"Reporting to Your Majesty, it has been thoroughly investigated."

For some reason, Gao Lishi, who had lost the favor of the emperor, seemed determined this time.

In just two days, the whole story had been uncovered.

"Speak," said Li Shimin, showing no emotion on his face.

Gao Lishi, afraid of incurring the emperor's anger again, replied cautiously:

"According to my confidential investigation, Your Majesty and the concubine of Shou Wang conspired with Zhanqiu Jianqiong, the Sima of Yizhou, and the cousin of the concubine, Yang Guozhong. Upon learning that Your Majesty had favored the concubine previously, they speculated the intention and attempted to bring the concubine into the palace to serve Your Majesty."

Li Shimin couldn't help but burst into laughter.

What a good emperor Li Longji was! This unfilial descendant actually had someone trying to beautify the scandalous act of snatching a daughter-in-law.

"Order to revoke Zhanqiu Jianqiong and Yang Guozhong's official positions, exile them to Lingnan as a warning to others. Anyone who dares to discuss the issue of Shou Wang and me will be punished as accomplices with these two." If Li Shimin remembered correctly.

This Yang Guozhong was one of the "great contributors" who hastened the downfall of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was just wondering how to deal with him, and he came to offer a solution on his own initiative, providing him with a perfect opportunity.

As for the Shou Wang Mansion.

It can be said that throughout the incident of Li Longji snatching the daughter-in-law, who was the most aggrieved?

It must be Li Chan, the Shou Wang.

Truly, misfortune comes from the heavens when a person is sitting at home.

Li Shimin sighed with a furrowed brow. Since he chose to be a good father, he couldn't be stingy with his actions.

"Furthermore, confer upon Shou Wang the new title of 'Chun' and grant the provinces of Qing, Di, and Lai as a consolation," Li Shimin continued.

After finishing his orders, Li Shimin waved his hand and dismissed Gao Lishi.

After dealing with Yang Guozhong,

he needed to start selecting the next lucky person.

Li Shimin held the roster of ministers and began his selection process.

Finally, when he saw a certain name, his eyes brightened and he circled it with a red pen.

"Alright, it's you."
