Chapter 626 is really cool

Standing on the stone bridge of Chengtianmen, Li Yuan said a lot of words, sketching a very beautiful future for Li Xian, for himself, and for Datang. I have to say that if Li Yuan's vision can really become a reality, from his point of view, this can indeed be regarded as a happy situation. The story of a child who was abandoned in front of a nunnery and eventually grew up to be a general in the Tang Dynasty is inspirational enough to inspire a generation or even generations.

Perhaps many years later, when people talk about Li Xian, there will be a new word for parents to educate their children...... Throw you to the nunnery.

Li Yuan was a little talking to himself about the future, and Li Xian just listened with a smile on the corner of his mouth. Li Yuan asked him how he was, and Li Xian said that it sounded beautiful. Li Yuan is a thin figure and his white hair is not beautiful in any way, so he can only think that he is beautiful.

But it is obvious that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is moved by his tolerance and kindness, and he did not hear Li Xian's words. In Li Xian's opinion, he thought it was indeed too beautiful, and it seemed that half of the Tang Dynasty would be as stable as a mountain when he moved his mouth. But in fact, this kind of thing is the most realistic, and lies are often the most beautiful language, which can charm many people to fight frantically.

But Li Xian has never been an optimist, and he has never believed in the idea that human nature is good. Perhaps it is true that people are very kind in a certain period, but most of the time, the deepest hidden thing in people's hearts is not to do good, but to do evil. Some people will tell a lie beautifully and satisfactorily, then he is a politician. Some people also like to tell lies, but the lies told are childish and inferior, then the person is an idiot.

In fact, the human world is full of all kinds of lies, and some people divide lies into two categories. Good intentions, or bad faith. There is no doubt that the lies that Li Yuan is telling now have no good intentions. Li Xian thought of the idle princes who were waiting for him at the gate of Xineyuan City before, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

If Li Yuan still had a good idea in his heart, Li Xian pacified Hebei according to his idea, opened up Liaoxi, and then really entered Liaodong as a pioneer general. So no matter whether the war against the Goguryeo people is won or lost, his best ending is nothing more than to be like Li Zhiyun and their concubine sons, who live a mediocre life, drink flower wine, and buy a few beautiful little maids to hug left and right.

This was once Li Xian's ideal state of life, it was once.

How can a person who is addicted to reading and reading can fantasize about one day living a life of walking birds and fighting dogs?

Li Yuan didn't interject a word when Li Yuan said these words, he just listened calmly, not angry, not moved, and just indifferent.

When Li Yuan found that his face was so calm, he was stunned for a moment, and then found that he was a little out of shape.

But Li Xian's reaction didn't make him feel that something was wrong, and indifference may be the most appropriate state. As a child who has been abandoned for twenty years, it is impossible to drool over a future casually sketched by his father, and then bow to the ground and thank Dade.

He won't do anything excessive, such as brushing his sleeves away, because he's a son. Even if he has no feelings, he is the emperor's son, so Li Yuan felt that Li Xian's reaction was not contrived. And it is not easy to grasp this state, so Li Xian feels that he also has the potential to compete for the Oscar. Now Li Xian somewhat understands a sentence, every qualified politician is a great actor.

Li Yuan stopped talking, and asked himself if he was too anxious?

But as an emperor and a father, he did not allow himself to show a weak and compromised side in front of his courtiers. He glanced at Li Xian, and then asked.

"Are you reluctant?"

Li Xian suddenly laughed, the process of laughter from small to large from smiling to laughing out loud changed very naturally, his laughter revealed a desolation, sadness and a trace of anger, even Li Xian himself felt that just a few laughs with different meanings were enough to make professional actors ashamed.

"Huh...... Hey...... Hahahaha"

The laughter drifted far above the Taiji Palace, startling a wild bird that landed on the eaves. The guards and attendants in the distance subconsciously looked over and then quickly turned their heads away, pretending not to hear the laughter.

"What do you want me to say?"

After stopping the laughter, Li Xian looked at Li Yuan's increasingly ugly face, shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "It's like a lion cub who was abandoned by the tribe because he was not beautiful, and he had to face all kinds of difficult and difficult environments in the jungle alone before he was weaned. The lion cub carefully avoided all dangers, did not drown in the swamp, did not freeze to death in the harsh winter, did not starve to death because he could not catch prey, and was even willing to grovel to a rabbit in order to survive, and even ate turnips like a rabbit. ”

He looked into Li Yuan's eyes and said, "It's a miracle that such a poor guy has grown up, and when he becomes strong, he no longer has to worry about not having enough to eat." He tirelessly urinated on the trees, demarcating his territory that no one could infringe on. Suddenly, one day a lion saw him, and found that the lone lion was very pleasing to the eye, and had royal blood, and recognized the lone lion as the one abandoned by the tribe, so the lion quickly ran back and reported it to his king. ”

The Lion King found the lone lion, looked at him, nodded and said, You have done a good job all these years, my son, you have not lost my face. As long as you are willing to give up your territory and prostrate yourself at my feet and kiss my toes, I will allow you to return to the Kind. Of course, you have to be absolutely obedient, you have to be absolutely loyal. ”

Li Xian smiled coldly, and he asked Li Yuan, "Do you think this story is ridiculous?" ”

Li Yuan looked at him and said in a cold tone: "Ridiculous, very ridiculous." ”

"Really?"

