Summoned
When Zhang Ananda came to the Yue Palace, Li Taizheng was lying on the couch in a depressed mood.
This is not because Li Shimin beat him so that he couldn't move, but he felt that the beating was really wronged, so he couldn't lift his spirits to move.
In addition, the redness and swelling on his face have not subsided until now, so he is even more lazy to move around.
When Ananda told Li Tai that he was going to have dinner with him, this guy immediately got up in a hurry.
In his mind, this must be Li Shimin who knew that he was wrong yesterday, so he wanted to make amends for him.
So he immediately began to call for the maid to come and wash and change his clothes.
There's a reason why Li Tai thinks so.
You must know that although Li Shimin has more than ten children, these children are not always able to see Li Shimin.
And Li Tai is one of the exceptions, when he was summoned by Li Shimin, there were many occasions to dine together before.
In addition, he was just beaten by mistake yesterday and was invited to dinner by Li Shimin today, so Li Tai naturally did not have other thoughts in his heart.
Originally, Li Tai should have entertained Zhang Ananda first, and by the way, he asked Li Shimin about the real purpose of asking him to eat.
It's a pity that Li Tai is completely immersed in his fantasy at the moment, completely ignoring that there will be other reasons.
At this time, Li Tai completely ignored the existence of Zhang Ananda, and only cared about letting the maid wait for him to freshen up and change his clothes, and he didn't even have the intention of inviting Zhang Ananda to drink a cup of tea.
Although Zhang Ananda was unhappy when he saw Li Tai behaving like this, he only closed his eyes slightly, and very simply broke off the idea of reminding Li Tai.
Li Tai didn't know what he had just missed at this time, and he was finally ready to stop after some busyness, so he beckoned Zhang Ananda to rush to the Lizheng Hall together.
By the time Li Tai came to the Lizheng Palace, Li Zhi had already stopped crying and was practicing calligraphy under the guidance of Li Shimin.
After Li Tai entered the door, Li Shimin raised his head and glanced at him, and said casually: "Since the green finch has arrived, let's pass the meal!" ”
At this time, Li Tai still did not see that Li Shimin's attitude was wrong.
He first saluted Li Shimin and Empress Changsun respectively according to the rules, and then came to Li Zhi to see how Li Zhi's handwriting was.
Li Zhi saw him leaning over, stood up in a proper manner, and called "Fourth Brother", and then did not sit down.
Li Tai called Li Zhi "Ninth Brother" a little casually, and then looked at the calligraphy written by Li Zhi.
Seeing that Li Tai's gaze just swept lightly on the piece of paper, he immediately couldn't help but pouted and said: "Although the ninth brother's handwriting is not ugly, it can only be regarded as average, and we will have to practice more in this area in the future, so as not to lose our royal tradition." ”
No matter what Li Tai said to any older prince, Li Shimin would definitely express his approval on the side.
But today's Li Tai chose the wrong object, and actually said this sentence to Li Zhi, who was only two years old and had just started to learn calligraphy.
This made Li Shimin, who was originally interested in teaching Li Tai a lesson, even more angry when he heard it.
So Li Shimin didn't wait for Li Zhi to reply, he snorted coldly and opened his mouth and said: "Qingque's words are simple, I don't know how old you were when you were literate, and how long did it take to practice calligraphy to such an extent?" ”
Li Tai heard Li Shimin's cold snort and scolding before he woke up from the previous expansion.
He looked up at Li Shimin's serious face and replied in a panic: "Father and Emperor, the son is literate at the age of four, and calligraphy has been practiced for nearly a year before it can be seen. ”
Immediately afterwards, he hurriedly added: "Father, forgive me, my son is wrong." ”
At this time, he had just reacted, and Li Zhi in front of him was only two years old, and he didn't know how many times stronger than him to be able to do this.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Li Zhi again, and he was also more vigilant about his "ninth brother".
After listening to Li Tai's answer, Li Shimin snorted lightly, and then continued to ask: "I heard that you privately asked the Shaofu Supervisor to make some special furniture a few days ago?" ”
Li Tai couldn't help but be stunned after listening to Li Shimin's question, and thought: How could such a trivial matter reach his father's ears?
At this moment, he didn't have time to think about it and hurriedly replied: "Father Qiqi does have this matter. ”
Li Shimin continued to ask: "Didn't your queen mother just make it for you before the tenth month?" ”
Li Tai hurriedly replied: "It's true that it has been controlled, but recently, Erchen's body is developing, and some things are already not easy to use, so I will make some in advance." ”
What Li Tai said was completely a reason made up in a moment's hurry, but he forgot that his own mother was the head of the family who was in charge of all the expenses of the harem.
After listening to Li Tai's explanation, Empress Eldest Sun immediately opened her mouth and scolded: "Qingque Hugh is talking nonsense, everything in your mansion is carefully prepared by the queen mother, are you complaining that the queen mother doesn't care about your growth?" ”
Empress Changsun's scolding directly scared Li Tai out of a cold sweat, and he remembered that his mother was next to him, and his answer just now was tantamount to suing his mother in person.
Thinking of this, he knelt at the feet of the eldest grandson queen with a "plop" and said in a panic: "The queen mother misunderstood, the son has only gained a lot of weight recently, so he booked it in advance in order to prevent trouble in the future." ”
After Li Tai's words were finished, before Empress Changsun could speak, Li Shimin asked on the side: "I heard that you are in a hurry to ask for these things, it doesn't seem like they are prepared for the future, right?" ”
After listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Tai immediately replied: "Actually, what Erchen wants is not too urgent, after all, he still has some spare parts in his hand." ”
Li Shimin waited for him to finish speaking, and immediately flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly and said: "The housekeeper in your house didn't tell the Pei Mansion Supervisor that, he wants the Shaofu Supervisor to complete it within five days!" ”
Li Shimin's words made Li Tai's heart tense again, and of course he knew something about what the housekeeper was doing outside.
In his opinion, although the butler was somewhat domineering in doing this, it also established some prestige for him.
Originally, he thought that such a trivial matter should not be able to enter his own Lao Tzu's eyes, but he didn't expect to be poked out now.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly pretended to be angry and said: "The minister doesn't know about this matter, it's all that dog slave who is making an assertion, and the minister will definitely teach him a hard lesson when he returns to the mansion." ”
After Li Shimin listened to Li Tai's words, although he understood what was going on, he did not expose Li Tai on the surface.
He picked up Li Zhi and sat down at his dining table, while motioning for Empress Changsun and Li Tai to take a seat.
After everyone sat down, Li Shimin opened his mouth and said to Zhang Ananda, who was waiting on the side: "Since Qingque's belongings are not in a hurry, you can go and inform the eunuch Pei early tomorrow morning and let him finish the gift that the pheasant slave gave to me first." ”
