Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

After saying goodbye to Li Yuan, the father and son began to walk in the direction of Ganlu Hall.

On the royal road, when the palace people saw them from a distance, they knelt on the ground and saluted respectfully.

"Kuan'er, do you think your imperial grandfather will never forgive you until his death?" His Majesty Li Er held the jade seal in his hand, but he was not very happy in his heart.

"Father, be satisfied." Li Kuan curled his lips when he heard this: "Anyway, I won't lie about this matter just to make you happy. Can the emperor forgive you? And you asked this in the fifth year of Zhenguan, how much Are you deceiving yourself a bit?"

"..." His Majesty Li Er felt that his temples began to swell again when he heard his son's heart-wrenching words. He turned to look at his son who looked unconcerned and said in a bad tone: "You The boy can see it with ease, huh?"

"I said, Dad, don't worry about all this. Let me tell you, you should pay more visits to the emperor's grandfather in the future if you have nothing to do, and ask him about his diet and daily life, and give him snacks. Yes, just leave these matters to the palace officials. , but if you personally ask about it, the meaning will be different." Li Kuan actually didn't expect that the imperial grandfather would give the imperial seal to his father so quickly. Maybe the old man was really frustrated, or maybe it was He had to do it for the sake of his filial grandson, but in any case, the emperor's grandfather's move was of great significance - a certain general Tiance who ascended to the throne through the "Xuanwu Gate Succession Ceremony" is now also It's really justified.

"Alas..." Listening to his son's words, His Majesty Li Er didn't know whether to be happy or sad: "You do know how to be filial to your elders..."

"What, did I say something wrong?" Li Kuan shook his head helplessly, and then said in a helpless tone: "Dad, you have to understand that the person who lives the most unhappy life now is the emperor's grandfather. I was originally I thought about dedicating the national jade seal to him to make him happy. After all, when I went on the expedition, he gave me the private seal of his family and said such heartfelt words to me. As my grandson, naturally, Want to repay.”

His Majesty Li Er looked a little hesitant as he listened to his son's words. Then, he slowly said: "So... what is your intention?"

"Hey..." Li Kuan glanced disdainfully at his foolish father who was deliberately testing him, and deliberately said truthfully: "What bad intentions can I have? I'm just waiting for the emperor's grandfather to pass the national jade seal to me, and then I will tell the world what ‘destined destiny’ is, and that’s all!”

"You little bastard..." His Majesty Li Er was infuriated by his son's efforts to pinch him: "Okay, okay, is it because I am ignorant and ruined His Royal Highness the King of Chu's plan?"

"Alas, the matter has come to this, what else can I do?" After His Highness King Chu said this, he deliberately made a sad expression: "If this plan fails, it is destiny..."

Oh oh oh oh, now the heavenly water unicorn is really on him...

"You..." His Majesty Li Er looked at his son who was deliberately making him laugh, and said with a somewhat sad expression: "Dad was indeed forced into a desperate situation at the beginning. Even a confidant like Yu Chigong made it clear that if I didn't do it again, I would fight back. To stop this, he will return to the mountains and forests... Ha... Is that a retreat... Tell me clearly! Once the situation is over, even he, Yuchi Gong, will have to fight for the lives of his family and his own future. Leave me alone..."

"Dad, then I'm going to set up Yuchi Gong's sack?" Li Kuan suddenly couldn't bear it when he heard his father's sad and uninterested tone. He was also a son after all, so how about he take the initiative to help his father and his son? "The best in the world" uses physical means to eliminate this gap?

Well, this can be regarded as my filial piety...

"Ha... Yuchi Gong is not the eldest grandson Anye, do you think you can do it?" His Majesty Li Er felt warm in his heart when he saw his son's serious expression, but he was immediately ready to pour cold water on him.

"Hey..." Li Kuan raised his chin after hearing this: "Dad, let me tell you, if you asked me to rebel, I might have to hesitate for fear of missing out, but if you asked me to put someone in the sack, hey... I am this !" Li Kuan said, giving his father a thumbs up, patting his chest casually and saying: "My son, with his pure heart, is always ready to go through fire and water for his father!"

"Okay, okay..." His Majesty Li Er was no longer able to complain about his son: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu's innocent heart really opened my eyes!"

"Ha~~" Li Kuan laughed after hearing this, and then the father and son stopped talking and continued to move forward. ,

When they were about to arrive at the Manlu Hall, His Majesty Li Er suddenly stopped.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you injured internally by my imperial grandfather?" His Royal Highness King Chu, who had already begun to think about what to eat for dinner, heard there was no movement behind him, so he turned to look.

But immediately, his face showed surprise, and then shock.

