Chapter 684: Intentionally

Looking at the innocent Li Zhi, Li Yong was also very happy, in fact, he really liked this child, without Wu Cao's disaster, Li Zhi should be better, right?

"It's a secret and I can't tell you, but I want you to remember that you must be yourself and be a good son."

Li Yong whispered, Li Zhi looked up and his eyes were full of confusion, this was a bit profound for him, and he still didn't understand what this meant.

"Still don't understand? If you don't understand it now, then remember it first, and there will always be a time to understand it later. ”

Li Yong patted his head as he spoke, and Li Zhi nodded seriously.

"Okay, brother-in-law, I'll remember it, and I'll understand later."

patting Li Zhi's head, Li Yong was really reluctant.

"This is the last time I'll slap you on the head, and I won't be able to pat you again!"

A puzzled look appeared on Li Zhi's face again, and he asked suspiciously.

"Why is it the last time? Shoot if you want! ”

Li Zhi said very naturally, without the slightest sense of a dignified prince, Li Yong sighed lightly.

"Because your identity will be different in the future!"

Li Zhi was even more confused when he heard it, his identity was different? What else can change? He is still the son of his father and the queen mother, or the younger brother of his sister, what else can change?

"What's changed?"

Li Zhi's head asked, he is a little speechless now, why do adults like to sell guanzi?

"Don't have so many questions, children, enjoy your first hunt!"

Li Yong smiled, okay, if you don't understand, you don't understand, thinking that he hunted a fawn today, Li Zhi couldn't help grinning again, just now he was worried that his father would blame, but now he found that his father not only did not blame but also praised him, he was happy and was about to fly, Li Er was not in a hurry to go out, but a group of civil ministers and military generals were all walking fast, and they couldn't let the emperor wait for them, so when Li Er, Li Yong, and Li Zhi came out of the mountains and forests to the camp, Cheng Yanjin and other ministers were already waiting, Originally, Cheng Biting Jin and they were holding their breath and wanted to settle accounts with Li Yong, but when they saw Li Yong and Li Zhi coming out with the emperor together, they were immediately stunned, and they didn't even dare to mention it, who knows whether it was the emperor's musket or the emperor's musket that Li Yong opened, if this rashly said something to Li Yong to settle accounts, in case it was the emperor's musket, wouldn't it be a direct slap in the emperor's face?

"Li Yong and King Jin fired a few shots, scaring the prey into the mountains, this hunt can only end hastily, although the harvest is not good, but it is still good to come out and relax!"

Li Er said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, if you can't hunt until the prey is still second, it's really good to be able to come out and relax, it's been a winter!"

The eldest grandson Wuji echoed and smiled, Cheng Yanjin and the others also laughed in agreement, although it was indeed Li Yong's musket, but at this moment, even the emperor said so, who would dare to question it? Li Tai finally rushed out of the mountain forest with the guards and said in a loud voice.

"Why did you start the musket? I'm chasing the trail of a bear, and I wanted to hunt a bear or a big insect to sacrifice to my father! ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Your Highness don't need to be discouraged, there will be opportunities in the future."

Li Er said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter if you hunt or not, Qingque can have this filial piety, and it is very gratifying!"

Li Tai looked around and smiled a little smugly.

"Although I couldn't hunt bears and big insects, it seems that Erchen has the most prey!"

Li Yong just laughed when he heard it, he felt that Li Tai was really too much, what was the use of fighting for whose prey was more? Li Tai's archery is just like that, who doesn't know about the government and the opposition? Li Er nodded with a smile.

"Yes, it seems that the blue tinch has the most prey!"

As soon as the emperor's words fell, the sound of sycophants suddenly sounded.

"Your Highness, Divine Shooting!"

"Yes, His Highness's archery skills have improved again!"

"The saint's archery skills are amazing, and sure enough, His Royal Highness the King of Wei is the most like a saint!"

……

Li Tai listened to these praises, grinned and became a fat man of more than two hundred pounds, the praise finally stopped, and Li Er smiled.

"Speaking of which, the most gratifying thing today is King Jin, King Jin actually hunted a fawn with his own hands at such an age, even if he didn't hit the prey when he was as old as King Jin!"

