came to the imperial city without saying anything all the way, and the little eunuch ran like a dead dog and entered the palace gate and was directly paralyzed, humming and chirping and unable to get up. Vertices are updated the fastest

Li Chengqian glanced at him, didn't say anything, casually found a shared bicycle, and rode towards the old man's Liangyi Palace.

Speaking of which, I have to mention that since the production of the first bicycle, the superintendent has not stopped producing and improving bicycles.

Nowadays, bicycles can be seen everywhere in the entire Chang'an City, and they are no longer exclusive to the gentlemen.

Another point is that with more and more bicycles, the palace also began to become popular, at first the bicycle was just a toy for Changle and others, and then after a long time, the old men who came to the palace to find Li Er's errand found the advantages of this thing, so they spontaneously learned to bicycle.

There was no way, the palace was too big, and they couldn't ride horses and sit in a sedan chair, and a group of old guys began to be unable to walk as they grew older.

And the appearance of the bicycle just solved this embarrassment, and it could save a lot of effort without violating the rules of the palace, and His Majesty Li Er was not an unreasonable person, so he didn't care how they tossed.

Therefore, a large number of bicycles have appeared in various corners of the palace, which is convenient for some big people in the palace and outside the palace to use at any time.

This is what Li Chengqian did not expect at first, and he felt a little funny when he watched the old men in purple robes and scarlet robes in the palace pedal their bicycles like galloping horses.

Riding a bicycle all the way, I arrived at the old man's study, handed over the car to the guard at the door, and after the report, the old man's angry voice came from the study: "Since you are here, come in!" ”

"Whoa!" Li Chengqian first agreed, and then stepped in and entered the old man's study.

I haven't seen him for a few months, and the old man's sideburns have turned a lot grayer, which shows that the old man has not stopped during this time, and he has worked hard to deal with various things that have happened in the country.

"Erchen has seen his father!" After peeking at the old man at the door, Li Chengqian stepped forward respectfully to salute.

"Excuse me!" His Majesty Li Er's expression had an indescribable strangeness, and he waved his hand lightly.

Li Chengqian thought that the old man would be able to say something after the exemption, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement at all, and he couldn't help but raise his head slightly: "Father and Emperor are looking for his son, but what's the matter?" ”

"What? I can't come to you if I have nothing to do? The old man snorted and asked with some displeasure.

"Well...... of course not." Although Li Chengqian knew that he had to pass a level here in the old man before he came here, he didn't expect the old man to rush like this, and he was stunned when he came up.

"It seems that I am the real Lao Tzu, I can't control you!" His Majesty Li Er sighed and said with some frustration.

"Where did my father say this, my sons and daughters can't afford it."

"Where can you afford to incite the courtiers and the people, what are you going to do next?" His Majesty Li Er's tone was still calm, not the meaning but extraordinary.

Li Chengqian stood there quietly, listening to the old man's heart-wrenching words, pursing his lips and being silent.

"Tell me, what are your plans? The territory of the Tang Dynasty is already big enough, could it be that you are really looking for the Han Wu Emperor? Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't speak, the old man continued to ask.

"Father, the idea of the sons is actually very simple, that is, to lay down a big country, even if the juniors are not filial, the loser is enough for them to lose for decades." Li Chengqian raised his head and looked at the old man.

Speaking from his heart, he doesn't have the idea of competing with the old man for the throne at present, but he can't stop the old man from thinking like this, so he can only say his thoughts one by one, regardless of whether the old man believes it or not, but it is good to have a clear conscience.

Sure enough, the old man didn't believe Li Chengqian's reason, and after looking at each other for a long time, he asked lightly, "Is that just like that?" ”

"Father, the sons know that you are crying for the Tang Dynasty, and you often can't sleep at night, and it is precisely because of your hard work that you have the current prosperity."

"But you know what? In the eyes of Erchen, Datang is only sheng, not strong, you have the heart to tolerate the world, but you ignore the sinister nature of human nature, although those alien races are all bowed down at the moment, they just want to ask for the benefits they need from Datang, once Datang can not satisfy them, then they will show their fangs. ”

Li Er was silent on the surface, but a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he was silent for a moment and asked, "This is what you think?" Do you think I'm too soft-hearted? ”

"Yes!" Li Chengqian nodded.

After so many years of contact with the old man, Li Chengqian knows very well that the old man is not a soft-hearted person, but the old man cares too much about his reputation, and has always wanted to work hard to change the impression of killing his brother and captivating his father in the eyes of the world, so he has been restraining his own heart.

As said in the previous article, a bad person, if he has been doing good deeds all his life, then he is a good person in the eyes of people. The same is true of Li Er in Li Chengqian's eyes, in order to change himself in the eyes of the world, he forcibly imprisoned himself from a lion to a sheep, so no matter what his heart is, Li Er has become a wise monarch in the image of the world.

But is this what Datang really needs? No, it's not, what Datang needs is not 'sheng' but 'strong'.

Imagine when the Han Dynasty was martial, did anyone dare to hand a claw to the Han? Wherever the Han cavalry passed, there were many males and females, this is the realm that Li Chengqian wants the Tang Dynasty to reach.

In the face of Li Chengqian's simple and direct answer, His Majesty Li Er, who was calm, suddenly smiled, and that smile was like an ancient beast in Li Chengqian's eyes.

But soon, that feeling disappeared again, and the old man's smile was still so kind, making people feel like a spring breeze.

Then, the old man with a faint smile asked, "What you said is true?" ”

"At least in the eyes of the world." Li Chengqian said stubbornly.

He was gambling on whether the old man would act according to his heart, or according to the impression he had always left to the world.

The atmosphere in the room seemed very awkward, so embarrassing that the old eunuch Fang behind Li Er was a little at a loss.

Finally, His Majesty Li Er still spoke: "Li Gaoming, you are a person who doesn't care about your reputation, I don't know whether it is right or wrong to hand over Datang to you, so I decided to give you a chance, a chance for you to show your strengths." ”

"Huh?" Li Chengqian raised his head in surprise.

"From today on, you will resume the identity of the crown prince, you have three years, if you can achieve everything you said within three years, and make Datang more prosperous, I will completely hand over Datang to you." But if not...... You pack your things and get ready to go to Lingnan. ”
