Chapter 167
Official Wen Yanbo pays homage to the imperial censor and is in charge of the censor platform. He has dozens of wolf-like censor officials under his command, who can be described as a giant in the court.

It is the responsibility of the supervisory censor to listen to the wind and play things. Therefore, although the supervisory censor is only an official of the eighth rank, he is very noble and has no taboos in doing things. High or low, they can all be included, even the prince is no exception.

For Wen Yanbo, arranging a confidant to participate in Li Ke's book is nothing but a matter of hand.

The princess left the palace without authorization, this matter can be small or big, if it is small, it is just that the princess was too young to have fun and went out of the palace. , this matter may hinder the princess's reputation, and it is not conducive to the government and the public.

Less than half an hour after Li Ke left the Duke of Yu's mansion, Yushitai impeached Li Ke for secretly taking the princess out of the palace. Just after returning to the mansion to change clothes, Li Shimin heard that Li Ke's oral order had been sent to the Chu Palace.

When Li Ke prepared his horse to enter the palace and arrived at the Ganlu Hall summoned by Li Shimin, Li Shimin was sitting in the study.

"My son, Li Ke, pays homage to my father." Li Ke stepped forward to pay homage.

Seeing Li Ke coming, Li Shimin put down the memorial in his hand, and asked Li Ke: "The tiger head is here, do you know what I said to you?"

The matter of impeachment was originally planned by Li Ke himself. He naturally knew the purpose of Li Shimin's passing him into the palace, but Li Ke still pretended to be completely ignorant in order to prevent Li Shimin from becoming suspicious.

Li Ke said: "I forgive Ke'er for being stupid, but Ke'er doesn't know."

Li Shimin glanced at Li Ke, clapped the memorial in his hand, and asked, "Last night, the Lantern Festival was still lively."

Li Ke knew what Li Shimin meant, but he still replied: "Nowadays the world is at peace and the people live in peace, so the Lantern Festival during the Lantern Festival is very lively."

Li Shimin asked, "You went too?"

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Ke seemed to have a trace of apprehension on his face, and replied, "Ke'er has gone."

Li Shimin looked at Li Ke's appearance, and then asked: "Is there anyone else going with you?"

Li Ke seemed to be thinking about something, paused for a moment, and then said: "Only Ke'er, and the servants in the mansion with him."

Li Shimin glanced at Li Ke again, and asked, "Is it true that there are only servants in the palace?"

Li Ke's reaction was a little panicked, but then he insisted: "Only the servants and servants in the mansion."

After listening to Li Ke's answer, Li Shimin's expression changed suddenly, and he pointed at Li Ke and said, "How long will you protect them?"

Li Ke's body trembled slightly, with a look of panic in his eyes, he said bravely: "Daddy asked suddenly, Ke'er doesn't know what Daddy means."

Li Ke threw the memorial in Li Ke's hands, and said to Li Ke: "You took Chang Le and Gao Yang out of the palace privately, and I really don't know anything about it, so let you deceive me?"

Li Ke took the memorial thrown by Li Shimin, and slowly opened it uncomfortably. With just one glance, his face turned pale, and suddenly he knelt down and pleaded guilty: "I am guilty, I should not lie to my father, but this is all because of my son." It has nothing to do with the two sisters, and I hope that the emperor will only punish the son and minister, and don't be angry with Chang Le and Gao Yang."

Li Ke seemed to be very panicked, and even changed the name of Li Shimin in his mouth.

Li Shimin heard all the crimes that Li Ke had taken on himself, and he didn't want Li Shimin to offend his younger sister, so Li Shimin's original anger disappeared a lot.

"Humph!"

Li Shimin snorted softly, and said to Li Ke: "You are so courageous. The princess went out of the palace against the palace rules. If you take them out of the palace and let others know, how will others treat them? It's okay that Gao Yang is younger, Changle is already It's almost time to get married, so how can you play tricks."

Li Ke said: "Father calm down, my son has no other intentions, just seeing Chang Le suffering in the palace every day, so I took her out of the palace to relax."

There is no doubt about Li Shimin's preference for Changle, and it can be seen from her title alone.

But as Changle grew up, Li Shimin didn't want to see Changle unhappy, and Li Ke's intention was to love brothers and sisters. .

After listening to Li Ke's words, Li Shimin's anger subsided a lot.

At this moment, Princess Changle also entered the study with Empress Changsun who had a big belly.

Seeing Empress Changsun entering the study, Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Guanyin maidservant, you are pregnant and not raising your baby in the inner palace, why did you come to the study?"

Empress Changsun glanced at Li Ke who was kneeling on the ground, and asked Li Shimin, "The concubine was brought here by Chang Le. Is Your Majesty scolding the King of Chu?"

Li Shimin replied: "Hutou took Chang Le and Gao Yang out of the palace without authorization, and now he is being impeached by the imperial censor, and I am reprimanding him."

This time, before Empress Changsun could open her mouth, Princess Changle hurriedly said: "It's Lizhi who is playful and begged Brother Sanhuang to take Lizhi out of the palace to watch the lanterns. Daddy, don't punish the third brother."

After hearing what Princess Changle said, Li Shimin's face, which was still somewhat angry, turned warm.

In fact, Li Ke is not someone else, but the elder brother of Changle. If Changle is out of the palace by others, or if he goes out of the palace privately, it will be considered a crime and damage his reputation, but Li Ke is his elder brother, and the elder brother takes his sister out. Letting go, how big a deal can it be?
And what really called Li Shimin's appearance was the brother-sister relationship between Li Ke and Changle. Although Li Ke and Changle were not direct siblings, they were willing to take the blame for each other.

Brotherly love, this is what Li Shimin wants to see most.

Just when Li Shimin's face softened a little, Empress Changsun also took advantage of the situation and said: "It's not a big deal for the king of Chu to take Changle out of the palace to relax. His Majesty just said a few words, and I hope that His Majesty will not go into details, so as not to spoil their brothers and sisters." Feelings."

Empress Changsun and Li Shimin knew each other very well, and she spoke to Li Shimin's heart in just one sentence.

Li Shimin's brothers killed each other and ascended to the throne. He never wanted the tragedy of their brothers to repeat itself on Li Ke and the others. As long as the brothers and sisters of the royal family live in harmony, these trivial matters are nothing.

Li Shimin said to Li Ke: "I want to ask the queen to intercede. Your brother and sister have a deep brotherhood. I won't punish you this time."

But after all, there is a royal history book, so it is inconvenient for Li Shimin to ignore it completely, so he paused, and then added: "This time you take Chang Le and Gao Yang out of the palace, I will make up another oral order, and say you It's my intention to bring Changle out of the palace, so don't get me wrong."

"Thank you, father." Li Ke and Chang Le both smiled and bowed down.

Seeing this, Empress Changsun personally stepped forward to lift Li Ke up, patted Li Ke on the shoulder lightly, and said with a smile to Li Ke: "You guys care about each other, brothers and sisters are friendly, I am very pleased, I hope that you will treat me well." The baby born in the womb, you have to treat her equally and take good care of her."
