Li Yuanji was picking a palm-sized cluster of apricot flowers for Li Chengqian. He heard a familiar voice, lowered his head and saw that it was Yin Qiao, and he suddenly felt happy.
In Li Chengqian's disappointed look, Li Yuanji let go of the palm-sized apricot blossoms that Li Chengqian asked for, and then stretched out his hand to pluck Li Chengye, who was riding on the tree trunk, yelling and shaking the branches crazily like a fool.
He came down and threw it on the wool blanket spread by the maids.
Amidst the exclamations of the maids and the unexpected screams of Li Chengye, he jumped down from the apricot tree.
Yin Qiao immediately stepped forward to greet him and saluted again, with a deep look of dumbfounding on his face.
It seemed that a prince taking two children to harm the apricot blossoms in an apricot tree was a very dishonest and childish behavior in his eyes.
Li Yuanji patted the bark residue on the apricot tree that was stained on his body, and asked with a smile: "You are not at home to take care of the children, so why did you come to my place?"
Since Yin Qiao had a child, she has become a child slave.
Before the child was born, he would stay in front of the child's cradle and talk to the child endlessly. He would not stop until his wife drove him away.
.
When the child reached full term and was played in his arms, he almost never left the child.
If Li Shimin wanted to see him, he had to urge him three times and four times before he could see him.
Even so, he stayed for a moment or two and then left, as if not seeing the child for a quarter of an hour or two would kill him.
It is precisely because of this that he is now called the Duke of Yuezi by many people in Chang'an City.
He didn't seem to care about it, but rather enjoyed it.
Li Yuanji had doubts about this rumor, so after meeting Yin Qiao, he took advantage of the situation and made a joke.
When Yin Qiao heard Li Yuanji's words, he smiled bitterly and said: "I would like to see the child at my house, but my Highness sent people to urge me. If I have to come to you, I have no choice but to come."
.”
Li Yuanji was slightly startled, and while leading Yin Qiao to the main hall of Jiudao Palace, he laughed and said: "So, the rumors in Chang'an City are true, have you really become the one-year-old Duke?"
As if Yin Qiao couldn't hear that the words 'Yuezi Guogong' were mocking him, he laughed cheerfully and said: "I am an old man who has a son, and his heart is tied to his son. He is also a human being."
It’s normal.”
Li Yuanji thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
It was indeed not easy for Yin Qiao to get a son, and his only son, at an age when he was about to call himself an old man.
He worked hard for half his life, took in countless concubines, changed concubines in countless houses, and almost died before seeing his son.
For this reason, it is reasonable for him to regard his son as the treasure in his hand and the whole of his life.
It's just that he only cared about taking care of his son, but he resisted Li Shimin's orders. When Li Shimin asked him to do something, he would send people to ask for help.
Isn’t this a bit too far-fetched?
Thinking of this, Li Yuanji couldn't help but said: "When your son was born, was there anything strange in your house?"
Yin Qiao's expression changed and he said in shock: "Why did Your Highness say this?"
Are visions something ordinary people should have?
Since ancient times, visions have only occurred when outstanding people are born. In the end, these people will either become heroes for a lifetime or become overlords for a generation.

For example, when Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, was born, his house was filled with light and his sprouts were growing in reverse.
Now the world has been settled, and Li Tang has unified the world.
Whoever gave birth to a child like Liu Xiu at this time, who was born with a vision, was not deliberately trying to make him feel uncomfortable and was deliberately giving Li Yuan eye drops.
Can Li Yuan tolerate you?
Yin Qiao knew the stakes involved, so after hearing Li Yuanji's words, his expression changed, and he even started to beat up in his heart.
Li Yuanji faced Yin Qiao's question and said very seriously: "If there were no visions when your son was born, why did your arrogance suddenly become so big? My second brother asked you to do something, and he also sent three people to ask for it.
Four reminders?
Will it be true that after a while, my father will ask you to do things, and you will have to ask for help?"
When Yin Qiao heard this, his face turned ugly, and his heart began to tremble.
Li Yuanji took a deep look at Yin Qiao and said meaningfully: "If that's the case, then my Li family can't afford you."
Yin Qiao shuddered and swallowed hard.
Obviously these words frightened him greatly.
Li Yuanji didn't say any more, and rushed to the main hall of Jiudao Palace with his hands behind his back.
After sitting down, he ordered someone to serve hot tea. After taking a few sips, Yin Qiao followed in.
Yin Qiao bowed curtly, found a place to sit down, and said quickly: "Your Highness, I..."
Li Yuanji didn't wait for Yin Qiao to finish speaking, waved his hand and said: "I know it's not easy for you to have a son in your old age, and it's reasonable to dote on him a little. But you dote on your son, but you can't forget your identity.
You are not me, and you have no right to temper my second brother.
