My father, Li Shimin, requests Your Majesty to become the Retired Emperor.

Xu Hui smiled sweetly, her face as beautiful as a peach blossom: "Your Majesty, how about this, let Yin Hongzhi be the Chief of the Imperial Stables, under the Imperial Stables Bureau of the Palace Secretariat, in charge of the Imperial Horses."

This official was a low-ranking seventh-grade official, not a high-ranking position.

However, the imperial horses still need to be managed by someone; this would also demonstrate His Majesty's magnanimity and forgiveness.

What does Your Majesty think?

Li Shimin laughed heartily: "Some time ago, four monks sneaked into the Dali Temple prison."

They rescued Yin Hongzhi.

Therefore, I ordered Chang He to lead the Imperial Guards to arrest the monks of various temples.

Among them were the Great Ci'en Temple, and even Xuanzang was arrested.

I originally intended to order Chang He to imprison all those bald monks.

Xuanzang pleaded for them, saying that the monks had done nothing wrong.

Only then did I order the monks to be released.

"Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty's decision is correct. As for which four monks saved Yin Hongzhi, I am not quite sure."

However, I advise Your Majesty not to investigate this matter any further; it's pointless.

If His Majesty issues an edict pardoning Yin Hongzhi's death sentence and simultaneously bestows upon him an official title, Yin Hongzhi will naturally reappear.

However, Your Majesty must remember not to deceive others, lest you be like Shang Yang who deceived Prince Ang.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Alright, let's do it your way."

Actually, I am not a petty person, nor do I like killing.

Judging from Li Shimin's attitude, it is clear that his attitude towards Xu Hui and Empress Zhangsun were completely different.

Despite Empress Zhangsun's persuasion, Li Shimin remained unwilling to release Yin Hongzhi.

However, when it came to Xu Hui, she only said a few words...

Li Shimin happily pardoned Yin Hongzhi.

"Your Majesty, since you have promised to release Yin Hongzhi and promote him, you cannot go back on your word."

Furthermore, I believe there is another person who is feeling uneasy.

"Oh, who are you talking about?"

"That must be Consort Yin, after all, Consort Yin and Yin Hongzhi are siblings."

One can imagine that ever since Consort Yin heard that Yin Hongzhi had attempted to assassinate His Majesty, she probably couldn't sleep or eat properly day or night.

However, this matter cannot be blamed on Consort Yin; she may have been completely unaware of it beforehand.

Li Shimin leaned back in his chair: "My beloved consort, what you say makes some sense. Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. I will not kill someone indiscriminately."

"Actually, Consort Yin had a tough time too, she even gave birth to Prince Li You for you."

"Then let Yin Hongzhi teach Li You when he has time."

After hearing this, Xu Hui frowned and said, "Your Majesty, I do not agree with your arrangement regarding this matter."

Why?

"Since ancient times, selecting a tutor for a prince has always been a matter of paramount importance."

"Yin Hongzhi's abilities are limited. Can he educate the princes well?" Xu Hui asked with a worried expression.

Li Shimin, however, disagreed: "Although Yin Hongzhi is not a very good person, he is not as bad as Zhao Gao."

If it were Zhao Gao, he would never have attempted to assassinate me. Only someone without a brain would do something so foolish.

The fact that Yin Hongzhi actually did it fully demonstrates that he was not a cunning person.

"Then, even if someone like him wanted to be bad, he couldn't be really that bad. After all, he's Li You's maternal uncle. I feel very reassured having him assist Li You."
