I did evil in the feudal land, but I was called a virtuous king

Empress Qi's pupils dilated slightly, the warehouse was actually full of gold, silver and jewels, as high as a hill.

"Mother, there are ten other servants in such warehouses." Li An said with a smile.

"An'er, why do you have so much money?" Empress Qi looked at Li An nervously, don't be An'er who came here for corruption and bribery.

She taught Li An and the three brothers since childhood that they must be upright!

"Mother, don't worry, this money is all earned by my son's business, you have seen it before, it is very easy for my son to earn money.

So queen mother, you don't have to worry that your son will be hungry or cold, let alone worry about what kind of grievances your son will suffer outside.

Looking at a warehouse full of gold, silver and jewels, Empress Qi clenched the hairpin in her hand, and subconsciously hid her hands in her sleeves, looking a little embarrassed.

It turned out that An'er was not short of money, it was because she was too worried.

Although she felt that her behavior was embarrassing and meddling, Empress Qi still squeezed out a smile and looked at Li An: "An'er, as long as you don't lack money.

It's just An'er, you don't lack money, why do you still ask your father for it? "

Li An met Empress Qi's gaze with a smile, took the pearl hairpin from Empress Qi's hand and helped her put it on, and at the same time explained: "If you say it's missing, it's missing, if you say it's not missing, it's not.

In the short term, the son is not short of money, but in the long run, the son still needs a lot of money.

Today, Dahua has been corrupted by the gentry and the people are destitute, and a lot of money is needed to restore people's livelihood.Instead of leaving the money to the third and fourth idiots to send to colluding ministers, it is better to save it with me. "

Hearing this, Empress Qi looked at Li An with a serious expression: "An'er, your father intends to make you the crown prince."

Empress Qi knew that the main purpose of the old emperor bringing her to Qingshui County was to persuade her to persuade An'er.

Li An helped Empress Qi adjust the position of the pearl hairpin, and said with a smile: "Mother, you should know that my son has no intention of taking power."

"But what you did..." Empress Qi looked at Li An.

Li An is so concerned about people's livelihood, and worried about the war in the northern border, shouldn't the king be worried about it?

"Mother, the people are the foundation of the country. If the son wants to be a rich and unrestrained king, everything must be based on the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people."

"But this is your father's holy order after all, and it is hard to violate the holy order."

"Father only wants a wise ruler who can govern the country well, and this person doesn't have to be me." Li An smiled.

"But if the third or fourth child inherits the great line, the queen mother is worried that they will not let your brothers go." Empress Qi's eyes were full of worry.

Being in the emperor's house, sometimes you can't live in peace without fighting or grabbing. Being too good in the emperor's house is also a sin, and An'er is not a star and a half better than other princes.

"Mother, your worries are also known to my son, but mother, force is the best and most practical protection. The father has already given my son a 20 army. As long as you give your son some more time, no one will be able to threaten you again." Son minister.

Besides, the two idiots, the third and the fourth, would not be able to inherit the rule if nothing else happened. The emperor had a better choice. "

"Kan'er, don't you intend to inherit the throne?"

"The queen mother forgot, isn't there a younger brother? He has the ambitions of an emperor and the ability of an emperor. My son will pave the way for him."

Li An smiled lightly.

The temptation is great to be emperor, but he doesn't want to be.

Being in a high position also has to perform the duties that a high position should perform. He just wants to spend his life leisurely, and doesn't want to worry about the country.

He also doesn't want to make any great achievements for the world to sing praises and leave a name in history. He is just an outsider, and he just wants to live happily and domineeringly through this life, and then everything will return to nothingness, as if he had never lived.

People's pursuits are different. The supreme right can determine the life and death of others with one sentence. For others, this temptation is great.

From his point of view, that's all.

People live forever, contented and happy!

……

When Li An and Empress Qi came back, a table of sumptuous delicacies had already been served.

The family of four gathered together, Liu Yiyi respectfully put the dishes on the table, saluted and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Empress Qi smiled and waved to Liu Yiyi: "Miss Liu, sit here and eat."

Hearing this, Liu Yiyi was flattered, with an expression of disbelief.

She didn't express her opinion immediately, she saluted Empress Qi gratefully, and then looked at Li An seekingly.

Li An met Liu Yiyi's gaze and smiled calmly: "Yiyi, just sit down."

Liu Yiyi subconsciously looked at the old emperor again, and seeing that the old emperor didn't say anything, she obediently sat beside Empress Qi.

Empress Qi still recognized Liu Yiyi, a well-behaved and beautiful little girl.

Although Liu Yiyi came from a humble background, she was not good enough for Li An.

But after living half of her life, Empress Qi also took a lot of perspective.

The Qi family used to be quite powerful, right?It's not that His Majesty has been demoted as a commoner with a single word.

Whether the status is superior or inferior, it is only a matter of the emperor's words.

If the emperor says you are a nobleman, you are a nobleman; if the emperor says you are a commoner, then you are a commoner.

As long as An'er likes it, she believes in An'er's vision.

……

At the gate of Qingshui County, a familiar figure appeared.

Accompanied by Wu Hao, Li Xin entered the city.

His purpose was very clear, he went directly to Ping An Bank, and he met Lao Liu as soon as he arrived at the door.

"Lao Liu." Li Xin beckoned to Lao Liu.

Hearing the sound, Lao Liu ran over excitedly: "I have seen the prince, and the prince has come to Qingshui County again, do you need Lao Liu to arrange a one-stop service for you?"