Suddenly everyone's eyes fell on Li Zhi, the king of Jin next to Li Yong, Li Zhi's little face turned red, he didn't expect his father to praise him so much in front of everyone, and he had never experienced such a scene that was noticed by everyone, although he was a prince, but because he was still raised in the deep palace, he didn't meet many times with the ministers, and there were two brothers every time, so he was not noticed, the first time he faced such a scene, Li Zhi blushed and was a little at a loss, and turned his head to look at Li Yong for help, Li Yong gave Li Zhi a relieved smile, and Li Zhi snorted.

"Father, son, son, son were shot with muskets, not arrows."

Li Er laughed when he heard this.

"You know, didn't you shoot a wild boar with an arrow before? However, because you are still young and not strong enough to let the wild boar escape, it is not easy for you to have such an accurate head at a young age, and when you grow up with more strength, a certain and then teach you well, you will be able to hit a hundred shots, no less than so! ”

Li Zhi opened his mouth and looked stunned, after listening to it, he really felt a little flattered, and the entire temporary camp was quiet, because all the ministers were also shocked by the emperor's words, today it is obviously the king of Wei who hunts the most prey, and it is obviously the king of Wei who is in the limelight, why is the emperor praising the king of Jin? What's going on? The ministers who can mix in the court are all human spirits, before they just didn't think of the King of Jin, and now they suddenly noticed a trace of strangeness from these praises of the emperor, hunting today, the sage specially brought the young King Jin to come, and praised the King of Jin, and the sage has not been established as the prince for a long time, so the sage should not want to make the King of Jin the crown prince, right? Although the ministers were still unsure in their hearts, they had a faint thought in their hearts and sensed another possibility, it turned out that it was not the King of Shu who could really compete with the King of Wei for the crown prince, but the King of Jin! Of course, such as the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Jing, Xu Shiji, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and other important ministers of the court were not surprised, they just felt a little emotional, it seems that the sage has made up his mind to make the king of Jin the crown prince, otherwise he would never praise the king of Jin so much in front of the ministers, this is obviously intentional! Li Tai is not stupid, he has never thought about his younger brother before, and now he has noticed that something is wrong, is the biggest threat to himself actually his younger brother Li Zhi? It's not Li Ke, it's not Li Chengqian, it's the neglected young Li Zhi? Li Tai thinks it's particularly ridiculous, how old is the pheasant minion? has been kept in the deep palace, and has no contact with hundreds of officials, how can he compete with him for the prince? Thinking of last winter, the pheasant slave was still snotty all day long, how long has it been, and he is going to compete with him for the position of prince? It's not ridiculous, what is it? However, all this that happened today made him have to be convinced that Li Zhi was indeed his biggest threat, after thinking about it, Li Tai suddenly settled down again, before he thought that his biggest threat was still Li Chengqian, but now it is determined to be Li Zhi, he is relieved, he, the dignified King of Wei Li Tai, the second prince, is brilliant and famous, if he can't compete for a little kid, then he will simply die headlong! The troubles were completely solved, Li Er said happily.

"If you have a chance to hunt again, let's go back to the city today!"

The huge hunting activity ended in such a hurry, most of the courtiers thought that it was because Li Yong and the King of Jin set off the musket, but they didn't know that it was actually because Li Yong said something to the emperor, but everyone didn't have the heart to think about hunting anymore, whether it was to enter the East Palace, this is a major matter related to everyone's official wealth and nobility, most of the courtiers were wondering in their hearts, can Li Zhi, the king of Jin, fight for Li Tai, the king of Wei? It stands to reason that the King of Jin is still young and has no foundation in the court, so it is impossible to win the King of Wei, but today the emperor praises the King of Jin so much, as if he is building momentum for the King of Jin, can it be said that the emperor actually prefers the prince to be the King of Jin? If the emperor's preferred candidate for the crown prince is the king of Jin, can the king of Wei still compete for the king of Jin? Before, everyone thought that the crown prince was already very clear, and the candidate for the prince was none other than Li Tai, the king of Wei, but now they didn't expect that another king of Jin would be killed halfway, which is confusing! Walking all the way back, many ministers regretted it in their hearts, regretted jumping out early, regretted standing in line early, but then they made up for themselves, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military supported the King of Wei, even if the King of Jin will take the throne in the future, it will be too much, right? As the saying goes, the law does not hold the people accountable! Of course, it doesn't seem too late to switch now, after all, King Jin has no foundation in the court! Eh, it can't be said that there is no foundation, they suddenly thought of Li Yong, is Li Yong the foundation of King Jin? Before, many people thought that Li Yong was too young and arrogant, but now that they look at it, they realize how wise Li Yong is! However, Li Zhi, the king of Jin who was watching everyone, didn't know these yet, although he always felt strange today, but he didn't think much about it, because he was completely immersed in the excitement of hunting a deer, and the eldest grandson emperor heard the movement outside and hurriedly greeted him, and asked curiously.