The reason why my second brother indulges you and doesn't beat you or say anything is because he also knows that it is not easy for you to have a son in your old age, and he can understand if you make some mistakes in order to pamper your son.
But this understanding is only temporary, not permanent.
If you keep doing this, my second brother will deal with you one day.
The friendship between you and my second brother, as well as the contribution you have made to our Datang, will be consumed by my second brother's understanding again and again.
When the time comes when my second brother takes care of you, he will not show mercy."
When Yin Qiao heard these words, he swallowed hard again, his lips trembled, but he didn't speak.
Because he knew very well that Li Yuanji's instructions were correct.

Li Yuanji saw that Yin Qiao had listened to what he said, so he didn't say much more on this topic. Instead, he ordered someone to serve Yin Qiao a cup of tea, and asked: "By the way, my second brother this time
I asked you to come here because you have something to convey to me, right?"
When Yin Qiao heard this, he suddenly came back to his senses. Then he remembered that he came to Jiulongtan Mountain this time to convey a message on behalf of Li Shimin. He immediately calmed down and said seriously: "My Highness is sending ministers here this time.
, I want to ask His Highness, is there anything wrong with Your Highness leaving Dou’s affairs to him alone?"
Li Yuanji had long expected why Yin Qiao came, so after hearing this, he said disapprovingly: "I have already done what I need to do, what else do you need me to do?
Didn't I ask Ling Jing to tell him that when he needs my help, he can just send someone to pass the message.
I didn't say I didn't care at all.
What’s wrong with that?”
Yin Qiao smiled bitterly and said: "You are the one who started the Dou family matter. Now you have left everything to my Highness, but you don't care about it. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Li Yuanji nodded without hesitation: "Of course it's appropriate."
Yin Qiao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
After a long time, he said dumbfounded: "Aren't you being a rogue?"
Li Yuanji opened his eyes and said maliciously: "You dare to say that I am acting like a rogue?"
Yin Qiao smiled bitterly and said, "You can be a minister without saying so. But if you are so unreasonable, what's the difference between you and being a rogue?"
Li Yuanji rolled his eyes at Yin Qiao and hummed: "So what if I act like a rogue? He is my brother, he should take care of me, and he should help me take care of him more."
Yin Qiao didn't know what to say at all.
Li Yuanji acted rogue, but he had no choice.
Let alone him, even if Li Shimin came, there was nothing he could do.
It will be the same when Li Yuan comes.
Who makes me the youngest member of the Li family?
He is the kind who can spoil the whole family, act rogue, and let the whole family take care of him confidently.
And the entire Li family is the most noble group of people in the world. Only they can care about others, and no one can control them.
So Li Yuanji, the youngest among them, acted like a rogue and acted violently. Unless he was tough, there would be almost no solution.
If it comes to hard work, it will be even more incomprehensible.
Because there is no one in the entire Tang Dynasty who can beat Li Yuanji.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin both looked for it secretly.
Really do not have.
Yin Qiao lost his temper when Li Yuanji acted like a scoundrel, so he resorted to tough tactics and began to argue with Li Yuanji.
The conversation continued until three or five cups of tea were exchanged. Li Yuanji was annoyed and finally let go, "Don't waste any more words. Just tell me, what exactly does my second brother want me to do?"
Seeing that Li Yuanji finally relaxed, Yin Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. He took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said quickly: "What my Highness means is that I hope you can make things happen in Yizhou.
In this way, even if the saint wanted to protect the Dou family, he would still have to put one or two of the Dou family members in prison to give an explanation to the world."
Li Yuanji raised his brows slightly, "Do Jue? What do you mean?"
Yin Qiao couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Why do you ask, Your Highness, knowingly? I don't believe that Your Highness doesn't know the meaning of these words."
Li Yuanji sighed thoughtfully: "Once things are done, the Dou family and I will become mortal enemies. My father has found out about me, and it's hard for me to explain."
Yin Qiao just picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea without saying anything.
Li Yuanji looked at Yin Qiao and said, "Just taking down one or two people from the Dou family, doesn't it go against my original intention and his expectations?"
Yin Qiao put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "My Highness said that as long as one or two people from the Dou family can fall, more people can fall. I'm afraid that none of the Dou family will fall. In that case, he will do the same thing with you."
No matter how much, it’s useless.”
Li Yuanji nodded thoughtfully, he understood the meaning of these words.
As long as one person from the Dou family falls, it means that Li Yuan will not defend the Dou family to the death, and then Li Shimin can use more methods to make more people from the Dou family fall, and finally destroy the Dou family.
If the Dou family cannot be defeated by one person, it means that Li Yuan is protecting the Dou family to the death.
In that case, dealing with the Dou family will take a lot of trouble.
As for saying that no matter how much you do, it will be useless, that is purely a joke.
