Chapter 21
Chapter 21
This time, Li Shimin only entrusted two sons, of which Li Chengqian is the prince, so no one has any objections. As the eldest son of a saint, if he is not the prince, who can be the prince?It's just that the other one is more intriguing.
Many people thought that this time Li Shimin would probably crown all his sons kings, but they didn't expect that Li Ke was the only one in the end.Concubine Yang Shu is a little restless, where is her Liu Lang?Now Li Shimin has seven sons in total, although only Li Ke was named, but that was because before that, Li Tai, who was born in the same year as Li Ke, was already the king of Wei, and he was granted the title of Shangzhu Kingdom.
Well, this is Li Yin, the son of a concubine, which cannot be compared, but Li You, who is also a concubine and was born only two years earlier than Li Yin, is already the king of Yiyang County. , but Li Yin is already four years old.
Concubine Yang Shu knew in her heart that as the prince Li Yin was at least a county king, but when others had it but her own son didn't, she would feel unbalanced.
At this time, Li Ke, who was named King of Han, was wondering, and always felt that there was something wrong. If he remembered correctly, Li You should be named King of Chu this time. Why is there nothing about him this time?
But soon Li Ke didn't have the energy to care about what happened to Li You, because he found that Concubine Yang Shu's actions recently were very... intriguing.Because he was injured, Li Shimin would come to see him when he was not busy. After all, Li Shimin has few sons now, and the older ones are Li Chengqian, Li Ke and Li Tai. Both Wen Xiwu and Wen Xiwu saw signs of it.
When Li Shimin came over, Concubine Yang Shu would often push Li Yin to the front, and when talking to Li Shimin, she would never leave Li Yin in three words.Li Ke looked at Concubine Yang Shu calmly, as if he didn't know anything.
He guessed what Concubine Yang Shu meant in his heart, wasn't it because she was born unreliable?To be honest, in fact, the real one is not necessarily reliable these days, but as long as Concubine Yang Shu has no intention of exposing him, then do whatever you like. If Concubine Yang Shu transfers her hopes to Li Yin, Li Ke is even more so.
Of course, Concubine Yang Shu didn't dare to be too obvious, she still cared about Li Ke on the surface, Li Ke's arm also slowly recovered, and it happened to be winter when he removed the splint.
Li Ke has been an out-of-school child for more than three months. Although he reads every day, his calligraphy and riding and shooting have been pulled down. After his arm is healed, I don’t know if it is his illusion. He always feels that these two arms are not his. Same, especially not easy to use.
After Li Chengqian knew it, he said with a smile: "Sanlang has only recovered from his injury, so don't be too impatient about homework. If you don't understand, feel free to ask me."
In Li Ke's eyes, even if Li Chengqian said two words, he would break them apart and think about it. Li Chengqian's words seemed to be comforting Li Ke, but Li Ke always felt that he was expressing his status .
But at this time Li Tai said: "Exactly, the third brother who bows, horses, rides and shoots can ask the prince for advice, and the foolish brother has somewhat dabbled in calligraphy and painting, so he can discuss it with the third brother."
Li Ke glanced at Li Tai and said with a smile, "Thanks to the prince and fourth brother."
This brotherhood is actually a different kind of competition for favor. Li Chengqian glanced at Li Tai with a half-smile, and then at Li Ke, always feeling strange in his heart.
He originally thought that the third and fourth brothers would join forces to deal with him, but he didn't expect that these two people had no intention of forming an alliance at all. Of course, the fourth brother is a bit interesting, but Sanlang... always feels that there is something different.
Of course it is different, no matter how stupid Li Ke is, he would never form an alliance with Li Tai, not to mention that he is not interested in the throne for the time being, even if he is interested, he would rather train his younger brother than join forces with Li Tai, after all, Li Tai is not counted Too smart, not to mention that Li Tai is the son of the eldest son, and when they win the throne, it will not matter to Li Ke.
The reason why Li Ke is temporarily not interested is because if Li Chengqian is still chasing after him step by step, he will really attack Li Chengqian. He has never been kneaded by others and dare not resist. people.
