In the Dragon Scale City Palace, Li Xuanli, the Son of Heaven, was walking in the back garden, accompanied by several murderous master guards and a slightly younger person behind him. And behind them, they were followed by a group of concubines, palace maids, and subordinates from afar.

The person behind Li Xuanli is not confused when he looks at his age. The face is delicate and the heavenly court is full, which is quite similar to the former. At this time, he was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the accessories on his body were rare treasures in the world, and his identity could be seen. In front of the emperor, he was also unreserved, swaggering and pacing with his hands, and his face was full of unruliness......

Li Xuanli seemed to be a little tired from walking, and saw a pavilion in front of him, and the pavilion leaned against a bay of pond water, showing a clear breeze and elegant quietness, so he paced forward. Seeing this, the subordinates hurriedly ran forward, set up stools, made tea, and put melons and fruits...... In the blink of an eye, they were all set up and retreated.

The guards stood guard at the various exits of the pavilion, and the middle-aged man ignored them so much, and went straight to the guards and went in. Looking at the former, it seems that this person has an excellent relationship with Li Xuanli.

Li Xuanli took a sip of fragrant tea, and casually greeted the former: "Zhaoyu, come and sit next to your father~ I don't know what you've been doing lately, I can't see anyone all the time." You see~ we haven't seen each other for a long time, and even the topic has become less. Besides, it's good to spend more time with your mother......

It turned out that this person was Li Xuanli's eldest son and the eldest prince of Hezhen - Li Zhaoyu!

The latter was not restrained, sat opposite Li Xuanli with a big grin, took a piece of pear for himself, and tasted it lightly. After he finished eating, he wiped his mouth, and then replied: "Father, you also know that it is an eventful time now, and the war on the border is flickering and dark. Seeing that his father and emperor had every opportunity, the sons not only had to deal with many tedious things in the palace, but also devoted themselves to the rebellion of the alien races in the northwest...... Erchen also wants to worry about his father, so he has taken several princes around the border in the past few years, please forgive Erchen for not being able to stay with his father and mother often~"

After hearing this, Li Xuanli couldn't help but sigh, and said earnestly: "Zhaoyu~ It's not for my father to say you, you will inherit my position in the future and achieve great things! How can you be like a reckless man, who doesn't know how to run to that corner to fight and kill! Look at you, you're almost forty, how can you still lose your identity like this, and you can't settle down like a child?"

In the final analysis, he is also a father, so hard-working, but he is also the same as all parents in the world. On the other hand, Li Zhaoyu didn't accept this at all, only clasped his hands into fists, and replied: "It's okay, father, if you directly set up your son as the prince, won't there be nothing?"

As soon as he heard this, Li Xuanli's face couldn't help but sink, and he said coldly: "How many times have I said it, this 'prince' and even the position of 'son of heaven' will be yours sooner or later! It's just that the belligerent character you have shown since you were a child makes your father not at all at ease! I thought that as you grow older, your personality will become less impetuous, but there is a tendency to become more and more intense!

To tell you the truth, among all the princes, your mind, thoughts, and other aspects are deep in my heart, but if you don't dispel some thoughts for a day, I won't dare to pass on the throne to you for a day!"

Li Zhaoyu sneered and retorted: "According to my father's intentions, are you still worried about the fact that your sons want to absorb the Nine Sages and the Western Witches? Yes, I used to want to take them under the command of the Hezhen Kingdom, including now! Grandpa was fully capable of ruling the Nine Saints Kingdom and the Western Witch Kingdom, why did he give up later?!

Father, do you see that now those two countries are eyeing the country of Hezhen in the dark, including the army of corpse monsters, not only do not lend a helping hand to us, but also send troops with the country of Zhen to protect them! Aren't you afraid that when the time comes, we will defeat the corpse monsters, and our vitality will be greatly damaged, and they will come to fight back?"

"Hmph!" Li Xuanli snorted coldly, put the tea bowl on the table, and said in a deep voice: "How can you not penetrate the will and long-term vision of the Emperor Taishang? You need to understand a truth: When a person's rights reach the zenith, the more uncontrollable the pressure and inflated desires he faces!

At that time, the first emperor had almost defeated the Nine Holy Kingdoms and Xiwu and other countries, reaching the point of being a vassal of all countries. But in the end, he still left their respective territories, because the first emperor understood that even if he got the whole world, he would not be able to win the hearts of the people. Over time, the common people will gradually become resentful, which is extremely detrimental to the long-term plans of the country......"

At this point, Li Zhaoyu gritted his teeth, but he didn't say anything more, and he didn't look at Li Xuanli's eyes. Instead, he picked up the dry bread on the table, got up and walked to the edge of the pavilion railing, crumpled the bread in his hand into crumbs, and threw it into the pool.

After a while, the aroma of the crumbs attracted schools of fish, which competed for food. Li Zhaoyu stared at the fish in the pond in a daze, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, I only heard him mutter: "These fish can stay in this small pond in this bay, not because they have food to come, so they obediently 'bow down to their subordinates'." But why don't they want to cross this shackle and conquer a wider world! Zifei fish, how can they know what they are thinking, and when they seize the opportunity to turn over, no matter how big the river is, it will not be enough for them to swim!"

Then he turned to Li Xuanli and arched his hand, and said: "Father, the son still has something to do, so I will go first! Please say good health to the queen mother for the son and daughter...... After speaking, he turned around, regardless of the latter's hand to stay, and left on his own......

