Chapter 50: Reprimanding Li Chengqian
The tent is very spacious, which is arranged to simulate the marching tent during wartime, which can be regarded as one of Li Kuan's own preferences. A carpet is laid on the floor inside, which is very similar to those costume dramas. There are also two rows of weapon racks, on which are inserted swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks. In short, it is a face-saving thing, in addition to only a small desk, placed in the center of the tent, this is the most important thing in this small tent, behind the desk is a rattan Taishi chair, there is a pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, and there is a bamboo tube with a lot of arrows.
"The second brother invited Gu this time, what is the matter?" After entering the tent, the young man in the python robe asked out loud.
"So what's going on, you must be very clear in your heart, why do you really want me to say it?" Li Kuan walked in front without looking back, just said, he has never had much friendship with Li Chengqian, this eldest brother has always wanted to be higher in front of him since he came to this era, but the gap in the psychological age of the two sides really makes this little boy's appearance very clumsy.
"Second brother, what do you say? It's a fool to listen to my brother! Li Chengqian pretended to be puzzled and asked, although he knew what was going on in his heart, but he didn't dare to tell the truth. This little kid in front of him is not a foolish kid like Qingque, this person is a difficult master like the third brother Li Ke, and the slightest flaw will be caught by them, and then chase after him and completely lose the upper hand. After years of painstaking research and management, he finally gained a foothold in the DPRK. I can't give in now, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to play with the second brother in front of me who has improved his status by killing people in the future.
"Why, at this moment. Do you want to keep it hidden? Do you know what you're doing now? Do you know who you are now? Do you know what you're doing now will be? Li Kuan turned around and asked Li Chengqian loudly, this guy is still sloppy. This is not the responsibility of a prince.
"Second brother, you accuse Yu Gu for no reason. Why? Could it be that Lone really did something wrong? Li Chengqian had long expected that today's trip would not be good, so he had already made preparations.
"In that case, then look at who this is!" As he spoke, Li Kuan pulled out Nalan Yingde, who was already pale, from a corner of the handsome tent: "Take a good look, do you know this person?" ”
"Nalan Yingde, second brother, arrested the court officials privately, but he violated the "Tang Law", where does this put the national law?" When Li Chengqian saw Nalan Yingde, he didn't feel the slightest nervousness. He had long expected that this guy would be caught by Li Kuan, because this was what he ordered when he left last night, if this person fled towards Li Kuan's military camp, it was better to fall into the hands of his brother than to be caught by those people and then sent to Wannian County to report to the official, and he knew Li Kuan over the years, knowing that although this brother was very maverick, he would still maintain the face of the Tang royal family in some important matters. That's why such a decision was made.
Sure enough, he didn't guess wrong, Li Kuan really didn't hand over Nalan Yingde, but handed over the three guards as scapegoats to take the blame. That way, he has room to slow down. There was also an opportunity to quibble. For example, now he is preemptive, saying that Li Kuan has privately imprisoned the imperial court officials, although this Nalan Yingde is just a servant from the East Palace of the Seventh Grade. But he also has an official position, and he is also an official of the imperial court.
"Hehe......" Li Kuan sneered. This so-called big brother has learned these things over the years? Now he actually started to beat a rake, which simply made Li Kuan block all his patience and all his words of persuasion at once. has become a raging anger, he doesn't want to say anything now, he doesn't want to talk to this guy who has been completely corrupted by the officialdom of the court, since it doesn't make sense, then use his own way to let him know what he is doing!
"Why, don't you have anything to say? Lone doesn't know what you're doing this for, but this time Lone forgives you, and I hope you won't go down the wrong path in the future! Now let's talk about Nalan and let it go! Li Chengqian pretended to be a good person and said, a slight smile appeared on his face, this is proud, it is happy, he has been trying to suppress Li Kuan's idea for so many years, and finally got the first chance to gain the upper hand at this time.
"Tell me you're big!" Li Kuan shouted, then turned around and threw it over with a punch, the armor on his body was like a small flying knife, tearing the air, and the original whirring fist breaking through the air became sharp, like the blade of a war knife with a handle quickly cut through the air and the vacuum left behind was quickly filled.
"You ......" Li Chengqian wanted to say 'you are presumptuous', but the last few words were blocked in his throat by Li Kuan's fist, and a fist hit him directly in front of him, knocking him to the ground, his face was hot and painful, as if he had been scalded by a red-hot soldering iron, he was sure that there must be a bright red fist mark on his face now, is this Li Kuan crazy? Dare to attack him here, is he really not afraid of his father's blame?
