Chapter 3146
Li Tao hastily turned his head and exhaled a puff of smoke, and waved his hands at First Young Master Liu.

"Returning to my uncle, the boy didn't encounter anything.

During this period of time, everything is as usual here, baby! "

First Young Master Liu frowned slightly, and asked directly: "Since that's the case, then how does your mother say that your boy goes to her place less often?"

Li Tao flicked the soot on his sleeve with his fingers, and sighed helplessly.

"Oh, Uncle, it's not that my son goes to my mother's place less often, but that every time my son goes to pay her respects to her old man, the old man is not in the house eight out of ten times."

"What do you mean? Where else can your mother go if she is not in the mansion?"

Li Tao took a puff of dry smoke silently, raised his head and gestured in the direction of the East Palace.

"Where else can I go, of course to my brother-in-law and sister Jingyao.

Ever since sister Jingyao gave birth to a pair of twins, the mother of the child rushed to the East Palace every now and then to help sister Jingyao take care of the child.

Every time my son and I take a few wives and the children below to pay her respects to her old man, my mother has already gone out to the East Palace first.

At that time, sister Jingyao was in confinement, and Hai'er's family couldn't be in her confinement, so they rushed directly to the East Palace, right? "

Liu Mingzhi followed the trend and looked in the direction of the East Palace, and nodded with a clear expression.

"That's true."

"Furthermore, now Hai'er, cousin Chengfeng, and cousin Yaoyao are on duty in the Hall of Ten Kings, and they have to come to the palace every day to process paperwork.

Especially near the end of the year, how busy the imperial court is every day, and how many documents from various states have to be reviewed and sent to the imperial court every day. Uncle, you should know better than your child, right?
Boy, I am already so busy dealing with those documents every day, how can I find time to go to my mother's old man's house to sit around! "

Li Tao's tone of explanation was full of helplessness.

Young Master Liu withdrew his gaze from looking towards the East Palace, and patted Li Tao's shoulder with a bit of regret.

"Stinky boy, I have worked hard for you these days."

Li Tao raised his hand to fan the smoke in front of him, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

"Hey, I can't help it. Who made me fall in love with you, a good uncle who is not very diligent in government affairs!"

"Hehehe, brat, you are getting more and more courageous, and you dare to make fun of uncle."

"Hey, Uncle, you'd better get angry, and kick the child out of the Hall of Ten Kings as soon as possible after you get angry.

After leaving the Hall of Ten Kings, the boy can have a good rest.

Uncle, you don't know how much the child misses now, the idle days in the past. "

As Li Tao spoke, his expression was solemn, and he looked at First Young Master Liu sincerely.

"Uncle."

"Huh? You said."

Li Tao took a puff of dry cigarette vigorously, his eyes both blamed himself and looked towards the direction of the imperial mausoleum outside the city.

"Uncle, to be honest, I knew that working hard in government affairs and handling paperwork is so hard and tiring.

Back then, no matter what the child said, he would not raise an army to rebel against his elder brother. "

Li Tao silently blinked his eyes a few times, and took a few mouthfuls of dry smoke in his hand.

"Oh, it's a pity, it's useless for the child to say anything now.

It's just that the child was blinded by Li Ling back then, lost his mind by power, and lost his eyes by that chair. "

When Liu Mingzhi heard Li Tao's tone full of self-blame, he was shocked immediately, and looked melancholy at the imperial tomb where Li Baiyu was buried outside the city.

"Son, do you regret it?"

Li Tao let out a long breath silently, and nodded silently.

"Yeah, I'm sorry.

However, it is too late to regret.

When the child has embarked on that road, there is no way to turn back.

If, hehehe, there is no if. "

Liu Mingzhi reached out to untie the wine bag from his waist, and slowly walked out of the palace corridor.

"Son, uncle is the same as you."

Li Tao heard Young Master Liu's words and looked at him suddenly.

"Huh? What does Uncle say... what do you mean?"

Liu Mingzhi raised his head and drank a few sips of wine, gently turned his body sideways, stretched out his hand to fiddle with his hair, and gestured to Li Tao who was following him.

Li Tao's expression was slightly startled, and he looked at Young Master Liu's hair suspiciously.

When he saw the white strands of hair in Young Master Liu's bun, his heart twitched violently.

