Chapter 363

The Minister of Rites was very satisfied with this explanation, like Xiao Xiazi cast admiring eyes, Xiao Xiazi received great encouragement, and said triumphantly: "Furthermore, the banquet at that time was not only for your Excellency, but also for the rest of the adults who praised His Highness the Crown Prince for his heroic spirit. He is a good descendant of Emperor Taizong, His Royal Highness still laughed loudly, "If you can really be Emperor Taizong once, it will be worth your life!" From this we can see——" Xiao Xiazi was still talking freely, but unexpectedly found that the original appreciation All his ministers looked at him in horror, like looking at a monster, while Li Linfu had a half-smile on his face, and Wu Zhong and Wu Xin were almost happy!

Little Xiazi didn't know what went wrong, and looked at his master at a loss. In Li Ying's emptiness, he could not see any emotions. This lowness made him even more frightened, and he couldn't help taking a few steps back, bang He slammed into the mahogany pillars in the temple.

The hall became quiet because of his words, Li Ying knelt on the ground covered in cold sweat, not daring to look at the gloomy emperor sitting on the throne, but said abruptly: "Father, forgive me, my minister's words are not true!"

Master Zhang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, also knelt down and said with trembling lips: "I can testify that the original words of His Royal Highness are not true! The meaning of the crown prince is to imitate the ancestors, to be a good emperor who is diligent in government and loves the people, and to continue... to continue the great Tang Dynasty of His Majesty , absolutely no other meaning!"

"What a joke! What do you mean by 'If you can really be Emperor Taizong once, you will truly live your life in vain!', this sentence is not a joke after drinking in private, but said in front of the courtiers at the banquet! To say that If there is no other meaning, ghosts will not believe it!" Wu Zhong said loudly.

Li Ying said solemnly: "Father, my son's original words are 'If you can be the King of Qin once and clear up the side troubles of the Great Tang, your life will really be worth it! It's not what the servant said at all!"

Li Longji looked at Li Ying suspiciously, his eyes darting up and down on him.

Chang Xi also said: "I'm afraid the prince made a slip of the tongue after drinking, but I think that's not what he meant!"

Li Ying thought in his heart: I have encountered serious dangers tonight, first with the Nine Heavens Ring, and then with the Minghuang costume. I think even this time the King of Qin Breaking the Battle was also a trap designed by them to make me fall into the urn!Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui!You really took great pains to design me, and I am sure that I can't play other roles, only the emperor.You actually changed the emperor's costume into a bright yellow color. If I don't see the flaws, I'll die if I wear it. Fortunately, my third brother helped me see through this trick. I didn't know that you have already thought about your back move!Since I can't wear a yellow dragon robe, I have to wear a black robe. Wearing a black robe can only act as a feast given by the Khan. You are using this to elicit my words after drinking that day!Such a meticulous mind, such an extraordinary resourcefulness, actually calculated his own thoughts so accurately, unexpectedly calculated each step so accurately - no!Concubine Hui doesn't have such a mind!It must be the people behind her who are planning for her!Yes, yes, it must be Li Linfu!
While thinking about it, he couldn't help but cast a glance at Li Linfu behind him, and saw him leisurely drinking the wine on the table.Damn it!Be careful or fall into his snare!Look at this posture, they are going to take him down at the wedding banquet today!Li Ying made up her mind that even if the fish die and the net breaks, she still can't satisfy Concubine Hui!Immediately, he said angrily: "What's the meaning of Concubine Hui's mother? The son-in-law didn't say these words, why did he slip up after drinking! The mother-in-law has been targeting the son-in-law all the time. Could it be that she wants to win the crown prince for the eighteenth younger brother? Empress Dowager!

Li Ying did not hesitate to expose Chang Xi's intentions on the spot, and was ready to die with him!

Chang Xi was startled for a moment, then furious, speechless.

Princess Xianyi pulled Li Longji's sleeve and cried: "Father, Concubine Huimu kindly speaks for Brother Prince, look at what attitude Brother Prince has! Concubine Hui's face is pale with anger!"

Wu Xin sneered and said: "I have heard that the prince is unparalleled in loyalty and filial piety. Could this be the so-called filial piety of the prince? He betrayed his majesty first and cursed his mother and concubine later. The prince is really an example for all princes!"

"Presumptuous! When did this crown prince betray his father!" Li Ying scolded.

Wu Zhong took a step forward and said loudly: "Isn't that a betrayal of His Majesty! Your Majesty trusts you, so he passed on the position of crown prince, but you are so impatient to seize power! Isn't it a betrayal of His Majesty's will! "

Seeing that Li Longji's expression became more and more gloomy, Li Ju was shrouded in a chilling atmosphere, and said anxiously: "Father, don't listen to these thieves sowing dissension! Second brother has never had any disagreements with you!"

The ministers in the hall and the other princes and princesses were all trembling, worried that the emperor Longyan on the throne would be furious!The ministers belonging to the prince's party have their own thoughts, some are planning how to get rid of the prince, and some are concerned about their own safety!If the crown prince was really convicted for his words, then the ministers he invited to the banquet that night may not have a good death, and Li Longji will attach the crime of following the party against the party, ranging from exile to death!
Li Heng stepped forward to intercede and said: "Father! The second brother has always been filial. I am afraid that what happened today will be taken advantage of by someone with a heart! You can't just listen to the little servant's one-sided words and convict the second brother! He has done for you all these years. I have done so many things, there is no credit but hard work, please see it for the sake of respect and rigor of the second brother, please think twice before acting!"

"Please think twice before acting!" Li Yao and Li Ju also said in unison.

Li Linfu sighed, "The prince has indeed done a lot of things for the Tang Dynasty over the years, such as eliminating dissidents, suppressing all officials, buying people's hearts, and——"

"Enough!" Li Longji was furious!
Everyone in the hall trembled in fright, even Li Linfu lowered his head and dared not speak anymore, the atmosphere in the whole hall was strange and suffocating.

Li Longji stared coldly at the prince kneeling on the ground, his most beloved son, the child he raised under his care, and said word by word: "Are you so impatient?"

"Father!" Li Ying roared, kneeling under the throne, looking at his father with tears in his eyes.

"Are you so impatient?" Li Longji closed his eyes slightly, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes!Chang Xi, Princess Xianyi, Gao Lishi and others who were sitting close were all stunned!For so many years, no matter how difficult things were faced, let alone shed tears, why did he ever shrink back in front of everyone?Today, he actually shed tears like this!

Li Ying walked over on his knees, holding Li Longji's green jade case with both hands, he knew that his old father was really heartbroken!But this matter itself is wronged!From the beginning to the end, he had no intention of grabbing the class and seizing power!All he was afraid of was that his father would abandon him!It's all, it's all that little sycophant who instigated Xiao Xiazi to wrong him, which made his old father so sad!For a moment, Prince Li Ying was filled with hatred, and he gouged out Concubine Wu Hui's eyes.

Chang Xi looked at Li Longji who was trembling slightly all over, and felt great pity in his heart, he had never been like this before!He is very uncomfortable today!

"I don't have it! I really don't!" Li Ying shed precious tears when she saw Li Longji like this, she just held on to the sapphire case and muttered to herself, not knowing what to do with this so-called father-son rivalry in the eyes of others end!
