Chapter 739 Concubine Wei
Chapter 739 Concubine Wei
Chapter 739 Concubine Wei
Li Tai felt that Li Zhi was the most threatening to him at that time, and Li Zhi had a good relationship with Li Yuanchang before, so Li Tai threatened Li Zhi with this incident, implying that he should not compete with him for the throne.
But Li Zhi turned around and told Li Shimin about this. Li Shimin was furious when he learned about it. Li Tai dared to threaten Li Zhi before he was dead, so how can he let Li Zhi go when he dies and Li Tai succeeds to the throne?
This also made Li Shimin completely dispel the idea of Li Tai as the reserve.
In order to make Li Tai completely stop thinking about the throne, Li Shimintang deposed Li Tai from the throne.
Li Shimin said sadly in the imperial edict: "Li Tai, the king of Wei, is my very beloved son. I really love this son. He was very smart when he was young, and he was very fond of literature. My love for him is That's so unusual...but I can't let future generations think that the throne can be obtained through planning, so I demoted Wei Wang Li Tai to Donglai County King."
Li Zhi was able to inherit the throne, although Li Chengqian and Li Tai fought for reasons, but it would be a big mistake to say that the pie fell on his head.
The most ruthless imperial family.
The meaning expressed in Bai Juyi's poem is that the royal family is the most ruthless.
But if this poem is taken out alone, it can also be understood that the emperor's family cannot have too much family affection.
Ordinary people can give more when their children are separated, but emperors can't.
There is only one throne, if you give too much to the other sons, it will only make them think what they shouldn't have.
This is what Empress Changsun was worried about.
"Is the father satisfied with my son's answer?" Li Zhi sat in Li Shimin's arms, looked up at Li Shimin and asked.
"Haha." Li Shimin laughed, looked at Empress Changsun and said, "Guanyin maidservant, look at the pheasant slave, you know how old you are to ask me for a reward."
Empress Changsun smiled unnaturally. She didn't want Li Zhi to be too smart, but instead hoped that Li Zhi would be mediocre.
As a prince, Li Zhi already has no worries about food and clothing. She only hopes that Li Zhi can be an idle prince and live a safe life.
But she couldn't tell Li Shimin about these things, she could only hide them in her heart.
Li Shimin didn't notice Empress Changsun's expression, pinched Li Zhi's small face, and said with a smile, "I don't know what reward the pheasant slave wants?"
"The corn sent by the emperor before was very delicious, but it was too little. I want to ask the emperor to reward my son with some corn." Li Zhi said.
"Corn?" Li Shimin's expression was a little unnatural.
Those corns were still obtained from Lin Xuan, and if they wanted to get them now, they had to ask someone to break them.
He scolded Lin Xuan with his staff for breaking the corn. If Lin Xuan knew about it, what would be the majesty of the emperor if he asked someone to break the corn?
"Pheasant slave, do you know how many people in the world still can't get enough to eat? The yield of corn is high, and if it is popularized, the people in the world won't go hungry, so it should be kept as seeds, and they can't be eaten, understand?" Li Shimin Said.
"Oh." Li Zhi replied with some disappointment.
Although Li Zhi was smart, he was still young after all, so he didn't know that it was the people who were suffering. He only knew that Li Shimin had promised him, but he failed to do so.
Li Shimin felt quite ashamed when he saw Li Zhi's expression, he could only blame him for being too forthright in his promise just now.
"Cough cough." Li Shimin coughed twice, concealing the embarrassment in his heart, and said, "I remember that there are still some things that I haven't finished, so I will go to work first, and I won't come here at night."
"Chen and concubine respectfully send your majesty."
"My son respectfully sends the father to the emperor."
Li Shimin left the Lizheng Palace under the respectful escort of Empress Changsun and Li Zhi.
After leaving the palace, Li Shimin thought about it, and simply went to Jiyue Hall where Concubine Wei lived.
……
Jiyue Hall
Concubine Wei Gui is asking Li Shen about his homework.
Li Shen was born in the second year of Zhenguan, the same age as Li Zhi, and was named King Shen in the fifth year of Zhenguan.
Normally, a concubine's child cannot be brought by herself.
After giving birth to the prince, many concubines who were pregnant with the prince were just looked at carelessly. Even the midwives would not let the concubine see their children, so they were taken away and handed over to the nanny to feed them. After the prince grew up and became sensible Only when mother and child meet, there is no shortage of most of the princes in film and television dramas who have a very good relationship with their nanny, such as the last emperor Pu Yi, who did not forget to bring his nanny with him after moving out of the Forbidden City.
The purpose of doing this is because after the concubine gave birth to the prince, due to maternal reasons, the concubine could not serve the emperor with all her heart.
More importantly, the emperor was worried that the concubine would make his prince "bad", because no concubine would want his son to be the emperor. There is a situation where the current concubine is separated from her own emperor.
Li Shimin has no strict requirements on this point, so the prince is taken care of by his biological mother.
Concubine Wei nodded in satisfaction after listening to Li Shen recite a section of the Analects that she was studying today, and said, "Shen'er, the most important thing in learning is perseverance, you can't slack off, understand?"
Concubine Wei came from Chang'an Webster, and Wei and Du's family were the largest families in Chang'an, so it can be said that they were born in a famous family.
In fact, when Concubine Wei Gui married Li Shimin, she had already married someone once.
Her first husband was Li Min, the son of Li Zixiong, the general of the Sui Dynasty and the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, who was born in the Li family of Bohai. Concubine Wei gave birth to a daughter for him.
Later, Li Zixiong followed Yang Xuangan to rebel against him. After the defeat, Li Zixiong was killed.Concubine Wei Gui, as the family member of the criminal official, was implicated.
After Li Yuan ascended the throne, he declared amnesty to the whole world. Concubine Wei Gui was pardoned and returned to her illustrious natal family.
After Li Shimin conquered Luoyang, in order to attack Guanzhong, make friends with famous families, and reassure the Guanzhong clan, he married Concubine Wei, as well as Concubine Wei's cousin, former Wang Shichong's daughter-in-law Wei Nizi.
After Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, his cousin was the imperial concubine, and the cousin was Zhao Rong.
Concubine Wei was named a noble concubine not only because Li Shimin wanted to win over the Wei family.
Concubine Wei Guifei is beautiful in appearance, graceful in appearance, graceful in advance and retreat, and of good character and appearance; especially she writes good articles.
Even though Concubine Wei is 'remarried', Li Shimin still loves her very much.
Concubine Wei attaches great importance to Li Shen's study, not only because her Wei family is a scholarly family, but also because she wants Li Shen to be favored by Li Shimin, so that when the fief is changed in the future, a richer fief can be granted.
As for the throne, Concubine Wei Gui never thought about it.
Li Shen is Li Shimin's tenth son, even if it's his turn, it's not his turn.
In addition, her birth is determined, and Li Shen cannot become the prince.
Although no one dared to discuss her remarriage, if Li Shen wanted to fight for the throne, this would become Li Shen's stain.
Moreover, Empress Changsun's status is stable, and Changsun Wuji is very trusted by Li Shimin, so Li Shen has no chance at all.
It was precisely because she could see clearly that she didn't think about it at all.
"My son understands." Li Shen said.
"Okay, let's go play." Wei Guifei smiled.
"Thank you mother-in-law."
Li Shen just wanted to go out after performing the ceremony, when a court lady hurried in and said, "I would like to inform you, your majesty's internal officials have come to inform you that your majesty is coming to Jiyue Palace."
