Chapter 24 Li Yuanchang, King of Han

Li Xiang, who came from modern times, understood that Li Chengqian had always been resistant to rebellion. It was only the instigation of Li Yuanchang, Du He and others that finally embarked on the road of no return. Therefore, for Li Yuanchang and Du He, Li Xiang has already asked his subordinates to monitor him 24 hours a day.

They must not be allowed to have any form of contact with Li Chengqian. They just demolished the mourning hall in the East Palace, which can be regarded as a good impression on the emperor. However, if they have contact with these people again, the good impression they just had will disappear.

"Zhao Yuanhui."

After Li Xiang finished speaking, a sturdy man came in from the door. This was Li Xiang's head guard.

"Follow the lonely king to the gate of the East Palace, and wait and see what I'm saying."

After Li Xiang left, several young eunuchs behind him quickly came over and carried the chair to the door. You must know that there were no chairs in the Tang Dynasty. After Li Xiang drew the picture, he handed it to the craftsmen of the East Palace, and they rushed out quickly. of.

In the past, I am afraid these people were not so obedient, but after the changes in the past few days, as long as they are not stupid, they will naturally know who the next generation master of the East Palace is. Can they not work hard for the little master?

There is already a hint of chill in Chang'an City in late autumn, and the sky is slowly getting dark. What good things can Li Yuanchang do by coming to the East Palace at this time?

For Li Yuanchang, the King of Han Dynasty, the East Palace was no stranger. He would come here almost every three or two days, but today when he got off the eight-carriage sedan, he saw that the gate of the East Palace was blocked, and there was a child sitting in the center. , isn’t that Li Xiang, the eldest son of the East Palace?

Li Yuanchang didn't have the opportunity to go to court to listen to politics, so he didn't know much about the affairs of the court. However, there was such a big commotion in the capital, and he also knew that this kid was different from before. Why was he blocking his way today?

Li Yuanchang and his men slowly walked to the door, waiting for Li Xiang to come over to greet him, but Li Xiang was sitting on his seat without any intention of getting up. This made Li Yuanchang very angry. What can you say about me? I am also from your grandfather's generation, have you imitated all your etiquette like a dog's belly?

"Be brave. If you don't kneel down when you see His Highness the King of Han, what kind of crime should you do?"

With a look from Li Yuanchang, the gangsters next to him immediately passed by. They usually surrounded Li Yuanchang to do evil, and coupled with Li Shimin's tolerance, the entire Chang'an City also walked sideways.

However, there have been huge changes in the court in the past two days. They have not received any news from the court, so naturally they will not take the prince's concubine seriously.

"ah…"

Before the eunuch understood what was going on, a heartbreaking pain came from the eunuch's left hand. When he looked over, his left hand had separated from his body, and a scream filled the entire east palace.

Li next to him raised his knife and cut off the guy's left hand without any hesitation.

"I frightened His Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson for no reason. According to the law, I will cut off one of his hands..."

Qian Ping, the eunuch chief of the East Palace, straightened up. Although he was the prince's dog, he could be treated as a dog to either of these two men. If His Highness the Emperor Changsun was looking for trouble at the door, we had to follow him happily.

At this time, everyone saw Li Xiang sitting in his seat and taking a nap. Didn't you scare His Highness the Emperor Changsun by speaking so loudly just now?

"You are so brave. I scared you too. Do you want to chop off my hand too?"

Li Yuanchang said angrily that he didn't care about a slave's hand, not even his life, but the problem was that in front of him, if you cut off his slave's left hand, it was equivalent to hitting him in the face.

"It turns out that the King of Han is here. What's going on with you people? Why didn't you wake me up just now? I just squinted a little. Now that something like this happened, why should I cut off someone's hand? Is there any more royal method?"

Li Xiang looked like he had just woken up. Although he spoke harshly, he didn't even have the intention to stand up.

Li Yuanchang was also puzzled. When did I offend you?

"Returning to Your Highness, you were resting just now. He took two steps forward for no reason and was already close to you. He also spoke rudely. If he frightened you or made other actions, the servants would not be able to bear it. Guard Li also ordered There are many unruly people in the world under Tang Law, but you are the only one who has the emperor’s eldest grandson. Cut off his left hand. This is reasonable, reasonable and legal."

Qian Ping seemed to be explaining to Li Xiang, but in fact he was explaining to Li Yuanchang. While talking, he described the distance just now. Li Yuanchang's eunuch was used to being arrogant and did not take the prince's bastard seriously. He had indeed crossed the line just now. Due to the distance, it would be reasonable for us to regard him as an assassin. Even if the lawsuit reaches Dali Temple, those gentlemen cannot say that we did something wrong.

"That's nonsense. I have something important to see your father. Get out of my way."

Li Yuanchang didn't understand what was going on here, but he really had something important to see Li Chengqian. Naturally, he didn't have the time to waste time with Li Xiang. He wanted to go in directly, but Li Xiang's stool was placed in the center of the east palace gate. There were hundreds of guards and slaves on both sides, and there was no way to get in.

"Your Highness the King of Han, my father is in poor health. He has already informed all the officials that he will not see guests for a month. Please come back."

Li Xiang said while picking at his fingernails, the slave next to him who had his hand cut off is now unconscious. You, Li Yuanchang, don't care about your slave, let alone me. You will be the one to bury him after he dies.

"Fart, that's someone else you're talking about. Do I have a normal relationship with your father? Go and inform your father immediately. If something goes wrong, you can't afford to delay."

Li Yuanchang naturally knew about Li Chengqian's grounding, but he always paid no attention to these matters. Relying on the love of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan and Li Shimin's tolerance, various court regulations were not a problem in his eyes, so he never Observed.

"What if I don't go?"

Li Xiang put down the hand he had been playing with for a long time, and then stood up with his hands behind his back. The steps of the East Palace were forty centimeters high. At this moment, he looked down at Li Yuanchang with a cold look in his eyes. Li Yuanchang was also puzzled. As a three-year-old kid, why do I feel so shuddering?

"You are no older than you are. I am a generation older than your father. Is this your attitude towards the elders of the Li family?"

Li Yuanchang said angrily.

"You are the concubine of my great-grandfather. I can live with you or without you in the royal family of the Tang Dynasty. I am the eldest grandson of the current emperor and the eldest son of the crown prince. In terms of status in your family, how do you compare with me? When the common people divide their families, how can a concubine compare to the eldest grandson? ?"

Li Xiang's words made Li Yuanchang tremble all over with anger...
