"King Zhao, I will leave this matter to you. You must thoroughly investigate, find out who is responsible, handle it impartially, and give Shizi Xinhai an explanation."

Li You leaned over: "Minister, take the order."

Prince Xinhai also kowtowed and knelt down in thanks.

The two walked out of Feishuang Hall together, stood at the bottom of the steps, looking at the snow scene in the hall.

Li You's voice was as gentle as ever: "It's really regrettable that Prince Xinhai suffered so many crimes within a few days after he came to Chang'an."

"snort."

Prince Xinhai changed his obedience in front of the emperor, and snorted coldly, "That's not as good as what you suffered in Silla, King Zhao. I wonder if the scars on the prince's back that were eaten by ants are better?"

Li You was not angered by his words.

He maintained a calm and serene expression, as in the past many years.

"My lord, the damaged skin may not be healed, but to this king, it has no real impact. Instead, it is my medal of merit. Your Highness's lost fingers and dignity, but no matter what, I can't get them back."

Shizi Xinhai's fingers hurt.

Although he had already lost his left little finger, he could already feel the sharp pain in his little finger.

He looked at Li You with cold eyes like a poisonous snake, and suddenly smiled after thinking of something.

"Prince Zhao probably lost as much as me, right?"

"Any injury doesn't matter to this king." Li You said quietly, "This king just thinks that it seems unreasonable for the son to try to provoke this king at this time."

"So what? No matter how much enmity there is between you and me, is it as important as your fight for the throne?" Prince Xinhai showed a poisonous smile on his immature face, "Now is a good time for you to attack the Eastern Palace. If you replace him, Or if you ascend the throne in the future, are you afraid that you will not be able to take revenge?"

Li You thought about it seriously for a while, then nodded: "What the prince said makes sense."

Without waiting for Prince Xinhai to show a smug smile, he continued: "But, what if I don't want to be a prince at all, and I'm not interested in that position? As Prince Zhao, as long as I have a good relationship with my good brother, what do you think? Will I not have a chance to deal with Silla in the future?"

Shizi Xinhai's smile slowly froze on his face.

Li You showed a kind smile: "Not everyone is so ambitious. However, I can be sure that Shizi's younger brother must be more interested in the position of King of Silla. If Shizi falls here, what should I do?" ?”

"I am a descendant of my father's king and my mother's queen. How can those lowly animals born of concubines be able to replace me?"

"Yes, in Silla, concubines are indeed humble. But even a humble concubine is more useful than a dead son-in-law, right?"

Shizi Xinhai's face changed slightly.

He was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't believe you are not interested in the throne."

"If Your Highness thinks that I will fight against my prince brother for you, then you are completely wrong."

"Don't you dare to lie to the emperor?"

"Of course I dare not. I will report back truthfully."

"Hmph, I'm sorry you don't dare not say it."

"As for when I say it, it can only be decided by myself."

"you--"

"Your Highness, I still have something to do, so I will take my leave."

Li You adjusted the python robe, lifted his feet and left.

Shizi Xinhai looked at his back with hatred.

Although annoyed, he didn't have other options.

If Li You doesn't cooperate, he also has other helpers in court.
