As soon as Xue Wanche was carried away, His Majesty Li Er was still thinking about Fang Jun's words, when a chamberlain came to report and the prince came to see him. His Majesty Li Er naturally summoned him, but he was inevitably suspicious in his heart. Could it be that the prince was also involved in this matter?
The nature is very different...
He could tolerate Fang Jun's pretense for personal gain, and he could tolerate Xue Wanche's stupidity, but he would never tolerate it if there was any instruction from the prince.
As the Crown Prince of the East Palace, you have the Sixth Guards of the East Palace to rule, but you insert your hand into the Sixteenth Guards. What do you want to do?
Sitting behind the desk, His Majesty Li Er looked a little gloomy as he watched the prince walk in from the door.
In the past two years, the prince has been diagnosed and treated by Sun Simiao. The foot disease is no longer as serious as before. It is naturally impossible to recover as before. But at least there is not much pain when walking, and the rain and snow are not as painful as usual.
His face looks much better.
Li Chengqian was already handsome, but because he was too depressed and angry in the past, his temperament inevitably tended to be gloomy, which made people look very uncomfortable. However, now, although there is not much expression on Bai Yuye's cheeks,
He has sparse eyebrows and bright eyes. Even though he is lame, he still looks graceful and handsome. He is like a handsome young man in troubled times, with a rich spirit like jade.
The gloomy atmosphere in His Majesty Li Er's heart dissipated in an instant...
What could make an emperor feel more comfortable than seeing his heir becoming more and more promising?
A smile overflowed from His Majesty Li Er's lips. When the prince came forward and bowed, he rarely walked out from behind the desk, took the prince's hand, sat down at the desk next to the window, and first ordered the servants to burn incense.
After having tea and snacks, he said to the prince with a smile: "It has been cold recently and there has been heavy snowfall. Will my son's foot disease relapse?"
The prince was quite flattered and said quickly: "Thank you for your concern, father. I am afraid... Thanks to Master Sun's medical skills, he has repeatedly used acupuncture to adjust the veins of my son this year, and supplemented it with medicine and stones to sort out the vitality, so the injured areas have been healed."
He recovered very quickly. Apart from the occasional pain, he can walk normally without any serious problems. However, with this disabled body, even though Master Sun is a scholar of heaven and man, he is unable to do anything. This makes my father worried, and it is an unfilial son and minister."
The foot disease was not only a pain in his heart, but also the biggest disappointment to His Majesty Li Er.
The majestic crown prince of a country will succeed to the throne and hold the sun and moon in his hands, but he has a disabled body, which really undermines the majesty of the Tang Dynasty. On more than one occasion, the emperor expressed his disappointment and sorrow for his foot disease.
The thought of easy storage that arises frequently is closely related to foot problems...
However, today, His Majesty Li Er not only did not show the slightest trace of disappointment, but instead comforted him with gentle words: "The fate of a person is dictated by God. All kinds of encounters are caused by God's hardships to strengthen his will. Only those who can withstand all kinds of hardships
Only men can take on big responsibilities and make contributions. My son should not let his feet become dejected and demoralized. Because of this, he must work harder to improve himself. The so-called disabled body but strong will can make the world admire him more than those who are physically strong.
Even in the history of history, it can be remembered for thousands of years."
"My father's words, I dare not or forget them in this life! I will definitely obey my father's will, work conscientiously, work hard, and will not be decadent because of my disability, nor will I be arrogant because of my life experience, nor will I be cruel and tyrannical because of my noble blood..."
Li Chengqian was so excited that his eyes filled with tears. He quickly got up and left the table, knelt at the feet of His Majesty Li Er, and spoke in a sonorous tone to express his ambition.
The "Yi Chu" crisis that has been shrouding his heart for a long time, after his father said these words, means that there will be no more troubles. His position as the crown prince is already extremely solid, as long as he does not lose his mind and commit suicide.
, no one will be able to shake this position.
His Majesty Li Er chuckled, stretched out his hand to pull his eldest son up, and asked him to sit down, and then asked: "Did Fang Jun come to see you and talk about the royal seal of King Silla?"
Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "I did mention it... My father and I think that it is the best choice for the third brother to go to Silla to inherit the throne, both for the stability of the Tang Dynasty's borders and for the third brother himself.
The advantages outweigh the disadvantages. We brothers are all of the flesh and blood of our father. This world was conquered by our father. Naturally, everyone should have a share, and children and ministers should not dare to take it as their own... However, if you are born in the heavenly family, family matters
It is also a state matter. Even if I have the intention of being humble, I have to put the safety of the empire and the future of the country first. But whether it is Qingque, third brother, or even a child slave, they are all my brothers and sisters, and my father and emperor.
The foundation is shouldered by my sons and ministers, but the brothers have to sit idle, unable to extend their talents, and wasting away their ambitions to become a rich and idle king... I feel guilty in my heart! If the third brother can become the master of Silla, it will be the same.
