On the surface, you are crying and wiping away tears, but you don’t know how to be happy on the inside?
Historically, Li Shimin's literary and martial arts skills were second to none among the emperors of the past dynasties. Unexpectedly, his emotional intelligence was also so high.
Li Tai wanted to comfort him with a few words, but felt that with so many people, it was not his turn to speak as a stupid kid.
Wei Zheng accompanied him and shed a few tears, and advised: "The King of Qin is so sad. I believe His Highness the Crown Prince understands you under Jiuquan. He is gone, and there is no point in being sad anymore."
"No, you don't understand the feelings of our brothers."
Li Shimin couldn't stop crying, and after a while, he fainted.
Just act and act, so why bother? If you overact, it's like faking it.
Li Tai was shocked and shouted to everyone: "Where is the imperial doctor? Hurry and save my father."
A eunuch replied: "King Yidu, the prince has passed away. Those imperial doctors are afraid to avoid him. There are still imperial doctors here and there."
Li Tai was nervous for a moment, but he couldn't make any mistakes. If Li Shimin had any shortcomings, it wouldn't have anything to do with Li Tai. Even if he wanted to be crowned prince, there were still Li Chengqian and Li Ke who were older than him.
Thinking in his mind, he quickly helped Li Shimin up and pinched his middle part with his hands several times. Fortunately, Li Shimin regained his composure and opened his eyes, but he was still filled with grief.
This scene seems to be a replica of Zhuge Liang's filial piety in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The difference is that Zhuge Kongming is a minister of the Shu Kingdom, while Li Shimin is the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
"Father, my condolences, how can you make the deceased feel at ease when you are so sad?"
Because he was anxious, Li Tai sounded completely like an adult.
"Tai'er, please kowtow a few more times on behalf of my father, so that he can understand my difficulties and don't hate me."
"yes."
Li Tai glanced at Li Chengqian who was standing aside. His eyes had been wandering around the several palace maids wearing sackcloth and mourning, and his eyes showed the utmost envy.
This person doesn't have any scruples to act like this in such a place?
Li Tai knelt down, knelt several times, and muttered: "Uncle, my father is a benevolent and righteous man, and he has his unspeakable things. If you want to blame, blame me. My nephew is willing to give
You guard the mausoleum for three years."
"Taier!"
Li Shimin did not expect that Li Tai would say such words.
It is undeniable that he killed his brother, and his subordinate Yuchi Jingde shot and killed Li Yuanji. No matter how gorgeous the words are, they cannot hide the ironclad fact.
Now, what he wants is to win over people's hearts, especially the hearts of the prince and the old subordinates of King Qi.
He knew very well that water could carry a boat, but it could also overturn it. What he wanted was not only the country of the Tang Dynasty, but also the hearts and minds of the people.
At this moment, his son wanted to guard Li Jiancheng's mausoleum, could he not agree? But he was still a child, how could he leave his parents and live in the wilderness?
Seeing Li Shimin's expression of embarrassment, Li Tai felt happy in his heart. He really loved his son as much as his life.
Not only did his performance not change him, but it strengthened his determination to stay loyal to Li Jiancheng.
Time waits for no one. According to historical records, Li Yuan will take his place in Zen three months later. He must win his approval before then.
"Father, the prince is my uncle, and it is my duty to guard his mausoleum."
"But, you are so young?"
Li Tai said: "I'm not young anymore. My child will be seven years old soon. In ancient times, there were many children of the same age as me who served as kings of a country. Father, you are brothers and sisters. I am willing to give my uncle a ride for my father."
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with tears and he said: "Okay, that's great. Your uncle is also very happy. Father allows you to keep vigil for him."
"King Qin and King Yidu, we would like to thank you on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Everyone present knelt down, barely shouting long live.
"Everyone, in front of the prince's coffin today, I tell you that you are all the prince's old subordinates, and you shed your blood in the process of his life. In today's battle of Xuanwu Gate, you fought for the prince and me. I will not
It is human nature to blame you and everyone is their own master. From now on, I will treat you like the prince treats you."
There was silence.
"I know that you are deeply prejudiced because of this matter. I, Li Shimin, am an upright person. Regarding the crown prince's position, the emperor once promised to give it to me. However, he went back on his word and granted the crown prince's title to Li Jiancheng. It was his betrayal first. I
What I did today was just taking back something that originally belonged to me."
Still no one spoke.
The master is dead, how can it be their turn to speak here?
These people are really self-aware.
Wei Zheng frowned and said: "Today is the death anniversary of the prince. Can King Qin say a few words? The deceased is the most important, so let him go on his journey in peace."
"Okay, I'm a little excited. Mr. Wei, I'll leave it to you to take care of the prince's funeral. I have other things to do, so I want King Yidu to keep vigil for him here."
After speaking, he stroked Li Tai's head, took Li Chengqian with him, and Li Ke left.
If the three sons of the Li family were left alone here, would they be taken as hostages by these people?
Li Tai felt a little uneasy, but since he had already said something, it was hard to take it back.
Another elder came up to him and asked: "I haven't seen you for a long time. King Yidu is becoming more and more sensible. I heard that King Yidu likes calligraphy. Is there any chance that I can show him?"
"I don't dare. Li Tai is young. He only likes calligraphy because Mr. Ye is a dragon. How dare he show it to others?"
"Oh, at such a young age, his words are respectful, which makes him different from other young masters."
Li Tai was secretly happy. It seemed that the changes that had taken place in Li Tai could be hidden from the public, which was really congratulatory.
At midnight, Changsun Wuyou sent Ying'er to take care of him.
Li Tai was grateful in his heart. Although he was mentally mature, he was still just a brat. He had seen such scenes before, let alone being alone in the East Palace under such circumstances.
At night, Ying'er leaned beside him and asked in a low voice: "Second Master, I heard that King Qin said that you are going to guard the prince's mausoleum?"
"Yeah, what's wrong? Isn't this bad?"
"Of course it's good, but as a child, can you bear to go to such a barren mountain? It's freezing in the winter and there's no place to stay warm."
Li Tai replied: "I don't care how difficult the conditions are. It is the responsibility of a nephew to guard the mausoleum for my uncle. In the Prince of Qin's Mansion, I will not feel lonely if I have my brother accompanying my father and mother."
"Second Young Master, if you are willing, I am willing to go with you to serve you, how about that?"
When Li Tai heard this, he felt happy.
He did this just to cover up Li Shimin's misdeeds and prove his innocence and long-term love.
Could it be that one of his nephews would willingly guard his tomb?
"Okay, of course I am willing. But, I wonder if mother is willing?"
"That's what she means. Let me see what you mean. Since you agree, I will go back and pack my bags tomorrow."
There are not many good things like this when you go to guard a mausoleum and be accompanied by a beautiful woman.
