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

"No wonder..." After confirming the truth, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but laugh bitterly: "No wonder... before the accident, the last minister you met was your uncle..."

Changsun Wuji knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had won.

He won completely.

Everyone thought that the Crown Prince broke his leg to keep his position as Crown Prince, but little did they know...

This prince, who had been taken care of by his younger brother when he was young, decided to embark on this road of no return when he realized that it was no use hugging his father's thigh and begging for his brother...

Right now, the King of Chu is about to send troops to attack the Western Turks. After the Western Turks are defeated, he will go to his fiefdom Qiongzhou.

In this way... Your Majesty has no reason to continue attacking him.

After the prince was sure that his second brother was temporarily safe, he decided to take action against his uncle.

Because he knew that after Li Kuan visited Changsun Mansion, when he entered the palace again, what he would talk about with His Majesty would definitely be the content of the previous conversation between the nephew and the uncle.

His Majesty will certainly use this as a warning to me, and without knowing the truth, I will definitely choose to take the blame for the prince - even if he is unwilling, His Majesty will not believe it, and will even be more unhappy.

and so……

With a high probability of guessing correctly, the prince planned to add fuel to the fire by threatening to destroy the Su family.

Changsun Wuji could only guess half of the reason why the Crown Prince wanted to destroy the Su family. In addition to the Prince of Chu's reasons, he probably wanted to...

and many more……

Zhang Sun Wuji suddenly realized that if he helped the Crown Prince to destroy the Su family and make Su Xuan lose her position as Crown Princess, then what would happen next...

As long as the prince marries the daughter of one of the Five Famous and Seven Noble Families or a general in the court as his successor princess...

Then His Majesty Li II will definitely shift his attention from His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu who has fled to Qiongzhou to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is in Chang'an and is gaining more and more power...

Although this was just Changsun Wuji's guess, he was almost certain that this was what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to do next.

"Prince...Prince! I really underestimated you..." Changsun Wuji did not have any joy of knowing the truth now. Instead, he became more and more frightened - the prince actually dared to give him a hint, so he must not be afraid that he would not cooperate.

But why should I cooperate?

Zhang Sun Wuji couldn't figure it out. If he turned around and told His Majesty everything...

Suddenly, Changsun Wuji discovered that there seemed to be something foreign in the middle of the box of peach cakes.

Then he thought that this might be the reason why the prince had previously instructed him to finish eating the peach cake - he had just fallen at the palace gate while holding the peach cake, so the peach cake drowned that thing.

Thinking of this, Chang Sun Wuji quickly reached into the snack box and began to search, then...

He found the foreign object.

It was a Taotie jade pendant that had been broken into two pieces - it was the gift that Changsun Wuji gave to the prince on his tenth birthday.

Taotie symbolizes power and status.

At the same time, Changsun Wuji's ambition is also hidden.

But now... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince broke the jade pendant into two pieces - to tell him that if Zhangsun Wuji dared to refuse...

Then, Li Chengqian would rather die with honor than live in disgrace.

If he ever meets his end in the future, he will definitely drag his uncle's family to be buried with him!

"What sin did I commit in my previous life..." - After a long time, in the carriage, Zhangsun Wuji couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "To have two nephews like this..."

-------------------------------------

At the same time, inside the Imperial Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had returned to the East Palace.

"Pu Yun," standing in the front yard of the East Palace, Li Chengqian suddenly glanced at the bare rockery: "When the thunder struck Cheng'en Palace a few days ago, I just remembered that if my brother Kuan had taken away my father's horse lance and I had sent someone to replace it with another horse lance, perhaps that incident would not have happened, don't you think?

“Your Highness… the lightning strike was just an accident. Besides, it has been many years and the Eastern Palace has been safe and sound…” Pu Yun lowered his head when he heard this and tried to speak as gently as possible.

"You can go down." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled first, then turned and went into the study: "Remember not to let anyone disturb me."

"Yes." Pu Yun accepted the order and then retreated silently.

He knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a lot on his mind right now, so he wanted to be alone and quiet.

But in just a moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's wish was shattered.

"Snapped!"

"You lowly slave, why don't you let me see the Crown Prince?!" - Crown Princess Su Xuan stood outside the study room with a look of resentment on her face. Facing Pu Yun who rushed over to stop her from entering the study room after hearing the news, she raised her hand and slapped him in the face: "Don't think that you can succeed just because the King of Chu protects you. Don't forget, whose bowl you hold and whose food you eat!"

"Your servant..." Pu Yun covered her face and was about to continue to dissuade Su.

"Pu Yun, there is nothing for you to do here, please leave." - The Crown Prince had stood at the door of the study room without knowing when. He waved to Su with a smile on his face and said, "Xuan'er, I have a few new calligraphy and paintings. Come, let's appreciate them together."

"Your Highness..." Su Xuan was stunned at first, then she realized that the prince was referring to the slapping of Yu Lian'er in the face, so Su felt even more wronged: "You don't know..."

"I know... I have wronged you." With just one sentence, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince calmed Su's heart that was trying to find balance: "I am sorry for you... I am really sorry..."

"No, it's my fault..." At this time, Su Xuan didn't know that the Crown Prince's words "I'm sorry" really meant it.

After saying this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince unconsciously glanced in the direction of the Taiji Hall as he walked towards the study holding his wife's hand.

father...

At that time, you placed your son behind the screen and eavesdropped on your conversation with Kuandi.

My son once thought that you were really doing this for our brothers’ good.

But now that I think about it, if Kuan-di hadn't changed, maybe we brothers... would have already...

So father, please don't blame me for using the political tactics I learned from you to protect the people I want to protect in the future.

Brother Kuandi, who used a golden hairpin to save Qingque and me from Li Chengzong, not only protected the dignity of Qingque and me, but also the courageous heart that no longer felt cowardly when facing bullying in the years that followed.

So... Father... your son has already made his choice.

Besides... the current situation is all caused by you, isn't it?
