The female official led the way from the front, and Li Zhi and Li Yuanai walked one after another on the right path.

Li Zhi suddenly said, "You go and ask the Shangshi Bureau to prepare meals. I will have a meal with my sixteenth uncle later."

The female official saluted respectfully and said, "The prince and the king of Wu have not seen each other for many years, so I guess there must be many things to say. The saint cannot live without the prince here. How about changing the wine to bamboo and leaf green?"

Li Zhi nodded with satisfaction and said OK.

The Shangshi Bureau has only the rules to prepare meals. The prince and Prince Yipin have a meal together, and they have their own relative status, unless there are special requirements.

If there is no special order, the wine prepared by Shangshi Bureau is mostly state banquet wine, either aged Du Kang or aged Fenjiu.

Zhuyeqing is a new wine made with Fenjiu as the base wine, followed by more than ten kinds of precious medicinal materials such as Amomum villossium, Rosewood, Angelica, Tangerine peel, Gong Clove, Zero Fragrance, Guangmu Xiang. Compared with Du Kang, the mellow aroma of Fenjiu, the Zhuyeqing wine has little strong flavor. After drinking, it makes people feel relaxed and moisturized the liver and body. As long as you don’t drink more than ten or twenty kilograms, even people who are not good at drinking will not easily get drunk.

With a bit of solemn look at the female official leaving, Li Yuanai followed Li Zhi a few steps and asked, "This palace man is smart and obedient to the saint, but he can act without being anxious or impatient and steadily, which is not simple!"

Li Zhi paused and said, "You also noticed it? In this harem, the concubines in the prince's mansion remained unchanged. The father was kind and arranged for the concubines in the palace to serve the people, a total of ten people. The father was ill, and many concubines in the harem were worried about their future. This girl was nothing special. She was a little talented man, but she had a very delicate mind and was able to advance and retreat in an orderly manner. She was too much better than the few in my palace."

The ten concubines Li Shimin arranged for him, but only one person has given him the deepest impression.

He shook his head and sighed, a little bored.

Li Yuanai's eyes narrowed, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart. The thing he had been worried about seemed to be about to happen.

A long time ago, he remembered that Li Zhi told him whether he could come up with an idea not to marry the daughter of Wang as his concubine.

Li Yuanai was a little confused at the time and only thought that Li Zhi had a heavy taste and did not like Wang's women.

But Li Shimin personally arranged and inquired about marrying the daughter of Wang, and ordered everyone to wish the world.

Li Yuanai did not have the ability to change Li Shimin's words. In this feudal era, even his own marriage was decided by Li Shimin, the elder brother, not to mention that Li Zhi was Li Shimin's favorite son.

As he grew older, he saw more and more things in the palace and became more and more aware of Li Zhi. Li Yuanai's political awareness was greatly improved, and he had already noticed Li Zhi's thoughts.

Li Zhi was unwilling to marry Wang's daughter as his concubine because of his appearance.

He was not a lustful person, and when he reached his status, he was not short of beauty. What he cared about was the Wang family and the Guanlong nobles behind Wang.

Empress Wang was born in the Wang family in Taiyuan, a famous family in the Northern Dynasty. Her grandfather Wang Sizheng was once the Minister of the Western Wei Dynasty. Her father Wang Renyou served as the magistrate of Luoshan County during the Zhenguan period. Wang was old relatives with the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, and Princess Tong'an, the sister of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan, was the great-grandmother of Wang family. Wang was a descendant of the important ministers of the Western Wei Dynasty, and his parents and families were also in-laws of the royal family of the Tang Dynasty and belonged to the Guanlong nobles. In other words, the current crown princess has two major relationships: Wang family and the Guanlong family of the Taiyuan family...

Li Zhi was most afraid of his relatives. Wang was so confident that he could like him.

Especially since Li Shimin is now terminally ill, the princess Wang, a good-character princess, is the best choice for the queen.

Li Yuanai remembers that in history, Li Zhi indulged Concubine Xiao Shu and Queen Wang to fight, but Concubine Xiao Shu is a dissatisfied master. Even with Li Zhi's support, she couldn't play with it.

In the end, Wu Zetian came out to kill Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu.

To be honest, if Concubine Xiao Shu was more successful and could defeat Queen Wang, there would be nothing Wu Zetian would have done.

Li Yuanai thought about how to avoid the problem.

Li Zhi is also having a headache for his harem.

It was almost a foregone conclusion that the princess of Wang, the princess, became the queen. I wonder if the concubines in the Eastern Palace had the ability to confront her.

The two of them had their own thoughts and came to the inner palace.

A maid with the remaining clear water came towards me. When she saw Li Zhi, she hurriedly gave a blessing.

Li Zhi stopped and asked, "What's wrong with Father?"

The maid whispered: "The saint has just taken the elixir and is waiting for the prince and the King of Wu."

When Li Yuanai heard the fairy pill, his eyes glared out. How could this fairy pill be eaten by normal people?

Du Chunzi is alone, and he eats everything he wants.

Li Yuanai didn't know whether he could live a long life, but like Du Chunzi, he had a strange look of poisons and was a rare person. Anyway, nine out of ten could not stand the test.

Li Yuanai whispered: "How can the emperor brother eat that thing? If there is really immortality, there will be no Tang Dynasty. There will only be one country emperor in this world..."

Li Zhi paused, looked at Li Yuanai with a slightly red look, and then said softly: "Don't you really think of your father?"

Li Yuanai looked at Li Zhi in front of him and understood everything.

Li Shimin knows!

Li Zhi also knows it!

But Li Shimin still ate.

Why?

Isn't there any way to do this?

Who can wait for death quietly when he is terminally ill?

Qin Shihuang could not do it, Emperor Wu of Han could not do it, and Emperor Taizong of Tang could not do it.

They are all about to die!

What if?

What if a miracle really happens?

Anyway, they are going to die, why not give it a try?

At this point, what's the point of eating or not?

It’s better to have that little bit of illusory hope!

Li Zhi whispered: "Wang Xuance was rampant in India this time, and he captured a monk named Naosapo from India. He said that he was over 200 years old and knew the art of immortality. His father asked him to make medicine for prolonging life in Jinbiao Sect. I wanted to persuade him, but his father said it first. If he died of illness, no wonder the monks in India were blamed on him. He asked me to let the monks in India return to his country, so there was no need to vent his anger on him, let alone make things difficult for him."

Li Yuanai felt heavy in her heart and didn't know what to say.

He also heard that Li Shimin was superstitious about the way of immortality in his later years and died suddenly after taking pills by chance. He never expected that there would be such twists and turns in it.

This is more powerless and harder than superstitious about the way of immortality.

The two walked into the inner hall.

After many years of separation, Li Yuanai felt inexplicably sad when he saw Li Shimin again.

It was really difficult for him to connect the heroic and extraordinary Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to the patient who was in front of him with a listless and yellow complexion.

"Sixteen is here! Very good, faster than I imagined!"

Li Shimin's voice was a little weak. Although he wanted to maintain the majesty of the emperor, no matter how hard he tried, his voice could not be loud.

"I have met the emperor brother, I'm late!"
