Talking about Li Shimin's taking over the wives of the eldest grandson Shunde and others, Guanyin said that Li Shimin "forgot to think about his father."

As a son-in-law, it is disrespectful to Li Yuan to say such things.

Li Shimin's face turned blank, as if he was really angry, "Auntie, don't mess around."

Guanyin made a grimace, and then looked directly at Li Shimin.

"You said you wouldn't be angry, so I dare to say that. If you are angry, I will not tell you more important things."

------

Li Shimin knew that what Guanyin said before was just an introduction, and then what she wanted to say to herself. He had no choice but to put down his stiff face and make a concession, "Tell me, why do you say that I forgot to think about my father?"

Guanyin saw Li Shimin compromise, so she told Li Shimin about Li Yuan pulling Zifu's hand and forcibly hugging Zifu.

Li Shimin was silent for a long time when he heard this, he didn't expect his father to do such a thing.

------

Seeing that Li Shimin didn't speak, Guanyin looked at him and asked, "How do you say this matter should be handled?"

Li Shimin's face was helpless, "What can I do? I can't go over and reprimand Grandpa and warn him not to do this again."

Guanyin looked at him and smiled, "Nothing can stump you when you fight for the world, do you have no idea when you encounter this?"

Li Shimin looked embarrassed, "The key is that I can't open my mouth in front of Grandpa about this matter."

------

Guanyin asked Li Shimin Zhengrong, "Now that I am in the official office, am I in charge of the inner courtyard?"

Li Shimin replied affirmatively, "Yes."

Guanyin's face became serious, and she looked like she was going to be the director of the house.

"If I were in charge of the inner court, I wouldn't want to let the inner court go into trouble. If your father really did that with Zifu and Qingyan, did you ever think that it would make people laugh?"

Li Shimin opened his mouth and had nothing to answer.

------

Guanyin looked at Li Shimin's eyes and asked him seriously,

"Do you think my father will take a concubine in the future? Will you stop it then? Can you stop it?"

It is commonplace for the lord of the family to have a few concubines, and if the father wants to take a concubine, how dare the son stop it?

In that era when patriarchal etiquette was the most important to filial piety, it was impossible for Li Shimin to do anything against Li Yuan's wishes, let alone force Li Yuan to do what he didn't want to do.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment and replied slowly, "As a son, of course I can't stop it, and I can't stop it."

------

Guanyin said in the long run, she asked Li Shimin, "Now that your father and son are preparing to fight for the world, if you really get the supreme position, will your father accept concubines?"

Li Shimin said, "How can there be an emperor who doesn't have concubines?"

Guanyin seemed to blame Li Shimin, and she reminded Li Shimin, "Whether it is a concubine or a concubine, it is indispensable sooner or later, so why not plan early? Do you have to let outsiders see the joke?"

------

Li Shimin also felt that Guanyin's words were reasonable, but he was still embarrassed, "I still feel that it is a little unspeakable to talk about this kind of thing with Grandpa."

Guanyin does not follow the Tao,

"Zifu and Qingyan have been with us for a few years, you can't let the two of them get hurt, right? They used to be close to my mother, and we are sorry for my mother."

Li Shimin frowned slightly, sat and did not speak.

Guanyin continued, "You'd better talk to your father about this in the next two days. Even if you don't say it, you can hint at it and let your father understand that you have no objection to him finding a woman to serve with him."

Li Shimin felt that he couldn't put off what Guanyin wanted to do, so he had to nod and agree, "I'll see Grandpa tomorrow and try to talk to him."

------

On the evening of the second day, after dinner, Li Shimin and Guanyin went to Li Yuan's room to say hello.

After greeting An, the three chatted for a while, Li Shimin said that he had something to say to Li Yuan, and Guanyin would understand, so he left in advance in the old house.

Li Yuan and Li Shimin, father and son, sat on the side of the kang and started a long talk.

Li Shimin poured a cup of buttermilk for Li Yuan, and also poured a cup for himself. Then, the two drank slowly.

Li Shimin looked at his father on the other side of the kang, although he was fifty years old, he was still in good spirits, heroic and healthy, and he thought in his heart, his father really needs a caring person to serve him, so that he can enjoy his old age in peace, and he can be regarded as filial piety.

------

Li Shimin went through the words in his heart before restarting the topic.

"What has Grandpa been busy with lately?"

Li Yuan held the bowl in his hand and smiled kindly, looking very relaxed.

He said slowly, "Although there is chaos today, the five counties of Shanxi are quite stable. Except for Wei Dao'er's occasional attack on Taiyuan, there are no other major bandits."

"I can temporarily relax with Pei Lian, Tang Jian and others to drink, hunt, and relax."

------

Li Shimin saw that his father was happy, so he followed Li Yuan and said,

"Grandpa should take a good break. Maybe he will raise troops soon, and when the time comes, Grandpa will want to gallop across the battlefield with a golden iron horse, and it will be difficult to have the leisurely days he has now."

Li Yuan told Li Shimin, "Don't be too hasty in advance to raise troops, now that the strength of the imperial court is still very strong, we should still focus on secretly expanding our strength."

------

Li Shimin didn't want Li Yuan to know that he was courting officials in Jinyang, and he wanted Li Yuan to know that he was preparing for the incident.

Just like a child showing off to his parents that he had a good score in the exam, Li Shimin asked Li Yuan with a proud face, "Grandpa, what do you guess I've been doing recently?"

