Chapter 28

Li Chengqian was stunned when he heard Li Shimin's words. He didn't expect Li Shimin to actually find someone to look at the picture, but it was reasonable.

Taking a deep breath, Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin with a smile and asked softly.

"What did that old man say?"

[This is a cross-generational development. Once it is announced, it will benefit many people. 】

[Not only that, but I have many similar blueprints. As long as you can praise me and treat me with a better attitude, maybe I can be merciful and come up with a few more. 】

Hearing what Li Chengqian was thinking, Li Shimin raised his brows slightly, looked at Li Chengqian and said with a half-smile.

"The man said, if there are more drawings, it will be of great help to the common people. Can you still make something like this?"

Hearing what Li Shimin said, the original smile on Li Chengqian's face suddenly became stiff.

He opened his mouth slightly but felt as if something was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't say anything.

After a long silence, he smiled awkwardly.

"Father's stuff needs inspiration. How can you just make it out? It's not that easy."

[If you take out too much at once, don't you want to doubt my identity? 】

[It's really a headache, it seems that it's better to do less of this kind of thing in the future. 】

[It really is true that the companion is like a half tiger, Li Shimin is worthy of being an emperor through the ages. 】

Li Shimin listened to these voices quietly, he could understand the meaning of each of these words, but he felt a little at a loss when they were connected.

What does it mean to doubt his identity?

Could it be that Li Chengqian is not his son?
Can he not know what the son he raised looks like?

Can I still admit my mistake?
But before he could think about it, he heard Li Chengqian continue.

"If Dad really needs it, I'll try my best to think about it. Can I give you another one after a while?"

"Well, you can figure it out yourself."

Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian with complicated eyes.

It was fine before, but now that he heard Li Chengqian's heartfelt words, he was a little suspicious of Li Chengqian.

I don't know when it started, but my eldest son is indeed very different from before, and many living habits have changed.

If Li Chengqian knew about this change in attitude, he would definitely scold himself a thousand times in his heart.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin stared at Cheng Chumo, his face was always dark.

"Did you instigate Chengqian to go to the brothel with you?"

"I didn't. In fact, the situation at the time was..."

Before he could go out and say nothing, Li Chengqian slapped him on the arm, and Cheng Chumo looked at Li Chengqian blankly, not understanding.

"Uncle Cheng, what happened..."

Hearing that Li Chengqian took Cheng Chumo to the brothel to solicit business, Cheng Yaojin and Li Shimin looked at each other and nodded indifferently.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door suddenly.

"General! General Cheng!"

The voice was that of a very immature child. The child knocked on the door very hard. Cheng Yaojin frowned and saluted Li Shimin.

"His Royal Highness, I'll go out and have a look."

Li Shimin nodded.

Not long after Cheng Yaojin left, he brought back a boy covered in scars.

The boy came in and looked at so many people, his big eyes were full of timidity.

Frowning, Li Shimin looked the boy up and down, seeing the injuries on his body, the air pressure in his body dropped a little.

"what's going on?"

The boy trembled slightly from the shock of Li Shimin's aura, and looked at Cheng Yaojin carefully.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin winking at him, the boy knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Shimin a few times.

"This lord, the third son of Cao Min Wang, is the eldest son of the king in the east of Chang'an City. My father was beaten to death by the landlord's son."

"Beating to death by the landlord's son? Doesn't the local government care about this matter?"

Li Shimin frowned, this kind of thing should be in the hands of those in the government.

Unexpectedly, the child found Cheng Yaojin directly.

Obviously, they didn't care about it at all.

The eldest son of Wang pursed his lips, still kowtowed, and his forehead soon turned red.

"My lord, they are all a family, and Cao Min was beaten up by them when they went."

While speaking, Wang Laosan actually choked up a little more in his voice, and his big moist eyes were full of water.

"There is really no other way, the grass people can only come to General Cheng's mansion."

At this time, Cheng Yaojin's face was full of anger. He was straightforward and quick-tempered when he heard this and immediately complained about it.

"I'd like to see what kind of landlord it is. The Son of Heaven beats someone to death, yet he is still irresponsible!"

And the ones who were killed were the peasants in their own hands.

Li Shimin also had a little more haze in his heart.

But at this moment, Li Shimin heard Li Chengqian's voice.

[What's the fuss, it's normal. 】

[Cheng Yaojin is a good person in the hearts of Chang'an folks, so he will come to him for help when encountering any difficulties. 】

[As for the landlord's son who has been above ten thousand people since he was a child, how could he put the lives of these farmers in his eyes? 】

[Since ancient times, the family of officials and merchants has become a small landlord, so how could it be possible that they have no one of their own in the officialdom. 】

【Well, after all, the current system is too bad】

At this point, Li Shimin took a deep breath. He knew in his heart that the officials of the Tang Dynasty should indeed change.

It must be rectified, but these are all things after he took office.

He is still the prince now, and he still got it by killing his elder brother, so let's stabilize his position first.

"Cheng Zhijie, let's go together."

Cheng Yaojin, who was in a panic at first, froze for a moment when he heard Li Shimin's words, and looked at Li Shimin in disbelief.

"what?"

Before Cheng Yaojin could react, Li Shimin looked at Wang Laosan.

"You lead the way, we will follow and seek justice for you."

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

Wang Laosan's eyes were full of joy.

Just now Cheng Yaojin winked at him, it was obvious that Li Shimin in front of him had a higher official position than Cheng Yaojin.

The adults are willing to go there with him, this incident will definitely give him an explanation.

After adjusting his mood, Wang Laosan hurriedly got up and took everyone there.

Originally, Li Chengqian and Cheng Chumo wanted to avoid it, after all, no matter how they said it, the matter of the two of them going to the brothel together was absolutely impossible to end like this.

It's better to slip away early.

"You two boys will follow."

But what Li Shimin said next made the two of them look bitter, and they could only follow behind obediently.

From a distance, Li Shimin could hear the muttering behind him.

[I'm still rushing back to collect my recliner, and then I'll see if I can get some cotton. 】

cotton?

Hearing this word, Li Shimin frowned slightly. In his impression, these unfamiliar words that popped up in Li Chengqian's mind played a vital role in the development of Datang.

Is it possible that this cotton is also a good thing that benefits the country and the people?
It seems that during this period of time, we still need to find someone to supervise Li Chengqian.

With this in mind, Li Shimin went to Chang'an County Magistrate's Mansion together.
