Chapter 1251: Li Xiu's Request
Speaking of his sons, Li Shimin is also a stomach full of bitter water, especially when talking about Li Chengqian, it makes him feel desperate, although Li Xiuming knows that Li Shimin has a lot of responsibility for this matter, but he can only try to comfort him, fortunately, Li Zhi's existence makes Li Shimin feel better, and later the two also talked about many things related to Li Zhi.
In the end, it was getting late, Li Shimin was about to return to the palace, and Li Xiu personally sent him out of the door, but just as Li Shimin was about to get into the car, Li Xiu suddenly hesitated, and finally stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister has a request, I hope Your Majesty can agree!" ”
"Oh? You seldom open your mouth to ask for me, I don't know what could make you open your mouth? Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then asked with an interested expression.
"Actually, the minister's words may be a little redundant, but the minister still wants to ask Your Majesty, if the prince really does anything wrong in the future, please ask Your Majesty to be more considerate of the prince!" Li Xiu took a deep breath and pleaded, although the relationship between him and Li Chengqian had broken down, the other party was taught by him after all, and there was no difference between father and son emotionally.
In addition, Li Xiu also knows very well that the death of the heart is also the most direct cause of Li Chengqian's rebellion, because after this incident, Li Chengqian's hatred for Li Shimin will exceed family affection, and naturally there are no emotional concerns, but with Li Shimin's current control of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian is doomed to failure, although Li Shimin was not willing to kill Li Chengqian in the original history, but now that history has changed, Li Xiu is also worried that Li Shimin will change his mind at that time, so he helped Li Chengqian intercede in advance.
Li Shimin naturally didn't know what Li Xiu was thinking, but he thought that Li Xiu was saying that after the satisfactory incident, Li Chengqian would make more trouble, so he asked him not to blame Li Chengqian too much, so at this time, he also laughed and said: "Don't worry, no matter how much Cheng Qian messes around, he is also my son, even if he does something wrong, I will definitely forgive him!" ”
Li Xiu also knew that Li Shimin had misunderstood what he meant, but he didn't explain it too much, and he couldn't explain it, and if Li Chengqian really rebelled in the future, he hoped that he would remember what he said today.
At the moment Li Shimin got into the carriage, speaking of which, when Li Shimin traveled in the past, he always went out on horseback, but over the years he has slowly changed from riding a horse to riding a car, firstly, because he is an emperor, he is easy to be recognized on a horse, which causes unnecessary trouble, and secondly, he is also older, and his skills are not as vigorous as when he was young before, and even in the past two years, he has begun to gain weight, his belly is high and bulging, and it has become a little difficult to even turn over and get on the horse.
Watching Li Shimin's carriage go farther and farther, Li Xiu sighed and turned back home, but his mood was very heavy, and he had no intention of going to dinner, so he locked himself in the room alone, the more he thought about the current situation, the more powerless he felt, this situation was not the first time that this situation had occurred, when Li Shimin launched the Xuanwu Change, he had already known that history would repeat itself, but there was no way to stop it, and this time it was the same.
"O throne, can it really be paved with blood and bones?" In the end, Li Xiu sighed again and said to himself, Li Shimin gave the Tang Dynasty a bad start, killed his brother and imprisoned his father to seize the throne, in the original history, every inheritance of the Tang Dynasty throne will be accompanied by bloody wind and rain, and the reason why Li Xiu taught Li Chengqian carefully was to hope to change the fate of the Tang Dynasty from Li Chengqian, but now it seems that all the previous efforts have come to naught, and Li Chengqian almost has more than eighty percent chance of going down the old path.
"Knock knock~" But at this moment, he suddenly heard a knock on the door, which made Li Xiu stunned, "Who?" ”
"It's me!" The voice of Princess Pingyang came from outside.
Li Xiu heard that it was Princess Pingyang, and immediately couldn't help but stand up and open the door, only to see Princess Pingyang standing outside the door, still holding a few side dishes in her hand, and when she saw Li Xiu, she also showed a smile and said: "I didn't see my husband when I was eating just now, Yuechan was worried that you would be hungry, so she personally made a few side dishes for me to deliver, after all, she has a child and can't leave." ”
Li Xiu also hurriedly let Princess Pingyang in at this time, and then said with a smile: "Actually, I'm just a little worried, it's not a big deal, but I let you worry about it." ”
Princess Pingyang knew that Li Shimin was here today, but she never asked about Li Shimin, and she also knew that if there was really anything related to the family's major affairs, Li Xiu would definitely discuss it with her, and as for other things, she would not care.
At the moment, Princess Pingyang put a few side dishes made by Yuechan, and there was also a bowl of porridge that was just right, all of which Li Xiu loved to eat, speaking of which, since Yuechan had a child, she rarely had time to cook, only occasionally when Li Xiu was in a bad mood, she would cook a few good dishes.
Originally, Li Xiu was really not in the mood to eat, but looking at the few small dishes he loved in front of him, he was still aroused by his appetite, and immediately picked up the chopsticks and ate them like a whirlwind, seeing Li Xiu's appearance, Princess Pingyang next to him showed a reassuring smile, as long as her husband can take good care of his body, she will be relieved as a wife.
After Li Xiu finished eating, Princess Pingyang packed up the dishes and chopsticks and prepared to leave, but at this time, Li Xiu suddenly thought of something, so he asked: "Lady, is there any letter from Chengdao and Qi Niang during this time?" ”
"Didn't they send a letter once this year, why did the husband still ask?" Princess Pingyang asked with some confusion at this time.
"Didn't Chengdao write last time that Qi Niang was pregnant again, I calculated the time and it was time to give birth, but I don't know how Qi Niang and the child are?" Li Xiu replied with a smile at the moment, but he was thinking about the last time Li Chengqian said in his letter, Li Yuan fell ill in the Americas, and he couldn't get out of bed for several months, so it is estimated that it will be difficult to survive this year, and he doesn't know what happened now? It's just that this news can't be told to Princess Pingyang.
Hearing that Li Xiu was worried about Qi Niang, Princess Pingyang did not suspect it, and smiled and comforted him a few words, and then left, but after Princess Pingyang left, Li Xiu fell into contemplation again, this time he was not only thinking about Li Chengqian's affairs, but also worried about Li Yuan's situation, and even the bearded guest was not in good health in the past two years, and it was impossible to return to the Central Plains by boat, so Zhang Shiyi was also ready to take Qu Yi to the Americas.
A few days later, Li Shimin lifted Li Chengqian's punishment ahead of schedule and restored his freedom, but as Li Chengqian's confinement was lifted, he did a series of even more absurd actions as Li Xiu expected.
