After leaving Tai Chi Palace, Li Tai was worried about whether he should tell Li Shimin about Changsun Wuyou's physical condition.
After all, they were a married couple. Once the eldest grandson Wuyou left, he would become a child without a mother. However, he did not want to see Li Shimin at this time.
There was a lot of discussion among the courtiers that he must keep a certain distance from Li Shimin, otherwise he would definitely get the impression that he was ambitious. If nothing else, Li Chengqian and Li Ke would have prejudices against him.
It is better to do less than to do more. Besides, it is also true that Changsun Wuyou is prejudiced against him.
When I returned to the house, I saw several unknown maids standing outside the door. I wondered who was so clever and knew that he was going to visit him from afar.
"Your Highness, King Wei, hurry up, the Crown Princess has been here for a long time."
A little maid said.
Fang Zhenzhu is here? She’s not shy about it either?
Li Tai felt happy and walked quickly into the house. As expected, he saw Fang Zhenzhu chatting with Zhou Ruhua.
"King Wei, I heard that you are going out again, so I came here to see you off."
Fang Zhenzhu said a blessing, pointed to a set of four study treasures on the table and said: "This set of calligraphy treasures was a gift from my father, just think of it as a gift from my sister-in-law."
Li Tai thanked him hurriedly, picked up the four treasures, looked at them again and again, and praised: "How can this be so embarrassing? The things Mr. Fang gave you are probably the dowry."
Fang Zhenzhu lightly covered her nose and said, "It's not a good thing either. Fourth brother, don't dislike it."
"How dare you? Li Tai is very grateful to the Crown Princess for coming to see me off."
On second thought, she was very well-informed, which must have made Li Chengqian happy.
"Sister-in-law, you have been married for a while. When will you let me have a nephew to call me uncle?"
Li Tai never opened the pot and raised the pot. He knew clearly that Li Chengqian and her had the name of husband and wife, but they had no real relationship with each other.
Fang Zhenzhen's eyes turned red and she said, "Why does King Wei need to be so anxious? You have many brothers, and you will have many nieces and nephews in the future, including me. Fourth brother, where did the picturesque girl come from?"
Li Tai knew that she was jealous and said, "She is the maid of General Yuchi's family and she gave it to me."
"Really? I think she looks similar to someone."
Li Tai asked in surprise: "Who? Who does he look like?"
"Wei Jiali."
Li Tai and Wei Jiali looked at each other and said with a smile: "Master Wei's daughter, does he have a daughter? Why didn't I know?"
"Of course you don't know that my father took me to his house before and met her."
When Wei Jiali heard this, she hurriedly defended herself: "How could it be? There are so many elephant-like people in this world. I would be extremely happy if I were Mr. Wei's daughter. The Crown Princess is really promoting a slave."
Fang Zhenzhu looked at the two of them doubtfully and said, "I only said they looked similar, but I didn't say it was true. Look at how nervous you are."
Li Tai smiled awkwardly and said: "This kind of joke is not allowed. If it reaches Mr. Wei's ears, it will cause a big stir. He is a man who is not afraid of anything."
Fang Zhenzhu said disdainfully: "You are wrong. He is still afraid of the emperor after all."
Nonsense, Wei Zheng is Li Shimin's minister, of course he is afraid of him.
"That's the shore of Tutu. Could it be a royal minister? This time Mr. Wei almost had the black gauze removed from his head, which is the best example. I believe that after this lesson, he will definitely learn to behave well in the future.
.
Wei Jiali looked ugly and left on the pretext of having other things to do.
Seeing that there was no one around, Li Tai asked her in a low voice: "What are you doing here? Aren't you afraid of people gossiping?"
Fang Zhenzhu said: "I'm here to report that Li Chengqian plans to send someone to kill you on your way to Xidu Mansion."
"Really? No way? He is my brother after all."
"It is precisely because you are his younger brother that he wants to get rid of you as a hidden danger."
After Fang Zhenzhu finished speaking, she said loudly: "Okay, the task is completed, I have to go."
Then he said loudly: "Hazy, picturesque, I'm going back to the palace."
Wei Jiali and Menglong were polite to her and sent her outside the house before returning.
Li Tai felt so unhappy that he didn't say anything when Fang Zhenzhu left.
What should come will always come. I didn't expect that Li Chengqian would lose his temper so quickly. Wasn't it Li Shimin who gave him special favor? Compared to his position as the prince, it was nothing.
Mengwu picked up the Four Treasures of the Study on the table and said: "How stingy. If you don't want to give me anything bad, just give me this? The emperor has rewarded them with so many good things, and he didn't say to give us some."
Li Tai asked her: "What did you give me? Tell me."
"I can't even name them. Anyway, they are all good things from foreign countries. You can get whatever you want. That's it. Some people always say that you are the emperor's favorite son."
It turned out that while Li Shimin showed love to him, he also spread warmth to Li Chengqian.
If this were placed in modern society, he would definitely be a super dad.
"King Wei, this inkstone is really good."
Zhou Ruhua held the inkstone in his hand and praised it.
"Then, what kind of family is the Fang family? With their scholarly family background, can the dowry given to their daughter by the father-in-law be bad? My sister-in-law is really thoughtful and knows that I am a person who likes calligraphy."
"Who says it's not the case? It's really unfair that the prince doesn't like such a good woman."
Mengwu said: "Ruhua, what do you know? The prince doesn't like her not because she is bad, but because..."
She stopped mid-sentence.
Zhou Ruhua asked curiously: "What do you mean? Why? Do you know that they don't like it? You are not in the East Palace."
He sighed vaguely: "I have never stayed in the East Palace, but don't you know that the prince is different from normal people?"
Mengwu is someone close to the emperor. Being able to say such things means that the emperor is aware of it.
"Stop talking nonsense, why is he different from normal people? How dare a slave speak so nonsense? Remember, you are now a member of the Wei Palace!"
He said vaguely but disapprovingly: "His Royal Highness, King Wei, seeing that you are like this, you probably know it. This is a secret in the palace, and it is nothing new. Ruhua, don't you know?"
Zhou Ruhua shook his head.
Could she not know about the misdeeds of Prince Li Chengqian? It's just that that person is too far away from her. She doesn't care whether he is good or bad, dead or alive. What she cares about is the person in front of her who can write about the worries of the world.
.
"Of course you don't know. Yuchi Jingde is a big boss, and his two wives can only wield swords and sticks but don't know a few Chinese characters. You can imagine it."
Mengwu believed that she was sent by the emperor, so she naturally spoke more rudely than other palace maids and eunuchs.
Zhou Ruhua originally wanted to say a few words, but gave up immediately after seeing Li Tai's eyes.
"What's wrong? You look unconvinced, don't you? Ruhua, your life is so good. You became King Wei's personal maid as soon as you came here. I don't know how many times I have begged the emperor to come here."
Zhou Ruhua asked her: "It's great to be by the emperor's side. Why do you have to work as an errand in Prince Wei's Mansion?"
Mengwu said: "Huh, what's so good over there? Does the Emperor still lack beautiful women? It's better than here. The mountains are high and the Emperor is far away. It's free and comfortable."
