"Imperial Grandfather, what are you talking about? Who said we lost?"

Li Chengqian felt very speechless. He rolled his eyes and said in a bad mood.

"If we didn't lose, did we win?”

A bitter smile appeared on Li Yuan's face. Defeating the two hundred thousand Eastern Turks was an extremely difficult task, almost impossible.

"Of course, what's so difficult about that?”

Li Chengqian said matter-of-factly.

"Sigh, a child is a child. I don't know how dangerous the battlefield is!”

Li Yuan sighed, still not believing Li Chengqian's words.

"Imperial Grandfather, just now, I defeated the Eastern Turkic army and killed two Eastern Turkic Khans. Right now, Imperial Father is leading the Tang soldiers in pursuit of the remaining Eastern Turkic soldiers. It won't be long before Imperial Father and the others return triumphantly!”

Li Chengqian said indifferently. He did not know if Li Yuan, this old fool, would believe him.

"How is that possible? How long have you been there? It hadn't even been an hour, so how could he have won the battle?”

Li Yuan still did not believe Li Chengqian's words. After all, Li Chengqian had not left for long. If it was not for Li Chengqian's Ten Thousand Mile Misty Cloud Cover's speed, two hours would not even be enough for this eighty li round trip.

"Imperial grandfather, you truly are ignorant. Do you really think it will take a long time to deal with the Eastern Turks? I won't talk nonsense with you anymore. I'm going back. You can deal with these two hammers!”

Li Chengqian said indifferently. He threw the pair of golden hammers in front of Li Yuan and then jumped into the air.

Li Yuan looked at the pair of hammers in front of him and was speechless. The pair of hammers were so heavy. How could he carry them back? Moreover, they were still on the city gate tower. Just moving down the city gate tower would take a lot of effort.

Li Chengqian increased his jumping ability by 100,000 times and jumped into the air as if he was flying.

When his jumping ability increased by 100,000 times, Li Chengqian could still jump on the air, giving people the feeling that he was flying, like an immortal flying.

In the blink of an eye, Li Chengqian stepped on the air and arrived at Taiji Palace.

When the palace maids and guards in Taiji Palace saw someone flying in the sky, they thought that it was a god who had descended to the mortal world.

After returning to Taiji Palace, Li Chengqian had a headache. He did not have a palace yet.

A few days ago, Empress Zhangsun had promised Li Chengqian that she would allow him to move out. However, she had not been able to find a suitable palace for him.

In the past few days, Li Yuan had taken too much medicine and had a problem. Li Chengqian had been taking care of Li Yuan and had not considered the problem of his palace.

But now that all the problems had been solved, Li Chengqian had to consider where he should stay next.

He would definitely not live with Empress Zhangsun, nor could he live with Li Yuan. He had to ask Empress Zhangsun to arrange a palace for him. Otherwise, he would not even have a home and would feel like a stray dog.

……

Li Chengqian came to the Eastern Palace where Empress Zhangsun lived.

At this moment, Empress Zhangsun was kneeling in front of the jade statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva and praying non-stop.

"Merciful Bodhisattva Guan Yin of the Southern Sea, please bless His Majesty to survive this calamity, resist the Eastern Turkic invasion, and ensure the safety of the people of the Great Tang!”

"Mother, praying to Buddha is better than praying to yourself. If Guanyin and Buddha were reliable, the Hu people would not have invaded the Central Plains more than two hundred years ago!”

Li Chengqian walked to Empress Zhangsun's side and said to her lightly.

When Empress Zhangsun saw Li Chengqian disrespecting Guan Yin Bodhisattva, she couldn't help but frown. She scolded Li Chengqian angrily,"

"Chengqian, you cannot disrespect the Bodhisattva. Only by sincerely praying will our wishes be fulfilled and your father be able to successfully resist the Eastern Turkic invasion!”

"Mother, you're thinking too much. I've already defeated the Eastern Turks.”

Li Chengqian said indifferently. He did not believe in any supernatural beings.

"What is it? Is what you said true? Did your father really defeat the Eastern Turks?”

Empress Zhangsun became excited and asked Li Chengqian anxiously.

"Mother, you're mistaken. It wasn't father who repelled the Eastern Turks, it was I who repelled them!”

Li Chengqian said in a high-profile manner. This was the truth, and there was nothing to hide.

"Son, you're really great. Mother loves you to death!”

Empress Zhangsun became excited all of a sudden. She hugged Li Chengqian and kissed his forehead repeatedly.

This made Li Chengqian feel really awkward. Although his body was an eight-year-old child, his soul was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth. How could he withstand such temptation?

"Mother, please have some self-respect. Your son has already grown up!”

Li Chengqian said helplessly.

When Empress Zhangsun heard Li Chengqian's words, she thought of Li Chengqian's little bird that had already become a soaring eagle. She also thought of the sticky thing on the quilt that morning. Empress Zhangsun suddenly became shy. She no longer kissed Li Chengqian, but held him in her arms.

Li Chengqian wasn't tall, and Empress Zhangsun wasn't short either. After Li Chengqian was carried into Empress Zhangsun's arms, his entire face sank into the pair of huge honeydews, making Li Chengqian a little breathless.

Li Chengqian was extremely depressed. If he had known this would happen, he would have let Empress Zhangsun kiss him a little longer. Now that he was caught in these two honeydews, it was impossible for him not to have a reaction.

"Mother, I beg you not to be like this. How can you be so indecent in front of the jade statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva?”

Li Chengqian squeezed his head out and said to Empress Zhangsun.

Upon hearing Li Chengqian's words, Empress Zhangsun reluctantly let go of Li Chengqian. Looking at Li Chengqian's tender and cute but resolute little face, her eyes revealed the most genuine emotions.

For some reason, Empress Zhangsun suddenly could not help but lower her head and lean towards Li Chengqian's small mouth.
