Man Tanghong

Chapter 334 The clever tongue escaped danger, the ruthless Li Er

Li Ling, Li Xu, and Li Chengye were already sleepy. They had no interest in the Nuo Opera Festival or Li Shimin's forced entry into the Tai Chi Hall.

But seeing the enthusiasm of the little friends, wishing to rush over immediately, each of them stood up very loyally, staring at the eyelids that would droop at any time, leaned over to Li Yuanji, and accompanied the little friends to find The boy's father.

Li Yuanji stretched out four fingers, let the four little fellows hold one tightly, and forcibly recruited the Qianniu Beishen guarding both sides of the imperial road, surrounded him, and then slowly went to where Li Shimin was. location.

It's time for Li Shimin to come back.

When he forced his way to the high platform, he happened to see the scene where the son of God played by Li Jiancheng was taking over the divine seal symbolizing divine power from the god played by Li Yuan.

Li Shimin only felt that there was a rush of blood rushing to the top of his head.

His eyes instantly turned red.

The head of Yang Wenqian, who was in his hand, was slammed down on the high platform by him.

After a muffled bang, Yang Wenqian's head split open on the high platform, spattering half of Li Jiancheng's face with blood.

Li Yuan opened his mouth, feeling a little guilty, as if he had been caught cheating, not knowing how to face his furious son.

Li Jiancheng was shocked, his heartbeat seemed to stop suddenly, and his mind went blank for a moment.

Although he had been fighting openly and secretly with Li Shimin before, he even had the idea of ​​killing Li Shimin many times.

Li Shimin estimated the same.

But on the bright side, everyone has always been amiable, not only did not blush, nor did they quarrel.

Li Shimin suddenly tore his face, he didn't know how to face it.

"Li Shimin, you are presumptuous!"

Just when the people on the high platform were shocked by the furious Li Shimin, Li Gang suddenly took off the mask on his face and roared angrily at Li Shimin.

"Master Li..."

Li Shimin still had a little respect for Li Gang. Although he was in a rage, he did not lose his mind, nor did he vent his anger on Li Gang.

Li Gang didn't wait for Li Shimin to finish speaking, and angrily reprimanded, "Don't call me Master Li! I don't have students like you who don't care about etiquette, don't respect your father, and don't respect your elder brother!"

The veins on Li Shimin's forehead popped out, he tried his best to restrain his emotions, and said, "Master Li, this is our family's business."

Li Gang took a step forward, and angrily reprimanded again: "Family affairs should be discussed in private, not brought up at the Nuo Opera Festival!"

"Yes! The great affairs of the country are sacrificed to Rong. The grand sacrifice of Nuo opera is a great matter of the country. How can we do it arbitrarily because of our own selfishness."

An old man not far from Li Jiancheng took off his mask, stared at Li Shimin, and echoed Li Gang's words.

Wei Zheng, who was behind the old man, took off his mask after the old man finished speaking, walked up to Li Yuan, gave a solemn salute, and said angrily: "I impeach His Highness King Qin, destroy the grand ceremony of the Nuo opera, and disregard the rules of etiquette. , Look no further than your father, disrespect your elder brother, I implore the sage to take it seriously!"

Li Yuan finally came to his senses amid Wei Zheng's nearly roaring impeachment.

He took off the mask on his face, crushed a corner, stared at Li Shimin tremblingly and asked, "Shimin! Are you going to betray me?"

This is a heavy word.

It can almost be said that it was the most important thing Li Yuan said after Li Shimin grew up.

If it was in the past, Li Shimin would definitely jump off his horse immediately, bow down at Li Yuan's feet without hesitation, and bluntly said that he had no objection.

But today, Li Shimin did not back down, but faced Li Yuan's questioning directly.

"I will never turn against my father, I just feel that my father treats my son unfairly!"

Li Shimin said like a low growl.

Someone wanted to reprimand Li Shimin, but Li Yuan stepped forward and asked again: "When did I treat you unfairly?"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth, lowered his head slowly, and said nothing.

Some words can only be pointed out, but cannot be stated clearly.

In this era where ethics are respected, if you hold some words in your stomach, you are the one who is reasonable, and if you say it, you are unreasonable.

For example, Li Shimin really wanted to tell everyone that Li Yuan had promised him the crown prince many times, but he backtracked afterwards.

But he can only think, not speak.

Because if you say it, it's tantamount to accusing Li Yuan of not being trustworthy.

This dealt a great blow to Li Yuan's prestige, and Li Shimin himself would bear the reputation of being unfilial.

The reason is to trap the king's father in injustice.

"Tell me, tell me, when did I treat you unfairly?"

Li Yuan didn't know whether he was dazzled by Li Shimin's anger, or if he had decided that Li Shimin would not dare to say anything, so he continued to chase after Li Shimin and question him.

Li Shimin said with a difficult tone: "Father, do you really want my son to tell me?"

Li Yuan trembled more violently, staring straight at Li Shimin with his eyes, and growled: "Don't call yourself a minister, just be a minister.

I don't have an arrogant son like you. "

Li Shimin's face suddenly became very ugly.

Li Yuan said again: "You can speak freely now!"

Taking this opportunity, Li Jiancheng finally spoke, "Shimin, why don't you admit your mistake to your father?!"

