Chapter 52: Summoning the second daughter of Duke Ying to the palace for an audience!



"This..." Faced with this question, Li Haoze remained silent.

Although according to historical records, Li Chengqian and Li Tai both seemed to have died of illness.

But they were all only around 30 years old, and died suddenly of illness in the prime of their lives, which inevitably made things strange.

Of course, this does not mean that their deaths were all caused by Li Zhi. It could also be Zhangsun Wuji, or they might have died of illness.

After all, when Li Chengqian died, Li Shimin was still alive, so it was impossible not to conduct a thorough investigation.

Li Haoze pondered for a moment, organized his words, and slowly said, "At least on the surface, it shouldn't be."

"Besides, if Li Zhi becomes emperor, he can at least govern the Tang Dynasty well..."

"Not only did they destroy Goguryeo and bring the Tang Dynasty's territory to its peak, but they also achieved considerable success in culture and economy."

"More importantly, he has a gentler personality and is more likely to get along well with his brothers than Li Chengqian and Li Tai."

"Destroyed Goguryeo?!!" When Li Lizhi heard this, the balance in her heart instantly tilted.

Goguryeo has always been a major concern for the Tang Dynasty, like a sword hanging over the bed.

If Zhinu can really eliminate this threat, it will undoubtedly bring long-term stability to the Tang Dynasty.

"What if Gao Ming and Qing Que became emperors?" Li Lizhi continued to ask.

"This..." Later official history records that Li Zhi became emperor.

How could Li Haoze know what would happen if Li Chengqian and Li Tai became emperors?

Li Haoze simply spread his hands and said, "Let's go to Buji Island~~"

Seeing that Li Lizhi's delicate hands were ready to move, Li Haoze quickly hugged her in his arms and added.

"Sister, the last time I saw the secrets of heaven was when Li Zhi became emperor. Later, I confused the secrets of heaven in order to change the fate of mother and Sizi."

"Now the secret of heaven can be discovered!" Anyway, they mistakenly thought they were some kind of divine beasts.

Then just lead it directly to the secret of heaven, after all it will be able to make sense.

"This..." Li Lizhi was silent, "Then..."

After a moment, he continued, "In your prediction of the destiny, what is the fate of my sister's relatives?"

"Tell me everything you know in your little head without reservation!"

As she spoke, Li Lizhi rubbed the "little princess's" head again, picked her up and kissed her on each of her little cheeks.

Apparently, that's the reward.

Happiness comes too suddenly.

Besides, Li Haoze had already told Li Shimin and the others, so he didn't care if one more person knew about it.

So he began to speak in more detail.

"In the original destiny, Erfeng would become a great emperor, and his achievements would be remembered by future generations.

But his later years will be somewhat desolate, as his sons will fight endlessly for the throne..."

Li Haoze chose his words carefully, trying not to sound too cruel.

"Da Lang, also known as Crown Prince Li Chengqian, originally had the potential to inherit the throne.

However, due to his misunderstanding of the Emperor and his own pressure, he eventually embarked on the path of rebellion.

The result was naturally failure. He was demoted to a commoner, exiled to the frontier, and died of illness in the 19th year of Zhenguan.

When Li Lizhi heard this, her face turned pale instantly.

"That's impossible. With my mother here, how could Dalang possibly rebel?"

"How could there be a prince who would rebel in this world?"

"Isn't this the biggest joke in the world?"

"Could it be..." Li Lizhi suddenly had an ominous guess in her mind.

Li Haoze nodded helplessly, "Yes, the Empress did it in the tenth year of Zhenguan, which is four years later.

Due to excessive childbearing, her body was weakened, and she suffered from a wind disease that invaded her internal organs, and she died in Lizheng Palace."

"Mother!" Li Lizhi was instantly heartbroken, tears streaming down her face, and she hugged the "little princess" and cried bitterly.

"Hey, hey, hey~ Sister, don't cry. I'm here. Mother's fate has long been changed."

"As long as Empress Changsun doesn't have any more children, living another three to five years won't be a problem."

"With proper care, I can live another ten or eight years without any problem... Woo... Woo..."

Li Lizhi smiled sweetly, "Little Rangjun, it's great to have you. This is a reward from your sister..."

"What happened next? Keep telling me!"

Li Haoze licked his lips and said, "Uh... it seems my sister also died of illness in the 17th year of Zhenguan when Li Chengqian was plotting a rebellion."

"As for the reason..." There is no record in historical materials, so Li Haoze can only make it up himself.

"Having been childless for years, she was depressed and unhappy. Furthermore, she was traumatized by Li Chengqian's rebellion, and she also had a rheumatism inherited from Empress Changsun..."

After all, considering how much Li Lizhi cared about everyone, she was quite shocked when she heard that the prince was plotting a rebellion.

This is definitely one of the reasons for his death, there is no way around it.

"Go on!" Li Lizhi's reaction to her own death was rather calm.

"Silang Li Tai, after the Crown Prince's rebellion, originally had a great chance to inherit the throne.

However, his arrogance and flamboyance caused tension between him and the ministers in the court.

More importantly, his desire for the throne was too strong.

So much so that when the old emperor was still alive, he couldn't help but start making secret plans.

As a result, he angered His Majesty and was exiled to a remote place.

Later, he became depressed and frustrated, and drank all day to drown his sorrows. He died of illness in the third year of the Yonghui reign at the age of 32.

Li Lizhi frowned upon hearing this, "Qingque... is he so unbearable?"

Muttering to herself, she continued to ask, "Yonghui should be Zhinu's reign title, right?"
