The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 743

In the blink of an eye, he had been beaten into a pig's head.

After they finished beating him, they ripped the words out of his mouth.

After they left, Li Yu shouted loudly in the street, "Help!"

After someone learned his identity, he was sent to the Prince's Palace.

He was eventually sent to the Imperial Hospital for treatment, which caused quite a stir among the hospital staff.

"That was way too brutal! Who on earth is this person? How dare they do such a thing?"

"This is Prince Yu! How could they beat him up like this without knowing his identity?"

Several imperial physicians were discussing it there.

Li Yu was badly beaten; it looked like he was beyond medical help.

None of the imperial physicians knew what had happened.

They didn't know who the prince had offended, so they could only be beaten into this state.

What's there to be afraid of? There are people who dare to do that.

However, those who were dissatisfied with the prince were actually quite pleased.

Whenever the imperial physician touched Li Yu's body, he would let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

Unable to cooperate with the imperial physicians' treatment, his injury could only be left to linger.

A few days later, Xu Tian received news that Li Er had suddenly fallen ill.

Is this news true?

The one who delivered this message to him was none other than the Grand Tutor.

At this moment, his Grand Tutor was sitting in his study.

The Grand Tutor shook his head. "I don't know anything about this either! I only heard it from the imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital."

"And it was said in front of several important officials."

Xu Tian was unaware of this matter because he had been busy with a murder case outside the city.

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian frowned.

"I saw His Majesty perfectly well just now, how could he suddenly...?"

He believed there was something fishy about this.

Even the Grand Tutor couldn't say for sure.

In order to find out the truth, Li Tai went to the palace, using the pretext of visiting Li Er to find out if Li Er was really sick.

Upon learning of Li Er's serious illness, Li Tai harbored rebellious intentions.

After returning to his residence, he began to discuss the matter with others.

He then summoned his trusted confidants.

"If His Majesty is truly seriously ill, then he will surely issue an edict to bestow titles."

Nowadays, they don't even have a crown prince.

His Majesty has kept the position of Crown Prince vacant, and no one knows what his true intentions are.

Perhaps they wanted these brothers to kill each other.

Li Tai couldn't guess the Emperor's intentions either, but if his father really did die from his illness this time...

Then his chances would be the greatest.

Afterwards, he went directly to the residence of General Cheng Gengnian.

Cheng Gengnian already knew that the Emperor was seriously ill.

He was also very clear that if the emperor were to die, the only one who could ascend the throne would be Li Tai.

Whether it's ability, talent, or methods.

He would definitely be the first to be affected.

Li Tai entered the general's mansion carrying many treasures.

They used real money to entice the other party to cooperate with them.

Cheng Gengnian was an arrogant man. Although he understood the situation, he was loyal to only one person in his life.

That's the current emperor over there.

No matter who it is, they are not worth mentioning in his eyes.

He rejected Li Tai's request outright.

Li Tai gave a cold laugh.
