322. The leisurely time of the princes and princesses
"Brother Prince, you see that the Fifth Emperor Sister is bullying the pheasant slave again." Li Zhi covered his brain, which was faintly painful, and sued his sister again.
"......" Changle, Yuzhang, the prince.
"Brother Prince, can you report to your mother about our trip to the lake?"
Coming out of the palace, when everyone was about to go to the palace, Chang Lefu thought of something, and turned his eyes to Li Chengqian, who was holding Li Zhi's child, and said.
"I've already reported it, before I came to you, I went to the queen mother's place, stood outside my mother's dormitory and reported the matter, and the queen mother only explained a word, asking us to pay more attention to safety, and didn't say anything." Li Chengqian said.
Changle didn't say anything more, it was quite a distance to go to Haichi Lake outside the Taihu Lake Hall from here, and the weather was hot, so it was obviously not suitable for them to go all the way.
When the four of them left the palace gate, they got into the chariot outside and ran all the way to Haichi Lake.
Haichi Lake is in the west of the Taihu Lake Palace, and the Taihu Lake Hall is connected with the Xuanwu Gate, which is the north gate of the Taiji Palace.
When they arrived at the Haihu Palace, the time was almost two o'clock, and there was a forest from the Haihu Palace, and the car was not easy to walk, so everyone got off and walked.
From the Sea Lake Hall to the Haichi Lake, it takes about half a cup of tea, Li Zhi Zitong planned to walk by himself, but everyone thought that he was short legs and walked too slowly, so he was held by a quick guard, and the group walked towards the agreed place.
There is a medium-sized canoe that can seat about 30 people on the edge of the lake, the sun is only a few feet above the horizon, and the sun is far less intense than at noon.
The fourth prince Li Tai, the eldest grandson Chong, Chai Lingwu, as well as Lu Guogong's son Cheng Huailiang, and Tang Shanzhi, the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, were all waiting for the shade next to Zhouzi.
"Changle, big brother, you're here, if it's too late, it'll be dark before we get on the boat." Li Tai, the king of Yue, saw Changle and Li Chengqiankun coming over from afar, and couldn't help complaining.
"The sun is still so high, we can play for at least an hour." Changle pointed to the sun in the sky.
"Oh, why did you bring the little drama spirit too."
Li Tai was about to say something, when he suddenly saw Li Zhi, who was being held by the guards and followed by Changle, Yuzhang and the prince, and suddenly shouted.
"Fourth brother, why can't I come? Are you just not waiting to see the pheasant slave? ”
When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately struggled to get out of the guard's arms, and ran to Li Tai's side, tilting his head up, with two teardrops, looking at him pitifully.
"Stop, little drama spirit, let's not pretend to cry outside without moving, the fourth brother didn't say you can't come, it's just, hey, okay, the fourth brother welcomes you and we will swim in the lake together." Li Tai was so looked at him that he suddenly felt a headache, and immediately raised his hand to surrender.
Eldest Sun Chong, Chai Lingwu and other teenagers who were already familiar with Li Zhi's childlike personality only pursed their lips and chuckled when they saw this, while Cheng Huailiang and Tang Shanzhi and other teenagers who were not familiar with Li Zhi widened their eyes.
"Okay, everyone, let's get on the boat, pheasant slave, put away your tears, you will live independently next year, don't leave people with the bad impression of being a crying bag." Li Chengqian walked over with some amusement and pulled Li Zhi to his side.
Three princes, two princesses, plus four nobles of the noble family, a total of nine people on the boat, in order to ensure safety, they were accompanied by ten guards with excellent water quality and good martial arts, plus two helmsmen who were good at copying boats.
Among these people, Li Zhi's child was the youngest, and he had never swam in the lake, and when the boat slid out of the shore and swayed slowly on the lake, after the slight dizziness and discomfort at first passed, he suddenly lay on the side of the boat, curiously looking at everything around him.
In the past two years, the prince's performance has become better and better, and as he gets older, he no longer likes to compete with his brothers as he did when he was a child, and he has become more and more like an eldest brother, and the fights between brothers are not as fierce as in the previous two years.
Especially Li Tai and Li Chengqiankun, a pair of brothers-in-law, the relationship has eased a lot compared with the previous two years, and other princes who are not much different in age from the prince are also temporarily dormant after seeing that they are temporarily difficult to compete with the prince.
In short, the relationship between Li Shimin's sons and daughters during this period was unprecedentedly harmonious.
Li Tai is not very old, but he is extremely intelligent, and after discovering that this brother is excellent in all aspects, the heart of competition has faded a lot.
In his opinion, the crown prince is his brother-in-law, and when he ascends the throne, as long as he dies regardless of his will, he will not treat himself badly.
Of course, the premise of this is that the prince has always been so good, and if he finds that the prince is inferior to himself one day, his desire to compete for the crown will immediately pop up.
His father's successful ascension has formed a deep-rooted cognition in his heart, that is, the capable are up and the mediocre are down.
I don't know what Li Shimin and his wife would feel like if they knew what their sons were thinking, but they didn't know what the children were thinking for the time being, at least not at this time.
"Hey, it's still comfortable outside, it's cool and comfortable here, Brother Prince, you often take the pheasant slave out to swim in the lake in the future, the pheasant slave is bored in the palace every day, so pitiful."
Li Zhi lay on the bow of the boat, blowing the cool lake breeze, and after looking at the surrounding lakes and mountains, he suddenly said to the prince with emotion.
"You don't see you idle in the palace every day, where are you pitiful?" As soon as Li Zhi's voice fell, before the prince could speak, Li Tai took the words angrily, and reached out and gently pinched the young brother's face.
"Why isn't it pitiful? I'm in the palace, and every day I face either the palace maid or those walls, how can you understand my mood when you're outside every day. Li Zhi retorted angrily.
"Yo, what do you face in the palace every day are either those palace maids or a few walls? When I go back, I will tell the queen mother exactly what you said, and ask her to separate you early. When Changle heard this, he immediately screamed.
"Fifth Emperor Sister, don't slander the pheasant slave, the pheasant slave has no intention of arranging the queen mother, the pheasant slave lives very happily in the queen mother's palace, the pheasant slave is just, just ......" When Li Zhi heard this, he immediately stopped doing it, and subconsciously wanted to find a reason for himself.
It's just that the vocabulary he has learned now is limited, and he can't find the right words to express his meaning for a while, so he can't help but tie his tongue in a hurry, and there are two bubbles of tears in his big watery eyes.
Li Chengqian, Changle, Yuzhang, Li Tai, and several Langjun from various provinces couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
The joyful laughter of the teenagers startled the few waterfowl that had stayed in the reeds in the distance.
At this moment, on a light boat in the artificial lake in the palace, several princes and princesses gathered together, talking and laughing freely.
