Chapter XIV: Exchange

"Father, is that really the decision?" Li Kuan also stood up, he looked anxiously at Li Er standing on the high platform, his eyes were full of disbelief. Is this still the father in my impression? Why did the father who laughed with Lizhi become so strange, this ruthless decision really came from the father who has always loved Lizhi? Or is it that the pinnacle of power has stood for a long time, overlooking the world for a long time, and it really consumes the feelings in his heart?

"Kuan'er, although this world is our Li family, it is also the people of the world, everyone has their own destiny, and everyone has their own position. No matter how noble you are born, as long as you are in this heaven and earth, there is no freedom that is not fettered! Li Er looked at the hourglass beside him, and there was still half an hour left: "I am the lord of this world, is this world really mine?" Are all those who harbor dissenting hearts really gone? Is the world really all in the heart? Li Er looked at the door of the closed Lizheng Palace, on that side were the ministers of the world, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and the most prominent group of people in the world except for the royal family. How many of them are on their side? How many of them have evil intentions?

"Father!" Li Kuan still can't accept it, this thing is really not something he can play, he is not as good at pretending to be crazy and stupid as Cheng Biting Jin and Wei Chigong, nor is he the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others are scheming, and even Wei Zheng's stubborn temper that is willing to cut his body and dare to pull the emperor off the horse, he is just an ordinary person, he can do a little punching, and he just wants that the people he cares about and those who care about him can live a happy life, but his identity does not allow it. It's a kind of helplessness.

"Needless to say, there are some things that cannot be compromised no matter what!" Li Er said coldly.

"Father!" Li Kuan was unwilling and wanted to make a final effort.

"Go down!" Li Eryi waved his sleeves. Let Li Kuan go down. Then turned around and turned his back to him. What Li Kuan didn't see was that after turning around, Li Ershuang's eyebrows furrowed, and a trace of pain flashed between his eyebrows, in fact, he was reluctant to marry Li Lizhen to Changsun Chong, as the person at the peak of power in the Tang Empire, how could he, as the monarch of a country, not know Changsun Chong's virtues. But he also has his own considerations, the authority of the eldest grandson Wuji is increasing day by day, depending on his body and bones. It is not a big problem to live for a few more decades, so that he will definitely be a powerful minister in the future. Coupled with the relationship between the eldest grandson Wuji and the queen, Li Er had to think about it first if he wanted to move. And the eldest grandson Wuji is also interested in being a man, so Li Er's attitude towards him is to woo.

How to win over such a powerful minister. It's very simple for the emperor. Reward wealth, beautiful women, and high officials. These methods are all effective, but such small means can only ensure that he is loyal for a while, and dare not guarantee that he will be loyal to a lifetime. Therefore, there is another way to get married, and become in-laws, so that the children and daughters can really gain a lifetime of loyalty.

It's just that which princess to marry into the eldest grandson's family, Li Er hesitated again. This one is reluctant, and that one is inappropriate. In short, Li Er put a lot of thought into it. Didn't find a suitable candidate, Changsun Chong is thirteen years old this year, as old as Li Chengqian, and has reached the age of marriage, and Li Er's princess, only Li Lizhi is suitable for marriage, Li Liqian, who is thirteen years old, is about the same age as Changsun Chong, the two have known each other since childhood, Changsun Chong also likes his cousin very much, and Li Lizhi does not hate his cousin very much. This qiē seems to be so harmonious, but Li Er's own feelings are reluctant, Li Lizhi has always been his heart, intimate little padded jacket. When she was a child, only she and the little demon king Yu Zhang dared to climb up along their thighs, and only the two of them would sweetly hug their necks and call their fathers. There are so many memories, too many good things. For the sake of the country, the society will be buried, and it will turn into dry bones in the mound in his heart.

"Father! Erchen ......" Li Kuan saw Li Er turn around and hurriedly shouted.

"Get out!" Li Er shouted loudly, and it was spread back and forth in this empty hall.

"Erchen is not leaving, Erchen is willing to exchange the military exploits of this trip for a beautiful marriage!" Lee Kuan spoke out loud about his conditions.

"Are you exchanging? Do you know that you are not joking? Do you know what you say? Li Er really felt angry, and repeatedly contradicted himself, did he really think that I had no temper? The long and narrow tiger's eyes widened, and he turned around, and the long back swing of the tiger fluttered with his movements.

"Erchen knows that his military merit is not enough, and Erchen uses it to make up for it!" Li Kuan said and untied the package that he had been carrying behind his back all the way, held it in his hand, and said to Li Er very calmly. It seems that the things in his hands are really more valuable than winning over the eldest grandson's family.

"Oh, what's that? Since Kuan'er is so sure, I will definitely agree? Li Er didn't know where Li Kuan's confidence came from, what would be in that small package, was it really worth it, he would rather go back on his word and break his promise and exchange it!

