Chapter 20 Crocodile Tears
Li Yuanai watched Su Lin leave, and the words of Su Lin leave appeared in his mind, "King Pu was depressed when he learned about the situation in the capital, and was drunk and dreaming, which led to excessive drinking and depressed death."
Li Yuanai felt that Su Lin's statement was extremely credible.
On the surface, Changsun Wuji was dealing with Fang Yiai's rebellion case, but anyone with a discerning eye could see it.
Compared with Li Chengqian's rebellion, Li Tai has a kingly demeanor. He is extremely talented, quick-witted and respectful to the wise and inferior, and has the intention of being willing to rule the world with scholars and officials and all the aristocratic families. Because of this, he has been deeply supported by various second-generation sages and gentry.
It is not without reason that Li Chengqian is afraid of Li Tai.
Compared with his father, Li Zhi's heart and demeanor were all day long. He was benevolent and conscience on the surface, and he was not liked by civil servants.
It can even be said that if Changsun Wuji had not suppressed him, Li Yuanjing and Li Tai would have been distorted.
Although Li Tai lost to Li Zhi, he still felt that his younger brother was far inferior to him and could be won by the supreme position.
However, Changsun Wuji waved his big sword and killed all his confidants, so he killed all the civil and military ministers who supported him after their merits, and became the commander without any chance, completely vanishing the path to promotion.
For an ambitious person, losing faith is undoubtedly more uncomfortable than killing him.
It is reasonable to die of depression.
It’s just that after dying during this period of time, it’s inevitable that people will think about it a little more.
Li Yuanai shook his head slightly, smiled, and felt relieved in his heart. No matter whether Li Tai was killed by Li Zhi or not, what did he have to do with him?
Li Yuanai still knows Li Zhi's nature very well.
Li Zhi is a man who values affection but has little righteousness. He looks down on the flatterers who add icing on the cake and regards them as chess pieces that are overcontrol. He doesn't care about their life and death, but he attaches great importance to his relatives who are suffering.
Just like Ji Fengji, Lu Congbi, the two sinners, one of them is the wife of Li Xiaochang, the sixth son of Yi'an King Li Xiaochang, the wife of General Li Yiyu, and the other is the wife of Du Caigan, the governor of Huazhou, the two prefectures of Zongbei, the Shangzhu Kingdom, and the founding Duke of Pingyu County.
Both of them had the same fate. They both followed King Yi'an Li Xiaochang to rebel in the first year of Zhenguan and were killed by Li Shimin.
Ji Yongji and Lu Congbi also entered the Yeting Palace and became sinners.
By chance, the two of them took a fancy to Empress Changsun and promoted them to Li Zhi's baofu and wet nurse.
Li Zhi respected these two nurses and wet nurses with great respect. He ignored their identity as a sinner and granted them the queen the power to be in charge of the harem.
Even after Wu Zetian became the queen, she did not dare to be arrogant in front of Ji Yong and Lu Congbi.
Li Zhi conferred Ji Shengji as the first-rank lady of Zhou. Here comes a problem: Wu Zetian's father, the warrior, was posthumously named Duke of Zhou.
Duke Zhou and Mrs. Zhou were a couple, while Wu Zetian's biological mother, Yang, was the embarrassing wife of Dai.
Wu Zetian wanted to change Ji Yanji's title, but she didn't dare to talk to Li Zhi, so she politely asked Ji Yanji to give his title to Yang.
Of course, Ji Yongji did not want to make things difficult for Li Zhi, so he asked to be the wife of Lu and give up his title.
Li Zhi was immediately angry. For the sake of his own protection, he did not give Wu Zetian any face, rejected Ji Yongji's request, and also enthroned Yang as the wife of Lu.
This was a real humiliation. He not only protected Ji Yongzheng's identity as Mrs. Zhou, but also specially gave Mrs. Lu to Yang.
It’s completely true that what I give you is yours. If you don’t give it to you, you are not qualified to grab it.
This also shows that Li Zhi's desire to protect his calf.
He could not tolerate anyone's disrespect for Ji Yong, even the Queen Wu Zetian.
I grew up with you and never leave you when it is the most impossible. As long as I don’t commit suicide, no matter how bad Li Zhi is, he will never be able to kill him.
Besides, it really doesn't work. It is also a good story to learn from Fan Li to raft beautifully.
Li Yuanai never thought about rebellion.
People are the most important to know that in this peaceful and prosperous era, facing a black-bellied emperor who connects the past and leads the largest territory of the Tang Dynasty, what is the difference between creating his rebellion and seeking death?
Li Yuanai heard Li Mingda's sob in his ears, and hurriedly got on the carriage to comfort him.
The group continued to travel east, with his prince's golden sign on. The Luoyang guards opened the Luoyang main gate that was not easily opened to welcome Li Yuanai into the interior.
Their convoy was heading towards Luoyang Imperial City.
The Luoyang Imperial Palace was first built in Yang Guang. In order to solve the food problem in Guanzhong, Yang Guang rebuilt the eastern capital Luoyang City and moved the focus of the court to Luoyang.
However, after Li Shimin captured Luoyang, he saw that Luoyang Palace was magnificent and beautiful. He thrust his mind and ordered the burning of the Yang Palace, demolishing the Zetian Gate, and burning the palace built by Yang Guang.
The current palace was renovated on the original site, only a rough one was built, which was not the same as the imperial palace built by Yang Guang back then.
When Li Yuanai entered the cold palace, he heard the news that Li Zhi cried bitterly.
When the news of Li Tai's death reached Li Zhi's ears, he was discussing affairs with all civil and military officials. After hearing the bad news, Li Zhi burst into tears on the spot, feeling difficult for him to feel, and he was too sad.
All the civil and military officials in the court had no objection to this.
They may not have realized Li Zhi's own talent, and attributed the stability of the current temple and the development of the country to talented people like Changsun Wuji and Li Yuanai who ignored his own imperial level, but agreed that Li Zhi was benevolent and filial.
The elder brother of this mother's compatriot died of illness and it is inevitable that he was sad as a younger brother, and they all expressed understanding.
When Li Yuanai entered the palace, they all asked him to persuade Li Zhi when they met the saint, not only to greet him and express their closeness, but also to persuade him to be too sad and hurt the dragon body.
Li Yuanai responded seriously, but she felt funny in her heart. Li Zhi was crying from the crocodile!
Without waiting for a long time, Li Yuanai received the intention of Li Zhi to let his wife and Li Mingda enter the inner palace.
"Brother Emperor!"
Li Mingda didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so his fourth brother died of illness and met his ninth brother again after a long separation.
Compared to Li Tai, Li Mingda and Li Zhi's relationship was obviously deeper, and he threw himself into his arms and wiped his tears with his dragon robe.
Li Zhi smiled lightly and hugged his long-lost sister, as gentle as ever.
"See Your Majesty!"
Li Yuanai led Xu Long forward to salute.
Li Zhi nodded slightly and said, "A family, there is no need to be too polite."
He smiled faintly, and as before, time seemed to leave no trace on his face.
Even though he is already an adult, he still has a baby face and looks honest and harmless, and can deceive the world.
"I asked Baofu to make your favorite crystal dragon and phoenix cake for you and go eat it together. This time I asked her to make more, so we don't have to grab it, just take care of it!"
Li Yuanai couldn't help but remember the scandal of their intrigues when they were fighting for a piece of pastry for many years, and showed a nostalgic expression.
Li Zhi said meaningfully: "Only by eating and drinking enough, you will have the strength to stir upside down."
