Chapter 1047 The pitiful hearts of parents in the world
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Li Shimin and ignored him. Instead, he waved to Li Chengqian who was beside Li Shimin, asking Li Chengqian to come closer.
Li Chengqian was still in high spirits when he followed his father, but when he faced his uncle's call, his face drooped. It was not that he was angry, nor did he dare to be angry, but that he was afraid of his uncle and did not dare to do anything in front of his uncle.
Second-rate.
After Li Chengqian came closer, Li Yuanji reached out to touch his head. Halfway through, Li Yuanji discovered that Li Chengqian had grown a full head taller in recent days and was almost reaching his shoulders. Immediately, Li Yuanji put down his hand.
He patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and asked with a smile: "Have you ever seen the Jieli Khan and Ashinabil Khan that the Xue brothers brought back?"
Li Chengqian nodded his head cautiously.
Li Shimin said impatiently at this time: "Why are you asking the child this?"
Li Yuanji glanced at Li Shimin, gave Li Shimin a meaningful smile, and did not answer.
When I asked Li Chengqian what he was doing, of course it was to see if Li Chengqian had grown crooked during this period.
If Li Chengqian still worshiped the Turks and wanted to serve as a general under the Turks Khan as he did in history, he would have to send him back to Chang'an City and rebuild his life.
The Tang Dynasty did not need people who worshiped the Turks, and the Tang Dynasty did not need the royal family who worshiped the Turks.
If so, they must be sent back to the factory for remanufacturing.
"What do you think of Jieli Khan and Ashinabil Khan?"
Li Yuanji patted Li Chengqian's shoulder and continued to ask with a smile.
Li Chengqian hesitated for a moment and said timidly: "My nephew thought that they were all prisoners of my Tang Dynasty, and they would be cleaned up by the officials of the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty, trained, and sent to the Ancestral Temple to worship their ancestors!"
Li Yuanji smiled, it's good, the child is not crooked.
Li Yuanji patted Li Chengqian heavily on the shoulder and praised: "That's good, but it's not comprehensive enough. We have to let them act as actors and entertain everyone when I, the Tang Dynasty, entertain all the envoys in the world."
When Li Chengqian heard this, he frowned slightly and said cautiously: "This is not what a gentleman would do..."
Li Yuanji suddenly smiled even more heartily. What does a gentleman do?
A gentleman cannot become a powerful person, nor can he become a royal family.
"Your son, you teach him!"
Li Yuanji happily pushed Li Chengqian towards Li Shimin.
Li Shimin's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
No matter how stupid he is, he would never say such stupid things when faced with this kind of problem, but his son said it and acted as if it was natural. He was almost furious.
Letting Jieli, Ashinabil, and even Tuli act as actors and entertain everyone is not insulting Jieli and others, nor is it using Jieli and others to show off the achievements of the Tang Dynasty, but using Jieli and others
He serves as an example to scare the young people.
This is a political means, not a social means.
Therefore, Li Chengqian's understanding is wrong, and it is very wrong.
"Come here for me!"
Li Shimin shouted at Li Chengqian with a dark face.
At this time, Li Chengqian realized that he had said the wrong thing, but he didn't know where he was wrong, so he lowered his head and walked to Li Shimin with small steps.
Li Shimin wanted to give his son a slap in the face, but after raising his hand, he felt that his son was already too old and it would be inappropriate to hit him again, so he withdrew his hand, stared at his son fiercely and said, "Who taught you to be a gentleman?"
Li Chengqian whispered: "Mr. from the Imperial College!"
Li Shimin said angrily: "Who told you to go to the Imperial College? Who taught you how to be a gentleman? They are not gentlemen themselves, so what qualifications do they have to teach you to be a gentleman?
Also, you are a member of my Li family, or a direct bloodline of my Li family. You were born to drink wine and eat meat, and you are not here to restrain yourself with dogma.
Although I, the Li family, also respect gentlemen, people from my Li family cannot be gentlemen.
If everyone in my Li family is a gentleman, how come we are the current Li family?"
Li Chengqian seemed to understand somewhat, but he still nodded seriously.
As soon as Li Shimin saw this, he knew that his son had not listened, so he snorted and explained in vulgar words, "People like us are born to eat human flesh and drink human blood. We can also choose
Don’t eat, but then others will eat our flesh and drink our blood.
So in order to protect ourselves, even if we know that eating human flesh and drinking human blood is wrong, we still have to eat and drink. Sometimes we have to eat in big mouths and drink openly.
Therefore, if you don’t want to die, or if you don’t want to be eaten flesh and drink blood, you cannot be a gentleman, you must be a villain, and you must be the biggest villain in the world.”
Li Chengqian raised his head little by little and looked at his father in horror. It was hard for him to imagine that such cruel words came from his father's mouth.
After seeing the serious look on his father's face, he knew that his father was not telling him lies, but telling the truth.
He stuttered and said: "But...but..."
