I'm not afraid that the stick is full of nonsense, but I'm afraid that the stick looks fairy.
When Li Chen saw Ming Chongyan outside the Hall of Eternal Life, a thought came to his heart, and then Li Chen wondered: But why is it that no one has come to clean him up yet, this golden and jade god who is ruined outside and spreads rumors every day?
Ming Chongyan is a warlock, so he is the same as all warlocks, swaggering and deceiving.
At least that's what Li Chen thinks.
Therefore, when Li Chen saw Ming Chongyan who was out of the hall at the same time as his father outside the Hall of Eternal Life, he only greeted his father with a smile on his face, and as for Ming Chongyan, he didn't even lift his eyelids.
Ming Chongyan said: "Although the princess does not look like a saint, she sometimes has good deeds, but she has the same heart as a saint in her heart, which is really the blessing of the Tang Dynasty." ”
Li Chen pulled the corners of his mouth very perfunctorily.
Li Zhi asked Ming Chongyan to leave and looked at his youngest daughter, "Yongchang? ”
"Ayer, I don't like him." Li Chen walked up to his father's side, looking a little dazed.
The emperor raised his eyebrows and motioned for Li Chen to go outside with him. Li Chen obediently followed his father's side and slowly walked towards the Taiye Pool in the Taiming Palace.
"Ming Chongyan is quite talented, and he usually talks about political affairs, and he also has something to say. Moreover, his medical skills are also good. Li Zhi said with a smile.
He cured Aya's headache, and Yongchang was very grateful to him in his heart. But one thing is the same thing, he said to his mother that the second brother was not worthy of succession, and said how good the third brother and the fourth brother were, in Yongchang's view, he was provoking several brothers. ”
Li Chen said, he had already walked to the path by the Taiye Pool with his father, the path was winding, the father and daughter walked on the path, and they didn't like to let the people below follow too closely, so they let them follow slowly for a long distance behind.
Li Zhi took Li Chen to the path leading to the center of the lake, there is a small island in the middle of the lake, and there is a residence built on the road, Li Zhi will occasionally go to the residence on the lake to walk around, and sometimes people will bring the guqin with pen and ink, and steal half a day of leisure in the residence on the lake.
In fact, Li Zhi knew what Ming Chongyan said, but he felt that these warlocks thought they could find out the heavens, so they always liked to point fingers at some people and things.
Li Zhi smiled and said to Li Chen: "Yongchang, since the prince is the foundation of the country, how can he change lightly because of a person's words?" ”
Li Chen followed his father all the way to his residence on the Taiye Lake, one side of the residence was built by the water, and in front of it was a large terrace, but there was no railing, and two fishing rods were placed next to it.
Her father brought her here to fish?
Li Chen was a little dumbfounded, she didn't understand what her father was thinking now.
The eunuch beside Li Zhi stepped forward and took out the fishing rod familiarly, and also recruited someone to bring the bait, and after hanging the bait on the hook, he respectfully handed it to Li Zhi, and then retreated.
With a fishing rod in his hand, my father lifted up the hem of his clothes, sat down on a chair leisurely, and said with a smile, "Do you want to fish?" ”
Li Chen shook his head, "Don't." “
Li Zhi turned his head sideways, looked at his little daughter, who was now slim, and said with a smile: "Yongchang, my father has begun to grow old. ”
Li Chen: "...... What nonsense, Aya will always be young, and he will always be a big tree in Yongchang. ”
Li Zhi smiled and looked at the calm lake, "Yongchang, although my father's health is not as good as before, he is not confused. In the final analysis, Ming Chongyan has some real talent and learning, I see that he has something to help, nothing to help, and it is harmless. ”
Li Chen sat down beside his father and looked at the lake with a little boredom, "As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention of listening, even if the speaker is unintentional, it can cause misunderstanding among others, not to mention that this person has a heart." Since you appointed the second brother as the crown prince, the second brother and his mother sometimes have different opinions, and now Ming Chongyan said such things in front of his mother, even if he was unintentional, but when I listened, I inevitably felt that he had evil intentions. ”
Li Zhi turned around.
Li Chen met his father's gaze, and his expression was very calm. She may need to hide it from her mother, but she has a lot less scruples in front of her father.
"The crown prince is unbearable, where can he not inherit? The father went east to Luoyang and let the second brother stay in Chang'an to supervise the country, and the government and the opposition praised the second brother. Ming Chongyan, as a righteous doctor, should have been cautious in his words and deeds, but he spoke wildly in front of his mother, saying that the prince is not worthy of inheritance, so in his opinion, who is the most worthy of inheritance? ”
Li Chen made up his mind to stab Ming Chongyan in front of his father, so he didn't have any so-called scruples.
In Li Chen's heart, no matter what she said or did wrong, her father was willing to protect her.
