Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Chapter 165: This is the ※※ plot, Li Zhi’s collapse!
In China's more than 2000 years of feudal history, there have been many puppet emperors who were made false.

For example, Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty who left "why not eat minced meat", Emperor Xian Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty who was controlled by the Empress Dowager Cixi.

These emperors were unable to resist due to lack of personal talents, oppression of the current situation, and the power of powerful ministers, and could only become puppets.

Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, was a wise emperor who was completely different from the three emperors mentioned above.

Logically speaking, as an emperor on horseback and experienced in hundreds of battles, it is absolutely impossible for him to be ignored.

However, in fact, even a lion will have its twilight days. In his youth, no one dared to offend Li Shimin, and one word could determine the world's affairs.

But in his later years, Li Shimin still couldn't escape the fate of being ignored.

The most obvious evidence is that in his later years, Li Shimin no longer even had the ability to detect an affair between his son and his concubine.

Although they committed such outrageous incest, both Li Zhi and Wu Mei would try their best to hide it.

But some small flaws will definitely be noticed by the palace people, who will realize that the relationship between the two is a bit too close.

According to responsibilities, these should be reported to Li Shimin immediately.

However, no one told Li Shimin these things until Li Shimin passed away on the hospital bed.

One is the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who is about to pass away and no longer has any majesty.

The other one is the high-spirited Prince of the Tang Dynasty who is about to ascend to the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

As long as the palace people are not stupid, they know what choices to make.

Before traveling to Da Qin, Cui Yuan, who knew this period of history for the first time, sympathized with Li Shimin from the bottom of his heart.

The once majestic Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was treated with such humiliation in his later years. He was cuckolded by his own son and became the laughing stock of future generations. How sad is this?

It can be said that this was a stain on the lives of Li Shimin and Li Zhi, which indirectly led to the later stories of Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei.

"Your Majesty, this is the first of the two mistakes I just mentioned."

"Li Zhi completely crossed the ethical and moral bottom line between him and Wu Mei."

After Cui Yuan finished speaking, he was ready to take action.

In his expectation, after Li Shimin learned the news, he would definitely get angry again and beat Li Zhi to death completely.

If the future Tang Gaozong died in front of him like this, it would be a big joke.

Ying Zheng also retreated with Ying Yinman, fearing that he would be affected by the angry Li Shimin.

However, it was beyond everyone's expectations.

After Li Shimin learned the news, not only did he not feel angry, but he fell into silence for a long time.

He didn't know how long it took before he raised his head and looked at Li Zhi, who was kneeling on the ground, his whole body trembling with fear.

"Get up."

"Tell your father carefully why you like Wu Mei and when did you develop this relationship?"

Li Shimin has never been an impulsive person. He seems to be extremely irritable about many things, but he knows exactly what result he wants.

This was already reflected in many places when he first fought on the battlefield of the Tang Dynasty.

For Li Shimin, he has already punished Li Zhi, so the most important thing now is to completely understand why his son likes Wu Mei.

In this world, three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged women are everywhere!
Not to mention that Li Zhi now has no shortage of women around him.

Even if we don’t mention Li Zhi’s princess, she comes from the Wang family in Taiyuan, but is infertile.

Let’s talk about the Xiao family, the Liu family, the Zheng family, and the Yang family. Which one is not a top beauty?

In particular, the Xiao family was born in the Lanling Xiao family, a descendant of the Liang Dynasty royal family, and a relative of Xiao Yu, the famous prime minister in the early Tang Dynasty.

She is very charming and has a great body. She has given birth to two daughters and one son for Li Zhi, namely - Princess Yiyang, Princess Gao'an and Li Sujie.

With such a beautiful blessing, Li Shimin couldn't figure out what charm Wu Mei, who had been left out in the harem by him, had to make Li Zhi make such a treasonous mistake.

"Child slave, my father doesn't want to hit you now."

"But you must give an honest account to Father."

Cui Yuan blinked, and immediately retreated to Ying Zheng and Ying Yinman's side, and began to act like a crowd.

This kind of royal secret cannot be recorded in history books, which means that what I know immediately is Scorpion Papa's unique and shocking secret!

