Chapter 69 Happiness and Hardship
"Hehe, it's good for you to call the shots, our Datang has been too hard in the past few years. Sometimes I wonder if I don't become the emperor, will I be in a better place? Li Er muttered softly, although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods outside, he didn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but whenever he went to the helpless, he would always think about it, and he didn't ask for it, so that the people under his rule would be better.
If Changsun Chong hears Li Er's words, he can quote a sentence from "Dream of Red Mansions" written by Cao Xueqin: "There is more than enough behind you to withdraw your hand, and there is no way to turn back." β
Empress Changsun hugged Li Er from behind and said: "Second brother, there is no turning back when we open the bow, we can only move forward, the second brother has many loyal courtiers to assist, and the concubines also believe that the second brother has the ability to become a good emperor and create a foundation for all generations!" β
"By the way, how is my father now?" Li Er cleaned up his mood and thought of his father who was claustrophobic in the palace, because every time he passed, his father was expressionless and didn't look at him squarely, Li Er knew that his father hated him and annoyed him.
Empress Changsun went to Li Yuan every time to ask for peace, Li Yuan didn't give his son a good look, but he was still good to his daughter-in-law, even if he had a cold face at the beginning, but he didn't take the child to settle down in the morning and dusk, Li Yuan just had a big resentment, but it melted in front of the junior's blood relatives.
"My father said that he was okay today, and he also played a game of chess with Cheng Qian, praised Cheng Qian for making a lot of progress, and rewarded him with the jade pendant he carried." Empress Eldest Sun said softly.
Li Er smiled, was in a better mood, and said, "That's good!" My father hates me, but it's okay to like children, and in the future, you will often take your son and daughter to accompany your father. By the way, glass ornaments and mirrors, send some to my father, pick up the best. β
Li Er is now like a child who urgently needs to be praised, hoping to be recognized by his father. Because Li Er knew in his heart that only if his father forgave him, he could be freed from the Xuanwumen Change. Otherwise, he killed his brother and forced his father to abdicate, and the shadow of the throne he just got would always surround him and make him breathless.
No one knows Li Er better than Empress Changsun, and persuaded him: "My father is not an unreasonable person, as long as the second brother can make the Tang Dynasty strong and the people rich, I believe that my father will be happy." β
Li Er's eyes regained his perseverance, he has been the pride of his parents since he was a child, he was, he is, and he will be even more in the future, he must make achievements, and let his father know that only he can be worthy of this throne.
The ministers were holding two treasures, so that everyone's eyes were focused on these two treasures, but the Turkic people were invited, and there were a lot fewer people who paid attention.
Second, the eldest grandson Chong, Li Yexu, Duan Qiang, and Cheng Chumo were tied up to the Chang'an Mansion, and the Turkic Lakuban was so happy that he would never let go of this opportunity to show off, this time he looked at the beaten but after the Tang Dynasty ministers, those old things who were dragged to death in peace, now they can only watch the child being beaten, and he must feel very uncomfortable! However, when they are uncomfortable, the Ambassador is happy.
That day, it was the eldest grandson Chong who made the first move, and he always felt that he couldn't go, so he let the other brothers be beaten.
"I'm sorry, brothers, for bothering you." The eldest grandson said apologetically.
Li Yexu didn't care and said: "Isn't it just twenty boards, why is the eldest grandson Chong such a little daughter, it's stingy." β
"That's it, besides, everyone has done it, and they should be punished!" Duan Zan didn't care even more, if his father did it, it would be heavier than this, so it would be better to be beaten here.
"Lao Cheng can't protect his brothers, I hope his brothers don't blame Lao Cheng!" In addition to his strength, Cheng Chumo also has righteousness, which is also the reason why Changsun Chong likes to get along with Cheng Chumo.
The eldest grandson clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, after the fight, brother, I will have someone send a good knife and creation medicine, and soon we will be able to jump around, drink together, and fight together!" β
The four of them lay on the bench one by one, waiting for the execution, the thug is a good hand in the government, and he has already received a notice that he must be lifted high and beaten hard, but he can't really hurt these sons and brothers, and technical work is needed here.
Just as the fight was about to start, Du He squeezed through the crowd and said, "I also have a part in the fight that day, brothers, I will accompany you!" β
"It's nothing to do with you, hurry back!" The eldest grandson Chong gave Du He a look and asked this product to leave quickly, and whoever admits it at this time will be beaten! There's no need to get everyone beaten!
Chai Lingwu also squeezed in, stiffened his neck, and said: "We left first that day, but we are not cowards, we can't hold on, and there is a master in the fight!" β
Looking at the back, Xiao Rui, Wei Shuyu, Wei Chi Baoqing and others stood up and wanted to be punished together with Changsun Chong and others.
"You fools, you're just coming here now to get more people beaten, what do you get!" The eldest grandson Chong said angrily, how can these brothers be rectums, worthless sacrifices are meaningless, I really don't understand.
Cheng Chubi wiped the sweat from his head and said, "My father once said to our brothers that he would leave his brother behind at any time. Abandon the first, and there will be a second. If you don't believe in your brother on the battlefield and abandon your brother, you won't end well. That day, we all fought together, so naturally we had to accept the punishment together, and the people of our old Cheng family did not watch their brother being punished, and they stood on the side to watch the deeds. β
The Turkic envoy Rakuban saw that another one jumped out, laughed and said: "This brother is good, don't you Tang people say that you people share blessings and hardships?" I've heard, you seem to have twenty or so of you! β
A few more people stood up and said, "If you want to fight, you can fight, the master is not afraid!" β
"Okay, since you sent it, then if I let you go, it will be unfair to others, let's start now!" Rakuban smiled smugly and snorted coldly.
It's a cold day, but in addition to layers of dense beads of sweat on Yin Liu Zhenghe's anxious head of Chang'an Mansion, if you take off the official hat, it is estimated that it will be hot. personally received instructions from the emperor, praying for a quick execution and sending these four meritorious deeds back, but he never expected that Hulala would come after many confessions of meritorious deeds.
None of the people here can afford to mess with, Changsun Chong is the maiden nephew of the current Empress Changsun; Duan Zan is the second son of General Duan, the eldest son of General Duan has been married for many years and has no children, so he expects these two sons to become relatives and inherit the lineage, and there can be no mistakes; Li Yexu is the grandson of the Tang Dynasty military god, and it is even more difficult to offendΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Yin Liu Zhenghe, who was sandwiched between the Turks and the following gang of meritorious deeds, didn't know what to do, so he had to look at Li Ji, who was watching Xing together.
Li Ji looked at the meritorious disciples below, and he couldn't reprimand, but His Majesty also explained that he must deal with the matter today. After thinking about it, he nodded at Liu Zhenghe.
Liu Zhenghe saw Li Ji nodding, as if he had found the backbone, and said, "Execution!" β
Eighteen people lay on their stomachs on eighteen benches, and long sticks hit them on the buttocks. In addition to not holding back at first, someone shouted a few times, but after hearing the rampant ridicule of the Turks, he gritted his teeth, even if he was killed, he would not shout again, since he was a child, he was educated by the nobility, this bit of backbone is still there, no matter how he said it, he is a family with a head and a face, and if he loses face, he can earn it back, and if he loses his lining, he can't pick it up.
These people are carefully cultivated in the family, they can be squirrel, they can be scoundrels, they can be ruthless, but they can't be without responsibility, and a man who has no responsibility will be spurned by everyone.
