"Master..."
"Can you please stop beating? It hurts so much..."
Li Chengqian had tears in his eyes and said a little aggrievedly.
The master's slap was really merciless at all, it was completely forceful!
Half of his face is a little deformed now!
"no!"
Xu Fenglei said angrily,
"Hurry up, I count to three!"
"one!"
Uh-huh.
Li Chengqian turned his face around suddenly, and then closed his eyes.
He frowned, ready for a second slap.
"You traitor! You!"
Xu Fenglei's palm was raised high, but looking at Li Chengqian's appearance, he felt a little soft-hearted and couldn't do it.
"well!"
His palms hung in the air for a while, then he finally put them down and sighed.
"Open your eyes!"
"I won't beat you anymore. I'll feel bad if I beat you!"
Xu Fenglei said helplessly.
Li Chengqian then opened his eyes. Although half of his face was swollen, he still showed a bright smile.
"Master! I knew you would feel sorry for me..."
"Can I...can I give you a hug?"
There was hope in his eyes.
Xu Fenglei nodded and opened his arms.
"Master!"
Li Chengqian threw himself into Xu Fenglei's arms, his eyes suddenly turned red, and tears streamed down his face.
"Woo woo, woo woo..."
"Master, you are finally back, woo woo woo..."
Isolated and helpless, he returned to the warmest harbor, and it was difficult for him not to cry.
"The nature of a girl's mind."
Xu Fenglei sighed softly, patted Li Chengqian on the back and said,
"How can you be the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty?"
"Okay, okay, don't cry. I'm a man. It's not like a man to cry over such a trivial matter."
This kid's temperament is indeed too soft.
"My child doesn't want to be a prince anymore. What's the benefit of being such a prince?"
Li Chengqian wiped his tears and whispered,
"It's difficult and thankless, and you have to suffer neglect and glares."
"I don't want this crown prince position at all! Give it to whoever wants it!"
"Master, children are also self-aware. You also said that no matter how capable you are of eating a big bowl of rice, I don't have that ability, so I won't eat such a big bowl!"
Xu Fenglei frowned.
"No nonsense!"
He scolded,
"You are the real Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty. You have been here for so many years. How can you say that you are inappropriate?"
"If your father finds out, he will serve you with a stick again!"
"Don't say anything anymore, do you hear me? You have this potential. Master believes in you. Li Tai and Li Ke actually don't have as much potential or as high a ceiling as you."
"You have to have confidence in yourself! If your father suppresses you, just treat his words as farts!"
Five former apprentices.
The thought he spent on Li Chengqian ended up putting the most effort into coaching.
It's natural and closer.
For his favorite disciple, he certainly didn't want the child to give up on himself like this.
"But, being this prince will not make the child happy at all..."
Li Chengqian said a little lonely,
"I can feel that Li Tai and Li Ke are very happy, and my father also loves them very much."
"But I am not happy at all. I only have endless schoolwork and countless tests. If I fail to achieve it, it will be like committing a heinous crime."
"My child really feels that... my life is very unhappy. My child now wants to be a carefree vassal king."
"Master, do children really not have the qualification to choose their own path? Do they really have to follow my father's instructions and take this path that I don't want to take?"
After hearing these words, Xu Fenglei looked startled.
yes.
From the beginning, Li Chengqian was trained as the future emperor and the path to the throne was chosen for him.
But I never asked him if he was willing.
Everyone always thinks that being able to make you the prince and heir apparent is a great honor, a blessing that cannot be achieved in ten lifetimes.
But maybe people don’t think it’s a blessing, but rather it’s bad luck?
For a moment, he was also a little silent.
At this moment, a figure walked out of the hall.
Chengxin looked at Xu Fenglei carefully and then at Li Chengqian. When he saw the swollen half of his face, he couldn't help showing a distressed expression.
"Your Highness..."
He couldn't help but ran up, caressed Li Chengqian's face, and said softly,
"Does it hurt?"
"Slave, go get you an ice pack..."
Li Chengqian took Cheng Xin's hand and shook his head.
When his father slaps him, he will be angry and unwilling.
But when he was slapped by the master, he had no negative emotions at all. Apart from a little pain, he was even more happy for the master's arrival.
