Although Li Yuanchang was a prince, he did not hold real power. Most of the people he could do was rely on for being reckless. There were many people who did not buy him openly or secretly.

Therefore, it is unlikely that Li Yuanchang would use the power of court officials, but Li Yuanchang has a greater help than any court official - Crown Prince Li Chengqian.

In terms of seniority, Li Yuanchang was the son of Li Yuan, while Li Chengqian was the grandson of Li Yuan. Li Yuanchang was considered Li Chengqian's uncle, but Li Yuanchang and Li Chengqian were born in the same year. The two were about the same age, and the difference was only a few months.

Perhaps it is because the two are not very different in age, and they are very close to each other.

Just the morning after Li Yuanchang met Ashinayun, Li Yuanchang felt itchy and rushed to the East Palace early in the morning.

"What's wrong with the little emperor today? Why did you come to the East Palace to see me early in the morning?" It was Li Chengqian's time to study. The maid from the East Palace suddenly reported that the King of Han asked for a meeting. Li Chengqian immediately ordered someone to take Li Yuanchang to his study and asked in confusion.

By generation, Li Yuanchang was Li Chengqian's uncle. Li Chengqian should be called the emperor's uncle, but according to the age, Li Yuanchang was three months younger than Li Chengqian, so Li Chengqian called Li Yuanchang "Little Emperor's uncle".

Li Chengqian called Li Yuanchang the emperor's uncle, but Li Yuanchang did not dare to make any big deal in front of Li Chengqian, especially now that Li Yuanchang still has something to ask for by Li Chengqian.

Li Yuanchang leaned over and said, "I have something important to invite you, and I hope the prince will help you."

When Li Yuanchang was young, he grew up with Li Chengqian. He had close friends and did not have so many rules to talk in private. There were no outsiders present at this time. Li Yuanchang suddenly gave a big gift and caught Li Chengqian off guard.

Li Chengqian hurriedly stepped forward and helped Li Yuanchang up and said, "I'm sorry, please get up quickly, if you have something to say, what's the point?"

Li Yuanchang said: "This matter is of great importance, and I hope the prince will not refuse."

Li Yuanchang's actions made Li Chengqian more and more confused, but Li Chengqian and Li Yuanchang have always had good friends, so they would not easily refuse his request.

Li Chengqian said: "Young uncle just asks for your words. If you are within the power of this palace, you should help me."

Li Yuanchang said: "I fell in love with a woman yesterday and wanted to welcome her into the mansion, but I didn't know how to speak, so I wanted to ask the prince for help."

After hearing Li Yuanchang's words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile and said, "I said what's going on? So that's it. The little prince is a good thing to be a good man. But I don't know which girl in the capital has liked him. If it's convenient, I'll ask my mother to come forward."

Li Chengqian's mother was the queen, and she was rarely familiar with the mistress of the powerful and noble family in Chang'an City. With the face of Empress Changsun and the wealth of Li Yuanchang's Han Mansion, how could there be a woman who could not be said to be?

However, Li Yuanchang thought about it, but looked embarrassed and said to Li Chengqian: "I'm afraid the queen may not be willing to come forward in this matter. The person who is attracted to me is not an ordinary woman."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he said strangely: "Oh? I wonder if it is the woman of the He family who can make the little emperor so concerned?"

Li Yuanchang paused and replied: "The daughter of Jie Li, Ashinayun."

"The daughter of Jie Li?" Li Chengqian summoned out in surprise after hearing Li Yuanchang's words.

Li Chengqian originally thought that Li Yuanchang was the little girl from a powerful family or a noble family, but he never expected it to be Ashinayun. Now Li Chengqian finally understood why Li Yuanchang was so cautious.

Jie Li was seriously ill and was in danger. Asunayun came from Yinshan to visit his father's illness. At this critical moment, he would not have the intention to talk about marriage.

Wouldn't it be a big deal to mention this matter at this time? Even Li Shimin would never agree.

What's more, Li Chengqian has another concern, that is Li Ke.

There is a rumor in Chang'an that Li Ke had similar interests with Ashinayun during the Turks and promised his life. Li Ke was impeached by a censor in the court for this. If he helped Li Yuanchang ask for Ashinayun, wouldn't he betray Li Ke?

Li Chengqian asked, "Do you know who Ashinayun is? When is now? Why do you have to commit crimes against Saburo for a woman?"

At this time, the time was not only wrong, but also the momentum of Li Ke who was in full swing for a woman was really unpaid.

But at this time, Li Yuanchang was already full of the shadow of Asano Yun, so he could not hear others' words.

Li Yuanchang said: "The King of Chu is just a concubine's son, and the crown prince is the eldest son. Sooner or later, the world belongs to the crown prince, so why should the crown prince be afraid of him?"

"I am not afraid of him, but this matter is quite inappropriate." Li Chengqian couldn't help but shake his head when he heard Li Yuanchang's words.

If you look at it carefully, Li Chengqian is not afraid of Li Ke. However, although Li Chengqian and Li Ke are competing secretly, they have not yet broken up on the surface. If they make enemies with Li Ke for a woman, Li Chengqian feels it is not worth it.

However, Li Yuanchang came prepared. Li Yuanchang said to Li Chengqian: "Although the King of Chu is a concubine, he is extremely favored by His Majesty and is restless. He is eyeing the position of the Eastern Palace. Can Your Highness watch the King of Chu become bigger?"

Li Chengqian listened to Li Yuanchang's words and looked puzzled.

Whether Li Yuanchang can marry Ashinayun has anything to do with Li Ke in the court?

Li Chengqian asked: "What does the little emperor mean?"

Li Yuanchang replied: "When King Chu was young, he was a member of the Turkic tribes, and he was very familiar with the leaders of the Turkic tribes and had a close relationship. If Jie Li left in the future, there would be no leader in the Turkic tribes, and there would definitely be many people in the Turkic tribes who surrendered to Li Ke. By then, Li Ke's power will naturally increase, and the prince will be threatened by then."

Li Ke stayed in the Turks for four years when he was a teenager. Li Ke’s advantage over the Turks was beyond the reach of anyone. The Turks who were officials in the capital had a lot of good relationships with Li Ke, which was exactly what Li Chengqian was worried about.

Li Chengqian asked: "The surrendered minister of the Turks is closer to the King of Chu, but what does it have to do with you marrying Ashinayun."

Li Yuanchang replied: "Ashinayun is Jie Li's legitimate daughter, and she is quite famous among the Turkic people. If I can marry Ashinayun, I can help the prince win over the surrendered Turkic ministers and separate Li Ke's power. Wouldn't it be a killing two birds with one stone?"

After hearing Li Yuanchang's words, Li Chengqian couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Although Li Chengqian is young now, he is no longer the well-behaved child who was studying. He has gradually started to come into contact with the court, taste the taste of power, and began to know who will be his future rival.

In Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty, although he was the crown prince of the Eastern Palace and the crown prince of the dynasty, he was more noble than ten thousand people, but in terms of reputation, he was far inferior to his third brother Li Ke. In the world, there were many people who knew that there was the King of Chu but not the crown prince. How could Li Chengqian feel at ease with Li Ke?

Although the Turks have lost their country, their strength is still huge. If Li Ke really can use the power of the Turks for his own use, it would be a headache for Li Chengqian.

Previously, Li Chengqian had no good plans to deal with Li Ke and suppress Li Ke's power, but now, from Li Yuanchang's mouth, Li Chengqian thought of a possibility.
