But now, Li Er actually... actually found this child!
Li Yuan suddenly had nothing left in his mind.
"Where is my grandson? Where is my grandson now!?"
"Father, please don't get too excited. Sheng'er... he's fine now. Sit down first and I'll give you a good talk, okay?"
Li Yuan's eyes turned red and he finally sat down...
Li Er's eyes were also red. Ever since he showed his ambition to restore the glory of the Han Dynasty before and after the Battle of Jinyang,...
It’s been a long time since I had such a long conversation with Li Yuan.
You have to know that you...have been different from several brothers since you were young.
Several brothers serve the elderly at home, or go out to drink and play with their friends.
But Li Er started reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles in his early tenth year...
In fact, Li Yuan was very optimistic about Li Shiwen at first.
However... he lost his eldest son first, which made Li Yuan extremely disappointed.
Then there were countless ups and downs on the road to war, looking back at the hundreds of years since the Wei and Jin Dynasties when the land of China was sinking...
Li Yuan simply didn't know how he could muster the courage to support Li Er.
As an ordinary father, he can only and dares to let his children and grandchildren be the guardians of the throne. Living a peaceful life is better than anything else...
So……
We had no choice but to part ways.
All I can say is that it is a human tragedy...
Li Er calmed down his emotions and said.
"My father didn't know something in the palace. This year, many things happened in the Tang Dynasty..."
"First, I opened the imperial examination..."
"Have you started the imperial examination?!"
Li Yuan was very excited and wanted to hear news about his grandson.
As a result, Li Er's first words almost shocked Li Yuan's brain.
Is this little bastard crazy?
"No, Li Shimin, are you crazy? You are responsible for most of the country's defeat, and now you are causing trouble like this, you don't want to live anymore? Have you forgotten how this idiot Sui Yang died??"
Li Yuan simply hates the fact that iron cannot become steel.
Those aristocratic families are deeply rooted and cannot be messed with!
but……
Although Li Yuan's words were serious, Li Er just smiled gently and continued talking...
"After I resumed the imperial examination... the price of paper books in Chang'an began to suddenly increase. In just a few days, the price inexplicably increased more than ten times, and the scholars all over the world were filled with resentment..."
"You rebellious son! My father told you long ago..."
"Father, I haven't finished speaking yet. Then, not long after, the price of pen and ink began to skyrocket, and the price of a piece of ink rose to nearly a hundred guan..."
"you!……"
"Subsequently, I issued an edict to reform the Xuanjia Army, abolishing the infantry with average combat power and replacing them all with the Xuanjia cavalry with the highest combat power... But when the armor was being built, the price of the fine iron increased.
It started to skyrocket..."
"you!"
Following Li Er’s statement.
Li Yuan was furious at the beginning, but gradually... he became ashen-faced.
The whole person's face looked like a zombie... pale.
The eyes are empty.
"Oh, my Li family, my Li family... my ancestors..."
Li Yuan burst into tears.
Looking back at Li Er, his eyes wanted to eat him alive.
Extremely disappointed.
What a prodigal!
Do you think that the Tang Dynasty is too long or that your life is too long?
Isn’t this going to be a raging fire all over the place?!
Li Yuan closed his eyes directly.
"Tell me, how many people are rebelling against the king now?"
"Father, the world is peaceful today, and there is no rebellion against the king."
Li Er smiled and answered directly.
Li Yuan opened his eyes instantly,
"Um?"
"Are you deceiving me into staying in the palace and knowing nothing about the outside world? How can anyone in the world rebel against your actions?"
"Father...there is really no one rebelling."
"The price of paper, pen and ink skyrocketed, but soon fell back; the price of refined iron skyrocketed, and the same happened in the end."
"this……"
Li Yuan was stunned,
How can this be?
According to what Li Er said... "The skyrocketing price of this paper, pen and ink is clearly someone who wants to sabotage your imperial examination. And the skyrocketing price of fine iron is also obvious... someone is clearly trying to sabotage you."
Military power."
"Those who can do these things must be from the Five Surnames and Qiwang... But how can they let you go so easily?"
Li Yuan's mind simply couldn't turn around.
It was the imperial examination and the military reform, and countless new policies were promulgated in less than a year.
Don't say it's you Li Er.
Even if Liu Bang and Liu Che are reincarnated, I'm afraid it won't be possible at all.
Not only is it impossible to do it, but there is also the worry of national subjugation!
But all this... can actually be settled.
Isn't this a joke? It's simply impossible.
"Erlang, tell me the truth to Dad, what exactly happened?"
"Haha..." Li Er finally smiled proudly and suddenly said, "Father, aren't we talking about Sheng'er? How come my father is interested in the government affairs again?"
"What do you mean..."
"good."
Li Er suddenly looked solemn, sat upright and said...
"All this is due to Sheng'er!"
Li Yuan opened his mouth wide and was speechless for a long time.
Liu Bang, Liu Che...the things that these outstanding figures couldn't do, actually...
Sheng'er, who had been separated for many years, did it????
Oh my god...
Li Yuan became excited instantly and grabbed Li Er's shoulders.
"Quick, talk to father in detail!"
"Father wants to know everything about Sheng'er!"
Li Er smiled... He was indeed not as favored as Sheng Er, and then he slowly said with emotion...
"Although my father is in the palace, I wonder if my father has ever heard anyone in the palace mention that there was a poetry immortal in Chang'an?"
"This Immortal of Poetry is also an Immortal of Musical Instruments, a Confucian Immortal, and a Martial Arts Immortal... Recently, he won the Buddhist disciple of Hongluo Temple in debate, and was even worshiped by the Buddhist disciples as the living true Buddha."
"This person……"
Li Yuan looked cute, "Could it be..."
Li Er chuckled.
"Yes, it's Sheng'er!"
Li Yuan was dumbfounded.
What the hell...oh my god...
"Quickly, let the father see Sheng'er!"
"This boy's talent is clearly that of Zhuge... No, Gui Gu, no..."
"This boy is clearly like Yao and Shun!"
Li Yuan couldn't believe it and said in great shock.
"If this child...wouldn't it be..."
"Erlang, listen carefully, remember!"
"From now on, in our country of the Tang Dynasty, we no longer need to have any aristocratic families, only my Li family!"
"There must not be any threats outside the borders of the Tang Dynasty."
"Once discovered, all will be wiped out!"
Li Yuan was so happy that he looked like he was going crazy.
Li Er was confused, "Father, these must be done step by step. We are still making preparations. How can we act in a hurry..."
"Shut up! I, the Tang Dynasty, have the qualifications now!"
"What you can't do, Erlang, God will leave it to Sheng'er to do! Hahahahahahaha!"
