and the whole palace would beg for Li You, except for his mother.

Therefore, Gao Ming quickly judged the identity of this woman, she was Li You's biological mother—Concubine Yin!
Thinking of this, Gao Ming quickly stepped forward to help her up.

"Well... you should get up first, we don't like kneeling in the Tang Dynasty, and besides, it's not appropriate for you to kneel to me, right?"

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Concubine Yin cried and shook her head.

"This concubine doesn't care about so much now. You'er has caused a catastrophe, and now you are the only one who can save him. You must save him. I only have such a son, huh... "

Gao Ming knew that Concubine Yin must have known that Li You had been arrested by someone, so she ran to the East Palace to beg for herself, so seeing Concubine Yin who was already in tears, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Gao Ming's face .

In fact, Concubine Yin is also a poor woman, and the Yin family and the Li family are still feuds.

Concubine Yin's father, Yin Shishi, was a hussar general in the Sui Dynasty. After Li Yuan rebelled in Taiyuan, Yin Shishi killed Li Yuan's fifth son, Li Zhiyun, so Li Yuan also found a reason to put Yin Shi into Chang'an. The teacher was killed.

When Yin Shishi was killed, his son Yin Hongzhi was still young, so he escaped with his life, and his daughter Yin Shi married Li Shimin, who is now Yin Concubine.

From this point of view, Concubine Yin and Concubine Yang are really similar. One is the daughter of the Hussar General of the Sui Dynasty, and the other is the daughter of the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty. Not a concubine, just a trophy.

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately looked at Concubine Yin with sympathy.

"Her father was killed by Lao Li's father before, and now her son is about to be killed by Lao Li. This woman is really pitiful!"

Gao Ming is a person who is easy to soften his heart, especially towards women, so seeing Concubine Yin who was already crying into tears, he immediately sighed helplessly.

"Okay, don't cry first, I'll help you walk there, by the way, where are they now?"

"It's in the Imperial Study Room, Prince, you must save him, woo woo..."

Looking at the sad Concubine Yin, Gao Ming sighed again.

"Okay, I'll try my best!"

After finishing speaking, Gao Ming turned around and walked outside. Before he could walk out of the courtyard, he heard Concubine Yin crying loudly behind him.

She cried very sadly, she was born in a family of officials, she knew better than anyone else what a crime it was to rebel, so although she came here to seek wisdom, deep down in her heart she had given up, that's why she cried so much sad.

Hearing Concubine Yin's heart-piercing cry behind him, Gao Ming suddenly let out a long sigh.

"Oh, Li You, Li You, you have really committed a great crime. I am not doing it for you this time, but for a poor mother..."

While talking to himself, Gao Ming quickened his pace and walked towards the Forbidden Garden.

When Gao Ming came to the Forbidden Garden, he immediately saw the eunuchs and maids kneeling together outside the Imperial Study Room, and even Li Zhi and Li Mingda were standing outside the door, and Li Mingda's eyes were red, as if he was crying pass.

Seeing Gao Ming approaching at this time, she immediately burst into tears with a "wow", and she threw herself into Gao Ming's arms like a suckling swallow throwing herself into the forest.

"Big Brother, Father is going to kill Fifth Brother, woo woo woo..."

Seeing Li Mingda who was already crying into tears, Gao Ming smiled and patted her little head.

"Sir, don't worry, you guys wait outside first, brother go in and have a look."

"Ok!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Mingda obediently agreed immediately, and then let go of his little hand, while Gao Ming touched her little head again, and then came to the door of the imperial study room, and then shouted inside .

"Father, please see me wisely!"

As soon as his words fell, Li Shimin's roar came from inside.

"I don't see anyone! Get out of here!"

"..."

After hearing Li Shimin's roar, Gao Ming touched his nose with a wry smile. Although he had already thought of this before coming, he never expected that Lao Li would be so angry.

But he wouldn't be smart if he backed away, so he only thought about it for a few seconds before screaming.

"Oh, who is not good at pushing me?"

While roaring, he "stumbled" into the imperial study.

Seeing this scene, the eyes of everyone standing outside the imperial study room widened.

"Is that okay?"

