Since Li Chengqian left Chang'an, it has marked that the position of crown prince of the Tang Dynasty was completely empty, so naturally someone has taken action.

The recent frequent entry of Wei Li Tai into the palace is significantly higher, because one son died and one son was displaced. The father and emperor are inevitably sad recently. As a son, he should go to the palace to visit and accompany him and fulfill his filial piety.

According to the news from the palace, His Highness of the King of Wei seemed to be in line with His Majesty the Emperor's mind, and the father and son got along very well. As the number of times the King of Wei entered the palace increased, His Majesty Li Er finally began to smile on his gloomy face.

This is an obvious signal. What does it mean that a prince is particularly favored at this time?

So many people in the court and the public were thinking that it seemed that His Highness of the King of Wei had entered the Eastern Palace, which was not surprising. The King of Wei was the second son of Empress Wende Changsun.

According to the inheritance system, it is reasonable to have the second son succeeded to the throne after the incident of the eldest son Li Chengqian. What's more, His Highness the King of Wei himself has a brilliant literary talent and has a high prestige in the court and the country.

As for the rumor that the deposed crown prince Li Chengqian accused him of seeking a throne, it has now disappeared with Li Tai's plea for Li Chengqian.

Now that His Majesty the Emperor favors the King of Wei so much, it seems to be enough to explain the problem. The position of crown prince seems to be in Li Tai's possession.

After a little longer, Li Tai himself also had this illusion, so he specially found an opportunity to pounce on his father's arms and asked to make him the crown prince.

It is hard to imagine a fat man in his twenties who is pounced on his father's arms and acted coquettishly and asked for something. Anyway, Li Tai did this, and the historical books also record it very clearly and it is conclusive.

At this time, His Majesty Li Er almost agreed directly, but in the end he did not make a clear statement.

This attitude suddenly made Li Tai a little flustered and uneasy. What was the medicine he was selling in his father's gourd? He obviously loved him so much, and he had a great responsibility and trusted him.

In the eyes of everyone, this is the treatment that the crown prince should have. But why did he not nod on key issues in the end and just not give himself this title?

Could it be that the father is pretending? But after getting along for a long time, Li Tai is very sure that the father's feelings in his eyes are not pretending. He looks at himself and Princess Li Mingda of Jinyang, which is the father's love for his children.

But why?

Is the father not going to pass the throne to himself? Or is he not going to become a crown prince now? Or is he going to be inspecting himself for a period of time?

Unable to touch his father's mind, Li Tai was like a monk for a moment, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

"Why is my father's move?" Li Tai asked softly in the Wei Prince's Mansion.

Liu Xuan was also a little puzzled. After Li Chengqian was deposed, the emperor's series of actions made him think that Li Tai was the position of crown prince.

But this small change suddenly made them a little nervous and nervous. Liu Xuan pondered: "Can your Majesty hear some wind?"

They knew what the wind was like. Li Tai was a little nervous, and then shook his head and said, "No, if the father noticed something, he would probably not be the current attitude. I think that the father might be worried about something, but what are you worried about?"

Liu Xuan couldn't help but start to guess secretly, but he couldn't give an accurate answer. After pondering for a long time, he said, "I can't say it. It's best to consult Du Changshi for such a thing."

"Yes, Changshi Du is knowledgeable and can definitely grasp the feelings of his father, but he is not in Chang'an now, so this matter..." Li Tai shook his head helplessly, feeling very regretful.

Du Chuke was the Minister of Works. Some time ago, the Yellow River flooded, and the canal east of Luoyang was destroyed, affecting the passage of canals. Chang'an has a large population and all the food depends on the canal transport from the south of the Yangtze River. If something goes wrong, the military and civilians in Chang'an will go hungry.

Therefore, it is a big deal to repair the canal as soon as possible. He, the Minister of Works, had to hurry to go and preside over the maintenance matters. Even though he was not in Chang'an, he did not care about the big and small matters of the Wei Palace, and Li Tai had no way to ask for advice.

An important think tank is very important, especially a think tank with a wide range of knowledge and can see through the truth in the complex mist.

There are many such people in the court, but they are all at the prime ministers, the three dukes and nine ministers. They will definitely not easily get involved in the princes, and will not easily act rashly in the matter of becoming a crown prince.

If you are lucky, you will follow the dragon's achievements. What will happen if you are not lucky? Hou Junji's previous lessons are still there, and he is always alert.

For these high-ranking ministers, no matter which prince ascends the throne in the future, they will have to rely on them. Why take risks to go further?

Of course, there are also some special people among them who have some ideas about the position of crown prince for some special reasons, but they are also very cautious.

Li Tai was also helpless. The only person who was around him was Du Chuke. He was not in Chang'an yet, so he didn't know his return date. He had also thought about asking for help from his uncle Changsun Wuji, but who knew there was no way to ask for help!

Since Li Chengqian's accident, Changsun Wuji hid directly in the Nanshan villa on the grounds of recuperation. It is said that he is still meditating and enlightening the Tao, and now he is still raising the furnace to refine alchemy.

The dignified uncle and Sikong of the dynasty actually started these things. Is Changsun Wuji really obsessed with Huang Lao's learning? Li Tai felt that Changsun Wuji wanted to avoid some people, including himself.

Crazy and cunning!

To some extent, it was also a very dangerous signal, which made Li Tai very uneasy, so he had to gather some think tanks with limited levels.

The Wei Palace has never lacked talents. A few years ago, the "Guodizhi" was compiled. The palace has a literary museum, which gathered a lot of talents. In the past, because the prince was in power, Li Tai, as the prince, only dared to edit books publicly and engage in literary events, but did not dare to blatantly engage in conspiracies and tricks.

Now that the East Palace is empty, there are fewer concerns. Li Tai selected some people from it and became his own think tank under the leadership of Liu Xuan. Although they are not as good as Du Chuke, Youdao is that three cobblers can resist one Zhuge Liang, and at least they can have some effect.

The first task of the think tank was to guess His Majesty’s thoughts. Why did His Majesty immediately agree to His Highness the King of Wei’s request to establish a crown prince? And proposed a response.

Not to mention, the cobblers have analyzed it for a long time and came to a conclusion. They believe that the two rebellions between Li Chengqian and Li You stimulated His Majesty the Emperor, making him very concerned about the murder of his brothers and feet. Of course, this may also be related to His Majesty's concern about the recurrence of the tragedy of the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

This conclusion suddenly awakened Li Tai. It seemed that this was indeed the truth. The father had concerns, worried that he would not be able to treat his brothers well in the future! (To be continued.)
