Li Shimin let out a faint, inscrutable chuckle, "Let's discuss this matter another time."
Changsun Wuji felt a chill in his heart; this issue was likely going to be thorny. In fact, he had become increasingly disappointed in the Crown Prince, but for the sake of the Changsun family, he had to ensure the Crown Prince's position was secure, no matter what.
The hall fell into silence, with no one else speaking out.
"The Crown Prince..." Li Shimin's voice resonated, and though everyone was poised calmly, eyes downcast and hands clasped, they all pricked up their ears in unison, only to hear Li Shimin mournfully say, "You have disappointed me greatly!"
The crowd remained composed on the surface, but inside they were reeling. Those words... unmistakably conveyed a sense of dispensability!
Changsun Wuji grew even more anxious, but he needed to remain composed and speak at just the right moment, without seeming too eager.
