"Or is your reputation in the military comparable to mine?"
"Or maybe your voice among the people is comparable to mine?"
Li Chengqian spread his hands and said fearlessly: "You have never been an opponent in my eyes."
"You are the only one who is still messing around here, thinking that you still have a chance." .??.??
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Tai was furious.
{Received anger value +99 from Li Tai...}
{Received anger value +99 from Li Tai...}
{Received anger value +99 from Li Tai...}
The system prompts three times in a row.
Li Tai's punch also landed heavily on Li Chengqian's face.
Somehow, Li Chengqian didn't dodge, so he just stood there and received the punch.
And Li Tai's punch out of anger was also frighteningly powerful.
Even though Li Chengqian was much taller and stronger than Li Tai, he was still beaten badly.
Seeing this scene, Li Zhi next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help Li Chengqian: "Brother Emperor, are you okay?"
After finishing speaking, he did not forget to look at Li Tai and said with puzzled eyes: "Brother Four Emperors, what are you doing? He is our elder brother, our eldest brother. How can you do something to your eldest brother?"
"He's the one I hit!"
"Apart from being born a few years earlier than me, what else does he have?"
"Over the years, he has made many achievements, but has his misdeeds been less?"
"For offending an aristocratic family, expelling Buddhism, and changing the imperial examination system without authorization, are there not enough curses against him among the people?"
Li Tai had obviously been holding back for a long time, and now he suddenly burst out.
He scolded Li Chengqian directly: "To put it bluntly, he is a hypocrite. He also said that if I want to be the prince, he will quit. Then he quits? Why are you still hanging around here?" "Because I won't let him go!"
Just when Li Tai was scolding him happily.
Li Shimin suddenly came from a short distance with Queen Changsun.
Hearing this voice, Li Tai was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
He almost subconsciously turned around and knelt down on his knees: "Son...son, please bow to your father, the queen and your queen..."
Li Chengqian and Li Zhi both reacted at this moment and bowed to Li Shimin: "My son, pay homage to your father, pay homage to your mother..."
Without comparison, there is no harm.
With comparison, the damage would be great.
Look at Li Chengqian and Li Zhi, who are well-behaved and sensible, and understand etiquette and standards.
Looking at Li Tai's pretentious and hypocritical appearance as he knelt down and kowtowed, the contrast was really huge.
Especially since the two of them had just heard Li Tai's shameless words towards Li Chengqian, the two of them were even more angry.
Empress Changsun's eyes were full of disappointment: "Qingque, I really don't know that you have such a big grudge against your imperial brother."
As she said that, Empress Changsun couldn't help but sneered: "Qingque, Qingque, you are so good at pretending that you even deceived me."
Hearing this, Li Tai's face was full of panic.
He quickly raised his head and said: "Mother, this is not the case, it is not what you see."
As he said that, he turned back and pointed at Li Chengqian and said: "It's him, it's all him. He just scolded me and insulted me. I was forced to panic, so..."
"shut up!"
Li Shimin shouted angrily.
"Do you think I am blind?"
"You think I'm deaf?"
"I and your mother have witnessed this with our own eyes. Do you still dare to quibble?"
Li Shimin was almost driven crazy.
He really didn't understand what he was doting on in the first place.
beat
Brother, insulting his brother, is this his quality, the tutor of the old Li family?
He was also extremely lucky that there was no one in the imperial garden today, otherwise he would have been completely embarrassed.
Li Shimin looked at Li Tai now, and he really wanted to kill him.
He could only remind himself over and over again that this was his own son, this was his second son, he could not be killed, otherwise he would be laughed at.
But reason ultimately failed to defeat anger.
Li Shimin stepped forward directly and kicked Li Tai to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, he pulled a broom from nowhere and whipped Li Tai hard until Li Tai screamed.
When Queen Changsun saw this scene, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
After all, Li Taina is also his biological son.
But just when Empress Changsun was about to speak out to stop Li Shimin.
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Li Chengqian's red and swollen cheeks, and Li Zhi's eyes full of disappointment.
Seeing this scene, Empress Changsun finally retracted her outstretched hand.
Li Shimin was allowed to scold Li Tai, but she remained silent.
And Li Tai finally calmed down after being beaten by Li Shimin.
He now understood clearly that he had been deceived by Li Chengqian.
This guy must have discovered Li Shimin and Empress Changsun a long time ago. What he did just now was completely to deliberately anger himself.
At this moment, Li Tai couldn't help but curse himself for being stupid.
How could he be deceived...
And Li Chengqian stood there, saying nothing, just watching quietly.
It was as if these things had nothing to do with him.
Even in the middle of this farce, he led Li Zhi and Queen Changsun to leave first and go back to the palace for dinner.
In the Royal Garden, the only sounds were Li Tai's screams and Li Shimin's angry shouts.
After dinner.
Li Zhi and Li Chengqian were sitting in the courtyard of Kunning Palace watching the stars. star.
Looking at his brother's still red and swollen cheeks, Li Zhi asked with concern: "Brother, is your face okay?"
"It's okay."
Li Chengqian gently stroked his cheek, nonchalantly.
He was not trying to show off on purpose, let alone to show off in front of Li Zhi.
He really felt that this punch was insignificant.
After all, compared with the injuries suffered on the battlefield, they are simply as big as heaven and earth.
Li Chengqian rubbed Li Zhi's head and said, "Okay, stop crying and think of something happy."
"For example, have you written down all the poems I wrote for you today?"
"Write it down!"
Li Zhi was very proud.
Li Chengqian tilted his head: "Then recite it to me."
"The thread in the hands of a loving mother, the clothes on a wanderer's body, are tightly sewed before leaving, and I am afraid that I will return later. Whoever speaks of the heart of an inch of grass will be rewarded with three rays of spring..."
"Well, Pheasant Slave is really awesome."
I heard my brother's praise.
Li Zhi scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Brother Huang is really powerful..."
Look at the harmony between these two brothers.
Li Shimin and Empress Changsun in the main hall couldn't help but smile at each other.
It would be great if all children could do this.
…
evening.
Manna Hall.
After taking medicine from the Royal Medical Center.
Li Tai sat alone in front of the window, staring quietly into the dark corner of the house.
Because he got rid of his last confidant Xiao Dezi.
As a result, he doesn't even have anyone around him that he can trust and can speak his mind to.
So much so that he feels very depressed now.
That depressing feeling was like someone pinching his heart and trying to crush it in one fell swoop.
Li Tai clenched his fists tightly and stared at the beam.
