The dragon throne represented the throne of the emperor.

After Li Shiming bowed, he looked at the officials and said,"Everyone, please rise. Father let bengong listen to the government for him, then bengong will definitely not tarnish Father's name.”

Li Shi Min sat on the dragon throne.

All the officials looked at Li Shiming. Only now did they see Li Shiming's youth, and not Li Yuan's unfathomable and terrifying aura!

Liu Wenjing stood below and was delighted.

If it was Li Yuan's decision, he wasn't sure if he would punish Pei Ji severely.

But now that Li Shi Min was here and he was young, he would definitely show off his abilities and would not be tolerated. Thus, Pei Ji's matter would be very feasible.

Li Shimin was also looking at Liu Wenjing.

He had been keeping the memorial from yesterday in his heart and had not rested well the entire night.

However, he had already made up his mind.

His father's orders could not be disobeyed. Since Li Yuan said that Pei Ji was innocent, then he would first obey Li Yuan's orders before removing Pei Ji's authority.

At the very least, he would not be able to cause trouble like before.

He had also thought of the consequences.

After the morning court session, he would kneel in front of Li Yuan's palace. Even if he lost the right to listen to the court, he would not allow the power of the Great Tang to be in the hands of Pei Ji.

Li Shi Min made up his mind and looked at Pei Ji.

Pei Ji stood there calmly, as if nothing had happened. With Li Yuan's protection, he could live a carefree life.

Seeing this, Li Shimin became even angrier and nodded at Liu Wenjing.

When Liu Wenjing saw this, her heart calmed down. Then, she stood in the middle of the hall with a jade board in her hand and said,"Reporting to Your Highness, this old minister has a report to make.”

Liu Wenjing stood up.

Everyone in Taiji Palace was shocked.

Fang Xuanling had wanted to return the favor of raising military funds.

He also stopped for the time being and did not step forward.

Zhangsun Wuji, Li Jiancheng, Xiao Yu, and the others all looked at Pei Ji.

Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji had a long-standing feud.

Today, he could not help but stab Pei Ji in the end.

However, when they looked at Pei Ji, it was as if he had a well-thought-out plan and did not have the slightest fear. This made them feel extremely strange.

Especially since Pei Ji also had a memorial?

Was he going to take Liu Wenjing's book as well?

Liu Wenjing didn't care about what others thought, but she faced Li Shimin with no distractions.

Li Shimin looked at Liu Wenjing and said,"Minister Liu, what are you reporting? Who are you referring to?"”

Liu Wenjing stood below and listened to Li Shiming. She looked at Pei Ji and said,"Reporting to Your Highness the Crown Prince, this old minister wishes to consult Prime Minister Pei Ji.”

"All the evidence is in this memorial.”

"Your Highness, please take a look!"

Li Shiming glanced at Eunuch Lin, who immediately walked down and took Liu Wenjing's memorial.

However, his heart did not waver at all.

Because he knew that no matter what kind of evidence it was, it would not harm Pei Ji in the slightest.

Eunuch Lin handed the memorial to Li Shimin.

Li Shiming flipped open the memorial and looked at it casually. Then, he looked at Liu Wenjing and said,"Minister Liu, regarding the matter of Minister Pei, Imperial Father gave instructions yesterday.”

Liu Wenjing listened to Li Shimin.

He could not help but swallow his saliva.

The entire Taiji Palace fell silent. Pei Ji raised his head and looked at Li Shi Min.

"Your Highness, please tell me what His Majesty's instructions are!" Liu Wenjing said.”

Li Shi Min's expression remained unchanged as he said,"Imperial Father told me that Pei Ji is innocent!”

Pei Ji was innocent!

The moment these four words came out.

Liu Wenjing felt her legs go weak, and all the strength in her body seemed to have been sucked out.

Pei Ji laughed.

He also walked out of the official ranks and bowed to Li Shiming,"This commoner, thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.”

"If there's a next life, I'm willing to tie the grass and tie the hoop, hold the whip and jump into the hoop to assist Your Majesty to repay your kindness!”

Pei Ji's voice rang out in the hall.

In front of all the officials, he took off his official robe and folded it neatly in front of him. He placed the jade board on it and walked out of the hall step by step, leaving only his back view for everyone.

Li Shi Min sat there feeling like he had been struck by lightning.

Liu Wenjing looked at the official uniform and jade board in front of her and swallowed her saliva. She did not know what to say.

He had even thought of abandoning his position.

She had never thought that Pei Ji would leave the officialdom.

Li Shi Min was the same. He had already thought about going against Li Yuan's will and kneeling in front of him, but now Pei Ji had resigned?

Pei Ji was still like a piece of meat with a knife, slandering Li Yuan and clinging to Li Yuan's thigh.

He had been a parasite of the Great Tang, and now he had retreated?

Zhangsun Wuji was stunned.

Xiao Yu was dumbfounded.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui didn't know why!

But now, what's done is done. Pei Ji's resignation caught everyone off guard. Even if they retreated to advance, they did not retreat into a bottomless abyss, right?

Li Shimin swallowed his saliva. He still remembered that he was now in charge of Li Yuan's affairs. He said,"Put away Minister Pei's court clothes and jade scepter.”

"Minister Liu, is there anything else you want to report?”

Eunuch Lin went down to help settle everything.

Liu Wenjing also slowly shook her head and said,"Your Highness, I have nothing else to report.”

Liu Wenjing stood in the queue and looked at the empty seat beside her. Her heart was filled with mixed feelings.

He thought that Li Yuan had been deceived by Pei Ji.

However, he did not expect that Li Yuan had already taken care of everything and made Pei Ji resign. The biggest tumor in the Tang officialdom had been removed so easily.

Xiao Yu also said in a low voice,"Wenjing, Your Majesty is really far-sighted and insightful.”

Liu Wenjing nodded slightly and did not say anything.

Fang Xuanling walked out and said,""Your Highness, regarding the Ministry of Revenue's military expenditure, this lowly subject has something to report!”
