Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 214 Some people are alive, but he is dead; some people are dead, but he is still alive...

In the Legislative Hall.

All the maids and servants retreated.

Empress Changsun began to speak slowly.

Count down the past!

Although more than ten years have passed.

Some people, some things!
This life, after all, will never go away!
At the end, Empress Changsun couldn't help but burst into tears.

Even Li Shimin, who was beside him, sighed endlessly.

"Qingque, there was really no way for the father and mother back then..."

"The queen mother has tried her best to lobby between your grandpa and uncle in an attempt to obtain a stable situation."

"Facts have proved that it is too difficult to be safe in the emperor's house..."

"Your father has many famous officials, and there are even more powerful generals. They have been squeezed one by one, and everyone is even in danger..."

"The Prince Qin's Mansion back then was on the cusp of the storm..."

"Even your royal father was almost framed by poison..."

"At the critical moment, Uncle Ni, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui strongly urged your father to walk on that road..."

"At that time, the queen mother was by your father's side, and the mother saw the tears rolling in your father's eyes..."

"Qingque, Queen Mother knows how difficult it is for your father to make such a decision."

"Since there is no way out, the queen mother will naturally stand firmly by your father's side..."

"On that day, the queen mother locked you, Chengqian, and Changle in the room..."

"Qingque, the queen mother still remembers that you cried the most painfully..."

"You called your mother every sound, sobbing and not letting her leave you..."

"Mother, why are you willing to leave Qingque? Why are you willing to leave your children?"

"The empress is reluctant, really reluctant, the empress is ready to commit suicide, once your father is defeated, the empress will not be able to live..."

Big tears rolled down the cheeks of Empress Changsun.

It also made Li Shimin and Li Tai cry on the spot.

"When the news of your father's success came, the queen mother let go of the dagger in her hand and collapsed on the ground..."

"At that moment, the queen mother did not have any joy of success, but only the sorrow of living again."

"Even when your father returns, your father..."

"He also hugged his mother tightly and burst into tears..."

"The queen mother knows that your father is suffering, very bitter..."

"Qingque, knowing your mother, why did you say these things to you today?"

"Qingque, do you know why your father didn't tell you these words?"

"Because of the pain in your father's heart, the empress mother knows best."

"How many nights, your father would wake up in a dream, and the queen mother saw your father many times, secretly sobbing in the middle of the night..."

"Qingque, the reason why the empress mother told you this today is because the emperor father and the empress do not want the tragedy of the past to happen again..."

"You are all the children of the father and the mother, the father and the mother, I don't want any of you to be hurt."

"Father and mother, I don't want to lose any of you..."

"I don't want to break my heart and liver again..."

…………

Li Tai's obese body trembled more and more, and big drops of tears dripped down on the floor.

Puff.

Li Tai fell to his knees directly.

"Royal father, queen mother..."

"Qingque knows what to do..."

"Qingque doesn't want to break the hearts of father and mother..."

"Qingque's heart will also be broken..."

Empress Changsun squatted down halfway, and embraced Li Tai in her arms.

"Qingque, the queen's good child, the queen's good child..."

This moment, this situation!
Li Shimin turned around, and Dou Da's tears also rolled down.

Li Shimin is really lucky in his life to have a queen like Guanyin's maidservant.

It is the great fortune of Li Shimin's life to have such a great son like King Qin.

If he hadn't cured Guanyin's maidservant's qi disease.

Today, who will enlighten Qingque?

Today, who can stop Qingque from the brink?

.........

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun watched Li Tai leave the Lizheng Hall.

Li Tai's pace was obviously lighter than before, perhaps because he relieved the psychological pressure and felt relaxed.

"Guanyin servant girl, thank you..."

"If it wasn't for you, the conversation between me and Qingque would definitely not have such a good effect."

Li Shimin took out his handkerchief and personally wiped the tears from the corners of Empress Changsun's eyes.

"Erlang, you are all from your own family, why should you say thank you so much?"

"If it weren't for the root, the life of the concubine would have been gone long ago..."

"Since the concubine is still alive and well, it is natural for them to respect each other and live in harmony..."

"Well... this is the result I most hope to see..."

Li Shimin embraced Empress Changsun in his arms.

He picked up his beloved concubine and walked to the bed.

...............

