"Second brother, tell me what you want from me."
Li Yuan ate oatmeal glutinous rice with an extremely calm voice.
"Father, you... do you know that the child has something to do with you?"
Li Shimin was a little surprised.
"It's okay, how could you step into this door? Something must be bothering you, and I am the only one who can give you advice on this matter. Only my father can give you advice, so you can overcome the fear in your heart and come here."
There is no better son than a father,
Even if Li Shimin hadn't seen him for several years, Li Yuan knew in just a few words the purpose of Li Shimin's visit.
In fact.
Li Shimin did have something to do with Li Yuan. Being scolded and criticized was secondary. There was something he couldn't judge, which was the reason why he made up his mind to come.
"That's right."
"Among the children, Gan'er has already been appointed as the crown prince. This was good, and allowed Gan'er to succeed to the throne in peace, but... something happened, and Kuan'er... has extremely powerful abilities."
"I'm afraid his abilities are not as good as those of the kid. The situation between their brothers is similar to the situation between the kid and... and that one. The kid himself can't judge. He doesn't know what his father thinks the kid should do?!"
Li Yuan's movement of eating noodles stagnated.
He put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Shimin with some surprise.
Li Shimin did not dare to look directly and lowered his head subconsciously.
A long while.
Li Yuan sighed and said, "This matter is like the fate of my Li family."
"Over the years, I even wonder, if I had not launched an army in Jinyang back then, and our family could have settled down to one-third of an acre of land, would the outcome have been different?!"
"Being an emperor, becoming the first family in the world, seems to be a blessing, controlling the life and death of others, and commanding the world's military, but the ending of my Li family is heart-wrenching."
"With power, that is, with power, how can there be family ties?!"
"When you were young, how deep was your relationship with your eldest brother? But power was like a squeeze of poison. It made you addicted, and it also made your eldest brother addicted. It made the two of you and brothers fight against each other. Not tolerated."
When Li Shimin heard this, he felt uncomfortable all over.
He didn’t know how to answer!!
Li Yuan probably knew what Li Shimin was thinking, so he did not dwell on the topic and continued: "Second brother, regarding Li Chengqian and Kuan'er, my father can only say that it is extremely difficult to balance a bowl of water."
"This is my father's experience. My father... I can only give you this advice. After all... I was a loser back then. Don't worry about what a loser thinks."
"However, Kuan'er, the power he has in his hands is not simple."
Li Shimin's eyes flickered: "Father, do you know Kuan'er?"
Li Yuan laughed: "Of course, this child likes to enjoy life. Sometimes when he thinks there is nothing to do, he will come to his father to go fishing, take a walk, etc."
"This kid, how can I put it... is too unmotivated. In his own words, life only lasts for a few decades. The emperor only has a few decades, and ordinary people only have a few decades. Why bother to live such a life?"
Tired?"
"The emperor needs to worry about national affairs. He needs to walk on thin ice and think twice before acting on matters such as national development, foreign relations, and the balance of domestic power. Such a life is so difficult and tiring?!"
"And he said that he was born as a prince, and he had everything he wanted, including women, wealth, and delicious food. Perhaps women would be a little lower than what the emperor enjoyed, but it was only a few. How happy would it be to have a carefree life?"<
/p>
"This is what he often said to his father. He also said that great grandfather, your life is fine and leisurely, even if the children are dead..."
"Okay, this kid can be quite venomous sometimes, but most of the time, he can still bring happiness to my father and me. With him...Father, I feel how happy my life was when the Li family was still ordinary people.
!"
"With this child by my side, the happiness of a family is probably nothing more than this."
Li Shimin was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Kuan'er confided so much to his father, but he never said a word to himself.
Think of what Wei Zheng said,
Li Shimin felt that as his father, he had really failed.
"Then Father, the power of Kuan'er's men..."
Li Shimin is extremely curious.
Li Yuan took another deep look at him and said calmly: "What I know is not very clear, and the child won't let me tell you. Anyway, you only need to know that this child is not simple. He only has a few people under his command, but he can make people do it."
The Lu family of Fan Yang feels like facing a formidable enemy."
"What! Kuan'er... Kuan'er!" Li Shimin's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Li Kuan had such extraordinary abilities.
Fan Yang Lushi.
That is one of the five surnames and seven hopes. There are so many children from this family? It can be said that they are all over the Tang Dynasty!!
As for Kuan'er, only a few people can defeat such a behemoth...
This great talent...
Horrible! Extremely terrible!!
"Actually, second brother, you don't need to worry. Kuan'er aspires to be no longer on the throne, and Li Chengqian... well, Li Chengqian's father doesn't like that child. His mask is too deep, and he is naturally alienated from his father, but anyway, Kuan'er doesn't
If there is any serious conflict with him, you can rest assured."
Li Yuan told the truth based on what he saw and heard.
Not motivated, but like to enjoy...
This is exactly the same as Li Kuan in Li Shimin's impression, and this time there is one more thing about Kuan'er's great talent.
Li Shimin secretly thought that he really made the right trip this time.
He was originally hesitant about how to arrange Li Chengqian and Li Kuan, but now he had preliminary ideas.
"But, having said that..."
Li Yuan changed the subject and said with a smile: "Kuan'er, this kid, hasn't come here recently. Why hasn't he come? Is he delayed? My father also wants to go fishing with him."
"Speaking of which, I feel very ashamed. Father, I was once a good fisherman, but I couldn't catch this kid. It's such a shame."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Father, Kuan'er left Chang'an due to some matters. When he comes back, I will have someone notify you immediately."
"Okay, you have your heart."
"Well, my dear father, my child is entangled in all kinds of trivial matters today, and the political affairs have not been dealt with yet. Otherwise, my child..."
"Go on, it's time to take a walk. Father will take care of yourself."
"Thank you, Father!!"
Li Shimin was pleasantly surprised, bowed with his hands, turned and left.
Looking at his back as he leaves in a hurry,
Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh, that brat Kuan'er is right, the life of a wise emperor is really not human, there are too many things that need to be dealt with.
When Li Shimin left and stepped out of the room, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes flickered, he turned around, and hesitated to speak, as if he was brewing something.
"Second brother, what else can I do?"
Li Yuan asked while eating.
"Father, have you ever hated a child?!"
Li Shimin was extremely nervous and worried.
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed at himself and said: "Second brother, it's all over now. In the words of Kuan'er, people should focus on the future and be content with what they have."
"I don't have long to live. Since I'm old, I should enjoy life and forget about other things. It's annoying to mention them, so it's better not to mention them."
Li Shimin's tense heartstrings relaxed and he said with a smile: "I know, kid. Next time, kid, I will come over to visit my father when I have time."
Turn around.
Outrageous.
No more procrastination.
After leaving.
Li Shimin smiled.
Laughing loudly!!!
It turns out that the things that I have worried about for several years are so...insignificant in the eyes of my father.
