   Chapter 535 Father and Son (1)

  Li Chang silently followed behind everyone as usual.

  The fourth prince deliberately slowed down his pace and went in parallel with Li Chang: "Fifth brother, there are still ten days before your wedding. When are you going to move into the Fifth Prince's Mansion?"

  Li Chang hesitated for a moment before saying, "Third brother asked me to move out tomorrow. However, I want to live for a few more days."

  The fourth prince was also a little speechless, and glanced at Li Chang: "Fifth brother, you and the third brother and your mother have a deep relationship. Everyone knows this."

   "However, you've grown up, you're about to get married, and you still live with the third brother. It's really not like that. Let's move out sooner!"

"Also, the third brother is recuperating in the mansion. You are fine, what's the point of being bored in the mansion of the third prince all day long. The royal father has assigned you an errand, you just go to the Ministry of Works as an errand. The dignified prince Wei, who dares to be It's impossible to make irresponsible remarks to your face!"

  Li Chang didn't say yes or shook his head, just kept his head down and said nothing.

  The Fourth Prince: "..."

  Yes, when he didn't say it.

  The fourth prince rolled his eyes secretly, and he didn't have much to say.

   There are five brothers with different temperaments. The eldest brother is arrogant, arrogant and narrow-minded, the second brother seems to be gentle but actually has a deep scheming, and the third brother is full of calculations and is not a good person. As for him, he is handsome, suave, lively and humorous.

   Only this fifth brother is mediocre and cowardly, with a weird temperament. Even a eloquent person like him felt a headache when he saw his fifth brother.

  The crowd quickly moved to the main hall to speak.

   Meng Yunluo led Sister Zhen back out.

   Sister Zhen has also grown taller, her eyes are still slender, and her appearance is barely fair. Every time Meng Yunluo saw her daughter, she couldn't help but sigh.

   Sister Zhen did not inherit the good looks of her father and mother at all. Even if she was born like a dead Concubine Su, but she looks like Li Chang, which is really annoying.

   "Mother," Sister Zhen raised her head eagerly: "When will you take me into the palace? I want to play with my cousin Xuan and my little aunt."

When Meng Yunluo heard Sister Xuan's name, the face of Sister Xuan's mother flashed in her mind, and she replied angrily: "What palace to enter! Your father is sick, and I have to raise a baby, where can I have the energy to enter the palace? ."

   Sister Zhen's mouth was flat and she cried aggrievedly: "I stay in the house every day, and I'm not allowed to go anywhere. I haven't been out to play for a long time..."

   The slightly shrill cry made Meng Yunluo upset and glared at Sister Zhen: "Cry, cry, cry all day long. Like someone who is not good, but like your grandmother."

   Sister Zhen cried even more vigorously after being beaten like this.

   Seeing that the situation was not good, the nurse on the side hurriedly stepped forward and took Sister Zhen away.

   Meng Yunluo returned to the yard with a dark face.

  The princes spent half a day in the mansion and left in the afternoon.

  Li Hao discussed with Chang Shi's staff in the study for a long time, until he returned to the courtyard in the evening.

   Meng Yunluo cheered up and greeted: "I'll let someone prepare meals."

  Li Hao took Meng Yunluo's hand and said warmly: "This is a trivial matter, just instruct the palace servants. You are pregnant, and you can raise your baby with peace of mind."

   During these days, Li Hao was in a gloomy mood, and he hadn't coaxed her in such a gentle and soft way for a long time. Meng Yunluo's nose was slightly sour and her eyes were slightly red: "Your Highness is fine, so I can feel at ease."

   Li Hao sighed and said in a low voice: "It's already like this, it's useless to be angry all day long. The prince came here today, and in two days, I'll go to the palace to see the emperor."

   Can't be so silent any longer.

   Meng Yunluo replied softly.

   Li Hao said again: "You are three months pregnant, and your fetus is stable, so it is time to enter the palace to greet the imperial grandmother and the queen mother."

   Meng Yunluo nodded reluctantly.

   There are many rumors, and it’s just a matter of hiding from people. When you really get in front of people, you have to face the ridicule and ridicule of everyone. Even if they didn't speak, and looked at her a few more times, it was enough for her to panic.

   It's just that Li Hao can't hide for a lifetime. She, the third prince concubine, also had to show her face in front of others.

  …

   After Li Jing entered the palace, he went to the Wenhua Hall.

   Eunuch Liu said with a smile on his face: "The emperor is approving the book, please go to the side hall and wait for a while."

  Li Jing's expression remained unchanged, and he responded with a smile. Went to the side hall and sat down, drank a cup of tea, and ate some snacks. After waiting for about half an hour, Eunuch Liu came over again: "Your Highness, please come over and speak."

  Li Jing smiled and thanked: "Thank you Eunuch Liu."

   Eunuch Liu nodded secretly in his heart.

  His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is first-class. Being left hanging in the side hall, he didn't show the slightest sign.

   Changed the eldest prince, and his face sank long ago.

   After Li Jing entered the main hall, he bowed his hands first: "My son has seen the father and emperor."

  Emperor Yongjia put down the imperial pen in his hand and said lightly, "Pingshen."

  Li Jingxieen got up.

   There were no courtiers in the hall, and all the servants who were serving also withdrew. In the spacious and magnificent main hall, there are only the father and son of the Tian family. One sitting and one standing.

  The atmosphere turned cold for no reason.

Li Jing took the initiative to open his mouth to break the silence: "Today, the minister went out of the palace to see the third brother. The third brother is in good health and his complexion has returned to normal. After two days, the third brother will enter the palace to greet him. The father and the emperor don't have to worry about the third brother. already."

  Emperor Yongjia hummed, his eyes swept across Li Jingjun's beautiful and warm face: "You brothers get along harmoniously, so I can rest assured."

   After a pause, he asked, "You have been in Zheng County for a few months, what knowledge do you have? Tell me about it."

Li Jing was well prepared, and said with Rong Rong: "My son went to Zheng County, and only then did he know the hardships of the people. In the previous dynasties, there were wars and levies every year. There were very few adult males in the people's families, and most of them were old and weak women and children. In natural disasters, people starve to death and freeze to death everywhere, which is unbearable to witness.”

   "My father fought in the Quartet, unified the Central Plains, and created a foundation for all generations. However, it is difficult to conquer the world, and it is even more difficult to govern the world well and let the people live a good life."

   "My son thinks that the imperial court should first deal with corrupt officials and clean up the Qing dynasty. The most important thing is to govern officials first."

  Emperor Yongjia had mixed feelings when he heard Li Jing's words.

   He was originally the head of the famous Li family, and he lived in a remote corner. When the world is in chaos, take advantage of the situation and establish a new dynasty. In terms of his ability to lead an army to fight, he is by no means weaker than the King of Xingyang and the Marquis of Guangping.

   It’s just that it’s hard to conquer the world right away, and it’s even harder to get rid of the horse to rule the world.

  The Great Wei Dynasty has been established for more than ten years. As the emperor, he really sat on the dragon chair and managed the government steadily, but it was only one or two years ago. The daily government affairs are like mountains and complicated. There are so many things, there are endless memorials to read, and endless political affairs to deal with. It's really not easy to be a virtuous son.

  We rely on warriors who are brave and not afraid of death. To govern the world, we need to rely on civil servants.

The trend of    the imperial court's emphasis on martial arts and less on literature has gradually been broken.

   Only Li Jing can be recognized and supported by all civil servants.

   Li Jing may not be his favorite son, but he is the most suitable prince.
