Li Jing had already dismounted from his horse and stood there with a solemn expression, looking at his second son Li Dejiang, who was moving towards him almost bit by bit.
I saw that my father's expression didn't change at all, as if he were carved out of clay.
Li Dejiang felt more and more uneasy. He turned around to ask his eldest brother to cover him, but he saw that his eldest brother was still at the dock.
He was muttering something to his fellow rangers.
"Don't come here yet!" A low-pitched scolding voice instantly made Li Dejiang tremble all over.
Li Dejiang could only lower his head, and after taking a few steps forward, he bowed to the ground.
"The unfilial son pays homage to his father..."
Li Jing made a face, and after a long time he said sadly.
"You also knew that I was your father, but I thought you had forgotten."
Hearing this, Li Dexuan couldn't help but touch the big butt that was often attacked by his father's black feet when he was a child, and said subconsciously.
"How dare you forget..."
Seeing Li Dejiao's sneaky and cowardly look, Li Jing almost laughed out loud, but considering that this evil obstacle was given a good look, he kicked his nose in the face.
Li Jing maintained a serious expression and snorted.
"I didn't forget, I ran away without even saying hello, and it took almost half a year before I came back."
Li Dejiang still heard the change in his father's tone. Although it was still very rigid, it was not as unhuman as it was at the beginning.
This guy's tone became more and more sincere, and his attitude became more and more respectful.
"Yes, the child made a mistake, please ask your father to punish you."
After all, he often commits crimes and knows how to weaken his father's anger to the greatest extent and avoid another physical indoctrination.
"Humph, before I get up, your friends have come over. Say hello to them and follow me to the palace to see you."
"Ah?!" Li Dejiang raised his head in confusion and looked at his father.
"Oh shit, His Majesty has a decree to see you and your fellow rangers."
"By the way, did you bring back the third-crop rice?"
"My child brought some back, about twenty kilograms. I wanted to bring some more back for my father and mother to try, but unfortunately Uncle Gu wouldn't let me."
"If you insist on leaving more seeds."
Looking at this second son, Li Jing felt warm in his heart and smiled lightly.
"Although it's a little short, His Majesty will definitely like it. Take them all with you and present them to His Majesty when you enter the palace later."
"Yes, my dear, my dear, go and ask them to get ready."
Watching Li Dejiang walk away quickly, watching the two brothers laughing and joking together again, and the young and capable rangers.
Li Jing caressed the back of his long beard and turned around, raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes that had turned slightly red at some point.

Before Li Dejiang ran over, Li Derjian had already told the gang of rangers who had a fateful relationship with his second brother.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was grateful for their contribution to the people of the world, and specially issued a decree to allow them to come to the palace to see them.
After hearing the news, no one had any contact with the government.
Although the biological father of the eldest brother Li Dejiang is Duke Wei, Li Jing has nothing to do with them, even if they are looking for Li Dejiang.
It was only when General Li was not in the mansion that they felt extremely stressed even when they saw General Li's figure.
Now these wandering knights are going to meet the emperor.
The faces of one or two people who have been exposed to the sun for half a year in Jiaozhou have turned black, and they are all showing a tendency to become, um, frighteningly white.
"We, we are going to see the emperor?"
"Damn this... are we going to be beheaded?"
Li Dejiang, who happened to be walking over, almost flashed his waist when he heard his brother's dirty words, and shouted with a black line on his face.
"Young lady is talking nonsense. Your Majesty wants to kill some of our brothers. Do you need to see us?"
Li Derjian smiled and nodded.
"Your Majesty wants to summon you all because you shared the country's worries and asked for orders, which enabled us in the Tang Dynasty to have the three-crop rice that can produce three crops of food in one year."
An hour later, Li Shimin finally saw this team of knights who had traveled a long distance from the Jiaozhou Dudu Mansion outside the Ganlu Palace.
Then the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty let out a hearty laugh, stepped forward in person, and helped up the knights who had fallen to the ground one by one.
Even Shopkeeper Mo, who once again followed the team to Chang'an, had the honor of having a glimpse of the sky, and was so excited that he burst into tears like a child.
Those knight-errants were not much better, even though they spent all day chatting about how to stand upright.
But facing the most powerful man in the Tang Dynasty, they both behaved very nervously.
Fortunately, Li Shimin did not make it difficult for them. He invited them into the Manna Hall and gave them chrysanthemum tea that could clear the liver, improve eyesight and maintain health.
We had cordial exchanges with them and even asked them about their future plans...
Li Shimin liked the twenty or so kilograms of three-season rice they presented.
They even stayed and shared a meal of rice made from three-season rice.
And the decree was announced by Fang Xuanling, the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, who came in a hurry.
Li Dejiang and other heroic sons and daughters shared the country's worries and traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers to find three-crop rice seeds for the Tang Dynasty.
He had made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, so Li De was awarded the title of Fengyang County Count, and the other brothers were also rewarded with large amounts of money and silk.
Even shopkeeper Mo was rewarded with a thousand pieces of silk and satin and five hundred catties of gold.
Before Li Dejiang left the palace, the news that Li Erlang from Li Weigong's family had returned to Chang'an had spread quickly.
Unexpectedly, this friend just went to the Jiaozhou Governor's Mansion and wandered around, and then got a kind of rice seed that matures three times a year.
To get such a title that ordinary people can't get with all their efforts and become Fengyang County Bo is really enviable to the extreme.

When they bid farewell to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and walked towards the outside of the palace, everyone seemed to be still in the clouds.
My mind seems to be stuck in the previous moment.
"Brother, did His Majesty praise me just now?" Wu Tunbao touched his face in confusion and kept giggling.
"Yes, I not only praised you, but also praised your brother and me." Wu Tunhu happily touched the sword beside his waist that was given by His Majesty himself.
Yes, each of their group of rangers received a royal sword.
Shopkeeper Mo received an abacus inlaid with jasper from His Majesty.
It is said that this object is a good treasure specially used for calculation, and its effect is much better than that of calculation chips.
Li Jing was walking in the front, but when he left the palace today, he deliberately slowed down his pace.
He would stop from time to time, waiting for Erlang and his restless brothers to catch up.
Until he left the palace city, Li Dejiang looked up with awareness and saw a man dressed in red and wearing a bamboo hat.
There was a familiar figure with a horizontal sword hanging by his waist. Li Dejiang's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he strode towards it.
