Chapter 1530 Parents’ Love Problems
"Duke Tang, you are six years older than me. You are already twenty-six years old this year!" Yuwen Chan suddenly asked Li Yuan.

"Your Majesty, it is true!" Li Yuan said to Yuwen Chan while sitting. Apart from various public court meetings, Li Yuan had a grace that no one else had, which was that he could meet the emperor without kneeling.

In other words, unless it was the most important occasion, Li Yuan never needed to kneel down to Yuwen Chan. He even had a stool to sit on every time they met, and sometimes he could even lie directly on Yuwen Chan's bed.

Such special treatment made countless people envious. After all, other cabinet secretaries had to kneel down and salute when they met Yuwen Chan before they would be considered for a seat. This treatment was truly unique to Li Yuan, not to mention that he was qualified to lie on Yuwen Chan's bed.

In addition, the age difference between the two was actually not that big, so there have always been some very bad rumors circulating in the market, such as because Li Yuan was very handsome, Yuwen Chan had some unspeakable thoughts about Li Yuan.

Even Li Yuan himself had such concerns, wondering whether he should prepare some lard cream to keep on his body in case of emergency. Fortunately, Yuwen Chan always treated him with respect and kindness as a friend. Lying in bed was just because Li Yuan worked too late. Yuwen Chan was worried that he would be in danger when he returned home at night. He was also very tired, so he deliberately let him sleep in another palace. The two of them never really slept together.

In the end, Li Yuan could only sigh that it was because of his good character that he was so loved by the Emperor.

Well, no matter how cruel Li Shimin was, he was not cruel enough to make his own father kneel down to him.

"By the way, I heard that Duke Tang's eldest son has been born. What is his name?" Yuwen Chan asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, my son's name is Li Jiancheng," Li Yuan said hurriedly.

"Oh... is it still this name..." Yuwen Chan muttered, and Li Yuan didn't understand again... What does it mean to be still this name? Isn't this the name he just thought of yesterday?
"Do you have a nickname?" Yuwen Chan asked again.

"Not yet..." Li Yuan said.

"Then let's call her Dafeng!" Yuwen Chan said without hesitation.

"Ah!" Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I gave birth to a son, not a daughter."

"Da Feng is a boy's name!" Yuwen Chan said coldly, "Does Duke Tang think it's not good? Otherwise, why don't you choose one yourself?"

"I dare not... Dafeng is a very good name. When my son grows up, if he knows that his nickname was chosen by Your Majesty personally, he will be so grateful and happy!" What else could Li Yuan say in the face of the name forced upon him by Yuwen Chan?

I could only accept it with a smile.

Forget it, let’s just leave it like this for the eldest son. When the second child is born, I must give him a nickname first, otherwise the nickname Erfeng will be even uglier!
Seeing Li Yuan's miserable look, Yuwen Chan finally felt relieved. You know, ever since the rubbish author gave him the nickname Erfeng in the novel, the name Erfeng has become an indelible shadow over his head. Not only do people in the author's world call him that, but even his own ministers call him that in private. Li Shimin was so wronged that he almost cried to death.

Such a good day as this should also be given to my dear elder brother to experience it.

"The eldest son of the Duke of Tang arrived a little late. If he had listened to me earlier, Li Jiancheng would probably have been a bystander!" said Yuwen Chan happily in a good mood. Here he was going to talk about something that made Yuwen Chan extremely upset.

Li Yuan's wife was Empress Taimu, Li Shimin's biological mother.

Dou's mother, Li Shimin's grandmother, was the daughter of Yuwen Tai, the younger sister of Yuwen Yong, and the great-aunt of Yuwen Chan.

If you count it this way, Dou is Yuwen Chan's cousin, and the two are now real relatives.

As early as when Dou was seven or eight years old, she had been engaged to Li Yuan. Yuwen Chan had no intention of interfering with this and just let it develop naturally in history. But he never expected that with the flapping of his butterfly wings, Li Yuan would not want to marry Dou, and Dou would not want to marry Li Yuan either. The two sides even reached the point of directly breaking off the engagement.