"I'll have a drink later, where's the elder brother? Is it in the bank?" Li Xin asked.

The sixth child nodded wildly: "My lord, my lord is accompanying His Majesty and Empress Empress in the bank, and I might trouble you to go there by yourself."

"What did you say?" Li Xin's pupils dilated: "You said that Father came to Qingshui County?"

The sixth child nodded: "Your Majesty just arrived today."

The corner of Li Xin's mouth twitched violently, and he turned around and left: "Wu Hao, let's hurry up."

Li Xin still didn't forget to remind Lao Liu: "Lao Liu, I haven't been here before, remember!"

Father was not happy to see himself neglecting his duties and came to Qingshui County of Ninth Brother to fish, if he was caught by father, he would be dealt with again.

With this in mind, Li Xin is going to sneak out to pay respects!

But after walking a few steps, Li Xin remembered something and turned to look at the sixth child: "Wait, you just said that the queen mother is also here?"

The sixth child nodded.

Li Xin pinched his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "Forget it, I'm not leaving."

He also missed his mother and was worried about her condition.

If you can see your mother and queen, you will be punished by your father. Anyway, you have been punished a lot!

Thinking of this, Li Xin quickened his pace and walked towards the bank.

……

"Queen, you eat this." Li An thoughtfully served Empress Qi with food.

At this time, Li Xin's voice came: "Well, it smells so good, brother Jiu, you are eating, why don't you wait for my brother."

With that said, Li Xin rushed into the room quickly.

When he looked at the old emperor sitting at the dining table, he straightened his body pretending to be surprised, with an embarrassed smile on his face: "Father, why are you here?"

The old emperor put down the bowl and chopsticks, frowned and looked at Li Xin: "Shouldn't I ask you this? Your sea is so idle, why did you wander over to Lao Jiu again?"

Chapter 223

"Father, my son came to Qingshui County this time, not for strolling, but for business!" Li Xin looked serious.

"Business?" The old emperor frowned: "What business?"

"Father, Brother Ninth is about to attack the gentry in the southern border, and I'm here to watch and learn from Brother Nine!"

Hearing this, the old emperor looked at Li An in surprise.

Li An smiled and nodded: "Father, the time is ripe for the Southern Territory, and the sooner the cancer must be removed, the better."

The old emperor frowned and fell into deep thought. After thinking for a long time, he looked at Li An: "Now that the war in the northern border is tense, this may not be a good time!"

"Father, you don't have to worry, there won't be any troubles in the southern border of my son!" Li An looked confident.

Seeing that Li An was so confident, the old emperor also became interested, "It seems that there is still a good show to watch when I come here?"

"Father, this good show will never let you down."

When the father and son were chatting, Li Xin just looked at the wine on the table eagerly, smacking his mouth with greed: "Father, my son hasn't had dinner yet."

The old emperor gave Li Xin a blank look and said, "Just think about eating, sit down."

"Hey, thank you, Father."

Li Xin said, sat down unceremoniously, picked up the wine jar and poured himself a full glass.

"Father, my son respects you!"

……

It was night, in order to welcome His Majesty's private visit to Qingshui County, Li An threw out fireworks to celebrate.

Looking at the gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky, Empress Qi smiled all over her face.

Brothers and sisters Li An, Li Xin, and Lan Wei gathered together to fight the landlord, each with a lot of money on the table, having a great time playing.

The old emperor walked slowly to Empress Qi and sat down, admiring the fireworks with her.

"Has the queen helped me persuade An'er?" the old emperor asked.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the concubine has already mentioned this matter to An'er."

"What did Ann say?"

"Your Majesty, An'er has no intention of inheriting the throne, and he recommended someone to His Majesty."

"Who?"

"Xin'er."

Hearing this, the old emperor frowned and looked at the three brothers and sisters who were having a good time. Seeing Li Xin playing cards without forgetting to gulp down his wine, he looked a little disgusted.

"You bastard, this is the first time I've heard that someone is not even willing to be an emperor!" The old emperor was very angry.

"Your Majesty, maybe An'er's pursuit is to have fun in the world?" Empress Qi looked at the old emperor, and she also hoped that the old emperor would fulfill Li An's wish.

She could feel that An'er really didn't like and disdain to intrigue with others, just like herself.

The old emperor was silent for a moment, and said stubbornly: "An'er is just young and has become more playful. Let him settle down for a few more years, and he will agree if he becomes calmer."

"Your Majesty, does it really have to be Ann'er?"

"Well, it's up to him!" The old emperor nodded, "with An'er here, Dahua will never fall!"

Empress Qi sighed, looked away from the heartless three brothers and sisters, and continued to look at the fireworks blooming in the sky.

"Your Majesty, thank you for taking your concubine out for a walk." Empress Qi murmured.

Hearing this, the old emperor was startled, he didn't answer Empress Qi, and there was a little more helplessness and guilt in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and gently embraced Empress Qi's shoulder.

"Has the queen ever hated me?"

The question was a bit inexplicable, but only the two of them knew what they were asking.

Empress Qi didn't answer, she shook her head slightly and leaned on the old emperor's shoulder.

"Your Majesty, empress, it's getting cold, and the prince asked his servants to give you two cloaks." Liu Yiyi's voice came.

Empress Qi turned her head and saw Liu Yiyi walking over with two cloaks in her arms.

Empress Qi smiled and nodded: "Thank you Miss Liu."

"Slaves are terrified." Liu Yiyi saluted respectfully, and handed the cloak to a palace maid.
