Li Chengqian's whole body was surrounded by intense fear.
Although she didn't cry out, her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Although Li Shimin was right in front of him, he still couldn't help but be afraid.
Li Shimin reached out, took Li Chengqian's arm, and held him in his arms.
He had forgotten how long it had been since he hugged Li Chengqian properly.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
In the past two years, the two times I hugged Li Chengqian seemed to be after he fainted.
When I held him in Mobei, he was as skinny as a stick.
Holding him now, he finally has some flesh on his body.
This is the only place that makes Li Shimin happy.
But when I look at Li Chengqian’s appearance, there is not a single piece of meat on his body.
Li Shimin felt heartbroken again.
Li Chengqian truly felt safe when he was held in Li Shimin's arms.
He smelled his father's scent.
Whether it is the father in the previous life or the father in this life.
Only my father has this kind of taste.
This sense of security can only be given by a father.
"You killed the person who wanted to harm your sister."
"It's him who deserves to die, it's no big deal."
Li Shimin comforted him expressionlessly.
If Li Chengqian had not killed that man, he would have cut him into pieces.
It was really easy for him to let him die so easily.
"But he is also a human being..."
In Li Chengqian's mind, the look that the man looked at him before he died appeared again.
That kind of devil-like look will be unforgettable for a lifetime just by looking at it.
"Qian'er."
"Dad didn't teach you before, it's his fault."
"But today, daddy will tell you a truth."
"Some people are no longer individuals when they do certain things."
"For example, the one you killed is not even comparable to a pig."
"You killed him to punish evil and promote good, so that fewer people would be harmed."< br>
Li Shimin used this great truth to comfort Li Chengqian.
But this kind of reasoning has no effect at all on Li Chengqian.
He was still shaking and tears were still flowing.
However, he did not refute Li Shimin anymore and buried his head in Li Shimin's clothes.
Just when Li Shimin felt helpless, Queen Changsun suddenly walked in from outside.
She was not as gentle as Li Shimin. She scowled directly at Li Chengqian: "Li Chengqian, stand up for me and act like you are neither dead nor alive. Who are you showing to me?"
Li Chengqian glanced at his wolf mother with a confused face.
"A dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he is also the eldest prince."
"What's wrong with killing a thief?"
"What's wrong with killing someone who dares to snatch my sister in the street?"
"Do you know what will happen to your sister once she falls into the hands of Tang Dynasty's enemies?"
"Do you know what will happen to Datang?"
"If they threaten your sister's life, let your father pay compensation."
"Will your father give it to you or not?"
"I asked your father to cede territory. Should your father cede it or not?"
Empress Changsun yelled at Li Chengqian.
"In this world, who likes war and who wants to kill people?"
"Does your father just like war and want to kill people?"
"He doesn't want to either. He also wants to live a peaceful life. But if your father lives a peaceful life, will the people still have a peaceful life?"
"Li Chengqian, remember, you are not only your father's eldest son, but also the eldest prince of the Tang Dynasty."
"You represent the face of Datang."
"If you were killed that day, you would be the one who lost face."
"At the age of nine, my son can risk his life fighting villains on the street to save his sister."
"If this word spreads, who in the world will be dissatisfied, and who will dare to look down upon it?"
Killed our Tang Dynasty?"
Empress Changsun said to Li Chengqian with sincerity and sincerity: "Gan'er, it doesn't matter whether it's peace and prosperity or troubled times."
"Children of the royal family must look like princes. After all, you represent not only yourself, but the country."
"Besides, can you really bear to watch your father and your brothers risk their lives on the battlefield and do nothing?" .??.
Although these words touched Li Chengqian to some extent.
But he still couldn't help but dislike himself.
Li Chengqian raised his head with tears on his face: "Everyone's life is life, but I just ended someone's life. I...I..."
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Empress Changsun suddenly waved her hand to interrupt him.
Immediately afterwards, he took the wet handkerchief from the hand of the palace maid and wiped the tears on Li Chengqian's face.
"Mom asks you, if we were in a peaceful and prosperous age now, there would be no Turks, no Khitans, and no foreign enemies."
"Do you still need to kill someone?"
Li Chengqian shook his head slightly.
"Isn't this right?"
"Mom knows, you are very smart."
"You can definitely imagine that if a country wants to be strong and prosperous, it is never one generation, but several generations. You are the next generation."
"The country of the Tang Dynasty will be handed over to your brothers sooner or later."
"You will have to experience these things sooner or later."
"It's a good thing for you that you've already experienced it."
"Mom, I don't want anything else, I just hope you can think about it on your own."
"Because you are a man, and a man must look like a man, do you understand?"
Li Chengqian's mind was in chaos.
Can't say a word.
Li Shimin on the side was dumbfounded.
When it comes to educating children, my mother-in-law has her own way...
He had been talking to himself for so long just now, but it was of no use at all.
But Queen Changsun is so aggressive After a series of insults and scoldings, Li Chengqian was left to figure it out on his own.
Just when Li Shimin was about to say something.
Suddenly Li Chengqian raised his head and looked at Li Shimin: "Father, who is the mastermind this time? Have you found out yet?"
"not yet."
Li Shimin sighed.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
It is true that Dali Temple captured several assassins, but no useful information was ever produced from the interrogations.
He was preparing to pull out those in charge of Dali Temple tomorrow and reprimand them.
"Don't check if you don't have it."
Li Chengqian lowered his head: "It was made by Turks, that old guy Jieli."
Hearing this, both Li Shimin and Empress Changsun looked at Li Chengqian with puzzled eyes.
Li Chengqian slowly raised his head and looked directly at Li Shimin: "Jie failed to seek peace, so he became resentful and plotted to kidnap the Princess of the Tang Dynasty to hijack the Tang Dynasty."
"My child, let me ask my father, what should I do if I ignore the power of the Tang Dynasty?"
Looking at Li Chengqian, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes slightly, with murderous intent filling his eyes: "Use all the troops in the country to attack him..."
"The Mobei Turks were hit by a snowstorm the year before last, and they were hit by another snowstorm last year."
"This is an opportunity given to Tang Dynasty by God. God wants my father to kill that old guy Jie Li with his own hands."
"If my father doesn't respond, wouldn't it be against God's will?"
"In the past, there was the shame of the Wei River, and in the future, our children were assassinated."
"If my father doesn't raise his troops to attack the Northern Desert now, how long will it take?"
Li Chengqian's eyes became firm and he looked at Li Shimin.
At that moment, Li Shimin also understood what Li Chengqian meant.
He wants to fight the Northern Desert Turks, not just for a day or two.
Isn't now the best opportunity?
In this case, why not raise troops to attack?
Li Shimin slowly stood up, his imperial domineering aura seemed to make the air ripple.
"Declare war tomorrow, order generals the day after tomorrow, gather troops and horses, and have sufficient food and grass, then immediately send troops to attack the Northern Desert Turks!"
