He looked at Li Chengqian and Li Tai for the third time, and said in a deep voice: "The grassland has not been conquered by the Tang Dynasty from beginning to end. At the beginning, the two sides had a great war, just a conspiracy, and no one was a vassal state between them."

Li Chengqian nodded quickly and said hurriedly: "I already understand that the grassland is the wealth of Sister Linglong. Even after she gets married, the grassland will be hers."

"Not bad! Cheng Qian finally understood something."

Li Yun praised her without hesitation, but looked at Li Tai from the corner of his eyes. Li Tai's face turned pale and said quickly: "Women who get married will follow their husbands. Everything is from their husbands' family. Only the dowry is private property, and it is an industry that can be passed on to their children by themselves..."

As he said that, he was afraid that Li Yun would be dissatisfied, he said again: "We were greedy for the grassland before, but we were actually trying to seize Linglong's property, so we were beaten, because the grassland is the property that Sister Linglong is preparing to pass on to the children. Even if it is a cousin, you cannot seize it. Only Sister Linglong's descendants can inherit it in the world."

"Not bad! Qingque has also started to become obedient!"

Li Yun said meaningfully and still praised him, but he quickly changed his voice and smiled: "Now, let's talk about your beatings, why did all the elders not protect you when you were beaten?"

The two boys were stunned again immediately, feeling that this was simply repetitive and long-winded. They had already made it clear that the grassland is Linglong's private property.

But when Li Yun slowly breathed, he suddenly patted the two boys on the shoulders behind him and said with great meaning: "Have you forgotten that Bohai is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty. As a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, it requires 20% of the income to be paid every year as annual payment. We just decided on this matter in the morning. You were quarreling at that time, why did you forget it in a blink of an eye?"

Li Chengqian and Li Tai smiled embarrassedly, but unfortunately they still didn't understand Li Yun's hint.

Li Yun was helpless and could only make it clear and said: "My third place asks for the grassland, which has become the land of the Bohai Sea in name. What if it becomes the land of the Bohai Sea? The grassland also has to pay 20% of the income every year... And you are making a big fuss and stopping them from being allowed."

The two boys were stunned and finally understood what a big mistake they had made.

If the grassland belongs to Li Yun’s Bohai Kingdom in name, then it has to pay 20% of the income according to the rules. To put it bluntly, this should be considered as Li Yun’s desire to contribute to the family.

But they made a big fuss to stop Li Yun from owning the grassland...

Then 20% of the income from the grassland will be gone!

...

Plop!

Plop!

After two muffled sounds, Li Chengqian and Li Tai knelt on the ground almost at the same time. The two guys were ashamed and knelt in front of Li Shimin with their heads hanging down.

"Father, we, we..."

"Now you know where the mistake is?"

"I understand, my mind is too greedy!"

"This is not wrong..."

"Father?"

"Let your elder brother tell you again."

Li Shimin suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Yun directly to his side. This action seemed simple, but it should not be underestimated. This move was completely a matter of standing side by side with the emperor. The two boys on the ground were also kneeling in front of Li Yun.

Li Yun was stunned at first, and then he wanted to avoid it, but the emperor spoke solemnly and said with a serious look: "Stand and don't move, just let them kneel in front of you."

Li Yun didn't dare to agree. It was inconsistent with reason and couldn't help but say, "Second uncle, they are all my younger brothers..."

Li Shimin shook his head, and said with a more serious expression: "At this moment, you are the master."

Li Yun immediately understood.

He took a deep breath, bent down to look at the two guys on the ground, and said in a gentle voice: "Since your father insists, I, as the eldest brother, can only listen. Two brothers, listen. I will only say the next thing once, and I can only say it behind closed doors and say it, and I must not spread it to outsiders..."

Li Chengqian and Li Tai looked at each other, and their heads nodded like chickens eating rice.

Li Yun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "You just thought you were wrong with greed. This understanding is actually not appropriate. Greed is not wrong. As a royal family, you must be greedy. If a person is not greedy, he will lose the blood nature of fighting for profit. For example, His Majesty, he is very greedy. Sometimes, for small profits, he will not let any inch of land fight for anything. If you want to be a good emperor of a country, this is a necessary personality. An emperor who is not greedy or quarrel cannot make the lives of his people under his command better."

As he said that, he suddenly laughed, pointed his hand at his nose, and said, "Brother, I am also very greedy. You may not know that I have had many fights with Your Majesty, and every time I have to lift the table and stare. For example, in the Fanyang Trading Center, Your Majesty and I had to fight each other almost every three days. Sometimes, for a few hundred chunks of money, they each looked at each other like roosters fighting..."

Li Chengqian and Li Tai were stunned, and the two guys looked shocked.

Couple, he...

He actually dared to quarrel with his father?

The two boys looked at Li Shimin foolishly and almost asked if Li Yun was lying.

