Chapter 132: Make a Decision
Although the evidence of the crown prince Li Chengqian's rebellion was conclusive and the crime was unforgivable, although Tang Taizong was sad but could not be tolerated, he issued an edict to depose him as the crown prince and demote him to the common people and exiled him to Qianzhou. As for the matter of re-establishing the prince, there were many discussions in the court, and there were major differences among the courtiers.
In this regard, Li Tai, who is the second son of the concubine, is full of ambition, and his father loves him very much, so it should be the best policy for him to inherit the position of prince. As the third son, Li Zhi is introverted and gentle, with mediocre intelligence, and is inferior to Li Tai in everything.
And the selection of Li Ke as a concubine by the people of Lichu will undoubtedly not be mentioned. There is a difference between a concubine, no matter how good he is, he is just a concubine after all.
Seeing Tang Taizong's hesitation, the eldest grandson Wuji persuaded: "If the King of Wei is established, the lives of the King of Jin and his siblings are worried, I hope Your Majesty will think twice!" ”
Tang Taizong admitted that there was some truth in the words of the eldest grandson, with Li Tai's character and methods, once he became the Son of Heaven, he would definitely cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and kill each other, and Li Zhi had a gentle personality, if he was the prince, his brothers and sisters would be fine. Therefore, he immediately issued an edict to appoint Li Zhi, the king of Jin, as the crown prince, and in order to ensure that the rebellion happened again, Li Tai was demoted to the lord and moved out of Chang'an.
The snipe and the clam compete, and the fisherman profits. Cheng Qian was deposed, Li Tai no longer had the strength to resist, and Li Zhi, the most mediocre in this battle for succession, was undoubtedly the biggest winner.
……
Melodious and bored in the house, Li Ke didn't know where to go early in the morning. The battle for the succession has come to an end, everything has been settled, and the vassal kings have left Beijing, but he has not left for a long time.
Li Ke seems to see it very lightly this time, but the more casual and melodious he becomes, the more nervous he becomes, he is not a person who is at ease, she is afraid that the reason why he did not return to Anzhou will be because of the storage position.
She asked about this matter, and he always replied that there was still something important, and he would leave after dealing with it. But she couldn't see what was important, and she couldn't guess what he was thinking now, and if she continued to ask him, he would just keep silent, but she wanted her to get used to trusting.
Although he still hasn't explained the matter of Xiao Ruolan and Tong Xue, but after going through so many things, she doesn't care what the truth is, which ancient man is not three wives and four concubines, especially since he was born in the emperor's family. There is nothing more important than two people being together, as long as he is the only one in his heart, then it doesn't matter if he has other women or not.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and Xiao Ruolan and her inseparable old maid stood at the door, looking vibrant.
Looking at the menacing master-servant duo, Melodious pursed a sarcastic smile. Sooner or later, she was not in the mood to settle accounts with them, but they came to the door on their own, and since they came, everything was put to an end.
"It's shameless that a broken flower and a willow dare to come back!" Xiao Ruolan came to Melodious with a high toe, and the old maid casually inserted the door behind her back.
Seeing that these two people are pinching Li Ke's absence at this time, they came to teach people a lesson, but this melody statement is really unnecessary. It's ridiculous to say, the subordinates of the Chang'an Mansion have changed batch after batch, and now no one knows her anymore, and everyone thinks that the real princess Xiao Ruolan is the first to look at her, but they sneer at her as the head of the Fengyue place, she can't see a good face wherever she goes, even if she is repaired by Princess Xiao in public, I am afraid that no one will come to help, and it will be considered merciful if she doesn't come up and beat a few times.
Melodious shook his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I don't want to be ashamed, you want a face!" You're a two-skinned face, right? ”
A trace of anger flashed on Xiao Ruolan's flower-like face, and she glanced at the old maid. "How dare you talk to this princess!"
The old maid received the order and immediately stepped forward, but before she could make a move, she reached out and slapped her, and five fingerprints suddenly appeared on the old maid's old face.
This slap came suddenly, and Xiao Ruolan and the old maid were stunned. Melodious will raise her chin, rub her numb palms that are shaken, and smile brightly, her principle of life is either to endure or be ruthless, because she knows that people who dare not stab with a knife are often the first to be knocked down.
"What a slut, he dares to step on the head of this princess and spread wild!" Xiao Ruolan didn't give up, raised her slap and waved it at Melodious.
Melodiously and accurately caught the incoming slap, and gently broke Xiao Ruolan's face began to twist in pain. Fortunately, I learned two tricks from Yun Xuan, and it came in handy today.
Melodious smiled: "If you become a piece of, then no one will step on your head!" She threw off Xiao Ruolan's little arm, she is still very good at pitying fragrant jade, wouldn't it be a pity that such a beautiful woman's arm was broken.
The old maidservant girl helped Xiao Ruolan, who was about to fall, and no longer dared to act rashly.
"I was kidnapped twice, presumably at your behest!" The melodious tone is very light, but the ruthlessness of the tone cannot be ignored. To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to herself, and if she suffers so much pain and humiliation, if she does not get it back, then she is not her!
Xiao Ruolan was obviously a little scared, she swallowed her saliva and bluffed: "What if I did it?" You don't have any proof. Besides, I am the real Princess Wu now, and you are just a slut, even if you sue the emperor, who will believe you? ”
Melodiously pursed her lips, this woman actually pretended to be calm. There is a good saying, you are calm because you are not afraid of death, I am more calm than you because I am not afraid of you death! Now he is more calm than anyone else. She added. "Hey, I just don't understand, you and I didn't know each other when we were robbed and killed for the first time, I don't know how I offended you and made you feel murderous?"
Xiao Ruolan was stunned, killing thoughts? Although she sent someone to rob her, she ......, but why did she say this, she said proudly: "From now on, the long skirt should be laughing, and washing your hands and making soup for you." Ke's status is noble and so good, what woman doesn't want to marry him, but it's a pity that you are caught in the middle. ”
Melodious sneered, angry and angry: "It's a pity that the amorous woman is ruthless, even if you get rid of me, he won't fall in love with you!" ”
Xiao Ruolan was really not calm enough, and she was a little Sistic when she mentioned it. "Shut up!"
Melodious took out a dagger for self-defense, approached Xiao Ruolan step by step with a smile, and said: "Sister shut up, sister won't tell others that you hurt me, it's not that my sister doesn't dare, but my sister disdains." Usually, what my sister can do by herself never bothers others, so my sister will let you taste the pain of disfigurement first! ”
As for why she has a dagger on her body, it's not because she can always encounter trouble in Mingling, just in case, she always carries a dagger with her, and over time she gets used to it!
"Don't! No! Xiao Ruolan was frightened, and she retreated with the old maid.
Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and a group of officers and soldiers broke in.
Melodious and Xiao Ruolan looked at each other, both with a question mark on their heads, I don't know who has the courage to dare to break into King Wu's bedroom. The two had a rare tacit understanding, shaking their heads at each other to show that they didn't know why.
The officers and soldiers who came didn't say much, grabbed the three of them and left.
"Let go of me, I'm Princess Wu!" Xiao Ruolan shouted.
"You're the one who caught you!" The officers and soldiers snorted coldly.
Melodious rolled his eyes, dare to come to King Wu's mansion to arrest people, how can you not know your identity, what are you shouting, it is better to save effort! (To be continued.) )
