Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 43 Princesses of the Tang Dynasty
Li Zhi's beating was actually not unjust.

Just putting eye drops on Li Qing would be like beheading anyone else.

After hearing Li Qing's persuasion, Li Shimin put Li Zhi down. Feeling uneasy with his hatred, he slapped him again: "If your uncle hadn't begged for mercy, I would have cracked your butt today no matter what I said!"

Li Zhi burst into tears.

Do you know how harmful a competition can be to a nine-year-old child?
But there was nothing he could do. After all, it was him, Aye, who was beating him now. As the saying goes, it is natural for me to beat my son, and he had to endure it if he was not convinced.

"It seems that Aye is really fine." Li Qing lowered his head and said to Xiao Sizi.

Li Mingda chuckled. Since Aye actually had the strength to beat Brother Jiu so hard, he thought it would be fine.

As for Ninth Brother?Ha, I hope he's okay.

Children are easy to fool and have great forgetfulness. After Li Qing took out a bunch of snacks, Li Zhi also forgot about the burning on his buttocks and came over to share the snacks with Li Mingda.

Li Mingda carefully classified the snacks, seemingly according to taste, and divided them into several piles.

"Sizi is so attentive, do you still classify the snacks by flavor?" Li Qing sat next to her and said with a smile.

It seems that carefulness is a girl's nature. He remembered that when he was in school, his female classmate who was a top student especially liked to sort class notes and wrong question papers into categories.Li Qing once wanted to learn, but he gave up after studying for a few days.

I really don't have the patience.

Li Mingda smiled sweetly and said to Li Qing: "No, uncle, I am preparing it for the eldest brother, the fourth brother, and sister Changle... Well, the eldest brother likes to eat spicy food, so I give these spicy potato chips to him; the fourth brother Brother and sister Changle like to eat sweets, so I will give these snacks to them and keep the rest for myself."

"This child..." Li Qing touched her head. It was hard not to like such a well-behaved and sensible child.

Lao Li also looked at Li Mingda with red eyes, thinking about it, if he got a daughter like this, what more could a husband ask for?

As a result, Lao Li said something that Li Qing didn't expect at all.

"Sizi didn't prepare one for Aye?"

Li Qing, Li Mingda and Li Zhi turned to look at Li Shimin at the same time.

"Ah, hehe..." Li Mingda smiled shyly and pushed his own pile to Li Shimin.

"Aye, it's good to have this portion of Si Zi..."

Li Qing reached out and slapped his face, unable to bear to look directly.Good guy, Li Shimin's behavior is comparable to grabbing a lollipop with a primary school student.

For a moment, Lao Li's image of an eternal emperor collapsed in his eyes, and what followed was the image of an innocent old father who was a slave to his daughter.

Lao Li snorted very proudly, and Sizi peeled off a lollipop and handed it to Li Shimin's mouth.Lao Li held the lollipop in his mouth. Although his face looked arrogant, it was sweet in his heart.

Seeing that the father and daughter were enjoying themselves, Li Zhi also came up and handed Li Shimin a candy: "Aye, eat it."

Li Shimin slowly turned his head and looked at him with disgust.

Li Zhi: ...

The sky is blue, and there are thousands of paper cranes outside the window...

"Brother Ninth will eat it too." Li Mingda peeled off another lollipop and stuffed it into Li Zhi's mouth.

The power of the little cotton-padded jacket is endless. Under the warmth of his sister, Li Zhi suddenly forgot about Li Shimin's dislike.Only my sister is good in the world. Li Zhi's eyes became wet.

Li Mingda did not forget Li Qing and also peeled a lollipop for him.

"My dear child, I didn't hurt you in vain." Li Qing stretched out his hand and stroked Si Zi's little head with a smile.

After the two children left, Li Qing looked out the window and said softly: "Brother Li, you must pay attention to the education of your daughters."

"What do you mean, my dear brother?" Li Shimin asked in confusion, "Isn't this a good thing, Si Zi? Why would my dear brother say this?"

"I'm not talking about Sizi. Sizi is a good girl. It's a pity that the reputation of the Princess of Tang Dynasty started with Princess Gaoyang." Li Qing scratched his chin and continued: "I have told you before about her and The story of the monk Bianji’s affair and the rebellion in the Emperor Gaozong’s reign.”

"Besides her, there are a few more typical ones. I have to vaccinate you."

Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat, he had already thought that the wise brother would definitely have nothing good to say waiting for him.

"Let's start in order of seniority. Princess Yongjia won't mention it. Dou Fengjie can meet nine men who have cuckolded him when he goes out to buy bags of fruit. You should know this..."

At this point, Li Shimin's face froze.

How could he not know about Princess Yongjia's romantic affair?But after all, we are all a family, and in line with the principle that family scandals should not be made public, he chose to turn a blind eye and let the matter pass.

Besides, the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was relatively open. Romance was not a big deal at all, and rebellion was not an issue involving bottom lines and principles like Princess Baling and Princess Gaoyang.

This is also the reason why he allowed Princess Yongjia to run wild and never interfered.

"Let's talk about your youngest sister first, Princess Qianjin." Li Qing smacked his lips, "Do you still remember Xue Huaiyi, Empress Wu's male favorite during the reign of Si Sheng?"

"of course I remember."

How could Li Shimin not remember such an impressive thing?
"That Xue Huaiyi, whose real name was Feng Xiaobao, was originally a medicine seller in Luoyang City. Later, he was valued by your sister, Princess Qianjin, and became a guest."

Li Qing's voice was not loud, but it struck Li Shimin's heart like a heavy hammer.

He couldn't help but began to doubt life. His children and grandchildren were nothing more than insects. Why didn't his sister worry about each one of them?

"After Li Zhi's death, Princess Qianjin presented Feng Xiaobao to Empress Wu in order to please her. Empress Wu was so pleased that she converted him into a monk and renamed him Xue Huaiyi in order to facilitate his access to the palace."

"After Empress Wu became emperor, she massacred the Li family members. Only Princess Qianjin survived because she was good at flattery. This matter is still recorded in the history books."

"Not only that, Princess Qianjin also went to Shu to request that Empress Wu be recognized as her mother. Therefore, she received favor and changed her city name to Princess Yanan, and she was granted a real title."

When Li Shimin heard this, his face turned red instantly.

"What?! How can you be so shameless?!"

Originally, Lao Li thought that Princess Qianjin was just offering a male favor to Empress Wu in order to survive, which was not something unacceptable.But he never expected that Princess Qianjin would wipe her buttocks with fishnet stockings - exposing her hands harshly to him.

In terms of seniority, Princess Qianjin is the daughter of Li Yuan and Li Shimin's sister, so logically she should be Li Zhi's aunt; in terms of age, Princess Qianjin is even a few years older than Empress Wu.

It's a good thing, now he turned against Tiangang and recognized his nephew's daughter-in-law as his mother?