Because His Majesty Li Er lowered his hands slightly at this moment, he looked at the imperial seal in his hand with a painful expression: "Kuan'er, was my father really wrong back then... so much so that my father refused to forgive me until his death, and everyone in the world also Consider my desperate fight back then as an act of rebellion..."

His Royal Highness the King of Chu has never seen His Majesty Li Er like this. He knows that the more powerful a person is, the more fragile his weakness will be.

Just like himself, Li Kuan still dares not recall how he accompanied his grandmother's coffin all the way to Chang'an.

"Dad..." Li Kuan put down his arm behind his head and came to His Majesty Li Er. He stretched out his hand and held his hand. Feeling the roughness of his father's palm, which was the mark left by years of fighting, Li Kuan suddenly He raised his head and smiled at his father: "Since my grandmother passed away, I have understood that the most useless emotion in the world is regret. I am not advising you to let go of the past completely. I just think there is no need for you to force yourself to be like this.

To be fair, if I were in your position now, I would do the same thing, and I would do it more decisively than you. At least, I would never do anything like asking for divination before doing this. I won’t give Zhang Gongjin a chance to scold me. "

When His Royal Highness the King of Chu said this, the tears that had gathered in the corners of His Majesty Li Er's eyes suddenly dispersed: "You brat, you still want to learn from me?!"

"I'm talking about objective conditions! You fool, you still want to fish and enforce the law?!" Li Kuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then shook his father's hand away. After receiving the request from His Highness the King of Chu, he responded with indignation on the spot: "My eldest brother Follow me, it’s not like my uncle and you were in a good relationship back then! As for the other brothers, hey, as the second brother, I have more prestige in front of them than the eldest brother!"

"That's not true..." His Majesty Li Er's sadness was instantly driven away by the rebellious son in front of him. He thought for a while, and then said: "If one day in the future, you are feared and excluded by Cheng Qian..."

"Brother, he still dares to exclude me? He wants to rebel?!" King Chu Dai always only listens to what he thinks is the important point when he listens to others: "Then I'll do a left kick, then a right kick, and that's it. Five lightning kicks in a row. Add another 'Ah Kuan's Eighteen Styles' to complete the whole exercise, and guarantee that the whole life will not be discounted! - I won't let my eldest brother re-understand the word 'brothers, friends and brothers,' then my Li Kuan's 'Li' will be It's so polite!"

"..." His Majesty Li Er feels that his worries are not unreasonable, but they are indeed unnecessary - this kid Kuan'er... who can say that he is not a talent?

"Okay... you didn't say anything as a father..." His Majesty Li Er shook his head helplessly. He may be really old and doesn't understand young people... No, it's the world that's wrong, and he, Li Er, is wrong. Second, after all, His Royal Highness the King of Chu... when would he feel sad over such a trivial matter...

"Alas... my family..." His Majesty Li Er's emotion was only half of what he said.

"Unfortunately!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu shouted and snatched away the second half of the sentence.

"Wait until I recover from my injuries!" His Majesty Li Er felt that it was time to show his true fatherly love.

"Hmph! Dad, my body is still growing. My injury will definitely heal faster than yours!" King Chu Dai knew how to control temperature.

"Okay, okay..." His Majesty Li Er nodded. For the sake of the national jade seal in his hand, he would not take action today.

"Dad..." Just as the father and son were walking towards the Manna Hall again and were about to arrive at the square in front of the hall, His Royal Highness King Chu glanced at his younger brothers and sisters who were looking forward to him and his father outside the hall, as well as the ones who had just been waiting for him. After stepping out of the palace door and bending down to fix the hairpin on Lan Ling's hair, Empress Changsun suddenly whispered: "Actually, dad, you don't have to be grudges all the time. Your Highness, King Qin, who has nine years of martial virtue, stood outside the Xuanwu Gate. In the heavy fog, he didn't know where to go. In short, he was lucky to be where he was today, so why should he criticize his past self anymore?"

His Majesty Li Er stopped again. He was so flattered that he thought for a moment that he had just heard a hallucination. Such thoughtful words were really spoken to him by Kuan'er's rebellious son himself: "Kuan'er, what did you... just say?"

"Forget it if you didn't hear me!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who has an unruly nature and loves freedom, is too lazy to play with his foolish father about fatherly kindness and sonship. After saying these words, he gave His Majesty Li Er a handsome look from behind, and saw him He happily ran towards his mother and younger brothers and sisters: "Queen mother! You don't know, my father... has suffered a lot today! Hahahaha..."

"..." His Majesty Li Er saw that his son had begun to reveal his past. He should have been furious, but for some reason, a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "What a fool..."
