Chapter 14 Wei Zheng: The prince is in a good mood!
Of course, Li Xiang didn't know that Aong had already arranged everything for him. He slipped out of Mingde Hall and planned to return to Lizheng Hall.
Now that you have decided to improve your favorability, you can't just focus on Li Shimin, you also have to consider the people around him.
Princess Jinyang was a good target, not to mention that this little aunt usually took good care of him.
The history books do not record the birth and death dates of Princess Jinyang Li Mingda, but according to speculation, it was at least before Li Chengqian was deposed as the crown prince.
Time is running out... Li Xiang feels under tremendous pressure.
Of course, there was some selfish motive in wanting to keep Princess Jinyang, but the main reason was because of the care given to her by her aunt.
I just don’t know what disease caused Li Mingda to die suddenly.
This is also the reason why Li Xiang went to Lizheng Hall more often. Only by observing closely could he determine what disease the other person had.
I was thinking about it in my mind and didn't pay attention on the road. As a result, I suddenly felt my body lighten and my feet left the ground.
He stretched his legs like Jerry who was being lifted up, and then he was surprised to find that he was actually being lifted up.
"Prince, be careful."
Li Xiang looked down and found that it was his step-father's guard Hegan Chengji.
Behind Hegan Chengji, the carriage still went towards the East Palace and did not stop for him.
He turned his gaze to Hegan Chengji, with some complexity in his eyes.
This man... is quite famous. When Li Chengqian's rebellion was exposed later, it was he who wrote the letter to report it.
Of course, the biggest problem did not lie with Hegan Chengji. If historical records are correct, this man still had a conscience. At least he would have been moved by Yu Zhining's poor family background and did not execute Li Chengqian's order to assassinate his teacher.
Li Xiang didn't have a good impression of this person, but he didn't hate him either, so he could still give him the benefit of the doubt for the sake of face.
But Hegan Chengji felt a little embarrassed.
Picking up the emperor's eldest grandson was just a matter of emergency, and when he saw that the danger was gone, Hegan Chengji put him down.
"It's an emergency, please forgive me, Prince."
"No problem, thank you for the Hegan guard."
Li Xiang did not blame him, he was not an unreasonable person. If Hegan Chengji had not lifted him up like that, he would have crashed into the carriage.
In addition, Hegan Chengji was a Xianbei with a double surname of Hegan, so there is no problem in calling him that.
"What's in the car...?" he asked again.
"My Lord, it is Grand Tutor Wei in the carriage, and he is here to meet the Crown Prince." Hegan Chengji said immediately.
When Li Xiang heard the name of the person in the car, he felt his scalp tingling.
Damn, Wei is such a big troll?
It’s broken, it’s broken!
No, I have to go back quickly...
Li Xiang felt his scalp tingling when he thought of Wei Zheng's feat which was somewhat famous in history books.
Even Li Shimin could be broken by his scolding, let alone his petty-minded father?
The assassination of Zhang Xuansu was a trivial matter, and Li Shimin could at least turn a blind eye to it. But if Wei Zheng had assassinated him, then the prince would have had no chance of success.
What's more, no one knows what his father is doing in the palace now. What if he wants to keep a new male concubine in the palace? Wouldn't it be so embarrassing if Wei Zheng saw them?
He hurriedly moved his short legs, not even bothering to go to Lizheng Hall to get close to Li Mingda, and ran in the direction of the carriage.
Hegan Chengji opened his mouth, wanting to stop Li Xiang, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Forget it. Anyway, the prince has been quite popular with the crown prince recently, so there is nothing wrong with him going.
But... Hegan Chengji couldn't help but think in his heart, the eldest grandson has been so outstanding recently, I wonder what the Crown Princess will think. It should be noted that the eldest grandson is not a legitimate son, and Li Chengqian's eldest legitimate son is Li Jue, who was born to the Crown Princess.
But he didn't know that, unlike the female version, the situation in the Tang Dynasty was a little special...
Being the eldest son does not mean that he can inherit the throne.
Including the last emperor Li Yu, among the twenty emperors of the Tang Dynasty, there were only three eldest sons who could become emperors.
What is the Xuanwu Gate inheritance method? (Hands on hips).
Although the reasons for the emperors' ascension to the throne varied from those of Li Shimin, most of them were the result of coups d'état.
What's more, the Crown Princess was not favored, and Li Chengqian was only thinking about satisfying his little boy.
Hegan Chengji was lost in his thoughts, while Li Xiang was running ahead as fast as he could, fearing that he would not be able to catch up with Wei Zheng.
By the time Li Xiang ran to Mingde Hall, Wei Zheng had already got off the carriage, and Li Xiang happened to be following behind Wei Zheng.
As the prince's tutor, Wei Zheng certainly knew Li Xiang. He noticed Li Xiang's figure, and seeing him panting, he couldn't help but smile softly, turned around and nodded slightly at him: "Prince."
"Meet Grand Master Wei!"
As a progressive young man who respects the old and loves the young in the new era, Li Xiang bowed respectfully and then asked curiously, "Grand Master, are you here to see my father?"
"Of course," Wei Zheng glanced at Li Xiang meaningfully, "If the prince left anything in the palace, he can go with me."
Ouch? Lao Wei, it's OK...
When you feel sleepy, use the pillow. Li Xiang was originally thinking of an excuse to follow Wei Zheng into the Mingde Hall, but Wei Zheng handed him the steps first.
You know what, Li Xiang suddenly started to like this little old man a little.
But considering the identity of the other party, he had to be extremely careful.
Please be careful, Grand Master, don't make my already frantic father even worse...
"Master, please."
Li Xiang said respectfully that respecting teachers, honoring the elderly and loving the young have always been his good qualities.
What's more, Wei Zheng, as the Prince's Grand Tutor, was just like the "Four Elders" of Crown Prince Liu Ying of Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty. He was the pillar that supported the Crown Prince.
It can be said that as long as Wei Zheng is alive, no one can shake the prince's position.
But Li Xiang was also really worried. What if his foolish father made a mistake and destroyed the Great Wall?
He followed Wei Zheng and walked into the Mingde Hall step by step.
When Li Xiang followed Wei Zheng into the hall, Li Chengqian was playing flying cards with several eunuchs.
Judging from Li Chengqian's appearance, he was having a lot of fun. He was shaking the dice cup in his hand like a wine jug in the bartender's hand, almost leaving an afterimage.
It’s bad…it’s bad…Li Xiang’s expression was as hopeless as Wang Dachui’s.
Li Xiang felt that being caught playing cards by Wei Zheng was second only to being caught playing with his mobile phone by his head teacher.
What's more, looking at the indulgent look of the cheap dad...
Hope is not like a human king!
He had already imagined how Wei Zheng would go all out next, and how his father would lose face, which would lead to a violent quarrel.
I'm too hard!
When Li Xiang had already imagined that Li Shimin would be furious because of the "assassination of Wei Zheng", he didn't expect Wei Zheng to speak first.
"The prince is in a good mood!"
