Great Tang Southern Emperor

"That's true, my father is wise, and my son really intends to do so." Li Zhen continued to admit his cowardice.

"Oh why?"

"My son made a big mistake this time. If he is caught by the emperor, he will definitely be severely punished. I won't say what the specific mistakes are. You must know the father. In my heart, the father has already arrested the son. When the time comes, I will admit how my father wants to punish my ministers." Li Zhen knelt down with a bitter face, and said in her heart: "It's almost done, these words should be able to put him to death." Is your anger forced out?

however……

Li Zhen made a serious mistake in her estimation, because he actually heard Li Shimin's sigh...

Chapter 986

Chapter 344 Father-Son Conversation ([-] words)

"Hey~"

It was just a slight sigh, but it made Li Zhen's soul tremble - not because she was frightened, but because she was simply frightened.

Oh my god, when did Li Zhen see Li Shimin sigh?

In his impression, Li Shimin has always been a strong man with a strong and tenacious personality, like a proud little leopard, who has always been arrogant and rarely expresses his true emotions, let alone Showing such a weak look in front of others - the reason why I say it is rare and not at all is because Li Shimin will indeed show his true feelings at certain times, for example, when Li Daozong died, Li Shimin once sighed, and then Even the time when Li Yuan died, he knelt in front of Li Yuanling for a long time, and the time when Empress Changsun passed away was also silent for a long time... But such cases are very rare. Zhen has personally seen Li Shimin showing such a weak state only a few times, and the total is less than two hands.

But now that it's not a year or a festival, why did he suddenly sigh?

What is going on?

Li Zhen murmured in her heart—could this be his new routine?

It seems that we should be more careful next time, but we must not be fooled.

However, when Li Zhen looked up, she was even more surprised, because Li Shimin's eyeballs were actually red...

"Father, what is this?" His eyes were so red, which meant that Li Shimin had just cried. This...

It's just unbelievable...

Li Shimin actually cried...

Who the hell will believe it when they tell it?

If Li Shimin's sigh only surprised Li Zhen, then Li Zhen was really shocked by the way he shed tears.

From time travel to the present, Li Zhen has only seen Li Shimin shed tears once, and she still hasn’t shed them. Speaking of which, it was related to Li Zhen—that is, Li Zhen and Li Shimin expounded the truth more than ten years ago. When dreaming, Li Shimin was touched by Li Zhen, and the corners of his eyes got wet, and Li Zhen took the initiative to put sand into his eyes to hide it.

Now Li Shimin is actually crying...

He actually cried like this...

Even the tears flowed out...

No matter how Li Zhen looked at it, she found it unbelievable. Could it be that the Li Shimin in front of him is a fake?

"What kind of eyes are you looking at? Why? Can't I shed tears? I am also a human being, and I also have emotions and desires, so what's the point of shedding tears?" As if seeing the horror in Li Zhen's heart, Li Shimin was a little embarrassed and angry, and said in a bad mood—— However, after saying this sentence, Li Shimin suddenly felt that his originally depressed mood became more relaxed. This is really too strange, and he didn't have this problem before.

Could it be that he has a slight tendency to be masochistic?

Li Shimin felt a little apprehensive...

"It's nothing, but my son didn't say anything." Li Zhen said with a smile: "Of course the father can cry, but it's better to be careful not to be seen by others. Fortunately, there are no outsiders in this study, otherwise if someone else If they saw it, they might think that my son-in-law bullied you."

"Spoof, are you still bullying me?" Li Shimin's mood improved.

"I just don't know if my son can know...why is my father crying? If it is possible, my father will say it out. On the one hand, I will have a way to vent. On the other hand, if there is something embarrassing, Maybe my son can help you." Li Zhen slowly guided Li Shimin's mood, Li Zhen already had some guesses about why Li Shi was crying, and if it was really as he guessed, then Li Shimin The relief released just now should be only temporary, and it will soon pass, and his mood will become bad again—rather than that, he might as well open his mouth and guide the real depression in his heart.

