In the eleventh year of the great cause of the Sui Dynasty, when the rebels were rising up, Li Yuan visited the ambassador of Shanxi and Hedong.

Li Xuanba's biological mother, Dou Shi, died two years ago, and the lady waiting at the dinner table was Li Yuan's concubine Wan Shi. Among Li Xuanba's brothers, the Wan family loves Li Xuanba the most, not because Li Xuanba is good-looking. Li Xuanba has had a brain disease since he was a child, and his intelligence is incomplete, but at the age of sixteen, he is still like a four-year-old, so Wan is extremely protective of Li Xuanba.

"Mother." Li Xuanba saluted respectfully.

Li Xuanba was in a coma for several months, and the one who stayed with him the most was Wan, at that time, although he couldn't move and couldn't speak, he still had a few traces of consciousness, and he was naturally able to distinguish between good and evil.

"After a day of wandering, it's time to be tired, hurry up and eat something and go back to your room to rest." Wan Shi smiled and said, "You are not completely sick yet, you must pay attention to your body." ”

Li Xuanba was grateful to Wan, but after all, he was still a little strange and had nothing to say, and Wan didn't think much about Li Xuanba's silence when Li Xuanba had just recovered from a serious illness and lost all his memory.

"The news of your awakening will reach the palace soon." When Li Xuanba buried his head in eating, Wan Shi said: "When you were sick a few days ago, Your Majesty was trapped in Yanmen Pass, presumably you will not be in a good mood, when you arrive in the palace, remember to pay attention to your words." ”

"Why did I enter the palace?" Li Xuanba swallowed the food in his mouth and asked with some doubts.

Wan Shi sighed and said, "Naturally, it's because Your Majesty values you. Wan Shi did not tell him that Yang Guang demoted Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's official positions by one level because of his affairs.

Li Xuanba responded, but there were many puzzles in his heart.

At this time, a man entered the door, wearing light armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, handsome facial features, clear outlines, and a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Xuanba, you've finally woken up." The man walked up to Li Xuanba, Li Xuanba stood up, the man hugged Li Xuanba tightly, and said happily.

The man was only seventeen or eighteen years old, Li Xuanba thought for a while and said, "Xuanba has seen the second brother. ”

Since Li Xuanba woke up, only him and Wan, Li Yuan and others have been marching outside to fight, and several of his brothers have also led their own troops outside, so they have not met so far.

Wan was surprised when he heard this, Li Xuanba had lost his memory, how could he know Li Shimin?

Of course, Li Xuanba didn't know Li Shimin, but he knew that Li Jiancheng was quite different in age from him, and Li Yuanji definitely didn't dare to call his name to his face, so he judged that the person in front of him was Li Shimin.

"Shimin, Xuanba's body has just recovered, you should be lighter." Wan's Protector.

"Yes, yes, the second brother is reckless." Li Shimin let go of Li Xuanba, patted him on the shoulder, looked left and right again, and said, "I have lost a lot of weight, but I am still strong." ”

Li Xuanba smiled, turned to Wan Shi and said, "Mother, I'm full, I'll go back to the room first." He nodded to Li Shimin again and withdrew. Li Shimin frowned slightly, but soon stretched out again, and he didn't let Li Xuanba stay to talk, and let Li Xuanba leave.

"Xuanba, can't you recover?" After Li Xuanba left, Li Shimin asked softly, his words full of concern.

"It's a great blessing to wake up, the memories of the past, what's so important." Wan Shi said calmly: "What your third brother was like before, you don't know, now, although he is silent, he has finally opened his mind." By the way, why are you back today? ”

"Things are pretty much done outside, and the rest are small things." Li Shimin sat down and said, "I haven't eaten the food cooked by my mother for a long time, but I miss it a little." ”

Wan Shi smiled and said, "How can it be like being at home when you are outside, since you are back, you can have a good meal." ”

After Li Shimin learned the news that Li Xuanba woke up, he hurried back, but he was really hungry, and the dishes on the table were not yet cold, so Li Shimin buried his head and ate it.

Wan sat for a moment and then went back to his room.

After Li Xuanba left, he also went back to the room directly, he had been awake for a few days, but there were many things that he hadn't figured out, and he didn't want to go out.

"What kind of person was I before?" Li Xuanba muttered to himself, he looked around, his eyes resting on the wooden board at the head of the bed, which had some dents, obviously something very heavy was often placed.

"Madam, the third prince seems to be a different person." On the way back to the room, the woman beside Wan said: "If he had seen the second son before, he would have been happy to rush over, but just now, the third son seemed to be too cold, and even deliberately avoided the second son." ”

"After all, it's the first time we've met, and the people are too enthusiastic, so Xuanba may be scared." Wan Shi said: "Xuanba has been hiding in the room for the past few days, probably thinking about the past, but it really hurts this child. ”

"Woe and blessing, it's good that the third son is like this." The woman had a very good relationship with Wan, and there was nothing to hide from speaking, Wan shook his head and smiled, and stopped talking.

"How many days has he been awake?" Li Shimin was holding a book of the art of war, but his eyes wandered away, and asked casually, in front of him, there was a person half-kneeling.

"Six days." The kneeling man replied.

"He didn't say anything?" Li Shimin continued to ask: "Has he really forgotten the past?" ”

"Probably not pretended." The kneeling man said: "When he woke up, he basically stayed in his room, only to walk around today, but he was just trying to force us to tell the truth. ”

"Li Zhu, I think with your intelligence, the answer must be very true, right?" Li Shimin smiled and said.

Li Zhu raised his head and replied with a smile: "Although he didn't show any anger, he definitely wouldn't doubt what I said, besides, except for those two themselves, everyone thought that they were the ones who started this matter." ”

"You have to remember that this is because of them." Li Shimin said solemnly: "Yang Guang has lost the hearts of the people, the fall of the Sui Dynasty is a matter of time, if the father is the hero in the future, the eldest brother is the prince, he naturally doesn't want me to have a helper like the third brother by my side, so he will think about getting rid of the third brother." ”

Li Zhu was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't dare to answer, although the situation in the dynasty is turbulent now, but the Sui Dynasty has no signs of extinction, how dare Li Shimin say such a thing?

"Okay, you go, if there's any situation on his side, send someone to inform me immediately." Li Shimin said: "In the future, you should come to me as little as possible." ”

Li Zhu nodded and quietly retreated, Li Shimin's gaze returned to the art of war, but he didn't turn the page for a long time.
