Ah Nian didn't expect her to refuse, so she was stunned and asked, "Why? That's what I built to give it to you." You said in the past that you like Shuzhong, that Shuzhong is a blessed land, and it is rich in resources and has a pleasant climate. I chose Shuzhong to build this mansion for you, and appointed your henchmen to manage it, and named it Jiangfu. I-"

When he said this, he was suddenly silent, remembering that he never seemed to be so eager to dissect people, although he was facing the woman he thought about day and night, he still felt unaccustomed to it.

When Jiang Chengzi heard it in his ears, he only felt inexplicably moved, as if he had drunk a cup of mellow honey.

"I know. It's just that it's not easy to be too ostentatious at the moment. Also, I want to spend some time with my family. Moreover, I want to personally direct the affairs of Chuanyunzhai. After all, the salt making process is not simple, if you can get high-purity salt, and can increase salt production, this is a matter for the benefit of the people. Jiang Chengzi patiently explained, she knew that this man was a little fried.

Ah Nian knew that the decisions she made always had their own reasons, but he just wanted her to be a little weaker and let him protect her.

"You don't have to be involved in making salt. "Ah Nian is indeed a little angry.

"If you can't do this, you will have to come. Jiang Chengzi insisted. Of course, she thought about how to be low-key, but no matter how low-key she was, she couldn't hide it from Li Shimin and the eldest grandson as an old fox. As soon as the potatoes, sweet potatoes and salt are made, she will immediately become the target of Li Shimin's investigation. Moreover, Li Shimin must summon him.

In this time and space, it is impossible for the wind and grass to escape the eyes of the rulers, let alone the grass. She also chose to stand side by side with this amazing man in front of her, how could she not see his father.

"You can teach others and let them take responsibility. Like me. Ah Nian said directly. This. He grabbed the human teeth, rescued Li Tai, and entered the Longyou Road from the lofty mountains and mountains of northern Shu, outflanked the Qiang people from behind, and caught the Qiang people off guard. Although it did not completely annihilate the Qiang people, it also greatly damaged the vitality of the rampant Qiang people.

Because of these exploits, he was before Li Tai asked to be crowned the king of Shu. I hope that my father can change the title of King Han back to the original King of Shu again, and this time he will not be like in his previous life, nor will he be like the last time.

"Father. This time, I went to Yizhou and found many things, which were quite beneficial to my Datang. If the father agrees to the son's visit. The son, of course, was also the father's biggest surprise. He talked with him in his father's study. His father asked him what he wanted. But he only needs to be named the king of Shu and go to Yizhou to serve as the governor.

At that time, he remembered his father's eyes, looked at him very seriously with the acumen of an emperor, and asked, "What do you want?"

He was shocked, because his father's eyes were like knives, and the words he asked were not not vicious. He knew that his father could stand out and settle the world, and he won the throne in the battle with his uncle and uncle. There must be a keen insight.

"I just want to share my father's worries and seek happiness for the people of Datang. He replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The father paced back and forth in the room. Although it is a daily casual dress, the pattern of auspicious clouds and dragons still has a different scenery. For a moment, he even thought: If he was here at this moment, would he be able to defend her?

"Do you know why the Western Zhou Dynasty collapsed?" asked my father after pacing for a long time.

"When the etiquette system collapses, the world naturally collapses. He replied officially.

"You know what I mean, don't try to play tricks with me. Father pointed out unceremoniously, his expression cold as frost.

From his previous life, he couldn't see what kind of feelings his father had for him and his mother. If he says he doesn't love, he is also strict with him, teaching the art of war and many emperors' ways, if he says he loves, he has always been defensive and constrained by himself, and every sentence is with vigilance and beating to let him rest his heart, and don't think about it.

As for his mother, the two of them can never see each other all year round, except for seeing each other from afar on ceremonial days, even if his mother is seriously ill, he will not come to take a look.

If he doesn't love him, he can give up the city for his mother when she is in danger.

"Is my father referring to the feudal system of the princes?" he still asked without humility or arrogance, with a look of pampering and not being surprised.

The father didn't answer, just glanced at him, and asked, "At this moment, the spiritual platform is clear?"

He only said, "Father forgive, son is reckless." ”

"Are you blunt? Since you know that the division of the princes has led to the collapse of the Zhou Dynasty's ritual system, and the princely system is not advisable, you should know the intention of the royal family's children to lead the fiefdom. Father said coldly.

