"Father, you don't have to reward me like this."
Li Jiancheng smiled and said,
"This Hunyuan Pill was also given to me by Xue Wanche. I have already rewarded him generously.”
"Therefore, this pill can be considered as a gift from your son to Imperial Father.”
Li Yuan was naturally in a good mood after obtaining the pill.
He looked at the pill and smiled.
"Oh? In that case, I should reward you.”
"Speak! What reward do you want? Tell me!"
Li Jiancheng shook his head.
"Everything I have was given to me by Imperial Father. This small gift is just like a crow returning the favor.”
He said sincerely,
"Your son does not ask for any reward. I only hope that father can enter the Emperor realm as soon as possible after obtaining this divine pill!”
"When the time comes, Imperial Father's might will spread throughout the universe, and the four seas will submit!”
Bang!
Li Yuan slapped the armrest, his face beaming with joy.
"Good!"
"Good! Good!"
he cheered.
"As expected of Zhen's good son, the good Crown Prince!”
"Your filial piety and sincerity, Father is gratified, Zhen is very gratified!”
"Men, give me a seat!"
The chamberlain quickly brought over two chairs.
According to the rules of etiquette, the emperor was seated, and the ministers could be given seats, but the prince had to stand.
But today, Li Yuan had completely disregarded the rules!
It was obvious that Li Jiancheng's words had hit the nail on the head!
"Imperial Father, your son feels guilty. Your son does not dare to sit!”
Suddenly, Li Yuanji knelt on the ground with a thud, his voice choked.
Li Yuan glanced at him.
"What are you feeling guilty about?" he asked.
"Your son does not feel ashamed for anything else, but for not being able to share Imperial Father's worries!”
Li Yuanji knelt down and said,
"All these years, your son has been living a sensual and absurd life without any capable subordinates.”
"Now that the Heavenly Dao has released the Tiger List, none of my subordinates can enter the top 100!”
" I saw someone under my brother offer a Heavenly Dao treasure to my father and share his worries…but I couldn't offer a treasure…"
"Your son is ashamed, your son is ashamed!”
He kowtowed heavily, thumped the ground heavily with his hands, and even sobbed in a low voice.
It really looked like he was extremely guilty!
After hearing this, Li Yuan's expression softened.
"Get up, this isn't your fault."
He raised his hand and comforted,
"Your imperial uncle, Li Shentong, is only ranked 100th in the mid-stage King realm. There are many crouching tigers and hidden dragons on the Tiger List!”
"Now, only four or five people from my Imperial Family are on the rankings. You're the youngest and don't have your own faction. Isn't it very normal that no one under you is on the rankings?”
"Don't blame yourself. Father is pleased that you have such intentions.”
"You are all good children of Imperial Father! Sit, sit."
After some comforting, Li Yuanji nodded and sat down.
However, after he sat down, he was not content and suddenly said,"
"I really envy Second Brother…"
"There are already four people under him on the Heavenly Dao Tiger Rankings this time. All of them have extraordinary combat strength!”
"I never would have thought that those few low-ranking generals would actually hide so deeply! All of them are at the peak of the King realm!"
The smile on Li Yuan's face suddenly disappeared and he fell silent.
"This time, we can't fight for Eldest Brother anymore. Second Brother has taken all the limelight!”
Li Yuanji said loudly,
"Congratulations, Imperial Father, for obtaining four more Heavenly Dao treasures! With Second Brother's filial piety, he would have already given all the treasures to Imperial Father, right?”
Li Yuan glanced at him.
"Your Highness King Qi…"
The chamberlain's expression was somewhat awkward as he said,
"His Highness the King of Qin did not offer up the Heavenly Dao Treasure.”
Li Yuanji revealed a puzzled expression.
"Oh? Is that so?"
He thought for a moment and said,
"Then…perhaps Second Brother's movements were a bit slow. Perhaps he's on his way to the Imperial Palace to pay his respects.”
"Perhaps, I will soon receive Second Brother's memorial.”
"Be careful."
"I've been paying attention." The servant nodded repeatedly.”
"Humph."
Li Yuan suddenly snorted and said,
"I didn't expect that the Heavenly Policy Prefecture had already accumulated such a force.”
"Peak of the King realm, perfection of the King realm..."
"These are all rare generals! If they were given the title of King of a different surname, they would probably have to rush to the Emperor Realm!”
"Erlang really has a discerning eye…"
It sounded like a compliment, but as long as one wasn't an idiot, they would know that Li Yuan was very unhappy.
When I was the emperor, there were only four or five people on the rankings in the entire imperial family.
You, the King of Qin, actually have four generals on the rankings. Moreover, your rankings are so high that they have all entered the top 40!
This strength, if not for the Tiger List revealing it, he would actually still be kept in the dark and not know at all!
What was Li Shi Min trying to do by hiding these cards?
The two princes could hear the dissatisfaction in Li Yuan's heart and immediately looked at each other.
The time had come.
"Father…"
Li Jiancheng was the first to speak.
"Earlier, your son sent a memorial regarding the change of defense in the northern border.”
"General Li Jing has worked hard and made great contributions. He has finally returned to the capital to report on his work after enduring all these years.”
"However, the defense of the Northern Territory is of utmost importance. There must not be the slightest flaw. Your son believes that we should send a trustworthy, reliable, and capable person to guard it.”
Li Yuan raised his head slightly and looked at Li Jiancheng.
Of course, he had already read the contents of the memorial.
However, he had been focusing on breaking through to the great emperor realm and paying attention to the Dragon and Tiger Board for the past few days, so he put it aside.
"You mean to let Yuanji guard the northern border, right?”
Li Yuan asked.
"Yes."
Li Jiancheng nodded and explained,
"Although Yuanji is young, his talent in leading troops in battle is extremely high. He played an important role in the success of our Great Tang.”
"In addition, he is a prince. If he goes to the Northern Territory, he will naturally have more prestige and be more convincing.”
" But…it's easier to conquer a country than to defend it. What I'm most afraid of is that he lacks experience and will be taken advantage of by the cunning barbarians, so…"
It had to be said that the Crown Prince's words were truly superb.
These words pushed Li Yuanji to the position of the best candidate.
In the end, he left a message for Li Yuan to answer.
"Come, give me…that memorial."
Li Yuan waved his hand casually.
The chamberlain quickly brought the memorial and handed it to the Emperor.
Li Yuan casually flipped through it and said,"
"So you want to send some generals to assist him?”
"Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, Qin Qiong…"
"Ha, these are all members of the Heavenly Policy Manor, the beloved generals of the King of Qin!”
He held the memorial and looked at Li Jiancheng.
"Aren't you afraid that your second brother will be dissatisfied?"
Li Jiancheng's expression turned cold, and he asked in puzzlement,"
"Father's words…I don't quite understand.”
"These generals are generals of the Great Tang and are under your command, Imperial Father.”
"What do you mean by Qin Wang's beloved general? Why would Second Brother be unhappy?"
"Aren't these your generals? Isn't he a general of the Great Tang? When did they become a private army?”
"Your son is puzzled.”
