[Rebirth] Anecdote of Li Tang

As soon as this news came out, Li Shimin's plan was completely disrupted, and the imperial order that was originally intended for the Su family was also shelved.

On this day, Su Quan, who had always kept his own law and order, begged to see Li Shimin for the first time.Sitting on the wide throne, Li Shimin looked at Su Quan who was kneeling down on the ground, and he couldn't hear any joy or anger in his calm voice: "Yuanzai means that the Su family... refuses to be with Chengqian." marriage?"

Su Quan didn't dare to look up at Li Shimin at all, but the water was too much to stop, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "I...that's not what I mean, it's just that the little girl is weak, and now she is bedridden, I'm afraid she didn't serve the prince. luck."

Su Quan is an honest person, if he hadn't been pushed to the extreme, he would not openly disobey Li Shimin.It turned out that the young lady of the Su family had heard about the prince's illness before, she had a good family education, and her talents were first-class. Although the prince suffered from leg problems, but given his status, the Su family also acquiesced.But recently, news came out from the East Palace that the prince was inhumane. The Su family felt that they had been deceived under heavy blows.

This is a matter that is easy to understand. For an inhumane prince, the selected concubine can only be a decoration. Without heirs, Li Chengqian's position as the prince will not be secure. At that time, the status of the concubine will only be become the laughing stock of others.

Su Shi originally had a little joy in his heart, but after learning the truth, he was completely desperate.But the Su family did not dare to disobey the emperor's order. Facing the mother who was moaning and sighing all day long, the Su family seemed to be doing everything as usual.But one morning, when the maid went to call Mrs. Su according to the time, she found that Miss Su's neck had been wrapped in white silk, and one foot had left the stool, and she was about to hang it up.

The maid's exclamation attracted everyone in the Su residence, and finally they were rescued, but the matter could not be hidden.Mrs. Su didn't care about dismissing her servants, she just hugged Su Huiru and cried loudly, and Su Quan herself was devastated by this.

He knew that the Su family had many eyes and ears, among them there must be a dark thread laid by Li Shimin, this matter must not be concealed, instead of letting Li Shimin send someone to question him, it is better to go to the palace to plead guilty.

Li Shimin watched Su Quan propping up an old face and saying things that no one would believe, and his heart felt cold.The Su family is the crown princess he has chosen out of thousands of choices, but even the Jingzhao Su family does not look down on his favorite crown prince.

"In that case...let Qianjin recuperate..." Li Shimin closed his eyes, and finally went down the steps.Su Quan looked at Li Shimin with trepidation, and suddenly remembered what Su Huiru said before leaving by pulling his clothes: "Father, where can the prince live for a long time if he gets that disease? No matter how much Your Majesty loves him, you have to do it Jiangshan Sheji thinks about it, if the crown prince becomes an idle prince in the future, although he has no worries about food and clothing, but the daughter becomes a princess, but has no heirs, who can rely on when she grows old? I hope my father will think twice."

Su Dan had to admit that the reason why he mustered up the courage to enter the palace was largely moved by his daughter's words.What Su Huiru said was right, as long as Li Chengqian's illness got better, the crown prince might change hands at any time.The Su family is not a prominent family, and it can't be compared with a wealthy family with a deep foundation. It's better not to get involved with the royal family, at least you can ask for a wise man to protect yourself.

Li Shimin waved his hand, and Su Quan retreated silently.This time the Su family has slapped the emperor in the face, so it is very difficult to get reused, but the men of the Su family have always been weak, and Su Quan has no ambitions, so he doesn't feel too disappointed with such a result.

Li Shimin is the complete opposite of Su Quan.Li Chengqian's illness has already spread. Those whose family background is superior to the Su family's have refused to marry in the first place, but now even those whose family background is not as good as the Su family's will retreat.The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but punched the case.

There is an inner ghost in the East Palace.

This was Li Shimin's first reaction.He has repeatedly ordered everyone in the East Palace to strictly seal the news. Even in the East Palace, only a very small number of people know the news of the prince's illness.But even so, the news spread out, and when everything was about to be completed, it spread out.

Li Shimin couldn't help thinking of the bad news when the news came out.He himself had come to this day under the siege of cunning guns and underhanded arrows. Li Shimin couldn't be more aware of the dirty tricks in the palace.Before Li Shimin himself could react, he had already walked towards the residence of Yue King Li Tai.

At that time, Li Tai held many important positions such as governor of Yangzhou and Yuezhou, but was left to live in the palace by Li Shimin because of his young age.

Li Shimin didn't let anyone follow him, and quietly entered the other garden of King Yue alone.The other garden is very quiet, the rocks are exquisite, the layout is exquisite, and the simplicity can be seen from the heart.Li Shimin's depressed mood was soothed by such a unique scene, and his solemn expression eased a lot.

