Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

"Sister, what is 'letter'?" Princess Sizi stopped crying when she heard this.

"The 'letter' is that my second brother wrote down his thoughts on our Sizi, and then while Sizi was sleeping, it traveled thousands of miles and quietly appeared in front of us." Princess Changle saw how adorable her sister was, so she took out a handkerchief to wipe her sister's tears, and couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch her pink and tender cheeks: "Sizi, be good, don't cry, or I will feel bad if you cry any more."

"Yes! Don't cry!" Princess Sizi nodded heavily upon hearing this.

"Sizi, do you want to read the letter first or open the presents first?" Princess Changle gently helped her sister put on the shoes and socks she brought with her: "Don't run around without shoes in the future, be careful not to catch a cold."

"Sister is the best!" In terms of sweetness, Princess Sizi has now far surpassed the little prince who still steals his sister's handkerchief to wipe his nose.

"You are the only one who is good at coaxing my sister." Princess Changle smiled when she heard it, then she bent down and carried her sister off the bed with great effort: "Be good, let's go and read the letter that our second brother sent us."

"Yeah!" During the days when His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was away, the little Princess Sizi loved to pester her elder sister, Princess Changle. To her, Sister Changle had the same warm aura as her second brother, which made people unable to help but sink into her.

Just as Princess Changle was reading her second brother's letter with her sister, in the main hall, Emperor Li II was looking at Empress Changsun's back as she disappeared behind the screen, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

To be honest, he didn't dare to tell his wife the truth about the King of Chu. That guy had gone to the capital of Goguryeo to "relax". According to his style, who knows how much trouble he would cause...

"Alas..." Thinking of this, His Majesty Li II couldn't help but sigh softly. If he hadn't sent Yun Shang and Liu Bing to Jingzhou to convey his order, then the young man wouldn't have sent back the army that followed him, and perhaps... there wouldn't be such a dangerous situation now.

Emperor Li II never dared to think about what would happen to him if his little ancestor got into trouble in Goguryeo.

The retired emperor now and then goes to Taiji Hall to beat me up.

Guanyin Bi even let herself sleep in the study room for two months...

The most amazing thing is that the ministers in the court are more submissive than before, but apart from doing their job impartially, there is nothing else left - even his brother-in-law Changsun Wuji is now very dedicated to his duties...

Emperor Li II knew that these ministers were protesting in this silent way, protesting that he, the emperor, was too harsh on the King of Chu.

What can His Majesty Li II do in this situation?

He didn't even dare to transfer the army sent back by Li Kuan back to Chang'an, but these things could not be concealed from the military generals in the court.

As for that group of military generals... there were a few who had bad drinking habits, such as Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde. These rough guys were eager to get close to Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui. After they went to each other's homes to chat and had three rounds of drinks, they put their arms around each other's necks and started to "open their hearts". As a result of this opening of hearts, some "top secrets" spread like wildfire.

Fortunately, everyone finally gave face to His Majesty Li Er and did not tell the truth to the Empress and the Emperor, otherwise... His Majesty Li Er's fortune would definitely be chasing him from behind...

"Pah!" - Just when His Majesty Li II was still thinking about how to bring a certain willful barbarian king from Goguryeo back to Chang'an, a crisp sound rang out outside the palace.

"Zhang Nan, what happened outside?" Emperor Li II thought that it was probably that unlucky kid Qingque who was causing trouble.

"Your Majesty, Princess Changle was playing with Princess Sizi and accidentally knocked over the vase." - Zhang Nan was able to become the chief eunuch of the palace, so he was obviously quite capable. For example, now, after he reported the situation truthfully, he immediately added: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Chu said: This vase placed outside is meant to be broken, there is no need to feel bad..."

"Don't mention that bastard to me!" Upon hearing this, Emperor Li II shouted outside in annoyance.

But soon, he regretted it.

"Bang!" Another vase outside broke.

This time, it wasn't the two princesses' fault.

In the corridor, Princess Changle pushed the vase over with a stern face, then she just raised her head slightly to glance at Zhang Nan who was standing not far away, and then turned and left with her angry sister.

When Emperor Li II heard the sound and came outside the palace, all the two princesses left for their father were two extremely free and easy backs.

Especially our little Princess Sizi, who had a slingshot on her waist at this time, had made up her mind that she would never be friends with her father again. Who made her father scold her second brother for no reason? Sizi really holds a grudge!

That night.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the King of Shu, and the King of Wei, the three "Zhuge Liangs", gathered in the East Palace study today and began to discuss their "plan to aid Chu" as usual.

"Brother, you go out of town hunting every day, and only 200 soldiers are left when you return... Isn't it a bit too blatant for you to do this?" Li Ke usually doesn't give advice to the Crown Prince. After the incident in Taiji Palace, his temperament changed from being arrogant and domineering to being cautious and prudent. "If you ask me, there is no need for you to help my second brother in this way. He doesn't need it."

"Whether my second brother needs it or not is his business. As the eldest brother, I have to do something to deserve him calling me 'eldest brother' when I see him fall into a trap..." It is true that the Crown Prince has fallen in love with hunting, but the guards who follow the Crown Prince on hunting have a hard time - these elite soldiers drawn from the Crown Prince's six commanders would disappear from the suburbs of Chang'an from time to time, and when they reappear, they would be in a fortress in the far north, across the river from Goguryeo.

"Brother, I think it's unrealistic for you to send people to support us from land." After his second brother left, Wei Wang Li Tai's chubby body began to slowly become thinner for some reason: "Now the Hongwenguan has issued the blueprints of the sea vessels, but it will take a lot of time to build them. So in my opinion, why don't we recruit or buy a fleet from the Five Surnames and Seven Families and the Feng family in Lingnan, and then contact Dou Shilun, Lord Dou, and ask him to mobilize the manpower, plus the elite troops that my brother has drawn from the six commanders of the crown prince, and take the sea route and land in Baekje..."

"——Qingque, wait a minute." His Highness the King of Shu could not help but pour a bucket of cold water on his fourth brother when he was talking excitedly: "Like I said before, you can't hide this from anyone, especially our father. Qingque... How about forgetting the manpower from your brother? We are only responsible for getting the big ship, and let Lord Dou prepare the manpower. What do you think?"