Li Jiancheng grasped this opportunity very well, fully proving to other people around him what is called a good brother and what is called a good son.

"My son..."

"Your Highness, have you been fighting for many days without a break, and your mind is a little confused. The Nuo Opera Festival is an annual festival for worshiping gods.

How can you trespass? "

Li Shimin opened his mouth with difficulty to speak, but Fang Xuanling suddenly opened his mouth to ask him questions.

Li Shimin glanced at Fang Xuanling, and began to struggle in his heart.

He knew why Fang Xuanling said such things at this time.

He also knew that when he was furious, he would only do him harm if he did not care about it.

But he is not reconciled.

He was not reconciled to having paid so much and not being recognized by Li Yuan.

Not reconciled to the fact that he almost risked his life, Li Yuan still placed the crown prince firmly under Li Jiancheng's ass.

Unwilling to be played by Li Yuan again and again like a monkey.

Not to be reconciled to Li Yuan carrying him behind his back, secretly giving everything to Li Jiancheng.

"Your Highness, you're not drinking to keep out the cold, are you? If you're drinking, go down and sober up, and confess your mistake to the saint after you sober up."

Fang Xuanling saw that Li Shimin was struggling, and asked again.

In Fang Xuanling's view, it was just a sacrifice, and it was not worth Li Shimin's anger at all.

If Li Shimin confronts Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng because of this, Li Shimin will only be injured.

Maybe in the end, the good situation in his hands will be ruined completely.

What can the handover of the god seal on the sacrifice represent?
In the eyes of the prince, and in the eyes of the sage, it may represent a symbol of orderly inheritance.

But in his eyes, that's all.

As long as Li Yuan survived, Li Jiancheng would be the crown prince.

As long as Li Jiancheng is the crown prince, Li Shimin will have a chance to compete for that position.

Besides, even if Li Yuan died, even if Li Jiancheng ascended to the throne.

so what?

With the current strength of Qin Palace, even if Li Jiancheng goes up, Li Shimin can pull him down.

So there is no need to confront Li Yuan in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

"Hehehe, Your Highness must have drunk too much, otherwise it would be impossible to come here."

Cheng Yaojin, who was hiding in the crowd and wearing an extremely ugly mask, suddenly laughed and said.

It's just that among the crowd present, he was the only one smiling, which seemed very abrupt.

Some people who didn't like him even glared at him.

But he acted like he didn't see it.

"I'm not confused and I'm not drinking."

Amidst Cheng Yaojin's laughter, Li Shimin suddenly spoke.

Cheng Yaojin's laughter disappeared in an instant, and Fang Xuanling's eyes widened in horror.

Li Yuan's face changed completely, and his hands trembled.

Everyone present could see that Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin were singing together to find a way for Li Shimin to step down.

The reason why no one stopped it was because on this occasion, if the father and son got into a stalemate, there would be no way to end it.

In the end, he must punish Li Shimin severely.

Everyone present knew that he loved his son, so some people who wanted Li Shimin to die couldn't hold on to Li Shimin's tricks at this moment.

Otherwise, when he disposes of Li Shimin, he will definitely settle the score later.

All the people present, whether they were willing or not, were silently cooperating with Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin to find a way for Li Shimin.

He originally thought that with Li Shimin's intelligence, he would immediately go down the steps after he cleared his mind.

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin not only did not come down, but went a step further.

Is this going to make a fight with him?

Is it necessary to tear face off with him?

"Where is that bastard Sanhu?!"

This was the only sentence that came to Li Yuan's mind when facing this situation.

In this situation, the only one who can help him, Li Shimin, and everyone else is the unfilial son Sanhu.

As long as Sanhu makes a big fuss, making the water even more muddy, and suppressing Li Shimin, everything will be solved easily.

"Father treats his children unfairly!"

Li Shimin spoke again.

Li Yuan's face had turned iron blue.

The faces of the others also changed drastically.

However, Li Shimin didn't care about everyone's reaction, and continued to say: "Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, a total of five Nuo opera festivals have been prepared. In previous years, I was away on expeditions and had no chance to accompany the sacrifices.

This year, I hurried back to Chang'an City just to accompany the Nuo Opera Festival.

But my father only took my eldest brother with me, but not me.

Could it be that in father's heart, only eldest brother is your son, and I am not your son? "

Li Yuan felt his head was kicked by the donkey, and he froze in place with a buzzing sound.

Li Jiancheng, as well as other royal family members, civil and military officials, also stared at Li Shimin with wide eyes.

Li Shimin's turn was so fast that no one could accept it for a while.

"I also want to be by my father's side and sacrifice to the gods with my father. I also want to pray to the gods of all directions for my Great Tang and the people of my Great Tang.

Erchen wanted to do his part for his father and for the people of Tang Dynasty.

But why didn't the father bring his son with him? "

"..."

"It's my fault for trespassing on the Nuo opera festival this time. In order to make up for my fault, I offered Yang Wengan's head as a sacrifice. I don't think the gods from all directions will blame me."

"..."

"If the Bafang gods feel that Yang Wengan's head is not enough to appease their anger, I will sacrifice my flesh to serve the gods."

"..."

While speaking, Li Shimin pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist without blinking, and began to cut flesh on his arm.