In an instant, he already understood the intention of Liu Mingzhi's move.

Li Tao looked at Young Master Liu who had stood up straight and was drinking the wine one after another with a complicated expression, his eyes couldn't help being a little dazed.

"Uncle, what are you, when did you give birth to Huafa?"

"Hehehe, uncle doesn't know either.

Maybe it has been there a long time ago, maybe in the past few years.

Before I knew it, my hair had grown white.

All, whenever my uncle saw his white hair in the mirror, he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

As for the reason for regret, it is the same as what your kid said just now.

So tired, so tired. "

Liu Mingzhi casually wiped the mouth of the wine bag, and handed it to Li Tao with a light smile.

"Smelly boy, would you like some?"

Li Tao immediately knocked out the shredded tobacco in the tobacco pot in the snowdrift beside him, and took the wine bag into his hand.

"Uncle, I will not be polite to that child."

"Stinky boy, there are no outsiders now, why are you being polite to my uncle, drink quickly."

Li Tao gulped down the fine wine, wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth casually, and looked at First Young Master Liu with some hesitation.

"Uncle, I want to ask you a presumptuous question, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Liu Mingzhi seemed to have guessed what Li Tao wanted to ask himself, and nodded with a light smile.

"Hehehe, brat, ask, you can ask whatever you want."

"Uncle, if, what the child said is if.

If you could do it all over again, would you still raise your troops to rebel like you did back then? "

"meeting!"

Liu Mingzhi replied decisively without hesitation.

Hearing his uncle's straightforward answer, Li Tao couldn't help being stunned.

Li Tao reacted, took a few deep breaths, lifted the wine bag and drank again.

"Uncle, can you tell the child why?"

Liu Mingzhi took a deep breath, took the wine bag in Li Tao's hand and took a few sips with his head tilted back.

"Because your elder brother is unrighteous first, he never thought of leaving a way for my uncle and me to survive.

Son, do you know what will happen to your aunts if your uncle dies?

You know what happens to your cousins, cousins, their brothers and sisters?

Son, your eldest brother was too afraid of the power in my uncle's hands back then.

From the moment he sent someone to attack and kill my uncle in Fengyundu, he already wanted to put me to death.

Your brother, he is already going to put me to death.

Son, you say, what else can I do if you say uncle?
At the beginning, my uncle really didn't want to go that way, but my uncle had to go that way. "

Li Tao fell silent after listening to First Young Master Liu's explanation.

At this moment, his heart can be described as a mess.

For a while, I didn't know what to say at all.

After all, as his uncle Liu Mingzhi said.

Back then, it was his elder brother who was unrighteous first.

It is a fact that elder brother Li Ye sent people to attack and kill his uncle in Fengyundu.

No one can change the fact.

"Son, since my uncle and I came to the capital when I was 19 years old, I entered the temple under the will of your grandpa.

For so many years, my uncle has always been loyal to his duties, and has done his duty as a courtier.

Until your father succeeded to the throne, and my uncle and I became the most powerful ministers in the temple, my uncle never had two minds.

Of course, there is something I have to say about my uncle, and I will never deny it.

That is, uncle, I have more or less selfishness.

For example, my uncle and I have some selfishness when it comes to your aunt's aunt, your cousin Yue'er and their mother.

For another example, my uncle and I also have some selfish intentions regarding your Aunt Xiaoxi's affairs.

On this point, uncle, I have never denied it.

Naturally, she wouldn't deliberately cover up anything.

Otherwise, uncle and I would not have allowed your Aunt Xiaoxi to appear in front of your imperial grandmother during these years.

However, there is one thing I can guarantee uncle.

That is on the big issue of right and wrong, on the big things about the country and the country of the dragon, on the great things about the righteousness of the nation, the country and the country.

Uncle, I have never been vague.

What's more, your elder brother believes in me, and all the civil and military officials in the court don't believe me either!
After all, Dalong can't tolerate me!
Come, drink more. "

Li Tao nodded slightly, took the wine bag from First Young Master Liu's hand and drank freely.

"Uncle, if the things you said were from the past, the child might not understand.

Now, as the child grows older, he gradually understands it.

Human nature, human nature only.

If the child was in the position of uncle you, I think, I would make the same choice as uncle you. "

"Hehehe, brat, you just need to understand."

