The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 690

He was proud and arrogant.

That's something many people dream of.

Even Li Tai was envious and jealous of him.

That's right, that's why the people in the capital harbored ill intentions towards him this time!

Li Zhi was also aware of this.

"It's getting late, you should go back and get some rest!"

Xu Tian tidied up his files.

He said to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi nodded.

After responding, he left.

No sooner had Li Zhi stepped out than Xu Tian ordered Song Ren to follow behind.

"Remember this: you must ensure the Ninth Prince's absolute safety."

Several guards responded in unison with Song Ren, "Yes, sir."

Li Zhi was constantly bullied in the Imperial Academy, which was bad enough.

If something goes wrong at his residence, then...

Therefore, he absolutely could not be careless when it came to protecting Li Zhi.

Li Zhicai had just come out of Xu Tian's study and stepped into his own room.

Bang!

A loud bang came from behind him.

Li Zhi still hadn't figured out what was happening behind him.

He only saw a dark shadow fall down next to him in an instant.

He was startled.

If it weren't for the fact that he goes to the hunting grounds for actual training every year...

This time, he probably already fainted from fright.

Songren and his guards quickly dealt with all the men in black.

They walked up to Li Zhi.

They all bowed with their hands clasped in greeting.

"Ninth Prince, your subordinates are late in protecting you!"

Li Zhi waved his hand, yet he already possessed the demeanor of a great man.

"It seems Master had already made arrangements, otherwise..."

Even he himself couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

He wasn't even scratched.

He was even more puzzled as to why these people were so determined to kill him.

He hadn't offended anyone.

He was polite and courteous to everyone. Xu Tian walked over.

He looked at Li Zhi.

"You're not hurt!"

Li Zhi shook his head.

"Thank you for your concern, Master. If it weren't for your proper arrangements, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been as simple as just getting injured."

Xu Tian felt puzzled.

Why would this prince be assassinated when he was perfectly healthy?

If we're really talking about the struggle for the throne...

That's way too early.

After all, this ninth prince is still so young.

He doesn't even understand many things.

Honestly, if this involves the struggle for the throne, it's a bit too obvious.

Xu Tian went directly back to Li Zhi's room.

"I brought this book especially for you. You can read it when you have free time."

Xu Tian took out a book and handed it to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi saw the book cover.

It is labeled "[Scientific Model]"

"Master, this..."

He had no idea that his master would actually give him this book to read.

"The contents of this book are all the necessary processes for scientific research that I have marked on it, so you can learn as you read."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi was even more excited.

"Thank you, master!"

Xu Tian nodded.

"Oh, right, about this..."

Xu Tian asked in a more gentle manner.

"Regarding tonight's assassination attempt, do you know who did it?"

Li Zhi frowned slightly when he heard Xu Tian's question.

He nodded.

"I also know about the poisonous snake incident."

He felt there was no need to hide it from Xu Tian, ​​so he spoke.
