Chang Anqing

Chapter 124 Deep Thought

When Li Sui accompanied Mrs. Chen after dinner and left, the sky was already full of red clouds and the sun was setting against the western mountains. With the soft curtain beating gently, Nian Nu had already put on a thick and soft fox fur cloak for Li Sui. It was getting colder outside, Li Sui turned to look at Chen Shi who got up and came to see him off, and persuaded him gently: "Aniang, go back and rest. I will come to see you again after Baoying and Erlang are married in a few days."

Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and nodded when she heard the words. At this moment, there was the sound of cautious footsteps. Li Suixun looked around and saw a woman dressed in plain clothes and looking kindly, holding a thickly wrapped child. Coming, at this moment, the woman suddenly saw her also froze, paused for a moment, and quietly hugged the child tighter, then saluted them respectfully and carefully.

"The eldest princess—"

In the silence at this moment, Li Sui had already guessed the identity of the person who came, and the next moment he heard the mother beside him couldn't help scolding him nervously: "It's such a cold day, why did you bring Erlang here, quickly bring him in."

Hearing Mrs. Chen's words, the woman quickly nodded in agreement, and said as she came forward: "Just after eating, the servants played with Mr. Erlang for a while. They wanted to coax him to sleep for a while, but they never thought about Mr. Erlang. Jun was fussy and refused to sleep, and the servants guessed that Erlang Jun must be thinking about you, the eldest princess, so he came here despite the cold, and hoped that the princess would forgive him."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen relaxed her originally frowning brows, and then looked at the child who had been hugged forward, raised her innocent and cute face, and shook her hands towards the child who was about to pounce on her. He said with a smile: "It turns out that Erlang misses his aunt. Come, come and hug my aunt."

While speaking, Mrs. Chen embraced the deep-blooded grandnephew in her arms, then pointed to Li Sui who was beside her and taught, "Look, Erlang, this is your aunt Aman—"

Hearing Chen's words, the tense body of the woman on the side relaxed a little imperceptibly. Li Sui saw the child in Chen's arms looking at her with eyes that were so clear and bright, like Standing on the upper floor of Huae Xianghui that night, I touched that glance.

Looking at the innocent child in front of him, Li Sui couldn't help but think that Auntie also conceived a boy for Emperor Yuan Cheng a few years ago, but unfortunately the child was stillborn before full term, even so, Emperor Yuan Cheng still made a tomb for the child , he was posthumously named Prince Chengen, and was buried in the imperial mausoleum built for him——Chao Mausoleum.

After so many years, if that child hadn't gone, he should be a nobleman who has inherited the favor of the heavenly family, learned the classics, righteousness and policy theory, and governed the country.

Thinking of this, Li Sui's brows were indifferent, but there was some inexplicable sadness, and an easy-going smile floated on his lips. He never thought that Qi Wang Li Ji in front of him was not afraid at all, but looked at her curiously. The next moment, he stretched out his hand and wanted to get into her arms.

"Look, it really is a blood relationship, it can't be broken—"

Seeing this harmonious and warm scene, although Chen was smiling, his eyes were faintly red. Seeing that this was not revealed, Li Sui took Li Ji with both hands, smiled and said to the nephew in front of him: "When you come today It just happened to bring the gadgets that you children like—”

While talking, Li Sui said to Chen Shi who was smiling and saying nothing: "I see that the children in Chang'an are refusing to leave the stuff at the street vendor. They all like it so much that they didn't choose it. I bought a Guluer, and Erlang knew I was coming, so he ordered someone to make a bow and arrow that a child can use."

After all, Niannu ordered someone to bring up a small box with a smile, and when he opened it, it was full of little tricks that children like, and there was also a beautiful bow with simple carvings, but it was exquisite and shiny.

Li Sui smiled and sent Li Ji back to the woman's hand, then took out the exquisitely crafted children's carved bow, lightly jumped with his hand, and there was a deep and deep sound, and the next moment Li Sui handed over the carved bow I raised it in front of Li Ji, and sure enough, the child was very interested in these things, and immediately stretched out his hand to take it.

