Chapter 960: Thatched House

The Huangzhuang given to Li Tai by Li Shimin is located in the southern suburbs of Chang'an City, which is geographically a little close to Chen Fei's hometown Yongle Village, but there is still some distance between the two.

It was also a village, with mountains and rivers in the background, and a large open space in front of it. Because of the unique scenery and excellent feng shui, at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Yellow Emperor Gaozu requisitioned this place and moved out of the farmers in the village for royal leisure.

After the transformation, the Huangzhuang is quite large-scale, although it is not grandiose, but it is definitely in line with the identity of the royal family.

It's a pity that after Li Shimin ascended the throne, this imperial village was abandoned, because he wanted to build a super-large palace for Gaozu that integrates entertainment, leisure, eating, drinking and playing-Daming Palace. That Huangzhuang is simply small compared to Daming Palace, and it is not worth noting at all.

It's a pity that the Daming Palace has not yet been built, and Emperor Gaozu has died and completely become a thing of the past, and the Daming Palace has only stopped halfway through construction.

Maybe Li Shimin felt that it was inappropriate to give Li Tai Daming Palace, so he simply gave him this imperial palace that had been abandoned for many years...... Although he was only given a large courtyard, he did not completely give him the imperial village.

Even so, it made Li Tai happy for a while. Because other princes don't have this treatment, including the crown prince! Li Tai excitedly thought that this was another obvious signal from his father, and he didn't fall asleep all night with excitement.

Early in the morning, he took the people and horses and hummed a minor tune all the way to the manor.

What happened to the abandoned manor? Repair and repair, take good care of it, and make the rest of the princes envious.

Especially the crown prince. I don't know if this guy has been scared silly recently, but he has become a little silly, and he doesn't react much to anything. Li Tai suddenly felt a little sympathetic to the prince, if he hadn't met a younger brother who was as smart as himself, maybe he would have a very nourishing life, right?

It's a pity that he is more capable than him, and his father also favors him more, and since the prince was punished last time, he has been honestly like a quail during this time. Li Tai suspected that his brother might have been frightened and had a problem with his intelligence, otherwise it wouldn't have been like this.

The only thing that made Li Tai feel depressed was that although his father had always praised him, he had never mentioned the matter of Yi Chu, as if he had forgotten about it, which made him feel a sense of powerlessness to punch the cotton, and he was very depressed.

"Opportunities are always earned by yourself!" Li Tai clenched his fists and sat in the carriage secretly pondering, planning to use the government to push in this direction. It is better to let the father and the emperor completely disillusion with the crown prince, then his chance has come.

But...... What should I do? His father is not a fool, he asks himself if he has the level to wrestle with his father. But there's no way to just wait......

"If only Chen Fei could be used by me!" Li Tai thought depressedly. With Chen Fei's whimsical thinking, maybe there will really be some good ideas, but unfortunately, this person has not been able to be used by me.

Li Tai shook his head regretfully. Chen Fei is really too shrewd, and he is too powerful, he is not willing to use it for him at all, he can't force this point, he just hopes to get along with him, even if he doesn't use it, he has to favor himself, and he may become a powerful political resource in the future.

Li Tai doesn't expect Chen Fei to listen to him obediently, he just wants him to have a good impression of him.

If Li Tai knew that Chen Fei had never had a good impression of him, and was still secretly helping Li Zhi, I am afraid that he would vomit out a mouthful of old blood in anger.

"My lord, it's here." Li Tai was pondering what to do next, when the voice of the butler suddenly came from outside the carriage.

He opened the curtain, and a cold wind blew in outside, which made Li Tai shiver and his stomach a little uncomfortable.

Li Tai frowned, propped up his fat body, and got off the carriage, and the butler hurriedly put on a windbreaker for Li Tai, and chattered: "Your Highness, you should pay more attention to your body so as not to get cold." Actually, His Highness doesn't need to come in person, it's good to let the old man do this kind of thing......"

"Steward Liu, since this Zhuangzi was rewarded to me by my father, I naturally have to come and see it in person, so as not to fall into other people's tongues, and you don't have to say more."

The housekeeper was bored with a smile, and didn't say much. led Li Tai all the way into the manor.

This set of manor, to put it bluntly, is not much different from the house in Chang'an City, fortunately, the scenery is good, there is a large open space in front, and there is a river flowing through the door, even in winter, the scenery is very good, relaxed.

In Chen Fei's words, this is a small country house, and putting on the royal name is equivalent to a layer of gold, which can indeed make others envy for a while.

Li Tai stood at the gate of the manor and looked at the manor for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and asked the housekeeper to push the door in.

The interior of the manor has just been lightly renovated, and although there are still many places to be repaired, it is not bad to be able to get it to this extent in three days. Li Tai is still very satisfied with the whole garden.

At this moment, there was a cool breeze blowing suddenly, and I only felt that my stomach was cold, and my stomach suddenly turned over the river and the sea, and I gurgled and screamed, and suddenly secretly said badly.

It must be a hot pot again! Since Li Tai tasted Chen Fei's hot pot, he has opened the door to a new world, and he has always been obsessed with spicy hot pot. Last night, I ate a big meal regardless of my body, but now it's better, as soon as the wind blows and my stomach is cold, I immediately start to make trouble.

"Lao Liu, where is the latrine?" Li Tai only felt that the back of his buttocks was about to come out, and asked with a purple face.

The housekeeper saw that Li Tai's face was wrong, and hurriedly took him to the latrine, and reminded him outside the latrine: "My lord, the planks of the latrine are a little loose, and they haven't been done yet, so adults must be careful." ”

"I know, I know, you hurry up, find me some thatch!" Li Tai said impatiently. After a while, there was a crackling sound inside.

The butler shook his head and hurried to find the thatch.

Just after the housekeeper left, the five masked men quietly turned over the garden, came to the outside of the thatched toilet of Li Tai's thatched house, and nodded silently. Two black-faced men went out to watch the wind, while the other three stayed where they were, and one of them pulled out a thunderbolt from the cloth bag around his waist! After lighting it, he shook his hand lightly and threw it into the hut......

The thunderbolt was thrown into the hut, and the five masked men retreated very quickly.

Li Tai in the thatched house saw a black thing sparkling in, and almost hit himself, and scolded angrily: "Lao Liu, don't you want to live anymore...... " scolded, and moved his body, but the wooden plank under his feet has not been repaired for a long time, and it is actually hollowed out, Li Tai is a big fat man, only to hear the wooden plank first make a snapping sound, in Li Tai's frightened gaze...... Fracture!
