"Uncle...this...this...this...this...this is the case?"

Li Chengqian quietly came to Changsun Wuji's side, and secretly pointed at Li Zhan and Li Shimin who were hugging each other and asked.

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "This is father-son family affection, Cheng Qian... You have to learn from your elder brother!"

"Is this father-son family affection?" Li Chengqian showed a slightly stingy expression.

After a while, Li Zhan and Li Shimin separated, and at this time the two of them also discovered Li Chengqian. Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked, "Chengqian, why are you here?"

"Uh..." Li Chengqian smiled and said, "I heard that my elder brother is here, so I want to come and have a look."

"Is that right..." Li Shimin nodded and said, "You are quite considerate of your elder brother, okay... It's getting late now, let's have a meal together."

After saying that, Li Shimin looked at Li Zhan and said, "It's right in the hall next door, Zhan'er... how can you see?"

"The father is the master of everything...!" Li Zhan smiled slightly, but Li Chengqian on the side looked at Li Zhan in surprise, because Li Zhan had never called him Father Li Shimin in front of him.

....................................

In the side hall of Ganlu Hall.

A table of wine and food was made on the table by Li Zhan, Li Chengqian, Li Shimin, and Changsun Wuji. Li Shimin smiled and took the lead in raising the wine glass and said, "I am very happy today. My eldest son is back... He called me "Father". I really want to tell you my current mood, so I will give you a cup."

After saying that, Li Shimin drank the wine in the glass in one sip.

The emperor toasted, who dared not to drink? Li Zhan, Li Chengqian, and Changsun Wuji also drank the wine in the glass together. After drinking, the prince Li Chengqian immediately brought up the wine pot and filled the other three people with his own wine glasses.

You can't imagine that a prince would pour wine very attentively, and the scene was really interesting.

After the wine was finished, Changsun Wuji smiled and raised his glass and said, "Then let me give you a reason to do it first, and I will do it first, so I will congratulate Your Majesty on your recognition and Your Highness and His Highness and His son."

"good...!"

Seeing Changsun Wuji drinking the wine in the glass in one sip, Li Shimin called out, and followed Li Shimin and Li Zhan and Li Chengqian to toast the wine in the glass.

After drinking, everyone laughed. Li Shimin looked at Li Zhan and said, "Come on...eat the food... I heard Cheng Qian say, Zhan'er, you like to eat honey stewed with bear paws. I specifically instructed Shangshi Bureau to make it."

Li Zhan smiled and picked up a chopstick and ate it into his mouth.

Li Shimin immediately asked, "How is it...is it delicious?"

Li Zhan smiled and said, "It's delicious, especially delicious..." Li Zhan picked up another chopstick and put it into his mouth.

Seeing that his son likes to eat the dishes he prepared, Li Shimin became even happier and said repeatedly: "Slow down, it's all yours. If you taste delicious, eat more."

Li Zhan nodded 'um', and Li Shimin looked at Li Zhan's eating, which made him feel more beautiful than eating himself. This feeling was only experienced in Yizi before, but today he actually experienced it in Li Zhan.

While eating and drinking... Li Zhan also told Li Shimin about the Cui family while eating. Li Zhan meant not to kill the Cui family. After all, it is impossible to kill the Cui family with one knife now. The so-called leaving a line of things on the front line, so we can meet in the future.

Li Zhan's words were praised by Li Shimin. He felt that Li Zhan knew that he would stay on the front line in his work and meet him in the future. He was absolutely wise. Unlike other princes, they all looked down on themselves, but they were actually too reckless.

Li Ke, Li Tai, Li Yan, Li You... Including Li Chengqian, these princes are still too young, while Li Zhan is different, which makes Li Shimin very relieved.

"Zhan'er... In the future, your brothers, you should take care of them more. I will give you privileges. As long as you don't beat them to death, you can punish your brothers at will. If someone dares to resist, I will make them look good."

Li Shimin's words made Li Chengqian on the other side stunned, oh... because the power given is really too great, which means that all the princes are under Li Zhan. However, Li Zhan is the eldest son of the emperor, so it is also necessary to have such power.

Li Zhan nodded and said, "Father, I know how to do it. All my younger brothers still have big problems. My father is busy with the world's affairs every day, so I will manage the small things in the family."

"Okay...good..." Seeing Li Zhan agreeing, Li Shimin was very happy.

Then I heard Li Shimin say, "Zhan'er... I've thought about it and prepared to make your identity public after a while!"

But what Li Shimin did not expect was that Li Zhan waved his hand and said, "Father... don't worry about the public identity for the time being!" After saying that, Li Zhan looked at Li Chengqian beside him and said, "The prestige of the prince is not enough. If my identity is made public, the eldest son is not the prince, which may cause trouble in the court.

Moreover, I have a relationship with the Cui family, the Li family in Longyou, and the Zheng family. I am afraid that these families will make trouble for this matter.

I think it can be alleviated for one or two years. In this year or two, the prestige of the prince can be increased and the support of the prince can be obtained by the prince more. In this way, after I appear, I will not be able to shake the prince's status, and that will prevent the storm in the court."

The reason why Li Zhan did this was that Li Zhan knew that there were many wars behind the Tang Dynasty and that there could not be any fluctuations in the court. This was the most important thing, so Li Zhan could not recognize his father selfishly immediately.

But Li Zhan's words made Li Shimin frown slightly, why did he frown... Because Li Shimin didn't want the prince to gain more people's hearts, this is what the emperor contradicted.

The emperor must praise the prince, but he must also guard against the prince. If he told Li Zhan, the prince has gained more people's hearts and cannot shake his status, it will be a threat to the emperor.

Li Zhan knew what Li Shimin was thinking, so Li Zhan turned around and looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Chengqian, Brother has a few words to tell you, you must remember it firmly.

What the Father gave us is ours.

If your father doesn’t give us anything, you don’t have any unreasonable thoughts, because if there is, your elder brother will definitely cut it off for you.”

After saying that, Li Zhan said to Li Shimin again: "Father, Cheng Qian is not smart enough, and he has been ridiculous. However, Cheng Qian has the same thing, that is filial piety and brotherly love.

He came here today, probably to be punished with me, which is rare.

Chengqian is more than enough to be a founding king. I will expand his territory. My father... please believe me...!"

Looking at Li Zhan, Li Shimin smiled slightly and said without refusing: "Okay... I believe in you, a year... I will give you a year to help Chengqian gain the people's expectations. A year later, I will announce to the world that you are my eldest son, can you...!"

"My son thanks my father."

As he said that, Li Zhan knelt down, but Li Zhan would not have thought that his identity had not been hidden for a year, and there would be a big accident later that led to Li Zhan having to announce his identity.

If Li Zhan had not announced his identity, then Chang'an would suffer a catastrophe.

What Li Zhan even more unexpected was that soon... Li Zhan was about to be discovered by Empress Changsun. With a glance, Empress Changsun recognized Li Zhan.