"What can you help?" Sure enough, just as Li Zhen guessed, when he talked about business, Li Shimin's mood changed again, only to hear him sigh again, and said with a little melancholy: "Hey~ I have been enthroned Since then, I have thought that I have rarely made mistakes, and the praise from the court and the people has gradually lost me, and I think that I should be considered a good emperor."

"There is no doubt about it. Father, you are indeed a good emperor." Li Zhen quickly echoed. This is not a bad word. The person in front of me is Li Shimin. The Huns who chased the Xiongnu from the north fled Mobei far away, and Li Shimin, who is as famous as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who dared not go south, if even he is not a good emperor, then looking at the history of China for 5000 years, there is no more People can be called a good emperor.

"Perhaps, I boast that I have done a good job in the position of emperor, but..." Li Shimin's tone paused, and then his tone suddenly became sad: "Maybe I did a good job in the position of emperor, but it's a pity that because of too much Pay attention to state affairs, but I have neglected your education... I have always disliked your fifth brother and sixth brother, and always thought they were too stupid, but if you think about it carefully, if I can spend more time with you, it will be much appreciated I personally educated you, how did the fifth and sixth sons become what they are today?"

"What's wrong with fifth brother and sixth brother? They've actually done a good job." Li Zhen defended Li You and Li Yin weakly: "Although they like to mess around, they never bully the common people. Fair things also like to fight for the injustices of the people... It's just that the two of them stood up for the people, so it was inevitable that they would offend those second generation ancestors, and their personalities were indeed a bit...bad...the elders of those who were bullied by them would inevitably be there. Father, you gossip in front of you, and father will inevitably have a bad impression of them... But to be honest, they actually have a very good reputation among the people, at least compared to their elder brothers, the two of them are much more famous He was even called the King of Heroes."

"Hmph, what kind of fame do they have?" Li Shimin snorted coldly: "I received a secret report the day before yesterday, saying that your fifth elder brother robbed the fiancée of a side branch of the Kong family in the fief, causing the Kong family to sue me. I guess the memorial should arrive today."

"Hey, what is this? It's just a family of traitors. If you rob it, just rob it. What's the big deal?" Li Zhen was quite disdainful of this matter. He is really pure and only disgusted (I won’t talk about the specific things they did, if you are interested, you can search it on Baidu, as long as the keyword is 'traitor family', the article is full of articles criticizing them...) , if Confucius could know what their descendants did, he wonders if he would thank the world in advance after the death of the palace.

"You can just say this in front of me. It's not good for outsiders to hear. After all, the Kong family is a real family with a thousand years old, and they are the descendants of Confucius. The prestige among the people is still very high."

"It's okay, anyway, it's already well known that my son hates Confucianism, and it's normal to even hate the Kong family who originated from Confucianism." Li Zhen didn't take this matter to heart at all.

"Forget it, let you go." Li Shimin just mentioned casually, and didn't pay attention to it. He also didn't pay attention to the mere Kong family.

"But you did a good job in this matter." Suddenly, Li Zhen was still thinking about Kong's affairs, and Li Shimin suddenly confused him with a word.

"Huh?" Li Zhen didn't react for a while, and after two or three seconds, she realized what Li Shimin was talking about, and quickly knelt down and said in horror: "Father, calm down, it's my son's mistake, and my son should not be with you in private." Brothers have reached a deal, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor, I will never dare to do it anymore... Father, please calm down, Father, please forgive me... Please forgive me, please forgive me..."

"Okay, stop acting, get up." Looking at the 'terrified' Li Zhen, Li Shimin was speechless: "Your acting skills are too clumsy, and you have no sincerity at all...I didn't mean to blame you, you just Didn't you listen carefully to what I said earlier?"