Luntai City, inside the Governor's Mansion.

Li Gen and Li Yuan sat facing each other, and the grandfather and grandson were also having a long talk.

Li Yuan has already read all the two letters that Wei Zheng asked Fei Ge to bring.

Li Shimin's decision was somewhat beyond Li Yuan's expectation.

"Eldest grandson, are you really ready to forgive your father?"

Li Gen nodded vigorously when he heard the words, and said.

"Grandpa, maybe grandson, never really hated him..."

"Back then, it was just a mouthful of resentment..."

"As Ji Xiang, Ru Yi, and Chang An grow up, my grandson can feel more and more that being a father is really not easy..."

"The grandson can also understand the difficult choices made by grandpa and the pain in his heart..."

"Grandpa, although my father has lied to me for many years..."

"Now that I think about it, as the king of a country, he wants to get more secrets and technologies from me, to promote the development of Tang Dynasty, and to improve the lives of the people..."

"My grandson thinks it's not an unforgivable thing to think about it in another place."

"What's more, now that the emperor has made it clear that he wants to make me the crown prince, it can be seen that in his heart, he has always valued me very much."

"Grandpa, after all, the identity of the grandson is not a direct descendant. The identity of the eldest son has always been the most tragic identity. Throughout the ages, almost no one can die well..."

"This alone, grandson, is enough to forgive him for all the harm he has brought to grandson..."

Hearing what Li Gen said, Li Yuan smiled and nodded.

"Good, great good... Grandson, if everyone thinks like you, the world will be much more stable."

"Grand grandson, grandpa wants to remind you that your father is a very fickle person..."

"Until the last moment, the final result is really unpredictable..."

Hearing what Grandpa said, Li Gen nodded with a smile and said.

"Grandpa, don't worry, the grandson has already made enough plans, it's not difficult, the grandson will not take any action."

Li Yuan nodded upon hearing this.

"In that case, Grandpa can rest assured."

"Grandpa has no other thoughts in his life. His only wish is to see with his own eyes the day you ascend the throne and become emperor..."

"Grandpa knows that only you can protect Li Tang's country forever, and only you can protect everyone in Li Tang's family."

"Grandpa, grandson will not let you down."

Li Gen nodded vigorously.

Counting with his fingers, the relative who stayed with him the longest turned out to be his gray-haired grandfather.

Suddenly there was the cooing of carrier pigeons outside.

Li Gen knew that there must be a flying pigeon passing the letter.

"Grandpa, please wait for a moment. It should be the Prince of Jiangxia County who has entrusted his father-in-law to reply."

Sure enough, Li Gen did not expect it.

The letter tied to the pigeon's leg was the handwritten letter of Jiangxia County King Li Daozong.

The letter is divided into two letters, one is addressed to Li Gen.

The other letter was, of course, addressed to his beloved daughter Li Xueyan and her son-in-law Xue Rengui whom he had never met.

Li Gen opened the letter he wrote to himself, and handed another letter to Wang Xuance, asking him to send it to Xue's residence.

After reading Li Daozong's letter, Li Gen nodded with a smile.

"Grandpa, as expected by my grandson, my father has agreed to let Hejian County King and Jiangxia County King come to Luntai City together."

Hearing this, Li Yuan's expression was somewhat unnatural.

Li Daozong came, but nothing happened.

Is it Lee Hyo-gong?

There was a misunderstanding between Li Yuan and him.

And the source of this misunderstanding.

The root cause is all on Li Yuan's side.

To put it bluntly, Li Yuan was able to overthrow the former Sui Dynasty in one fell swoop and establish Li Tang Jiangshan.

The credit of the two people can be said to be the greatest.

Of these two people, one is Qin Wang Li Shimin.

The other person is Li Xiaogong, King of Hejian County.

Li Shimin, king of Qin, led all the soldiers, invincible all the way.

Almost laid down, the entire northern part of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the land in the south of the Yangtze River, Li Shimin has never set foot or set foot in it.

Because there, there is also a brave and messy Li Xiaogong.

During Li Xiaogong's stay in the south of the Yangtze River, he led the Tang army god Li Jing, and he was invincible along the way, playing triumphant songs.

The southern land of the entire Tang Dynasty is full of Li Xiaogong's illustrious military exploits.