"That's nature! For this thing, Erchen and Changle were ambushed at the post station fifty miles away! Li Kuan swore that although he had always had other ideas in his mind, but now, in order to enhance his persuasiveness, he would rather believe that the previous attackers were here for this thing.

"Who is so bold? Dare to ambush a prince and princess at the feet of the Son of Heaven outside Gyeonggi? Who it is, I want to know who it is! "Li Eryi heard that someone had ambushed Li Kuan and Li Liqing, and he was immediately furious, is this worth it? At the foot of this Son of Heaven, fifty miles outside the capital, it was completely at the gate of Chang'an City, and someone dared to secretly set up an ambush to deal with his children, this is to rebel?

Li Er's roar resounded in the Lizheng Palace, and the ministers outside the gate also listened to it tremblingly, such a violent anger, it has rarely appeared in His Majesty in the past few years, the last time was when the Turks invaded south, and why this time? Wasn't the Turks defeated, could it be His Royal Highness the King of Chu?

Only the few people with strong martial arts in the group of military generals, their ears trembled, and their faces were shocked, they heard the specific content in the hall, of course, it was just Li Er's loud roar. But this sound is enough, the news is too exciting, someone actually ambushed the prince and princess, what is the situation? It seems that there are really people with bad intentions in secret, and there are really people who still covet that high position. The water of the Tang Dynasty is probably going to be muddy again, so it's okay, with these careerists, these generals have zài value!

"Dark one, dark one......" Li Er shouted quickly, but no one answered for a long time. Seeing this scene, Li Ercai suddenly woke up, and Dark One was transferred to the grassland by him to perform a secret mission, and a previous burst of anger made him suddenly habitually call out this code name, and now it was Dark Three lurking beside him.

"Come out! Don't be lazy! "Unlike the absolute obedience and absolute obedience of the dark one, the dark three seem to have a lot of personality and are often lazy. But Li Er was not angry, because he knew that those who could join the secret guard must be loyal to the royal family, and the higher the codename, the better their skills. A fierce general like Qin Qiong, who kills in and out of the army, and takes the head of the enemy general like a bag, is actually ranked seventh, which can be seen from this.

"Holy Lord, there is something you command!" A lazy business came. Li Kuan was extremely surprised, although he could feel that the sound was coming from the corner, but he couldn't see that there was someone in the direction from which the voice came.

"Don't look, these people never appear in front of people lightly!" Li Er saw Li Kuan's surprised expression, and the anger in his heart was slightly suppressed, this kid is so mysterious, and there are times when he is surprised!

"Father, the emperor ......" Li Kuan hurriedly bowed down and stood up.

"Go and find out, who is it that attacked the King of Chu and Princess Changle on the way! If you can't find out anything this time, you guys can do it yourself! Li Er said coldly.

"Don't worry, last time it was the guy who only knew about rampage, and if he was asked to investigate, he rushed to someone's house to rummage through the cabinets to find clues, so what can he find! This time I won't disappoint the saint! The lazy voice was still so slow and methodical.

"Hmph...... It's a good saying, if you don't do it well, you lazy cat will have to peel off the skin of your body! Li Er was obviously very annoyed by this guy's attitude, but he still tolerated it, this guy in the secret still has some ability.

"Alright, Kuan'er, let me see what you want to offer in exchange for what you think is priceless beauty!" After Li Er's guy in the secret was ordered to leave, he turned around and asked Li Kuandao.

"Father, please look at ......" Li Kuan picked up the burden in his hands with both hands, held it above his head, and presented it to Li Er.

Li Erxin took it with his hand, the small burden was very weighty, and it was heavy in his hand, and it seemed that it was filled with a stone. Li Er slowly untied the knots tied together, put the burden on the table in front of the Nine Dragons chair, and then unfolded layer by layer, the package was not large, but it was wrapped tightly, layer after layer. It can be seen that Li Kuan is very careful about this thing, and he must be afraid of bumping into it if it is wrapped so tightly. Li Er's interest is even stronger, this little son. I've always been surprised by all kinds of things.,I've never been so concerned about one thing.。

"This ...... This is ......" Li Er unfolded the package, and the contents made him stutter, and he also had a new understanding of Li Kuan's boldness, this guy actually played so big, he really should teach a good lesson.

"How? Can this thing be exchanged? Li Kuan was a little excited when he saw Li Er's appearance, this is called the debt of the present world, and it is repaid quickly. Li Er was still laughing at him just now, and he couldn't find anyone hiding in the shadows, but now he was laughed back by Li Kuan, of course, Li Kuan could only hold back, there was still a big gap compared to Li Er daring to say it directly.

"Why is this in your hands?" Li Er asked in surprise, as far as he knew, this thing should not be in Li Kuan's hands.

"Father, don't care why it's in the hands of your son, as long as you say it, can this thing be exchanged for a beautiful marriage!" Li Kuancai didn't want to say more, some things are still mysterious. (To be continued......)