Li Yuan had already heard about Li Shimin's recruitment of heroes, he looked at his son with admiration, and said approvingly,

"I heard that you have taken in a few fierce generals during this period of time, and these people will be of great use in the future."

Li Shimin recommended the eldest grandson Shunde, Liu Hongji and others to Li Yuan,

"Grandpa, you may not know, the eldest grandson Shunde's martial arts are no worse than mine now, Liu Hongji once defeated Uncle Cong, and that Duan Zhixuan, no one dares to provoke in the entire Jinyang City, and it is also a tyrant in Jinyang."

------

Li Yuan was very satisfied with these three people, and admonished,

"The eldest grandson Shunde and Liu Hongji are really rare talents, you have to fellowship with your hearts. I've also heard of that Duan Zhixuan, you have to restrain him well, and you can't let him cause trouble again."

Li Shimin nodded, "I will do what Grandpa tells me and make them available to Grandpa."

------

Speaking of Dou Cong, Li Yuan frowned, "I haven't seen Dou Cong for a while, is he still the same as before, depressed all day long?"

then complained, "I see that he is becoming more and more uncompetitive, and your aunt also kissed him for nothing back then."

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan with a smile and blamed his father with a smile,

"Grandpa, you can no longer look at people with old eyes, today's Uncle Cong is not what he was yesterday, he is now proud, raising his eyebrows."

Li Yuan asked strangely, "What good happened to him?"

------

Li Shimin told Li Yuan how he took over his eldest grandson Shunde, Liu Hongji, and Dou Cong's wife, but he concealed the matter of helping them buy a house, and only said that he would subsidize some of their living expenses.

After Li Yuan heard this, he praised Li Shimin, thinking that Li Shimin was very thoughtful and used his family to stabilize the hearts of these three people.

------

Li Shimin took the opportunity to ask Li Yuan,

"Grandpa, no matter how dedicated my wife and I are, there will be places that we can't take care of, do you also need a caring person to serve by your side?"

Li Yuan didn't speak immediately, he took a sip of the buttermilk, and after drinking, he didn't put down the bowl immediately, but took it in his hand and played with it gently.

He looked at Li Shimin thoughtfully and asked, "How long has your aunt been dead?"

Li Shimin removed the smile from his face, "It's been more than three years."

------

When Mrs. Dou was alive, Li Yuan and his wife were very affectionate, although Mrs. was a little strong, Li Yuan never complained, and obeyed her in everything.

Li Yuan inherited Tang Guogong at the age of seven, he has been delicate since he was a child, he is used to being pampered, he has never suffered hardships, his personality is a little casual, lazy, and he is not too persistent in doing things.

Mrs. Dou's mother is the eldest princess of Da Zhou, and after Yang Jian usurped Zhou's self-reliance, she had a feeling of ruin in her heart, and she was determined to take revenge since she was a child. She is super intelligent and decisive, and Li Yuan is a natural pair, learning from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and after a long time, Mrs. Dou has become the backbone that Li Yuan can't do without.

------

For Li Yuan, Mrs. Dou is the shackle that binds him, and it is also the reliance and attachment in his heart.

Things in the world are so wonderful, sometimes you feel that the things you want to let go of are often things that you can't let go.

If you think about it carefully, people are living in contradictions, and the two opposing concepts are always in the depths of people's hearts, in the midst of competition. Good and evil, beauty and ugliness, loyalty and treachery, have been pulling me to find a balance.

------

Thinking of Mrs. Dou, Li Yuan still felt a little sad in his heart, and he sighed, "When your aunt died, I was not by my side, and I still feel ashamed of him."

Li Shimin comforted his father, "You had military affairs at the time, and A-Niang didn't blame you."

"She also explained before she died, let us serve you well."

"If A-Niang knows that you still don't have someone around you to serve intimately, you will definitely not be at ease."

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin and said, "Let's wait and talk."

------

Like his father Li Yuan's concubine, Li Shimin, as a son, can't be forced.

Since talking to Li Yuan this time, Li Shimin has not mentioned it again.

Li Yuan didn't tell Li Shimin again what his plans were.

In the following days, Li Yuan and Li Shimin, father and son, were busy with their own things.

After Li Yuan was busy with his official duties, he feasted and drank with Pei Lian, Tang Jian's brothers, Wu Shi Tong, and Liu Shilong, and sometimes did not return to the official office for several days.

------

Li Shimin was busy recruiting talents, and he asked Liu Wenjing to ask Pei Lin several times to have an in-depth relationship with him.

Pei Lin is cunning and cunning, and every time he says that he is busy with official business and does not want to see Li Shimin.

Li Shimin asked Liu Wenjing, "What is Pei busy with?" I asked him out several times, but he didn't see him."

Liu Wenjing said with a smile, "The emperor doesn't come to the palace either, so what is he doing? It's just a feast and fun with Tang Gong every day."

------

Hearing that Pei Lin and his father Li Yuan were together all day, Li Shimin was a little embarrassed, and he didn't want to talk to Pei Lin in front of his father.

But Li Shimin wanted to make friends with Pei Lin in a hurry, and felt that he couldn't drag it out like this.

He asked Liu Wenjing, "What kind of person is Pei Lian? We have mastered his temperament so that we can prescribe the right medicine for our use."

Liu Wenjing is the person who knows Pei Lin best, and he also knows the reason why Pei Lin didn't see Li Shimin. But he didn't dare to tell Li Shimin clearly, for fear of causing Li Shimin to be angry.
