In the palace, two sisters were fighting each other.
Although Princess Changle is delicate and thin, she is her elder sister after all. There is a lot of age difference, so she is naturally stronger. When they first met, she was pinched under her ribs and her body was soft, so she was pinned down. However, it didn't take long for her to turn defeat into victory.
He restrained Princess Jinyang and clamped her arms.
Although Princess Jinyang refuses to accept it, she is still young and her body is weak and her waist is soft and easy to push down...
"Sister, you hurt me."
"Hey, don't do this."
"Okay sister, I was wrong, please let me go, please?"
"It was you who grabbed my clothes!"
"But who told you to press me so hard?"
"Then let's let go together and I'll count one, two, three."
"OK."
"One, two, three...why don't you let go?"
"You didn't let it go either?"
"Xiao Nizi is cheating, I'm looking for a beating!"
…
When His Majesty Li Er stepped into the palace, he saw the scene in front of him. The two girls were entangled and struggling with each other, their hairpins were messed up and they were panting. Their two extremely beautiful faces were rosy, and they were shouting and shouting. No one was convinced.
who.
Seeing the imageless appearance of his eldest daughter, who had always been dignified and virtuous, His Majesty Li Er was surprised, but also filled with emotion.
This girl has been sensible since she was a child. As the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, she behaves appropriately, knows the rules and etiquette, and does her best to maintain a perfect image and maintain the dignity of the imperial princess in every word, deed, and smile.
Even when he was wronged, he never acted coquettishly or overbearingly, and was so virtuous that it made people feel distressed.
In His Majesty Li Er's memory, he has never seen Princess Changle behave in such an unscrupulous and almost dissolute manner.
This gave His Majesty Li Er a feeling of warmth surging from the bottom of his heart...
As a father, you have worked hard all your life. In addition to satisfying your own desires and ideals, you will inevitably think about creating a better life for your children and leaving a big legacy so that your children can live a lifetime of food and clothing.
Live happily.
However, he is rich all over the world, and no one in the world can have a richer and greater legacy than his. But do his children really have the corresponding happiness?
Ask yourself, the answer is not...
The female officer saw that her Royal Highness was still with Princess Jinyang, and did not notice the arrival of His Majesty the Emperor at all. She quickly took a small step forward and opened her mouth and said: "His Majesty has arrived. Please greet him quickly."
The two sisters who were still fighting froze for an instant, as if someone had tapped their acupoints. They both raised their heads and saw His Majesty Li Er standing at the door with his hands behind his back, with a strange look on his face and a deep gaze...
The two sisters quickly got up. Princess Jinyang ignored her crooked bun and walked briskly to His Majesty Li Er. She reached out to hold his arm and her beautiful face smiled like a flower: "Why is your father here? My daughter is still thinking about it.
I’ll go over and say hello to you later.”
Princess Changle also got up, reached out to tuck her messy bun, straightened her palace clothes, gathered her skirts and saluted, and said softly: "Daughter, please pay your respects to your father!"
Two red clouds appeared on her beautiful face. After all, for such a big person, it was really unseemly and a bit embarrassing for him to go crazy with Sizi.
If there were any nuns from the palace here, I'm afraid they would have scolded her on the spot for "losing all manners" and "disrespecting the king" as a princess, and possibly even punishing her...
His Majesty Li Er collected his attention, caressed Princess Jinyang's crooked bun, and said with a soft smile: "You two sisters are really fooling around. You are a majestic imperial princess with a noble status. If someone sees this,
He's as crazy as a green skin in the market, isn't it going to be a big joke?"
Just when Princess Jinyang was in a worried mood, thinking that her father would reprimand them, His Majesty Li Er changed the topic, stroking his beard and said: "But speaking of it, Sizi, you are obviously not good at this, and you are not smart! You were just beaten.
You are under pressure but have no power to fight back. If you can't beat her, how can you continue to provoke your sister? A good man doesn't suffer the immediate loss. If he knows that he can't beat him, he must give in decisively and get in touch with the crisis in front of him first, and then
Waiting for an opportunity to strike back and retaliate is the smart thing to do."