"Is this the wishful thinking?"
Xu Fenglei looked at the person in front of him with a gloomy expression.
"……yes."
Li Chengqian lowered his head, looking a little ashamed.
Plop.
Chengxin knelt down on the ground and begged Xu Fenglei:
"Every mistake is my slave's fault! Please don't anger His Highness the Crown Prince. Everything... has nothing to do with him!"
Wu Erya had been eating the melon for a long time, but now he couldn't help but jumped out and pinched Cheng Xin's face.
"Wow! Are you really a boy?"
"How come your face is smoother and softer than mine? Hahaha... you still have a scent! It smells so good!"
"Oh my God! How can there be a man more beautiful than a woman in this world! Even when he speaks, he has a woman's voice, and he speaks softly, and sounds better than me!"
"Tsk tsk... I don't know how many women feel ashamed when they see you, but I'm not included here because I'm prettier than you."
Wu Erya was startled and commented on Ying Xin's appearance.
I have to say, he is really beautiful! More woman than woman!
Fortunately, Wu Yatou is extremely confident in her appearance. Even though this beautiful girl is very good-looking, she is still not as good as herself!
"Stop whistling, your voice is nice."
Xu Fenglei lifted Wu Erya away angrily and said,
"Go, let's go."
"Watch from the side, don't come in."
Wu Erya pouted, but still obeyed and retreated to eat the melon.
"Although this person is a man, he has the appearance of a boy and a girl. His appearance, manners, and tone of voice all resemble that of a woman. This should have been professionally trained."
Xu Fenglei said in a deep voice,
"Actually, you still like women, you just like to pursue excitement and a sense of freshness."
"I thought you liked a tall and thick man. That would be too bad. I can barely understand the current situation."
This is just like some people in later generations who are obsessed with transvestite, a man pretending to be a woman.
Essentially, what I like is a woman's appearance, but I want to pursue something a little different, which is a bit of a problem with XP.
He also remembered an interesting piece of news.
A transvestite anchor, it was revealed that she was actually pretending to be a woman, and she was so angry that she lost her account. Thinking about it, it is quite difficult to deal with it.
"Uh...that's definitely not the case."
Li Chengqian was a little ashamed.
"Now I'm going to deal with you."
Xu Fenglei glanced at him, then turned to Chengxin and said,
"Your Majesty didn't ask anyone to kill you directly. He probably just waited for me to handle it."
"You have two paths to take now."
"The first rule is death. I will ask the guards to kill you immediately, but don't worry, you can keep your body intact."
Li Chengqian: "!!!"
"Master, no!"
He suddenly became anxious and said hurriedly,
"It's good to please others! He has been with me these days, otherwise I don't know how I would have spent it!"
"Please don't kill him, okay? He is also innocent..."
Xu Fenglei ignored him and looked at Cheng Xin.
Chengxin pursed her lips.
"Actually, I also know that this day will come sooner or later."
"But I am already satisfied with being able to accompany His Highness the Crown Prince these few months..."
He looked sad and didn't struggle at all.
This actually surprised Xu Fenglei.
This man looks so soft and weak, isn't he not afraid of death?
"Master, please..."
"As long as you don't kill him, anything else... the kid will agree!"
Li Chengqian was still begging, but Wu Erya on the side couldn't listen anymore.
"Brother Prince is so stupid! Didn't Godfather say there is a second way? You should listen to the second way before begging!"
The melon-eating crowd returns again.
Xu Fenglei glanced at her.
Wu Erya obediently closed his mouth.
"The second way is to become a monk or a Taoist priest, and you will never be able to see the prince again."
Xu Fenglei said again,
"Life, separation and death are the same here."
"One parting in life, one parting in death."
"There is no third way, Li Chengqian, don't think about bargaining with your teacher, this matter is non-negotiable."
His tone was extremely calm.
But in fact, he is more domineering than Li Shimin!
Just these two paths, don’t even think about getting involved together again!
"Let him become a monk! Master, let him become a monk!"
Li Chengqian said hurriedly,
"As long as I can live, that's fine! A playmate died because of me before, and I don't want to die again!"
"I promise, I will never see him again in my life!"
