Then, Li Chang'an changed the subject, saying, "Then I wonder if our Changsheng wants to become even more powerful?"
Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng immediately perked up. He nodded vigorously, looking at Li Chang'an with anticipation and saying, "Of course I want to! I want to become the most powerful man!"
As he spoke, the little boy involuntarily straightened his chest, looking proud and smug.
"Excellent! As expected of our Crown Prince of Shengnan, the future ruler of a nation should have such a spirit!"
Li Chang'an's face was filled with undisguised admiration, and then he solemnly said, "If you want to become a strong person, you must be able to endure hardship and be willing to work hard for your pursuit. Chang Sheng, I hope that what you just said is not just empty talk. I hope that even if you cannot rival the world in the future, you will at least be a qualified emperor, capable of shouldering great responsibilities, allowing the people to live and work in peace, and maintaining peace in this prosperous era."
In Li Changsheng's memory, his elder sister was not a very eloquent person. This seemed to be the first time he had ever heard Li Chang'an say so much to him at once.
Although the content of these words was still somewhat profound and difficult for Li Changsheng to understand at the moment, for some reason, it still stirred up waves of emotion in the boy's heart.
A seed called responsibility was unknowingly planted deep in the innocent heart of this young boy.
In fact, Li Chang'an knew in his heart that even if he suddenly talked to Li Changsheng about these profound principles, Li Changsheng might not be able to understand them.
At the same time, she felt that some things should be introduced to the child from a young age, so that even if he doesn’t understand the profound meaning now, he will eventually understand it.
I don't know when it started, but I actually had such high expectations for this half-brother.
Thinking of this, Li Chang'an couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart, and then thought that if possible, he should just bury this matter underground for the rest of his life.
She didn't want to care about the grudges and disputes of the previous generation, and she was too lazy to even think about them.
In reality, there aren't that many loves and hates in this world; these are just the entanglements that people create for themselves.
Mediocre people trouble themselves.
After pondering for a long time, Li Chang'an finally came to his senses. He then put aside the lofty ideals he had just discussed and turned to Li Changsheng, saying, "Although your archery skills are already quite remarkable, there are still some shortcomings. I will now point them out to you one by one, so please listen carefully."
Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng immediately became serious, nodded solemnly, and listened attentively with a humble attitude.
Then, Li Chang'an drew another arrow from the quiver on his back, nocked it on the bowstring, and assumed the posture of preparing to release it.
She paused, then turned to Li Changsheng and said, "Your initial posture was fairly standard, but your body was too tense, which will consume more energy. Also, you need to pay attention to the coordination of your shoulders and neck. Archery is not just about the division of labor between the arms and fingers. Only when the power is evenly distributed will you not feel tired when firing in succession."
At this point, Li Chang'an paused slightly, seemingly giving Li Changsheng some time to process the information.
At this moment, Li Changsheng was indeed deep in thought. He blinked as he considered the key points Li Chang'an had just mentioned, and unconsciously mimicked drawing a bow. Then, as if suddenly enlightened, he looked at Li Chang'an and nodded.
Seeing this, Li Chang'an continued, "One more thing, when you shoot an arrow, don't focus on your palm and fingers. Use your arm to drive the whole movement, so that the arrow will be more powerful and have a longer range."
After saying that, Li Chang'an went forward and personally guided Li Changsheng to draw his bow and shoot an arrow again.
Although this arrow did not hit the bullseye, its range was farther than Li Changsheng's initial arrow, and its power was also significantly greater.
The immediate effect completely impressed Li Changsheng. He couldn't help but marvel inwardly, and then asked, "Royal sister, could you teach me how to improve my accuracy? I've never hit the bullseye before!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an simply smiled faintly, and then patiently advised, "You don't need to rush to improve your accuracy right now. You've already reached a very good level. However, nothing can be accomplished overnight. As long as you practice diligently, you'll eventually become proficient."
After hearing Li Chang'an's words, Li Changsheng nodded obediently, then said with a determined look, "Yes! I will definitely practice hard."
Although these were not words of lofty ambition, they still made Li Chang'an feel extremely gratified, and even his eyebrows and eyes became more gentle.
"Diligent study and hard work are necessary, but you must not be impatient for quick results."
Li Chang'an's tone was very gentle; at this moment, she truly looked like an older sister teaching her younger brother.
"I know that. Deputy General Sun mentioned it to me before, something about 'not being able to eat hot tofu in one's heart,' which probably means I shouldn't be too eager to achieve results."
As Li Changsheng spoke, he mimicked Deputy General Sun's gesture of stroking his chin thoughtfully.
"You little rascal! Alright, let's go back. Look at the ink stains on your sleeves..."
Li Chang'an always had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of doting affection.
The two returned to the villa together, where a lively atmosphere had already begun.
At that moment, Deputy General Sun came out of the woodshed carrying a large bundle of dry branches. As soon as he saw Li Chang'an and his sister, he quickly put down what he was carrying and then grinned at them, saying, "Hey, you're back so soon! How was the kid? He did pretty well, didn't he?"
"What do you mean 'okay'? You should say 'very good'!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an couldn't help but raise his chin slightly, his tone filled with pride.
"Yes, yes, that's amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
Deputy General Sun couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then, to his credit, he echoed the sentiment.
After their conversation, Li Changsheng, who was standing to the side, felt a little embarrassed, but he was secretly delighted.
Although Li Chang'an did not hold back in praising Li Changsheng, he still reminded him afterward not to become complacent because of his recent small achievements.