After Li Ke recovered his arm, he did not show that he wanted to make up his homework. To be honest, what he needs to work on now is nothing more than riding and shooting. There is no problem with literature. The reason why he studied hard every day before Give Li Shimin the impression that he is working hard.
Now that this impression has been formed, it won't matter if he relaxes at all.At this time, Li Ke began to run to Li Yuan diligently.
Although Li Yuan is dissatisfied with his son, he still loves his grandson very much. After all, they are relatives in the next generation, and among them, Li Ke is probably the most. After all, Li Ke runs frequently and talks sweetly.
"Sanlang comes here every day, so don't miss your homework." Li Yuan looked at Li Ke, although there was a smile on his face, but that smile was too weak, and it was not the same as before.
Li Ke puffed up his chest and said: "Although I can't practice calligraphy, Sanlang reads seriously every day. I don't believe that Ah Weng can take the exam on me."
Li Yuan really picked up some elementary textbooks to test Li Ke, but he never expected that Li Ke would start studying history.
"Did Concubine Yang Shu teach you?" Li Yuan was a little surprised. After all, Li Ke was still young, and he might not understand the meaning even after studying history.
"No, I read it myself!" Li Ke smiled a little smugly: "Although I don't understand some parts, Dad said that I can remember it is already very good."
When Li Yuan heard Li Ke mention Li Shimin, the smile on his face almost disappeared.Li Ke looked at Li Yuan and hesitated for a moment before asking: "Ah Weng is not happy today, did someone make you angry?"
Li Yuan looked at Li Ke and sighed, patted his head and said, "You are still young, you don't understand."
Li Ke was a little puzzled. The relationship between Li Yuan and Li Shimin had eased a lot under his unremitting efforts to pretend to be stupid and cute. Why does it seem that there is something wrong now?
Yes, in the Tai Chi Palace, no one except Li Shimin would dare to block Li Yuan.Li Ke returned to Ningyun Pavilion with doubts. He didn't ask Concubine Yang Shu, and she might not know if she did, and even if she knew, she might not tell him.
The relationship between him and Concubine Yang Shu is probably just a little superficial effort left, and Li Ke didn't feel that Concubine Yang Shu was thinking wrong. If someone has a son and doesn't support you, he must support you?Isn't Xiao's fancy to him because he is Yang Guang's son?
Concubine Yang Shu couldn't ask, so Li Ke went directly to ask Li Chengqian. Yes, even though the two of them clearly filled in each other's name in the enemy column, they were still intimate on the surface.
After listening to Li Ke's narration, Li Chengqian said with a slight sneer: "You may not know that you have been recovering from your injuries recently. My father issued an edict to demote the prince of the clan to the king of the county, and the king of the county to the county prince."
Li Ke suddenly realized that there was indeed such a thing in history. However, Li Shimin's move was ruthless enough. How many people were slapped at once? Yes, how much national tax was saved at once.
It's just that Li Shimin took the clan's sword, so there was not much backlash from the court, but Li Ke decided not to compete with Li Chengqian recently, because Li Shimin would soon start to feel frustrated.
None of the Li clan is a steamed stuffed bun. If Li Shimin condescends to his title, he will dare to rebel!In addition, the Turks are ready to move again in winter... Li Ke decided to go to Maodong.
After the new year is the first year of Zhenguan, the prosperous age of Zhenguan begins. However, this beginning is not very good. His younger brother Li Shou also rebelled, and then Li Youliang, the king of Changle, also had the intention of rebelling.
After finally pushing these two people down, there was a severe drought in Shandong in summer, and when Wang Junkuo was in a state of desperation, he also turned his back on him, followed by Li Xiaochang, the governor of Lizhou.
It can be said that the first year of Zhenguan was actually a year of rebellion. Everyone seemed to have the same plan to pull Li Shimin down when he was not firmly seated on the throne. Unfortunately, no one succeeded.
What caught people off guard was that someone in Qingzhou played Li Jiancheng's banner.It's just that Li Ke never expected that this matter would involve himself. Those people nonsense said that Li Shimin brought Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's wives into the harem, that is, the Yang family, and then evolved to the point where Li Ke should be Li Jiancheng's son.
Li Ke: Damn mentally retarded!
