After the morning court session, Li Zexu immediately changed his clothes, avoided everyone, and hurried to the Temple of the Goddess.
I went through the window of the Goddess Temple and came directly to the study.
The study was empty.
Li Zexu did not stop. He opened the door of the study and walked out. When he reached the stairs, he went downstairs.
I had only walked halfway when I heard voices coming from downstairs.
Listening to the laughter and joyful chatter, Li Zexu walked even faster.
"Dad, Mom, Dabao, what are you talking about?" Li Zexu asked as soon as he arrived in the living room.
The three people who were chatting and laughing heard Li Zexu's voice and looked towards Li Zexu.
Li Chengze raised his eyebrows, "Erbao, you've already left the court? Don't you have any government affairs to attend to today? Why did you come here so quickly? This won't do! You are the king of a country, and there are too many things waiting for you to deal with. How can you be so irresponsible!"
Li Zexu's brows twitched wildly as he listened to Li Chengze's words.
What do you mean he is irresponsible?
It is obvious that they were born at the same time and are both eighteen years old. He gets up early and goes to court late every day to handle government affairs and review endless memorials. Now he is being urged by a group of ministers to participate in the selection. He lives in dire straits almost every day.
And what about Li Chengze?
He doesn't need to worry about these things at all, and he is going to college soon. College is so much fun!
Just thinking about it, Li Zexu was so envious that tears were about to flow.
"Dabao... No! Brother! You should be the emperor! You are the elder brother, the eldest son, and you should be the heir to the throne. I will give the throne to you and go to college for you! Okay?"
Before Li Chengze could say anything, Li Zexu hurriedly said, "What's so good about going to college? There are endless homework assignments to do every day, endless club activities to participate in, classes to attend, practice, and listening to teachers. You also have to get along well with classmates. How difficult is it!
Being the emperor is much simpler. He's the emperor! What the emperor says is what he means. His words are as good as gold, and his promises are as good as gold. No one in the entire Great Zhou dares to disobey him. What you say is what you do. There's no war now, and the country is prosperous. You only need a short time every day to deal with some things. The rest of the time, you can enjoy the peace and prosperity of the world. What do you think?"
Li Zexu looked at Li Chengze eagerly, hoping to hear the answer he expected from Li Chengze.
Li Chengze smiled slightly, "Since it's so good, of course I'll leave it to you! I'm the elder brother, and I should be the one to endure the hardships. The emperor's enjoyment is better left to you! Don't worry, as your elder brother, I'm definitely willing to carry the burden for you!"
Li Chengxu was so angry that his facial features were distorted. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Li Chengze, he could only look at Sang Jueqian and Li Junyan.
"Mom and Dad, you are still so young. If we go out together, people will say we are brothers and sisters! You are only in your forties now, which is the right age for adventure!
You don’t know how many people in the Great Zhou are thinking of you. If you go back to handle the affairs of state, everyone will surely be convinced. It will definitely be much better than me!
Wait another 20 or 30 years, and I will definitely come back to take over, okay?"
Seeing Li Chengxu's eager eyes, Sang Jueqian and Li Junyan looked at each other and laughed helplessly.
When I read history in the past, almost all the princes were scheming against each other and wanted to ascend the throne themselves.
In order to successfully ascend the throne, it was common for them to frame their brothers and kill each other.
But this situation never happened in their family.
Li Chengxu and Li Chengze, both have no interest in the throne.
The reason why Lee Seung-wook inherited the throne was because when he was in adolescence and was still very immature, he thought it would be very cool to unify the world and was willing to inherit the throne, so he was named the crown prince.
By the time he grew up and no longer wanted to be emperor, it was too late.
Over the years, it was he who learned how to govern a country, it was he who learned how to handle state affairs, and it was he who learned all the knowledge of Europe.
It’s completely too late to change people now!
Li Chengxu also understood this, so after being rejected by Li Chengze, he immediately turned his attention to Sang Jueqian and Li Junyan.
But Li Junyan had finally unloaded the burden and had been watching Li Chengxu for two years, making sure that he was fully capable of doing the job. He could finally travel around the world with Sang Jueqian. How could he possibly agree to Li Chengxu's proposal?
Li Junyan wore a gentle smile, patted Li Chengxu's shoulder gently, and said earnestly, "Erbao! Be a good emperor! If you really don't want to be the emperor, there are actually solutions."
Li Chengxu immediately became interested and asked eagerly, "Dad, tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
"The method is actually very simple! As long as you get married and give birth to an heir, I will raise him according to the method I have used for you. When he is sixteen years old and can inherit the throne, you will pass the position to him. Then you will keep an eye on him for two years. Once you are sure there are no problems, you can sit back and relax as the Supreme Emperor."
Li Chengxu, "......"
What a real dad!
No one who is not his biological father would make such a suggestion.
Even if he really agreed and implemented this suggestion, he would have to wait twenty years before he could retire.
Twenty years!
Li Chengxu wanted to cry but had no tears. He couldn't bear to think about how slowly the past twenty years had passed.
Li Junyan patted Li Chengxu's shoulder vigorously and said, "Okay, stop looking so sad. Think about the benefits. You can build the Great Zhou better and better, and you can realize your ambitions there. This is actually a good thing!"
Li Chengxu didn't think this was a bad thing, but sometimes, it's inevitable...
Sang Jueqian also smiled at this time and said, "Erbao, your father and I have decided to travel around the world and will not be at home anymore, but this window will remain at home. You two brothers, no matter what, must help each other!
You are twins, identical twins. There are actually not many people in this world who are exactly like you two, but only different.
Mom hopes that no matter what kind of life you two choose, you can help each other when you need help, okay?"
Li Chengxu and Li Chengze immediately nodded seriously, "Mom, don't worry! We will be fine. You and Dad have worked so hard for so many years. You can go wherever you want and have fun however you want. Don't worry about us, we will be fine at home!"