"The saint is back so soon?"

Li Er said helplessly.

"Li Yong's kid put guns in the mountains and forests, scared the prey away, and he could only come back."

Empress Eldest Sun covered her mouth and smiled.

"This is indeed what Li Yong's kid can do!"

While speaking, Empress Changsun looked at the emperor's face, she who had long been extremely familiar with the emperor immediately found out that the emperor seemed to have a knot in his heart, and Empress Changsun was a little curious, could it be so useful to go hunting and relax? Or is something happening again?

"It seems that the saint should go out for a walk often, and the saint will look much better when he comes back."

Empress Eldest Sun asked with a smile, and Li Er nodded.

"After talking to Li Yong for a while, I suddenly felt enlightened."

After talking to Li Yong for a while, it suddenly became clear? That must be talking about the matter of Lichu, the eldest grandson queen is very curious, what did Li Yong say? However, in front of Li Zhi, it seemed that it was difficult to mention this, and Empress Changsun looked at the pheasant slave next to her and asked with a smile.

"How is the pheasant slave hunting today?"

Li Zhi actually scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time and couldn't wait to show his merits, but he saw that his father and mother were talking, so it was difficult to speak, and now when he heard his mother ask, he immediately jumped up happily.

"The queen mother, the son hunted a fawn! It was hunted by Erchen himself, and he was killed with one shot! Erchen also shot a wild boar with an arrow, but Erchen's strength was too small to shoot it to death, allowing the boar to run away! ”

Li Zhi said excitedly, and Empress Changsun touched Li Zhi's head with a smile and said with a smile.

"Well, pheasant slaves are amazing! You can shoot a wild boar at such a young age, and when you grow up, you will definitely be able to pass through the yang in a hundred steps! ”

Li Zhi was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Well, Erchen will definitely continue to practice hard in the future!"

Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.

"Okay, go and see your son, she's been talking about you all day."

If Li Zhi wants to show off to anyone the most, of course, it is undoubtedly a son-in-law.

"Erchen, let's go find my son!"

After Li Zhi finished speaking, he immediately ran into the inner hall with a bang, and he couldn't wait to find his son to brag, Empress Changsun asked.

"What did the sage and Li Yong's kid say?"

Li Er raised his hand and waved his hand, and the palace maids and eunuchs next to him all came out.

"I asked him why Qingque invited him several times but he didn't go, he said that he was just that stinky temper, he didn't like to socialize, and it was boring to sit with a group of unfamiliar people."

Li Er groaned, and Empress Eldest Sun nodded.

"Li Yong has always been a true temperament, which is particularly valuable."

Li Er nodded and continued.

"So-and-so said that he was worried about the matter of establishing a prince, and asked him who he thought was suitable for becoming a prince."

Empress Eldest Sun asked with some expectation.

"What did he say?"

Li Er didn't have a good airway.

"What did he say? He's just there with a calf! Any prince is a dragon and a phoenix among people, he can stand any of them, what is not what he should be mixed with, and beg for mercy from someone, don't embarrass him. ”

Empress Eldest Sun covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this.

"This Li Yong, you say he is timid, sometimes he is bolder than anyone else, don't say he is bold, sometimes he is cowardly and makes people feel ridiculous and angry."

Li Er nodded.

"But it's not, a certain company asked him, this kid finally said a few words that were heartfelt, the first point was to think of it with us, saying that the pheasant slave is more like you, smart and benevolent, and the pheasant slave is the prince, and the three sons will definitely be able to coexist, and then he said, long live or something is nonsense, but a certain is in the prime of life, at least he can live for twenty or thirty years!"

Empress Eldest Sun held Li Er's hand and said softly.

"The concubine also knows that it is impossible to live long live, but the concubine thinks that the saint will definitely live a long life."
