When Li Shimin heard this, he always felt uncomfortable. He always felt that his father was mocking him for being afraid of his wife.
Forget it, don't argue with the old man, pick up the wine glass, smell the mellow and soft aroma of the wine in the glass, drain it in one gulp, it feels good.
While eating the food, the two men began to brag and chat, and then they talked about the marriage between Fang Erlang and Gao Yang.
"After the spring of next year, I will prepare to arrange his marriage to Fang Erlang."
Li Yuan took a sip of wine happily and asked casually.
"Well, after Gao Yang, who will come next?"
"..." Li Shimin's face darkened, he looked at the wine glass in front of him, and said bitterly for a long time.
"After Gaoyang, there's Jinyang...but Jinyang is still young, so I'm going to wait a few more years."
Hearing that it was Li Mingda, Li Yuan slapped his forehead and quickly agreed.
"Yeah, that's right. How old is Xiao Sizi? Don't be in a hurry."
"But Erlang, have you thought about the matter between Xiao Sizi and Cheng Sanlang?"
Li Shimin took a deep breath, smacked his mouth, and said with some regret. "Then what's so good about Cheng Sanlang..."
Li Yuan saw Erlang's appearance, stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a chopstick of braised pig ears that Xiao Sizi had sent him personally yesterday, threw them into his mouth, and chewed them happily.
This thing can be used with wine. It is crispy, fragrant, and not greasy. It is an excellent food for old people like me who are fond of meat and have good teeth.
The important thing is that this is delicious food delivered by the quirky little Sizi himself.
"Haha, in my opinion, that boy Cheng Sanlang is indeed very ordinary.
However, are there any other young talents in the Tang Dynasty who can compare with Cheng Sanlang?"
Hearing his father's question, Li Shimin opened his mouth, but was speechless.
Not to mention, if Cheng Sanlang, who knows the basics, can only be regarded as ordinary.
I'm afraid all the young talents in the world should just lie down and roll in the mud.
Li Yuan saw Li Shimin let out a long sigh, took a sip of wine, and then said with a bitter look on his face.
"Father, I always feel that no man in the world is worthy of our little Sizi."
"But I also understand what Xiao Sizi is thinking, but I just feel..."
"I feel very uncomfortable in my heart, don't you?" Li Yuan took a sip of wine and spoke out for Li Shimin.
"In that case, it's just right. Let's take advantage of this and kick that kid to Luoyang first, so that you can live in peace and let your daughter stay with you for two more years."
"I can't bear to let go of my good granddaughter, but after all, she likes that boy. Moreover, although Cheng Sanlang has such and such problems."
"But in my opinion, as long as this kid can be given enough space to display his talents.
Not only can he do things well, he can even do them beyond anyone’s imagination.”
Li Shimin also nodded in agreement and agreed.
"Originally, I was worried that this boy was too young and already in a high position, so he would be easily criticized by others.
In addition, he had been staying in Chang'an and lacked training, and it was time for Ke'er to leave Chang'an and join the feudal clan, so he drove the three young men to Luzhou."
"There is another reason for sending them to Luzhou. It is the place where Cheng Yaojin has been in power for several years. His father's old troops are there, so no one should be interested in them."
"As a result, what they have achieved in just a few years is something that even the few capable officials in the Tang Dynasty cannot achieve..."
"Not only was he good at governing, but he was also able to compile military drills and lead a group of rogue soldiers. However, he was able to successfully attack Jianchuan City by surprise, causing the Tubo plan to plot the Jiannan Road in the Tang Dynasty to fail."
"To this day, I still don't know how to reward this kid..."
"Too young, too accomplished..."
Li Yuanshen nodded in agreement. "I am not happy to see my official who is the pillar of the Tang Dynasty and make the same mistakes as Medicine Master Li."
"..." Li Shimin glanced at his biological father, who was drinking and eating meat. Of course, he knew exactly what Li Yuan meant by this.
The father and son did not continue to struggle with this issue, but continued to drink and eat meat.
They started talking about how to kick Cheng Sanlang and Li Ke to Luoyang to let them supervise the construction of the palace.
How can we avoid the opposition in the court to the greatest extent.
The father and son ate and chatted until the lanterns were lit, when they heard a eunuch coming to report.
But it was Queen Changsun and Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyang who came hand in hand to pay their respects to the Supreme Emperor.
Li Yuan, who had already drunk until the tip of his nose was red, immediately became happy. When he turned his head, he saw Erlang, who was also drunk and the tip of his nose was red, sitting straight with his head held high and his chest unnaturally.
Soon, Empress Changsun and Li Mingda walked into the hall, and immediately saw the two father and son who were so drunk that the tips of their noses were red.
Fortunately, the empress of the Tang Dynasty always knew how to show respect to her husband in front of others, and greeted Li Yuan with a smile as usual.
The cute little Li Mingda on the side just called "grandpa" and "daddy", making the two father and son who drank a little too much happy.
Just when Li Shimin was talking to Empress Changsun, Li Mingda leaned into Li Yuan's ear and whispered.
Then he saw his grandfather Li Yuan wink at him proudly and make a gesture.
Li Mingda suddenly smiled and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, you are so kind."
Li Yuan was overjoyed, patted the back of Li Mingda's hand with a doting look on his face and said with a smile.
"Ha, who makes our little Si Zi so cute? Grandpa will always be on your side."

In Chang'an, in the Chengjia Restaurant, a group of shareholders from the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses gathered here once again to eat, drink and have a great time.
Several people who liked martial arts were surrounding Fang Jun, insisting that he tell about his repeated battles with the Tubo people in Yazhou to compete for the city.
Cheng Chubi sat down with Li Ke and several more mature and steady shareholders to discuss matters.
At first, everyone gathered around Cheng Sanlang to ask about his battle in Luzhou, but soon everyone lost interest.
Cheng Sanlang's action wasn't called fighting, it was just like bragging. It was over after a while and he didn't kill many people. He wasn't enthusiastic at all.
It's nothing like Brother Jun, where he's slashing and killing, his arms and legs are flying around, and it's bloody. It's exciting and thrilling to hear.
Cheng Chubi was really powerless to deal with the bad taste of these rough men. He couldn't help but love them.
"However, according to the news from Jiaozhou, I am afraid that next year's revenue growth will not be as high as last year to this year. At most, it will increase by 20 to 30% compared to this year."
"In addition, after several years of large-scale investment, Jiaozhou Dagang's current trade volume is still inferior to that of Guangzhou Port, but it has become the main docking station for ships coming from the west."
"In addition, Jiaozhou Plantation has successfully tried to grow three new spices, and is preparing to open several new plantations..."