When Li Sui handed it to Li Ji, the little man in front of him excitedly squeezed the carving bow into his hand. Although he smiled happily, he could only make a small and hoarse sound.

The scene of laughter suddenly fell silent at this moment, Li Sui's eyes dimmed, and he didn't stay any longer, he turned around and bowed to Mrs Chen before leaving, when he reached the nurse's side, he gently pinched the little face of the child , then looked at the woman whose expression had eased a lot and said: "It can be seen that you have taken good care of Erlang."

Hearing Li Sui's words, the wet nurse's expression was touched, and when she raised her head, the person in front of her had already left, leaving only a beautiful and noble figure from her back.

When Li Sui stepped on the dead leaves on the path step by step, facing the sunset, he heard the sound of broken leaves, which seemed particularly bleak in the quiet and quiet winter Taoist temple.

Sensing that Li Sui's complexion was not very good, Nian Nu followed carefully all the way, but suddenly saw his princess gradually stop, looking at the rouge-like sunset in the sky, although he didn't say anything, there was a faint light between his brows. Sorrow is very clear.

"Princess, what happened to you today—"

Hearing Nian Nu's soft questioning, Li Sui turned to look, and then slowly blurted out when he met Nian Nu's worried eyes: "Nian Nu, what if I have to borrow something from others for myself—"

Seeing Nian Nu's puzzled look, Li Sui smiled and shook her head, but she didn't say any more. She had thought about the marriage with Zhao Yi for a long time, and if she hadn't been provoked by Princess Pengcheng today, she would have had to do so In Aniang An's heart, she originally wanted to wait until Zhao Yi came back, and when Zhao Yi was willing to make an alliance with her——

From the moment he heard that Princess Pengcheng wanted to come to Yuqing Temple, Li Sui already guessed that Pengcheng would definitely make such a move.Because she knew that Princess Pengcheng deeply understood the position of her mother in the heart of her father Li Zhang, and no one could replace her.So what she said today was not for her, Li Sui, or her mother, the Chen family, but for Peng Cheng himself, or their Chen family.

Princess Pengcheng wanted to use her to shake her mother with family righteousness, completely involved her in this battle, and let her be used by the royal family as a pawn to contain her father.

If one day the mother does not hide from the world like she is now, but stands on the opposite side of the Li family and becomes the defender of the royal family, then she and her father are doomed to face a battle that no one can win with a smile.

The main purpose of Princess Pengcheng is to make her father be wary, and she even wants to use this to drive the Li family to defect and become an enemy of the Yang family in an instant.

What she Pengcheng was thinking was two-handed calculations. If it works, the royal family will have the help of the family. If it doesn't work, she can borrow her mother alone, so that Yang Chongyuan has to suspect that Li Zhang has wavered, thus separating Li and Yang because of marriage. weak alliance.

But Li Sui knew very well that even if Princess Pengcheng gathered the power of the Li family, the Shangguan family, and the Turks to destroy the Yang family, what would happen after that?

The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks.

The royal family headed by Princess Pengcheng will not keep the Shangguan family, let alone see the Li family dominating or becoming the next Yang family.

How could she just watch Princess Pengcheng turn the Li family into a knife that can be used if it is easy to use, and can be thrown away at any time if it is not?

With Princess Pengcheng's deep thoughts, if she was a man, she might be more suitable to be a ruthless and scheming emperor than the current Emperor Yuan Cheng.

But no matter how sympathetic and sympathetic she is, she will never allow anyone to make up her mind or touch the people around her in the slightest.

Even if, that person still has a bit of the same blood as hers.

Not enough to be her fear and constraint——

Thinking of this, Li Suiwei raised her head. The sunset glow fell on her face, which was very gentle and peaceful, but those pupils were completely black, so deep that one could not see the bottom.
