    "Third brother, we haven't seen each other for a few days, and it's almost time to eat. Why don't we go to my little brother's house and have a drink?"

    Neither Li Tai nor Li Ke stayed in the Kong Mansion for long. After all, they were only here to visit Kong Yingda in name.  ¡è:¡è Therefore, it was just a pleasantries between host and guest, and Li Tai and Li Ke left together on the grounds that they would not disturb Kong Yingda's rest.  However, except at the door of Confucius Mansion, Li Tai extended an invitation to Li Ke with a cordial face.

    "Haha, it's true that we two brothers haven't had time to have a good drink, so we went to the fourth brother's house to make trouble. I just hope that the fourth brother won't blame me for coming to your place to have a meal, haha."

    Hearing Li Tai¡¯s invitation to him, Li Ke was stunned for a moment, then immediately agreed with a happy face.

    "Third brother is joking, then third brother invites you"

    Seeing that Li Ke really agreed to his invitation, the two of them immediately looked at each other and smiled.  If people who don't know see this scene, they will definitely sigh that the relationship between these two brothers is really good.  It's just that everyone who understands knows that these two people are very different from each other on weekdays. They are just harmonious on the surface, but privately they are incompatible with each other.

    However, everything is not static.  Especially for people like them, there are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in this world, only eternal interests.  Since they met unexpectedly in the Confucius Mansion, it meant that the two of them wanted to get together.

    After returning to the palace, Li Tai immediately asked people to arrange food and drinks. It didn't take long for the two of them to face each other and start drinking together.  However, after only drinking a little bit, both of them put down their glasses.

    "Third brother, you should have heard about what happened in the Taiji Hall today. Speaking of which, our uncle, the Fourth Emperor, is good at everything, but his temper is a bit too fiery. Look at what happened.  Mr. Kong is very angry. As a junior, I really don¡¯t know what to say.¡±

    Seeing Li Ke sitting there without speaking, Li Tai seemed to casually talk about what happened in the court today.  Immediately, he made a look of embarrassment on his face.

    "Hey, my fourth uncle's temper is like that. Everything is straightforward. However, this makes my father a little embarrassed. After all, Master Kong is a great scholar who is famous all over the world. It's me.  To be honest, I am also troubled by this matter."

    Li Ke knew that this was a prelude to Li Tai's main theme, but Li Tai didn't explain it all at once, so he could only follow along and answer speciously.

    "That's right. On one side are our elders. On the other side is the gentleman whom we and other scholars respect. It's really embarrassing. Therefore, I can only be a little polite today. I came to see Master Kong. Just  I hope nothing happens again in this matter.¡±

    "An accident? Well, fourth brother, what do you think will happen in this matter?"

    After listening to Li Tai¡¯s words, Li Ke suddenly became serious.  Because, he knows.  The other party will definitely get down to business next.  However, his face still had a plain and slightly curious look.

    "No, I'm just a little worried. Tell me, Mr. Kong has such a high reputation in the hearts of scholars, but he has encountered such a thing. I'm really worried that those who don't know the inside story will do something extraordinary on impulse.  When things happen, it won¡¯t be easy to handle. Then, won¡¯t it make my father even more embarrassed?¡±

    Seeing Li Ke pretending to be crazy and sitting on the Diaoyutai, Li Tai felt hatred in his heart.  However, at this moment, he could only endure it.  Because, the situation we will face next is really too complicated and too severe.  He is now in desperate need of a partner.

    It was true that he was anxious, but he knew that Li Ke, who was opposite him, was also anxious.  Now the position of the one in the East Palace is getting more and more stable.  If this continues, there will be no chance for these people.  And anyone who is interested in this will definitely be anxious.

    Of course Li Tai is interested in that position, and it can even be said that he is determined to win it.  Likewise, he also believed that the person sitting opposite him was the same.

    Logically speaking, the two of them are also in a competitive relationship, so they should be like fire and water.  Indeed, in the past, it was so true.  However, the situation then was different from now.  At that time, the prince was extremely naughty and ridiculous. Everyone could see that if the situation continued, it would be a matter of time before the emperor abolished the prince and established a new one.

    ??And when it comes to setting up a new reserve, the most promising ones are two people.  One is Li Tai, and the other one is, of course, Li Ke.  It can be said that the two people were the biggest competitors at that time.

    However, with the appearance of Li Feng, things took a turn for the worse.A ten-degree change.  The emperor's attitude towards the prince made a 180-degree turn. In addition, Li Chengqian did several exciting things.  It made many ministers look at the prince with admiration.

