Several princes and princesses were eating noisy inside, and those who listened were upset and couldn't reprimand them. Li Yijing got rid of his hands and walked into the yard with a hint of doubt in his heart.
The old emperor asked him to enter the palace, it wasn't really just for him to cook, right
At this time, the eunuch stepped forward and said with a smile: "Li Xianzi, the court is already gone, follow me to see your majesty."
Sure enough, although he was very free, the emperor should not be so free, Li Yi also wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the old emperor's gourd.
The feminine-looking eunuch took out a sign from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yi, saying, "Li Xianzi, you have kept this sign. This is the certificate for entering the palace. Only with it can you enter and leave the palace freely."
Li Yi took the shining sign, his hands sank slightly, and he couldn't help but wonder, this thing is actually made of gold
As expected of the royal family, with such a generous shot, a waist card is made of pure gold, if there are a few more dollars, wouldn't it be rich
At this time, most of his attention was on the gold medallion, but he didn't notice that the eunuch at the side saw the golden waistplate and bent his back even deeper.
The security of the palace is strict, and his name, identity, and physical features are clearly engraved on the waist card. The possibility of counterfeiting is too small.
Putting away the waist card, he turned around and saw the flattering smile on the eunuch's face. Li Yi frowned and opened his mouth to say something, only to remember that he didn't know the eunuch's name yet.
"May I have your name?"
The eunuch smiled and said, "Your lord, just call the villain Wei Zhong."
"Wei Zhong?" Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "Who are you, Wei Zhongxian?"
The eunuch looked puzzled, then shook his head and said, "Wei Zhongxian..., I've never heard of it."
Li Yi was amused in his heart. Even if they were in the same time and space, the difference between the two people would be hundreds of thousands of years, not to mention that they were in different worlds, so how could they be connected.
"Wei Zhong..."
"What is your lord's order?"
Looking at the eunuch's soft smile, Li Yi couldn't help but shuddered, his skin got goosebumps, and he said, "From now on, don't laugh in front of me!"
Wei Zhong: "—"
…
…
The imperial palace is really huge. Various palaces that Li Yi has never heard of emerge in endlessly. There are countless arches and long corridors. If Wei Zhong is not leading him, he will definitely get lost alone.
After going around for about a quarter of an hour, the field of vision suddenly widened.
The occasion to meet the old emperor was not grand at all, not even in a palace or a study, walking into a garden full of evergreen trees, passing between two teams of stern-faced guards, and going up to a pavilion, I saw Emperor Jing in a yellow robe.
Compared with when he was in Prince Ning's Mansion, Emperor Jing looked even worse, but he had more smiles on his face, and he was obviously in a good mood.
"Li Yi, the son of Chang'an County, see Your Majesty!" Seeing these emperors and concubines, there is one thing that is particularly bad. They have to kneel at every turn. The bluestone slabs in the pavilion are so expensive that they are panicking. Fortunately, Li Yi's knees are only slightly touched. After touching it, Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be polite, just get up."
Emperor Jing is a kind person. Although he is the king of a country, at least in Li Yi's view, he will not put a lot of pressure on people when facing him.
Emperor Jing sat on a padded stone bench, casually pointed to the seat opposite, and said, "Sit!"
There must be monsters when things go wrong, and the king of a country should look a little majestic and be so polite-Li Yi is really not used to it.
Could it be that as soon as he sat down, a bunch of guards jumped out from the side, drew their knives and pointed at him, trying to punish him for a crime of disrespect
Emperor Jing looked at him and said with a smile: "Why, that Li Xiucai who dared to call 'fart' in front of me, now dare not even sit down?"
Li Yi thought to himself, if he had known that he was Emperor Jingguo back then, he would have been hiding as far away as possible, and he would never have invited him to eat that cake in the spirit of sharing, and what happened today would never have happened.
It's all—that pastry's fault.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After the old emperor said that, Li Yi had no choice but to sit down.
The scene in front of me is very familiar. It seems that when the two met, it was the same environment. Everything today originated from the secret garden of Prince Ning's Mansion, from that sinful pastry...
"Try this porridge with white fungus and lotus seeds, and look at the royal chef in the palace. How does it compare to Prince Ning's Mansion?" Seeing Li Yi sitting down, Emperor Jing pointed to the table in front of Li Yi and said.
Li Yi felt a little drummed in his heart. This is not right. Are all emperors in feudal society like this
Could it be that he called himself into the palace this time just to treat him to dinner
As the saying goes, companions are like companions to tigers, shouldn’t the emperor kill the whole family and the nine clans at a single word, and pull out and behead anyone who doesn’t like it—what kind of mutant is this kind of hospitable uncle
He lowered his head to look at the food on the table, the aroma was tangy, if he hadn't been full just now, he would have whetted his appetite just by smelling it.
But the problem is, I ate so much just now, I can't eat it now!
Standing outside the pavilion, Wei Zhong kept his head down, but his attention was always on the pavilion.
His face was pale at the moment, his calves were trembling, and he racked his brains to recall whether he had offended Li Xianzi in any way today, and if so, he would try his best to save it...
By the way, Li Xianzi doesn't seem to like him laughing, and in the future, he will never laugh in front of him!
Emperors are all moody animals. Who knows if he is smiling now and will turn his face in the next moment, Li Yi had no choice but to hold up the white fungus and lotus seed porridge in front of him, and took a sip. The porridge was delicious, really delicious, but He drank more than half of Her Royal Highness's white fungus and lotus seed soup just now, and ate a plate of fried rice with eggs. He couldn't drink any more delicious porridge.
Not to mention - white fungus and lotus seed porridge!
"How is it?" Emperor Jing asked with a smile.
"The heat is just right." Li Yi felt bitter in his heart, but he had to keep a smile on his face.
Emperor Jing seemed to be in a good mood, so he picked up his chopsticks and started eating. He drank two bowls of porridge in a row, and Li Yi, who was looking across from him, was dumbfounded.
A smile appeared on the face of the old man standing behind Emperor Jing. At this time, His Majesty does not have any burden on his body, just like that time in Prince Ning's Mansion.
Horseshoes, God's punishment, including a sentence he said unintentionally, are deeply rooted in the emperor's heart. The boy opposite is really a guy who is good at performing miracles.
His Majesty once said, "Li Yi alone is worth thousands of troops." This sentence seems to be exaggerated, but Changde sees everything he does. He is like a lucky star. He was always able to solve His Majesty's problems in a timely manner, especially this time in the battle of defending the frontier, which was the greatest achievement His Majesty has made since his reign.
General Xu Dingyuan highly praised "Heaven's Punishment" in his secret letter, and almost attributed all his military achievements to Heaven's Punishment. The achievement of expanding the land is celebrated by the whole country. His Majesty's prestige in the court has reached the peak of more than ten years. For the first time in the past ten years, in the struggle with the Qi State, he has gained the initiative, which will definitely be recorded in the annals of history forever...
