Chapter 125 Farewell (1)
"The emperor and his subjects are in harmony! Only when the emperor and his subjects are of one mind, the Tang Dynasty will be more prosperous. If the crown prince makes any mistakes in the future, you should advise him! So that he can correct his behavior." Li Er said to the ministers.
"Yes!" The ministers saluted and replied. "Crown
prince!" Li Er turned back to look at Li Chengqian, his smile getting even brighter. He saw the change of the crown prince, and now the crown prince is more and more in line with his wishes.
"Your son is here!" Li Chengqian saluted.
"As the crown prince, you should not act on your own and act recklessly. You should listen to the opinions of the ministers! When the ministers point out your mistakes, you should correct them immediately to avoid going astray." Now Li Er really would take the opportunity to teach his son whenever he had the chance, regardless of the occasion. It was really
like Father Yan was holding his head high.
Li Chengqian was feeling bitter and complaining in his heart, but he dared not show it, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Your Highness,
I will follow your instructions!"
"Okay! That's all for today. If you don't have anything to report, please leave!"
"Crown Prince and Prince Jin should also go back early to pack up and leave for Chang'an tomorrow morning. I really hope that you brothers can get along well." Li Er said.
The position of logistics manager has been taken up, and all preparations for the Eastern Expedition are progressing smoothly. Today's meeting ended here.
"Your Highness, I will remember your instructions! Your Highness, I'm leaving!" Li Chengqian and Li Zhi stood up, saluted, and left.
"I'll take my leave!" Zhangsun Wuji and other ministers also stood up, bowed and left!
The next day.
"Your Highness! His Majesty has ordered the chef to prepare breakfast. His Majesty asked Your Highness to go and have breakfast together. After breakfast, Your Highness will set off back to Chang'an."
Early in the morning, Li Chengqian and Li Zhi had just woken up when a eunuch came and conveyed Li Er's words to them.
"Thank you, eunuch. I will go after I get dressed."
"Then I'll take my leave now!"
The same conversation took place in two places.
Li Er decided to have breakfast with Li Chengqian and Li Zhi brothers, and then send them back to Chang'an.
After this farewell, Li Er didn't know when he would see them again. It was mainly Li Zhi. As for Li Chengqian, Li Er was not worried.
Li Er got up early in the morning before daybreak and asked people to prepare breakfast for his two sons so that they could eat and go back.
"Everyone! The Crown Prince and the Prince of Jin are here! They are waiting outside." Wang Yuan came to Li Er's side and said.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let them in! Don't waste time." Li Er said.
"Yes!" Wang Yuan took the order and left. He came to the outside of the hall and saluted to Li Chengqian and Li Zhi and said, "Crown Prince, Prince of Jin, everyone let the two princes in."
"Thank you, eunuchs!" Li Chengqian said, and walked in. Li Zhi followed behind Li Chengqian.
"Your son has seen the emperor, and I hope the emperor is well!" Li Chengqian and Li Zhi greeted Li Er.
"Okay! Give me a seat!" Li Er said.
"Thank you, father!" Li Chengqian and Li Zhi said, and walked to the left and right sides and sat down.
Li Er ordered Wang Yuan to bring up the prepared breakfast and divide it among Li Chengqian and his brother. The palace maid brought up the three portions of breakfast and placed them on the table in front of Li Er and his brothers, then withdrew.
After the father and his two sons had breakfast, Li Er personally escorted the two brothers out of Luoyang City.
"Father! Please go back! After accompanying you for thousands of miles, we must finally say goodbye! Your son is here to say goodbye to you, father!" Li Chengqian saluted to Li Er.
"Take care on your journey! "Li Er said.
Li Zhi's face was full of sorrow, his tears could not stop flowing out, his face was full of tears.
Li Er looked at his son who was crying, his heart was aching, he didn't want his child to leave, he wanted to keep him by his side.
But the child will grow up eventually, leave his parents, grow up alone, it is impossible for him to stay by his side all his life.
No matter how reluctant he was, he had to say goodbye with tears!
"Chi Nu! Assist Cheng Qian well, don't let your father down!"
"Cheng Qian, as the eldest brother, you must take good care of Zhi Nu for me during the time I'm away, don't let him get hungry or frozen, and call a doctor in time if he is sick."
Li Erlong had tears in his eyes, and he gave his two sons earnest instructions as a final farewell.
"Don't worry, father! "I will definitely take good care of Zhinu!" said Li Chengqian.
Oh my god! Zhinu is not a child, she is so old, can you stop worrying about her.
"That's good! That's good!" Li Er secretly wiped his tears, turned his back to his brothers, fearing that he would not be able to help but keep Li Zhi, waved his hand and said, "You go!" Li
Chengqian bowed to Li Er's back, stood up and stretched out his hand to pull Li Zhi.
But who would have thought that Li Zhi actually rushed to Li Er's side when Li Chengqian stretched out his hand, hugged Li Er's thigh and cried loudly.
Li Chengqian stood there in a daze, his whole body was in a mess.
Why can't I keep up with this kid's rhythm?
"Zhinu, what are you doing? Why don't you let me go? "Li Zhi's hug melted Li Er's heart!
"Father! I don't want to leave you. I am willing to stay with you all my life. Wherever you go, I will go."
"Father, don't chase me away. I just want to stay by your side and take care of you! Woo woo~" Li Zhi cried
loudly. Li Er had been pretending, but his defense almost collapsed when he heard Li Zhi cry. He agreed immediately, but finally forced himself to hold back.
"Child, don't make trouble! Have you forgotten what I told you?"
"What you said, father, I will remember in my heart and will never forget it! But I really can't bear to leave you, father. Please let me stay. I... "Li Zhi burst into tears as he spoke.
The father and son hugged each other and cried bitterly, heartbroken and torn.
Should I do something? Li Chengqian frowned and decided that he couldn't just let them cry there while he stood by and watched. It was really inappropriate.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian limped to the two of them. Li Chengqian
hugged them and burst into tears without saying a word. No matter whether there was a date or not, he would beat them up first.
Li Chengqian himself didn't know if it made sense to do this, he just felt right to cry!
"Father! I can't bear to leave you! I wish it was me, not you, who was on the Eastern Expedition. I feel sad when I think of you going on the expedition."
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, but you personally braved the arrows and stones and led the troops. As the crown prince, I wish I
could be at your front, armed and sharp, and fight on the battlefield!" "Father, you are fighting outside, please take care of yourself. Even if I die, I will look forward to your victory!" Li Chengqian said, tears streaming down his face, with real feelings!
It must be said that Li Chengqian's acting skills are also first-class. Even if he can't win the Best Actor Award, it won't be a problem for him to win an award.
As Li Chengqian spoke, he secretly observed Li Er's expression, fearing that Li Er would get excited and really let him replace Li Er in the Eastern Expedition.