"The governor of Yizhou, it's just an empty title, and the son really doesn't think it can be compared with the princes of the Western Zhou Dynasty. He retorted. In the past, he rarely contradicted his father, who said one, but he never said two. But since he left Jiangfu, he missed Ah Zi more and more, and he couldn't wait to stay by her side all the time, especially knowing that Zhang Jia might also carry the memories of his previous life, he was even more restless. Thus, for the first time, he contradicted his father.

When my father heard this, he couldn't help but glance at him and asked, "Once upon a time, you weren't like this. What is it about this Yizhou that attracts you? It makes you dare to do things that you never dared to do. ”

"Yizhou is fertile for thousands of miles, and my son wants to go and see it and experience it for himself. He replied.

His father didn't talk much, and the waiter outside had already come to King Wei to ask for a meeting. The father frowned slightly and said, "He just came back safely from Shuzhong, and it is said that the injury is not healed." How did you get out?"

"The king of Wei said that he missed everyone (the name of the emperor in the Tang Dynasty) and thought about it tightly. The chamberlain smiled, couldn't help but glance at Li Ke, and said, "It turns out that King Han is also here." ”

"And let him wait. With a wave of his hand, the father let the chamberlain out.

In the imperial study, there are two father and son left. His emperor's father sat on the dragon chair and warned very seriously: "Ke'er, you are smart and brave, and at a young age, you know how to help me relieve the siege of Taiyuan." I can also wear a mask, and in the name of Ah Nian, send me information about the Xuanwu Gate, and even fight on the front line. You respect and love me as a father. But, Ke'er, the more amazing you are, the more unsettling it is. ”

"Everyone. This time he did not address his father, but directly addressed the emperor.

The father was stunned. Understand that his next words are a conversation between a courtier and an emperor, not between father and son.

"Say it. Father waved his hand.

"Once upon a time. You are the king of Qin, and I am your third son. We are a family, and helping you is helping myself. That is not only the filial piety of the son to the father, but also the self-preservation of a child to himself. You are a towering tree for me and my mother, sheltering us from the wind and rain, and my mother and I are doing our best. Mother, she-" he paused at this point.

His father stood up abruptly, frowning. Somewhat excitedly asked, "You mean, everything you do, is." Your mother taught you?"

He lowered his eyes and did not answer, which counted as acquiescence. In fact, his mother recited sutras in addition to the Buddha. Nothing was taught to him. to his father. The son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, his mother is only faint and rarely talks about it. The mother has always been alienated and indifferent to the father.

His father looked at him, thinking that everything he did was taught by his mother, and his expression was a little excited. Then, he sat down on the dragon chair and took a deep breath. Then he returned to the son of cold love.

"Was it really your mother?," he said aggressively.

"The son followed his mother since he was a child, before coming to Chang'an. There is almost no teaching or teaching, as everyone should know. I have always lived with my mother. He said slowly. I also felt panicked in my heart, he was guilty of bullying the king.

When his father heard this, he finally sighed and said, "She still has me in her heart." ”

Ah Nian didn't speak, but he said to himself: "That's it, I'm busy with political affairs, and I don't have time to see what she thinks." You usually accompany your mother a lot, and I, as a father, don't want you to go to Yizhou, so I also take this into account. ”

"Everyone, my son has never begged you for anything, this time, my son begged you. He poofed and fell to the ground.

For a long time, the imperial study was very quiet.

The third prince Ah Nian was prostrate on the ground, and Li Shimin was sitting on the dragon chair, and the two were like sculptures. I don't know how long it took, Ah Nian's knees were painful, and Li Shimin asked slowly: "You tell the truth, why do you want to go to Shuzhong, you say, I will allow you." ”

Ah Nian didn't know whether to say it or not, he was only silent, and even hated why this high king kept criticizing him all the time. In his previous life, before he died, he had to tell the eldest grandson Wuji in a secret edict that if the third prince Li Ke had any changes, he would be killed. When he was dying, he saw the edict and didn't know what to say.

"Everyone, the reason why I went to Shuzhong, first, Shuzhong is rich in products, I want to explore salt, after all, there are many salt wells over there, before, I fought with the Qiang people in Longyou Road, and found that our soldiers can't even afford to eat salt. This salt is the source of human strength, and in the long run, we will not need the enemy to attack, and we will be able to defeat ourselves. He said slowly. This is indeed the current situation he saw in Longyou Road this time, the meals eaten by the soldiers in the barracks are almost salty, and many soldiers have no energy. As the prince who likes to gallop the field and kill the enemy heroically, he is particularly distressed.

