The seventh year of the Zhenguan era. With a thunderous bang, I transmigrated and became Wei Shuyu.
As the beloved son of Wei Zheng, shouldn't I be helping my father solve his problems?
Chapter 514 I've Wanted to Hit You for a Long Time (Final Episode 5)
Da'an Palace.
Two guards stood at the door, drowsy and clutching their spears.
In the ninth year of the Zhenguan era, Li Yuan passed away.
Da'an Palace was left unused from then on.
Li Shimin felt that Da'an Palace was dilapidated and useless, so he moved Wei Shuyu there.
At first, he even sent a team to keep watch day and night.
Two years have passed, but Wei Shuyu still shows no signs of waking up.
They then abandoned their guard duties.
Only two guards were left to watch over the place.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Upon seeing Li Shimin, the two bowed in fear.
Li Shimin naturally did not respond to the guards.
They stepped straight into the Da'an Palace!
However, when he saw the empty bed, his expression changed drastically.
Where are they?
Li Shimin was about to shout.
Wei Shuyu then emerged from behind the screen…
"Is Your Majesty looking for me?"
Wei Shuyu asked with a smile, still holding a rag in his hand.
"You're awake?"
Li Shimin's pupils suddenly contracted.
With Wei Shuyu dead, the country was at peace.
Wei Shuyu's life was like a ticking time bomb, constantly unsettling.
But... he couldn't bear to kill them!
Because he wanted to obtain Wei Shuyu's ability to be invulnerable to swords and spears and immune to all poisons!
"His Majesty seems quite surprised."
Wei Shuyu walked to the bookshelf and began wiping it himself.
Surprise is not necessarily true.
Regret is inevitable!
Li Shimin now regrets not killing Wei Shuyu while he was unconscious.
"Shuyu, it's good that you're awake."
Li Shimin put on a smile: "Do you know how much I've worried about you all these years?"
"Yeah?"
Wei Shuyu turned around and smiled.
When it comes to shamelessness, Li Er is truly unmatched!
However, Wei Shuyu didn't say much.
He gently ran his finger along the bookshelf...
"Your Majesty, look..."
"There's a thick layer of dust here."
Li Shimin frowned.
I don't know why Wei Shuyu said that.
"Your Majesty, do you know that the Emperor Emeritus was very fond of painting?"
"How angry would he be if he knew you didn't clean his bookshelf?"
Li Shimin remained silent.
Since imprisoning Wei Shuyu, he has sealed off this place and forbade anyone to set foot in, so naturally no one has come to clean it.
"What exactly are you trying to say..." Li Shimin's expression grew cold.
Xiao Wei spoke to him in this tone again and again.
This had already displeased him.
"nothing……"
Wei Shuyu walked to the table and opened the wooden box.
Inside, there was a golden vine.
Wei Shuyu took out a rattan cane and smiled at Li Shimin, saying, "Your Majesty knows what this is, right?"
Before Li Shimin could answer, Wei Shuyu continued on his own...
"Beat Wang Teng!"
"Strike down the tyrannical ruler above, and the treacherous minister below!"
However, regarding this...
Li Shimin scoffed.
"I don't know where you got the King-beating Vine from."
Li Shimin said confidently, "But there's something you might not know..."
"Your father has returned the King-Beating Vine to the imperial court, along with an imperial decree from the Emperor!"
Li Yuan had stipulated in his will that after his death, he would bestow upon the Wei family a golden rattan cane.
However, Wei Zheng wanted to protect Wei Shuyu.
He then returned the golden rattan cane to Li Shimin!
"So His Majesty has taken back the King-Beating Vine bestowed by the Emperor Emeritus?" Wei Shuyu's face darkened.
"Exactly."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "You are now holding the King-Beating Vine, which can be considered as falsely conveying the Emperor Emeritus's last edict."
Li Shimin laughed heartily.
Seeing Xiao Wei get his comeuppance, he felt completely refreshed.
"Ha ha……"
But at that moment, Wei Shuyu suddenly laughed.
And he laughed even louder than Li Shimin.
"why are you laughing?"
Li Shimin's expression immediately turned ugly.
"Does Your Majesty think that the Emperor Emeritus only bestowed upon you a single King-Beating Vine?"
