Da Tang Xiao Si Zi: I have a little pouch-like boy.

"You mean... my brother... also came from Xuanwu Gate..."

Li Lizhi stared at Li Qin in disbelief. Was this how a son inherited his father's business?

"Uh... no, I'm not very familiar with this part either. Anyway, it's about rebelling with Hou Junji."

"In the end, before the battle even started, your father had already taken care of it. Well, how should I put it? It's like a joke."

Li Qin recalled the passages he had read in the novel, unsure if they were true, but at least this part was recorded in history.

He hadn't studied it in detail; he wasn't very clear about how the rebellion started or how it was quelled.

Li Lizhi: "..."

"Why?! Why did you do this, brother?" Li Lizhi found it hard to associate Li Chengqian with rebellion, given his gentle and refined appearance.

Li Chengqian was definitely a good and qualified older brother to his younger siblings.

Moreover, as the crown prince, he has no reason to have breakfast at all, which is unreasonable!

Li Qin frowned and gave Li Lizhi a reproachful look. Why are you shouting so loudly?

Can't you see there are two other babies sleeping?

Quickly, they took one in each hand and gently patted the sleeping Sizi and Chengyang.

Let them continue to sleep peacefully.

After a while, he turned around and looked at Li Lizhi, who had been staring intently at him.

"In the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, your father issued an edict to allow Li Tai to move into the Wude Hall. Not long after, Li Chengqian rebelled."

"Of course, this was just the trigger. The main reason was that your father doted on Li Tai too much, to the point that he was treated the same as the Crown Prince, or even more so."

"This led Li Tai and some officials to have inappropriate thoughts and start plotting against you, brother."

At this point, Li Qin paused, then continued, "Isn't it ironic? Your grandfather's current situation is a direct result of his sons' discord. Look at your father, he really doesn't learn his lesson at all."

Li Lizhi pursed her lips tightly, her face turning somewhat pale.

"So... what was the final outcome for you, brother?"

"He was demoted to a commoner and exiled to Qianzhou, where he died within a year or two. Don't ask about the cause of death; I don't know."

"In the end...did my second brother succeed in seizing the throne?" Li Lizhi asked, forcing back her grief.

Li Qin gave her a strange look and asked, "Didn't we agree to talk about one thing every day?"

He shook his head and said, "That's a problem for tomorrow. Today, you only need to know your brother's fate."

Li Lizhi: "..."

He took a deep breath, stood up and bowed. "Thank you, young master, for informing Lizhi about my brother. After Sizi wakes up, I will not stay with you. Let her escort me back to the Tang Dynasty. Tomorrow's banquet needs to be prepared in advance."

"Also, I need to tell Mother about my brother."

Li Qin nodded thoughtfully: "That's right. Tell your mother to persuade your father not to favor Li Tai too much."

"Actually, if your mother hadn't died so young, she probably would have seen through these things and told your father to be careful, and then none of the following things would have happened."

Li Qin had no intention of interfering in the affairs of Li Shimin's family, after all, he was an outsider.

But Sizi is the youngest sister in the family, and they can't just leave her alone.

Then we should protect the eldest grandson, gradually reveal some things to her, and let her, as the head of the family, manage things. That would be the best approach.

Moreover, with Changsun around, even the old bastard Changsun Wuji can't rise to prominence.

That would be perfect.

She just had to say a few words, and her beautiful eldest grandson had to run errands.

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, the two fell silent, exchanging no words.

I don't know what we're talking about, we just sit here doing nothing.

Li Qin was alright; he would occasionally glance at Si Zi and Cheng Yang, revealing a gentle smile.

Li Lizhi was somewhat idle.

About an hour later, Chengyang was the first to wake up.

Li Qin checked the time; it was still early, so he decided to let Sizi sleep a little longer.

I washed Chengyang's face to wake her up completely, and told her to play with building blocks or chat with Li Lizhi.

Around 2:30, Li Qin finally hugged Sizi and said with a mischievous smile:

"Mingda, get up and let's go out for something delicious!"

"Mmm~ So cute~" she murmured, and then the little princess raised her little hand and started rubbing her eyes.

Sure enough, as long as you have the correct power-on password, waking up the little girl is just a matter of a word.

"Little Nangjun, what's up?"

A little more awake, Sizi nestled in Li Qin's arms and spoke softly and weakly, her voice sweet and endearing.

"Well, that depends on how well Mingda behaves. If he does, we'll go out and buy him ice cream."

Before she even ate her ice cream for the day, Li Qin took out something that originally belonged to the little princess and made a promise.

"I'm so cute~ I'm the best~"

Si Zi immediately assured him.

"Okay, sit for a while, wake up, then wash your face. Once you're awake, you can take your sister back to the Tang Dynasty first, and then we'll go out."

"Hey~ Sister, why are you going to get fat? Isn't it fun here with Little Panda?"

Upon hearing that Li Lizhi was going back to the Tang Dynasty, Sizi looked at her elder sister with a puzzled expression.

Li Lizhi smiled gently, "Sister, you need to go back and prepare for tomorrow's banquet. Tomorrow, Mother will invite the young master to dine at the Lizheng Hall."

"Huh? Little Nangjun, are you going to see my mother?" Sizi looked at Li Qin curiously.

"Yes, since your mother invited me, of course I'll go. It'll also be a good opportunity to see where Mingda lives."

"Hehe~ Okay~ I'm going with Xiao Nang-jun tomorrow too~" Si Zi clapped her hands happily, and suddenly became much more energetic.

This was Li Qin's first official visit to her home, and as the young hostess, she was naturally happy.

"Alright~ Tomorrow, Princess Jinyang and Princess Chengyang will take me to the appointment."

"Hehe, okay~"

“Come on, let’s go wash our faces first, then you can take your sister home first.”

Seeing that the little princess was fully awake, Li Qin put Si Zi down and led her to the washroom.

After washing her face, Si Zi escorted Li Lizhi back home, and then immediately returned.

The group of one adult and two children then went out.

After Li Lizhi returned to the Tang Dynasty, she lifted her skirt and ran towards the Lizheng Hall.

Upon learning of Li Chengqian's rebellion, she dared not delay for a moment and had to inform Changsun immediately.

When she arrived at the Lizheng Hall, she tried to dismiss all the palace servants as soon as she entered.

But when he saw that Li Chengqian and Li Tai were both there, he immediately swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Girl? Why are you back at this hour?" Changsun looked at Li Lizhi with a surprised expression when he saw her running over.

"Well, I have some things to discuss with my mother, so I came back early," Li Lizhi said vaguely.

"Lizhi went out of the palace? Look at her, all sweaty. Doesn't she know to avoid the sun?" Li Chengqian smiled and got up to walk towards Amei when he saw her.

At the same time, he said to the palace maid next to him, "What are you standing there for? Go and get a basin of cool water to wipe the princess's sweat and cool her off."
