"Yes!"
Li Tai didn't dare to say more, but there was a trace of dare not deep in his eyes.
After that, the atmosphere was a little cold, and there was no harmony before.
After the banquet was over, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun returned to the Lizheng Hall with ugly expressions on their faces.
"Is Your Majesty still angry about Qingque?" Queen Changsun asked.
"Qingque is thinking more and more now." Li Shimin said pointedly.
Empress Changsun sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, my concubine will not change his political position, even if he oversteps this time, his concubine will have to say a few words."
"Qingque will not become a feudal clan if he is an adult. It is not in accordance with etiquette. I beg Your Majesty to let Qingquey become a feudal clan." Empress Changsun's tone was filled with a hint of pleading.
Empress Changsun can imagine what might happen in the future if she continues.
As a mother, she naturally hoped that even if her children could not be brothers and sisters, they would not kill each other.
But as a queen, she shouldn't interfere in these matters.
This made her very conflicted.
"Didn't I say that Qing Que will go to the feudal clan in half a year, and there are still more than two months left." Li Shimin said.
Li Shimin felt that Li Tai wanted to join the army today because he wanted to stay in Chang'an through this method.
The grassland war cannot be ended in a short period of time. Once it comes and goes, the time for Li Tai to become a vassal will be delayed.
A trace of worry flashed in the eyes of Empress Changsun. She had known Li Shimin very well as a husband and wife for so many years, and she could feel that things were not as simple as Li Shimin said.
But Li Shimin has said that now, and she can't continue to say anything.
……
When Han Wen saw Li Tai coming back with a gloomy face, he knew that Li Tai hadn't succeeded, but he still asked, "Your Highness, did your Majesty agree?"
"Father refused without even thinking about it." Li Tai said with an ugly face.
"Your Highness, don't worry too much. Your Majesty's promise may not be great. I told His Highness before I went down." Han Wen said.
"The problem is that there are still more than two months before this king will go to the fiefdom. If you still can't think of a way, it will be difficult to come back after I go to the fiefdom." Li Tai said.
Once the prince is in the feudal domain, let alone return to Chang'an without the emperor's consent, he can't even leave the fiefdom.
"It's a bad idea to ask His Highness to ask for a fight. I have another good strategy." Han Wen laughed.
"Best policy?"
Li Tai said with some displeasure: "Why didn't you say it before?"
"Your Highness's forgiveness, it's not that I didn't say it before, but that the best strategy is a little dangerous, and the worst strategy, although the possibility is very small, is not dangerous." Han Wen explained.
Li Tai's face softened a little, and he said, "Let's listen."
"Assassination!" Han Wen said in a low voice.
"Assassination?" Li Tai was taken aback, and said, "You mean to assassinate the prince?"
Han Wen shook his head and said, "The crown prince seldom leaves Chang'an. It is impossible to assassinate the crown prince in Chang'an without revealing the slightest trace."
"I mean to assassinate His Highness. Of course, the assassin was arranged by ourselves, but in order to be realistic, His Highness will definitely suffer a bit."
Li Tai looked at Han Wen with a gloomy face. The last time Han Wen told him to pretend to be sick, his life almost died.
This time, he said to let himself suffer a little bit. It is obvious that the so-called assassination cannot be just a show.
A sword has no eyes, what if one is careless, what if the fake show is really done?
"You say this is the best strategy? This king sees your idea as not even the worst strategy, it's simply a bad idea." Li Tai said in a bad tone.
"Your Highness calmed down because this plan was dangerous, so I didn't tell His Highness at first, but now His Majesty has rejected His Highness's invitation to fight, it can be seen that His Majesty is determined to let His Highness go to the feudal domain. The general strategy is useless. .” Han Wen said.
Seeing that Li Tai's face became a little ferocious because of his words, Han Wen's eyes flashed an imperceptible joy, and he said, "The reason why I say this is the best policy is because His Highness is assassinated. Put the blame on the prince."
"Your Majesty is very taboo about such things, and the crown prince is also the most suspicious. As long as we deal with it cleanly and find no evidence, His Highness the crown prince will not be cleared even if he falls into the Yellow River." Han Wen said sinisterly.
Han Wen did not intend to directly blame Li Chengqian, after all, the more you do, the more flaws you will have.
But if you do nothing, it is the most deadly.
It's no big secret that Li Tai and Li Chengqian are in the same situation. In addition, Li Shimin loves him very much. When Li Tai was assassinated, Li Chengqian was naturally the most suspicious.
Li Tai was a little moved when he heard the words, if this could make Li Shimin disappointed with Li Chengqian, he might be able to get the crown prince without doing anything.
"Then how can the king's safety be guaranteed?" Li Tai asked.
Knowing that Li Tai was moved, Han Wen said with a smile: "Your Highness is protected by personal soldiers. Even if it is a real assassination, His Highness will be fine, let alone a fake? But if you want to affect the crown prince, Your Highness still needs to be injured." will be better."
Li Tai was silent for a while, and said: "This king agreed, let's talk, what should I do?"
Han Wen smiled and said, "Didn't Your Majesty reject His Highness's invitation to fight? Your Highness is in a bad mood. He will go out to hunt in the city tomorrow. He wants to prove to His Majesty that His Highness is not useless. Presumably it will not arouse suspicion?"
Li Tai was taken aback, and said, "You mean it will be implemented tomorrow? Could it be too early?"
There are still more than two months before the date of his entry into the feudal clan. As long as he is not seriously injured, he will be healed in more than two months, so how can he stay in Chang'an?
"If something happened when His Highness was about to take over, wouldn't His Majesty suspect His Highness? Then how could he blame the Crown Prince?" Han Wen asked rhetorically.
If every time Li Tai had an accident when he was about to leave, anyone who wasn't a fool would know there was something wrong.
"Then what should I do if my father still asks this article to be a vassal?" Li Tai asked.
Han Wen said with a smile: "In Chang'an, some people dare to assassinate His Highness. If he goes to the fiefdom, will His Highness survive? For His Highness's life, how can His Majesty let His Highness go to the feudal domain before the real murderer is caught?"
Li Tai nodded and said, "Okay, I'm going to go hunting tomorrow, I hope you don't disappoint me, otherwise I will ask the family to replace me to assist me."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, nothing will happen." Han Wen assured.
Early the next morning, Li Tai asked people to prepare hunting things and go hunting.
Generally, hunting will be in autumn and winter, when the prey grows fat.
But when Li Tai spoke, the others naturally did not dare to object, and hurriedly prepared the things needed for hunting.
After Li Tai led the people to set off, Li Shimin got the news.
Li Shimin frowned slightly, and said: "Qingque has always liked literature and hated martial arts, and even winter hunting is just a formality, why did he suddenly go out of the city to hunt?"
"According to the Baiqi people, His Royal Highness King Wei said that he wanted to prove to His Majesty that even though he is fat, he can still hunt on horseback, and he is not useless." Li Mu said in a low voice.
