'Your Majesty wants to leave the palace?'

Gao Lishi looked at Li Shimin, who was already dressed and ready to go, with eyes almost popping out.

Because of his past experiences, since he ascended the throne, His Majesty has never mentioned the matter of leaving the palace in disguise.

Li Shimin glanced at him sideways, 'What? Am I not allowed to go?'

Gao Lishi looked helpless.

He didn't dare to dissuade His Majesty back then.

But now, although there are ministers like Zhang Jiuling who are loyal and devoted, the court is still in turmoil.

If news of His Majesty leaving the palace were to be known, what if there were truly deranged individuals who wanted to take advantage of the situation? What should they do?

Not to mention, there are still many spies from the Zhang and An factions in the capital.

'I won't go to the marketplace,' seeing that Gao Lishi was about to cry in desperation, Li Shimin could only helplessly say, 'I want to go to the Daci'en Temple.'

Hearing this, Gao Lishi mustered up the courage and looked at Li Shimin in astonishment.

He couldn't quite understand.

He had thought that His Majesty was bored in the palace and wanted to have some fun outside.

He didn't expect that he actually wanted to go beyond the mortal realm.

With this statement, Gao Lishi's thoughts intensified. He first thought about His Majesty's recent change in behavior compared to before, and then thought about His Majesty's long absence from the harem.

A dreadful conjecture gradually emerged in Gao Lishi's mind.

But before he could start wailing and complaining, he watched Li Shimin, who had already predicted his various expressions:

'I'm not going to become a monk.'

Just a casual remark.

It completely silenced Gao Lishi.

Li Shimin continued, 'Arrange the Jinguo Wei to accompany me, just one thing, don't disturb the people.'

'Yes!'

Gao Lishi responded loudly and with determination.

In his heart, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Thankfully, His Majesty has not forsaken the mortal realm.

Watching Gao Lishi happily walk away.

Li Shimin, as if venting his frustration, rolled his eyes fiercely at the sky.

Upon learning that His Majesty was going to Daci'en Temple.

Inside the palace, everyone speculated about the meaning behind His Majesty's actions, and many concubines even fantasized about accompanying him and competing for favor.

However, without exception, they were all driven away by the Jinguo Wei who arrived later.

In a calm and composed manner, Li Shimin even looked at the pear blossoms in the rain being driven away with a hint of displeasure.

Li Shimin: I hate it!
