Chapter 566 Eternal Support
"Xiu Ning, you have to understand that there are many things that we cannot control ourselves."
This was the first time since Li Xiuning could understand the meaning of a sentence that he heard Li Jiancheng speak to him in such a serious tone. Therefore, there was an uncontrollable feeling deep in his eyes, as if something was about to be poured out.
However, in the end she still held back her tears.
"Ever since I was a child, everything I do or think about has always been easy for my eldest brother, without any difficulty. Therefore, my eldest brother feels that he is a genius, even though the only people he knows about me are my father and my mother. However, my eldest brother is a genius.
It is a self-evident fact.”
Regarding Li Jiancheng's self-praise, no one laughed at this moment, and no one refuted it, because he indeed deserves such a title.
"Growing up, my eldest brother didn't know the meaning of his coming to this world. He felt that life was so dull and aimless. However, deep down in his heart, there seemed to be a voice guiding him to go. It seemed that I was there.
My goal in life. Although I don’t know whether it is dangerous or safe there; whether it is an opportunity or a challenge. But my heart tells me that I must go there, otherwise my life will be meaningless!”
After finishing speaking, Li Jiancheng didn't say anything more. He held a cup of tea and sat quietly on the chair to sip it.
In the side hall, there was silence for a long time...
"Ha ha!"
Suddenly Li Yuan laughed loudly, stood up from the chair, walked to Li Jiancheng, put his right hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Cheng'er, since you think this is your goal in life, then let it go.
Just do it! Just remember that your father is your strongest support at all times!"
"Father!"
Li Jiancheng felt as if something was clogged in his throat, and his eyes felt itchy and uncomfortable, as if something was about to escape.
Thousands of words, but in the end they turn into the same actions.
Perhaps, Li Jiancheng's hand on Li Yuan's shoulder would make many people rebel. However, everyone in the side hall felt that this scene was so warm and harmonious.
"Brother, the people of the world support you!"
For the first time, Li Shimin did not address Li Jiancheng as "Brother Imperial" or "Prince" in front of the ministers. Moreover, the smile on his face also made people feel that it was not like his usual coping style.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Perhaps, under the influence of such an atmosphere, Pei Ji and others had forgotten the troubles and helplessness Li Jiancheng had brought to them. At this moment, they only had deep concern and blessings.
"Brother, it's Xiuning's fault, I shouldn't have stopped you..."
Li Xiuning seemed to have figured it out and no longer tried to dissuade Li Jiancheng.
"Xiu Ning, brother knows that you are doing it for my own good, so you don't have to say sorry. Besides, having a smart sister like Xiu Ning caring about me makes me feel very warm..."
"whee!"
A blush flashed across Li Xiuning's face, and she smiled sheepishly. The scene was so harmonious and warm. Of course, it would have been even more perfect without the words Li Xiuning added at the end.
"Brother, in this case, can you take me there?"
"Forehead…"
For a moment, Li Jiancheng was speechless and could only look around blankly. As for Li Xiuning's eyes filled with murderous intent, Li Jiancheng ignored it.
"Ahem!"
At the critical moment, it was Li Yuan, the firefighter, who appeared in time and the situation was under control.
"Okay, Xiuning, stop making trouble, let's get down to business."
Li Yuan showed an emperor-like demeanor (although he was an emperor himself). He stopped Li Xiuning's speech simply and decisively, without giving her a chance to refute, and got down to business directly.
"Cheng'er, because of the [War Temple] incident, you are unable to participate in the conquest of the Turks this time. Then Shimin, what do you think he should do?"
Hearing Li Yuan ask this, a hint of expectation flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he glanced at Li Jiancheng imperceptibly. Then, he returned to calmness again. It seemed that what Li Yuan asked had nothing to do with him.
Pei Ji and the others also had glints in their eyes.
It was a common thing for Li Yuan to ask Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng had an obvious attitude on how to arrange Li Shimin.
So, they hope to see something.
However, the ending must have disappointed them. Because they did not understand Li Jiancheng's thoughts, they were destined to not be able to see through Li Jiancheng.
"Shimin, what do you think, let me help my father handle things in Chang'an City. After all, the candidates for conquering the Turks and pacifying the north have been decided. If I change it now, I'm afraid it won't have a good impact."
Li Jiancheng's last words were obviously perfunctory. What else would Li Jiancheng be afraid of in his actions?
After listening to Li Jiancheng's words, a flash of disappointment flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, but it went away just as quickly as it came.
Pei Ji and others were filled with doubts, apparently unable to understand Li Jiancheng's arrangement.
Conquering the Turks and pacifying the north is a major event, and those who participate will definitely gain great merit. However, Li Jiancheng did not let Li Shimin participate. This is obviously to eliminate Li Shimin's influence and marginalize Li Shimin?
However, Li Jiancheng asked Li Shimin to help Li Yuan handle things in Chang'an, which was very unreasonable. After all, he should have been transferred to another town, right?
Therefore, Pei Ji and others were confused and could not understand at all.
Of course, if they knew Li Jiancheng's thoughts, they would probably understand Li Jiancheng's arrangement.
As for Li Xiuning, she knew that Li Jiancheng's arrangement was not to marginalize Li Jiancheng, but had a profound meaning. However, she knew there was a mystery in it, because she did not know what Li Jiancheng was thinking, and she also knew the purpose of Li Jiancheng's doing so. Anyway, Li Xiuning knew this purpose.
It can't be bad.
As the only insider present, Li Yuan was filled with thoughts.
Li Jiancheng asked Li Shimin to stay in Chang'an to help Li Yuan handle things. Isn't this a disguised way of letting Li Shimin get involved in political affairs so as to lay the foundation for his future accession to the throne?
Li Yuan was very happy not to see his children killing each other.
However, this was the result of one of his better sons giving up and hiding his figure. He didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.
Moreover, Li Jiancheng's arrangement also means one thing. That is, Li Jiancheng is leaving soon.
That's right, the Central Plains has been unified. Now, conquering the Turks and pacifying the north are bound to succeed. So what else can Li Tang worry about?
If he doesn't leave, what else is he waiting for?