Li Shimin's face was calm and nodded, "Your brother is right. I have argued with him for many times. The emperor valued interests first, and then cared about family affection. Sometimes, under the pressure of interests, the whole difference between relatives is clear, but..."

"It's just that there must be a prerequisite for quarrels and you cannot cross each other's bottom line!"

Li Yun took the conversation and said in a very serious tone: "Once the bottom line is stepped on, there is really no family affection. At that time, relatives turned against each other, only deep hatred, and never interacting with each other is considered light. It is very likely that the relatives will suffer from the enemy and will be happy..."

As he said that, he suddenly bent down and stretched out his hands, one hand, pulled Li Chengqian and Li Tai up, and taught in a gentle voice: "Your mistake is to cross the bottom line, and it is not because of greed for profit that will disappoint Your Majesty. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, greed for land and wealth is a matter of responsibility. This is not only for yourself, but also for the people under your command. However, what you are greedy for is your own land and wealth, which is wrong. You should be greedy for the outside."

Li Shimin suddenly spoke, as if he was making a summary statement, and said seriously: "Although the grassland is large and the land is vast, it is the property of your third aunt, the saint high priest, and it is the private wealth passed to her apprentice to become a dowry. Because with this premise, you cannot fight, otherwise you will cross the bottom line and the family will never be a family anymore. Your elder brother often says a word, saying that people should learn to think from the perspective of others. I will let you think from the perspective of others. What would you do if Linglong came to fight for the Tang Dynasty?"

The two boys blurted out without thinking, "That's sure to break up, it's definitely a battle that will never end..."

Suddenly his face was pale, and he was stunned at the same time.

Li Shimin nodded slowly and sighed, "Linglong comes to fight for the Tang Dynasty, you will never stop, and what do you want to do just now? You want to divide her grassland! The principles in the world are the same. Should Linglong be with you? But did she do this? No matter how angry she is, she didn't do this! She just asked you to call her sister first, borrow her sister's identity and beat you up, and then announced the identity of Jindao Khan, which is to educate you to have a memory increase. From beginning to end, she actually has always been guarding an unbreakable bottom line, that is, you are her relatives..."

The two boys bowed their heads in shame.

After a long time, Li Chengqian seemed to have some understanding, suddenly raised his head carefully, Qiqiai Ai asked, "If, if, I just said, if, if, if, if Jie Li Khan was not dead at the beginning and the grassland belonged to Jie Li's country, then what should I do? Can the grassland still fight?"

Li Shimin laughed loudly, Li Yun also smiled on his face. The two of them spoke almost at the same time, and said to Li Chengqian with encouragement: "Then are you hesitating? If you have any interests, you must get them into your own bowl. In the future, you must inherit the throne of the Tang Dynasty. This is the greed that an emperor must possess. As long as the land and wealth are not from his relatives, they can all be fought for. The more wealth you compete for, the better the people under your command will live."

Li Chengqian felt relieved.

...

Li Shimin felt obviously relieved. The emperor suddenly looked at the sky outside and smiled and said, "It's getting late, and it's almost time before he knew it."

Li Yunchai said and said with a smile, adding, "The whole family is quarreling, and the head is big all day long, and it doesn't matter if it's big. The key is that the belly is a little too hard to hold on."

Li Shimin turned to look at the corner of the room, shouted from afar and asked, "Father, Ziyang Immortal Master, Mr. Qi, how about eating something, how about drinking a drink?"

The Taoist boy did not speak, and the king of Qi people nodded. As the person who was accompanied, Li Yuan stuck his head out and smiled: "Then make some appetizing food, and the whole family gathered together to have a meal. You can eat and talk while you are not delaying the family's discussion."

Li Shimin laughed, turned around and looked at Li Yun, and said, "If you talk about appetizing food, this is the best skill of a stinky brat. Father, you don't know. What your grandson knows best is fat intestines. There are pig elbows, pig trotters, pig heads, pig ears..."

"How come I don't know?" Li Yuan laughed, blushing and said, "Pig-killing vegetables are so beautiful. When I lived in Tai Chi Palace, the guards often went out to buy some to eat."

As he said that, he turned his head slightly, as if asking for advice from Taoist Tong and the King of Qi Ren, he asked with a smile: "What do the two immortal masters think? Why don't we try this pig-killing dish?"

The Taoist boy finally spoke and said slowly: "If I could have a dish of shredded peppers, I could break the rules of thirty years. I haven't eaten meat for a long time, but I miss it a little."

However, Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this and said curiously: "Shredded Chili Pork?"

"I've been ready for a long time!" Li Yun suddenly spoke, and said with a mysterious look on his face: "When it was not dark, I had already told the process to mourn. He personally led a few junior brothers and sisters to slaughter at least three pigs. Whether it's fat intestines or pork heads, it's probably going to be out of the pot soon. As for shredded peppers, Wen Zhongzi brought a lot of shredded peppers overseas. The disciples will cook in person and specialize in stir-frying a dish of shredded peppers."
