The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 43 The emperor is just a loner

Old Li Tou is very happy today.

The ministers in the court were chasing after me and asking questions.

He looked like he had never seen the world.

Old Li Tou had an enigmatic tone and told them not to worry.

Everyone agreed that when the autumn harvest comes, all the courtiers will go and see it with their own eyes.

When he arrived at Wangyou Tavern, the wrinkles on Old Li's face were all visible.

Today, he made a fierce display in front of all the courtiers.

Boy Zhao, I came to your place for dinner again today. Li Shimin shouted into the tavern while he was still on the street.

Li Shimin feels very happy.

Not only can I have a good meal here at Zhao Chen from time to time.

If there is a chance, he can also take away some of Zhao Chen's things to open the eyes of those courtiers who take pleasure in antagonizing him every day.

Not to mention how comfortable it is on days like this.

Zhao Chen was basking in the sun in the yard and frowned when he heard Li Shimin's voice.

I wonder if Old Li Tou has nothing to do on weekdays?

Why do you keep coming to your own pub?

Although Old Li Tou gave him a lot of things last time, he still couldn't withstand his coming day after day.

And this old Li Tou always wants to bring some useful information back from his own mouth.

Really shameless.

Zhao Chen was just thinking when he saw the light in front of him suddenly dim and he opened his eyes to take a look.

Then he saw Lao Li leaning over and looking at him, showing two rows of teeth, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were bunched together.

Boy Zhao, I called you just now, why didn't you respond? Old Li Tou asked with a smile.

I'm in a bad mood. Zhao Chen glanced at Li Shimin and said lightly.

What's wrong, who bullied you? Tell so-and-so, and so-and-so will teach him a lesson for you. Li Shimin patted his chest with a proud look on his face.

He was in front of all the ministers today. He had earned a lot of face and was in a very good mood.

Why are you here again? Uncle Fu went out to do some errands today. The tavern is closed. You should go back.

Zhao Chen waved his hand, signaling Li Shimin not to block him from basking in the sun.

Seeing that Zhao Chen seemed impatient, Li Shimin smiled awkwardly.

However, he has been here so many times and has long been accustomed to Zhao Chen's temper. He didn't think twice and mentioned the gift in his hand.

I didn't come here empty-handed this time. Look, the pastries here are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Your aunt asked me to bring it over for you to try. Li Shimin said with a smile.

Queen Changsun had something to do in the harem today, so she didn't come over.

She just asked Li Shimin to bring some pastries that she usually likes to eat.

My aunt is still kind. Unlike you, Lao Litou, who comes here every day to eat and drink for free. You just treat me as a charity hall. Zhao Chen stood up and said slowly.

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched twice.

This kid, I gave him so many things not long ago, and now he actually said such things.

Although Li Shimin thought so in his heart, he did not dare to say it out loud.

Now Zhao Chen is his master.

Li Shimin still had many questions in his mind and asked Zhao Chen to teach him.

So isn't XX here today? Li Shimin said with a smile.

Li Shimin did not announce the reform of the imperial examination system to the ministers in the court that Zhao Chen had told him before.

He also needs a suitable opportunity.

I came here today for other things.

Seeing that Old Li Tou had brought a lot of things over and Old Li Tou's constant begging, Zhao Chen reluctantly made him a few side dishes.

Two cold dishes, two hot dishes, and a small jar of wine that Zhao Chen brewed himself.

Your kid's skills are really impressive. Li Shimin said happily as he picked up a piece of braised chicken.

That's it

Today's saints are not as comfortable as we are. Li Shimin sighed, with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Even in the palace, Li Shimin ate delicacies from the mountains and seas every day.

asked the cook, no matter what he cooks, he always cooks the same thing.

Over time, Li Shimin was about to vomit.

Where can Zhao Chen taste as good as here?

If he hadn't been able to come here every day, Li Shimin would have wished to live here.

Of course, Zhao Chen must agree.

Old Li Tou, what you said is not wrong. Being an emperor is not as comfortable as us. Even the food is not as good as ours. Zhao Chen smiled and seemed to talk a little more.

Can even those cooks in the palace have their own skills?

Li Shimin sat opposite Zhao Chen and was stunned for a while, then a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face.

Although the emperor's food may not be as good as ours, he still holds the power and is the common master of the world. Li Shimin smiled, but his words began to test.

When he came this time, he still wanted to know whether Zhao Chen had any intention of taking power.

It is not easy to be the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

If Zhao Chen didn't have this intention, even if it were forced on him, it would undoubtedly be a burden.

Even if Zhao Chen is not told of his suffering, it will also harm the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin must be cautious.

It's good to be the leader of the world, but it's just too cold at a high place. The emperor is just a solitary man! Zhao Chen shook his head, with even a trace of mockery on his face.

Li Shimin was stunned.

I thought that Zhao Chen, a young man, actually knew so much.

He, Li Shimin, feels like this now.

Everyone is afraid of him, respects him, and dare not tell the truth to him.

If not, how could he come here to talk to Zhao Chen so often?

Only here with Zhao Chen did Li Shimin truly feel that he was a human being.

Old Li Tou, think about it, as an emperor, how can he have any friends?

Relatives?

Family affairs are state affairs, and sons are ministers. During the change of power, how many people do not ignore family ties?

Old Li Tou, if you ask me, it's better to be a common man. If I'm happy, I'll do more. If I'm not happy, I'll rest early. Zhao Chen and Li Shimin said slowly.

This was Zhao Chen's idea, but it also reminded Old Li Tou.

Old Li Tou and Zhao Chen have known each other for some time.

From the various inquiries made by Old Li Tou these days, Zhao Chen also understood that the Old Li Tou in front of him was definitely not a simple person.

Being so concerned about political affairs must have some agenda.

Lao Litou is very ambitious!

Fortunately, Zhao Chen did not tell Li Shimin about the Xuanwu Gate, but Li Shimin himself had already recalled this sad scene.

At the moment, he forced out a smile.

Zhao Chen saw Old Li Tou's expression and thought that his words had touched Old Li Tou.

I wonder if this old Li Tou really wants to rebel and become the emperor, right?

Zhao Chen thought for a while before giving up the idea of ​​reporting Lao Li Tou.

Mrs. Li treated herself well. If she really reported Old Li, wouldn't she also be implicated?

Zhao Chen remained silent, pretending that what he just said had never been mentioned before, and kept his head buried in his food.

Boy Zhao, let me ask you, is the Xuanwu Sect incident nine years ago the fault of today's saints? Li Shimin twitched for a long time and asked a question that almost made Zhao Chen choke to death.

Zhao Chen stared at Li Shimin and whispered, You are crazy. How dare you say this?

How can one speak at will about the Xuanwu Gate incident?

If anyone listened to it, they would all be doomed.

But Li Shimin didn't think so. The Xuanwu Gate incident had always been a knot in his mind.

Since Zhao Chen is his son, Li Shimin also wants to hear what he thinks about this matter.

You talk to me, I can swear that no third party will know about this. Li Shimin said slowly.