The bones and blood of my father are scattered all over the world. Thousands of years later, the world has changed, and no one knows the rise and fall of the country. But the bones and blood of my father are spread all over the world, and the Tang Dynasty will last forever!"
"Okay, okay, okay!"
His Majesty Li Er praised him three times, feeling extremely relieved.
Whether it is the prince, Qingque, Li Ke, Zongnu, or even Li Zhen, Li Min and other princes, they are all his flesh and blood. As a father, how could he not love him? In that bloody battle under the Xuanwu Sect, he
Although he gained this splendid country, he also cut off the brotherhood and endured the scorn of the world. Every time he dreamed about it at midnight, he would see the bloody Prince Jiancheng, Qi Wang Yuanji crying and shouting to fight for him, while the two brothers stayed together.
The young man was whimpering, which made his hair stand on end...
At that time, he was forced by the situation and had no choice but to do so.
But now, he absolutely does not want that scene to happen again to his sons!
The prince has a weak character, and may not be able to expand the territory and build a large empire like himself, but with the help of ministers such as Fang Jun, Ma Zhou, etc., maintaining the empire will not be a problem. It is this weak character that makes the prince's situation
There is a lot of indecision, which may be a big disadvantage when it comes to state affairs, but it becomes the best advantage when it comes to his brothers, because he can't be ruthless!
"In this case, when the court meeting is held, my son will hand over a memorial and recommend Ke'er to be the king of Silla."
"Here!"
"What else can I do, my son?"
"For the record, my father, I have a private matter..."
"oh?"
His Majesty Li Er raised his eyebrows and was quite surprised: "You might as well talk about it and listen to it, as long as you don't go too far, my father agreed."
The relationship between every father and his eldest son in the world seems not to be harmonious. It's not that they don't have a good relationship with each other, but there are always some barriers that make communication always unsatisfactory. This is the same for fathers and sons in the world.
In His Majesty Li Er's memory, it seems that the Crown Prince has never spoken about private matters in front of him...
This interested him very much.
Could it be that he fell in love with someone's girl and asked his father to come forward to propose marriage? It is not impossible. Generally speaking, such matters are naturally under the jurisdiction of the queen, but after the death of Queen Changsun, he never appointed a queen, resulting in no queen in the harem.
Lord, it’s a surprise that the prince begged him...
Regarding such matters, His Majesty Li Er has never disciplined or restrained his son, because he himself is a lustful person and is not qualified to teach others. In the past two years, he heard that the daughter of the Xu family in the Great Wall was beautiful and clever, so he couldn't bear it and turned
She was summoned to the palace, accepted as a talented person, and was later named Jieyu. Not long ago, she was promoted to Chongrong, doubling her favor.
The so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. This is probably the case...
Li Chengqian said casually: "Xu Jingzong, a member of Zhongshushe, has two twin girls. The day before yesterday, my son and I were drinking and enjoying the snow with Qingque and Fang Jun by the Qujiang Pool. We met by chance. They are indeed a pair of beauties with a loving heart...
…”
"no!"
Before he could finish speaking, His Majesty Li Er had flatly refused.
For Xu Jingzong, His Majesty Li Er deeply loved his talent, but he despised his character and was always vigilant. How could he allow Xu Jingzong's daughter to enter the East Palace? With Xu Jingzong here, it would be difficult to ensure that the prince's palace would not be peaceful in the future, and disaster would arise.
Palace, day and night!
Moreover, with Xu Jingzong’s qualifications, how many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty will be able to rule?
Absolutely not!
"It is not because of my father's interference in the affairs of my son's palace. If you are a gentle lady and a gentleman, as long as you can always exercise restraint and avoid being licentious and immoral, my father will not interfere too much. However, I will definitely not interfere with the daughter of Xu Jingzong! If my son
If there are other candidates, you might as well include them in the East Palace, and my father will never interfere."
Li Chengqian was stunned, blinking his eyes, wondering whether to laugh or cry: "Father has misunderstood. It's not that I'm jealous of my son, but that Fang Jun entrusted me to ask for a decree from my father..."
"Asshole!"
His Majesty Li Er became more and more angry and shouted: "How courageous he is! He has fallen in love with someone else's daughter, and he just wants to marry it and bring it home. How dare he encourage the prince to come forward for him and ask me to marry him? He
Who does he think he is, that he regards you and me as his slaves? This is simply unreasonable! Come here, capture this bastard and bring him to the palace. I won’t stop until I beat him today until his mother doesn’t even recognize him!”
"Here!"
Hearing this, the Imperial Guards outside the Suwei Hall quickly responded. Several of them turned around and left the palace to capture Fang Jun. They could not help but admire Fang Jun in their hearts. This man was simply too capable. His Majesty would get mad if he was not provoked for a day.
A few fires will make life impossible, right?
Li Chengqian was stunned.
Dad, when did I tell Fang Jun that he wanted to marry Xu Jingzong’s daughter?
