In the second year of Zhenguan, July 21st.
This day is a big day for the entire Tang Dynasty.
Even Li Chengqian would rather hide and sleep in the mansion than enter the palace.
On this morning, they all got out of bed and ran to wait outside Kunning Palace.
All this is not because of anything else.
Just because Queen Changsun is about to give birth.
At this moment, people were standing outside the entire Kunning Palace, and Li Shimin was also here.
The three little ones, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Lizhi, stood in a row behind Li Shimin very consciously.
The palace maids and midwives were all busy, and low cries of pain continued to be heard in the room.
Li Shimin was anxious, but he couldn't get in, so he could only run around in circles.
"Father, you don't need to be too anxious."
"The mother-in-law is blessed with good fortune and will be in peace."
Li Tai, who was still young but had a bit of a fat look, made milky sounds of relief at the side.
As he said that, he moved a stool from the side: "You'd better sit down and take a rest."
"Need not."
"I feel better if I stand."
Li Shimin's eyes were always fixed on the direction of the door.
Empress Changsun married sixteen-year-old Li Shimin when she was thirteen.
At that time, they were still young and didn't understand what love was.
But they were childhood sweethearts, growing up and living together.
The hazy feelings slowly settled in the young years.
Li Shimin had countless beauties in his harem, but only Queen Changsun stayed with him throughout his life.
It can be said that Queen Changsun was present in every important moment in his life.
He will never forget the way she stood beside him without fear of life or death and encouraged the soldiers with him during the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
He will never forget that she hugged Li Chengqian and stood on the city wall by the Wei River, vowing to live and die with him.
They have always had a special tacit understanding that makes them look up to each other and respect each other as guests.
After an unknown amount of time, cheers finally came from the room, followed by the sound of a baby crying.
Grandma, who had been with Queen Changsun since she was a child and watched her grow up, rushed out of the house with tears in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, the empress has given birth to a little prince."
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's face finally showed a smile, and then he looked up and laughed.
He ignored the etiquette and ran into the house.
Empress Changsun huddled in bed tiredly, and lying next to her was the fleshy little guy.
The nanny next to her was still complimenting her with a smile on her face: "Your Highness is so handsome, fair and handsome. Congratulations to your majesty and congratulations to the empress."
Li Chengqian, who followed in, glanced forward and raised his eyebrows immediately.
Isn't this nonsense?
How did the red and wrinkled meat dumplings come to be so white and handsome?
But because of Li Chengqian's existence, Queen Changsun's diet has been greatly improved.
This guy is much fatter than ordinary children, and he looks round-headed.
But Li Shimin, the father, didn't even look at the child. He only focused on Empress Changsun.
"This time, it will be hard on you."
Li Shimin sat beside the bed, holding Queen Changsun's hand, looking like she was about to cry.
Although the face of Empress Changsun was full of exhaustion, she still smiled lightly.
"It is natural for a woman to give birth to a child, and there is nothing wrong with it."
"It's my fault that I made His Majesty worried."
The more she behaves like this, the more distressed Li Shimin becomes.
Seeing that these two people were trying to spoil each other again, Li Chengqian was very resistant.
Both have been married for more than ten years.
An old couple is still playing this trick.
Annoying or not?
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and jumped out at the right time.
He was lying on the bedside, teasing the fat boy on the bed.
"The little guy is so good-looking."
"You can tell from the looks of it that he will definitely become a prince in the future."
Um? ? ?
I heard what Li Chengqian said.
Empress Changsun and Li Shimin showed black question mark faces at the same time.
This little guy has just been born, and this bastard is already thinking about taking the blame?
{Received anger value +99 from Li Shimin...}
{Received anger value +99 from Changsun Wujia...}
In an instant, the faces of Li Shimin and Queen Changsun turned dark.
Li Shimin said angrily: "You've been talking nonsense all day long. Has it been that I haven't hit you in a while?"
I felt Li Shimin's full malice.
Li Chengqian subconsciously took a step back and said with a smile: "Father, wasn't this just a joke?"
joke?
Is this a joke?
Li Shimin was immediately laughed out of anger.
"Queen, please wait for me for a moment, and I will come back to accompany you after I teach him a lesson."
"Your Majesty, just go ahead and remember to beat my concubine's share as well."
If it weren't for her physical exhaustion, Queen Changsun would have taken matters into her own hands.
Listen to the conversation between the couple.
Li Chengqian was dumbfounded.
What the hell?
Beat yourself and have a substitute?
If you don’t run now, when will you wait?
The moment Li Shimin stood up, Li Chengqian had already thrown away his legs and ran out.
While running, he did not forget to shout: "Father, Emperor and Mother, I still have something to do at home, so I need to take a step forward!"
I saw Li Chengqian running away quickly.
Li Shimin stopped chasing, sat back on the bed again, and whispered to Queen Changsun.
"Queen, you need to have a good rest. You will have more children for me in the future."
After hearing these words of tiger and wolf, Queen Changsun blushed as red as an apple.
"Your Majesty, why are you starting to talk nonsense like Gan'er?"
"The children are still here..."
"What's wrong with them?"
"I want them some younger brothers and sisters, and they won't be happy?"
"You have to take good care of yourself. Let's go to Mount Zhongnan to enjoy the moon in a while."
The couple, who have been together for more than ten years, chatted so intimately.
Seeing their parents acting like this, Li Lizhi and Li Tai were so embarrassed that they wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
Now they both finally understood why Li Chengqian deliberately committed suicide.
He must want to escape from this place of right and wrong quickly.
For a moment, Li Lizhi regretted not running away with her elder brother.
Li Lizhi raised her head and looked at Li Shimin.
"Li Zhi, why do you look at me like this?"
Li Shimin's face was full of confusion.
"hey-hey."
Li Lizhi showed a silly smile to Li Shimin.
Seeing this smile, Li Shimin subconsciously felt familiar.
How come I have seen this smile before somewhere?
Before he could react, Li Lizhi's sinful little hands grabbed Li Shimin's beard.
"Little girl, what do you want to do?"
"Let me go, let me go!"
"ah!"
Following Li Shimin's scream, Li Lizhi ran wildly.
"Father, I'm going to stay at my eldest brother's house for two days. You can slowly get used to the Queen Mother..."
The son is like this, and the daughter is like this.
Li Shimin was very angry, and the consequences were serious.
But these two guys have run away, what can he do?
Could it be that he was scolding Empress Changsun?
That's definitely impossible.
And when he glanced around, he saw Li Tai standing in the hall with an embarrassed face.
He saw Li Shimin looking at him.
Li Tai swallowed.
"Father, is it still too late for me to be naughty?"
"That's too late."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Shimin grabbed Li Tai's belt, held him under his arm and beat him severely.
He beat Li Tai until he screamed.
This farce was caused by Li Chengqian, deepened by Li Lizhi, and Li Tai took the blame.
It finally ended after Li Tai received a severe beating.
Li Tai expressed his grievance.
Why am I the one getting beaten...
