Chapter 988: Li Er re-enters Chang'an

Li Er sat in his house listening to Wang Qin's recent incident in the court. The Persian affairs were completely left to Chu Suiliang. Li Chengqian was in charge of the court, and Gu Qing also began to enter the process of withdrawing from the court, focusing on building the things he was going to build.

"What is Gu Qing doing for road construction?" Li Er asked in confusion.

"It's not clear yet. Old Nu thinks it's related to Gu Qing's car." Wang Qin said to Li Er with a smile, "Your Majesty, the court has been much more stable recently."

Wang Qin is helping Li Chengqian speak. Wang Jin is now standing by Li Chengqian's side and can also take care of many things. Li Chengqian is still a little stiff in doing things. It is not so easy to be an emperor. There are so many things to think about and do than others. He sighed. Li Er sometimes feels that he is too burdened by Li Chengqian. Now that Li Chengqian is still young, he can make mistakes. It is not a big deal to suffer some losses at this age.

I hope Li Chengqian can learn from his lesson. If he gets older and he is already old in the future, how many mistakes can Li Chengqian be made? Li Er's high hopes for Li Chengqian from the bottom of his heart were based on Gu Qing's whetstone. Waiting for Li Chengqian to be undermined by others, he would rather hope it was Gu Qing.

At least Gu Qing is a person who distinguishes right from wrong, at least Gu Qing will still consider the people of the Dawn of the Tang Dynasty.

What would it be like if it were someone else? Li Er smiled bitterly. I don’t know how much Li Chengqian understood, “Wang Qin.”

"I'm here," Wang Qin whispered.

"I want to go to the palace to visit Chengqian." Li Er whispered.

"I'll go and prepare now." Wang Qin said.

"Be simple." Li Er instructed.

Wang Qin was quick to find a very ordinary carriage, and Li Junxian escorted it all the way to Chang'an.

Zhang Yugong, who was patrolling the village, knew it immediately. Li Er left the village in a carriage and headed towards Chang'an.

Sitting in the Ganlu Hall, watching Li Chengqian meeting with Persian envoys, received a report from Wang Jin that his father had arrived in Chang'an and was about to enter the palace to see him. He calmed down and said to the Persian envoys, "I'll be here today. Let's go and rest first."

"But..." The Persian affairs had not been finalized, and several Persian envoys were a little anxious.

"Go back and wait." Li Chengqian said again, "If you have anything to ask, just ask my secretary, Pei Xingjian."

Several Persian envoys then surrendered, and Li Chengqian was ready to go to Chengtianmen to welcome his father.

Outside Chengtian Gate, Li Chengqian saw his father coming with a cane and immediately saluted, "Father."

Li Er nodded and said nothing, walked straight into the palace, looking at everything here, "There is not much change in everything here."

"Yes, Erchen thinks it's better to be the same as before, and he doesn't want to change too much." Li Chengqian said.

"Do you have three sons?" Li Er asked.

"We are all in the palace now." Li Chengqian walked along with Li Er and said.

"Have you established the prince?" Li Er asked.

"Crown Prince..." Li Chengqian looked embarrassed.

"Why? I have been ascending the throne for two years, and I haven't established a prince yet?" Li Er's tone began to become stern.

Wang Qin and Wang Jin walked behind the father and son, and Li Chengqian had three sons. The oldest Li Xiang was already ten years old and had not yet established a prince.

"Father, my son is thinking about waiting until his eldest son Li Xiang becomes an adult before a crown prince." Li Chengqian said.

Li Er smiled coldly, "The crown prince of a country is the foundation. If one day you die, do you want to see the Tang Dynasty split? Do you think your brothers are all good people? I know what my children are thinking."

Li Chengqian understood Li Er's words and did not make a crown prince. If there was any change in the future, who would inherit it, there would be any changes. Moreover, his brothers all looked forward to Chang'an.

"I will make a decision on this matter for you." Li Er sat on the steps in front of Tai Chi Palace and spoke to Li Chengqian, "Make the eldest son Li Xiang the crown prince and take Gu Qing as his teacher. Choose one of your daughters, Gu Xiao, who will marry Gu Qing."

Hearing Li Er's words, Li Chengqian took three steps back, "Father, son minister?"

"You can't make the decision, I will do it for you!" Li Er suddenly shouted to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian bowed and stood there, not knowing how to answer the conversation.

Li Er is already old but his eyes are clear. He stares at Li Chengqian and says, "As an emperor, you have to look at your harem's face! Your throne is with you when you are the most swaying, and she is with you when you are in the most difficult time. What kind of things are there in your harem? Are you blind? Only your queen is your real wife. She gave birth to three sons for you. When you are almost crazy, she has been taking care of you and asking for help! I lowered my head and found Gu Qing. You have to hesitate to establish a prince!"

Speaking of this, Li Er coughed violently.

Li Chengqian stepped forward and immediately comforted him, "Father, my son knows that he is wrong."

"Chengqian, you are an emperor, and you are also a man! You have to remember." Li Er said.

"My son remember." Li Chengqian supported Li Er, who was trembling with anger, for fear that his father would fall down at this time.

"I'm back." Li Er said.

Li Chengqian watched Li Er leave, feeling mixed feelings. His queen had indeed not seen her for a long time. The Ministry of Rites arranged many concubines for him. These concubines used all their means to please him. Only Su Dan had been guarding his harem and taking care of his son. Even the vacant Lizheng Hall was cleaned up.

Li Er's few words woke him up, and Li Chengqian immediately wrote an order to make his eldest son Li Xiang the crown prince and to be Gu Qing as his teacher.

After the order was continued, Li Chengqian was still unwilling to give Gu Qing an official position, but just gave Gu Qing the identity of a teacher.

Gu family

Gu Qing had no idea that something happened in the palace at this moment, and something happened to the Gu family. The old donkey that had been with the Gu family was finally standing and unable to get up. Sun Simiao's old hand comforted the donkey that had lost its vitality. It was it that led the master and disciple to Chang'an.

"I have lived for so many years, and it's time to end it." Sun Simiao whispered.

"Master, don't be too sad, its life span has indeed come." Gu Qing also said.
