When Li Chengqian was still the prince of the East Palace, Li Tai was eyeing this position. www.biquge.info At that time, Li Tai was only a teenager, and other princes were either prostitutes in Qinglou at this age, calling friends to buy drunk, or hunting in the mountains and forests, trampling on farmland, but Li Tai was immersed in hard study in the palace, discussing day and night with the palace staff how to get the favor of his father and how to win prestige among the courtiers.

Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared, and conversely, opportunities will eventually abandon those who do not cherish them. So Li Chengqian, who was obsessed with sensuality, finally collapsed, the position of the prince of the East Palace was vacant, and Li Tai became the hottest successor.

After all these years of suffering, when Li Tai realized that he had been able to see the moon, Li Zhi, an inconspicuous little child, appeared in his sight.

Although he is a brother of the same father and mother, Li Tai has always looked down on Li Zhi, in his impression, Li Zhi is still an unweaned baby, crying and crying to find his father to comfort him, he was bullied by his brother and could only swallow his anger, cowardly and weakly hiding on the side and sulking, timid and afraid of things and indecisive, this kind of person taught Li Tai how to look up to him?

However, Li Zhi became his biggest opponent and rival in the fight for the position of prince.

Li Tai thinks about it like a dream now. It's really inexplicable, it's silent, why do you suddenly want to be a prince? Is he the material?

could have been completely ignored, just as he was jumping up and down as a clown, but what made Li Tai even more annoyed was that Li Su didn't know what was crazy and decided to assist Li Zhi!

I took the wrong medicine!

Who are you assisting to be bad, you have to assist such a piece of waste wood? Can you be patient? Did you know that this guy you're trying to help is no different from a piece of mud? The future emperor of the Tang Dynasty must have a smart and wise mind, a heart as hard as iron and stone, and the courage to kill decisively. Why did you make you look at him with blue eyes, and even refuse the solicitation of yourself as a popular candidate for the East Palace?

Too many things can't be figured out, no matter how angry or resentful, Li Tai is very soberly aware that from the moment Li Su decides to assist Li Zhi, Li Tai can no longer treat Li Zhi as a little child.

Li Zhi has become his Li Tai's biggest opponent, even if Li Zhi is a piece of mud that can't support the wall, Li Tai must pay attention to him and treat him as an enemy who is completely equal to himself.

Just because, behind Li Zhi stood Li Su.

Li Su's ability has been taught many times by Li Tai, and he knows how terrible this person-like person with a personable appearance and seemingly gentle gentleman is.

To put it bluntly, the enemy of this battle for the prince is not Li Zhi, but Li Su.

The eldest grandson Wuji sat firmly in the front hall, with a flowing green beard under his chin, not angry and arrogant, Li Tai walked into the hall, and the eldest grandson Wuji got up and saluted Li Tai first, and then Li Tai saluted him again.

Etiquette can not be neglected, even if it is his own nephew, the eldest grandson Wuji's etiquette is also very thorough, so that people can't find the slightest mistake.

After saluting each other, the two sat down, and the maid at home served two teas, Li Tai stared at it, and his face suddenly became a little uncomfortable.

The tea served by the maid is the fried tea created by Li Su, and Li Tai is now disgusted with Li Su, and even hates Li Su's original things.

The eldest grandson Wuji saw Li Tai's demeanor in his eyes, smiled quietly, took a small sip of the tea cup with two fingers, and praised with a smile: "Li Zi is a genius correctly, up to Dingguo Anbang, down to the strange and obscene tricks, it is a rare wonderful thing to bring it at hand, just like this clear tea, I felt monotonous when I first tasted it, and I lost the essence of the tea ceremony when I brewed it, but after drinking it a few more times, I can gradually taste the elegant charm, King Wei might as well give it a try?" ”

Li Tai was angry in his heart, his face was ugly, and his tone was naturally not so good.

"Uncle Mingjian, although the taste of this tea is unique, but the brewing is too vulgar, where is it as pure and elegant as the tea ceremony that has been passed down for hundreds of years? Drinking tea is not only to drink soup, but to appreciate the essence of Confucianism in the tea soup, taste the changes of life, tea soup entrance, bitter, sweet, sweet and spicy, drink it as in the history of life, this is the original intention of the tea ceremony, and this so-called fried tea, boiling water will be over in a flush, according to the nephew, this is Li Su in the bad my hundred years of tea ceremony etiquette, abandon the righteousness of Confucian sages, not advisable. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "The old man heard it, King Wei, you have hatred in your heart, and the hatred is not tea, but people, but right?" ”

Li Tai's expression was stunned for a moment, and then he sighed: "Uncle is wise, Tai has indeed lost his normal heart. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji took another sip of tea, half-squinted and said leisurely: "The Avenue of Heaven and Earth, first simple and then complex, the road is also the same, but it is simplified, no trace, the so-called tea ceremony, the so-called hundred flavors of life, everyone's feelings after drinking are different, but if you let an old man who has gone through the vicissitudes of life drink it, tea is tea, what is the original taste is what taste, the so-called 'Baiwei', is just the sorrow of the world's strong endowment......"

