Chapter 223 Li Chenggan
Chen Wenjiu took Chen Momo to finish eating ice cream and desserts and then left the restaurant. When they just came out of the hall, they saw Li Lizhi coming out of the reception room.
"It's Miss Lizhi, aren't you in class now?" Chen Wenjiu greeted naturally.
"Have the store manager and this little sister just finished their meals?" Li Lizhi asked curiously, "It shouldn't be breakfast or lunch time now, right?"
The Tang Dynasty actually has two meals a day. Li Lizhi only found out that they have three meals a day after coming to the hotel. There are also various snacks, afternoon tea, and supper to eat on weekdays, and they eat many meals a day.
Although she was envious, Li Lizhi also knew that they didn't have the ability to let everyone eat so many meals a day.
However, since Li Lizhi came to the hotel, as long as she was studying here, she could have three meals a day or more here, and she could eat whatever she wanted.
In the past half a month or almost a month, Li Lizhi has gained some weight.
"Momo and I didn't have any meals, we just had some ice cream and snacks." Chen Wenjiu said with a smile, "Are you hungry, Miss Lizhi?"
"A little bit." Li Lizhi said embarrassedly, "I just plan to go to the restaurant to see if I can buy some food to eat."
"Lizhi, why did you run out?" Just as Li Lizhi and Chen Wenjiu were talking, a ten-year-old boy also ran out.
Chen Wenjiu heard the voice, and then looked at the boy who came out behind Li Lizhi, who looked about the same age as Li Tai and looked very similar to Li Tai.
The boy was stunned when he saw Chen Wenjiu, and then he bowed politely and said, "So you are the store manager, I am Li Chenggan."
Li Chenggan? Chen Wenjiu was a little surprised after hearing this self-introduction. Seeing that the other party had a face that was somewhat similar to Li Tai and Li Lizhi, and that he was about the same age as Li Tai, he couldn't help but squint.
Is this the unlucky prince of Emperor Taizong of Tang?
To be honest, sometimes Chen Wenjiu sympathizes with the prince. He does have some bad points, but she thinks that Li Chenggan will become abnormal later, more because he is too depressed.
As a prince, he is surrounded by people arranged by his father. The officials of the Eastern Palace stare at him every day, nagging him about everything he does, what he should and shouldn't do, anyway, they strictly require Li Chenggan to do what they say, and if he doesn't listen, they will keep nagging him and complain to Emperor Taizong of Tang.
In this environment where he is monitored by people for twelve hours every day, he has to learn all kinds of things, suppress his personality, and be nagged every day. It would be strange if Li Chenggan didn't go crazy after living in such a situation for so many years.
Let alone Li Chenggan, if anyone else has been in such an environment for so many years, it would be extremely rare not to go crazy.
Li Chenggan himself may have done something wrong, but she thinks it's more because the pressure from the people around him is really too great, and those officials who stare at him and nag him every day are also the key to driving him crazy.
The prince is really too difficult.
The reason why Li Chenggan appeared in the hotel was because Li Tai and Li Lizhi often came to the hotel. Later, he really felt that it was not possible, so he asked his younger brother and sister to bring him here.
Originally, Li Lizhi was able to bring Li Tai here, which was already the limit of her ability. Later, it was because Li Tai and Li Lizhi's consumption at the hotel reached the standard, and their brother and sister's favorability towards the hotel reached the standard, that Li Chenggan could be brought here.
The reason why Li Chenggan also wanted to come was that he was afraid that Li Tai would surpass himself after getting such an opportunity, and then oppose him to do anything to grab the position of the crown prince. Secondly, he wanted to find a place to hide and relax.
Before, after Li Lizhi and Li Tai came to the hotel and went back, they told Li Shimin about the harm of close relatives marrying. Li Chenggan and Li Tai both suggested that their own Aye check and then not let Li Lizhi marry Changsun Chong.
This matter has had a result in the past half month.
After all, Li Shimin was the emperor, and he had many capable people under his command, so the people he sent out to investigate the matter of close relatives quickly investigated the situation in Chang'an, nearby counties, and other places.
There were many cases of close relatives marrying in Chang'an alone. After all, the ancients emphasized close relatives, and cousin marriage was very common in ancient times, and it was also the best way to keep in touch.
But marriage by expression means that their children and descendants will have problems.
The people sent by Li Shimin found that 90% of the families with cousin marriages had children with poor health, and half of the families had couples who could not give birth to children, most of which were born by concubines.
Of course, among the 90%, there were many children with low IQ and stupidity, and some children had serious physical defects, and some had various physical problems that were difficult to treat.
Among the last half, only one-third of the children were healthy and had normal IQ. The other one-third were not in good health, but had high IQ.
Among the children of real close relatives, those who were healthy and smart were very rare.
Li Shimin was really frightened by such a result. Some others died during childbirth.
Li Shimin loved his daughter Li Lizhi very much. This was his first daughter with Empress Changsun. How could he bear to let her die at such a young age?
It is indeed impossible to change the fact that the Changsun family married a princess, but Li Shimin has more than one daughter, Li Lizhi, so he can change another daughter to marry Changsun Chong.
Of course, Li Shimin would not hide the matter of changing the princess from Changsun Wuji. After discussing with Empress Changsun, he showed the results of the investigation to Changsun Wuji. Not only that, he also showed it to other court officials of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin argued with his ministers for a long time, and those people finally compromised, mainly Changsun Wuji, and changed a princess to marry home. After all, Li Lizhi is also his niece. What if he forcefully wants his son to marry Li Lizhi, and ends up causing his niece to die early?
And Changsun Wuji also hopes that his grandchildren can be good, instead of having various problems as shown in the survey data, and some even died young.
So in the end, Princess Yuzhang and Changsun Chong were engaged. After all, Princess Yuzhang was also raised by Empress Changsun, and the relationship is very good. Marrying your adopted daughter to your nephew from your mother's family is also a close relationship.
At least Princess Yuzhang and Changsun Chong are not that closely related.
Of course, Princess Yuzhang is younger than Li Lizhi, so this marriage has to wait until Li Lizhi grows up. Maybe Princess Yuzhang will marry Changsun Chong after she gets married first.
Because he knew that getting married at a young age and becoming familiar with the world too early would be bad for the body, Li Shimin planned to let everyone get married after they grow up.
The court has been really lively recently, and Li Chenggan was also very annoyed by his own ministers in the East Palace, so he was very happy to run to the hotel with his younger brothers and sisters.
For Li Shimin, his three children all went to the place of immortals to study, so he had no reason to stop them, right? What if the children learned better and better there, how could he be worthy of himself and the children if he stopped them?