In Tai Chi Palace, Li Zhi came back to his senses.

The Prince of the Tang Dynasty bit his lip, feeling extremely resistant. He didn't want so many people to know what he was thinking, but he also understood that these two questions must be answered no matter what.

"Father, do you still remember when my son sucked out the toxins from the sores for you?"

Li Zhi did not answer directly, but talked about the past and fell into memories.

"remember."

Li Shimin nodded, of course he would not forget this matter.

This was the most satisfying and gratifying thing about Li Zhi before.

"This was three years ago."

Li Shimin said with emotion: "At that time, I fell ill when I returned from the expedition to Goryeo, and I did not get better after several months."

"I feel like I don't have much time left, so I often summon you and plan to train you."

Li Zhi's heart twitched violently, he bowed his head in shame, and continued: "Well, actually, my love for Wu Mei also sprouted at that time."

"In order to take care of my father's health, at that time I stayed in the East Palace to attend to the affairs of state in the morning. After I came back, I went to the palace to prepare medicinal meals for my father. I never left my side."

"As a martial artist at that time, Wu Mei's main task was to serve her father on the sickbed."

"As we go back and forth, I will have more opportunities to meet her."

"And because I am too busy every day, I have no time to go back to the East Palace to favor the Crown Princess and so on. My son is young and energetic, and she is gentle and considerate. She is always willing to listen to my complaints."

"So Wu Mei and I started flirting with each other, and gradually... started to... go out of our way."

Li Zhi stammered the last few words and shed tears as he spoke, as if every word weighed a thousand pounds.

He didn't think it was anything before, but now after he said it completely, he realized that he was really ashamed.

How could I be such a beast and do such an outrageous thing!
"It turns out that was that time...it turned out to be so early..."

Li Shimin's eyes were more complicated. He didn't expect that the matter between the two of them started three years ago.

ridiculous!

I have been deceived all the time, thinking that Li Zhi is a filial and sensible boy, and I have been proud of Li Zhi many times.

Li Shimin sighed, his heart cut like a knife. Looking at Li Zhi's painful expression, he wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't reach out his hand.

Li Zhi felt uncomfortable, so how could he not feel uncomfortable?

"do not Cry."

"Continue to answer Father's question, what do you like about Wu Mei?"

"This this……"

This question seemed to be more difficult than the previous one. Li Zhi stuttered for a long time, his expression kept changing, and he did not dare to speak out.

Even if Li Shimin forced him many times, it would not help.

"Cui Shenxian, do you know what it is? Are these things recorded in the history books of later generations?" Li Shimin had no choice but to ask Cui Yuan for help.

Although he could beat Li Zhi, Physics persuaded him to reveal the truth.

But looking at this look, I'm afraid that even if he beat Li Zhi to death, Li Zhi wouldn't say anything.

"There is no relevant record in the history books, but I do have a guess."

Cui Yuan answered seriously, touching his chin with one hand, seeming to be thinking about something.

In fact, he had no idea why Li Zhi fell in love with Wu Mei. After all, history books would not record this.

But after listening to Li Zhi's description, Cui Yuan had a very bold guess in his mind.

"Your Majesty Li Er, your third son Li Zhi, he... he may have an Oedipus complex."

"Oedipus plot?"

Li Shimin was stunned and didn't understand the meaning of this word at all.

Isn't it about Li Zhi and Wu Mei?

Why did it suddenly rise to the level of Oedipus?This more outrageously abstract concept of incest?
Although Wu Mei is her own talent, it is not her turn to be a mother, right?
Li Zhi also blushed, feeling deeply insulted!
"Cui Shenxian, although I am indeed guilty, how could you slander me out of thin air?"

"It's too much!"

In his heart, although he likes Wu Mei, the only real mother is Empress Changsun!
"Your Majesty Li Er, Prince."

"My Oedipal plot doesn't mean that you like your mother, Prince. It means that you like women who are older than you."

Cui Yuan explained humorously to calm the two people's emotions.

Although this word has great ambiguity, he did not expect that the two of them would understand it so well.