No matter what others think, Gao Ming went in anyway, but it was not without risk, because the moment he entered, he immediately saw Li You who was trembling all over, and Li Shimin with a fierce face.

Seeing Gao Ming barging in, Li Shimin immediately turned his head and stared at him viciously with a pair of red eyes, as if planning to swallow him alive. Seeing this scene, before Li Shimin could open his mouth, Gao Ming laughed dryly.

"Hey... I didn't want to come in by myself. Just now, someone with no eyes pushed me... Uh... You are busy with your work, so ignore me. I will stand by and watch, hehehehe..."

After finishing speaking, Gao Ming closed the door of the imperial study, and stepped aside under Li Shimin's fierce eyes.

Seeing Gao Ming's actions, after Li Shimin glared at him again, he stopped paying attention to him, but turned his fierce gaze back to Li You, who was shaking like a sieve.

"I know that you have a surly temper and lack of virtue, and are easily bewitched by flattering remarks. Now you have finally brought about your own destruction. Your stupidity makes me very sad. You have forgotten your loyalty and filial piety, and disturbed Qizhou. This is an unforgivable capital crime... "

While Li Shimin was talking, tears flowed down his eyes. Gao Ming could see that Li You had really hurt his heart this time, and from his sad tone, Gao Ming heard his killing intent.

In history, after Li You's rebellion failed, Li Shimin did put him to death, but Gao Ming didn't want such a thing to happen under his nose. It wasn't all for Concubine Yin, but also for Li Shimin.

"Old Li, killing his brothers and brothers for the sake of the throne is already miserable enough. If he kills his son again, his life will be too bleak. I'd better help him. I should do my filial piety for Li Chengqian."

Thinking of this, Gao Ming immediately stood up.

"Old man, the fifth child should know that he was wrong, so let him go!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Li You, who was kneeling on the ground shaking like a sieve, suddenly trembled, like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw, and kowtowed vigorously towards Li Shimin.

"Father, I know I was wrong, Father, please don't kill me, please give me another chance, Father..."

"shut up!"

Before Li You finished speaking, he was kicked to the ground by the furious Li Shimin.

"I don't have a son like you! You used to be my son, but now you are the enemy of Tang Dynasty, how can I spare you?"

After Li You was kicked down by Li Shimin, he quickly knelt down again, continued to kowtow on the ground, and kept begging for mercy, but Li Shimin turned his head away.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming couldn't help sighing immediately, then shook his head.

"Hey, if I had known that something like today would happen, then I would definitely have someone kill him halfway, which would have saved me a lot of trouble!"

Having said that, Gao Ming looked up at Li Shimin again.

"Is there really no room for negotiation?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, a trace of desolation flashed across Li Shimin's face. He didn't seem to want Gao Ming to see his expression, so he immediately turned his back to Gao Ming.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, I will get rid of them!"

When Li Shimin's resolute words sounded in the imperial study room, Li You, who was still kowtowing, suddenly became ashamed and collapsed on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming once again let out a long sigh.

"Ugh……"

After sighing, Gao Ming didn't speak anymore, he walked directly to the back of the imperial study room, pulled out the barrier knife that Li Shimin hung on the wall, and then walked in front of Li You with strides, and rushed towards the paralyzed ground. Li You smacked his lips.

"Tsk tsk... Lao Wu, you are really wrong this time, since father can't forgive you, then let big brother give you a ride!"

Looking at Gao Ming who was holding the barrier knife, Li You was completely stunned.

"Brother, you..."

He reacted quickly, and immediately retreated a few steps while rolling and crawling, then shook his head vigorously towards Gao Ming.

"Brother, I'm the fifth child, I'm your own younger brother, you can't kill me!"

Looking at the shocked Li You, Gao Ming sighed again.

"I know you are my younger brother, but Fifth, you can't let your father be charged with murdering a son, can you? You have already made a mistake once, and you can't do it again."

While talking, Gao Ming walked up to Li You's side, grabbed his hair before he could react, and dragged him to the door of the Imperial Study Room.

"Fifth, let's go, let's go outside, don't dirty father's study, big brother will give you a good time."
