The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 898

After learning the truth of the matter, Li Er left.

Song Ren walked in from outside.

"Your Highness, I went to see the Grand Tutor, but..."

Xu Tian believes that the only person who won't kill him right now is the Grand Tutor.

"What did the Grand Tutor say?"

Xu Tian looked at Song Ren.

Song Ren seemed to have a hard time continuing.

"Say it!"

Xu Tian believed that things couldn't get any worse than they were now.

Although Li Er still believes in him, his reputation will be completely ruined if those people spread this matter.

Song Ren stated frankly, "The Grand Tutor has already entered the palace and gone there once. However, the Emperor dismissed him directly, citing the reason that this matter should be temporarily suppressed."

Inside the palace.

Li Er summoned Li Shen's wife for questioning.

Li Shen's wife had barely entered the imperial study when she appeared tearful and full of grievance.

When he saw Li Shen kneeling in the center of the imperial study, he cried even harder.

"Father, you must stand up for your daughter-in-law!"

She had barely reached the center when she knelt down on one knee and prostrated herself on the ground.

A hint of helplessness flickered in Li Er's eyes.

"Father, if this matter gets out, how will I face anyone in the future? I beg Your Majesty to punish Xu Tian and give me an explanation."

Li Er felt that this woman was becoming more and more of an actress.

It's true, once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea.

These women are all incredibly good actresses.

She was the one who framed others, but it turned out that others were the ones who were harassing her.

Moreover, he even put on a dramatic act, demanding that Xu Tian be punished.

Li Er then said, "You accuse Xu Tian of indecent assault, then I ask you, why was Xu Tian in the tavern at that time?"

Li Shen's wife said, "Of course, Xu Tian knew we were in the restaurant, that's why he went there."

"Oh! Then let me ask you, how did Xu Tian know which room you were in?"

Li Shen's wife had already cried so much that her face was completely covered with tears.

"Xu Tian is a prince personally appointed by you, Father Emperor. How could you not know that he is so cunning, treacherous, and treacherous?"

"Now the court officials all say that Xu Tian wants to seize power and usurp the throne. He has become the target of everyone's criticism. He even wants my daughter-in-law to conspire with him, but she refused, so he holds a grudge."

Li Er looked at the woman in front of him who could lie without batting an eye.

That statement is probably reversed.

He felt that Li Shen's attempt to win over Xu Tian failed, which was why he harbored murderous intent.

Looking at his good-for-nothing son, Li Er was filled with mixed feelings.

Looking at that woman again, he felt utterly helpless.

If it weren't for this woman's father saving her back then, she really would think she could be so arrogant and domineering now.

"Since you know so much, why doesn't Xu Tian just kill you to silence you?"

Li Shen's wife was shocked. "Your Majesty, I am the Tenth Prince's Consort. I believe Xu Tian only did this because he dared not kill me..."

She had barely finished speaking when she burst into tears again.

Li Shen also pretended to stop his wife from standing by.

"Alright, alright, now that this matter is over, and thankfully the maid went in early and nothing happened, you shouldn't be sad anymore."

Li Shen turned to Li Er and said, "Father, Xu Tian has no respect for the empire and no regard for the law. He simply doesn't put the people of our royal family in any way. I beg you, Father, to punish him severely."

Li Er watched the couple singing in unison.

He only sighed softly to himself.

He then said to the couple, "I have already understood this matter. Do you think you can fool me with your little tricks?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shen realized that his father's words had a hidden meaning!

But he just couldn't figure out what his father meant. Did he really already understand?
