Pei Ji stepped forward with some worry and supported Li Yuan's shaky body.
"Xuanzhen - I'm fine - tell me, did I really do something wrong back then?"
After saying that, Li Yuan looked straight at Pei Ji, as if he wanted to find an answer from Pei Ji's eyes.
Pei Ji couldn't help but remain silent.
He didn't know how to open his mouth. He subconsciously wanted to refute Wang Zi'an's remarks, but he didn't know where to start.
Seeing that Pei Ji opened his mouth several times but no words came out, Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh silently. Pei Ji didn't know if he was delusional. At this moment, he suddenly felt that his old boss seemed to be much older all of a sudden.
The body is slightly stooped.
But the knot between his brows seemed to have dissipated a lot.
He turned his head and glanced at Wang Zi'an with complicated eyes. He didn't know whether to complain about the young man's lack of understanding of the importance of what he said, or to thank the young man for finally letting his old employer open his heart.
Seeing Li Yuan's loss and complex expression, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but shook his head with some sympathy.
This is probably a case of things being kind to others and causing sadness, right?
I estimate that the nonsense that happened in Old Li's family is similar to the nonsense that happened in Li Yuan's family.
When these wealthy families have a large amount of property, it is easy for brothers to fight against each other and father and son to turn against each other.
Also a pitiful one.
Seeing Li Yuan's devastated look, Wang Zi'an couldn't bear to hit him anymore and patted him on the back empathetically.
"So, be open-minded, brother. Since you are no longer willing to pursue the past, you might as well let go of your worries and let these things turn over. At any rate, you are luckier than that old guy Li Yuan. You were just imprisoned by your son for a few years.
That’s all, hasn’t this already been released—”
When Li Yuan heard this, he smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Yes, they have all been released..."
"That's right. As for this person, he has to look forward. When the meat rots, it's all in the pot. Who is in charge of this family? What's more, what you mean by this is that your son is still doing what he wants now.
Yes, even if he was a bastard and not a son of a human being——"
The prince settled down for a moment, pulled Li Yuan, who had a complex expression, and spoke earnestly and consolingly.
"We are so old, what's the point of arguing with our own son? There's no point in settling old scores. As long as he respects you well now, you can live your life well. Throw all the mess in the house to him and let him have a headache.
——”
Having said this, Wang Zi'an himself couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"We will have fun in various ways every day and enjoy our old age. If nothing happens, I will make two cups of my brother and brag about it. If it doesn't work, you can learn from our Supreme Emperor and marry several concubines and make little people to play with every day.
, give your unlucky son a lot of little brothers and sisters, and then throw them to him, let him raise them for you, and let him have a headache, think about it, life in childhood is quite interesting..."
Cough cough cough——
This big turn was a bit sharp and almost choked Li Yuan.
Pei Ji couldn't help but look at the sky, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
This young man really dares to talk about such a taboo topic and talk nonsense about it.
However, after such a joke, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel much more relaxed.
"Is it what you say in your poem "About to Enter the Wine" when you are proud of your life, you must have all the joy, and don't let the golden bottle stand empty against the moon?"
Prince An patted him on the shoulder solemnly and nodded approvingly.
"Of course, children can be taught -"
Knowing that Wang Zi'an was deliberately teasing and making himself happy, Li Yuan couldn't help but smile and pointed at Wang Zi'an.
"You brat, you're good at understanding people -"
After speaking, Li Yuan patted Wang Zi'an on the shoulder seriously.
"Brother, thank you!"
With that said, Li Yuan casually pulled off the jade pendant from his waist and helped the prince put it on with his own hands.
"Brother, I don't have anything to give you. This jade pendant is pretty good. If you encounter any trouble that can't be solved in the future, you might as well take it to see the master of the Xuandu Temple. He will take you there.
Come to me - come to think of it, there is no problem in Chang'an city that I can't solve..."
I believed your evil deeds!
You can't even deal with your own son.
Wang Zian couldn't help but complain in his heart.
This calfskin bra is exactly the same as another Lao Li I know. If you weren't much more ugly than him, I would have almost thought you were father and son.
However, the quality of this jade pendant is really good, it is warm and silky, and it feels better than the one I got from Lao Cheng——
The smile on Wang Zi'an's face became much more sincere.
Although he likes to brag, he is generous with his actions. At least he is much better than that old Li who likes to prostitute himself for free!
"That would be disrespectful——"
Seeing Wang Zi'an accept the jade pendant readily, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel very good, patted Wang Zi'an on the shoulder and said.
"Speaking of it, I'm really ashamed. I've lived for most of my life, and yet a young man like you can't understand it! You're right, the past is over, we have to look forward and enjoy our old age -"
Speaking of this, Li Yuan suddenly thought of something, paused slightly, and looked at Wang Zi'an with a smile.
"By the way, my bastard son just found some young and beautiful girls for me a few days ago. Do you want to give you two..."
Wang Zi’an:……
No, brother, I can't keep up with your sudden speed.
"That's really - ahem, it's too inappropriate. A gentleman doesn't take what others like. Besides, my yard is small and I can't grow it..."
Wang Zi'an couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he almost lost his mind just now.
If I hadn't gotten married yet, I would have brought home a few concubines, and Lao Li and Lao Cheng would have exploded——
Seeing Wang Zi'an's embarrassed look, Li Yuan couldn't help laughing.
"It doesn't matter if the courtyard is small. I guess you will need a bigger courtyard soon. You have made great contributions in the process of conquering Mobei and capturing Jie Li. I guess the current emperor will reward you with a courtyard -
—Whenever you want it, you can always come to me, brother. Don’t worry, I’ll keep it for you. Don’t move..."
As he said this, the old guy gave Wang Zi'an a little look that you know how to do.
Brother, you are really going too far. You actually want to corrupt a good young man like me in such a shameful way...
Wang Zi'an couldn't help but complain silently, secretly hiding the trace of envy in his eyes.
Although this old Litou said he was bitter and resentful, it seemed that he only had some small grudges against his son for seizing power. In fact, his life was pretty good.
If he really was a traitor, could he personally give him a concubine?
But finding a mistress for yourself is not a bad idea.
While he was joking with Li Yuan, he suddenly heard a somewhat magnetic voice coming from not far away.
"Excuse me, it's Prince An who is in front of you..."
Wang Zi'an turned around with some surprise, and saw two men wearing Taoist robes, carrying swords on their backs, and standing under an old locust tree not far away.
