Chapter 427
After two years away, Li Shimin's eyes were reddened when he saw his eldest son, whom he had placed high hopes on since he was a child, but disappointed him again and again.

"Get up quickly, what are you doing with such a grand ceremony?" Li Shimin asked the two to get up.

"Thank you, Father."

As soon as Li Chengqian and Su Shi stood up, they saw Li Shimin's red eyes, and they couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"Brother and sister-in-law, please sit down."

Seeing the heavy atmosphere in the hall, Li Lizhi hastily said.

Hearing Li Lizhi's words, Li Shimin quickly wiped his wet eye sockets, smiled and looked at his long-lost son, "Yes, sit down quickly, what are you standing there for?"

"Yes."

Seeing that Li Shimin and Li Chengqian had a lot to say, Chen Qiao dragged Li Lizhi out of the Tai Chi Hall.

"Let Your Majesty and King Huai have a good talk, we are inside, they will inevitably have some things they can't say."

Looking at Li Lizhi's puzzled look at him, Chen Qiao said so.

That's right, when Li Lizhi heard what Chen Qiao said, he felt it was very reasonable, so he went to the Imperial Garden with Chen Qiao to relax.

Although the imperial garden in winter is a bit chilly, the green pines and cypresses plus some unmelted snow make it look interesting.

After about half an hour, Chen Qiao saw the eunuch walking towards the two of them.

"General Chen, princess." The eunuch smiled and blessed the two of them.

"Father and elder brother finished talking?" Li Lizhi asked.

The eunuch nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty sent this old slave here to invite the general and the princess back."

Hearing this, Li Lizhi frowned, and the two of them went back to Tai Chi Hall together with the eunuch.

Walking into the Taiji Hall, Li Lizhi saw the red corners of Li Shimin and Li Chengqian's eyes at a glance, and the Su family sitting next to Li Chengqian was even tearful.However, Li Lizhi didn't ask any more questions, but just pretended to be nonchalant and talked about other things.

"I saw elder brother's youngest son yesterday. The pink carved jade is very cute. Why didn't you bring it to the palace today?" Li Li asked.

Hearing Li Lizhi mention his son, Li Chengqian laughed and said, "The child is still too young. I was afraid that he would cry when he entered the palace, so I didn't bring it."

Li Shimin on the side was not happy when he heard this. Perhaps because of his age, Li Shimin was always extra tolerant towards his grandchildren. Hearing Li Chengqian talk about his grandson like this, he naturally wanted to defend it.

"There is no child who doesn't cry and make trouble. You all cried and made trouble when you were young, and I didn't do anything to you?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian with a beard and said, "When you were one or two years old, you often cried. Crying in the middle of the night and refusing to go to sleep, your mother hugged you and coaxed you all night, and I would sometimes watch over you all night, so why do you find children's crying annoying now?"

Hearing what Li Shimin said, Li Chengqian was also irrefutable, so he could only smile helplessly, "Okay, when I enter the palace again, I will bring brother Jue to the emperor to see."

"Have you become famous?" Li Shimin asked.

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "The name I just decided on before returning to Beijing is Li Jue and Weiqing."

"Okay," Li Shimin smiled, and was quite satisfied with the name.

"I heard that some things have happened in Beijing recently, most of them are aimed at you. What happened?"

As he said that, Li Chengqian turned his head and looked at Chen Qiao. Although he only came back for a short day, the rumors in the streets and alleys of central Beijing had already spread into his Prince Huai's mansion like the wind, and last night there was even a ghost Unknowingly, a letter was placed outside his bedroom door.

"And this thing." Li Chengqian took out the letter in his arms and put it on the table. "The person who wrote the letter said that you are at odds with you, and that he wants to join me in a great cause."

Chen Qiao frowned. He really didn't expect that Li Chengqian would be targeted by those people just after returning to Beijing.

He got up and went to Li Chengqian's desk to pick up the letter. The envelope was very common and there was no word on it. At a glance, "They really do everything they can."

After reading it, Chen Qiao handed the letter to Li Shimin.

"What happened?" Li Chengqian asked again.

Now that the matter had already affected Li Chengqian, Chen Qiao had no choice but to highlight to Li Chengqian what had happened in the past few months, from the beginning of rumors in Chang'an City to the current three families of Zhao, Xu, Xu, and Sun.

"So, they are under the banner of wanting to rebel against Tang Dynasty and Sui Dynasty?" Li Chengqian asked with a frown.

Chen Qiao shrugged with a smile, "It seems so, but there are no descendants of the Yang family in the world today, I am afraid that the most orthodox one is King Wu, but they have never looked for King Wu. , they are just using Yang Sui's guise to satisfy their ulterior desires."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian also nodded, feeling that what Chen Qiao said was very reasonable.

"You just said that your subordinate Wang Chong already has contact with them, but Wang Chong is not very old after all, and he might show his feet in front of an old fox like Zhao Renyi." Li Chengqian said worriedly.

Chen Qiao smiled, "Your Highness, don't worry. Although Wang Chong is young, he is very good at bluffing people. From the fact that he was able to get the poison from Zhao Renyi, it can be seen that Zhao Renyi treats him very well." trust."

"But is there anything I need to do?" Li Chengqian asked.

Chen Qiao shook his head, "The most important thing for Your Highness right now is to spend this year safely in Beijing. If you are needed in the future, I will not be polite." After saying that, Chen Qiao smiled at Li Chengqian .

"Okay, if you need it in the future, just tell me." Li Chengqian said.

While the two were talking, Li Shimin had already read the short letter.

"To actually try to win over Chengqian to work with them, I'm really beyond my control." Li Shimin said angrily.

"They are used to being the kind of people who judge a gentleman with a villain's heart. There is nothing surprising. After all, as a person who must take revenge, he feels that the whole world is like them. People who must take revenge." Chen Qiao said .

Li Chengqian glanced at Li Shimin and Chen Qiao with a solemn expression, "I will never do anything that will harm my father or the great Tang Dynasty. Please rest assured my father."

Li Shimin nodded, "Of course I know your temper, right now I'm just angry with these villains for doing everything they can."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, if I have even the slightest doubt about you, I will never tell you so much," Chen Qiao also said: "You know what kind of person I am."

Seeing that the three of them were talking about serious business, Li Lizhi and Su Shi left the Tai Chi Hall together.

"Speaking of which, sister-in-law hasn't seen the ninth brother's concubine yet, right?"

The two walked side by side under the corridor, Li Lizhi turned her head and asked.

Su smiled and shook her head, "I haven't seen it before, but I just heard His Highness mentioning it occasionally, saying that the current Crown Princess has a more rigid temperament, and His Highness is always afraid that the ninth brother will suffer."

Li Lizhi smiled, "It's like the temperament of the elder brother. Before that, he always worried about us, for fear that we would be wronged after we got married."

"In the past two years, His Highness's temperament has changed a lot. Looking at it now, it is really a good thing for His Highness not to be a prince."

Seeing that Su's eyes were fluctuating again, Li Lizhi stopped and held her hand and said, "Brother was burdened too much before, but now he has relieved his burden, and sister-in-law can feel at ease."

"In fact, I still have to thank General Chen for speaking for His Highness in front of His Majesty, otherwise..." As he spoke, Su sighed and shook his head, "Your Highness has done too many wrong things before. It will also end up in the same fate as the previous King of Shu."

"Sister-in-law don't need to think too much, father is very good to elder brother, even if there is no Qiaolang, father would not treat elder brother like that." Li Lizhi comforted Su family softly.
