Chapter 4: Father and Son

Underneath a peach grove.

Li Kong and Li Tao sat opposite each other, the surroundings were empty, and the needles could be heard in the huge courtyard.

A pot of turbid wine exudes a faint fragrance under the gentle flame, intertwined with the green fragrance of peaches, which has a unique style.

"I heard that Fairy Cheng said that you almost died?"

"What Uncle Cheng said is a bit excessive, it's just some skin injuries, and after this period of cultivation, it has been ninety percent better."

"That's good, I didn't expect this parting to be more than half a year, you kid is also angry, but you are so angry with your own son, isn't it a little too much?"

Li Kong was shocked, looked up at Li Tao, and then sighed deeply, picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass of wine, and said, "You think I shouldn't be angry?" ”

"Should!" Li Tao stared at Li Kong.

After more than half a year of wind, frost and rain, Li Kong in front of him is less green and more resolute, and his wheat-colored skin exudes a faint halo under the sun, if it weren't for his own son, Li Tao would have found it a little hard to believe that the young man in front of him was only fifteen years old.

Looking at Li Tao's somewhat lonely expression, Li Kong was a little unbearable, especially when Li Fu told him that his mother was not dead, the little resentment towards Li Tao in his heart had almost disappeared.

Now he just wanted to hear an explanation from Li Tao, and that was it.

The so-called Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, even if Li Kong's current soul has crossed over, after all, it is a soul that merges with each other, so Li Tao can still guess seven or eight points.

After saying 'yes', he continued: "I must give an explanation to everyone about your mother's affairs, not only Your Majesty, but also countless heroic spirits who have been killed by Shan Xiongxin, do you really think I am a ruthless person?"

Your mother followed me when I was down, and she never gave up in the years of war, do you really think that someone can take her place?

I'm telling you now, no, no one, let alone the wife in the house now, even if it's you...... My own son cannot replace your mother's place in my heart.

But she needs to be reborn, she needs to reappear in a new identity, an identity that is accepted by everyone.

Do you know? For more than half a year, I have been waiting, waiting for your news, waiting for the day you come back, because only when you come back, can I make up a real marriage ceremony for your mother. ”

"What?" Li Kong stood up suddenly, stared at Li Tao with burning eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"It's not interesting, I just want your mother to marry into this mansion as a dignified duchess, what? Aren't you happy? Li Tao glared at Li Kong.

This is Li Tao's sincere words, if Li Kong can't come back this time, then there is no need to say anything, everything is null and void.

But now that Li Kong is back, Li Tao must give Li Kong's mother and son an explanation.

Back then, Li Kong's mother was nameless and pointless with Li Tao, but she was followed by Shan Xiongxin with a word, and there was not even a basic marriage ceremony in the middle, which is why it was not Li Kong's mother who was named Mrs. British, but another person.

But at this time, when he heard Li Tao's words, Li Kong smiled, a little sad, a little cold, and said, "Then what is my mother's identity?" Wife? Or a concubine? ”

"Wife!" Li Tao made the final decision.

But his words made Li Kong so frightened that he almost didn't jump up, because at this time, Li Tao's wife was no one else, but the Qinghe Wang family, although she was not a concubine, but if Li Tao really abolished the current wife Wang, then with the urine sex of the Kanto family, she would definitely jump up and toss.

And now that the Tang Dynasty has just stabilized, no matter how much Li Shimin is towards Li Tao, it is impossible to offend these family valves, so it is Li Kong's mother and son who suffer in the end.

Therefore, Li Kong directly rejected Li Tao, and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, if you are really good for my mother, don't toss these things that you don't have." ”

"......"

Without waiting for Li Tao to speak, Li Kong continued: "Needless to say, if you really feel guilty about my mother, reward her with a courtyard, so that I can be better than anything else with her for life." ”

Li Tao was shocked by Li Kong's words, and looked the young man in front of him up and down, if it weren't for the fact that his voice and smile had never changed, he would have wondered if this was his son in front of him.

In the past, although Li Kong was also very stable, his head was definitely not so sensitive, and it was impossible for him to be so sensitive to the relationship between officialdom and the family.

Could it all have changed in half a year on the frontier? But what did he go through?

After a long time, Li Tao sighed leisurely and said: "What you said may be right, since this is the case, then you can discuss it with your mother later, if she also agrees, I will give you a courtyard, but you have to remember that once you accept that courtyard, from now on my Li family will have nothing to do with it, tell me, can you afford this responsibility?" ”

Li Kong understands what Li Tao means, it is nothing more than that his mother is 'dead', and she died at the hands of the Wang family, if she comes back to life now, it is completely a provocation to the Wang family, in order to prevent Li Kong from peeping into everything in Li Tao's house, with their style of acting, they will definitely kill Li Kong's mother and son.

Therefore, Li Tao's seemingly ruthless words were completely to protect their mother and son, because only by expelling them from the house could the Wang family stop snooping.

"I know, and I'm ready for anything."

"So...... Go ahead, Li Fu will take you to see your mother. After Li Tao finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to be ten years old, and the whole person looked extremely depressed.

Li Kong looked a little unbearable, but finally got up and resolutely left the courtyard.

But before he reached the gate, Li Fu hurriedly ran over and said loudly: "Master, Your Majesty is here!" ”

Li Kong was shocked, and his footsteps stopped abruptly.

Your Majesty? Li Shimin? The emperor of the ages who wrote a prosperous song in the history of China? The iron-blooded emperor who pushed the reputation of the entire Chinese people to the whole world?

As a Chinese man with strong roots, Li Kong has great respect for this emperor through the ages, even to the point of blindness, otherwise he would not have plunged headlong into the history of the Tang Dynasty and could not extricate himself.

I thought that it would be difficult for me and the emperor to have a chance to meet, and even if they did, it would be a long time later, but I didn't expect everything to come so quickly.

Just when Li Kong was in a trance, a deep and hearty voice came from afar: "Mao Gong, I heard that the rabbit cub is back?" Get him out of here and see me! ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Kong suddenly raised his head, looked straight at the middle-aged man who was walking briskly towards this side, and shouted wildly in his heart: Is he here for me? How can it be?
