Chapter 52: Changle to the East Palace
Changsun Wuji sat down dejectedly with a dull look on his face.

He was already sweating coldly on his back.

I just feel cold all over.

Because he stepped out of his own cognitive thinking and found that everything his uncle said was to the point.

Chang Sun Chong was incredulous, as if he had heard something shocking. He said blankly, "Uncle, is it really that bad?"

"It's not that it's bad, it's that the prince has forced your father into a corner."

Gao Shilian didn't know how things had come to this, so he patiently said, "Either you support the prince, or you become the sword of His Majesty, and propose to depose the prince, becoming a sinner in the world."

"What if Your Majesty has no intention of deposing or enthroning the emperor?" Chang Sun Chong asked.

"Your father was able to escape this time, but when the crown prince takes the throne, will Gao Ming not settle accounts with him?"

Gao Shilian said it very bluntly.

Do not depose the crown prince.

Then your father should be even more supportive and stand on the side of the prince.

Don't you want to support it?
The prince has used such cruel means to force you, and you are still hesitating.

After coming to power, the methods he used were no longer cruel. He would probably just find an excuse to depose the person.

He could think that the prince clearly had an uncle who could give him support, who should support him the most, who should stand by him the most, and who could relieve his pressure the most.

As a result, he had to go through hardships alone, overcome numerous dangers, and suffer unimaginable setbacks to get to the top.

It is conceivable how much resentment and resentment he had towards Changsun Wuji.

Chang Sun Chong said, "So, there is no other way for Aye."

"But why is it Aye?"

"Your father has not expressed his opinion and supports the system of primogeniture. This is how the people of the world see it, and it is also how Your Majesty sees it."

Gao Shilian said: "In this case, if you don't need to propose the dethronement of the crown prince, who is more suitable to do it?"

"Only you, Aye, are the most suitable."

"me."

Chang Sun Chong was a little flustered. He knelt down hurriedly, crawled to Chang Sun Wuji, and said, "Father, it's my fault."

"I was confused for a moment, I..."

He slapped himself a few times. He was going to stay indoors anyway, so a few more handprints didn't matter.

Zhang Sun Wuji grabbed Zhang Sun Chong's hand that was fanning him and ordered in a deep voice, "Go back."

"Take Princess Changle to the East Palace."

"In half a month, the East Palace will talk about 'etiquette', and you will serve the Crown Prince."

"Remember, you must get the Crown Prince's consent."

"Also, let Princess Changle talk to the Crown Prince more often."

Gao Shilian knew that Changsun Wuji had made the decision.

He couldn't help but admire it.

My nephew is so decisive. Once he wakes up, he will act immediately without any hesitation.

He was the same during the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

"Assistant, Dalang is not fit to go. He still has a wound on his face. It will be hard to explain if the prince asks about it."

Gao Shilian reminded, "Let the princess go first, and wait until Dalang's face recovers before going over."

Changsun Wuji slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot about this."

"I'm a little confused."

"Don't go yet. Let the princess go to the East Palace to meet the prince first."

"My child understands."

Chang Sun Chong left quickly, and Chang Sun Wuji said sternly: "Uncle, thank you for your reminder."

"I still have things to do in the mansion."

"Remember, the affairs of the mansion must not be leaked out. Don't be soft-hearted."

"I know."

Chang Sun rushed back, found Princess Changle Li Lizhi, and told her everything.

"Aye must make it clear that he supports the prince."

"You go to the East Palace first..."

Li Lizhi frowned and asked, "What's wrong with your face?"

"Don't worry about it. Anyway, I can't go out these two days. You go to the East Palace first, and I will go later."

Chang Sun Chong also felt anxious.

"It's not possible today. Let's go tomorrow."

"I will send someone to the East Palace to deliver the visiting card first."

Li Li asked, "I can't be so rude." "Okay, anything is fine."

……

East Palace.

Li Chengqian held the visiting card with some amusement.

This old fox ordered the beautiful girl here, should he stand or not?

"do not care."

"We'll see tomorrow."

The next day.

Li Lizhi came to the Eastern Palace with great fanfare.

"Greetings, Brother Crown Prince."

"Lizhi, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why don't you come to the East Palace for a walk?"

Li Chengqian laughed and said, "Have you forgotten your natal family now that you have your ex-family?"

Li Lizhi discovered that her elder brother had really changed a lot.

I never joked with her like this before, and I wasn't this cheerful and outgoing.

She said angrily, "Brother, are you blaming me for teaching you a lesson and not coming to visit you?"

"You're just talking about something else, aren't you?"

Li Chengqian didn't care and said, "Sit down."

The eunuch showed the tea, Li Lizhi took a sip and immediately said, "Brother, why don't you send me a portion of this good stuff?"

"Haha, I'll give it to you later, I'll give it to you later."

"Thank you, brother."

Li Lizhi then got down to business and said, "Brother, I heard that in half a month, you will set up an altar in the East Palace and invite all the scholars of etiquette from all over the world to talk about 'etiquette'."

"That's what happened." Li Chengqian nodded, "What's wrong?"

"Look, my husband is also a polite person. After hearing about this, he was very excited and couldn't sleep day and night." Li Lizhi said, "Brother, can you give him a chance and let him come to the East Palace?"

Li Chengqian paused. His excitement might be fake, but his sleepless nights might be real. He asked, "Is it you who said that, or your cousin?"

"It was his idea."

Li Lizhi replied.

understood.

Chang Sun Chong’s idea meant the approval of his step-uncle.

otherwise.

Chang Sun Chong didn't have the courage to do that.

"Why didn't Dalang come?"

Li Chengqian suddenly asked.

"Da Lang is feeling a little unwell and needs to rest for two days. When he is better, he will come to thank you for your kindness." Li Lizhi said coquettishly, "Brother, is that ok?"

Li Chengqian wondered why Chang Sun Chong didn't come in person.

Li Lizhi's words cannot be fully believed.

He couldn't tell whether Chang Sun Chong was afraid that he would be embarrassed if he didn't agree, or if he had something else to do.

No matter what, Li Lizhi's arrival made my step uncle give in.

Hearing Li Lizhi's coquettishness, Li Chengqian smiled and said, "We are one family, so we don't have to talk about different things."

"Since Dalang wants to come, let him sit next to me, listen to the lecture together, and discuss it at the same time."

The eldest son of the Changsun family sat beside the Crown Prince and listened to the "ritual".

This is a very clear signal.

This was Li Chengqian’s intention.

As long as Changsun Chong appears, there is basically no room for Changsun Wuji to make changes.

"That's great." Li Lizhi shouted happily.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's pressure was finally relieved.

It seems that the cheap uncle is really determined, otherwise, Li Lizhi would not agree so readily.

He finally found a breakthrough in the dilemma he was facing.

"Thank you, Brother Prince."

Li Chengqian said, "Lizhi, you tasted the tea from the East Palace just now."

"Are you short of money in the Changsun family?"