Li Shimin interrupted him arrogantly and said: "There is nothing good to say. You will be the king of Mobei from now on, and you will control the land of Mobei thousands of miles away. If you are not ruthless enough, others will ride on you, and if you lose yourself
If you seal the land, you will definitely die!"
Li Chengqian was frightened by the words "certain death", and stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.
Seeing this, Li Shimin let out a long sigh, then slightly arched his hand towards Li Yuanji, and said helplessly and complicatedly: "I want to take Cheng Qian for a walk on the battlefield..."
I hope you will allow me to do so.
Although Li Shimin didn't say these five words, that's what he meant.
The moment he chose to give a salute, it meant that he bowed his head.
If it weren't for his son, he probably would never bow to a younger brother who usurped the throne that he was about to acquire in this life.
Li Shimin kept his posture so low, and even took the initiative to bow his head in salute. If he didn't agree, then no one would be able to sit together and talk in the future.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So after thinking about it for a while, Li Yuanji nodded and said: "Okay, I will ask Zhao Chengyong to order a thousand Yongwang guards to escort you."
Li Shimin knew that Li Yuanji sent Zhao Chengyong to follow him to guard against him, but he didn't say anything or refuse. Instead, he said thank you.
Seeing Li Shimin holding Li Chengqian's hand and leaving the camp, Li Yuanji was filled with emotion.
The only person who can make this eternal emperor bow his head is probably Li Chengqian.
This is the heart of a parent.
When facing things about my children, I can humble myself to a level that they will never be able to humble themselves to.
Historically, Li Shimin didn't seem so humble when facing Li Chengqian. This should be related to the different identities of him in history and his current status.
Later generations often say that Li Shimin was very cruel to his sons, especially Li Chengqian.
But is this really the case?
Not entirely!
After Li Shimin made Li Chengqian the crown prince, he also supported Li Tai to fight with Li Chengqian. Later generations felt that Li Shimin was imitating Li Yuan, and also felt that Li Shimin was dissatisfied with Li Chengqian.
But is this really the case?
After Li Shimin made Li Chengqian the crown prince, Li Chengqian thought about becoming a Turkic general every day. He played house in his palace every day, pretending to be a Turkic corpse, and asked a group of Turks to hold a Turkic-style funeral for him, crying and howling around him.
of.
Li Shimin was such a proud man. How could he tolerate his son worshiping the Turks, and how could he tolerate his son dreaming of becoming a Turk general.
All the Turks combined did not crush him, but forced him to straighten his back. His son immediately knelt down. How dare he put all his treasure on his son?
In comparison, Li Tai at the same time was both good in character and academics, and was filial to his parents. Li Shimin wanted to save a hand and try to make more treasures. If he didn't support Li Tai, who would he support?
You have two sons, one is fooling around every day, worships your enemy, and dreams of working for your enemy, and the other is diligent and studious, surpassing all his peers at a young age, and is also filial to his parents.
Now, you have an inheritance passed down from your ancestors and an inheritance that you have worked hard on yourself. Who do you pass it on to?
He must be a diligent, studious, and filial son.
Li Shimin did not depose Li Chengqian when he was making mischief and established Li Tai as the crown prince, which was enough to prove his fatherly love.
Besides, when he got older, Li Chengqian thought about killing his brothers every day and fought with them, never giving in.
How could Li Shimin, who rose to power by killing his brothers, tolerate his sons repeating his mistakes and love him?
After he fell out of favor, he gave up on himself, did many outrageous things, and even kept a male favorite. Li Shimin was crazy to hand over the country and the country to him.
Jiangshan Sheji belongs to Li Shimin, but it also belongs to everyone in the Li family and everyone in the world. As a British master, how could Li Shimin abandon public affairs for personal reasons when selecting his successor?
Therefore, in history, most of the reasons why Li Chengqian met a miserable end were his own doing.
If he could be like Zhu Biao, filial to his parents, kind to his brothers, and generous to his ministers, and he would not need to contact Hou Junji to rebel, Li Shimin would take the initiative to give up his position as emperor, help him on his horse, and give him a ride
.
Li Shimin had the courage not to kill his father after seizing power, but also allowed his father to peacefully serve as the Supreme Emperor for more than ten years. Then he would also have the courage to take the initiative to take the throne and help his son on the horse for a ride.
Therefore, although Li Shimin was a little harsher on Li Chengqian, he was definitely not dissatisfied with Li Chengqian, nor did he dislike Li Chengqian.
It was Li Chengqian who was doing this crazily. He didn't want to be the prince for so many years and wanted to ascend the throne earlier, so he finally killed himself.
If his mind can be broader and his thoughts can be more open-minded, then his empire will be made of iron and even the King of Heaven, I, cannot take it away.
"Your Highness, do you want me to lead a group of people to escort Erlang Jun and Mobei County Prince to the battlefield?"
When Li Yuanji was thinking about Li Shimin and Li Chengqian and his son, Zhao Chengyong appeared in the cabin and bowed to ask.
