In the spring of the fourth year of Zhenguan.
Crown Prince Manor.
Li Chengqian stretched out his arms and allowed the maid beside him to dress up.
In the bronze mirror, the man was smiling. His face was like jade, and he wore a light yellow python robe, making him look even more valiant.
"Your Highness, are you going to court today?”
"Yes."
Li Chengqian nodded and smiled at the maid Xiao Ying." Order Yunfeng to prepare the carriage."”
"Yes."
Xiao Ying nodded and left.
A moment later, the carriage slowly drove towards the Imperial Palace.
In the Imperial Palace.
Taiji Palace was bustling with activity.
Laughter rang out from time to time.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"Now that the Turks have been defeated and Jie Li has been captured, no one can stop the might of our Great Tang!”
"Back then, when Jie Li's army came to the city, did you ever think that one day you would become a captive of our Great Tang?”
"Hahaha…"
The morning court was supposed to be solemn, but at this moment, everyone was overjoyed by the good news sent by the post station.
Even Li Shi Min was delighted.
In the face of everyone's flattery, as well as the proud and mocking voices of the Turks, he calmly let them go.
Because no one wanted to shout more than him.
Jie Li!
Thirty years to the east and thirty years to the west, did you ever think that you would have such a day?
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince requests an audience.”
"The Crown Prince is here?"
"Hahaha, could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince has also received the news and has come to congratulate His Majesty?”
"His Highness the Crown Prince has been trying to assassinate you a few days ago, and he has been too tired from studying. Now that he has heard that the Turks have been defeated and captured, he must have come to congratulate Your Majesty!”
Li Shimin waved his hand with a smile.”
"Crown Prince Xuan greets you!"
"Your son greets Imperial Father!"
Li Chengqian strode in and bowed in front of everyone.
Li Shi Min smiled and waved his hand." The Crown Prince is tired from studying. I have allowed you to rest in the residence. Is there anything important in court now?"”
As Li Shiming's voice fell, everyone's gaze turned towards Li Chengqian.
This time was undoubtedly the best time for Li Chengqian to flatter him.
However…
Li Chengqian smiled." Father, your son has something important to report.”
Li Tai stepped forward and said,"Imperial brother, now that the Turks have been defeated, what else could be better than capturing Jie Li alive and winning this battle?"”
Li Chengqian glanced at Li Tai from the corner of his eyes. This was the fourth brother, Li Tai.
As expected, he coveted the position of the Eastern Palace.
The moment she opened her mouth, she lifted him up. She was something.
Zhangsun Wuji smiled and said," Fourth Prince, you are wrong. The battle against the Turks was a great victory, but you cannot be arrogant. Moreover, although Jie Li was defeated and captured, there are still Xue Yantuo and the others.”
"In addition, we can't be too happy because of the defeat of the Turks and neglect our domestic affairs.”
Everyone nodded.
The victory over the Turks was the glory of the Great Tang, but it was not appropriate to neglect the political affairs of the country because of this victory.
"Today is a great victory, so there's no need to be so serious." Li Shimin laughed.”
As he spoke, Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and said,"Crown Prince, tell me, what's the matter?”
Li Chengqian bowed deeply." Father, your son has been studying the books of the sages and sages so hard that he has been muddleheaded for several days.”
"Recently, your son's mind has been clear. I suddenly realized that all of this was not what I wanted.”
"Awakened?"
"Yes, son, I am ashamed that I am unable to take on such a heavy responsibility.”
“???”
In an instant.
All the officials in the court, as well as Li Shimin who was sitting on the throne, looked at Li Chengqian in shock.
Li Tai, Li Ke, and the other princes also looked at Li Chengqian strangely.
Withdraw the order?
What do you want to take back?
The smile on Li Shi Min's face gradually disappeared. He silently glanced at Li Tai, who had stepped out, and said slowly,"What does the Crown Prince mean by retracting the order?”
Zhangsun Wuji kept signaling with his eyes. His Majesty has already given you a way out, don't mess around!
Li Chengqian's expression was calm." Your son, I beg Imperial Father to retract his order. Naturally, it will be the position of the Eastern Palace's heir!"”
Boom!
In an instant.
Everyone felt as if a thunderbolt had exploded in their hearts.
Even though everyone had some vague guesses in their hearts, they still found it hard to believe. Pairs of shocked and incredulous gazes landed on Li Chengqian in unison.
Even though Li Chengqian's expression was calm and the corners of his mouth were smiling, everyone still felt that this was not Li Chengqian's true side!
Pairs of eyes wished they could drill into Li Chengqian's body to see what he was thinking!
Li Shi Min clenched his fists and said expressionlessly,""Crown Prince! Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Your son is willing to abdicate and move out of the Crown Prince's residence. Imperial Father, please choose another heir!"”
Bang!
Li Shi Min slammed the table and stood up. He glared fiercely at Li Chengqian, then coldly stared at Li Tai and turned to leave!
"Retreat!"
Abdicate and move out of the Crown Prince's residence?
Pairs of shocked gazes watched as that handsome figure walked further and further away.
Without a doubt.
Compared to the Tu Jue's victory, Jie Li's capture, and Li Chengqian's voluntary abdication, this shocked the entire court.
The prince of a country is the root of a country.
And now.
Li Chengqian wanted to abolish his position as Crown Prince!
Who would have thought that?
Suddenly.
Many gazes swept over those figures, some directly, some without leaving a trace. This was especially so for the stunned Li Tai.
There was only one voice in his head.
He wanted to abdicate?
My chance is here?
