"The Queen Mother! Queen mother! ”

At the end of the court, Li Gan ran to the harem with an excited face and found the queen Ye.

"The emperor is here, it's just right to come today, Xiao Zhu, go and fetch the osmanthus cake sent by the imperial dining room to the prince today."

Ye Shi looked at Li Gan with a doting look on his face, and commanded.

"It's still the queen mother's son."

Li Qian said with a smile on his face.

After a while, Xiao Zhu took the osmanthus cake, and Li Gan slowly tasted it, but even so, Li Gan couldn't stop the smile on his face.

"Emperor, did anything good happen today? It's rare to see you so happy. ”

Ye asked with a puzzled expression.

When Li Qian heard this, he hurriedly put down the pastry in his hand, looked at Ye Shi and said, "Good thing!" A good thing, of course! Do you know the queen mother? At today's court meeting, my father handed over all the three armies of Zhongzhou to his cousin in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and now my cousin is the prince who commands the three armies and has heavy troops in hand! ”

Immediately, Li Qian informed the Ye family of what happened at the court meeting today. originally thought that the queen mother would be happy after hearing the news, but Li Qian didn't expect that after Ye heard his words, her face showed a look of worry.

"Queen Mother, what's wrong with you? My cousin has become the person who commands the three armies in Zhongzhou, which also means that the power of our line is getting stronger, and the position of the prince is also more solid, but why is the queen mother sad? ”

Li Gan was a little puzzled.

"Emperor, you are confused!"

After hearing Li Gan's words, Ye sighed with a look of hatred that iron does not become steel.

"Queen Mother, did the sons do something wrong?"

Li Qian wondered in his heart.

"Hey, Emperor, you really don't know your father's personality. Because of the incident in Zhongzhou, your father and emperor once went to Yanfu, hoping that your cousin would forget the pain of losing his son and be able to cheer up and return to Zhongzhou to defend against the enemy, but your cousin refused. Although your father didn't mind this matter on the surface, he was somewhat dissatisfied with your cousin in the bottom of his heart. ”

"Besides, this victory in the battle of Zhongzhou, in the final analysis, has nothing to do with your cousin, the queen mother received the news that the reason why the Western Chu army withdrew was because when they attacked Zhongzhou, the Southern Qi army took advantage of the weakness at this time and attacked the Southern Qi Tianyu Pass, which made the Western Chu army have to withdraw back to defense."

"And the reason why Nanqi was able to send troops at this time was because of the merits of the prince of Beiliang. Speaking of which, this battle was won, and he was the first son of Beiliang! This is not unclear to your father, but you deliberately strive for such credit to your cousin earlier, although your father does not say it, but in his heart he is afraid that he already has other opinions about you. ”

"You know, the last thing your father dislikes is for the royal family to collude with ministers with heavy troops, and you just did it......"

At this moment, Ye's heart was full of helplessness. Seeing that Li Gan in front of him still looked confused, Ye couldn't help but smile bitterly.

As the empress of the Dawu Dynasty and Li Deyi's pillow person, the Ye family knows Li Deyi's history too well.

If it weren't for the help of King Beiliang and his father, how could Li Deyi sit on this throne.

Li Deyi was originally a suspicious person, and today Li Gan helped the King of Guangyang to fight for merit in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and Li Deyi must have some speculations in his heart.

Originally, Li Deyi was jealous of the King of Guangyang's heavy army, and even secretly discussed with Wen Haoxuan and others about how to deal with the King of Guangyang.

"This ......"

Or after some contemplation, Li Gan finally understood the meaning of the queen mother's words, and the smile on Li Gan's face at this moment had long since dissipated, replaced by a touch of horror.

"Queen Mother, what should my sons do now?"

Li Qian asked aloud.

"What to do? Naturally, I went to your father to explain it clearly, but with the queen mother's understanding of your father, I am afraid it will not be easy for you to see your father now. ”

Ye said helplessly.

"Erchen will go now!"

Li Gan didn't dare to delay at all, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the Ye family and trotted all the way to the imperial study.

After the end of the morning dynasty on weekdays, Li Deyi would come to the imperial study to review the recitals submitted by today's hundred officials.

But when Li Gan hurriedly came to the imperial study, he did not see Li Deyi, but saw Li Tianqi outside the imperial study.

"Li Tianqi?"

Seeing that Li Tianqi was actually outside the imperial study, Li Gan's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Brother Crown Prince."

Li Gan's arrival seemed to be completely expected by Li Tianqi, especially looking at the anxious look on Li Gan's face, Li Tianqi couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"Why are you here?"

Li Qian asked in confusion.

"This is the imperial study, so naturally my father summoned me, but I don't know why the crown prince and brother are also here?"

Li Tianqi asked knowingly.

"Naturally, this prince is also here to see his father!"

As he spoke, Li Gan ignored Li Tianqi, and went straight to his side to step forward and enter the imperial study.

But as soon as Li Qian took two steps forward, the closed door of the imperial study slowly opened, and Li Si walked out of it.

"Father-in-law Li."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, the old slave is polite."

Li Si arched his hand towards the two of them.

"Gonggong Li, I don't know if my father can be in the imperial study?"

Li Qian hurriedly asked.

Li Si nodded and said, "Your Majesty has an order, let the second prince enter the study." ”

When Li Tianqi heard this, he immediately took two steps forward and swept past Li Gan's side, and when he walked to the door, Li Tianqi stopped, turned his head and glanced at Li Gan behind him, his eyes were full of playful and sadistic.

Seeing this, Li Gan clenched his teeth and clenched his fists, but Li Tianqi directly ignored it, turned around and walked slowly into the study.

"Father-in-law Li, I still hope that Father-in-law Li will inform his father and the emperor, and say that the prince wants to see him!"

Li Qian arched his hand towards Li Si.

Who knew that as soon as Li Qian finished speaking, Li Si sighed and said: "Prince, Your Majesty knows that the prince will come, Your Majesty asked the old slave to tell the prince and let the prince go back, Your Majesty doesn't want to see you." ”

When he came to the imperial study, Li Deyi informed Li Si that if the prince came, let him go back and forth from where, he didn't have the heart to see him.

It can be seen that everything has been said by Ye.

Although Li Deyi did not say anything about Li Gan's performance at the court meeting today, he was already extremely disappointed in his heart.

Looking at the closed door, Li Qian was unwilling, but now it was too late to regret anything.

His father avoided him, but announced that he had met Li Tianqi, which made Li Gan have a hint of foreboding in his heart.

Thinking of this, Li Gan didn't stay here for long, and after arching his hand towards Li Si, he immediately turned around and left this place.

Looking at Li Qianyuan's back, Li Si also shook his head helplessly......