"Your Highness, may I ask, have you been insecure since you were a child, especially after witnessing the death of Queen Changsun?"

Li Zhi looked hesitant, but finally nodded: "Yes."

"After my mother passed away, I felt that my mother was still around for a long time. I often hallucinated that she was calling my name. It wasn't until a few years ago that she disappeared."

"Especially when I see the eldest brother and the second brother fighting each other endlessly and turning against each other in order to compete for the throne."

"I often dream that if my mother was around, maybe there would be no conflict between the eldest brother and the second brother."

These things had always been secrets in Li Zhi's heart, and no one dared to tell them.

As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, he could be filial to his father, but he could not show indecision.

Otherwise, he will be regarded as a soft persimmon who is easy to manipulate, and his father will be very disappointed in him.

But now, with everything about Wu Mei revealed, Li Zhi no longer intends to hide it.

Anyway, no matter how bad it is, it's not as bad as this situation. It's better to confess everything.

Li Shimin was stunned: "Zhinu, I didn't expect you..."

He always thought that his child had overcome his grief very early, but he didn't expect that he had been alone and sad all these years, unable to extricate himself.

"now it's right."

Cui Yuan nodded.

Li Zhi's words were completely in line with his guess.

"It is precisely because of this dependence that you eventually developed feelings for Wu Mei that you shouldn't have."

"Your Highness, please tell me the truth."

"When Wu Mei was caring to you, listening to you quietly, solving your problems, and taking care of your father with you..."

"Did you think for a moment that she was your mother's eldest grandson Wugou?"

Bang!
"how is this possible?"

"Cui Yuan, stop joking!"

"I... oh my god!"

Cui Yuan's words seemed earth-shattering!
As soon as it fell, it caused exclamations from Ying Zheng, Li Shimin and Ying Yinman!
How could such an outrageous thing happen?

The three of them were in complete disbelief.

But Cui Yuan didn't care, but stared directly at Li Zhi: "Tell me!"

Li Zhi's face was covered with sweat, and he did not utter a word of acknowledgment.

But at this time, silence and sweat are the best answers.

thump!

"Treason! Treason! You... how could you commit such treason and evil thoughts!"

Li Shimin's body softened and he collapsed on the dragon chair, looking stunned!
Li Zhi didn't explain, he didn't dare to speak at all.

In fact, before today, he had never thought that he would have any Oedipus complex. He always thought that his relationship with Wu Mei arose suddenly.

But now, after Cui Yuan reminded him, he suddenly woke up.

It turns out that the reason why I had a crush on Wu Mei in the first place was because I saw the shadow of my mother in the latter.

Although he did not have Oedipus physically, spiritually, he deserved death and was unforgivable!

"I'm sorry, father, I have no face to live anymore!"

Li Zhi drew his sword and made the decision to kill himself here!
After realizing his true heart, Li Zhi completely lost his belief in living.

His words were like a thunder that suddenly woke up the collapsed Li Shimin.

The emperor was so angry that he immediately stood up and knocked off the sword that Li Zhi had placed on his neck!

"Son, do you want your father and Guanyin to be extinct?"'
"Death, die! I didn't let you die, how could you die!"

Li Shimin was furious and scolded Li Zhi a lot!

"But... Ke Erchen really has no shame in living!"

Li Zhi was about to cry to death. Now, his whole body was bursting with shame.

The thought that something like this might be passed down to future generations made him want to commit suicide immediately.

To put it in later terms, it means wanting to live on a different planet and escape from the solar system at the speed of light.

He still wanted to struggle and kill himself, but Cui Yuan stepped forward to stop him. He held his hand and forcibly "helped" him put the sword back.

"Your Highness, you don't have to be like this at all."

"Although you have an Oedipus complex towards Wu Mei, you are not the first emperor to do so."

"In the future, there will be an emperor who is more abstract than you. He falls in love with his wet nurse, and they are 20 years apart."

"He can accept it calmly and let the historian record it in the history books. What do you worry about?"

Li Zhi's struggling movements paused, and the four words "Doubt Life" flashed in his eyes.

There is such an abstract emperor, who is he!
