[Rebirth] Anecdote of Li Tang

But Li Chengqian was put on the red carpet, looking at all kinds of objects, quite dumbfounded.He twisted his small body and crawled towards the bamboo slips closest to him.

After finally tossing the bamboo slips upside down, Li Chengqian took a look at the contents inside: "The peach blossoms are shining brightly." It turned out to be a volume of "Book of Songs", Li Chengqian glanced at it, and threw it away rather boringly.

The concubine looked at it from the side and said with a smile: "Why do I feel that Xiao Shizi seems to be able to understand the contents of the bamboo slips. Ordinary children would not open the bamboo slips to read."

Changsun frowned and said: "Prince Princess is joking, Cheng Qian is only one year old now, and he is not yet literate. How could he understand this?"

The words of the Crown Princess naturally reached Li Chengqian's ears.His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately became alert.

Indeed, as a child, he would naturally only catch what is what in the grasping ceremony. His behavior just now is obviously not like a child.

Li Chengqian looked left and right, and there was a bow on his left, a pen and an inkstone on his right, a lock of longevity, gold, silver and jade in front of him, and a scroll of bamboo slips in the farthest place from him.

Li Chengqian was puzzled. He knew that the bamboo slips meant to be smart, eager to learn, and with outstanding diction. Logically speaking, it was absolutely impossible for two bamboo slips to appear at the same time. Not only would it be meaningless, but it would also interfere with the child's attention.

And he has confirmed that the content of the first volume of bamboo slips is "Book of Songs", so the farthest bamboo slips are very likely to represent another meaning.

In the Zhou Catch Ceremony, in order to obtain a good omen, generally no ominous objects will be placed, so what is the bamboo slip?

Li Chengqian simply sat on the ground, but as soon as he sat down, he was crushed. Li Chengqian stretched out his small hand to touch his buttocks, looking at the object, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

It was a dull sackcloth tiger, looking at him stupidly.

Li Chengqian pursed his lips, raised his hand and threw the tiger far away, who cares about such a thing.

There was a chuckle from the crowd, and Li Yuan also smiled and said to Li Shimin, "Shimin, you have a character."

Li Chengqian sat on the ground dejectedly. He wanted to grab none of the blankets and objects. Instead of taking such boring things as the "Book of Songs" and horn bows, he might as well put all his eggs in one basket and take the bamboo slips with unknown contents. reward.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian went straight to the bamboo slips.

Seeing his movements, Li Shimin and Changsun's expressions were a little subtle for a while, and they all looked at Li Yuan who was sitting at the top in unison.

Li Yuan had already suppressed the smile on his face, and he stared at Li Chengqian's movements intently, until he confirmed that he was holding the bamboo slip firmly in his hand, then he let out a sigh of relief.

Just as Changsun was about to wave to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian didn't stop walking, and his small figure crawled up to Prince Li Jiancheng.

The prince was standing at the side in a dignified manner, but suddenly a little bean crawled over and grabbed the hem of his clothes tightly.

"Chengqian, what's the matter with you?" The prince quickly realized and asked with a pleasant face.

But he forgot that Li Chengqian was only one year old and couldn't even speak a few words, so how could he answer his questions.The little child just tugged at the crown and didn't speak.

After being surprised for a short time, Changsun also tried to step forward and pull Li Chengqian away, but Li Chengqian just held on to the mianfu tightly and would not let go.

Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd, and an old court official said tremblingly: "My eyes are dazzled, I can't see clearly, what exactly is the prince grabbing?"

One word awakened the dreamer, and everyone realized that the prince was clearly trying to catch Zhou just now.

But in the current situation... In the silent hall, no one dared to speak except the somewhat anxious veteran.

Everyone turned the corner, and what Li Chengqian grabbed, besides a bamboo slip with unknown content, was the crown prince's crown dress, the standard nine-prong crown system.

However, the current crown prince is obviously Li Jiancheng. Even if he wants to become a great treasure in the future, the crown prince should also be Li Chengzong. What's the matter with him, Li Chengqian?

The Crown Princess has already had a gloomy face. Officials belonging to the Crown Prince/Son/Party don't look very good-looking.

Li Shimin looked at his son with very complicated eyes. He is a man who has been bleeding from the head of a knife and has been a soldier for half his life. If he really believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, those souls who died under his knife would have come to him many times. How about a peaceful dream like now?

But this time, he was extremely hopeful that the result of Li Chengqian's arrest was that the gods foretold that one day he would really be able to ascend to the supreme position and pass the throne to his son.

Li Chengqian couldn't understand Li Shimin's ambition very well.Even if I didn't stage this play today, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji will be killed in the Xuanwu Gate in the future.But today, in front of Li Shimin, he grabbed the crown robe grandiosely, which is equivalent to telling Li Shimin that it was destined by the heavens that I, Li Chengqian, is the only crown prince.

This is also the first time since Li Chengqian's rebirth, he realized that he was far from being as indifferent as he showed in his previous life. He had tremblingly guarded his seat for most of his life, so how could he give it up to others.

