Noon, Qinjiazhuang, banquet hall
On the large round table specially made by the Qin Mansion, Princess Jinyang's cheeks were bulging, and her eyes were narrowed into slits when she smiled.
The Qin Mansion does not have as many rules as other mansions, especially during the New Year days. Most of the time, everyone sits around the same table to eat.
While everyone was enjoying the delicious food, Li Yuan suddenly put down his wine glass and said to Qin Ming:
"Brother Ming'er, grandpa has something to tell you."
Qin Ming put down his chopsticks after hearing this, smiled and said to Li Yuan:
"Grandpa, tell me."
Li Yuan patted Qin Ming's shoulder and said in a slightly bitter voice:
"Grandpa, I plan to go back to Taiyuan today."
Everyone at the dinner table was stunned when they heard this.
Just listen to Li Yuan continue to say:
"Grandpa has been very happy with you these days. Thank you, grandpa."
Qin Ming came back to his senses, looked at Li Yuan in disbelief and said:
"Old man, are you joking with your grandson? My second uncle, who is not a son of a man, is treating you like a son, and you still want to go back?"
Li Shimin: "...."
Queen Changsun: "...."
Li Yuan glanced at Li Shimin, smiled and said to Qin Ming:
"Didn't you persuade me yesterday to ease the relationship between me and your second uncle?"
Li Er glanced at Qin Ming in surprise when he heard this. He never expected that the reason why his father would talk to him today was because of Qin Ming's persuasion.
And since his father is willing to ease the relationship with him, does that mean he has forgiven him for what he did back then? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel hot.
After all, his father's attitude towards him has always been a worry for him since the Xuanwumen Incident. For him, his father was not only family affection, but also reputation.
After all, no one wants to bear the reputation of killing his brother and imprisoning his father. Once the relationship between his father and his father eases, or his father forgives him, his throne will be more stable and more legitimate.
So he was thinking at this moment that if Qin Ming could really help him get rid of this heartache, it would be a great achievement.
Just when he was thinking about how to reward Qin Ming if this happened.
Qin Ming looked at Li Yuan with a worried look and said:
"But grandfather, my second uncle is very cruel. What if he locks you up again after you go back?"
Li Shimin was furious when he heard this and wished he could pounce on him right now and beat up that kid Qin Ming.
I was just thinking about how to reward him, but I didn't expect that this kid would dare to slander me like this.
Changsun on the side seemed to have noticed Li Er's thoughts, and quickly reached out and pinched Li Er's waist.
Li Er was suddenly attacked and couldn't help but hissed.
Li Yuan heard the sound and turned to look at Li Er and Chang Sun. Upon seeing this, the two people hurriedly sat upright.
Li Yuan then looked away, looked at Qin Ming with a look of relief and said:
"Grandson, don't worry. Your second uncle has inherited the family business. I'm old and don't have a few more years to live. I think he won't be so heartless."
Seeing that Li Yuan had decided to leave, Qin Ming sighed and said:
"Since my grandfather has made up his mind, my grandson will naturally not stop him. However, we are going to Taiyuan County with high mountains and long roads. My grandson is really worried about letting you go alone. Otherwise, my grandson will summon the guards from the mansion today and tomorrow My grandson will personally take you back."
Li Yuan smiled and patted Qin Ming on the shoulder and said:
"I know you are filial. As long as you have the heart to do so, there is no need to give it away. Grandpa notified the guards left at the Great Wall yesterday. They should arrive soon."
If Qin Ming had known that what he said yesterday would lead to this result, he would not have said anything even if he was beaten to death.
After all these days of getting along, he had long regarded Li Yuan as his only relative.
At this time, Qin Ming heard that Li Yuan said that even the guards had been contacted, and his nose couldn't help but feel a little sore.
He was silent for a long time, then with red eyes, he picked up the wine glass and said to Li Yuan:
"Grandpa, my grandson would like to toast you and wish you a safe journey."
Li Yuan's eyes turned red when he saw this. He picked up the wine glass and said with a smile:
"well."
After saying that, the two of them picked up their wine glasses and drank down the wine in one gulp. Li Er, who was sitting next to them, saw this and was filled with emotion and gratitude to Qin Ming.
As for the bad things Qin Ming said about him, he would remember them first and settle things with this kid slowly in the future.
.....
At no time, at the gate of Qin Mansion
The news that Li Yuan was going back to Taiyuan County soon spread in the mansion, and many people rushed to the door of the mansion to say goodbye to Li Yuan and express their reluctance.
Even Yang Zijun, who usually didn't deal with Li Yuan, looked at the carriage behind Li Yuan with red eyes.
Qin Ming looked at Li Yuan with red eyes and said:
"Grandfather, when you get home, you must remember to tell your grandson that he is safe. If, I mean if my second uncle, who is not a son of a man, treats you badly, you must write a letter to your grandson, and your grandson will bring it with you. Guard Qi, go and seek justice for you."
Li Yuan was very moved when he saw Qin Ming's true feelings revealed.
"I have decided on this grandson-in-law. If the unfilial son dares to disagree, I will no longer recognize the unfilial son."
Thinking like this, Li Yuan patted Qin Ming on the shoulder and said:
"Grandpa knows and will write to you when the time comes."
After saying that, Li Yuan was about to get on the carriage. Qin Ming suddenly remembered something and quickly reached out to hold Li Yuan's hand and whispered in his ear:
"Grandpa, my grandson put two ginseng plants in your car. Remember to make soup when you go back. Also, you are not young, so you should be more moderate in the future."
Li Yuan was furious when he heard this, slapped Qin Ming hard and said:
"You brat, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm in good health."
After speaking, Li Yuan got on the carriage without looking back.
After Li Yuan got on the carriage, Qin Ming turned to look at Li Er and Queen Changsun.
Qin Mingchao and the two of them bowed and said:
"Uncle Li, Aunt Li, my nephew did not treat me well today. I hope Uncle Li and Aunt Li will not take offense."
Li Er and Empress Changsun had just witnessed the farewell scene between Qin Ming and Li Yuan. They were only grateful and there was no intention of blaming Qin Ming.
Empress Changsun smiled and nodded towards Qin Ming and said:
"My dear nephew, you are worrying too much. Auntie is having a great time today. It's too late to thank you, so how can I blame you?"
Qin Ming smiled and said:
"That's good. Auntie, it's getting late, so you should set off early."
Li Er and Chang Sun smiled and nodded when they heard this, and then they took the reluctant Princess Jinyang into the carriage.
