Chapter 702 Li Xiu's Problem

Li Ke's background is very special. His father is His Majesty today, but his mother is the princess of the former Sui Dynasty. In terms of bloodline, only his younger brother can compare with him. But as the saying goes, success is Xiao He and failure is Xiao He. If Li Ke wants to ascend the throne, the biggest obstacle also comes from his bloodline.

When Yang Guang was in chaos in politics, he caused chaos in the world. Most of the population of the former Sui Dynasty died in wars, which made almost all the people in the world very disgusted with the former Sui Dynasty. In particular, Yang Guang became one of the recognized great tyrants in history, and half of Li Ke's blood came from Yang Guang, so he could almost be said to have no chance of the throne in his life.

Although Li Ke is young, he is more precocious than his peers. He is very clear about the above. If he is an ordinary person, he may face ridicule and accusations from everyone around him. Because he has a tyrant grandfather, he is a noble prince, so no one dares to disrespect him. Instead, Yang Guang becomes a taboo in Li Ke's life. Except for his mother, Concubine Yang, no one dares to mention Yang Guang in front of him, let alone ask him what he thinks of Yang Guang like Li Xiu?

Li Xiu also knew that no one had asked Li Ke like him, but he asked it out, because from the very beginning, he felt that Li Ke was good at hiding his true thoughts, and sometimes he couldn't even figure it out, which made him feel very unhappy, so he asked such a sensitive topic and planned to see what Li Ke's reaction was.

Sure enough, when Li Ke heard Li Xiu's question, his face became a little ugly and even annoyed, because in his opinion, Li Xiu asked him what he thought of Yang Guang was like humiliating him, but Li Xiu had a good impression of him before, and even felt that Li Xiu understood him more than his father and was very tolerant of him, so in the end he suppressed the anger in his heart, but did not answer this question.

Seeing Li Ke's angry look, Li Xiu smiled calmly and continued: "Why, is this problem difficult?"

"What are the answers to this kind of question? Who doesn't know that Yang Guang is a tyrant?" Li Ke was finally furious by Li Xiu's frivolous tone. He yelled angrily. Fortunately, except for the two of them, there were only two children, Jin'er and Ping'anlang. They were younger and did not understand what Li Ke said at all.

"If you just treat your grandfather as a tyrant, that would disappoint me!" Facing the angry Li Ke, Li Xiu slowly shook his head, and said with a look of disappointment on his face.

"What does it mean?" Li Ke couldn't help but feel shocked when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then looked at him with an incredible look on his face.

"It's not interesting. Since you are a student of Xinzhu Academy, I can barely be considered a teacher at Xinzhu Academy. Now I will give you a question to find the advantages and disadvantages of your grandfather, and then compare it with your father. I will give it to me in a few days. If it cannot be completed, I will let Tian Chou remove you from the school!" Li Xiu said with a stern face at this time.

When Li Xiu heard this strange request, Li Ke was even more puzzled. He was about to ask again, but at this time they had already arrived at Shangguan Yi's house, and the auspicious time had arrived, and these guests were immediately invited into the house to witness the wedding ceremony of Shangguan Yi and Hen'er.

Originally, Shangguan Yi was just a poor boy. Although he had saved some money in Chang'an for a few years, the housing prices in Chang'an were not worse than those in Beijing and Shanghai in later generations, so he was not able to buy a house at all. Fortunately, Hen'er was not short of money, so Ma had already given Shangguan Yi a big house. Originally, Shangguan Yi was unwilling to accept it because of his self-esteem, so Li Xiu personally persuaded him, so the wedding of Shangguan Yi and Hen'er was also held in this big house.

Under the auspices of the host, Shangguan Yi and Hen'er became married, and Hen'er was then sent to the bridal chamber, but Shangguan Yi was rushed to toast by a group of people. It seemed that if they didn't pour him down today, these people would not give up.

Li Xiu sat on the main table and gave him a few drinks when Shangguan Yi came to toast. However, Li Ke, who was at the same table with him, always wanted to find an opportunity to talk to him, probably because he wanted to continue the conversation just now, but Li Xiu did not give him a chance, and there were other people around him, so Li Ke didn't want others to hear the conversation between the two, so he could only keep silent.

After the wedding banquet, Shangguan Yi was already drunk and she was no longer awake. It seemed that she would not think about the wedding chamber tonight. Li Xiu also stood up to say goodbye at this time, so the guests on the side of Hener also got on the carriage and went home.

"National... Aunt... Aunt, what did you mean before?" Li Ke finally found an opportunity at this time and asked again in a hurry.

"It's the superficial meaning. After you go back to the topic, you think about it carefully and write an article. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" Li Xiu said with a calm expression at this time, and he stopped talking after he finished speaking. No matter how Li Ke asked, it would be useless. This made Li Ke very depressed.

After Li Xiu and his other carriage returned to Ma Ye's house, Li Xiu originally wanted to see the legendary Concubine Yang like, but he didn't expect that when they came back, Concubine Yang had already returned to the palace early, and just left a message to let Li Ke go back by himself. Anyway, Li Ke already had his own palace and did not live in the palace. Li Xiu was also a little disappointed when he failed to see Concubine Yang.

That night, Li Ke returned to his Shu Palace, but he kept thinking about the title that Li Xiu left for him. Speaking of this title, it was too bold. It would be fine to just ask him to summarize Yang Guang's advantages and disadvantages, but in the end he even asked him to compare Yang Guang with his father Li Shimin. You should know that Yang Guang is a famous tyrant. Compared with Li Shimin with such a tyrant, if such words fall into the ears of those who are interested, they may give Li Xiu'an a crime of being traitorous.

In the environment where Li Ke grew up, he kept hearing others say that his grandfather Yang Guang was so cruel, as if he had done all the evil things in the world. However, Li Xiu now asked him to summarize Yang Guang's advantages and disadvantages. Among them, the disadvantages were fine, but the advantages made him unable to remember them no matter what, let alone compared them with his wise and powerful father Li Shimin.
