Chapter 545
When Empress Changsun finished explaining to Li Ke and the door of the palace slowly opened, there were already many people standing outside the door of Lizheng Hall.

Emperor Li Shimin, Crown Prince Li Chengqian, Prince Wei Li Tai, sons and daughters of Empress Changsun, as well as the ministers of the three provinces headed by Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, all came together.

All the princes and prime ministers were waiting outside the hall, but Empress Zhangsun only heard about Li Ke. What they talked about, everyone was naturally very curious. When the door opened, everyone was quiet under the leadership of Li Shimin. entered the temple.

In the hall, Li Ke was kneeling in front of Empress Changsun's bed. This scene was familiar to everyone in the hall. It seemed that it was the case when Li Yuan was about to die. Changsun Wuji, Li Chengqian, and Li Tai always felt that something was wrong.

Except for Li Ke, everyone in the palace was staring at Empress Changsun, waiting for Empress Changsun to explain. Finally, after a while, Empress Changsun finally spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has one thing to ask you." Empress Changsun said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin said: "You and I have been husband and wife for many years, what else can you ask for, just ask, and I will do it for you."

Empress Changsun's eyes were no longer as shrewd as when she was dealing with Li Ke just now, she just touched the top of Li Ke's head lovingly in front of her, and said to Li Shimin: "Ke'er, this child is practical and steady in doing things, and he is friendly to brothers and sisters. I like it very much, I want to accept him as a son-in-law, and entrust him with the affairs of the afterlife, to guard the funeral and support the spirit, and I hope His Majesty will grant you."

Just now when Li Chengqian and the others looked at Empress Changsun's actions, they felt a little uneasy. When Empress Changsun spoke, their faces were filled with astonishment.

Leaving aside the crumbling crown prince Li Chengqian, the reason why Wei Wang Li Tai was able to compete with Li Ke was that his greatest reliance and advantage was his status as a legitimate son. Is there anything that can be used to compete with Li Ke?

Changsun Wuji and the others naturally wanted to open their mouths to object, but then they stopped. No matter whether it is the lineage of the eldest grandson or the lineage of the prince, the empress of the eldest grandson is respected. Now that the end of the empress of the eldest grandson is approaching, how can they dare to refute The meaning of Empress Changsun.

But after a while, unable to wait for them to figure it out, Li Shimin had already spoken.

Li Shimin said: "Okay, I promise you that Ke'er will be your son and my son in the future, and he will be regarded as the king of Wei in all internal and external affairs."

The royal family members are here, the prime minister is here, once Li Shimin's words come out, the matter of Li Keli's succession is concluded, leaving only Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Changsun Wuji standing in the hall, looking at each other in blank dismay.

After Li Shimin agreed, Empress Changsun looked at Li Ke again, and said to Li Ke: "Ke'er, don't forget what you promised me."

As soon as the words of Empress Changsun came out, everyone in the palace looked at Li Ke again. The fact that Empress Changsun appointed Li Ke as her son-in-law came suddenly, which was not in line with common sense. This made Empress Changsun want Li Ke to be her first son.

With tears in his eyes, Li Ke replied, "Don't worry, Queen Mother. The sons will always remember Queen Mother's teachings, so that they can take good care of their brothers and sisters, and don't distract Father and Queen, and don't make Queen Mother worry."

As soon as Li Kezhi's words came out, everyone in the hall understood the reason.

The King of Chu has always been known as doting on his younger siblings in the court, and was impeached by officials for this reason, but the reputation of the crown prince is not as good as that of the King of Chu. Li Ke is the eldest son, and he is asked to take care of his brothers and sisters.

Li Shimin on the side didn't know what to do, and he couldn't guess the deal between Empress Changsun and Li Ke, but he could also guess what Empress Changsun was thinking.Most likely it was the prince's bewilderment, which broke the heart of Empress Changsun, and the sons and daughters were young and worried, so they entrusted the prince to Li Ke, who acted prudently.

After explaining the matter clearly, Empress Changsun also let go of a lot at once, and gave a few words of advice to the princes and Changsun Wuji, and entrusted the funeral.

------------

Empress Changsun's deadline is approaching, inside and outside the palace, especially the Lizheng Hall, is in a mess, even Li Shimin's heart is in disarray, but there is only one person who seems very quiet, and this person is just the one who has just won the favor of Empress Changsun Li Ke.

Everyone in the hall was surrounding the Empress Changsun, but Li Ke was standing at the side of the hall, holding the five-year-old Jinyang Princess Li Mingda in a corner of the hall.

The little Sizi is young and doesn't know anything. She looks at A Niang lying on the bed and doesn't know what it means, and no one will be cruel enough to tell this little princess that she is about to lose her A Niang forever. .

At this time, the little Sizi was lying in Li Ke's arms, and Li Ke was rubbing her pink and tender cheeks like shelled eggs.

Li Ke is nineteen years old, and a short beard has grown under his chin. Because he entered the palace in a hurry, he didn't take care of it. Li Ke's short beard rubbed against Xiao Si's cheek, and it was tickling. laugh.

Xiao Si has always been very close to Li Ke, even closer than her biological elder brother. Li Ke gave her baby name. Li Ke hugged Xiao Si, and his sad face was full of love and affection. gentle.

Not long after Empress Zhangsun finished explaining Li Ke's time, Li Ke was here hugging her little son and loving her. Li Shimin looked at the scene in front of him, both relieved and worried.

Li Shimin walked up to Li Ke, looked at Li Ke who was holding his little son in his arms, and said, "Princess Chu has been pregnant for a long time, and the childbirth is imminent. Ke'er will be a father in a few days."

Li Ke said: "It's not easy to be an official, and it's even more difficult to be a father. I don't know if I can take care of both public and private affairs. I can do a good job like my father."

Li Shimin patted Li Ke on the shoulder and said, "Looking at your appearance, you must do well in the future."

Li Ke said: "After Mei Niang gave birth, it must be exhausting to stay in the mansion alone. Can you let the little son go to the palace to play often, and also add some excitement to Meiniang's side."

Li Shimin looked at Li Ke's pity for Xiao Si, and said: "If you want to make fun, Gao Yang is lively and mischievous, and Gao Yang can stand up to several others. There will be no shortage of people around you. You are worried about Xiao Si. Body."

Li Ke said: "Little Si is young and weak, and it is a disease brought out of the mother's womb. If it was fine in the past, but today, after what happened to the mother, the son is a little afraid. Although the palace is good, it is all used by the mother after all. I'm afraid that my son will be hurt if he gets sensible, so it's not suitable to stay in the Lizheng Palace for a long time."

Li Shimin nodded when he heard this, and said, "You are thoughtful and thoughtful, much better than the prince and Qingque. The empress entrusts you with the affairs of the afterlife, and you are also entrusted with it. This matter will be according to what you said. When Jin Yang grows up a little bit, you can often order people to come to the palace to pick her up to play in the palace, and you don't have to worry about Yushitai, no one dares to say right or wrong about this matter."

"No." Li Ke heard the words and immediately agreed.