Princess Jinyang was dumbfounded and said in surprise: "Isn't this just cheating? You are so servile in front of your face, but you are sharpening your sword behind your back. You do one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes... Doesn't it make the heroes of the world laugh at you?"
His Majesty Li Er didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you a hero? You are just a little girl. You can completely ignore the moral principles of the world! Didn't you listen to Confucius? It is difficult to raise a woman with a villain. This woman can naturally be with you.
Like villains, they put moral rules aside and do whatever they want."
"Oh, my father is cursing! I don't obey!"
Princess Jinyang reacted and immediately shook His Majesty Li Er's arm with a coquettish look on her face.
Princess Changle on the side covered her lips and smiled.
…
Sitting on the floor mat, His Majesty Li Er looked at the two daughters sitting on the left and right, who were equally beautiful and graceful, clinging to his side like lotus flowers side by side. He suddenly felt proud and deeply comforted.
He looked at Princess Changle and said softly: "My father had a bad temper just now and scolded you, so he came here to apologize to you."
In the world, perhaps only the daughters he cares about the most can make the talented and powerful His Majesty Li Er look down so favorably...
Princess Changle was slightly startled and said quickly: "Why is the father like this? My daughter just felt something in her heart for a moment and was unfounded. So she tried to persuade her father without knowing the meaning of it, but she completely forgot that the father has everything in mind and the country and the people are all in his mind.
How can you not see such a simple truth? On the contrary, it is the daughter who is willful and makes her father angry, so the daughter should apologize."
Just now in the Dragon Palace, she made her father very angry with her harsh words, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, his father would actually come to the Shujing Palace to apologize to her...
Although I was moved in my heart, knowing that my father cherished me, and was afraid that I would become depressed because of it, I was more suspicious and surprised.
My father's temper is really dark and clear sometimes, it's hard to figure out, it's very different from before...
Princess Changle's smile was a little unnatural and she whispered: "My daughter doesn't dare..."
"Hey, what dare you? You can correct your mistakes and do good. As a father, you don't want to leave a domineering and tough impression in front of your children. We are a family, and a family must live in harmony and love each other. You need
Respect me as a father, but there should never be fear or resistance."
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand in a very grand manner.
Princess Changle smiled but didn't say much.
Since we are a family, why do we still insist on going our own way even though we know that it will be very difficult for our brother to die once he is transferred to the crown prince?
Zhinu is your son, isn’t the prince’s brother the same?
Seeing his daughter's beautiful face turn cold, His Majesty Li Er naturally understood what she was thinking. He sighed and said softly: "Li Zhi, sometimes you have to think about your father. A father is not only your father, but also your father."
The emperor of this empire must not only be kind to you, but also be responsible for the people of the world. An incompetent monarch is enough to cause the empire at its peak to collapse and fall apart in an instant. The empire will be shaken, and the mountains and rivers will be broken.
In the midst of war and poverty, you, the children of the royal family, will also be implicated. It’s all good if your fate is wandering. How can there be intact eggs under the overthrow of the nest? For the future of the empire, for your future, as a father, I have to consider many things."
Princess Jinyang blinked and couldn't help but said: "But hasn't the prince brother always done a good job? The government and the public have praised him, and the famous ministers and scholars have praised him. Why does my father still think that the prince brother has not done well?"
She had an innocent expression on her face, but she knew clearly in her heart that she was not completely ignorant of the struggle between the DPRK and China.
His Majesty Li Er was rarely patient today and explained softly: "It's not that the prince did not do well, but there is still some distance between the requirements of being a father. Maybe someone will do better... Besides, I can't do anything.
Everything depends on what the great scholars in the court said. Those people praised the prince for doing well, mostly because the prince's political views and actions were in line with their interests. They were doing it for themselves, not out of public concern."
Princess Changle suppressed her smile, sat upright, lowered her eyes, and said softly: "Aren't these the same great scholars who advised my father to cancel the ban on child slaves? When they said that the prince's brother had done a good job, my father
The emperor thinks that they have ulterior motives and may not be fair, but when they say that the young slave may be better than the prince's brother, why is the emperor willing to believe that they are motivated by public interests?"
Your Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, his face gloomy.
