Therefore, Li Shiming did not regret it!
All of this was because his eldest brother and third brother had forced him time and time again!
After the time for an incense stick to burn, perhaps because Li Yuan was tired, he finally sat back down on the dragon throne.
His face was old and his hair was messy. At this moment, Li Yuan looked as lonely as the last emperor.
"In the future, I will definitely teach my children well. I will never let my brothers kill each other.”
Looking at Li Yuan, Li Shimin thought of his favorite child, Li Tai, the steady Li Gaoming, and Li Ke, who had given him a big surprise today. He secretly swore that he would never repeat the same mistake and let this happen to him.
"What are you still standing here for? Do you really want my old life?”
Li Yuan's voice was hollow. He didn't want to see Li Shiming anymore.
However, Li Shi Min couldn't leave before he achieved his goal.
"Imperial Father, please summon your son to be the Crown Prince and hand over the families of the Eastern Palace, King Qi's estate, and the other traitors, as well as the Crown Prince and King Qi, to your son.”
Li Yuan raised his hand and pointed at Li Shiming,"Don't tell me you want to kill them all?”
Li Shimin looked straight at Li Yuan without flinching.
"Imperial Father, the world has just settled down. If we aren't careful, there will be chaos. At that time, the Great Tang may be destroyed.”
The father and son looked at each other for a long time. Seeing Li Shiming's determined face, Li Yuan had no choice but to put down his trembling arm.
Now that Daxing Palace was under Li Shi Min's control, with his prestige in the army…He was afraid that he had no choice.
Li Yuan laughed at himself and said,"Alright, I'll give it to you. I hope you'll take care of yourself."”
After Li Yuan said that, he ordered the servant who had no sense of existence to find an imperial edict and personally wrote it for Li Shimin.
He stopped writing and looked at Li Shimin with his hands that were holding the jade seal.
"Take it. You are already the Crown Prince now. I will give you a gift on another day.”
Li Yuan leaned back on the dragon throne and waved his hand at the chamberlain, indicating for him to pass the imperial edict to Li Shimin.
The chamberlain did not dare to be negligent.
Li Shiming received the imperial edict and looked through it from beginning to end. He heaved a sigh of relief and respectfully said to Li Yuan,"Imperial Father, these few days the rebels have not been cleared, it is not safe, let Jing De protect you.”
Then, without waiting for Li Yuan's reply, he said to Yuchi Jingde,"Jing De, you are the person that I am most at ease with. You should work harder these few days. Imperial Father's safety will depend on you. If any of the villains approach His Majesty…Kill without mercy!"
Li Shi Min ordered with a solemn expression.
"Yes, don't worry, Your Majesty. For the safety of Your Majesty, I will kill any scoundrels!”
Yuchi Jingde wasn't stupid. On the contrary, he was smart! Otherwise, how could he be a minister?
Li Shiming's meaning was clear. He wanted him to keep an eye on Li Yuan and not make any small moves. If the Crown Prince or King Qi's remaining members came to seek Li Yuan's protection, they would be killed!
"Mm, in that case, I'm relieved. Father, I'll take my leave!”
Li Yuan watched from the side as the two of them acted arrogantly, but there was nothing he could do.
Since Li Shi Min could kill his brother, he could also be his father!
At this time, Li Shiming was still concerned about his reputation and didn't want to be too ruthless.
Killing his brothers was enough to make him suffer. He didn't want to carry the infamy of killing his father, but Li Yuan didn't want to challenge Li Shiming's bottom line!
Li Yuan was afraid of death. He knew that Li Shiming still needed him, so he wouldn't kill him easily. On the contrary, he would provide for Li Shiming in order to save his reputation.
Moreover, if Li Shiming dared to kill him at this time, the aristocratic families that supported him would be enough to make him suffer. In addition, no one would obey him if he killed his brother and father. If he wanted to sit on the throne, there would be no change.