"Do you know that you are the crown prince? Is it the future master of this Tang Dynasty? Li Kuan bent down and lifted Li Chengqian up, Li Chengqian's thin body was like a fluttering straw in his hand, he lifted him up with one hand, grabbed the placket of Li Chengqian's chest, and lifted it to almost the same height as himself.
"Do you know what you're doing? You are stealing the cattle that the people's families rely on for their survival, are you still worthy of being the prince of the Tang Dynasty? Li Kuan stretched out his free hand as he spoke, and slapped Li Chengqian's face with a whistling wind, and the traces of the five fingers were so obvious, as if they were printed with good dansha ink: "Do you know whose cow you stole is?" It's our people in the Tang Dynasty, these people will be your people in the future, and that's how you treat them? Without these people, what is the point of you as a prince? Li Kuan's eyes stared at Li Chengqian's eyes, the first time the two brothers looked at each other like this.
"Look at me!" Li Kuan said to Li Chengqian, who still couldn't believe it, this guy was already blinded after being knocked down by Li Kuan's punch, he couldn't believe that Li Kuan would do it to him at this time, he was Li Kuan's eldest brother, he was the prince of the Tang Dynasty, from the family point of view, Li Kuan was the elder brother, how could Li Kuan be the younger brother to his brother, from the court, he was the prince, and the prince was the king, and Li Kuan was the minister, the king ordered the minister to die, and the minister had to die. Li Kuan didn't dare to make a move on him, which was also a reliance on him that he had no fear. But Li Kuan, how dare he, how could he do this?
"How dare you be so kind to Lonely?" Li Chengqian said with difficulty, his face was flushed, but Nalan Yingde was still watching.
"What, you're still putting your prince's shelf? Do you know what you've lost by doing this? It is the heart of the people, and it is the most critical thing in the heart of the world, and I am here for your good! Li Kuan interrupted Li Chengqian's outburst: "Do you know that the people of this world are the foundation of your future rule of the world?" Do you know that if you continue to act like this, the Tang Dynasty will be buried in your hands in the future? Li Kuan has been thinking about it all these years, he doesn't want to be the emperor, because he feels that he is not suitable, and at the same time he is also observing, among his brothers, Li Chengqian's guy is okay in other aspects, not like he knows that he is a cripple, and he has a weird temper. Qingque Li Tai is a dead scholar, although he has a little bit of a city government with the growth of age, but he is a little pedantic and has some flaws in his character, and he is a little blind. Li Ke is the most talented of these older brothers, who can be literary and martial, which is rare. But he also understood that this third brother, like himself, would not be regarded as the successor by Li Er no matter what, because of his bloodline.
As for the real next emperor of the Tang Dynasty - the young slave Li Zhi, this little guy is still wiping his nose horizontally, who can say clearly what will happen in the future, although the wheel of history has its own trajectory, but now he is indeed a stone under the wheel, and things in the future may not necessarily develop according to the historical record. In addition, after getting along with each other over the years, even if he is not very friendly with Li Chengqian, but Li Liqian, the eldest grandson, and his son-in-law are stumbled, Li Chengqian is his best choice now, and according to Li Er's thoughts, he wants to prevent the stains on his body from happening again in the next generation, so it is the best choice to break this guy who has not completely gone astray.
"Don't you know why your father and mother chose your name Cheng Qian? Is it really because you were born in the Chengqian Palace? So why did his father, who was the king of Qin at that time, still live in the palace? And live in such a palace? Why did you move out of the palace after giving birth to you? Why don't you understand the intentions of your father and mother? They're all so dedicated to your name, but what are you doing? Li Kuan has not only been observing his brothers and sisters over the years, but also made a bloody investment to Li Er and his wife, and he only learned from the news he got from his own channels how much Li Er and his eldest grandson had done for Li Chengqian, which reminded him of his mother, the person who would never see him again, and the unrequited dedication made him feel an unspeakable love in his heart, which was the reason why he made this move.
"Who are you worthy of doing this? How do you feel wronged, I don't have evidence, don't I? You think you're doing a clean job with no flaws, don't you? As long as you don't admit it, no one can take you? "Since Li Kuan has made a move, then he has to completely end this matter, no matter whether this cheap big brother will hate himself in the future, he is not afraid of this, he is not mixed in the court, it is not so easy for this guy to take his pigtails. And Li Kuan is not afraid of what this guy really does, I believe that what he is doing now will appear on Li Er's desk in a moment, and there will naturally be results at that time.
"Do you really think you're doing it secretly? Is Chang'an City really so undefended? You went out of the city last night, and no one saw you when you entered the city? Do you really think my father would not know? Stop being naïve! You should think about how to explain this qiē to your father! Li Kuan looked at Li Chengqian, whose face was getting paler and paler, and threw him to the ground fiercely. (To be continued......)