Wei Shuyu picked up another imperial edict from the table...
It unfolded in a flash.
"The Emperor Emeritus's last edict specially granted Wei Shuyu the power to beat the King Vine."
"Strike down the tyrannical ruler above, and the treacherous minister below!"
"impossible!"
Li Shimin stepped forward and snatched the imperial edict: "When has Father ever given you permission to beat Wang Teng?"
Nothing is impossible...
Li Yuan wanted to buy golden rattan canes but didn't have the money.
I promised Wei Shuyu back then...
If Wei Shuyu forges a pure gold rattan, he will be granted a King-Slaying Rattan!
Wei Shuyu crafted it!
After he confronted Li Shimin, he created this one.
Then they found Li Yuan... and issued this edict!
"Does His Majesty perhaps think this edict is fake?" Wei Shuyu smiled.
Li Shimin read the imperial edict with a dark expression.
It is Li Yuan's handwriting, and it also has his seal.
Moreover, he knew Li Yuan's personality well and that it was indeed possible that Li Yuan had left such a plan.
"So what if it's true?"
Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and put them behind his back: "You don't actually want to hit me, do you?"
"That's right!"
Wei Shuyu hoisted the golden rattan cane onto his shoulder: "I'm not afraid to tell His Majesty..."
"I've wanted to beat you for a long time!"
Li Shimin was completely dumbfounded.
Since he ascended the throne, no one has dared to speak to him like that.
"You bastard!"
Li Shimin was furious: "This is treason!"
"No, no, no..."
Wei Shuyu smiled and said, "I am carrying out the late Emperor's edict."
Li Shimin's expression suddenly darkened.
escape?
That's not very realistic.
With Wei Shuyu's fighting prowess, he knew he had no chance of escaping.
If you need to call for help...
They might even get beaten up in public!
"OK……"
Li Shimin regained his composure: "So even if you want to fight, you have to give a reason, right?"
"If you dare to take action without authorization, don't blame me for wiping out your entire Wei family."
reason?
A slight smile curved Wei Shuyu's lips.
There are too many of these.
If we really get into a fight, I'm afraid I'll beat you to death!
However, since you asked so sincerely, I will reluctantly answer you.
"The retired emperor has passed away, but his former residence is left unattended."
Wei Shuyu stepped forward and rebuked, "Is this a valid reason?"
Li Shimin was about to shift the blame to the eunuchs.
Wei Shuyu, however, did not give him that opportunity.
"The Emperor Emeritus was imprisoned in Da'an Palace by you for seven years. Does that count as a reason?"
"You forced the retired emperor to abdicate; does that count as a reason?"
"You dare to take back the King-Beating Vine bestowed by the Emperor Emeritus? Does that count as a reason?"
Li Shimin was intimidated by Wei Shuyu's imposing presence.
Startled, he took a step back.
"I have already reconciled with my father," Li Shimin retorted loudly.
"fart!"
Wei Shuyu suddenly shouted: "You have stripped the Emperor Emeritus of everything!"
"We have been containing and guarding against him from beginning to end."
"Do you have the nerve to say you've forgiven me?"
"Do you know how the Emperor Emeritus has managed all these years?"
"On the surface, he seems indifferent to everything, but in reality, he spends every day in agony!"
"You said you'd let bygones be bygones..."
"Please get one thing straight..."
"The Emperor Emeritus... he has never forgiven you!"
Swish.
Li Shimin's expression changed drastically.
is that so?
Yes!
Li Yuan's attitude has always been the same; he has never forgiven him!
"Now……"
Do you think you should have hit him?
"Oh, right, it's not important..."
"The Emperor Emeritus is my friend."
"Now that I have the ability, I should certainly seek justice for him!"
Bang!
Bang bang bang...
Wei Shuyu showed absolutely no mercy.
He then proceeded to slap Li Shimin's hands and feet repeatedly.
A pure gold rattan cane, no soft one, hurts the most.
But it caused serious injury!
"Bastard, bastard, bastard..."
Li Shimin was in so much pain he jumped up and down: "Wei Shuyu, you're rebelling!"
"rebel?"
Wei Shuyu stopped whipping.
Li Shimin took a breath, rubbing his hands and feet as he gasped for air.
"As I just said, I am carrying out the will!"
