The next day, Li Tai again asked to see Empress Changsun.

He said: "Queen Mother, Erchen has just received news that Erchen's concubine has just given birth to a son. ”

"Oh, didn't you say it was born this month? How did you get the news so quickly? Empress Eldest Sun asked heartily.

Li Tai's concubine is pregnant, and Empress Eldest Sun knows about it. According to the production date mentioned by Li Tai, it should be half a month later. If the child has already been born, and the messenger has traveled for at least half a month, it means that the child should have been born prematurely. Therefore, the eldest grandson queen was very worried about the safety of their mother and son.

Li Tai said: "Thanks to the queen mother, their mother and son are safe. ”

Empress Eldest Sun added another grandson, and she was very happy, and she said, "Okay, great joy." It's just right, you should go back and take care of their mother and son. When you have a chance later, you can bring him to show me. ”

Li Tai said: "Erchen listens to your words and leaves Chang'an in a few days." However, his father had a decree that his sons should not leave Chang'an until he returned. The son just left, that is, disrespect. Also, the son wanted to ask his father to give his grandson a name.

Look, can you send a telegram to my father and tell him about it? After receiving a clear reply from his father, the sons immediately left Chang'an. ”

Empress Eldest Sun felt a "chuckle" in her heart, and had a very bad feeling. She said quietly: "Okay, I'll tell your eldest brother and ask him to send a telegram to your father." ”

Li Tai left happily.

After Li Tai left, the eldest grandson queen fell into deep worry, she was wise and wise, and she could not be easily fooled. She understood what Li Tai meant, and wanted to tell Li Shimin the news that she had left Chang'an.

This incident is likely to arouse Li Shimin's suspicions, thinking that Li Tai was forced to leave Chang'an because he was coerced. Because Li Shimin knows Li Tai and knows his thoughts. And he had already told Li Tai that he would let Li Tai stay.

Li Tai's sudden departure will arouse Li Shimin's suspicions, and with Li Shimin's character, he will definitely insist that Li Tai stay in Chang'an.

Empress Eldest Sun was not only worried, she suspected that Mrs. Li also had something to hide about the so-called premature birth of her son. The original delivery date was promised, but it was suddenly born prematurely? Was this so coincidental after she told Li Tai to let him leave? She was really worried because she asked him to leave Chang'an yesterday, and Li Tai lied about this matter.

You must know that Li Tai is a child of the clan, and the matter of his son's birth must be recorded in the clan and recorded in the family tree, and Li Tai will be in great trouble if he lies about this matter.

Empress Changsun really knew this son of hers, and knew that he had done it in order to achieve his goal of staying in Chang'an.

As Empress Changsun suspected, Li Tai really lied on this matter. He didn't get the news of the concubine's birth, and he didn't know whether he would give birth to a son or a daughter in the future.

But he wasn't afraid, and if it wasn't a son that was born at that time, he would have a way to lie. He could say that the messenger hearsay, and even that his daughter was dead in the future. There are a lot of sons and daughters Li Tai, and he doesn't care at all if there is one more or less daughter, not to mention that this daughter was not born in the main room.

Li Tai must stay in Chang'an, he is narrow-minded and lives with himself. Although Empress Changsun said that she would persuade Li Chengqian not to embarrass herself in the future, he did not believe that Li Chengqian and Li You would let him go.

Li Tai can only have a chance to turn over if he stays in Chang'an and gets close to Li Shimin, so he must try to stay in Chang'an.

Li Tai made up this lie just to get Empress Changsun to agree and pass on the news that he was leaving Chang'an to Li Shimin. He also knows Li Shimin very well and believes that Li Shimin will definitely insist that he stay in Chang'an.

Empress Changsun was like a mirror in her heart, knowing that if Li Tai continued like this, she would definitely be in an endless situation with Li Chengqian and Li You in the future.

She thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't come up with a proper solution to this problem. She sent someone to call the eldest grandson Wuji.

Empress Changsun said: "Brother, yesterday I told Li You about letting him leave Chang'an. He's coming to me again today......" Then she told Li Tai's words to the eldest grandson Wuji.

The eldest grandson Wuji said angrily: "Li Tai is really too much. In this regard, he is really not as good as Li You. ”

Empress Changsun said in her heart: "It's not just that this point is not as good as others, but it is not as good as others in any aspect." ”

She asked, "What do you have in mind about this?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "I think Li Tai lied about the production of his concubine, where is there such a coincidence? I'd like to send someone to investigate this. ”

The queen shook her head and said, "No, you must not dwell on this matter." Even if what he said is false, we tell Your Majesty, and Your Majesty is not necessarily angry. If Li Tai said that he was forced to make this decision, with His Majesty's favor for him, I am afraid that he would sympathize with him, but it would cause His Majesty to misunderstand us. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said angrily: "Li Tai has been vicious since he was a child, and his trick is really vicious enough. Not only does he not care about the love of his brothers, but he also doesn't care about the love of mother and son. ”

Empress Changsun felt very sad that the tofu fell into the ashes of the pot, and she couldn't blow it. She said, "What can I do, he is also my own son." Brother, I'm really worried, how can I get wow? In the future, if I leave, I am afraid that Li Tai and Cheng Qian will really fight each other.

Call me, call me ......" She was so sad that she couldn't speak.

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't think of any good way to come up after thinking about it for a long time, so he didn't say anything for a while.

Empress Eldest Sun said: "Don't tell Cheng Qian about this matter, if he knows about it, I'm afraid he will definitely resent Li Tai." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was also very helpless, he couldn't say anything about this matter. This is Li Shimin's own family matter, and it is inconvenient for him to intervene. Now that Li Shimin's authority is getting heavier, he doesn't dare to say it.

He asked, "What then, I can't talk about it, Your Majesty." ”

In fact, it's not just him, even Empress Changsun has to be very careful when talking to Li Shimin now.

Li Shimin is an emperor after all, and all kinds of young and beautiful women continue to appear around him. Although Empress Eldest Sun is beautiful and generous, and has a deep relationship with Li Shimin, she is in her 40s after all, and in some ways, she can no longer meet Li Shimin's needs. In this case, the relationship between the two will gradually begin to produce some indifference.

The eldest grandson Wuji thought for a long time, and said tentatively: "Li You is extremely smart, and he is dedicated to protecting His Royal Highness the Prince, can you find a way with him." ”

Empress Eldest Sun's eyes lit up, and then dimmed again. She shook her head and said, "It's too embarrassing for people. After all, this is our own business, how can people speak? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "The so-called dead horse is a live horse doctor, why don't you talk to him, if he is inconvenient, forget it." What if he could come up with a good idea? ”

Empress Eldest Sun was really helpless, she said, "Okay, I'll try." ”8)
