Chapter 25: Discord
No matter what you say, you have to be humble with him, so that you can make a good impression.
"Father, I'm afraid this can't be, right? The palace is strictly hierarchical, and the child is just a prince, how dare he share the emperor with the prince? ”
"Hahaha......" Li Shimin looked up and smiled and said: "Tai'er really has a heart, identity is identity, but knowledge has no boundaries, although your two brothers have different identities, but for your father, the palms and backs of your hands are all meat." ”
"Father Xie, the child will go to the south study."
Li Shimin waved his sleeves and said, "Go ahead, if anyone asks, say it's my will." What about the eunuchs around you? Why is there no one to accompany you? ”
"Father, the son has grown up, and he doesn't need to be accompanied by a eunuch. All of them are sissy, and the children don't like them. ”
"Oh, is it? My son has really grown up, and if he doesn't like eunuchs, he likes palace maids? ”
Isn't he living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? He himself can't do without women, is it the same for others?
Although he thought so in his heart, he dared to say it.
"Father, the child doesn't have those ideas, the child just wants to learn more knowledge and serve the court in the future."
"Well, that's right, it's like my son."
Li Shimin lovingly took his head into his arms, and then let go and watched him leave.
The feeling of being embraced by the family of the emperor through the ages is different.
Li Tai felt the taste of being embraced as he walked, he felt the full perseverance transmitted by his body, and the rare tenderness of a man in his prime.
In the feudal dynasty, he killed his brother with his own hands, and forced his biological father to settle down with him, there must be cruelty and indifference in his chest, but he was so warm to him.
Iron tenderness is like that, right?
Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to tell him that Li Chengqian had asked him for his personal eunuch, but after thinking about it again, it was better not to say it, he could only do everything possible to win Li Shimin's favor, how could it be right and wrong?
As the eldest son, Li Chengqian is irreplaceable in Li Shimin's mind, and his accusation against him can only backfire.
South Den.
Lu Deming was talking to Li Chengqian about the "Four Books", and was taken aback when he saw Li Tai: "King Yidu, this is the South Study, and you and the other princes go to school there." ”
"No, from today onwards, I will go to school with the Prince. This is what the father meant. ”
"Oh, in that case, please."
Li Chengqian was not happy, threw down the book in his hand, walked up to him and pushed him and said, "Li Tai, this is the place where the prince is studying, what qualifications do you have to come here?" ”
His companion Du He also walked over and looked at him with a look of contempt.
These two joined forces to reject him, and they didn't speak, and immediately went out of the south study and came directly to find Empress Changsun.
You have to pretend to be very sad, otherwise how can you impress her compassion?
So he found a clove of garlic and wiped it on his eyes, and in an instant his eyes turned red, and tears flowed out involuntarily.
Seeing his son's appearance, the eldest grandson Wuwu was distressed, and while ordering Ying'er to bring him a hot towel to apply to his eyes, he sent someone to the south study to call Li Chengqian.
How dare he resist the decree? Too bold?
He doesn't believe that Li Shimin, who has just ascended the throne, is not angry? The eldest grandson Wuwu is angry on behalf of Li Shimin, and their imperial power has been challenged, and they will not be able to stand it.
The person who came was Zhang Qiuhua.
He lowered his eyebrows and knelt down in front of the eldest grandson Wuwu and said, "Back to the queen, the prince is afraid of delaying his studies, so he specially asked the younger one to come and see what the mother commanded." ”
Li Tai didn't expect Li Chengqian to take him to school, it seems that he has won his heart.
The eldest grandson frowned and said loudly: "Aren't you in the Yidu Palace, how can you speak for him?" ”
Li Tai hurriedly leaned over and said: "Queen Mother, he is indeed his son's personal eunuch, the prince asks for it, how dare I not give it, he is now a person from the prince's mansion." ”
The eldest grandson's face was even more ugly: "The prince is too disagreeable, he has only been in office for a few days, and he doesn't know how thick the sky is, and he dares to ask for his younger brother's people?" I don't want to let my words go, call him to me, can you represent him as a eunuch? ”
Zhang Qiuhua had seen Empress Changsun angry, she was a living bodhisattva in the eyes of the people in the palace, and when she saw her angry, she got up in fright and ran.
"Tai'er, why didn't you tell the queen mother about such a big matter?" The eldest grandson had a worry-free look of concern.
At this time, her heart turned upside down, and she made her eldest son the prince, which was her intention and a helpless choice. Li Shimin has countless wives and concubines, and the position of prince is the dream of every woman. Among the princes, Concubine Yang's Li Ke is older than Li Tai and is also very intelligent.
The Li family's country was taken from the Yang family, and it is unrealistic for Concubine Yang's mother and son to say that they do not covet the position of the crown prince. Out of many considerations, she insisted on making her eldest son the crown prince, just to gag other people's mouths. I didn't expect Li Chengqian to be too disrespectful, and after only a few days in power, such and such things happened.
It was her idea to let Li Tai go to school with him, she didn't want to favor one over the other, and besides, the crown prince was given to the eldest son, so she didn't want to wronged the second son.
Li Tai gently stroked the shoulders of the eldest grandson and said: "The queen mother, she is just a subordinate, and it is not a big deal, the queen mother is unwell now, and the child does not want to block you." ”
He massaged his hands over her shoulders, getting heavier and heavier. The eldest grandson Wuwu responded comfortably, took his hand and said, "Okay, don't be tired of my child." ”
"Don't be tired, mother works in the harem all day, don't be too tired, if the queen mother is willing, the child will come to massage you every evening in the future?"
"Okay, that's for the best."
When Li Tai heard this, this Li Shimin is now staying at the other concubines' place at night, otherwise she would not be so happy. The princes and princesses in the palace are not allowed to enter the Lizheng Palace, which is where their husbands and wives live.
At this time, I saw Li Chengqian hurriedly coming and saw him with an uncomfortable face.
"What is the mother's command to call her child?"
The eldest grandson asked without worry: "The prince doesn't take the queen mother in his eyes?" I let you come, you let a eunuch deal with it? There are dozens of eunuchs and palace maids in your own palace, why do you want your brother's personal eunuch? ”
Li Chengqian glared at Li Tai and replied: "It's not that the child disobeys his mother, it's the teacher who just happened to talk about a wonderful point, and the son can't bear to interrupt his learning, so it's ......."
"Hmph, if only you had such intentions in your studies. Your father ordered Terre to go to school with you, why did you disobey it? ”
"Queen Mother, there have always been rules in the palace, the prince has the prince's teacher, the prince has the prince's teacher, even the school is different, the Thai brother suddenly came to school with me, the mouth is unfounded, the child doesn't believe it, so he ......"
Li Chengqian explained.
Li Tai said: "Don't you understand the rules of the palace? If it weren't for my father's will, would I be so bold? Does the prince have a prejudice against me? But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
The eldest grandson rubbed his shoulders and said, "Okay, there's no need to be like this, you mothers and compatriots, you must love each other." Prince, it is my intention to let Tai'er go to school with you, and it is also the intention of your father, it's still early, go to school, I'm tired. ”
"Yes, the child will leave."
Li Tai took the lead in saluting, and walked out of the palace gate with his front feet.
