The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

How could Xiaopingan answer Li Ruoshuang's words?

Just seeing the smile on Li Ruoshuang's face, she started laughing too.

When Zhao Chen and the others returned to Zhao Mansion, Wei Zheng was already here.

It was already noon. Judging from the situation, Wei Zheng came here right after court and didn't even eat lunch.

Old Wei, Zhao Chen greeted Wei Zheng. ??

Li Ruoshuang bowed to Wei Zheng and then returned to the room holding the sleeping Xiao Ping An.

Wei Zheng sat in front of Zhao Chen, his mood seemed a little low.

What's wrong? Zhao Chen looked at Wei Zheng, pretending that he didn't understand why Wei Zheng was like this.

Wei Zheng took the tea cup in front of him and took a sip of tea. Then he stared into Zhao Chen's eyes and said slowly: Have you forgotten how Li Tai treated you?

At the court meeting just now, only Zhao Chen supported Wei Zheng's suggestion and forced the emperor to kill Li Tai.

Coupled with the support of other officials, Li Tai will definitely not escape death penalty today.

But unfortunately, Zhao Chen actually chose to decide Li Tai's life or death with a copper coin.

What Wei Zheng didn't understand even more was that Zhao Chen didn't operate the copper coin himself, but instead asked an ignorant little girl to do it.

If Zhao Chen had thrown the copper coin himself, Wei Zheng believed that Li Tai would still die if Zhao Chen wanted to.

But the result...

Wei Zheng understood that Zhao Chen just didn't want Li Tai to die.

Otherwise, how could so many things happen!

Of course I won't forget those things. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

How could he forget how Li Tai treated him?

If I had been a little negligent, grass would probably have grown on the graves by now.

Based on Zhao Chen's own thoughts, of course he wanted to kill Li Tai directly.

But what happens after Li Tai dies?

Can Queen Changsun bear the pain of losing her son?

No matter how generous the emperor is, if he doesn't pursue Li Tai's matter with him, then he won't pursue Wei Zheng and the others?

The emperor will only remember that it was Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling who caused Li Tai to lose his life. \u003c

br\u003e

Wei Zheng's life will definitely not be easy by then.

Maybe the emperor would find an excuse to drive out of Chang'an at some point.

Wei Zheng and the others are old, and the most important thing is to keep their reputation safely.

Furthermore, sparing Li Tai's life can also save the face of Lao Li Tou and Empress Changsun.

This is a way to make everyone feel comfortable and save face.

But Li Tai is the prince after all. Killing him will not be good for me in the future...

Zhao Chen, are you just thinking about your future?

Why are you like this now?

In the past, you never cared about yourself.

I originally thought that you and I have the same character and can sacrifice everything for justice, but I didn't expect...

I really misjudged you! Wei Zheng suddenly interrupted Zhao Chen forcefully.

His face was full of anger.

The slightly trembling fingers clearly showed how angry Wei Zheng was now.

Zhao Chen didn't speak, just drank the tea in the cup quietly.

Wei Zheng's face trembled with anger, he pointed at Zhao Chen and shouted: After today, you and I will cut off our robes and sever our ties and take our leave.

Wei Zheng pulled off a corner of his robe, threw it to the ground, turned around and left.

Zhao Chen sat where he was and didn't move at all.

…

As soon as Wei Zheng left, Wu Jue walked out from behind the rockery.

He picked up the corner of Wei Zheng's robe that he had just torn off and placed it on the table in front of Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen, you didn't want His Majesty to anger Wei Zheng and the others, so you didn't force His Majesty to execute Li Tai. Wu Jue looked into Zhao Chen's eyes and asked in a low voice.

Zhao Chen looked at Wu Jue.

Wu Jue understood what Wei Zheng didn't expect.

But obviously Zhao Chen doesn’t want to be with Wu Jue

Let’s talk about this again.

This matter has nothing to do with you, don't ask about it. Zhao Chen's cold tone made Wu Jue very irritated.

He grabbed the tea cup in front of Zhao Chen, smashed it on the ground, and cursed: You deserve it.

After saying that, Wu Jue turned around and left angrily.

Zhao Chen was not annoyed, he stood up and wanted to go out, but when he turned around, he saw Lao Li Tou had entered the yard at some point.

What are you doing here? Zhao Chen asked, his tone somewhat displeased.

Of course I'm here to thank you. Old Li Tou walked up to Zhao Chen and opened his palms.

In the palm of his hand was a copper coin, the same coin that was used to decide Li Tai's life or death at the morning meeting.

No, you have to thank me. You should also thank my little girl. If it weren't for her, Li Tai would be dead today. Zhao Chen turned around and sat on the stool, his tone was rather unkind.

Old Li Tou was not annoyed at all. ??

Only he knows why God favored Li Tai so much today.

Sitting down in front of Zhao Chen, Old Li Tou put the copper coins in his hand on the table.

This copper coin is the same regardless of the front or back. They only have one side without words.

That kid Li Tai, I owe you a life. Old Li Tou took the copper coin over.

It was exactly the same as before.

This is the wrong coin.

There is no writing on either side.

So when Zhao Chen said that Li Tai could live as long as the wordless side was facing up, Li Tai's life had already been saved.

No matter how you throw it, the side facing up is always wordless.

Old Li Tou didn't know all this until he got the copper coins in his hands.

I'm just afraid that you'll cause trouble for me. Zhao Chen said calmly, without any surprised expression on his face.

There was a smile on Lao Li's head and face.

Would Zhao Chen be afraid that he would cause trouble for him?

In the past few years, the emperor has never seen Zhao Chen look scared.

\u003c

br\u003e As an emperor, he was not afraid of Zhao Chen at all.

On the contrary, he, Li Shimin, would feel slightly frightened from time to time in front of Zhao Chen.

When I came over just now, I saw that old guy Wei Zheng leaving angrily.

He was still cursing that he had seen the wrong person.

You didn't tell him the truth. Old Li looked at Zhao Chen and sighed in his heart.

Old Li Tou himself also knew that Wei Zheng had greatly offended him by forcing him to kill Li Tai.

If Zhao Chen also followed Wei Zheng's suggestion.

What is certain is that Li Tai will definitely die.

But then...

He, the emperor, was forced to kill his own son. Even if he would not deal with Zhao Chen again, what about Wei Zheng?

Can Li Shimin let Wei Zheng go?

Obviously impossible.

Only a fatuous and incompetent emperor would be forced by his ministers to kill his own prince.

Even if this prince committed something treasonous and unethical.

If Li Tai dies, no matter whether Li Shimin wants it or not, Wei Zheng and the other officials who force him to kill Li Tai will definitely not end well.

Old Li Tou knew that Zhao Chen must have thought of this, so he chose to use some means to save Li Tai's life.

Otherwise, given how many times Li Tai sent people to assassinate Zhao Chen, how could Li Tai have saved his life.

But it is obvious that only Li Shimin can think of these things at present.

The rest of the people only thought that Zhao Chen was compromising with himself as the emperor for his own benefit.

To be honest, I never expected that when I took out a copper coin, there would be no words on both sides.

If I had known this, I would have killed him if I said nothing.

This way he will be dead. Zhao Chen did not acknowledge what Old Li Tou said, but said unceremoniously that he wished Li Tai would die.

Old Li smiled and did not take Zhao Chen's words to heart.