"That's great, I thought my father would be angry." Li Zhenyi got up from the ground gruntingly, the panic on his face had gone nowhere, replaced by a playful face— — But the back was indeed soaked, Li Shimin's words turned so suddenly, it really shocked him, until now his heart is beating non-stop.

"Hey, since I found out about your deal, I've thought a lot. After reviewing my life, I suddenly realized that I may be a good emperor, but not a good father..." Li Shimin became melancholy again: "I originally thought that as long as the Tang Dynasty is strong, everything can be sacrificed, including the love for you, but now I think about it carefully, even if the Tang Dynasty is strong, if I don't cultivate a qualified successor for the Tang Dynasty, even What's the use of Datang really being able to unify the whole world one day? The huge country will eventually be defeated in his hands."

"Uh, father..." Li Zhen glanced at Li Shimin resentfully, isn't she good enough?

"No, I'm not talking about you, Zhen'er, don't get me wrong." Li Shimin also reacted, and said a little embarrassed: "I'm just talking about what if, just giving an example."

"But I do owe you too much, especially your Zhen'er..."

"Me?" Li Zhen pointed at herself, her eyes full of doubts.

"It's you. I didn't notice it at the beginning, but when you think about what you have done these years, it is all for the sake of this country." Li Shimin sighed: "Although you are making money for yourself in name , but if someone else has the ability to make money like you, they will definitely live a life of extravagance, even if it is not as good as Shi Chong and Wang Kai. But what about you? Apart from eating Except for the most exquisite, other places are just ordinary, not extravagant at all, but put all their money into the construction of Datang..."

"Father, you have praised me, but my son is not that good." Li Zhen seemed a little embarrassed by Li Shimin's praise, how could he be as noble as Li Shimin said?Although what Li Shimin said is indeed true, the reason why he did this is actually a little selfish. At least the pursuit of the throne is his goal that he has never changed. Without this goal, he would not be so generous Woolen cloth.

"What's more, the son-in-law didn't make any credit. After all, didn't you get everything you did, the emperor? We can only say that each takes what he needs, and the credit is actually your father." Yes—if you hadn’t had such great courage to trade with my son, it’s impossible for me to come up with so many things, right? After all, my son’s rules are that words should not be passed on lightly..."

"That's why I feel that I owe you more." Li Shimin's eyes softened: "Zhen'er, you are dedicated to the country, and you exchange with us in this way, but we take it as normal, and we don't realize it at all. Your good intentions—until you donated the naval fleet you built with painstaking efforts to the country without hesitation, we elders just woke up, and we really regret it..."

"Eh..." Li Zhen was speechless, you can say whatever you want, as long as you are happy.

Li Shimin didn't look at Li Zhen again, and continued: "The second person I'm sorry for is Gao Ming..."

"Brother? This..." Li Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly realized that in Li Shimin's eyes, it should be true, because Li Chengqian lost the crown prince... well, it was a little too inexplicable.

It may be because the appearance of Li Zhen changed the history. Under the pressure of Li Zhen, Li Chengqian and Li Taishi at this time have not been in the same fire and water.Therefore, he was not rejected by Li Shimin, and he would not break his leg due to a drastic change in temperament.And because of Li Tai, Li Ke and others' enemies on the surface, as well as the existence of the hidden threat of Li Zhen, Li Chengqian's performance at this time is still very good (provided that Li Zhen cannot be involved, once something has something to do with Li Zhen relationship, Li Chengqian will definitely try his best to speak ill of Li Zhen), at least in the eyes of Li Shimin and Baiguan, it is still very good.

Although Li Chengqian was still hooked up with Yixin under the matchmaking of the old uncle's pimp Li Yuanchang, but Li Shimin hadn't found out yet, so Li Chengqian was actually a good boy and a qualified prince in Li Shimin's impression.

If this is still in the original history, Li Zhen is still the Li Zhen in history, and Li Chengqian will keep it like this, and he can really succeed in inheriting the throne if he is steady.