As a result, Li Yuan sent Li Xiaogong back to Chang'an with an imperial decree.

Along the way, Li Xiaogong was still looking forward to the countless rewards waiting for him.

As a result, the script was completely different from Lee Hyo-gong's imagination.

Li Yuan personally issued an order to escort his nephew to prison.

The reason is very good, deliberate rebellion!

Ask yourself!

Li Yuan did have his own selfishness at work.

Once ascended to the throne and proclaimed emperor, the only thing to be worried about is the commander-in-chief with a heavy army in his hand.

What's more, Li Xiaogong is in the hearts of the people in the south, and everywhere he goes, there are praises everywhere.

It's impossible for Li Yuan not to be afraid.

Although in the end, Li Shimin pleaded with many civil and military officials, and after some investigation, Li Xiaogong did not show any signs of rebellion.

Li Yuan had no choice but to release Li Xiaogong from the prison.

However, Li Xiaogong, who had regained his freedom, no longer had the opportunity to govern Jiangnan.

With the title of Prince of Hejian on his head, he had no choice but to stay idle in the prince's mansion.

It was not until Li Shimin ascended the throne as the great treasure that Li Xiaogong was re-entrusted with important tasks.

Li Yuan and Li Xiaogong, uncles and nephews, are basically strangers.

"Grandpa, do you still have grudges about what happened back then?"

Li Gen naturally saw the unnatural look on Li Yuan's face.

"Brat, you know what happened to grandpa back then?"

Li Yuan has not used the title of brat for many years.

After being found out by the grandson, the truth of Li Yuan's old face is a bit unbearable.

"Grandpa, it's been so many years, besides, my family has nothing to worry about."

"You are the uncle of Prince Hejian, and it is only a matter of one sentence to clear up the misunderstanding."

"Grandpa is too embarrassed to speak, grandson will personally say sorry to uncle..."

Li Gen naturally knew that so many years had passed between Li Yuan and Li Xiaogong, if the two of them thought about it differently, it was actually not a big deal.

After all, there were no substantial serious consequences.

"Okay, grandpa listens to you."

"Grandpa is dying, so he still cares about losing face..."

"Back then, it was indeed Grandpa who was too suspicious and almost hurt your uncle by mistake."

When Li Gen heard this, a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Grandpa, once you and your uncle settle down, it will be of great benefit to both of you physically and mentally."

"Our old Li's family suffers from a chronic illness. Maintaining a happy body and mind is one of the basic requirements for overcoming the chronic illness."

Li Gen smiled and told white lies.

Letting the older generation no longer have grudges and knots in their hearts is indeed very beneficial to their body and mind.

What's more, Li Xiaogong had really helped him before.

Moreover, coming to Luntai City this time, it is not possible to return in three or two months.

Everyone looked down and saw each other, and occasionally dined at the same table.

Once there is a estrangement in my own family, once there is division.

To be honest, worse than strangers.

Just when Li Gen and Grandpa were talking happily.

Another flying pigeon, cooing, landed in the Dudu's mansion.

"Grandpa, this time my grandson decided that it's still good news."

"Grand grandson, tell me, who is the news about?"

Li Yuan was completely convinced, his eldest grandson.

Although Li Yuan is observing carefully every day, he is an extraordinary grandson.

However, Li Yuan still couldn't see through it.

"Grandpa, if there are no accidents, what the flying pigeon brought back must be news about Qingque."

"Oh, grandson, there are people from you in Wei Wang's mansion?"

Li Yuan's eyes widened, and he asked in a low voice.

"Grandpa, to be honest, there are not only people, but more than one or two people..."

"However, the grandson has no malicious intentions, nor does he have any intention of framing Qingque. Grandpa, do you believe this?"

After hearing Li Gen's words, Li Yuan slapped his thigh without hesitation.

"Believe it, how could Grandpa not believe it?"

Li Gen smiled, walked out of the room, and held Feige who was still in the yard, waiting for him to receive the letter.

After taking off the letter tied to the pigeon's leg, Li Gen sprinkled a handful of food on the pigeon, and then returned to the room.

"Grandpa, to prove whether the grandson's guess is correct."

"Grandpa, please read this letter first!"

Li Yuan was not polite either.

He took the letter from Li Gen and opened it carefully.

Li Yuan's eyes widened, it was exactly what the grandson said.

