Chapter 284: The Hysterical Li Tai
As the New Year approaches, a cloud of joy lingers in the sky over Chang'an City, and the faces of both the nobles and the common people are filled with joy.
Especially in the palace city, the soldiers, eunuchs, and palace people on duty were smiling every day. Because the emperor's condition had improved, he specially issued a decree to double the rewards this year. Now, their families can finally live a happy life.
It’s been a fat year.
Of course, there are also people who are unhappy, and that is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, because he still has to go to Chengqing Palace to deal with government affairs every day. The reason why the emperor is lazy is that Li Chengqian will be fifteen years old in the future, and he is already old.
Come on, let's act like an adult. Anyway, the crowning ceremony will be in two months.
Although Li Chengqian had objected to crowning him now, Wei Zheng, who never looked at the direction of the wind, said: According to the Zhou system, a man is crowned at the age of twenty, but the emperor and the princes often bowed early in order to take charge of the country's affairs as soon as possible. King Wen of Zhou was twelve years old.
The crown is given to the king when he is fifteen years old. In this way, the crown period of His Highness complies with the etiquette and cannot be changed.
Wei Zheng's words gave Li Chengqian a bit of a toothache. I have taken good care of you for many years. Do you deserve to join the emperor in oppressing child labor...
Of course, in addition to working as a child laborer for the emperor, Li Chengqian was also followed by Li Zhi who seemed to have "a hundred thousand reasons". Alas, now he knows what seven years old is, and eight years old is annoying. This kid will soon
At the age of seven, except for eating and sleeping, his little mouth never stopped, causing Li Chengqian's head to prick.
Li Chengqian knew that this little kid was specially placed by the queen to be beside him, obviously to ask Li Chengqian to give him lectures and teach him the principles of life, but secretly to intercede for the fat man on duty in front of Chengtian Gate.
Since mothers have selectively forgotten what happened in front of the Wude Palace, it is natural that I, the elder brother, can no longer care about it. He immediately ordered people to withdraw the punishment of Li Ke and Li Tai, and summoned Li Tai to
After arriving at Chengqing Palace, it was time to have a good talk with him.
"Child slave, why are you sitting on the emperor's seat and playing, why don't you come down faster than me!" As soon as he entered the hall, he saw that little kid Li Zhi playing with puppets on the throne. This is what the prince is used to.
, otherwise how dare he, a baby with milk?
As the youngest legitimate son of the empress, Li Zhi has always been favored by thousands of people. When has he ever been yelled at by someone like this? When he saw Li Tai staring at him fiercely, his little mouth dropped and he burst into tears.
He didn't know why the fat fourth brother was doing this to him. He only knew that he was scared and the crying was getting louder and louder.
After hearing the cry of the little brat, Li Chengqian, who was playing at the back, quickly handed the thing in his hand to Li You, and then came to the palace. Li Zhi, who was crying like a bun, saw his elder brother coming, and was naked.
The little feet jumped into my brother's arms and never came out again.
"Qingque, here you go, you are much stronger than before during this period." After speaking, he waved to Li Tai and told him to find a place to do it. He had to coax the little ancestor in his arms, otherwise
The crying didn't stop, and he was much harder to coax than Li Zhi when she was a child.
"Brother, the prince, according to the imperial court regulations and ancestral family laws, no child slave can sit there. If you indulge like this, you are not pampering him, but harming him. If one day, he wants to sit here for you, you
Do you want to give in too?"
Seeing Li Chengqian put that little kid on the dragon throne again, Li Tai felt jealous in his heart. In his heart, he was the only one qualified to sit on it.
After a long sigh, Li Chengqian walked down from above, sat down on his seat, and said in a deep voice: "Qingque, it's too much to make a fuss. A child slave is still a naughty child. If he doesn't understand the rules you mentioned, he can't do it."
He doesn’t understand the rules you mentioned, he just thinks it’s golden and fun.”
Then he glanced at Li Tai lightly: "As for these rules, my mother also taught you these rules, but when you were in front of Wude Hall, did you ever think of your mother's teachings?"
The more Li Chengqian is so calm, the angrier Li Tai becomes. Why can he talk to him in such a condescending manner? Why can he do whatever he wants? Is it just because he is the eldest son?
"That's because she only has you in her heart. When you were a hostage, she talked about you every day. When you went to fight, she didn't think about you or even thought about food. In her eyes, you are the only one, regardless of me.
Nothing can make her look at me again. Since she doesn't like me, then why can't I choose to be loyal."
As he spoke, Li Tai took off his hat, threw it on the ground, and gave a thumbs up: "You are amazing, you are noble, do you know how I was bullied by Jiancheng Wuzi when I was a child, because it was too much to touch you, the eldest son of King Qin?
It was irritating, so they tortured me in various ways.
You are amazing. After you became the prince, everyone loved you and tolerated you no matter how unconventional things you did.
But what about me? Not to mention that there is no one to help me. Whenever I do something wrong, I will either be beaten or scolded, and I will be ridiculed by the ministers later. In their eyes, I am a useless person and a waste.
Isn't it just because I'm not a prince? So whether it's for the humiliation I suffered when I was a child, or to make those ministers who look down on others tremble under my feet.
I just want to reach the top step by step. I just want to fight with you. I just don’t want to accept your pitiful beatings and touches anymore. Because I, Li Tai, am also a legitimate prince, not your Dong Palace.
of a dog.”
Seeing Li Tai's crazy shouting, Little Baozi Li Zhi started crying again. Li You, who was holding the memorial, quickly stepped forward to hug him, and kept patting Little Baozi's back to tell him not to cry.
Already.
Li Chengqian didn't expect that Li Tai's resentment was so heavy, especially what happened when he was a child had such a big impact on the child. But it's no wonder he was, because he was not Li Chengqian at that time, but he really said this
I can't tell Li Tai.
What he didn't expect even more was that his good intentions would actually hurt this kid's self-esteem, making him hate himself so much. It was true that mutton couldn't stick to dog flesh. It seemed that his horoscopes were not compatible with this little fat guy.
Up.
"Qingque, you can continue talking." Li Chengqian said lightly, and then he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup, without any fluctuation in the expression on his face.
Li Chengqian's indifference once again angered Li Tai. He pointed to the sky with one hand and shouted ferociously: "I don't want anyone to bully me anymore. I can't stand it. I don't allow anyone to bully me. I just want to treat it as a crime."
Prince, I just want to make myself inferior to one person and superior to tens of thousands of people, so that no one will dare to look down on me again."
"Qingque, just like the ancestral family law you mentioned just now, you don't seem to have any advantage in terms of direct descendants, elders, or strength, so my elder brother advises you to let go of your obsession."
Hahaha..., "Prince, eldest brother, I really want to remind you that Prince Yin was also sitting here holding an edict when he was established. But in the end, wasn't he snatched away by his father? So?
Chapter completed!
