Li Yuanji whipped a few more times until his arm was a little sore, then he stopped and threw the long whip aside.

"Zhang Liang, this king has good news for you."

He sneered,

"Whether you confess or not, Your Majesty has already made up your mind to depose your master, Li Shimin."

"Now, Chang He, who is in charge of the forbidden army, and Liu Hongji, the governor of Jingzhao, have all increased their forces and locked the exits of Hongyi Palace!"

"Your good master, you'll be a waste person soon!"

"How's it going, are you happy?"

Zhang Liang reluctantly raised his eyes.

"Heh, hehe......"

His voice was extremely hoarse, and he whispered,

"That being the case, King Qi, you...... Why come and see my dead dog again? ”

"Just to whip me a few lashes?"

"Hehe......"

Li Yuanji's face sank.

"This king is giving you one last chance!"

He shouted,

"I'm not afraid to tell you that if Li Shimin is deposed, the situation will be turbulent, and many good dogs like you who are loyal to him will be panicked!"

"If you can stand up and identify Li Shimin Luoyang as recruiting troops and intending to rebel, then everything will be logical, the court division will be famous, and the turmoil will soon subside."

"Being able to stabilize the overall situation because of this is also a credit."

"How? As the saying goes, the tree has fallen and scattered, Li Shimin's tree has fallen, are you willing to perish with him and bury the whole family? ”

"Think about it!"

With that, he clasped his hands to his chest and looked at Zhang Liang.

This case is even intimidating and coaxing, anyone who comes will confess, right?

However.

Zhang Liang just grinned.

"Is that so?"

He sneered,

"How much I wish I could ...... If King Qin really rebelled, then I can identify him and save the lives of my whole family. ”

"It's a pity that King Qin didn't do that, and the so-called rebellion is even more nonsense...... I have received your kindness, Your Royal Highness King Qi, but I, Zhang Liang, am not the kind of person who sells his lord for glory. ”

"You say I'm a dog...... Indeed it is. But no matter whether the dog is good or bad, it will not bite the owner because of a piece of meat rewarded by others. ”

"You say, huh?"

Li Yuanji's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Stubborn!"

He raised his whip and smashed it on Zhang Liang's head, and scolded angrily,

"Then you just wait to become a dead dog! It's not just you, your whole family is going to be turned into a dead dog! ”

"Lao Tzu will personally kill them when the time comes!"

Leaving down two cruel words, Li Yuanji brushed his sleeves away angrily.

Zhang Liang, who was only covered in bruises, closed his eyes in pain.

"Your Highness......"

"Zhang Liang has done his best......"

……

Taiji Palace, Liangyi Palace.

"Son-in-law, see father."

Li Jiancheng respectfully bowed his head.

"Sit down, call you here in a hurry, haven't you eaten yet?"

Li Yuan pointed to the table of dishes in front of him and said with a light smile,

"Have lunch with me, our father and son haven't eaten together for a long time."

"Yes." Li Jiancheng got up and sat down.

The emperor's dinner, needless to say, is extremely luxurious, there are 12 cold dishes alone, and there are as many as 36 hot dishes!

That's enough for a whole family!

Of course, although there are many dishes and the appearance is acceptable, there are too many spices on them, especially on the meat dishes, which are almost full of spices, as if this thing can show the wealth of the royal family.

If there are too many spices, the original taste of the ingredients will naturally not be eaten.

Therefore, although the emperor does eat all the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, what is the taste...... I can't say that.

Smack.

Li Yuan sandwiched a piece of fish belly meat and sent it to Li Jiancheng's bowl.

"I remember that when you were a child, you loved to eat fish the most, and you always fought with Shimin and Yuanji to eat belly meat, and almost got into a fight several times."

Li Yuanle said,

"Now Shimin and Yuanji are gone, and they are all for you to enjoy alone."

"Come on, eat."

Li Jiancheng was stunned, nodded and said, "Thank you, Father." ”

He didn't hesitate, picked up the fish and put it in his mouth, chewing it carefully.

"How does it taste? How did you eat more than when you were a kid? Li Yuan said expectantly.

Li Jiancheng chewed twice again and praised:

"Delicious, a treasure among fish!"

He paused for a moment, then smiled again:

"But...... Or the taste is better when I was a child. At that time, although my father was the prince of the country, our family had a lot of expenses, and we couldn't say how rich we were, and we didn't have much time to eat meat. ”

"Once the second brother wanted to eat mutton, but my mother still made a lot of determination to slaughter the fat sheep in the family."

"At that time, although there was little food, and the cooking at home was not very good, but I fought with my younger brothers to grab it, and I just felt that it was the most delicious thing in the world!"

"That smell, Erchen will never forget it for the rest of his life."

When Li Yuan heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Yes, our days weren't as good as they are now, but every time I think about it, I feel the most comfortable time."

His expression was soft, and he said slowly,

"Your mother is here, you three brothers are fighting, how good is our family's life...... At that time, the taste of the New Year was also very full, and I liked to watch your mother handle the New Year's goods and fill the house with a full house. ”

"It's just that later, your mother left, and the world was in chaos, and our family was separated like this."

"The war of war, the rule of government, since then...... I don't seem to have had a good year with you. ”

"Alas!"

Babbling and chattering, a trace of crystal appeared in Li Yuan's eyes.

"Father, don't be sad, this is not to be a son, you are busy all day and neglect you."

Li Jiancheng hurriedly comforted,

"If it's peaceful today, my younger brothers are also in Chang'an. This year's Chinese New Year, our brothers have a total of total, and we must have a good year for my father! ”

Li Yuan held a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"I'm fine, it's just that when people are old, they can't help but recall the past, and it's easy to be sad, it's okay to ......"

He sandwiched a piece of fish belly meat again, handed it to Li Jiancheng's bowl, and urged,

"You eat, you eat."

Li Jiancheng nodded and continued to concentrate on eating fish.

"You just talked about the Chinese New Year, I really thought, if there is nothing to do this year, our family will have a good gathering, we will not be in the palace, but in the ancestral house where we lived more than ten years ago!"

Li Yuan looked at Li Jiancheng and said softly,

"Let me find out how I felt back then, and let you remember the bits and pieces of your childhood."

"It's just...... Alas! ”

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows.

"Father's proposal is good! Erchen agrees! ”

He answered,

"Just what?"

Li Yuan's eyes drooped slightly, and he sighed:

"It's just your second brother who ......"

"Have you heard about the general of the chariot cavalry in his house recruiting private soldiers in Luoyang?"

"This unfilial son, doing such a rebellious thing, is really angry"

"You are the crown prince, tell me what I should do with him!"
