Chapter 371: The Ambivalence of Being a Father

Li Shimin got up a little late, he still lived in Li Ke's master bedroom with Concubine Yang and Empress Changsun, cough, the bed was big enough, and there was no problem at all to sleep several people, and there was a small compartment bedroom in the master bedroom, but it was prepared for the maid.

After Li Shimin got up, he found that Li Tai was coming, "How is it?" I've heard that you're doing pretty well, and some ministers say you're pretty steady, and it looks like your eldest brother and I are right. Li Shimin praised it.

"No, no, no, dad, I can't, I think these ministers must give you face, after all, I am the prince of the prison country elected by you, if I don't do well, it's not a loss of your face, I think I'm far from doing well." Li Tai's head shook like a rattle.

Li Shimin was a little speechless, didn't he really want to be the emperor before? Backed off so quickly?

But then again...... Li Shimin's eyes looked at Li Ke again, you bastard, you are really underwhelmed, look at you, a good throne, so that you don't want to be one of them, you really led everyone crookedly, all of them are like you who are so unprofessional?

Lao Tzu still wants to quickly train a successor, I will be the dashing emperor for a few years, just like that, how can I be the emperor?

"Don't be presumptuous, a good job is good, don't worry, Aya sees it in his eyes." Li Shimin still encouraged, "Don't study like your third brother, the mud can't support the wall." ”

Li Tai almost cried, Dad, is there a possibility, I want to be the same as the third brother now.

Regarding Lao Li's slander, Li Kecai was too lazy to refute it, it's good that the mud can't support the wall, why refute this, wouldn't it be unpleasant to refute it too much.

"Erlang, don't forget that you live and eat other people's now, do you say that about your son?" Empress Eldest Sun couldn't stand it anymore, and couldn't help but speak for Li Ke.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with what I said, it's not right for a son to be filial to Lao Tzu. Li Shimin is right.

"Aye, I can't agree with this." Li Tai felt that he had to refute it, because he still wanted to be the same as the third brother, if his father said so, then if he played with the third brother in the future, wouldn't he be beaten? No, you can't let Dad belittle the third brother.

"Aya, as a prince, the third brother really doesn't want to care about these things, think about it, there are so many homeless people in Chang'an City, so many beggars, and those retired disabled soldiers, the third brother can ignore them."

"Anyway, the third brother will make money again, how good is it for the third brother to use all this money for his own enjoyment, but now the third brother is using all this money on these people, government soldiers, and beggars, which prince can do it? Anyway, Erchen can't do it. ”

"Don't talk about the ministers, there are so many ministers in the world, how many of the gate valve families can do it? Therefore, the third brother has done a lot of things, he has always put all the people in the world in his heart, and the third brother has always been an example for his sons! Li Tai said seriously, and he deliberately accentuated his tone on the word role model.

"Do you think your third brother didn't enjoy it? Look at this Zhuangzi, there are a few people who build better than him, and my palace is not so good. Li Shimin was a little speechless, glared at Li Taidao, are you so weak? Can't you just hold on a little longer? You see, in less than a month, you have changed so much?

It really made Lao Tzu Bai Gao look at you, and let your third brother guess it again.

"Aya, what you said is not right, you can't say that, you don't want to see what the third brother enjoys, but you can't see what the third brother has done, if there are only people in the world who live in such a house, hundreds of thousands of people can live a good life, and it can affect the lives of millions of people, Erchen thinks that it would be good to have more such people." Li Tai said quickly.

Yo? Li Shimin glanced at Li Tai a little highly, yes, have you learned to speak? It seems that this period of government affairs has not been handled in vain.

But now Li Shimin is actually a little depressed in his heart, Li Tai's transformation has come according to Li Ke's vision, which means that the dispute between the princes of the Tang Dynasty should not exist, and the contradiction between this position will naturally not exist in the future, and it is naturally impossible for a human tragedy to happen between their brothers like he Li Shimin did back then.

So Li Shimin is actually very happy, but in addition to being happy, there are also some depressions, his sons are too good, but they don't want to be excellent, and they are also a little depressed, okay, Lao Tzu is studious, diligent and diligent, and works hard for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

It's good for you all to be the emperor, you all want to be a free prince, right? None of them are in vain!

So Li Shimin has been a little depressed these days, of course, this little depression is a father's contradictory mood towards his children, whether it is the emperor or ordinary people's families, as a father always has such a contradictory mood.

Just like those fathers who watch their beloved daughters get married, they hope that their daughters can marry a good family, have a happy marriage, have a husband who loves her, and have lovely children in the future. But I was worried that after my daughter got married, her husband would treat her badly, her in-laws would treat her badly, and she was afraid that her daughter would suffer, so she was a little princess at home and became a family, and she began to save money in order to live a good life.

As a father, there is always a conflict.

Li Shimin is almost this contradictory mentality.

Of course, it won't change his overall mind after all, it's just a little tangled for a while.

"Okay, okay, you were all bought by Li Ke, okay, let's go to the sacrificial stove today." Li Shimin waved his hand, too lazy to discuss this issue, at least for now, Li Shimin is actually very satisfied in his heart, because everything is developing in a good direction! So his mood is really good during this time.

Li Shimin led Li Chengqian, Li Ke and others began to sacrifice the stove, preparing to celebrate the young age, far away in Xizhou, Li Yan and others had just completed the task of sacrificing the stove with Li Daozong.

On today's festival, the captains of each village began to carry out, and these captains replaced His Royal Highness in the name of "sacrificial stove", and gave a "task that is not a task" to the herdsmen of these villages, let them clean up, and then told these herdsmen that His Royal Highness is also sacrificing stoves in Chang'an, hoping that these herdsmen can live a better and happier life next year, which is His Royal Highness's expectation for them.

This activity is not mandatory, but when these captains have an informal task and are also in the name of His Highness, they will unconsciously participate in the sacrifice, and after a few years, the sacrifice stove will also become one of the customs of these herdsmen, and they will automatically understand what the sacrifice stove is and understand the god of the stove.

These are all learned by Li Yan and His Royal Highness, and His Highness calls this cultural identity.

Because when these herdsmen have a common culture with the people of Datang, they will be more integrated and identify with their own identity! Therefore, Li Yan will not give up any kind of process of popularizing "culture".