Li Xuanli looked at Li Zhaoyu's back in a daze, and after a while, he sighed and reluctantly withdrew his hand. He knew that the eldest prince had always been disobedient, stubborn, and ambitious. If you were born in troubled times, this temper may be able to achieve great things, but now even the existing society is not stable, if you don't control a little temperament, the future will be passed on to him, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

At this time, Li Xuanli's heart was in turmoil, and many things had been superimposed recently, which faintly overwhelmed him. Then he took a deep breath, picked up the tea bowl and took another sip. At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a person coming over, so he beckoned to him and said, "Leader of the Ram, you are here, I just have something to discuss with you!"

The ram hurriedly walked to the pavilion, knelt down on one knee towards the former, hugged his fists and said: "Shengshang, Weichen can't find you, I didn't expect that there would be such a Yaxing today, and you came to the back garden to enjoy the flowers?"

Li Xuanli waved his hand, motioned to get up, beckoned the latter to sit down, and said, "The Ram Governor doesn't need to be polite, I'm also bored, you came to drink tea and talk with me." ”

The ram heir didn't say much more, he moved over the stool and sat down, and asked casually: "Holy Lord, Weichen just saw the eldest prince walking away in a hurry, and his face was not very good. You guys~ Aren't you making trouble again?"

The former waved his hand helplessly, signaling that he didn't need to mention it again, but picked up the topic and asked, "Hong Bang should have arrived in Shuangzi at this time, right?"

"Well, the river that I crossed two days ago is estimated to be there this morning to noon. ”

Li Xuanli nodded, and asked again, "How many soldiers did Jinsha Divine Gu bring?"

"If you go back to the Holy Lord, the Jinsha Zhen City Lord and the Shuangfeng Country Lord have merged more than 10,000 troops, and they are all good hands among the masters! Weichen thinks that this time we have gathered so many people, then Chai Jiuzheng is estimated to be unable to escape!"

Li Xuanli stroked the tea bowl and said lightly: "Well, that Chai Jiuzheng chose to forcibly seize Shuangzi Capital at this time, arousing public indignation, and I also think that he can't escape this catastrophe." But everything has to be thought about in many ways, since he dares to provoke trouble at this time, he must have something to rely on to be so fearless.

When Hong Bang was dispatched, I reminded him that this trip and Zhenguo sent troops to help, and the right should be to build momentum for Liang Mingdi and Shuangzi. In case the situation changes, immediately withdraw all his forces to avoid unnecessary losses!"

Hearing this, the ram heir couldn't help grinning, stroked his palms and sighed: "The Holy Lord is really clever! In this way, if Chai Jiuzheng sees that there are many powerful people on this side, he will definitely be defeated without a fight, and obediently give up Shuangzi Capital, and you will also have a good reputation with Zhenguo and the Holy Lord; even if something happens, you have already greeted you in advance, let's immediately show that our attitude is neutral, first, others will not say anything, and second, we can retreat with our whole body!

Hearing his praise, Li Xuanli couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand and pushed a bowl of tea in front of the former, and said: "Okay, Ram Leader, over the years, you have not only become more and more numb, but you have even grown up in the ability to slip and shoot horses!"

While the two were talking and laughing, they had already forgotten the unhappiness that had just happened. It's just that what they can't imagine is that the ending of Shuangzidu is not what they thought, and bigger changes are about to follow~ But this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

In this way, Li Xuanli and the Ram Hei discussed and analyzed the current situation while drinking tea. Obviously, the former has a lot of trust in the latter, and whenever he has any guesses and thoughts in his heart, he will talk to him. Back and forth, the two were talking and laughing, and they dispelled or solved many doubts in their hearts.

While talking, the ram heir seemed to suddenly remember something, so he arched his hand and asked: "Holy Lord, please forgive Weichen for saying too much about something! Now the situation on the front line is quite stable, and there seems to be no major event within the alliance except for the change in Shuangzidu. Why did you suddenly transfer a large number of troops at this time?"

As soon as he heard this, Li Xuanli couldn't help but "chuckle" in his heart, he looked at the former's eyes seriously, and asked word by word: "Troop transfer?

When the ram saw the latter's expression, his face froze. He looked at Li Xuanli blankly, and suddenly, an extremely bad feeling hit his heart, so he replied hesitantly: "Saint ~ Saint, Commander Nahua has been dispatching all the garrisons of Divine Arm City since yesterday night. Wei Chen happened to be there to carry out the handover task of the front-line defenders, and when he heard about this, he specially asked Commander Hua. He said~ It was ordered by you to temporarily transfer the army away for a period of time, and he didn't tell me where he was going. He also warmly asked Weichen to stay for one night, saying that he wanted to invite us to drink......!

As soon as he said this, seeing that Li Xuanli's face became more and more strange, even he instantly felt that something was wrong, so he cautiously asked again: "Holy Lord, is it possible~ You haven't issued an edict?!"

On the other hand, he did not answer the ram's words, but suddenly asked, "Where is the prime minister now?"

"If you return to the saint, in a few days, it will be the day when the eldest young master of Hong Bang will marry. The Prime Minister has prepared a wedding gift and will personally congratulate him...... Now he's in Anhua City!" In the end, the ram heir also suddenly came to his senses, jumped up violently, looked into Li Xuanli's eyes, and whispered in disbelief: "It's bad! Yesterday, Weichen should have found out that something was wrong and stopped Hua Jun!"

Li Xuanli also slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and sneered: "Hmph! I don't blame you for this, and it's also a shame that you didn't notice anything abnormal, otherwise your life will be in jeopardy! Now let's talk about all this, it's useless, ram heir, quickly help me prepare horses and manpower, and we will send it to Shenjian City immediately! If we go late, I'm afraid even the country will change hands!"

"Yes!!"
