"Your Majesty, it's just a coincidence that I and the King of Shu are like this today. If you want to say that I have any collusion with the King of Shu, do you believe me?" Jing Wen asked back.

Jing Wen said directly that he could not collude with Li Ke. After all, Jing Wen and Li Ke also had conflicts, and Li Shimin was unlikely to believe that Jing Wen would collude with Li Ke. What Li Shimin was most worried about was that officials who held certain power in the court colluded with the prince, which was the most terrifying. There was no problem with those low-level officials colluding with the prince, but senior officials were not allowed. What Li Shimin needed most was balance, just maintaining the balance between the princes.

Li Shimin didn't really believe that Jing Wen would collude with Li Ke, and Li Shimin could certainly see that Li Ke deliberately played a double act with Jing Wen today, but in fact, he deliberately wanted everyone to mistakenly think that Jing Wen was his own person. However, Li Ke still underestimated Li Shimin's ability, and he could see Li Ke's idea at a glance. Li Ke wanted to use Li Shimin's knife to kill Jing Wen. But Li Shimin was me after all, and he knew much more than him. His ability was not enough, and he could see it at a glance.

But although it was obvious that it was the same, Li Shimin still had to warn Jing Wen. Because Jing Wen and Li Chengqian had a bad relationship, Li Shimin was also afraid that Jing Wen would be worried about Li Chengqian's revenge on him in the future after he inherited the throne. Li Shimin was also worried that Jing Wen was afraid of Li Chengqian's future revenge, so he deliberately supported another prince to ascend the throne, which involved the royal struggle. Now Li Shimin is like this, and he wanted to tell Jing Wen not to interfere in the struggle of their royal family, otherwise Jing Wen would definitely die.

"Very good. Since you have nothing to do with Ke, I can rest assured. However, I want to warn you that as long as I am still one day, I will always be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. And you can only have one monarch, do you understand?" Li Shimin said seriously.

"I understand that the emperor is always the emperor, including the ministers, and even the crown prince, are all the emperor's ministers." Jing Wen said.

"Just understand, go back!" Li Shimin said.

After leaving Tai Chi Palace, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor Li Shimin is really not easy to serve. After all, any wise monarch is suspicious. Today, Jing Wen just happened to have the same purpose as Li Ke, and then did the same thing tacitly, that is, to slap Li Chengqian in the face. But Li Shimin immediately called Jing Wen to warn him, which shows that Li Shimin still cared about Jing Wen's attitude very much. Li Shimin was also afraid that Jing Wen would support Li Ke, which would be bad for Li Shimin's status.

Because Jing Wen is not alone now, there are many military officers behind Jing Wen, especially those old subordinates who avenged the army and those officials from military academy. Although Li Shimin is also the principal of the military academy, his direct influence on the military academy is not as good as Jing Wen. Li Shimin is more of a nominal person, nominally the emperor's teacher. Some military academy students still belong to Jing Wen's sphere of influence, so Li Shimin was also worried that Jing Wen would support a certain prince, so he brought him to warn him.

Jing Wen controlled the military power behind him. In the royal battle, the military power struggle is always the core thing. If there is no military power, then no matter how powerful it is, it is very illusory when you are favored. But once you have military power, you can have a mutiny at any time. And Li Shimin can now say that he has made a very bad example for the princes, that is, Li Shimin took the initiative to carry out a mutiny, which allowed all the princes to see a very bad example. Li Shimin never allowed the prince to control military power. In fact, Li Shimin's guard against his son was actually better than that of foreign ministers.

Li Shimin is also very sensitive to the hookup between the prince and the foreign minister. Once these two hookups are connected, Li Shimin is very nervous when they take their needs. So Jing Wen is a little suspicious and will be immediately beaten by Li Shimin. If it is those low-level officials, there is no problem, but Jing Wen is no longer a low-level official, so what Li Shimin is most worried about is Jing Wen. If Jing Wen hooks up with a certain prince, it will be very uneasy for Li Shimin.

"Fortunately, I'm smart and didn't hook up with those guys. These guys can't inherit the throne at all. Now their level is much worse than their father. If you defect to them, you'll be looking for death. Instead of doing this, it's better to lay a solid foundation for yourself. In this way, no matter who becomes the emperor, it depends on my face. This is the fundamental!" Jing Wen thought.

Those princes are unreliable. Anyone who participated in the battle for the throne would probably have been on Li Shimin's blacklist long ago and would not be qualified to inherit the throne. The fighting art of these guys is far worse than their father, so it is impossible to come to mutiny and seize power. Li Shimin was strictly guarding his son and would never let them get involved in military power. So fools know Li Shimin's intentions. After all, who made Li Shimin guilty, so he was afraid that his son would repeat his own path!

In this case, it is unreliable to follow any prince. After all, who knows what Li Shimin would think. Anyway, don’t look at the prince’s joy now, but sooner or later, when the list is about to be drawn, who made them have such a suspicious father? This is their misfortune. Haven’t you seen that none of the senior officials really surrender to those princes, they are middle and low-level officials. In history, those who were able to surrender to the crown prince Li Chengqian were just Hou Junji. Hou Junji actually wanted to be the prime minister and thought about it crazy, so he was so profitable

Ling Zhihun. A truly smart person has long seen that these princes will be dealt with by Li Shimin one by one. So as long as they do their own things well and then make their foundation firmer, this is the best way to protect themselves. The current situation is too strange. After all, the prince who is already out of the open is already out. Crown Prince Li Chengqian, Shu King Li Ke, and Li Tai are not those who can inherit the throne. Many people have been viewed by the bystanders, but those guys are all confused by the authorities.