When Yuwen Chan received the news, he was almost scared to death and his whole body was almost numb.

In his heart, Li Shimin, Yuwen Chan, could never accept that his mother married another man... It's not that he would not be born, but once he thought of his mother leaning on another man, Li Shimin would have an urge to kill the entire family.

So Yuwen Chan issued an edict in the name of the emperor, not allowing Dou and Li Yuan to cancel their engagement, and this barely saved the engagement.

Later, after investigation, Yuwen Chan found out that the reason why Li Yuan did not want to marry Dou was because he was concerned that Dou was Yuwen Chan's cousin. Wouldn't that make him the emperor's cousin?

Although this sounds good, there is no guarantee that Yuwen Chan will not have objections. In addition, Li Yuan attaches great importance to his position as cabinet secretary, so he simply wants to cancel the engagement.

The reason why Dou didn't want to marry Li Yuan was because she had fallen in love with Li Jing... Dou's mother was the biological daughter of the Yuwen family, so when Yuwen Chan's restoration began, the entire Dou family became one of the few families that mobilized all its strength to help Yuwen Chan before he broke into the palace.

Because they knew that if they failed in this battle they would become benevolent, but if they lost the whole family would be executed, so the entire Dou family simply joined in the battle. Even Dou came with a small bow and arrow to fight. However, she was driven back by Li Jing. Unexpectedly, meeting Li Jing would ruin her life. From then on, Dou fell in love with Li Jing and would not marry anyone else.

After this situation broke out, Li Jing was so scared that he stayed on the border for three or four years and didn't dare to come back, while Yuwen Chan was in a difficult situation and was exhausted from all the trouble.

However, upon learning that his fiancée had fallen in love with another man, Li Jing, the emperor's most favored man and also known as a military god, Li Yuan thought over and over again and felt that he could not offend Li Jing, so he became more determined to cancel the engagement.

There was no other way. Yuwen Chan could only try to force the two to get married with an imperial decree, but both of them refused. It was impossible for Yuwen Chan to really force his parents to get married. Finally, at the suggestion of Zhangsun Wuji, he let Li Jing get married early to put an end to Dou's thoughts.

He also ordered that Dou had to marry Li Yuan, otherwise she would remain single for the rest of her life.

Fortunately, this is not a melodramatic love novel. After holding on for five or six years, Dou, who had gradually grown up and become realistic, finally gave up her unrealistic ideas and married Li Yuan in the 10th year of Zhenguan. Ultimately, Li Jiancheng was born 6 years later than in history... It is not known whether this Li Jiancheng is still the same Li Jiancheng in history.

"Your Majesty, you know that I have liked her for a long time, but she doesn't like me. It's not that I intentionally delayed!" Li Yuan explained helplessly.

"Well, you have a wife and a son now, maybe you will have three sons in the future!" Yuwen Chan touched his nose and said with a smile, "Although your life is relatively complete, it is still missing one thing. Do you know what it is?"

"Ah..." Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Your Majesty, I have no worries about food and clothing, and my wife and I are all well-off. I really have no other requests. I don't lack anything."

"No, you are still missing something!" Yuwen Chan patted Li Yuan on the shoulder and said, "I think you are still missing the Tang Kingdom. In addition, your title of Duke of Tang is not enough. I should make you the King of Tang!"

"Your Majesty, I am guilty of death!" Li Yuan was completely frightened. He knelt down and tried desperately to kowtow.

As a result, before his knees touched the ground, Li Yuan felt himself lifted up by an invisible force, and then he flew into the air. He looked at Yuwen Chan in horror, who seemed to be pinching him in the air, and said, "King Tang, this world is too big for a single Great Zhou to manage. I have decided to give you a piece of land as big as Guanzhong in America to be your Tang Kingdom."

"Tomorrow, your entire Li family, including all the farmers, a total of 41785 people, will board the flying shuttle to the fiefdom I grant you. Except for the military power, all other rights in the fiefdom belong to you, Li Yuan. You are the real King of Tang of the Great Zhou!" Yuwen Chan finally said in a resounding voice.
