I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 124 Li Yuanji Writes the Blood Sutra!Taking advantage of the emperor's weakness? (45)

Tai Chi Palace, the emperor's bedroom.

After the court meeting, Li Yuan took a full afternoon nap and woke up feeling refreshed.

"Without worries, I even slept more peacefully..."

He stretched and smiled.

Just as he was about to get up, he heard a report from the eunuch outside:

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince seeks an audience."

Li Yuan frowned.

"here we go again!"

He said impatiently,

"Go and tell him, if you are here for state affairs, stop talking. I will not accept his proposal to move the capital for the time being."

"Tell him to go back and do well what he should do as the prince."

These are all his sons, why are they so different in character?

One wanted to fight, the other wanted to run.

"Return to Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince said that he came here for family affairs." The eunuch replied.

"Family matter?" Li Yuan muttered.

"Then tell him to come in."

He put on his silk gown, and began to groom his hair and beard,

The beard will start to tangle if it is not taken care of for a day. If it is not done for a few days, it may be full of fleas!

As an emperor, Li Yuan needs to keep himself clean and decent at all times, so it is essential to take care of his appearance every time he wakes up.

"My son sees my father."

Li Jiancheng's voice came from behind.

"What housework?"

Li Yuan looked at himself in the bronze mirror, stroked his beard and said.

"My son is here for my fourth younger brother, King Qi."

Li Jiancheng took out a book from his arms, kneeled on the ground, and said respectfully.

"For Yuanji? Haven't I already reduced his guilt?"

The movements in Li Yuan's hands became stagnant, and he said displeasedly,
"Don't you still want me to reduce it for him? Impossible!"

"Erlang just made his achievements in battle, how could I do something that would chill his heart, Yuan Jizhen will let him go, but not now!"

"Go back!"

In Li Yuan's heart, he was naturally unwilling to imprison his son for ten years, but it was impossible to release him now!

At least wait until Erlang has forgotten about it, right?
Now that he has released King Qi without charge as soon as he returned in triumph, what will Erlang think?What will the people of the world think?
Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl? ?

"My son is not asking the father to commute the sentence of the fourth brother, but to give the father a scripture copied by the fourth brother in Zongzheng Temple."

Li Jiancheng put his hands up and said respectfully,
"This is the "Book of Filial Piety" written by the fourth brother with blood, please read it."

Li Yuan: "?!"

He turned his head abruptly and snatched the scriptures from Li Jiancheng's hand.

As soon as the hula was opened, Li Yuan's pupils shrank from the shocking red color on it.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

He flipped through it quickly, but saw that the entire "Book of Filial Piety" was written with blood, and there was no ink anywhere!
"It turned out to be a blood scripture... This silly boy, why would he do such a thing?"

Li Yuan's hands trembled slightly, imagining that Li Yuanji wrote this "Book of Filial Piety" word by word with his own blood, he couldn't help feeling distressed.

He doesn't allow his children to harm themselves like this!
"Going back to my father, my fourth brother confessed his past mistakes in Zongzheng Temple. Every time he thought about it, he would cry bitterly, and felt that he had failed his father's upbringing and teaching."

Li Jiancheng said sympathetically,

"He felt extremely guilty and couldn't find any other way to repent. He could only use his own blood to write this "Book of Filial Piety" to express his regret!"

"Father, have you seen it? The fourth brother really regretted it!"

Li Yuan's fingers trembled slightly.

He stared at the blood book, and there was already a huge wave in his heart!
"Come on, let's drive... drive Zongzheng Temple!"

Li Yuan gripped the blood book tightly and ordered,
"I want to see King Qi!"

……

Imperial City, Zongzheng Temple.

This is where clan affairs are handled.

The children of the royal clan are in a detached position. Although they have no power, they are often above all officials.

Even if they violated the law, they would not be dealt with by the Ministry of Punishment, but would be taught to Zong Zhengqing, and most of them would have to ask the emperor before they could issue a disposition opinion.

So it is too idealistic to say that "the prince breaks the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime", and it doesn't matter at all.

Even if a person commits a crime, it is not the same organization as your common people.

The environment of Zongzheng Temple is relatively quiet. Most of the time, it is a leisurely office with not many employees.

As for the "enclosed places", they are actually courtyards with at least hundreds of square meters of space for activities, which are much more comfortable than real prisoners.

"His Majesty is here!"

A thin voice pierced the silence here.

All the people in Zongzheng Temple woke up and gathered towards Li Yuan.

"See Your Majesty!"

"See Your Majesty..."

Li Yuan waved his hand, looked around and said:
"Where is King Qi Pass?"

"Return to Your Majesty." An official stood up and said, "His Royal Highness Qi Wang is confined in the east room, where the light is better."

"Take me there." Li Yuan flicked his sleeves.

Good lighting?
No matter how good the lighting in this broken place is, it feels cool!
Thinking of his son suffering so much and writing scriptures with blood, Li Yuan couldn't help speeding up his pace, wanting to see Li Yuanji as soon as possible.

In an instant.

Crash.

The lock of the courtyard was unlocked, and Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng stepped into the courtyard together.

Just as he was about to search for someone, he saw a "savage" with disheveled hair lying on the rockery, motionless.

In the next moment, he suddenly jumped up and rushed forward!
"I got it, I got it!"

"Hahaha, I caught it..."

The savage clenched his fists excitedly and danced happily!

"Fourth brother!"

Li Jiancheng's eyes were hot, and he stepped forward suddenly, and hugged the savage.

Li Yuan was shocked, and his eyes showed disbelief.

This person... Could it be his fourth son, Li Yuanji?
"Fourth brother, don't play around like this. Father is here to see you. Your blood scriptures have touched father. Father and his old man are here to see you..."

With tears in his eyes, Li Jiancheng threw the cricket out of Li Yuanji's hand, brushed away his messy and knotted long hair, and said sadly,

"Quick, pack up your appearance quickly, don't lose your manners."

Li Yuanji, who looked like a savage, froze, allowing Li Jian to take care of his hair and clothes.

And his gaze was motionless, staring blankly at the person in front of him.

For a moment, his breathing seemed to be stagnant.

"Yuanji..."

Li Yuan stepped forward and called softly,
"My child, you, why did you become like this..."

When Li Yuanji heard this cry, tears welled up in his eyes!

"Father!"

He stepped forward abruptly, knelt down in front of Li Yuan, and cried loudly,
"Father, father!"

"Woooooooo..."

"You finally came to see the baby, you finally came..."

"The child is in so much pain, so painful..."

"Woooooooo..."

In an instant, Li Yuanji burst into tears, soaking Li Yuan's robe!
