Chapter 562

On a sunny day in autumn, the golden chrysanthemum is in full bloom.

In the imperial garden, there is a fragrance of flowers everywhere. The stream is bright and gurgling, taking away a few rootless duckweed.

Li Shimin was sitting on a chair beside the stream, leaning against his body, slightly squinting and lazily basking in the sun.

Between the nose is the fragrance of soil and the wet smell of aquatic plants, behind which are several bases of Taihu stones polished by running water.

It's quiet all around.

Not far in front of him, xiaoxizi was sitting on puzuo, seriously drawing. Li Shimin asked him to draw a picture of himself, and xiaoxizi agreed. At this time, she looked up at her father from time to time, then bowed her head and drew carefully.

After a long time, Li Shimin almost fell asleep. Xiaoxizi, with a smile, called: "father, I'll draw well!"

Li Shimin awoke, yawned and said with a smile, "please show it to my father."

Li Shimin took a look at the painting and laughed on the spot.

"You are so naughty, Xiaozi! How can you picture your father sleeping Li Shimin pointed to the painting and said with a smile, "you see, he has painted his father's belly so big, and there is a bird standing on his belly!"

"Hee hee, that little bird is xiaoxizi!" Xiaoxizi said with a smile, "is it a good painting. Father

"Good, good." Li Shimin nodded and laughed. He touched xiaoxizi's head and said, "as the saying goes, calligraphy and painting are like human beings. I can tell by the thickness of ink and the hardness and softness of lines that you are kind-hearted."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin sighed again, leisurely as if to say to himself: "xiaoyuzi, you may be one of my children. The smartest, the wisest, the most clever and the most gentle. "

Although she was young, she was always very clever and considerate. She murmured, "father, do you think of my fourth brother again?"

Li Shimin gave a slight smile, but his smile was a little bitter. He said, "it's more than your fourth brother? And your eldest brother in Lingnan, your second brother who died young. And your five brothers who left their golden bodies in Famen Temple... "

Xiaoxizi's mouth tooted and whispered sadly: "father, why did these brothers leave us so early Nine elder brother also don't come to see me in the palace, still have Gao Yang Huang elder sister, also left. I miss them so much

Li Shimin is speechless. His eyes were full of lingering love and sadness.

"Xiaoyuzi, I will marry you to an ordinary family in the future, OK?" Li Shimin said suddenly.

Xiaoxizi blinked his eyes and shook his head. "I don't want to get married."

Li Shimin laughed, "why? Girls, when they grow up, they want to get married. "

"Because when you get married, you have to live with your husband and leave your father." Xiaoxizi said seriously, "several huangjie are like this. When they got married, they would not come to the palace to accompany their father. Elder sister Gaoyang, she's still far away I don't want to get married, I want to accompany my father forever

Li Shimin's heart, as if by a red iron stick to tie, touched the heart buried for a long time that gentle place. All of a sudden, bitterness, moving, regret and sadness all poured up.

Almost red eyes, did not stop tears.

"Father, what's the matter with you..."

"Nothing..." Li Shimin tried to smile, touched xiaoxizi's head and said in a soft voice, "do you know, xiaoxizi. When you were a child, your elder sister Gaoyang was as clever and clever as you. She also said the same thing to her father and Emperor.... "

Xiaoxizi listened very carefully, first nodded, then shook his head decisively: "elder sister Gaoyang doesn't mean what she says. I won't, I'm sure I'll keep my word

"Silly girl!" Li Shimin laughs with a warm feeling that he hasn't seen for a long time.

Finally, he left the Imperial Hall temporarily and was able to return to the harem to have a rest. Here, Li Shimin is accompanied by xiaoxizi every day, old and young. It seems that only when Li Shimin is with xiaoxizi can he feel that he is a father, not the king of a country.

Not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who had to make a choice and give up between family affection and imperial career.

The imperial doctor fried the medicine and sent it. Xiaoxizi took the bowl and gave Li Shimin the medicine spoonful by spoonful. Like a child, he was blowing the medicine spoon and saying, "it's not bitter, father and Emperor. Drink it quickly, and you'll get better."!

Li Shimin was really "obedient" and drank the medicine with a smile.