Sure enough, it was news about Wei Wang Li Tai.

But just a few words!

"Wei Wangtai, go back to the mansion and cry all night."

"I don't think about food and tea, and I can't sleep at night for three days. Frankly speaking, I will withdraw from the battle for the heirloom!"

Li Yuan handed the letter to Li Gen, staring at Li Gen with burning eyes and asked.

"Grand grandson, why did Qingque cry? And why did she say that she would withdraw from the fight for the heir apparent?"

After hearing what his grandfather Li Yuan said, Li Gen spoke after a little thought.

"Grandson wants to thank two people..."

"Oh, which two?"

Li Yuan had a questioning expression.

"Grandpa, the first thing I want to thank is Yuan Tiangang, the former Taishi Bureau Taishi Ling who has passed away for more than two years..."

Hearing this, Li Yuan thought carefully.

"Yuan Tiangang, grandpa seems to have a little impression."

"By the way, your father once took him to the manor..."

Li Gen nodded with a smile and said.

"Grandfather, that's him. His father said back then that this person was the steward of his mansion when he was in the land of Bashu. His surname was Yuan..."

"Actually, the boy realized something was wrong at that time. Yuan Tiangang's appearance is different from ordinary people, and he is the only one in the world."

Li Yuan took a deep breath and asked.

"Could it be that at that time, you discovered something wrong with your father?"

Li Gen shook his head and said.

"The grandson has never doubted his father, but he never thought that his father would be able to let Yuan Tiangang follow him willingly."

"It can be seen from this that my father is also a person with great luck, and my grandson was very pleased at that time..."

Li Yuan asked with some doubts.

"In this case, why should the grandson thank Yuan Tiangang?"

Hearing what his grandfather said, Li Gen picked up his teacup and took a sip.

After putting down the teacup, he spoke.

"Because Yuan Tiangang has unpredictable abilities..."

"After my father announced my life experience to the world, my grandson also learned from Brother Chu Mo that my father had ordered Yuan Tiangang to be a looker for Sun's mother, Brother Chu Mo."

"As a result, Yuan Tiangang really found out, saying that if the Sun family hadn't been shot by me, he would not be alive! It's a pity that, because of this, Yuan Tiangang coughed up blood..."

"Oh, so to speak, Yuan Tiangang did indeed have some skills, and it is a pity that he passed away so early."

Li Yuan said regretfully.

"Grandpa, Yuan Tiangang is indeed an extraordinary person. It is precisely because of this that grandson sent someone to contact him."

"It was only today that Qingque wept bitterly all night, saying that he would withdraw from the battle for the heir apparent..."

Li Yuan was completely confused.

He found that the more his grandson explained, the more confused he seemed.

Could it be that he is really old?

Become old and confused?

Suddenly, Li Yuan slapped his forehead fiercely, opened his mouth wide, and fixed his eyes on Li Gen.

"Grand grandson, could it be that Yuan Tiangang, who has the ability to predict gods and ghosts, has left behind any prophecies that cannot be fulfilled?"

"And that prophecy? Did the eldest grandson do it on purpose?"

"The reason why Yuan Tiangang passed away more than two years ago is that the prophecy came out just now, because a certain opportunity is needed..."

Li Gen nodded with a smile and said.

"Grandpa, you are so powerful, no wonder you can overthrow the former Sui Dynasty and establish Li Tang Jiangshan..."

Li Gen's praise somewhat made Li Yuan's face a little radiant.

Although it is said that the hero does not mention Nian Yong, but when he mentions it, he does have more face on his face.

"Grandpa, to be honest, all of this was indeed arranged by my grandson."

"After my grandson returned to Chang'an City, except for going to the imperial palace, he stayed in Prince Qin's mansion all the time. He didn't go outside the gate, but Wang Xuance and Xi Junmai didn't stay idle..."

"The two of them took their grandson's handwriting and found Yuan Tiangang in person."

"After Yuan Tiangang read the letter, he was stunned on the spot, because his grandson calculated the time of his death..."

"The grandson told him that some people are alive but he is dead, and some people are dead but he is still alive..."

"In the end, Yuan Tiangang still made the most correct choice. Because of this, it is indeed a matter of benefiting the country and the people, and it can also make Yuan Tiangang feel at ease..."
