Just then, Li Tai rode his horse slowly towards them.

"Hehe! Eldest brother and third brother, you're really in high spirits! Father is still trying to persuade you, and you're already chatting!"

Upon hearing this, both of them instinctively turned to look at Li Tai.

When they saw Li Tai's appearance, they couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, Li Tai was riding a warhorse that was even more robust than a normal warhorse.

This was clearly a top-quality warhorse that had been carefully selected, but even so, the horse's four legs were still trembling slightly as Li Tai pressed them down.

Seeing this comical scene, Li Chengqian couldn't hold back any longer.

"Pfft~ Hahahaha! Blue Sparrow, please, spare this warhorse! You two aren't a good match, hahahaha!"

Hearing his elder brother's laughter, Li Ke could no longer hold back.

"Hahahaha! Fourth brother, why don't we just forget about it? Even if Father knew about your situation, he wouldn't blame you, hahahaha!"

Seeing the two of them laughing heartily, Li Tai, who had been making sarcastic remarks, suddenly turned pale.

"What do you know? This is a thoroughbred I personally selected. Although it's not my father's Akhal-Teke, it's still a first-rate horse. Today, I'm going to ride it to win the autumn hunt!"

At this point, he didn't forget to look provocatively at Li Chengqian, who was laughing so hard he had tears in his eyes, and said:

"Hehe! Big brother! I forgot to tell you, the other day Father called me to the Liangyi Hall alone, and guess what he said to me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian rolled his eyes at him with amusement and said somewhat speechlessly:

"Guess what? You're just a kid! Still guessing!"

However, upon hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Tai was not angry. Instead, he looked at him with a smug expression and said:

"Father said I am the one most like him, and he also told me that the Crown Prince is incompetent and that I should strive to improve him!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ke, who had been all smiles, immediately stopped smiling.

Meanwhile, Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai with a strange expression.

hiss~

Why does this sound so familiar? I feel like I've heard it somewhere before!

Moreover, his own father actually said that Li Tai was the most like him.

He truly deserves to be called a ruthless person who can become an emperor. His ability to lie through his teeth is something that ordinary people cannot possess!

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smirk slightly, then feigned fear and looked at him, saying:

"This...this is impossible! I am the Crown Prince, how could Father say such a thing to you?! You must be lying to me!"

Seeing Li Chengqian break down on the spot, Li Tai felt even more smug.

"Hahaha! Brother! Do you think I need to lie to you? Let me tell you, I'm sure I'll win first place in this autumn hunt!"

After saying that, he ignored the bewildered Li Chengqian and turned to head towards his resting tent.

Li Ke looked at Li Chengqian, who had an incredulous expression, with a worried look on his face.

"Big...Big brother, are you alright?"

However, at that moment, Li Chengqian couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Third brother, did you hear that? The old man said Li Tai looks most like him, hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter! How could the old man say such blatant lies?"

Seeing his elder brother's sudden change, Li Ke couldn't help but look puzzled. He looked at Li Chengqian uncertainly and said:

"Big brother! Are you really alright?"

Li Chengqian waved his hand dismissively.

"What could possibly be wrong with me?"

"But what does Father mean by saying such things to Fourth Brother? Could it be that he really favors Fourth Brother?"

Seeing his third brother's worried expression, Li Chengqian couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.

"You're overthinking it. He's just using Qingque to give me a little warning. How can someone his age be so childish?"

Upon hearing his elder brother's words, Li Ke couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.

In this Tang Dynasty, besides my grandfather, only you, my elder brother, would dare to speak of Father Emperor like that.

Just then, Li Chengqian patted Li Ke on the shoulder and said:

"Alright! Stop thinking about it so much. Let's have a competition, brothers, to see who hunts more prey. The loser treats us to dinner!"

Seeing that his elder brother seemed to be truly alright, Li Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then put on a proud expression and said:

"Brother! When it comes to archery and horsemanship, you're no match for me. Just wait and see, you'll have to treat me! Hahahaha!"

Upon hearing Li Ke's words, Li Chengqian did not refute them.

Without the system's support, he really wouldn't be a match for Li Ke.

To be honest, if you really want to say who among all of the old man's children is most like him, it's definitely not Li Tai, nor is it him.

On the contrary, the King of Shu in front of him, even Li Shimin sincerely said that Li Ke was just like him!

Such praise is far superior to the words used to deceive Lee Tae-seok.

Li Ke not only inherited Li Shimin's appearance, but also his archery and horsemanship skills.

If Consort Yang hadn't intentionally made him hide his talents, none of the princes would have been his match.

Thinking of this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile slightly.

Too bad, I was cheating!

My silly little brother~

Just wait and see if you'll treat me to a meal!

While they were chatting, a figure stealthily slipped into the stable.

……

Boom!Boom!Boom!

As the war drums sounded, the Thousand Bull Guards began entering the hunting grounds. They were responsible for herding the prey to one place to facilitate the hunt.

It also serves as a check for potential hazards to prevent the appearance of ferocious beasts like tigers.

Li Shimin rode his warhorse, holding the precious bow that had fought alongside him for many years.

He drew his bow and nocked an arrow in one swift motion.

boom!

A bowstring snapped open, and the arrow in his hand shot through the air in an instant.

A sika deer that had been driven over in advance fell to the ground in response.

Upon seeing this, the Xuanjia Army behind Li Shimin immediately erupted in cheers.

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

The sound resounded through the sky, immediately causing a stir among the wild beasts in the forest!

Upon seeing this, Li Shimin burst into laughter, then turned to the princes behind him and said:

"Hahaha! Whoever hunts the most prey today, I will bestow upon him this precious bow that has accompanied me on many campaigns!"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Li Ke, looked at Li Shimin with burning fervor.

At this moment, Cheng Yaojin, among the generals, became unhappy.

"Your Majesty!! I also want the precious bow! Can I have one too?"

Seeing his shameless appearance, Yuchi Gong subconsciously moved a little further away from him, indicating that he was not familiar with this simpleton!

Li Shimin couldn't help but roll his eyes at Cheng Yaojin when he heard his words. What a shameless guy.

He said in an annoyed tone:

"You'll get your share. Whether you're a civil official, a military general, or a prince or member of the imperial clan, whoever comes out on top in this autumn hunt will be granted a pardon!"