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes lit up, but he still said: "This is a secondary reason, let's talk about the main reason." ”

Ah Nian only felt that he was forced into a corner by his father, and he had to say. He took a deep breath and said, "Everyone, I fell in love with a woman, she was in Shuzhong. ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin didn't say a word, only looked at him in a daze.

"Everyone?" he shouted.

Li Shimin came back to his senses, put on a straight face, and said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, you have a marriage contract, and the Hongnong Yang family is also a thousand-year-old family, and the most important etiquette." Moreover, even if the children of the Yang family are withering now, and they are rarely officials in the court, the power of the Yang family cannot be underestimated. ”

"My son knows. He saluted, and Shi Shiran stood up.

"Now that you know, why did you refrain from getting hired and engaged? Now you want to go to Shuzhong for a woman?" Li Shimin suddenly felt that his son was a little nonsense. He's such a good kid, calm and self-controlled, and very much like him. Low-key, intelligent, and able to calculate everything properly. Why did he become interested in women all of a sudden?

"Hello everyone, exactly. Ah Nian was determined to go all the way to the dark, so he agreed categorically.

"You have a marriage contract. Don't blame me for not reminding you, the prince will get married in a few days, and then you and the fourth child, and you still go to Yizhou for a woman? Li Shimin brushed his wide sleeves and shouted.

Ah Nian knelt down again, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, and said word by word: "The son begs his father to fulfill it." ”

"For a woman, you completely ignore that you are a prince and a general. Li Shimin's tone was a little disappointed.

Ah Nian still said in a calm tone: "She is a woman, but there is only one her in the world, she is the person her son wants in his heart." ”

"You are a big husband, how can you be a woman, regardless of physique, regardless of royal face?" Li Shimin shouted loudly.

"For saints and people like my father, your dream is that the world will be peaceful. And for my ambitious son, my dream is to live with her for the rest of my life. "He had already been presumptuous in front of his father once today, and he didn't mind having a second time. He really let it go.

"You—" Li Shimin raised his hand but did not fall. To be honest, even he didn't know why he was angry. If you have to find the reason, I'm afraid it's because among so many sons, the person who is most like himself is Li Ke, and the most heroic and strategic child is only him.

He even sometimes, intentionally or unintentionally, talked to him about some theories of governing the country, wanting him to be the crown prince.

Maybe he was expecting too much, when he heard that this child was actually a woman, and he wanted to run to Yizhou in person, regardless of other people's gossip, so he took such a risk.

"Does my father want me to be in the world, or do nothing? Ah Nian asked his father rhetorically, and a pair of eyes raised and looked directly at his father.

When Li Shimin heard this, he was stunned for a moment. This child's question made him feel distressed. This child is too good to be his ideal heir, but he is a concubine.

A concubine is too good, and this is a curse. This child also understands this truth.

"That's it. Li Shimin finally made a concession, his tone softened, waved his hand, and said, "I will agree to your request." Then crown you as the king of Shu, the governor of Yizhou, and take office in Yizhou. ”

"Thank you, son. He bowed, and a big stone in his heart finally fell, although in this way, his father would definitely investigate Ah Zi. But Ah Zi is so amazing, even if his father knows about it, he will definitely understand his actions.

Li Shimin looked at him and suddenly felt that he seemed to be too harsh on him all these years. He didn't seem to have spoken so much to him. He looked out the window, and the daylight was just right, so he motioned for the child to sit down, and talked about the woman who had made her child dream.

Ah Nian had been prepared for a long time, and told Li Shimin about the fairy in his dream, and said that he had been looking for the reincarnation of the fairy all these years. He invited Li Shimin to drink tea again, and he knew that his father would know about Ah Zi's existence sooner or later. Instead of asking others to introduce Ah Zi to him, it is better to introduce it yourself.

Li Shimin didn't believe it originally, but he drank the tea made by Ah Nian, sighed again and again, and believed it a little.

Later, the father and son had a good conversation, and promised that after he participated in the prince's wedding, he would go to Yizhou to take office.

Ah Nian was very happy to talk to his father so harmoniously for the first time. Of course, he later learned that on that day, Li Tai, the king of Wei, had asked exactly the same as him to see his father, and he had also heard that Li Tai was going to postpone his marriage to the daughter of the Yan family on the pretext of his young age.
