Chapter 1494 A Different Meeting(1/2)

As Li Shimin's ninth son, although Li Zhi is not the youngest among all sons, he is the youngest among the legitimate sons.

So after birth, I was loved by thousands of people.

He is even the only one among all Li Shimin's sons who were left by Li Shimin to grow up.

When Li Shimin heard what Li Tai said, he would resolutely make Li Zhi the crown prince because he was worried that after Li Tai came to power, his sons, especially Li Zhi, would suffer.

It is conceivable that his love for Li Zhi is more than Li Tai.

But even such a son who is deeply loved by him wants to lead troops to rebel and even have an affair with his favorite concubine.

The blow this incident brought to Li Shimin was a huge blow.

Although at the beginning, Li Shimin tried his best to hold on and not let this matter affect his judgment.

But things went against my wishes. As the first cold air in the 21st year of Zhenguan moved south, Li Shimin fell ill.

Li Shimin, who was afraid that something would happen after he fell ill this time, signed Li Kuan as the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty under his sickbed, and officially completed all the matters of changing the crown prince.

However, although this worry was solved, Li Shimin's condition did not recover so quickly.

The so-called illness comes like a mountain falling, and the illness goes like a thread being drawn.

Although Li Shimin should not be in danger of life with special drugs such as penicillin, his mental state is relatively poor.

So Li Kuan just became the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty and began to work as a de facto state supervision.

The first thing to bear is to consider how to place Li Zhi.

Although Li Shimin deposed Li Zhi and demoted him to a commoner, no specific resettlement opinions were given.

Obviously, he wanted to hand over this task to Li Kuan.

I also want to use this matter to see how Li Kuan treats his brothers and sisters.

"Your Highness, the Ninth Prince lives in this yard."

In the Daming Palace, Li Zhong personally took Li Kuan to the yard where Li Zhi was detained.

Although Li Kuan was crowned as the crown prince, he still lived in the former Chu Palace, it was obviously not appropriate to imprison Li Zhi in the Eastern Palace.

After thinking about it, Li Zhong locked him up in the Daming Palace.

Anyway, Li Shimin lived in the Summer Palace for a long time, so the Daming Palace will not come here a few times a year.

"Xuanwu, you and Li Zhong are waiting for me at the door. I'll just go in and talk to Chi Nu alone."

To be honest, Li Kuan's sense of Li Zhi is still very special.

The little master who followed him, but Emperor Gaozong of Tang in history, has now become the deposed prince.

When I didn't want to compete for the position of crown prince, I actually taught Li Zhi a lot of skills, hoping that he could become a qualified emperor in the future.

However, these are obviously useless work.

"Your Highness, you have a noble status and there is no need to take such risks. Just let your subordinates follow you. I won't say much."

Wang Xuanwu has always been Li Kuan’s personal guard and intelligence chief.

Now that Li Kuan is the crown prince, Wang Xuanwu's position has changed a little, but the work he does is the same.

"No, I know better than you. He lives here alone, and there will be no risk.

There are some things that we brothers and two of us can just say in private."

Li Kuan is not the kind of timid person who is as timid as a mouse.

After all, he is a person who has personally been on the battlefield. Li Kuan's skills are much better than many people imagine.

Otherwise, wouldn’t it be of no use to really be a master riding technique?

...

"Second brother, no, I should call you elder brother, are you going to congratulate you?"

Although Li Zhi was quiet, he could not receive any news from outside.

But he could guess that the position of the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty must be Li Kuan.

It's just when it will be implemented.

Today, Li Kuan suddenly came to see him. Li Zhi keenly noticed that there should be some changes outside.

The current dispute over the crown prince should have officially come to an end.

"Zhi Nu, we haven't met for a long time, right? I remember when you were a child, you always ran to the Chu Palace and liked to eat all kinds of dishes made in the palace.

The most incredible thing is that you eat so much every day, but you don’t get fat at all.

I remember that you always had food and gave the Queen and His Majesty some food back.

Many delicacies in the Chu King’s Mansion have slowly spread throughout Chang’an City with your efforts.

Even the imperial chefs in the palace were forced to come to my palace to learn cooking skills with the chef."

Li Kuan ignored Li Zhi's sarcasm and sat opposite him on his own.

Then he was making tea and talking to Li Zhi.

He came here today not to ridicule Li Zhi.

There is no need for that.

During this period, he also conducted a detailed investigation into why Li Zhi had the actions of that day.

Whether it is the staff of the Eastern Palace or the staff of the Yu Mansion, at this time, they will naturally know everything.

So many things were immediately revealed.

Li Kuan is willing to come here today to see Li Zhi himself. On the one hand, he came for Li Shimin, and on the other hand, after confirming all the situation, he found that although Li Zhi has been trying to fight with him in recent years, his methods are still at the bottom line.

Even if it was to arrange personnel to assassinate Xiao Yumi, it was mainly Yu Zhining's idea.

As the crown prince of the current dynasty, Li Zhi's style can be said to be relatively weak and not cruel enough.

But as his ninth brother, Li Kuan felt that Li Zhi still had a little bit of the taste of childhood.

Killing Li Zhi now is no longer beneficial to him. On the contrary, he will also give a mean and polite evaluation.

So Li Kuan never thought about arranging someone to kill Li Zhi now.

Originally, Li Zhi was a little transparent person in the court.

The reason why he was able to do something was entirely because he was given the title of Prince.

Now that the title is gone, he has no even the status of a prince, he is just a commoner.

Although even if he is just a commoner, he cannot change the fact that he is Li Shimin's own son, politically, he is already a civilian.

To put it in the words of later generations, Li Zhi has been deprived of political rights for life.

When dealing with such a character, Li Kuan naturally has to show his magnanimity.

Of course, deep down, Li Kuan still has some old feelings for this little brother who always followed him back then.

Especially now that Yizi is asking for help in person, he is not easy to refuse.

You should know that Li Shimin has officially given Di Renjie a marriage and betrothed his son to him.

This generation is a bit messy.

From now on, Di Renjie was called Li Kuan, either as his brother-in-law or as his master.

"What's the point of saying this now? Brother, didn't you say something in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? "If you give birth to Yu, why give birth to Liang?"

I admit that you are the most talented, smartest and most insightful among all the sons of your father.

If I knew since I was a child that you wanted to compete for the role of the crown prince, why should I still have to make trouble?

I must have given up early. But you didn't. You always treated me as the crown prince. Even when I didn't think I could become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, you already thought so.

But when I really become the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, you will be fine, and you will actually come out to compete with me in person?

I have almost all my skills taught by you. How can you compete with you?"

After hearing Li Kuan's words, Li Zhi couldn't help but start talking to him.

This period of time has made him feel bad.

After being imprisoned here, no one said anything to him every day.

There are obviously people coming to deliver food and drink every day, but no one talks to him.

After not talking to anyone for so long, Li Zhi felt that he was going crazy.

Sometimes, he couldn't help but look up and talk to the sky and to the ants on the ground.

So when he saw Li Kuan's first meeting, he couldn't help but sarcastic words.

"Time is fate! Zhinu, believe it or not, I never thought about taking the position today before.

It is my dream to be a leisurely prince and comfortable and comfortable prince.

In the early years, I lived according to this dream.
To be continued...