In this life, he wants Jiangshan, he wants gratification, and there are many of them, and he wants to get everything back.

This time, it was Li Shimin who took the lead and knelt down, and he said in a deep voice to Li Yuan, who was above him: "Chengqian overstepped the rules, it is the son who has no way to teach the son, and I still hope that the father and elder brother, for the sake of Chengqian's youth, Forgive him this time."

Unexpectedly, before Li Jiancheng could say anything, Li Yuanji, the King of Qi beside him, sneered and said, "This is no way to teach your son well. The second brother really gave birth to a good son, and even planned his future for you."

Li Shimin heard the unkindness in his tone, but was blocked by him speechless.

Li Jiancheng was far more mature than the impulsive Li Yuanji. He knew that no matter what happened, he couldn't blame Li Chengqian for this matter. He was only so young, and he couldn't even say a few words. What he could understand, he couldn't complain about. When it comes to Li Shimin, since Li Chengqian is ignorant, it is absolutely impossible for Li Shimin to instigate him.

He didn't want to believe in the destiny of destiny, since it was the pattern on the crown that attracted Li Chengqian's attention, that's why he couldn't let it go.

So he knelt down slowly, patted Li Chengqian's head in a pleasant manner, picked him up, and said to Li Shimin: "Shimin, what are you doing? So it’s not a big deal to hold on to it.” Then, he pointed to the bamboo slip in Li Chengqian’s hand, and said loudly: “Look, isn’t the prince already caught Zhou?”

Li Yuan, who had been silent all this time, was in a mixed mood when he watched the play performed by the three brothers. He raised his hand to Li Shimin and said, "Shimin, get up first."

He waved to Li Jiancheng, who was holding Chengqian, and said slowly after Chengqian came in front of him, "Chengqian, you have thought about it, are you sure you want to take this bamboo slip?"

Of course Li Chengqian would not nod his head, his eyes wandered, but his hands did not relax at all.

Li Yuan nodded and said, "Take off the bamboo slips from Shi Zi's hands."

After the bamboo slips were unfolded in front of everyone, Li Chengqian realized that it was a volume of "Tao Te Ching".

In the Tang Dynasty, Taoism was regarded as the state religion, and Laozi and Zhuangzi were respectively named Daodetianzun and Nanhua Tianzun, so "Laozi" is also called Tao Te Ching, and "Zhuangzi" is called Nanhua Jing.

Li Yuan hugged Li Chengqian into his arms, and said loudly: "Chengqian is intelligent and beautiful, he is the reincarnation of heaven and man to protect my Great Tang, it is the great fortune of Great Tang."

Fortunately, Li Chengqian didn't drink water now, otherwise he would have to spit out a mouthful of water.

Li Shimin and the Changsun family were also stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a while, but the prince replied with a smile: "What the father said is true, this "Tao Te Ching" is the culmination of Taoism, Chengqian can grasp it, presumably Huigen It’s not shallow, and there will be great things in the future.”

As soon as the prince spoke, everyone reacted and echoed.Li Chengqian nestled in Li Yuan's arms, his face was about to burn.

The subsequent link is very ordinary, nothing more than actors performing, singing and dancing.Li Chengqian sat on Li Yuan's lap, and fell asleep after a while.

From time to time, Cheng Xin glanced at the little man sitting above him, and when he saw that his head was moving, he knew he was sleepy.

After a while, Li Chengqian was taken back to rest by the eldest grandson, and the crown princess also got up to leave with Li Chengzong.

The Changsun family who returned to Chengqian Palace felt a little uneasy. She looked at Li Chengqian's handsome eyes and murmured, "Could it be that this is really fate?"

Li Chengqian didn't know how to comfort his mother and concubine, so he could only curl up in Changsun's arms obediently.

The attendant presented the list of gifts to Changsun, and said with a smile: "This is the list of gifts from all the princes and ministers, Madam, please have a look."

While Changsun was watching, Li Chengqian in her arms also turned his head and stared at the gift list intently.

Most of the gift lists are items that match the identities of the ministers without making mistakes. For example, the assistant ministers in Li Shimin's mansion mostly gave them treasured calligraphy and paintings, ancient books and rare books. It takes months to understand the difficult and obscure books.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian saw the word "Fang Xiaolang" on the title, and after careful consideration, Fang Xiaolang was not referring to Fang Yizhi.

Immediately afterwards, behind the name, he saw what Fang Yizhi gave him: an ebony pen bed.

If it wasn't because he was too young, Li Chengqian might have laughed at his birth, but it really was the usual behavior of that piece of wood, and this gift fit his image very well.

In fact, not only Li Chengqian was watching, but Changsun also saw it. She stroked her forehead lightly, and said in a deep thought: "I specially called Zhi'er here, but I only cared about greeting the guests, and I forgot about him. It's hard for him to bother." I have prepared a gift, let me take a look."

Li Chengqian complained: It's just an ebony pen bed, what's so interesting about it.
