Li Chengqian's so-called punishment.
It was nothing more than forcing her to make snacks for Empress Changsun or Li Shimin.
In the eyes of others, this may not seem like anything.
But for Su Qingling, it was the same as forcing Li Tinxue to embroider.
I'm going to take my life...
Who is that?
Those were the current emperor and the current queen.
What they eat is not just a matter of fooling around.
And Su Qingling really has no talent in food.
Even under the command of Li Chengqian, she would have to work hard for a long time before she could make a finished product.
So much so that when she is asked to cook, her scalp feels numb.
But now I heard that Li Chengqian used this to threaten him.
She had no choice but to give in.
He followed Li Chengqian obediently and stopped joking.
Li Chengqian didn't say any more about the matter, and led Su Qingling directly to the garden of the East Palace.
Looking at the blooming flowers in front of him, Li Chengqian said with emotion: "Unconsciously, it has already been the twelfth year of Zhenguan."
"yes."
Su Qingling held Li Chengqian's arm, raised her head slightly and glanced at his side face.
Seeing her look like that, Li Chengqian smiled slightly.
He said: "What?"
"Do you want to hear what I have to say?"
Li Chengqian raised the corner of his mouth and asked, "We have been married for almost five years?"
Hearing this, Su Qingling's pretty face turned red.
She said: "That's not what I meant."
"I just think about it. In the past five years, too many things have happened."
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten what I was like five years ago..."
It has been five years since the seventh year of Zhenguan.
There are so many things that happened in the past five years that even Li Chengqian himself can hardly remember them.
Datang's territory has expanded, and its influence has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years.
And Li Chengqian himself also changed from the original King of Qin to the current Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Chengqian couldn't help but laugh when he thought about how he refused to obey five years ago and acted like a prince who said nothing.
"Come to think of it, I was really naive five years ago."
"I thought I could escape my fate, but in the end I still embarked on this path."
Li Chengqian glanced at Su Qingling and said, "Do you regret marrying me?"
"No."
Su Qingling shook her head.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and asked: "I won't accompany you, I will run out, and I will be immersed in government affairs every day. You don't regret it either?"
"No regrets."
Su Qingling curled her lips and said, "Actually, I had already thought of this when I married you."
"And it's not just me, Sister Su is the same."
"She even paid more than me. After all..."
Speaking of this, she was a little unable to continue.
Compared with Lu Wanjie, she is the luckier one.
At the very least, she has the status of the main palace, while Lu Wanjie is just a side chamber in the final analysis.
And because Li Chengqian and Lu Wanjie knew each other earlier.
Su Qingling, a latecomer, would inevitably feel a little guilty about her.
And Li Chengqian naturally knew this.
Li Chengqian also raised his head slightly and said, "Wanjie's younger brother got married this year, but he still doesn't have a career of his own."
"And this guy is not like the ordinary Lu family. He doesn't study literature, but instead studies martial arts. He can't take an official career."
"Judging from this guy's qualifications, even if he joins the army, he can only serve as a junior high school student. Don't even think about the rest."
"However, the first batch of students from the Wuhan Academy are now close to graduating, and recruitment for the second batch will begin."
"He also has some basic skills. He can be trained a little bit, and at least he can be a higher level than what he was in a small school."
Li Chengqian glanced at Su Qingling and said, "Go back and talk to Brother Ke."
Hearing this, Su Qingling was also stunned.
She pointed to her nose and said, "Shall I go?"
"Of course."
Li Chengqian tilted his head and said, "Don't you mean that Wanjie has given more, so wouldn't it be better to compensate her like this?"
Hearing this, Su Qingling suddenly reacted.
Immediately afterwards, she also gave Li Chengqian a big hug: "Thank you..."
Of course Li Chengqian knew that she felt guilty about Su Qingling.
Arranging for the relatives of the Lu family to enter the Wuhan Institute is equivalent to giving them a chance to soar into the sky.
To a certain extent, this is a big favor.
Even the Lu family would be grateful to Su Qingling.
And in this way, not only it would relieve the guilt in her heart, but at least it would make her feel better.
It's just a pain for Li Chengqian.
Originally, this guy had said that everything should be fair, and you should rely on your ability to earn a living.
But now, he also made an exception for Su Qingling.
When Su Qingling left Li Chengqian's arms, she said directly: "By the way, I saw you looking sad just now, what's on your mind?"
"It's not really a worry."
"It's just trivial matters at most."
Thinking of that, Li Chengqian also had a headache and said, "Don't you know that my sister is pregnant with Liujia."
"As a result, Gao Zhixing cannot leave Chang'an."
"But I originally wanted this guy to lead the first batch of students from the Wuhan Academy to complete the final assessment."
"But now, I'm afraid someone else will have to do this."
Li Chengqian also sighed, looked at Su Qingling and said, "How about you help me consult with my staff and choose someone?"
"I……"
Su Qingling was embarrassed on the spot and said: "You also know that I don't know anything about this."
"That's right, that's right."
Li Chengqian also sighed and said, "This step is really difficult for me."
"You don't know how difficult it is to control those people."
"Even with me suppressing them, these people may not be able to overturn the situation."
"But if I don't follow, I'm afraid these people will break the sky."
What he meant when he said this was already obvious, it was too high to go, but he wanted to go.
And how could Su Qingling not understand what he meant?
But Li Tingxue was not the only one who was pregnant, there was something in her belly too.
Gao Zhixing is inseparable. Could it be that Li Chengqian is enough?
At the moment, Su Qingling was also a little dissatisfied.
But after thinking about it, she said directly: "In that case, you can just let them choose."
"The people they selected themselves will not be able to suppress them..."
After hearing this, Li Chengqian originally wanted to refuse directly.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that what Su Qingling said made sense.
Indeed, if they are allowed to choose the people themselves, they will be able to suppress them, right?
After thinking about this, Li Chengqian directly hugged Su Qingling and kissed her hard: "Not to mention, you girl is really my good wife sometimes."
"No la……"
Su Qingling's face turned red and she said, "I just don't want you to be too far away from me, after all..."
While speaking, Su Qingling also looked down at her belly.
She also wants her lover to accompany her through this painful period.
Likewise, she wanted her children to be able to see their father when they came into this world.
Seeing her like this, Li Chengqian also pursed his lips.
In fact, sometimes it is better to say that Su Qingling owed Lu Wanjie than he owed these two women.
After getting married, he either went to the south or the north, he also went to the east and the west. Anyway, he was not at home.
Spending more time with them is not as good as spending time with the soldiers.
Li Chengqian raised his hand to take her into his arms, and whispered: "I have suffered a lot from you all these years..."