She copied her father's handwriting almost as if it were true, and a while ago her father wanted to write an edict in the Hall of Eternal Life, and on a whim, she said that she would do it on her behalf, so the handwriting of the edict in her hand was almost exactly the same as the real handwriting, and even her mother could not recognize it.
But my father didn't tell my mother that she would copy my father's handwriting.
Li Chen felt that he could be unconditionally willful in front of his father.
When Li Chen was talking, Li Zhi had already caught a small fish, and he didn't call anyone to come, he took off the small fish and threw it in the small bucket next to him, and said with a smile: "Then according to you, this Ming Chong is open-mouthed, what should I do?" ”
Li Chen said: "Although he can't cure Aya's wind disease, but he can relieve your pain when the wind disease attacks, I really want Aya's to drive him out of Chang'an, and he can't enter the palace from now on, but when I think of the pain when your wind disease attacks, I feel that he should stay in the palace." As he spoke, Li Chen's brows furrowed, very embarrassed.
Seeing this, Li Zhi laughed, "Yongchang, you can't be so greedy and want the best of both worlds." ”
When Li Chen heard this, he was silent.
It's so hard to get the best of both worlds, how dare she be greedy?
Li Zhi asked again: "You came to me like this to tell Chongyan, aren't you afraid that your mother will know?" ”
Li Chen raised his eyes to look at his father, and muttered: "I'm not afraid, I just hate him, I not only hate Ming Chongyan, I also hate all the martial arts families except my mother, these mothers know, but they never blame me." ”
Li Zhi looked at Li Chen in front of him with a bit of scrutiny, some time ago there were rumors in the palace that the crown prince Li Xian was not born to the queen, he has been letting it go and want to see when such rumors will stop, who knows that a few days later, I heard a report that Princess Yongchang punished a few palace maids who chewed the root of their tongues in the garden, and then went to the queen to complain, the queen finally made a move, and ordered that if there were such rumors in the palace again, they would be severely punished.
Over the past year, the relationship between Wu Zetian and Li Xian has become more and more tense, Li Zhi is not blind, but one is a wife and the other is a son, and he is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma. In Li Zhi's heart, Wu Zetian is not only his queen, but also his partner, since he was willing to be called the second saint with Wu Zetian in the past, he recognized her talent in his heart, and was also happy that her talent could be used by him.
Li Xian is a son and the prince of the country, but in Li Zhi's heart, he feels that no matter how good Li Xian is, he is relieved that Li Xian and Wu Zetian are still different.
No matter what Wu Zetian is, as long as he is alive for a day, she will not be able to do anything out of the ordinary.
But Li Xian is different, the young man is hot-blooded, if the power of his East Palace develops too quickly, judging from the situation that he and Wu Zetian are now so nervous that they are on the verge of breaking out, it is difficult for Li Zhi not to worry that the power of the East Palace will suppress all of Wu Zetian's forces, if so, then the imperial power in his hands is also in jeopardy.
Under the imperial power, it is always inevitable to calculate.
Even if Li Zhi was quite satisfied with Li Xian, he would hand over this large piece of Tang Dynasty to him after returning to the west in the future, but that was after he flew to the west on a crane, not when he was still alive.
Everyone knows that it is not easy to be the emperor.
At the beginning, his Ah Weng Gaozu was also the emperor, what was the result?
Although his father is very filial to Ah Weng, is Ah Weng Gaozu really willing to be such a emperor in his heart? Is it really so pleasant to be the emperor?
Li Zhi once had the idea of abdicating early, and when he thought about it, he was sincere, and he changed his mind and wanted to pass on the crown prince until he died.
In short, among the forces of Wu Zetian and Li Xian, Li Zhi's forces are above them, and what he wants to do is not to suppress either side, but to hope that the two forces can contain and balance each other.
It's a pity that the relationship between the mother and son is getting more and more tense, and when Li Zhi is also having a headache about how to ease it, his youngest princess actually ran to her mother in a rampage-like way, and directly picked out those things that seemed to be conspiratorial, so that Wu Zetian had to come forward to deal with it.
Not only did he come forward to deal with it, but he also handled it very decently.
This was something Li Zhi hadn't thought of before.
Li Chen saw that her father had been looking at her without speaking, she blinked, and the whole person approached her father, her eyes wide, "Aya, what are you looking at?" ”
Li Zhi retracted his gaze and said softly, "Aya is watching her daughter grow up." ”
Li Chen: "......"
Li Chen was speechless for a moment, and then remembered what was going on, so she said to her father: "I really don't want to see Ming Chongyan in the palace." “
When Li Zhi heard this, he said: "In the palace, he can enter the palace only because your mother and I want to summon him." Yongchang, if your mother wants to summon him, do you have to tell your mother that he is not allowed to enter the palace? ”