Li Xian smiled and said, "But unfortunately, it's not a joke. ”

……

……

Silence, after Li Xian finished saying this, there was a palpitating silence between the two of them. Li Yuan's eyes were murderous, and he carefully looked at the young man in front of him who did not have the slightest awe of himself, only to realize that so many words he had said before were a joke in the eyes of this young man.

He felt his face burn, and the anger in his heart began to boil.

"It's really too much for the lion king to let the lone lion prostrate at his feet and kiss his toes......"

I don't know how long it took, Li Yuan suddenly sighed and said with a somewhat lonely expression: "But do you think that letting the lion king kneel down in front of the lone lion and confess his mistakes is a perfect story?" Have you ever wondered if this is really the lion king? Does the lion king still have the majesty and dignity he deserves in the clan? ”

"yes......"

Li Xian's answer continued to cut the emperor's dignity like a knife.

"In front of the lion king, any lion does not need to have dignity, they only need to obey the lion king's orders, and then eat a few leftover bones thrown over, and then be grateful to Dade with sincerity."

"Are you deliberately provoking me?"

Li Yuan looked at Li Xian's eyes and asked.

"At a very young age, I knew that it was absolutely the most pointless thing to provoke anyone but the enemy, even if there was nothing else to do but provoke the other."

Li Xian replied-for-tat.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?"

"You've already killed me once."

Then there was a long silence, and I don't know when the wind blew in from afar, blowing the clothes of the two men and making a hunting sound, and they looked into each other's eyes, and neither of them wanted to turn their heads first. It seems that the eye contact is a war, but there is no doubt that Li Xian's last words pierced into the deepest darkness of Li Yuan's heart like a knife. With his current position, if someone else spoke to him like this, he would not hesitate to order the guards to fork him out and beat him to death. But with the young man in front of him, he couldn't make such a choice.

"It's not right."

Li Yuan took a breath and then slowly spit it out, looked at the corner of the main hall in the night, and said with some distraction: "But you should also understand that if I didn't do that at the beginning, the entire Li family would have fallen into the abyss and never recovered!" I am not just a father, but also the head of a family. I can tell you that if I had another choice, I would still do it. ”

"I know"

Li Xian sneered and said: "It is always a very extravagant and delusional thing to make an emperor apologize, I said those things not because I want you to apologize, I just want to tell you...... Everyone has everyone's pride, whether he is a beggar or an emperor. ”

"If I hadn't thought of the father-son relationship, do you think I would have allowed you to speak so presumptuously?"

He didn't wait for Li Xian to answer, he waved his hand as if his patience was exhausted and said, "You must do the matter of giving up the Eastern Capital, and you must also do the matter of Dou Jiande of the Northern Expedition." Unless you don't want to come back to me, if you just want to get revenge on me, I won't kill you, or even let you go back, and then defeat you head-on on the battlefield! ”

Looking at Li Xian's face, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "If you have such a stubborn temper, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later." Your mother is a gentle person, why doesn't your temperament resemble hers in a bit? ”

"Because I didn't grow up smelling my mother, and I didn't know what kind of temperature my mother's arms were like."

Li Xian smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I don't know in what capacity you said just now, did you declare war on me as an emperor, or did you call the shots as a father?" ”

"Father!"

Li Yuan said two words heavily, and then said word by word: "You can never deny that you have my blood in your bones." ”

"I won't talk about these things today, but I will have time to say them in the future, I know that you have a lot of resentment in your heart. I don't think I've heard what you say today, and if you go in your left ear and come out in your right ear, you won't stay in your mind. Although I am the king of a country and am used to flattery, I can't tell whether what you just said is really resentful or just venting your dissatisfaction and resentment. So I don't blame you...... I won't explain anything to you anymore, because what I said to you before still counts. If a father can't even bear the resentment of his own children, then he is not qualified to be an emperor with the world in mind. Don't try to provoke me anymore, it would seem to me to be as naïve as a child playing a scoundrel. ”

Li Xian's expression was stunned for a moment, and then he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Strong, warm, these two methods Li Yuan used extremely skillfully, which had to make Li Xian a little admired. He stubbornly held the scolding words in his stomach, but his face pretended to be unconvinced and a little aggrieved. If life is like a play, tonight's performances by both of them will surely become the pinnacle.

"Go see your mother, she...... It's almost the end of the road. ”

Li Yuan turned around and walked in the direction of the imperial city, his hands were on his shoulders, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Li Xian followed him all the way to the queen's bedroom, Li Yuan went in first, and he stood outside alone and waited. Thinking of the conversation between the two of them before, remembering the expression he made and the expression on Li Yuan's face, he couldn't help but smile, and then whispered a few words to himself.

"Rival play...... It's so cool. ”