Towards Li Taiyang, he raised the empty tea cup in his hand, and the eldest grandson Wuji smiled: "Li Su's tea is this taste, the real elegant people know that the vulgar is elegant, and everything pays attention to etiquette and righteousness, and even the tea is forcibly endowed with what Confucian avenue, which itself has a bit of vulgarity." ”

Li Tai gritted his teeth and hung his head in silence.

The eldest grandson Wuji glanced at him and said lightly: "Tea is tea, just a soup, instead of being far-fetched, it is better to look at it indifferently, from this point of view, you ...... Not as good as Li Su. ”

Li Tai was shocked, and then awe-inspiring, his expression no longer showed any resentment, and his face was calm.

The eldest grandson Wuji's words, Li Tai understood, he was talking about tea, but in fact he was referring to people.

Li Tai is a smart person, and a smart person only needs a little mention to see the subtleties.

Picking up the tea in front of him, Li Tai took a sip, put down the teacup and smiled lightly.

"It's really a good tea, and it's a pity that Tai missed the wonderful taste of the world because of his own likes and dislikes."

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded with satisfaction, he likes to talk to smart people, perhaps this is one of the reasons why he is willing to support Li Tai as the crown prince, Li Tai has understanding, has wisdom roots, is old in life, and is the first prince in line since Li Chengqian, if these are not enough to make him support, then there is a more important reason......

The eldest grandson, Wuji, like Li Tai, is politically biased towards the Guanlong group.

The common bias represents the common interests in the future, compared with Li Shimin's attitude of deliberately suppressing the Guanlong group now, the eldest grandson Wuji feels that after Li Tai inherits the throne, the Guanlong aristocratic gate valve will usher in the peak of power.

After finishing the gossip, the eldest grandson Wuji gradually got to the point.

"Now that the undercurrent in Chang'an City is surging, the King of Wei did not avoid coming to the old man's mansion, did something happen?"

Li Tai lowered his head and said respectfully: "Uncle Mingjian, Tai has been really uneasy recently, and I ask my uncle for guidance. ”

"What's the matter with King Wei?"

"Uncle does you know that Li Zhi also has the intention of competing for the prince?"

After speaking, Li Tai looked up at the face of the eldest grandson Wuji.

To his disappointment, the eldest grandson Wuji did not show a surprised look and was still extremely calm.

Li Tai chuckled in his heart, and became more and more worried.

The eldest grandson Wuji said lightly: "Just for this?" ”

Li Tai cautiously probed: "Didn't my uncle know about this? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted: "You and Li Zhi are both sisters-in-law, you can fight for the position of the East Palace, why can't he fight?" Your father has many princes, do you think that there are only you and Li Zhi who are staring at this position? A little wind and waves were scared of the six gods, how to be the master of the East Palace in the future? ”

Li Tai hurriedly said: "Originally, it was just Li Zhi competing for the prince, Tai didn't see it, but Tai learned a few days ago that Li Su had decided to assist Li Zhi and help him seize the position of the East Palace, Tai was not afraid of Li Zhi, but Li Su was a person, Tai was really a little jealous of him......"

The eldest grandson Wuji's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and then continued to squint, and said lightly: "Even if Li Su assists Li Zhi, you don't have to be so afraid, no matter how magical Li Su is, after all, he is just a person, he has no ability of ghosts and gods, don't overestimate him too much, fight for this kind of thing, and move the whole body, not only to see the background, but also to compare the connections and prestige, as well as the order of the elders and young in the Confucian etiquette system, you are better than Li Zhi, just a Li Su, are you afraid that he will turn the sky?" ”

Li Tai said with a bitter face: "Uncle Shu Tai is stupid, Tai Shi doesn't know how to cut off Li Zhi's thoughts, the stakes are very high, the opponent is powerful, Tai doesn't dare to act rashly." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes flashed, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "You are the nephew of the old man, Li Zhi is also the nephew of the old man, King Wei, you tell me, why did the old man help you but not him?" There is no such thing as an elder to calculate the younger generation, right? ”

Li Tai's heart was cold, tears were about to come out, and he said in a trembling voice: "Uncle, after the death of the queen mother, Tai has always respected his uncle as a mother, and now his nephew is in trouble, so he asks his uncle to show him a clear way." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was silent.

Weigh the pros and cons, choose and choose, this kind of thing can't have the best of both worlds, and a bowl of water can't be even, this cake is too small, only enough for one person to eat, he eats it, and the other person is gone.

Both of them are their own sister's biological children, and the eldest grandson Wuji, as an elder, should of course be treated equally and impartially.

But there is also a difference between children in the eyes of the elders, they like this more and like that less, secretly stuff a handful of candy into the child who likes more, and then mysteriously warn him that he must not let the other child know. In fact, everyone who is an elder has done this kind of thing.

Eldest Sun Wuji is also facing this problem now, before stuffing the candy into Li Tai's arms, Eldest Sun Wuji felt a little guilty about Li Zhi and the deceased Empress Changsun.

Looking at Li Tai's pitiful expectant eyes, the eldest grandson Wuji sighed.

Put aside whether you like it or not, from the perspective of interests, Li Tai and his general direction are the same, based on this alone, the eldest grandson Wuji has no reason not to help Li Tai.
