Chapter 421 – Master and Grandson Talk
Just as Li Shimin’s family was comfortably in the pool, barbecuing and heckling, outside the Imperial City, Li Kuan’s residence.
Li Kuan was sitting alone in a pavilion in the back garden of his house to cool off.
”Wang family, in the wait, as long as in give me time, I Li Cheng Si must you Wang family uprooted, to you Wang family blood to sacrifice my this lineage of blood revenge” Li Cheng Si gloomy face, looking at the stars in the sky in you secretly swear.
However, after swearing, Li Cheng Si fell into a deep sense of self-blame and powerlessness.
The source of this self-blame and powerlessness is not other than the current son of heaven Li Shimin that.
He said that the change in the year was largely driven by the family, and that his mother and consort had both died in the assassination of the family, but he would not forget that his father and third uncle had both died at the hands of his second uncle.
So he is incomparably entangled at the moment, on one side is the savior who saved himself and gave himself a new life, and on the other side is his father’s murderer, he really doesn’t know how to face him.
Want to take revenge! He is facing a person who is so excellent in civil and military affairs, on which he can’t see a bit of hope, and even his child, is not something he can shake, but if he doesn’t take revenge, he is in vain as a son of man ah.
Just as Li Cheng Si’s heart was in a tangle, an old voice rang out “Cheng Si, you’re thinking about that again.”
”Grandpa, why are you here” Hearing this voice, Li Cheng Si turned his head and realized that it was his grandfather Li Yuan, he hurriedly saluted and asked, while also looking at Li Yuan with a puzzled face.
”Why, it’s not even possible for grandpa to come and see his grandson! Don’t worry your second uncle is not that petty” Li Yuan looked at his eldest son’s only heir with some heartache, and tried his best to say to him in a loving voice.
”He is not petty, otherwise I would be a pile of white bones right now” After hearing Li Yuan’s words, Li Cheng Si came with a bad expression on his face.
”Child, you are still harboring a grudge for what happened back then, aren’t you?” Li Yuan looked at Li Cheng Si like this, leisurely sighed and said to him!
”Grandfather, shouldn’t I hate? It was him and the family that destroyed everything for me, my parents, my siblings, all of them were lost on that day, so shouldn’t I hate him?” Li Cheng Si roared at Li Yuan in a somewhat frantic manner.
”It’s time to hate! Grandpa also hated him, because on that day, my two sons were also lost, but even though he hated him, grandpa endured it, do you know why?” Li Yuan finished and looked at Li Cheng Si and asked.
”This, grandson don’t know” Hearing Li Yuan’s words, Li Cheng Si looked at Li Yuan in disbelief, it was also at this moment that he realized that his grandfather, really old, not in his previous memories of that mighty man, now he is an old man who is regretting his son.
”Cheng Si, your second uncle even if there are a thousand not, he is also grandfather’s son, in the circumstances, grandfather has already lost two sons, grandfather can not lose the last son, and at that time, also determined to be your father and the third uncle is too much, if your father and the third uncle did not listen to the family of the provocation, with a plan to kill your third aunt, did not think of the second uncle of you to drive to extinction, perhaps, things will not be like this”. If your father and third uncle hadn’t listened to the family’s provocation and used a scheme to kill your third aunt, and hadn’t thought of killing your second uncle, perhaps things wouldn’t have been like this,” Li Yuan said, standing there sadly, with sorrow under his eyes.
”What, grandpa, are you saying it wrong, how could my father and third uncle kill my third aunt, that’s their own sister and sister who are one and the same” Li Chengshi heard Li Yuan’s, incredibly asked Li Yuan out loud, he didn’t believe that his father and third uncle would do that.
”I would also like to ask the oldest and third uncle why they did that, is the attraction of that dragon chair really that great, so great that they disregarded their own sisters for the sake of it” Li Yuan asked Li Cheng Si as he heard Li Cheng Si’s questioning, as he stood there he also questioned aloud.
This was the first time in all these years that he had lost his temper so much in this matter, even in the year when Li Shimin broke into the Taiji Hall, he had not lost his temper so much.
Looking at his grandfather so out of sorts, Li Cheng Si moved, how could he not have imagined that it would be like this, that treats their brothers very well third aunt, actually will be their father and third uncle designed to kill, the original at the beginning for the throne unscrupulously is their own father.
”Cheng Si you know your second uncle that year, rushed into the Taiji Palace first sentence said what well” and Li Yuan alone after calming down the mood, to the face of a lost soul Li Cheng Si asked.
”Grandfather, at that time he was not very happy, think you choose my father chose the wrong, in that loudly proclaimed their own achievements” Li Cheng Si heard Li Yuan’s question, thought not even think about the heart said out.
”Is that how you see your second uncle as well? It seems that your second uncle, in front of you juniors, has a really bad image! But you all thought wrong, the first thing your second uncle said when he came in was to ask grandpa if he knew about your third aunt,” Li Yuan said with a self-deprecating smile, and then spoke to Li Cheng Si with a sad face.
”What, how could this be, how could he be like this” Li Cheng Si asked to himself after listening to Li Yuan with wide eyes there, this was not the answer he wanted.
”Why, I really also want to know why, the world knows that your three aunts and your second uncle relationship is very good, do not know your father and your three aunts relationship is also very good, when still in Taiyuan, your father three aunts and two uncles, are never close to each other, the relationship is good to say, but from the rise of the army against the Sui Dynasty, everything has changed, have changed” Li Yuan said said Li Yuan said, can no longer stand unsteadily, holding the chair to sit down, the pair of somewhat cloudy eyes, looking towards the direction of Taiyuan, into the endless thoughts.
The side of Li Cheng Si at this moment also by today’s Li Yuan words, get some overwhelmed, he never thought that year’s events, because of this to happen.
”Grandpa, you just said that there is someone else who put forward the same opinion as me, who is that person” Waiting for a while, Li Cheng Si saw that his grandfather was not that sad anymore, he asked Li Yuan a question.
”He ah! You are familiar with him, he is Cheng Qian, why didn’t you expect it! At that time when he talked to grandpa, grandpa didn’t expect that he would talk about your second uncle like that” Li Yuan heard Li Cheng Si’s question and said to him with some relief.
”What, how could it be big brother, how could he think like that too!” After hearing Li Yuan say that this person was Li Cheng Qian, Li Cheng Si looked at Li Yuan with disbelief on his face, in his opinion, Li Shimin sitting on the throne would be the most favorable for him, the eldest son of the Li family, how could he have such an idea.
”Think it’s unbelievable right! Grandpa also had the same reaction as you at that time, both felt that Chengqian was not stupid, but later on when I thought about it, I also understood, Chengqian even more did not care about what throne, he just wanted to be a free prince, even in his heart, he valued his family more than anyone else” Li Yuan glanced at Li Cheng Si, thinking about the picture of chatting with Li Chengqian at that time, he couldn’t help but smile.
