The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 749

Although Xu Tian seemed to be of no use, the Emperor trusted him the most at this critical juncture of his death, which is why he gained Li Tai's trust.

He heard Xu Tian say that the Emperor would summon him to the palace.

Li Tai instantly came up with a plan.

"Your Highness, why not bring me to the palace with you tomorrow?"

Li Tai believed that once he entered the palace and met the emperor, he would have absolute confidence.

Xu Tian readily agreed.

Why not agree? This was originally his and Li Er's plan.

As long as Li Tai walks into their trap, they can ensure that this matter will be foolproof.

Li Tai was so stupid that he naturally couldn't see any clues.

The next day.

Because Li Er was already quite ill, even the morning court session had been cancelled.

This suggests that the ministers were already filled with anxiety.

Each of them had found their own supporter, and during this time, the Grand Tutor also came to see Xu Tian.

On the surface and in their hearts, they were mostly concerned about the Emperor.

Writers like them naturally don't need to take sides with anyone.

Because they are useless!

In addition, the Grand Tutor was very arrogant, and no one could persuade him.

Naturally, none of the princes dared to provoke him.

Xu Tian got ready early in the morning and got up to enter the palace.

A message came from outside: "Your Highness, the Third Prince's palanquin is already waiting outside."

Xu Tian simply nodded slightly, then walked out.

All of this was part of his plan, and Li Tai had been waiting impatiently for it.

Even when it came to entering the palace, she was much more eager than him.

He even brought his own sedan chair to sit with him.

Xu Tian brought Li Tai to Li Er. Li Er looked like a terminally ill patient, his face was completely bloodless, and even his lips had turned white.

He was barely breathing, and didn't even have the strength to speak.

"Xu Tian, ​​you've arrived."

He said it weakly.

Xu Tian then strode forward to pay his respects.

Then Li Tai also came up and gave a perfunctory bow.

Li Er looks presentable, but he gives off a sickly vibe.

Seeing his father in this state, Li Tai probably wouldn't be able to lift his sword anymore.

Let alone asking him to draw a sword, I doubt he could even speak loudly.

He was already overjoyed.

His initial concern turned into indifference.

"Father, I have heard that you are dying?"

He said this bluntly.

If these were put together, it would be a grave offense.

They could be dragged out, imprisoned, or even killed.

Li Ershou stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Tai for a long time, but he didn't say a word.

He looked like he had been seriously injured.

"Get out of here." After talking for a long time, he finally managed to utter this sentence.

Li Tai snorted coldly.

"Father, you have no ability left. Do you still want to cling to this position?"

"If you abdicate in favor of your son now, your son can guarantee that you will sit on the throne as the retired emperor and live out your days in peace."

His intention was straightforward: to have Li Er pass the throne to him.

Li Er gave a soft hum.

"It is impossible for me to pass the throne to you."

Li Er immediately rejected Li Tai's request.

This displeased Li Tai, who immediately declared, "If you're a rich woman and you don't agree to my proposal, don't blame me for being impolite."
