Li Ke stopped his horse racing progress, but Li Chengqian did not stop. He had not ridden a horse for a long time. This time he finally got the opportunity and the venue, so he naturally wanted to have a good run. Besides, it is possible to run in the wild. The horse stumbled, but naturally there would be no such problem on this field.
Although it has already entered winter, the cold air keeps blowing across his face, and sometimes the cold wind can even make it difficult to open his eyes, but Li Chengqian feels very refreshed, with an inexplicable feeling of relief, as if all the previous depression has disappeared. Disappear with the wind as it runs wildly.
Li Chengqian's thoughts gradually became calm and clear, an unprecedented clarity. Is what Li Ke said useful to him? Of course it works! If it was him before, maybe he would agree directly without hesitation, and then go back and figure out how to write the memorial, but now Li Chengqian suddenly doesn't think so.
Li Ke regards him as a brother, and he also regards Li Ke as a brother. In this case, there is no difference between them, but he still has a question to ask Li Ke.
After running around for a while, he stopped next to Li Ke and Chang Le. Only then did Li Chengqian realize that the little guys in Jinyang were riding "Guo dismounted horses" that came as tribute from Lingnan Road and belonged to them. A kind of wild horse domesticated from the Han Dynasty. It has been a royal tribute since the Han Dynasty. This kind of horse was also used as tribute during the Tang Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, Li Ke also got a lot of horses here. These horses are only three feet tall when they reach adulthood. Not to mention, they are now equipped with special saddles. After being ridden by little guys like Jinyang, they are so small. Looks particularly cute.
Jinyang and the others were led by someone, and even though it was a pony, it was their first time riding, so naturally it was impossible for them to control it by themselves.
"Brother, how do you feel?" Li Ke asked with a smile.
"It won't have much impact." Li Chengqian nodded. As he spoke, Changle and the others also controlled their horses and started walking.
Li Chengqian naturally followed. After walking a few steps, Li Chengqian suddenly said, "By the way, I have a question to ask you."
"Brother, tell me." Li Ke was shocked. Did my stupid brother figure it out after running two laps?
"You said you were fine just going against those courtiers and aristocratic families. Aren't you afraid?" Li Chengqian asked curiously.
"Not afraid." Li Ke shook his head simply.
"Why?" Li Chengqian asked curiously.
"Without desires, you are strong, and all you ask for is hardship. I, Li Ke, have nothing to ask for, so what am I afraid of them doing? Firstly, I don't want to be an emperor, secondly, I don't want titles and rewards, and thirdly, I just like to play casually by myself. As long as my father can understand me, that's fine. It's their fault. If you don't accept it, they'll bite me." Li Ke shrugged.
Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke strangely, then he pondered for a moment, and suddenly felt that Li Ke's attitude towards life seemed to be one of the reasons why he could be so chic.
If you have no desires, you will be strong, and if you have desires, you will suffer. Well said! Isn't this the case for the world? Li Chengqian thought about it, as the prince, he seemed to have everything, so what should he fight for?
"That's it. You said it very well, so what you just told me, you can mention it in the memorial yourself. I won't write it." Li Chengqian shook his head and said lightly.
Li Ke: "?"
He was stunned, no, brother, what do you mean?
"Hey, wait, brother, you're doing this wrong." Li Ke quickly controlled the horse and let it walk a few steps quickly to catch up.
"What's wrong?" Li Chengqian glanced at him lightly and asked.
"Brother, you are different from me. As the prince, this is the prince's duty. It is your duty to help the world and save the world. It is your responsibility, brother. As a member of the royal family, as the eldest son, your birth has destined you. The future. Grandfather, my father has built such a huge empire, and he works hard every day. What is it for? Isn’t it for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and for the people to live and work in peace and contentment? "
"All of us don't care, but you, brother, can't, because you bear the fate of tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty, and their futures are all controlled by you, brother. That's why you, brother, are very important. And not only Common people, like us, Changle, Yuzhang, Sizi, etc., actually all of us have to rely on you, big brother."
"I know this puts a lot of pressure on you, eldest brother, but we brothers and sisters have no ideas, no ambitions, and no emperor's talents. We can only rely on you, eldest brother, so the third brother's ability is very important to us. It's of no use to me, but of course it's useful to you, brother. Just do as I say." Li Ke spoke earnestly, one hat after another.
Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke a little strangely. I believe he has no ambition, but he has no ink? Do you believe it yourself? If it had been before, Li Chengqian would probably have felt responsible for Li Ke's words, but after thinking about it, especially after Li Ke's words about having no desires, his thoughts suddenly became clearer. You What this boy is persuading is one set of things after another.
Li Chengqian smiled, and then said: "There is no conflict. I did not say that I will not bear the responsibilities of being a prince. I will also work hard to govern the country, but working hard to govern the country and borrowing your national policy suggestions from third brother will increase my Your own reputation, these are two different things. So you propose it yourself."
"It's not...this..." Li Ke suddenly got stuck. This is not right. Brother, how come your head is so smart all of a sudden? Brother, if you move forward without any burden, how can we have such a peaceful time!
"Brother, am I not doing this to make your reputation greater? This way you will gain more trust from the people and be less constrained by the family members." Li Ke racked his brains and said.
"Aren't you cutting off the strength of the family members? My father is young and strong. By the time I succeed to the throne, you will have already achieved your goal, so there is no need for my elder brother to work hard. I naturally don't have to worry." Li Chengqian took it for granted. He spoke.
"Oh, then I'm not the prince. If you don't do it, I won't do it." Li Ke started to lie directly.
"It's okay if I write it. Once I write it, I'll tell you the suggestions you gave me, and let my father issue an order to inform the world through Datang Daily." Li Chengqian nodded.
Li Ke: "..."
Brother, shouldn't I take you riding a horse? You just ran those two laps. Why, the wind blowing in front of you is full of spiritual energy. After you absorbed it, you opened up the Ren and Du meridians?
"Brother, you can't be like this. If you are like this, your father will think that I have led you astray. Are you going to beat me again? Brother, you don't want your brother to be beaten, right?" Li Ke said pitifully.
Looking at Li Ke's appearance, Li Chengqian suddenly had a flash of enlightenment. Is this what it means to be strong without desire? As long as I don't want to, no one can touch me?
"Why did my father beat you? What happened to me? I am no longer living freely, eating, drinking, and having fun. I still have to deal with state affairs." Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke with some doubts.
Li Ke: "..."
Chang Le and others next to them couldn't stop laughing. It was the first time they saw their third brother shrinking between words.
