Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 248
Li Chengqian didn't know how to comfort Xiao Yu, after all, he was kicked out of Chang'an at such an advanced age.

Even though Li Er's anger dissipated later, he regretted it!An imperial edict was issued to restore Xiao Yu's knighthood, and he was recruited back again, and he was also awarded Doctor Jin Zi Guang Lu.

Xiao Yu's relegation indirectly caused his sister Empress Xiao to suffer a heavy blow. She never got sick and died of illness in the 22nd year of Zhenguan. Three months later, Xiao Yu also died of illness in Yuhua Palace.

The two of them didn't speak, and remained silent for a long time. Xiao Yu got up and said goodbye: "The old minister disturbed His Highness! Your Majesty demoted the old minister to Shangzhou. The old minister still needs to go back and pack his luggage. So I bid farewell to the crown prince!"

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he staggered towards the outside, looking at the old figure, Li Chengqian couldn't help feeling compassionate.

"Cousin and grandfather wait a moment!" Li Chengqian shouted, got up and stepped forward to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu turned around, clasped his hands and asked, "I don't know what orders does His Royal Highness have?"

"It's a long way to go to Shangzhou, and you are very old. I am worried that you will be tired from traveling all the way, and your body will not be able to bear it."

"If cousin and grandfather trust Chengqian, you might as well ask Chengqian to go to the emperor's father to ask for mercy for you, so that you can stay in Chang'an." Li Chengqian said.

Xiao Yu was taken aback!
He never expected that at the last moment, when everyone was avoiding him, the prince would stand up for him.

Of course, it was also because of Xiao Yu's behavior that the ministers in the court isolated him, so when he was demoted from Chang'an by the emperor, no one was willing to stand up and say a few words for him.

This is really because Xiao Yu's popularity is too low, there are really not many people who can get along with him, but they have already left this world before him.

In addition, Xiao Yu is too old now, and everyone thinks that Xiao Yu has no possibility of making a comeback, so there is no need to say anything more.

As for Li Chengqian, it was entirely out of sympathy, Xiao Yu is already over 70 years old anyway!

At the end of his life, he was kicked out of the place where he had lived all his life.

Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't speak for a long time, Li Chengqian continued: "Even if you don't think about yourself! If you don't think about your wives, concubines and descendants, you should also think about your sister, Empress Xiao, who is over 80 years old now!"

"If you were demoted from Chang'an, how sad she would be, what a painful blow to her."

"Old minister...Old minister thanked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"As long as the veteran can stay in Chang'an, even if His Majesty deprives the veteran of everything, the veteran will have no complaints or regrets!" Xiao Yu choked up.

yes!If he left Chang'an, how sad his sister would be, at her current age, she might die!
In any case, let him accompany his sister on the last journey, and when she sees her off, let alone relegate him to Shangzhou, even if he is relegated to a farther place, he is willing.

Xiao Yu now pins all her hopes on Li Chengqian.

"Don't worry! I will do my best to deal with you! Although Chengqian dare not say that he will succeed! But he will definitely go all out!" Li Chengqian said.

"In the end, no matter what the result is! The veteran will be grateful to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Xiao Yu said.

"Cousin, grandpa, you go back first, I'm going to meet the emperor!" Li Chengqian said, and said to Wang Quan: "You send the old man back to the mansion!"

"No!" Wang Quan took the order and sent Xiao Yu back.

Li Chengqian left the East Palace and went to Da Nei to meet Li Er. First he went to Taiji Hall, and then he was told that Li Er had gone to Liangyi Hall.

As a result, after going to Liangyi Hall, he was told that Li Er was going to other places, and finally Li Chengqian found Li Er in Ganlu Hall.

In addition to Li Er, Li Zhi is also in the Ganlu Hall.

"Da Lang! Why are you here?" Li Er asked.

"Father! I heard that you demoted Song Guogong Xiao Yu to Shangzhou and removed his title. This is why I came here for this." Li Chengqian said.

Li Er frowned when he heard this, he was still angry about this, but his son ran up to him, picking up which pot he didn't open.

"Brother!" Li Zhi hurriedly winked at Li Chengqian, telling him to stop talking, but Li Chengqian pretended not to see it.

"Do you have any objections to my decision? Xiao Yu has repeatedly disobeyed the holy will, and I have tolerated it until now, but what about him?"

"But he didn't know how to restrain himself, and even made it worse! I have endured again and again, but Xiao Yu has no intention of repenting. I wanted to save him some face."

"I hope he can resign in person, who knows that he pretended not to know, so I demoted him to the governor of Shangzhou and removed all his titles."

"He, Xiao Yu, doesn't even care about his own face, so why should I care so much about it? Could it be that even you want to disobey me?" Li Er said angrily.

He was really angry, not only angry at Xiao Yu's lack of sense of propriety, who repeatedly disobeyed him, but also angry at Li Chengqian's ignorance.

"Of course I dare not disobey my father, I just feel sorry for Xiao Yu!" Li Chengqian said.

"It's a pity! What a pity for a person like him who disobeys the king!" Li Er said.

"Father! Father is more aware of Xiao Yu's character than my son. If nothing else, he has devoted himself to the Tang Dynasty. He has always governed impartially and has never formed a party for personal gain."

"Although he often disobeyed his father, he was utterly loyal. Now he is over 70 years old, and Shangzhou is far away from Chang'an."

"With his body in his dying years, I'm afraid he will die on the way. Didn't this minister come to ask Father to take back his life!"

"I just hope that my father can let Xiao Yu spend the rest of his life in Chang'an, and go through the rest of his life with his sister."

"The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the toughness knows the honest minister. Father, please remember these two sentences, and please fulfill them." Li Chengqian bowed to Li Er.

Li Chengqian knew that with just a few words, it was impossible for Li Er to let Xiao Yu go like this, so Li Chengqian started from Xiao Yu's contribution to the Tang Dynasty.

Among them, the kinship between Xiao Yu and the Li family was constantly emphasized. From contribution to playing the emotional card, Li Chengqian talked about it for nearly an hour.

Li Chengqian said so much, if Li Er didn't change his mind, he didn't move!
He, Li Chengqian, has tried his best, and that's all he can do. He has done his best to Xiao Yu!

Li Er turned around and picked up the tea bowl on the table, turned around and handed it to Li Chengqian, "You're thirsty! Drink!"

"My son thanked Father for the tea!" After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he stretched out his hands to take it and drank it down, only to feel his throat feel better.

"What you said is also unreasonable. Xiao Yu is indeed a relative of my Li family. He has dedicated most of his life to the Great Tang. It is really unreasonable to demote me from Chang'an just because I was angry for a while."

"Then Xiao Yu will only be exempted from the title and fiefdom! Allow Xiao Yu to stay in Chang'an City." Li Er said.