When the palace people and eunuchs saw this scene, they all had warm smiles like sunshine, just like the autumn chrysanthemums blooming in the imperial garden.

Just after drinking the medicine, Li Shimin was gargling with tea when Li Ke came.

Xiaoxizi went up from a distance and said, "third brother, you're here!"

Li Ke laughs heartily, "Xiao Er, you are accompanying your father again! How is it? Did your father drink medicine today? "

"Yes, my father is very good!" Xiaozizhan Yan and smile, showing two small tiger teeth, said, "third brother, is the village head back?"Li Ke was stunned and laughed again. He squatted down to get ready to hold xiaoxizi.

But she suddenly stepped back two steps. "No!"

"What's the matter?" Li Shimin and Li Ke were stunned.

"The third brother is a boy. I'm a girl. I can't hold him!" Xiaoxizi is serious.

Li Shimin and Li Ke both burst into laughter and tears came out.

"What are you laughing at, third brother! If I ask you something, has the village head come back yet? " Xiaoxizi is still a little angry.

"Not yet." Li Ke said with a smile, "he There are still some things to do. When he's done, he'll come back to play with you. "

"I don't want him to play with me." Xiaoxizi's face showed a trace of displeasure, his mouth tooted and murmured, "I want him to have a look at the portrait I drew for him. Father Huang said that he would build a Lingyan Pavilion and put in the portraits of the meritorious officials of the Tang Dynasty. The portraits of other meritorious officials were all painted by my teacher (Yan Liben); only the village head's was painted by me! "

"So? What a wonderful girl Li Ke nodded gently and said with a smile, "when he comes back, I will let him come to you in the palace to see the portrait, OK?"

"OK, it's a deal!" Xiaoxizi was so happy.

"Good boy, my father wants to talk to your third brother about something. You should go to enjoy chrysanthemum with nanny first! Later, my father will teach you calligraphy. " Li Shimin said with a smile.

Xiaoxizi left obediently.

Li Ke met Li Shimin and said, "father, the main force of the Kansai army is 300000. It has been back to Korea for many days. The children's ministers have issued an imperial edict, and the British Duke Li Ji will return to Chang'an in a few days. My son would like to ask his father how to make up this 300000 army and who should be in charge? "

Li Shimin leaned lazily on the chair and said, "why don't you have the right person?"

"It's a matter of military and state affairs. I still want to ask my father what he means."

"Since I put you in charge of the country, I will leave all these matters to you." Li Shimin said, "what's wrong with the military affairs? Can't you handle them?"

Li Ke gave a wry smile and said, "I'll talk about my humble opinion there. Son Chen thought. The Kansai army is an excellent teacher of the Tang Dynasty. It is not only brave in fighting and strict in military discipline, but more importantly, it is a very united army. The children's minister thought that it was not suitable for this army to be broken up and reorganized after returning to Korea, so that it could be attributed to various military offices. When they are called back in wartime, the morale of the army will be weakened. Therefore, er Chen suggested that the former general of guanxi army should still be allowed to lead the army. Let them stay in Chang'an for a long time. As the main force of Gong Wei Chang'an. "

Li Shimin was noncommittal. Instead, he said, "if you think it's reasonable, you can do it well."

"Er Chen suggested that Si Ting Zhu of the Guanxi army should continue to be the general of the Guanxi army." Li Ke said, "earlier, my father ordered to form a new army of two guards, namely the left and right dragon and Wuwei. After the Pingfan battle, the left and right longwuwei died and returned to the government for various reasons. It has led to the loss of personnel and the confusion of the establishment, which is in name only. Therefore, er Chen suggested that Pang Fei and the Guanxi army "how similar is this to Hou Junji?"

"Well, I won't force you any more! But as my father said, if Datang is in trouble, you must come forward. Fight side by side with me

Thinking about this, Li Ke smiles bitterly. Qin mubai, Qin mubai, now I'm looking forward to seeing you, and I don't want to see you! ——If you and I don't see each other, it means that everything is well in Datang. If you and I meet, it means that Datang is in trouble!

"What to do?"

"Did you really answer that sentence It's better to miss each other than to meet each other? "
