Li Ke was born in 619 (the second year of Wu De), was the third son of Tang Taizong, the birth mother Yang Fei (daughter of the Sui Emperor Yang Guang), after Tang Taizong inherited the throne, he was crowned king of Wu, the nature of heroic and decisive, wen and wu double quan, although not out of favor, but deeply favored by Tang Taizong, Tang Taizong often praised him in front of the group of courtiers, the history books record that Tang Taizong evaluated Li Ke: "Wu Wang Ke Ying guo kind of me. ”

Originally, Tang Taizong had never been worried about the problem of the crown prince, because he had long thought that the crown prince Li Chengqian (the birth mother empress eldest grandson, the eldest son of the concubine) could inherit his unification, but somehow Li Chengqian became pampered and indulgent, and Tang Taizong repeatedly advised him to no avail, and the fourth son Li Tai (the birth mother of the eldest grandson empress, the second son) was also deeply favored by Tang Taizong, and he was born to seize the position of prince, and his brothers were evil, while Li Ke never wanted to seize the position of prince, all of which Tang Taizong saw in his eyes.

In 643 (the seventeenth year of Zhenguan), Li Chengqian sent people to assassinate his younger brother Li Tai unsuccessfully, because he was afraid of Tang Taizong's guilt, he colluded with Hou Junji (one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyange) and others to force the palace, trying to replace Tang Taizong first, but the matter was revealed, Tang Taizong was distraught at Li Chengqian, deposed his position as crown prince, and on the issue of re-establishing the crown prince, because the fourth son Li Tai also intended to seize the position of prince, weighing the pros and cons, he established the ninth son Li Zhi (the birth mother of the eldest grandson empress, the third son) as the crown prince. In fact, Tang Taizong had already considered making his favorite Li Ke crown prince.

Not long after, he discovered that Li Zhi was cowardly and not the ideal candidate to inherit his unification, so he summoned the eldest grandson Wujie and said, "You persuaded Li Zhi to be the crown prince, and I am afraid that I will not be able to defend the country. Tang Taizong said, "You are opposed because King Wu is not your nephew." Because the eldest son Wujie was extremely arguing, Tang Taizong eventually gave up this idea, but the eldest son Wuji was deeply jealous of Li Ke, and he always wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of Li Ke.
Later, Li Zhi successfully succeeded to the throne for Emperor Gaozong of Tang, and Li Ke had been scrupulously abiding by the duties of the king of the domain for so many years, and his achievements in governing the fiefdom were remarkable, and Emperor Gaozong of Tang respected his brother Li Ke and repeatedly sealed him, but unfortunately in 653 (the fourth year of Yonghui), Li Ke's fate changed due to a conspiracy case.
The eldest grandson in the film and television drama is unscrupulous
Fang Yi'ai was the second son of the famous minister Fang Xuanling, who married Princess Gaoyang, the seventeenth daughter of Emperor Taizong of Tang, and later Princess Gaoyang fell out of favor, and Fang Yi'ai was degraded and dissatisfied, and the two colluded with Chai Lingwu (the son of the famous general Chai Shao) and others to attempt to launch a coup d'état, depose Tang Gaozong, and install Li Yuanjing,the King of Jing (the sixth son of Tang Gaozu) as emperor.
However, the matter was revealed, all the cadres and others were arrested, and the case was tried by the eldest son Wujie, and it was because of this conspiracy case that the eldest son Wuji took the opportunity to implicate Li Ke and forged evidence that Li Ke participated in the rebellion, and Li Ke's death sentence could not be escaped.
Emperor Gaozong of Tang wanted to pardon his only surviving brother, but his courtiers resisted, and eventually Li Ke was executed in Chang'an City at the age of 34, and all his sons were exiled, and Tang Taizong's favorite son was unjustly killed.
The fate of the eldest son Wuji who killed Li Ke was also tragic, because Wu Zetian wanted to become the empress of Tang Gaozong, and the eldest son Wuji strongly opposed and offended Wu Zetian, Wu Zetian designed to frame the eldest son Wuji to rebel, and finally the eldest son Wuji was forced to hang himself, and a generation of famous ministers died in this way.
The eldest grandson Wuji framed Li Ke for rebellion and killed Li Ke, but he himself was also framed for rebellion and forced to commit suicide, which was really karma.
Chairman Mao once commented: "Li Keying, Li Zhi, And Zhizi Moruo's father, but he listened to the words of the eldest grandson, which can be described as a wise life and ignorant for a while." It can be seen that Chairman Mao also praised Li Ke.
