The first free king of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 302 The father and son meet, time has changed

Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, inside the imperial city, the Da'an Palace.

At this time of year, the Daan Palace is already covered in silver.

In terms of the entire imperial city, Da'an Palace is considered the most extravagant palace, even in the past three years, Li Shimin's internal funds have no money.

The supply of expenses for Da'an Palace has never been reduced.

Even the Hundred Beasts Garden in Da'an Palace, where rare animals are raised, has a huge sum every month.

After entering the Tai'an Palace, Li Shimin's face became more and more serious, obviously it was the meeting of father and son.

But it's like a battle of swords and swords...

"Your Majesty, where? Is it the Supreme Emperor!"

Cheng Yaojin, who was following behind Li Shimin, suddenly pointed to a mourning lakeside, and said in a low voice.

Li Shimin looked up——

Over there, there was an old man sitting by the Mingxin Lake in the middle of Da'an Palace.

At this moment, Mingxin Lake has already been frozen, and the willow trees on both sides are covered with heavy snow strips.

The solemn and solemn Palace of Hundred Palaces in the past seems to suddenly have a little more human atmosphere from the outside.

Surrounded by stone railings made of marble, a marble fishing case was built in the north of the lake.

Behind it is the main hall gate of the main hall of Da'an Palace, under the high hall and beside the lake.

An old man, wearing a fur coat, not even wearing a crown, with gray hair and vicissitudes of life.

Just a simple wooden stool, the old man just sat there.

Her waist was already bent, she looked at the desolation of Mingxin Lake, and remained motionless.

The snowflakes are fluttering, and the world is silent.

It seems solemn and desolate, and it seems that the world is clear...

Qin Qiong glanced at Li Shimin beside him: "Your Majesty, this..."

Li Shimin looked at it for a while, then waved his hand.

"Oh, no need, I'll go alone..."

"Then Your Majesty, the minister will wait and respond. If there is any change, call the minister to wait at any time!"

"it is good--"

Li Shimin said in a confused state of mind, and then walked directly towards the shore of Mingxin Lake.

Qin Qiong asked in a deep voice, this is the grievance between their father and son for many years, no one can ask, they just need to be good guards.

Anyway, there are already three hundred Xuanjia soldiers around, and he and Cheng Yaojin are getting close at any moment.

should--

nothing will change...

Li Shimin approached slowly, looking at the old figure who was already a little bent.

That brow has never relaxed...

close...

getting closer...

Li Shimin walked behind Li Yuan and pondered for a long time.

For the first time since ascension to the throne, he bowed his head to a person——

"Unfilial son Li Shimin, pay homage to Father!"

Greetings to the Royal Father...

It seemed that Li Yuan's body trembled at that moment, but the nearest Li Shimin lowered his head, and no one could see it...

"Oh, I didn't expect that after becoming an emperor, I would still have the guts to come here alone? Why, aren't you afraid that I will plot against you?"

Li Yuan, who had his back to Li Shimin, spoke indifferently, sounding indifferent and heartless...

Who would have thought that this was the tone of a father speaking to his son.

"I don't have any guts, I just believe that my father won't do this..."

"Oh, you, Li Shimin, are not courageous. There are no courageous people in the world. When you rushed into Da'an Palace from Xuanwu Gate, you are so obedient now—"

"Father..."

Li Shimin had already raised his head. Hearing these words, he couldn't respond.

Seeing that Li Shimin was silent, Li Yuan stood up gently.

Step forward directly, the direction is in the middle of Mingxin Lake.

The surface of the lake has long been frozen, and even after stepping on it, there is a slight friction sound, but it is still very solid.

Li Shimin groaned, and followed directly...

on the ice...

Li Yuan moved forward, and Li Shimin followed behind.

Father and son, neither of them said anything...

For the father and son, neither of them thought to speak first...

Li Yuan's face was cold and serious, facing the snowflakes with his hands behind his back, he walked forward step by step without stopping.

Li Shimin frowned and clenched his fists tightly. When he stepped on the ice, no one knew what would happen.

Every step forward, the closer to the center of the lake...

With every step forward, Li Shimin could hear his own heartbeat.

With every step forward, the sweat in Li Shimin's fists increased...

The father and son walked to the center of the lake. Suddenly, Li Yuan stopped.

"That's right, I didn't expect you to follow me..."

Li Shimin didn't speak.

Li Yuan looked at Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin on the shore, as well as the guards with tense faces.

He smiled coldly.

"Ha ha……"

"Erlang, you and my father and son haven't seen each other for two years and seven months..."

The sound of "Erlang" directly made Li Shimin's pupils stare and his body tremble.

He quickly replied: "It's been two years and seven months since I returned to my father——"

In fact, Li Shimin himself can't remember how long it has been, but he just responded to his father's words.

Li Shimin, who has sat on the dragon chair of the Taiji Hall for nearly three years and holds the imperial power in his hands, is really like the son of a secular family at this moment.

Looking at the desolate world of ice and snow, Li Yuan said slowly.

"Pei Ji went to the palace these two days to fear that I would catch the cold, so I told me about some outside affairs, and only then did I know that a lot of interesting things happened outside..."

"You emperor... do better than me..."

This sentence seemed to weigh a thousand catties, like the peak of Mount Tai, directly hitting Li Shimin's heart.

It made his nose sour, and his heart was churning without knowing what it meant.

"My son just did what a monarch should do, thank you father for your appreciation..."

"From Rou'er, you found this?"

Li Yuan took out a pair of glasses from his bosom, it was the reading glasses that Li Shimin asked Li Lirou and his juniors to give to Li Yuan.

"Yes, father, this is something that my ministers got by chance when they left the palace. It has a miraculous effect. Let Rou'er and the others send it to father..."

Li Yuan slowly put the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, as if the world became clear at this moment.

He turned around slowly, and what caught his eyes was Li Shimin, who was much taller and stronger, and already had the domineering aura of a monarch that was not lost to him back then.

I don't know what kind of thoughts are in my heart, in the end, I can only nod in silence.

"I heard that that girl Rou'er is already engaged? I don't know who it is from?"

"Father, the one who made a marriage contract with Rou'er...is a folk kid..."

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows fiercely, and couldn't help asking: "Folk boy?!! What's going on?"

"Father..."

The father and son chatted directly in this icy world, and what they talked about was just a family matter.

No one had time to lead the conversation to the court, or the matter of Li Shimin's seizure of the throne!

In the distance, the marble stone railing by the lake.

Qin Qiong also slowly relaxed the hand holding the golden mace around his waist, looking at the father and son who seemed to be negotiating in an orderly manner for a while, his spirit also relaxed.

This is the most reassuring...

It seems that the first emperor also slowly let go of his hatred of seizing the throne and killing his son.

Alas, who can say clearly about this kind of thing, after all, His Majesty is also his own son.

On the other hand, Cheng Yaojin saw that the situation had calmed down, so he pinched his nostrils and said loudly.

"Second brother, what do you think His Majesty and his son are talking about? The former emperor is now asking His Majesty to settle accounts, right? This is all a matter of old rot..."

After finishing speaking, he threw two small lumps of dark things into Mingxin Lake~
Qin Qiong, who was contemplating, suddenly heard Cheng Yaojin yelling from the side, and couldn't help but turn dark, the good atmosphere was broken by you idiot.