"Uncle, can I ask you another question?"

"Just ask."

"If my elder brother hadn't been unjust, would you have raised your troops to rebel?"

Liu Mingzhi bent down slightly and knocked out the ashes in the smoke pot on the snowdrift beside him, and looked at Li Tao sincerely.

"will not."

"Then after you help my elder brother unify the world, my elder brother asks you to hand over the power in your hand, what should you do?"

"Son, when the world was not yet unified, did your eldest brother still have little rights from uncle and me?
Auxiliary Minister, with the right to minister of the Ministry of War.

What kind of rights does your elder brother want? Didn't my uncle happily hand it over to him? "

Li Tao drank a few sips of wine, and said with a sigh: "I really can't refute my uncle's words like that."

"It can be said that, except for the royal seal that your father bestowed on my uncle back then, all the power in my uncle's hands, as long as your elder brother asks, uncle, I will agree to it.

Even when I handed over my rights back then, I also intentionally dragged the rest of the auxiliary ministers, making them, like my uncle, have to hand over their rights.

Uncle, I do this because I hope that your eldest brother can take charge of Chao Gang as soon as possible and put all the power in the hands of his new king.

It's a pity that your eldest brother doesn't understand uncle's painstaking efforts.

Uncle, I have done everything I should do.

However, your elder brother still doesn't understand Uncle's painstaking efforts.

In the end, he made an act that put me to death. "

Li Tao raised the wine bag in his hand, and drank the rest of the wine in one go.

"Son, do you know what you said to my uncle and me in the last lesson when your grandpa passed away?"

"My child would like to hear about it."

"Hey, your grandpa told uncle that it is not a big offense to be greedy for money.

But he warned his uncle again not to make some mistakes.

It's a pity that your grandfather only gave this sentence to your uncle.

But I forgot to teach Ye'er and you, you brothers are you.

Otherwise, maybe today's Dalong will be a different scene. "

Li Tao stuffed the empty wine bag into Young Master Liu's hand, leaned over and knocked out the ashes in the smoke pot with his feet.

"Heaven commits evil, it is still against the law, self-inflicted evil, you can't live!
Back then, if it wasn't for his old man, Grandpa Huang would always have looked down on Hai'er and eldest brother and us brothers.

Perhaps, there would be no situation today.

If the emperor's grandfather would treat the baby and the eldest brother as his grandchildren, he would teach the two of us how to be kings sooner rather than later.

Maybe Dalong will be like what you said just now, Uncle, and become a different situation.

Alas, it's too late to say anything now. "

Liu Mingzhi looked up at the palace gate in front of him, and silently hung the wine bag in his hand on his waist.

"Yeah, it's too late to say anything."

Li Tao also looked at the palace gate in front of him, adjusted the cloak on his body, and looked at First Young Master Liu with a faint smile.

"Uncle, before we knew it, our father and I came to the palace gate.

How about it, do you want to go to your child's house and sit down? "

Liu Mingzhi exhaled warm air into his palms, and happily put his hands inside his cuffs.

"Stinky boy, I'm taking a rest today.

You'd better go back and change your clothes first, and take your wives and children to sit with your mother.

After meeting your mother, tell her the reason why you haven't been to her during this period of time.

Save your mother from worrying about you. "

"Oh, baby, I understand.

Even if you don't tell my uncle, the boy plans to go back and take a few ladies and children to the mother and the aunt to sit on the quilt. "

"In that case, uncle will stop nagging."

"We see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"We have met His Royal Highness King Zhao, thousands of years old."

"You're welcome."

"My colleagues are exempt."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Thank you, King Zhao Qiansui."

Li Tao adjusted the python robe on his body, smiled lightly and gave a big gift to First Young Master Liu.

"Uncle, the child will go back first."

"Go back, your mother loves steamed stuffed buns, she saw them on the street, don't forget to buy some for her and take them there."

"Hey, the child knows."

"It's freezing cold, go back early."

"Baby obeys, baby will leave first."

Li Tao got on his horse, lightly waved the whip in his hand, and drove the horse slowly towards the long street.

Young Master Liu watched Li Tao's figure blend into the crowd on the long street, tightened his heavy fox fur cloak, and walked silently towards the main street outside the palace gate.

"We send you off to His Majesty, long live long live."

"Third brother."
