He said: "It seems that your brother's problem will not be solved in a short while."
"yes."
"But it's okay."
Li Chengqian chuckled and said: "At least after this conversation, we understand the crux of Kedi's problem."
"It's nothing more than jealousy and hatred."
"They only saw how kind I was to you, but they never saw how harsh I was to you."
Li Shimin put his hands behind his back and said, "But what you said also made me reflect on my own problems."
"For many years, I have only focused on making you a talented person, but I have completely ignored your age."
Li Shimin looked back at Li Chengqian and said: "In the final analysis, you are just a teenager..."
He really wanted to say that it was his father who was too harsh on you these years, and it was his father who was sorry for you.
But the words came to his lips, but they were not spoken after all.
Because he is still the face-conscious Li Shimin, these words cannot come out of his mouth.
But who is Li Chengqian?
His ability to understand people's hearts is still there.
Based on his understanding of Li Shimin and just seeing Li Shimin's expression, he had actually guessed what his father wanted to express.
He pursed his lips, then smiled and said: "Teenage is enough."
"Didn't my father lead his troops to the battlefield when he was just a teenager and follow his grandfather to conquer the country and fight in the north and south?"
"And if we really compare, my sons and ministers are far inferior to my father."
"At the very least, when my father was eighteen years old, half of the world was conquered by him."
Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but laugh out loud.
He raised his hand and patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder, saying: "Then work hard, follow in your father's footsteps, and make contributions to our Tang Dynasty."
After saying that, he didn't care about Li Chengqian's expression and walked down the stairs and got into the carriage he came from.
Seeing Li Shimin leave, Li Chengqian scratched his head. This guy doesn't seem to be planning to take him with him...
Li Chengqian couldn't help but sigh, and stepped down the stairs, preparing to walk back to the East Palace.
But before he could take a step forward, a figure appeared behind him.
Without looking back, Li Chengqian could probably guess who the person was.
He said without looking back: "You girl, where have you been in the past six months, and you didn't even mention coming to see me?"
"What a fart."
"With so many elite soldiers and generals protecting you, do you still need me?"
No need to look, no need to ask, just listen to the attitude of the words, who else could it be if it wasn't Yuan Yuan?
Yuan Yuan has never appeared again since we parted ways in Jiangnan.
It was as if the world had evaporated. Even if Li Chengqian was in danger again, this guy didn't jump out to protect her like before.
Of course, Li Chengqian didn't mean that he had to let her protect him.
However, after not seeing her for a long time, Li Chengqian himself missed her a little.
Li Chengqian slowly turned around, glanced at Yuan Yuan, and then said: "You are still wearing the white clothes that look like mourning, can't you change?"
"Change?"
"Why change?"
Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes and then said: "And I feel that white clothes suit me better."
"Suitable for shit."
"Let's change into blue tomorrow."
Li Chengqian put his hands behind his back and walked forward, minding his own business: "Would you like to find a place with me for a drink?"
"It's okay to drink tea, but forget about drinking."
Yuan Yuan walked to Li Chengqian's side and walked side by side with him, saying: "I have something to do later."
"You have no official status and no property, so what can you do?"
"Could it be that I have received another mission to take someone's head?"
Li Chengqian stopped
, looked at Yuan Yuan and said: "If possible, you might as well not do this."
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't you support me?"
"I will support you."
Li Chengqian also added: "Don't worry, I can support you."
"How about you be my guard from now on?"
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan was stunned.
Then, she couldn't help but shook her head and smiled bitterly: "If you had said this two years ago, I might have really agreed."
"shit!"
"I told you a long time ago."
Li Chengqian said bluntly: "But you little girl never agreed."
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but blush.
Obviously, she knew that the excuse she came up with was a bad one.
However, Yuan Yuan did not mince words and said directly: "You are the prince, you must not have people like me around you, otherwise it will be bad for your reputation."
"reputation?"
"Fame has always been nothing to me, Li Chengqian."
"Do you think I ever cared?"
Li Chengqian pointed to the teahouse in front and said, "But since you said you want to drink tea, let's drink tea and chat for a while."
…
Inside the teahouse.
Li Chengqian and Yuan Yuan sat opposite each other.
Wait until the store brings tea and snacks.
Li Chengqian asked straight to the point: "You haven't answered me yet, where have you been in the past six months?"
"I was thinking of going to the Northeast Road."
"But after thinking about it carefully, I decided to go to the Western Regions."
Yuan Yuan gently picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of tea and said, "Your friend's situation seems to be very bad."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was stunned.
Then, he reacted.
Who could his friend be?
The only one left is Zhao Youlin. However, Li Chengqian didn't say much, he just listened to Yuan Yuan's words quietly.
"He also wants to carry out reforms like you."
"But your method seems to be completely unworkable in Western Turks."
"So now, rebellions are raging within the Western Turks, and he is struggling with this matter."
Yuan Yuan eloquently explained the current situation in Western Turks.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled.
He said: "This is quite normal. After all, Zhao Youlin's area of expertise is not internal affairs."
"And what we have in the Tang Dynasty is not suitable for the Western Turks."
Speaking of this, Li Chengqian paused while holding the tea bowl, and then said: "But I also want to see what kind of Western Turks Zhao Youlin can create in the end."
"You can do it."
"Looking at the sanctimonious look on your face, I don't know how magnanimous you are."
Yuan Yuan glanced at Li Chengqian with contempt on his face.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian was a little confused and said: "What's the matter, am I not generous?"
"Magnificence, magnanimity."
"But you dare to say that the rebellion within the Western Turks has nothing to do with you?"
Yuan Yuan rolled his eyes and said: "I have heard about it. There are several tribes in the Western Turks with the surname Li..."
"Um……"
"The surname Li does not mean that I am Li Chengqian."
Li Chengqian said with an innocent face: "Maybe it's Li San, Li Si, Li Zilong?"
"Definitely."
"Since you don't want to talk about it, I'm too lazy to talk to you about it."
"These days, things are not peaceful in the world."
"You'd better be careful, because someone is already looking at your head."
Yuan Yuan took a deep look at Li Chengqian and said, "When you go out, it's best to bring more guards."
There was one sentence that Yuan Yuan did not say, but told Li Chengqian through his eyes.
At the very least, you have to wait until I come back from my work...
