Chapter 2016 Li Tai’s warning.
As the saying goes, beauty is in the eyes of a lover, but shit is in the eyes of an enemy.
In Li Zhi's eyes, everything Li Shen did was wrong and lawless.
"Chi Nu, do you think that as the tenth brother, I still need to use money to build connections?" Li Tai shook his head helplessly.
"The notoriety of the Tenth Master has long been known throughout the officialdom, and no one, whether officials or nobles, is not afraid of him.
If he goes to report to the authorities, which official won't give him some face?
They were afraid that the Tenth Master would retaliate against them when he was dissatisfied. With the Tenth Master's current status, if he just said a few words to Aye, even a governor would be affected.
Just think about how embarrassing it would be if those clothes without secret marks were bought by nobles and then discovered by their colleagues.
They will probably become the laughing stock of the aristocratic circle from now on. How could these nobles who bought fake goods let them off easily?
This is where Lao Shi is most brilliant.”
"Hmph, just some strange tricks." Li Zhi snorted in dissatisfaction.
His attitude made Li Tai feel helpless.
"Chi Nu, this is not some gimmick, this is talent. Lao Shi is indeed talented in business.
We should learn from each other's strengths and overcome our weaknesses, and not blindly criticize a person or a thing.
Since Lao Shi is talented in this area, we should learn from him. There is always a teacher among three people.
You didn't do this. You looked at everything about Li Shen with prejudice, and the result was also prejudice. Do you understand?"
As the elder brother, Li Taijue had to start educating Li Zhi. Every time it came to Li Shen, Li Zhi became a little impulsive.
Li Tai even suspected that it was the first time that Li Shen hit him on the head and made him stupid.
"Fourth brother is telling you that I was a little impulsive. But didn't you have a bad relationship with Li Shen before? Why do you admire him so much now?"
Li Zhi looked at Li Tai with some confusion. To be honest, both of them had grudges against Li Shen. Li Tai was the first to have a grudge against Li Shen, and the grudge was not small.
When Li Tai was fighting for the position, he was repeatedly sabotaged by Li Shen. He even pulled Li Chengqian back when Li Chengqian was on the verge of decline.
Otherwise, the throne would most likely belong to Li Tai.
Li Zhi didn't understand why Li Tai no longer hated Li Shen.
According to his thinking, Li Tai should hate Li Shen to the core, so why does he seem to admire him now?
Li Tai smiled lightly:
"Haha, Chi Nu, although Lao Shi and I are not born from the same mother, we are still brothers after all. I did not get along well with Lao Shi in the past.
However, I have been cultivating myself in the palace over the years and have also learned some truths.
Lao Shi is a talented person. Since he is talented, we should learn from him.
No one in this world has a smooth life. Encountering difficulties is nothing. As long as we don’t give up and keep working hard, we will achieve our wishes one day.
By then we will be able to soar into the sky, and looking back, all the previous experiences are the cornerstone of your success.
People need to look forward.”
"Look forward." Li Zhi was stunned by what Li Tai said and fell into deep thought.
A bright future is ahead of us. Not afraid of hardships, Li Zhi's eyes gradually became more brilliant.
"Thank you for your teachings, Fourth Brother."
"Haha, this is not a teaching at all, it is just the experience gained from self-cultivation and meditation over the years.
I hope you can be like me and study hard at home instead of thinking about that position.
It's too late to fight now.
It would be better for you to do nothing like me, wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne, and see how he arranges us.
It means just going to a place to be a governor."
Li Tai laughed loudly. But everyone could tell that what he said was so plain.
Li Zhi frowned even more deeply. He felt that Li Tai might have a brain disease and his temperament had changed drastically.
None of the princes wanted to go to their fiefdoms, as Chang'an City was so colorful and beautiful. Even if their fiefdoms were rich, they could not compare to the lights and feasting of Chang'an City.
What's more, this is the capital, the country's power center.
"Fourth brother, are you really willing to go to the fiefdom? Anyway, I am not willing to go to the fiefdom." Li Zhi asked.
"So what if you are unwilling? This is our ancestral teaching. Do you still want to fight for it?" Li Tai asked back.
Li Zhi shook his head:
"As Fourth Brother said, there is no chance now, so I won't waste my time. I just can't bear to leave this place.
I will also follow Fourth Brother's teachings and concentrate on studying in the palace. Perhaps I will be able to assist Big Brother in the future."
"That's great, but I still have to warn you, don't provoke Old Ten again, you can't beat him.
The Tenth Master is ruthless and rich, you are no match for him.
Why can't we just live in peace and lead a life of luxury and extravagance like him?"
Li Tai nodded with satisfaction and gave an earnest warning, which seemed to be entirely for your own good.
Li Zhi immediately stood up and saluted:
"Yes, I thank you for your advice, Brother. I will pay attention to it. It's getting late, so I will take my leave now."
After hearing this, Li Tai also stood up and prepared to see him off.
The two walked out of the Prince of Wei's mansion side by side. Just as Li Zhi was about to get on the carriage, Li Tai spoke:
"Chi Nu, I want to go to Cuiwei Palace to visit my mother tomorrow. Please come with me."
Li Zhi thought about it and nodded:
"Okay, it's been a while since I last paid my respects to mother. I'll go talk to my fourth brother tomorrow."
After saying this, Li Zhi clasped his fists and saluted, then got on the carriage.
Watching Li Zhi's carriage slowly going away, Li Tai smiled and turned back to his study.
At this moment, there was one more person in the study, it was Du Chuke, the chief secretary of the Prince of Wei's Palace.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Du Chuke bowed first.
"Well, sit down." Li Tai sat down and pointed at the chair.
"Your Highness, will Prince Ji find out anything when he goes to Anxi?" Du Chuke asked after sitting down.
"Haha, even if it is found out, it has nothing to do with us. What is there to worry about? Haven't you dealt with it cleanly?" Li Tai laughed and said nonchalantly.
"I have dealt with the matter. After thinking about it several times, I didn't find anything wrong. However, I am still a little worried.
With the intelligence of Prince Ji's Mansion, it is very likely that they will find some clues, but we are afraid that they will find out something that is disadvantageous to us."
Du Chuke said with some concern.
"You don't have to worry. Old Ten may be fine, because I think Old Ten probably knows everything."
"You know everything? Could it be that even our...His Royal Highness Prince Ji knows it?" Du Chuke was a little shocked when he heard Li Tai's words.
"No, Old Ten probably doesn't know about us yet. What I'm saying is that he already knows who is behind the events in Xizhou."
