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

"Ah~ah~~~My brother~~Li Jiajilang~~"

"Zhang Nan! Who is outside?" - In the Taiji Hall, His Majesty Li Er, who was originally reviewing memorials, heard the words "Li Jia Erlang" and his hands trembled, and a stain of ink was added to the place where the comments were supposed to be made on the memorial.

For a moment, he even thought that some bastard had come back.

"Your Majesty..." Hearing the call from His Majesty, Zhang Nan quickly bowed and entered the palace, with a bitter face, reporting to His Majesty Li Er in a low voice: "It's His Majesty Prince Liang... He said that he missed His Majesty Prince Chu, so he wanted to sing a song..."

"..." Emperor Li II still couldn't forget this good son who hid under the bed and gave him advice when he was... um... that... so after hesitating for a moment, he suddenly made up his mind: "Call that kid in!"

"Yes." Zhang Nan took the order and left the hall.

At this time, outside the Taiji Hall, His Royal Highness Prince Liang was still singing: "Don't look at me chattering all the time, when you are in trouble, I will take care of it myself--"

"——Your Highness Prince Liang, please stop singing!"——Originally, Zhang Nan had advised the little ancestor not to be too impulsive, but who was His Highness Prince Liang? He wouldn't leave if he was held, and he was beaten...Except for His Highness Prince Chu, no one could make him yield with fists.

"Why, Father wants to see me?" - His Royal Highness Prince Liang, who had just escaped from his brother Li Ke's supervision and ran to the Taiji Hall to sing "the little song that my second brother taught me", was very satisfied with the result: "It's just right, I also have something to say to him."

"Then please...please..." Zhang Nan was at a loss.

So, His Royal Highness Prince Liang swaggered into the Taiji Hall.

"Father, I'm here!" His Royal Highness Prince Liang decided that he must be more alert today and not embarrass his second brother.

"Hmm." Upon hearing the voice, Emperor Li II raised his head from the pile of memorials.

"Pah!" - Maybe it was the law of nature. The moment Emperor Li II looked up at His Royal Highness Prince Liang, he fell to his knees in front of his father with a "pah" on the spot.

"You are becoming more and more like your second brother..." His Majesty Li Er couldn't tell what he felt at the moment: "But you are not as capable as your second brother..."

"Father, I came here today to complain to you." Li Yin thought of his brother's instructions to him and felt very uncomfortable. "I don't understand why you wanted to let my eldest brother get married when my second brother was not in Chang'an. And the Crown Princess... is too rude!"

"Oh?" His Majesty Li II raised his eyebrows calmly when he heard this: "Yin'er, tell me, father, why is Su Shi not being polite?"

"Father, I asked you two questions. Why did you only answer one of them?" His Royal Highness Prince Liang is now almost the same age as His Royal Highness Prince Chu was when he caused a big fuss in Taiji Palace. So something in his blood may be quietly reviving.

"Your elder brother's wedding date has been set long ago." Perhaps because he had been having a hard time in the palace recently, Emperor Li II still had the patience of a loving father when facing Li Yin, who deserved a beating. "The whole process follows the six rituals of Zhou Li. Each link requires a lot of time, manpower and material resources. Moreover, each step of the six rituals needs to be carried out on an auspicious day. It takes as long as one or two years. Do you think it can be changed just by saying so?" (Note 1)

"Okay." Seeing his father's serious explanation, although he only understood vaguely, he knew that if he questioned it again, he would be beaten. Of course, he was not afraid of being beaten, he felt that the beating he received today was worth it: "Then... Father, let's talk about my eldest sister-in-law's problem."

"I would like to hear the details." Emperor Li II gave a look to Zhang Nan who was guarding the door.

"..." Zhang Nan wanted to pretend that he didn't see it, but there was no other way. After Manager Hong left, he had to shoulder this heavy responsibility...

With a creaking sound, after a brief psychological struggle, Zhang Nan tactfully walked out of the hall - in addition, he also "conveniently" closed the door.

"Father, why did Zhang Nan close the door?" His Royal Highness Prince Liang, who has never experienced his second brother's "happiness" - playing pillar-circling with a certain "Prince Qin" in the Taiji Hall, has no idea how deep the tricks are.

"I am worried that the news will leak out and affect your relationship with your elder brother in the future." Emperor Li II was not completely lying.

"I'm doing this for my brother's own good!" His Royal Highness Prince Liang felt that he was really wronged: "Then the Su family..."

At that moment, Li Yin recounted the story of how Su Shi had rejected Xiao Sizi's kindness and how Sizi had been wronged. After that, he cleverly omitted the process of the brothers going to the East Palace to redeem their sister, and focused on describing the calligraphy and painting that suddenly appeared in the study of His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

After a long time.

"Father, this is the whole thing. In my opinion, my eldest sister-in-law is far inferior to my second sister-in-law who has not yet married into the family. Last year during the New Year's Day, when my second brother took us out of the palace for a tour, Sister Lian'er was fighting with my second brother for holding Sizi from beginning to end. If there were any delicious snacks or fun toys, she would take the initiative to ask Sizi if she liked them. And every time, every time, Sister Lian'er would buy them for her after obtaining Sizi's consent.

Of course, we, the second brother’s younger brothers and sisters, also had a share.

And it wasn’t just Sister Lian’er, even Sister Shuyi who was accompanying her, who was so carefree, spoke softly to Sizi…”

"Brat...you're really capable..." What Emperor Li II was muttering at this moment was obviously not about that little rascal Li Yin.

"Father, are you listening to me?" After Prince Liang finished talking a lot of nonsense, he noticed that his father was actually in a daze, which made him very angry: "Sure enough... Second brother is right... Father is just unconscious--"

"There are some things that your second brother said that you can't say." His Majesty Li Er decided to spare Li Yin today for the sake of the calligraphy and painting that Li Kuan hung in his study: "Okay, father already knows what you mean, go back. Remember, don't reveal a single word of what you said to me in this palace today."

"Father, I don't think I said anything very important, right?" Prince Liang scratched his head and said, "Did I accidentally leak my second brother's secret?"

“Yin’er…” If it weren’t for the fact that this kid’s features resembled those of himself and Concubine Yang, Emperor Li II would have suspected that this child might have been adopted: “You are different from your second brother. He doesn’t like to use his brain, but you really don’t have a brain…”
