Ying'er smiled and said, "Second Young Master, won't you stay for a while?"
Li Tai said, "I'm here to congratulate my mother, Ying'er. My mother is pregnant, so you'll have a good life and take care of her."
"That's right, it's a slave's blessing to serve the queen. Of course I will do my best. Second Young Master, is it much more comfortable in the palace?"
"nonsense."
After Li Tai finished speaking, he looked at her deeply and left.
This Li Zhi came at the right time. He conceived Li Shimin as soon as he ascended the throne. This was undoubtedly a great gift for Li Shimin when he became emperor.
People often say, love the big one, prefer the small one, and put the one in the middle.
Could it be that he, Li Tai, is a character that he personally dislikes dogs?
Take Empress Changsun as an example. She just wanted Wei Zheng to be his teacher, but she didn't agree. She also wanted him to be a teacher to the prince. Li Chengqian himself had two teachers, Lu Deming and Kong Yingda. She was so desperate
So biased.
Back in the palace, the more I thought about it, the more uncomfortable I became.
"Second Young Master, it's time to eat."
Zhang Qiuhua called him in a sissy tone.
"Don't eat, I have no appetite."
"Second Young Master, you have been eating simple meals outside for so long. Today the kitchen specially prepared fish, meat, chicken and duck for you. This is what the Queen specially ordered."
When Li Tai heard this, he immediately got excited and asked him: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. The Queen feels very sorry for the Second Young Master. She told us to serve you well and even praised you as a rare good boy."
Zhang Qiuhua is eloquent and eloquent, which Li Tai likes in his heart.
What he wants is to have a sense of presence in the palace. In the past, Li Chengqian received special attention, and now there is another person coming to compete with him for happiness and the throne. Can he not be flustered?
"Yes, Second Young Master, the Emperor also told us to eat whatever you like."
Lian'er also echoed.
Is it true? They are busy being emperors and queens and busy creating humans, but can they still care about him?
Just as I was feeling both happy and sad, I heard a palace maid coming to report: "The prince is here."
He is here? What is he here for? He is the prince now. Although he has no chance of being crowned king in this life, as a prince he is a head above him.
Li Tai hurried forward to greet him and saw Li Chengqian walking straight over with a clay horse in his hand.
"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."
Just as he was about to salute, he grabbed him and said, "Brother Tai, there are so many etiquettes here. We are brothers and there is no need for these red tapes."
"That's not possible. In the palace, status is important. Is this why His Highness came to me?"
Li Tai took the mud horse from his hand and asked him.
"Yes and no."
Damn it, he has only been the prince for a few days and he is like this? He can’t even speak clearly?
"I haven't seen you for some days, and the prince can't hold his tongue straight when he talks? Do you want my maid in the palace?"
Li Chengqian patted him and said with a smile: "Brother Tai, you are so smart, but what I want is not the palace maid, but him."
Li Tai looked up and saw that he was actually referring to Zhang Qiuhua.
What is he doing? Is he trying to poach him? He is the most powerful eunuch in his palace. The others are all elderly eunuchs, and he hates them very much.
Is he trying to steal love with a sword?
His teeth were itching with hatred, but he said calmly: "Okay, you are the prince, you can take whatever you want. Aren't you just a slave?"
"Okay, this is what you promised. If my mother asks, you can only say that you gave it to me."
Stealing someone's wife and asking someone to agree to it. Such a person deserves to be treated as a prince in vain.
"Okay, I will definitely do what you taught me. Brother Prince, my mother is going to give us another younger brother and sister. Are you happy?"
He wanted to test his opinion on Changsun Wuyou's pregnancy.
"Happy? Are you happy? Brother Tai, if my mother gives birth to another prince, we will lose a little care. Only a fool will be happy."
Li Tai asked him seriously: "Are you worried that a prince will be born who will compete with you for the crown prince position in the future?"
"Nonsense. What else can I say? It would be great if I gave birth to a princess, but it would be bad if I gave birth to a prince."
After saying that, he turned to Zhang Qiuhua and said, "If you don't want to come with me, the King of Yidu has agreed."
Zhang Qiuhua looked at Li Tai, kowtowed and said, "King Yidu, I'm going."
Li Tai looked at his happy expression and thought to himself, isn't it just to climb a high branch? As for that? In the future, it will be nothing but a bamboo basket.
"Go ahead."
After watching the two people and the people from the Donggong Mansion leave, Lian'er urged him to eat again, and even lost his appetite.
What is Li Chengqian doing? He already has more eunuchs in his palace than he does, and yet he wants people from him. Isn't this a show?
"I have no appetite, I can't eat."
"Why are you doing this? It's just a eunuch. You can go back to the Empress tomorrow and ask for a younger one. Besides, don't you have me?"
Lian'er blushed as she spoke.
This woman has reached the age of marriage. She is probably in heat, right? The way she looked at him seemed to have a blazing fire burning.
"What do you know? This is not a slave problem at all."
Li Tai glared at her and went into the room to sleep.
I can't figure it out in my heart. When it comes to young eunuchs, there are many in the East Palace. Li Chengqian chose the ones in his palace. Isn't it for no reason?
Thinking about it again, by the way, Zhang Qiuhua has thin skin, tender flesh, and delicate facial features. If she puts on a maid uniform, she must be a good-looking palace maid. Could it be that he is attracted by his beauty? No way? Then who has he become?
Sure enough, news came from the East Palace the next day that Zhang Qiuhua was renamed Chengdi.
This name sounds a bit disgusting at first, and makes me feel queasy when I hear it again.
It is really strange for a slave to have such a name.
Who cares about him? No matter what his name is, it has nothing to do with him. Now he has become the son of the Prince of the East Palace, and he can't live or die.
Early in the morning, he was called to Li Shimin.
"Father, when you look at me like this, is there something on my face?"
Li Tai felt embarrassed by him and touched his face with his hand.
"Tai'er, do you want Wei Zheng to be your teacher?"
Li Tai was stunned and thought, did Changsun Wuyou pass the message to him?
"Yes, Father, I have been with him for a long time and have feelings for him. He still taught me half of the homework, so I..."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said before he could finish his words: "You don't need to explain. My son has a unique vision. Mr. Wei is indeed a rare talent. My father has given me permission. But I can't live without him. Today I will seal him."
To advise the officials, I am also your teacher."
When Li Tai heard this, he realized that Wei Zheng had really been reused. He was several ranks higher than when Li Jiancheng was the prince. With such a teacher, I am afraid that he will be of great use to him in the future.
"Thank you, Father."
Li Tai was very happy and kowtowed to thank him.
"Also, from now on, you and the prince will go to school together and share all the teachers."
Li Tai was shocked. Is Li Shimin confused if the prince is treated the same as him? This is inappropriate both emotionally and rationally. What kind of drama is he playing?