Along the way, many attendants recognized Li Shimin, but they were all stopped by Li Shimin, until Li Shimin saw Li Tai sitting on a bench in the courtyard.

Although Li Tai and Li Chengqian are biological brothers, the direction of development of the two brothers is completely different.Li Chengqian was tall and thin, tall and straight like a small tree, but Li Tai was a little fat man who was long horizontally, and it seemed that the loose robe would not be able to cover his stomach.It was even more uncomfortable in summer, he could only lean on the cool stool and wipe the sweat from his forehead constantly.

To Li Shimin's surprise, besides Li Tai, there was another person in the courtyard who Li Shimin was also very familiar with. It was Wang Gui, whom he personally selected for Li Tai's lecture.

Although Li Tai was sweating profusely, he listened so intently to Wang Gui's speech that he didn't even notice Li Shimin approaching quietly.

When Li Shimin got closer, he heard that Wang Gui was explaining the words "loyalty" and "filial piety" to Li Tai.Wang Gui mentioned Li Shimin in his speech, pointing out that Li Shimin is both a monarch and a father. As a subject, Li Tai should be loyal to the emperor, and as a son, he should be filial to the emperor.

Li Tai listened very carefully, and finally Wang Gui was the first to discover Li Shimin, and stood up in surprise.At this time, the anger in Li Shimin's heart had been completely suppressed, and he looked at Li Tai with a father's unique kindness in his eyes.

"What was Qingque doing just now?" Li Shimin asked kindly.

"My son is asking Taifu Wang for advice, what is "loyalty" and "filial piety"?" Li Tai replied respectfully.

"Oh?" Li Shimin watched his son standing up with his chubby belly, and inexplicably felt that he was naive.

"Is there any gain?" Li Shimin smiled, making up his mind to listen to Li Tai's words.

"My son feels that what Mr. said is reasonable. As a minister, you should be loyal to your duties, and you should not be negligent and slack because of estrangement. If you are a son, you should serve your relatives with filial piety, and you are duty-bound."

After hearing this, Li Shimin didn't speak for a long time.After a while he silently glanced at Wang Gui, nodded and said, "Shu Jie, you are a good gentleman."

Li Tai's words were clear and plain, as a minister and a son, even though he and Li Chengqian were born of the same mother, he never had the slightest thought of overstepping the rules.According to Li Shimin's judgment, Donggong leaked the news this time, and it was not Li Tai's handwriting.

After figuring this out, Li Shimin felt a little guilty about his son.As Li Chengqian is the crown prince, Li Shimin naturally pays more attention and love to him than Li Tai.It was not until today that Li Shimin discovered that his son, apart from his admirable handwriting, was also first-class in talent, learning and conduct, which was not inferior to his own brother.

Li Shimin stretched out his hand and patted Li Tai's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Qingque, it's getting hot, going to court every day, going in and out, isn't it tiring?"

Qing Que's face flushed, and he hesitated for a moment like a child whose lie had been exposed.

Li Shimin looked at his son in front of him, and felt that he had returned to the time when he was dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses. Li Tai was still the shy little green bird who was pulling his clothes, his heart softened, and he said immediately: "From today onwards, You don't have to ride a horse into the palace anymore, take a ride."

The prince was allowed to enter the palace in a sedan chair, which is an honor that even the crown prince Li Chengqian did not have. Li Tai was also a little flattered: "Thank you, father."

Seeing Li Taiming's joy clearly written on his face, Li Shimin's mood became much clearer, even when he arrived at the East Palace, he still had a smile on his face.

It's a pity that when we got to the door of Li Chengqian's bedroom, his smile couldn't last.Li Chengqian's illness was a big rock weighing on his heart, making him restless.

He clenched his fists hard, trying to make his expression look more relaxed.When he entered the house, nothing miraculous happened.

The only person awake in the room was Xinxin, while Li Chengqian was sound asleep on the bed, not aware of the emperor's arrival at all.

Just as Xin wanted to get up and salute, she was stopped by Li Shimin.

"How is the prince?" Li Shimin led Xin to the outer hall, looking at the haggard young man and asked.

Xin Xin shook her head lightly: "The imperial doctor has come to see her in turn, and the medicine has improved. Maybe the medicine has not taken effect, and there is no improvement yet."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Is it the legs or..." Before he finished speaking, he stopped.Li Chengqian's illness made it difficult for Li Shimin to talk about it. As soon as he finished speaking, both of them fell silent.

Xin Xin could only shake his head, Li Shimin said nothing, and ordered all the servants of the Eastern Palace to be gathered together, determined to thoroughly investigate the source of the leak.

The attendants were somehow gathered together and brought into the courtyard in rows.

The courtyard has already been arranged, and there are also a lot of bamboo stools and torture sticks.Standing on the steps, Yixin faintly heard a strange sound.

After a while, there was a commotion in the crowd.