In fact, he had expected it.
The day when the master arrived was the day when he and Cheng Xin were separated.
In his heart, he was naturally a little reluctant to give up. After all, he had been in love for the past few months, but he also understood that... his absurdity should end here.
He doesn't care if he disappoints his father, because his father is always disappointed in him.
But if he disappoints his master, he cares about it, because his father always has high expectations for him.
"good."
Xu Fenglei said simply,
"Then let him become a monk, and I will arrange a temple in Liangzhou for him. When Tuyuhun is conquered, let him go to Tuyuhun to propagate Buddhism. This is also a way to maintain regional stability and contribute to the Tang Dynasty. .”
"Satisfactory, are you willing?"
Cheng Xin glanced at Li Chengqian.
"Whatever His Highness the Crown Prince says is whatever it is."
"All slaves obey."
He was still extremely submissive and responded to whatever was said.
It's no wonder that Li Chengqian can be defeated. After all, this boy has been suppressed too much by his father. He needs such an obedient person.
It would be great if this wish was a girl.
"Tuyuhun...it's so far away."
Li Chengqian secretly clicked his tongue.
The master was too careful, fearing that he would not keep his promise and would send Cheng Xin to a foreign country thousands of miles away...
"Not far away, it will all be Datang's territory in the future."
Xu Fenglei said,
"In a few years, Master Xuanzang should also come back from the Western Regions. You can connect with him then."
"I still have something to ask Xuanzang. I don't know if he has finished it."
Historically, Xuanzang returned to Chang'an in the late Zhenguan period.
But this time, with his own help, he didn't have to sneak across the border. He left very early, and naturally came back early, so I guess it would be soon.
"yes."
Yingxin responded,
"Slave, I obey."
Xu Fenglei nodded slightly and said:
"Then you should leave the palace now and stay in the post house for one night."
"I will arrange for someone to take you away tomorrow. Just go to Chang'an Posthouse and just mention my name. If it doesn't work, just say that the prince asked you to live here."
After communicating with Li Junxian, Xu Fenglei felt that——
perhaps.
Is my reputation still pretty good in Chang'an?
"yes."
Even without packing his bags, Xu Fenglei gave an order and turned around and walked out.
When he reached the palace gate, he couldn't help but look back at Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian lowered his head involuntarily.
Chengxin pursed her lips, turned right and left.
As soon as he left, Li Chengqian quickly raised his head, but when he saw the empty door, his heart also became empty...
"Stop looking, you unlucky boy!"
Xu Fenglei spat,
"I was in Jiuwei Mountain, and I almost got mad at you!"
"Don't do this kind of thing in the future! If you want to do it, do it with a woman. Don't be a bastard and play tricks on me! Otherwise, I'll break your legs!"
"Did you hear that?"
Li Chengqian was pulled back by this scolding and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Master..."
"There is no need to break the child's legs, they are already useless."
"Look, this on your feet..."
He took off his boots, exposing the big black sore on the sole of his foot.
"Um?"
Xu Fenglei said in surprise,
"So big? It's rotten to the bone!"
"How could it be so serious!"
He quickly squatted down and grabbed Li Chengqian's feet, frowning.
Such a big sore has extremely affected walking! To put it harshly, Li Chengqian is now a cripple!
Could it be that his thirst is getting worse again?
It’s not like this!
"I don't know...it's getting bigger and bigger and hurting more and more."
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and said,
"Grandpa Sun seems to have no choice, and Li Zhi is even more helpless. She can only try her best to control other parts of my body to prevent problems."
"Fortunately, there are only sores on the soles of my feet at the moment, and everything else... is fine."
Xu Fenglei looked solemn.
"This is serious."
He said in a deep voice,
"We have to find Sun Simiao again and thoroughly investigate the cause of the disease. If it is not a disease but something else, we must solve it for him!"
"This disease affects people's mood all the time!"
He was a little annoyed and confused before, but now he understands a little bit.
Why would Li Chengqian be so messy and do so many ridiculous things after he had only been away for a few months?
This foot disease is definitely one of the reasons! And it is probably the main reason!
This disease must be cured for him! Otherwise, the prince will definitely be uneasy!
