Tang Taizong's second son, Li Tai, was nicknamed "Qingque", and once he threw himself into Tang Taizong's arms and told his father that if Tang Taizong made him crown prince, he would kill his only son in the future and let his brother Li Zhi, the King of Jin, inherit his throne.

Tang Taizong was deeply touched by this and told the courtiers about this matter, in order to show how kind Li Tai, the King of Wei, was to his brothers, but Tang Taizong said this. Chu Suiliang immediately objected, if there is such a statement, how can he kill his beloved son for the sake of brotherhood, and then pass it on to his brother, it is not reasonable at all, who believes? The fact that the King of Wei said this does not mean that after a hundred years of Emperor Taizong, the life of the King of Jin can be saved, and in order to avoid future fighting, it is better to kill Li Zhi, the King of Jin, first, so that he can live in peace

Later, Tang Taizong slowly became aware that Li Tai was suspicious, provoked Li Zhi to withdraw him from the struggle for the throne, and said to Li Zhi: You have a close relationship with Li Yuanchang, and Li Yuanchang was executed for plotting rebellion against the crown prince, are you not afraid of being implicated? Li Zhi was worried all day and did not think about tea and dinner, and Tang Taizong knew that Li Tai should not intimidate his brother. I was furious about that.

His uncle, Changsun Wuji, also advocated making Li Zhi crown prince. First, Li Zhi is kind in nature, generous and filial to friends, and has no ambition. Second, Li cured control and considered his own political future. Subsequently, All of Li Tai's official positions were deposed, and the title of King of Wei was demoted to the title of King of Donglai County, and after losing everything, he left Chang'an and came to Yunxiang County, Junzhou. The fallen prince will spend his life here.