    ¡°Moreover, even if the prince made any mistakes, the emperor turned a blind eye.  For example, what happened at the last poetry meeting, it stands to reason that Li Chengqian's behavior would have completely disgraced the royal family.  However, in the end, Li Shimin acted as if nothing happened.

    "If it were in the past, it would be strange for the emperor to be furious if something like this happened.

    After such a weird thing happened, while Li Tai secretly scolded Li Shimin for being partial, he also calmed down and thought about telling the prince everything that happened.  As he calmed down and thought slowly, he discovered that although the prince was indeed much better than before, at least he was no longer as messy as before.  However, in Li Tai's view, even the prince's current virtue is still far from enough.

    However, such a huge contrasting result happened, which is really puzzling.  Until the end, he finally figured out that the reason why all of this happened was actually related to the brave king whom he looked down on very much.  Behind the transformation of the prince and everything related to Prince Yu, there was actually the shadow of that person.

    And, as he thought about it calmly, he finally realized that he was wrong, and how wrong he was.  In the past, he always looked at the Fourth Emperor Uncle based on his superficial appearance.  A long time ago, he had decided in his heart that he was just a foolhardy and lazy person, who had nothing to offer except brute force.

    It is precisely because of this that he has always regarded this fourth uncle with contempt, or even contempt, in his heart, so he has never had any contact with him.  However, if you think about it carefully, it is not the case.  This uncle of the Fourth Emperor actually turned out to be a character pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

    "Look at everything he does, doesn't everything show that amazing ability?"  What is even more frightening is that although the fourth uncle has no power or position, his status in the army has soared to the sky since the battle of Dingxiang.  He became the idol of all soldiers.  Especially people like Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others are a bit self-indulgent.

    This was not what frightened Li Tai the most. What frightened him the most was that the emperor showed incredible trust in this brave king, and could even be said to be excessively tolerant.  Although I don't know why this is, it is an extremely sad thing for Li Tai.  Because everyone knows the relationship between the prince and the brave king.

    Originally, the power behind the prince was extremely powerful. In addition, he was the legitimate heir and the eldest son, so he had every advantage.  Now coupled with the support of this enigmatic Fourth Emperor Uncle, the result

    This is also the reason why he invited Li Ke to his home for a drink. Similarly, it is also the reason why Li Ke accepted the invitation so happily.

    "Wellit's true. If this matter gets bigger, it will really make my father very embarrassed. However, the fourth uncle's temper is like this. It's very difficult to make him regress."

    At this time, Li Ke also understood what Li Tai had in mind.  Therefore, after thinking for a while, he spoke slowly.

    "Compared to Li Tailai, he has a deeper understanding of Li Feng's important role, and he also understands the importance of this fourth uncle in the emperor's heart.  It's not that he hasn't thought about winning over this fourth uncle. Not only has he thought about it, but he has also been working hard for it.  However, for some reason, this fourth uncle was always as indifferent to him as water.  However, he was surprisingly close to the eldest brother, the prince.

    This made him confused and helpless.  However, now that the matter has come to this, he has to make up his mind and make a choice.

    In fact, what¡¯s more in his heart is unwillingness and lamenting the injustice of this world.  In terms of ability, character, and wisdom, no matter what, he thought he was hundreds of times better than his elder brother, the prince.  What's more, he knew that the eldest brother, the prince, had no interest in the throne.

    "However, the world is so unfair.  Things that Li Chengqian didn't want were forced on him, even if he didn't want them.  However, Li Ke even dreamed of getting it, but it was getting further and further away from him.

    ¡°If God doesn¡¯t give it to you, you take it yourself. This is what Li Ke is thinking now.

    If you want to get the throne, the first thing you need to do is to unseat the prince Li Chengqian.  And it is not an easy task to bring down the prince.  Because the support behind him is really too great.  You must first clip its wings and do it step by step.

    "In Li Ke's view, Li Chengqian's biggest support is not his mother who is the queen, let aloneThat uncle, Changsun Wuji, was the seemingly useless fourth uncle.  Because that person's influence on the emperor was really great.  In this case, I just took advantage of this opportunity to remove this stumbling block.

    ¡°What you can¡¯t get, others can¡¯t even imagine.

    "Haha, the three of you are really thoughtful people. Come on, third brother, I'll give you a toast. Maybe we two brothers should work together to help our father solve his problems, right?"

    ??We are all understanding people, and by saying this, the goal has been achieved.  Therefore, when Li Tai heard what Li Ke said, he immediately burst into laughter, raised his glass and toasted to Li Ke.

    "Fourth brother, please"

    Similarly, Li Ke also picked up the wine glass with a smile on his face.
