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

"Yuwen Qing won't bother with this. He's even happy when I scold him." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said casually upon hearing this. Then he began to chatter on to himself: "Old Heavenly Master, how often do you think I should send a letter to Chang'an this time when I go north? Sister Lian'er... Sister Wanwan... Sister Jiaojiao... Sister Yue'er... Sister Xiaowu... Oh, right - and that tiger girl Wei Shuyi..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu felt for the first time that this "sweet burden" was so heavy: "Even when I was studying at the academy... I couldn't write so many words in a month... Besides, I have to write to my mother, Changle, Lanling, Master Yu, Master Xiao, Sister Runan, Sister Xiangcheng... and Xiao Sizi and the others - for the letter to Xiao Sizi, I have to draw so that she can understand the content of the letter... It takes a lot of effort..."

"...Your Highness...you have indeed thought it through..." The old Taoist priest had never seen such a scene before, but he was very curious: "Won't Your Highness write a letter to his brothers?"

"Alas! Being brothers is all about the heart." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu patted his chest and said, "Of course he would disappear if something happened. - Although my eldest brother has made a contribution this time, I am the one who has to clean up the mess. And my younger brothers are more useless than the other... Forget it... Let them reflect on themselves."

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu is afraid that writing a letter to them will arouse the suspicion of His Majesty..." The old Taoist priest now really wants to turn around and go to the Taiji Hall to teach a certain tyrant a lesson: Why are you so suspicious by nature - Your Highness the Prince of Chu is such a good child...

As a result, he now had to start considering these things that he had never considered before...

“Old Taoist priest, do you think I did this because I’m afraid that the emperor will become suspicious?” Although His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu did not have the magical powers of the old Taoist priest, the old Taoist priest’s face was already filled with the seven words “I really want to go back and beat the emperor”. No matter how stupid His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was, he could guess the other party’s inner thoughts: “Actually… I’m just lazy… I don’t like writing letters… But there’s nothing I can do. There are people I care about in Chang’an City, and there are even more people who miss me, so…”

"The two young princes, Li You and Li Yin, have just played a trick on their father - Your Highness, they actually miss you a lot." The old Taoist found that it was not only Li Er who was being stubborn, but His Highness the Prince of Chu was also quite stubborn.

Of course, the former's stubbornness is simply disliked by others, but the latter's stubbornness is actually appreciated by others.

Because the starting point is different.

"My two brothers..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu thought of what happened in the Imperial Garden before, smiled helplessly, and then he sighed softly: "Alas... Who said that fishermen only know how to fish? Except for not being able to catch fish, they can do everything else..."

“Your Highness, this is a really good scolding…” Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest had to remind the other party: “The cause and effect is quite serious…”

"What do you mean a little big?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu frowned when he heard this: "I'm afraid of strong winds and waves? Old Heavenly Master, you are beginning to look down on me again..."

“Your Highness, Prince Chu, you should find someone to clean your ears later…” The old Taoist priest had almost forgotten that this child was the one that deserved our love: because he really couldn’t tell… couldn’t tell…

“Old Heavenly Master, what’s that expression on your face…” His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw that the old Heavenly Master seemed to be a little sad. He thought for a moment and said, “Old Heavenly Master, in fact, no matter what, the sun will still rise from the east and set in the west tomorrow, and everyone in this world will still live their own lives. This truth was taught to me by my grandmother a long time ago. She said: The sun rises in the east and the moon sets in the west, people gather and separate, and the most important thing for people is to live a good life in the present day. I really didn’t understand what my grandmother said at the time, and later I was very curious why my grandmother said such a difficult thing to me at the time.

But today, I understand..." When His Royal Highness the King of Chu said this, he suddenly felt an inexplicable grief in his heart: "Because grandma knows that when I can fully understand the meaning of these words, I will have grown up to the age where I can bear that grief... Old Heavenly Master, this is probably what is called growth..."

But grandma, Kuan'er doesn't want to grow up.

If I had a choice, I would just stay in Longyou and be a little fool who knows nothing.

When the sun rose, I went out to play, facing the colorful clouds in the sky, eating hot steamed buns.

At lunch time, I ran home with a smile on my face, covered in reed and mud, and let my grandmother wipe my face clean, and then we had our meal together.

During the meal, I would hold up the chicken leg and describe my adventures to my grandmother, and she would never tire of putting some of my favorite dishes in my bowl...

So what’s good about growing up?

"Your Highness, the King of Chu, you have to look forward." The old Taoist priest didn't know how to comfort the sad King of Chu.

"I know this truth," His Royal Highness the King of Chu nodded after hearing this. After a long while, he slowly said, "So I am very disappointed in myself..."

"Your Highness, Prince Chu, you have never let anyone down." The old Taoist priest's desire to beat up His Majesty Li Er has reached its peak: "So you shouldn't have such an idea."

"Yes," His Royal Highness the King of Chu nodded after hearing this, and then forced a smile and said, "I will listen to whatever the old Heavenly Master says."

“In that case—” the old Taoist priest began to find the right time.

"Goguryeo must be fought." His Royal Highness the King of Chu immediately began to predict: "If I don't go to Goguryeo to cause a fight, the thoughts in my heart will not be able to be realized."

"..." Well, as a Taoist master, the old Taoist priest certainly knows how important it is to have a clear mind: "You little bastard... you only know how to find nice words to appease me..."

"Alas... Old Heavenly Master... Don't say that..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu waved his hands after hearing this: "I will be proud..."

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu is a natural talent, so it's only natural for him to be a little proud." - Not only His Highness the Prince of Chu could predict this, but the old Heavenly Master could as well. No, he was originally able to do it: "So, Your Highness the Prince of Chu, don't be disappointed in yourself anymore. You should be the most high-spirited young man in the world. How can you become depressed because of a small setback?"

"Old Taoist priest..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu felt that this old man was not someone who could comfort people: "What we said today were all from the bottom of our hearts, so you tell me yourself, is it 'a little' of a blow..."

“……”This time, the old Taoist priest was trapped.

After a long time.

The old Taoist priest suddenly turned around and walked towards the Tai Chi Hall.

“No, old Taoist priest, what are you doing?” When His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw the old Taoist priest running away, he thought that he had made the old Taoist priest angry: “Look at you… why are you so anxious and angry when I say something… Alas… No… Even if you want to leave, you have to have a correct direction… Suzaku Gate is over there…”

"Your Highness, please wait!" The old Taoist priest felt that "clear thoughts" was really important, so some things had to be done: "That tyrant king will have to endure another scolding from me today!" - If he got emotional, it wouldn't be impossible for him to give the other party a couple of chestnuts.

Anyway, this is what that guy owes me, and it's just a small amount of interest!
