In a feudal society where imperial power is supreme, the throne is the most majestic and supreme thing.
Li Xuan's thinking like kicking the throne like a football is far from the ancients, and Li Yi feels deeply guilty.
Thinking of Li Han's obsession with arithmetic, he looked exactly like him. As his husband, Li Yi realized that his sin was even deeper.
Li Xuan is still young now, and his ideas are too idealistic and unrealistic. After two years, he will understand that the throne is not something he can just give up if he wants, and he can give it to whoever he wants.
Li Han can be the dean of the school of calculation and a cook, but he is unlikely to be an emperor.
At least that's what Li Yi thought when eating his grilled fish.
After handing the fish with the bones removed to Yongning and Shouning, Li Han walked over, looked at Li Xuan in the distance, and asked hesitantly, "Sir, what were you talking about with Brother Huang just now?"
Li Yi picked up a piece of fish and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Han shook his head and said, "It's nothing... just a bad feeling."
Nowadays, the child's desire to survive is really too strong. Li Yi looked at him, shook his head, and said, "We didn't talk about anything, don't think too much, let's go grill a fish..."
…
Furong Garden has a quiet environment and pleasant scenery. Apart from Qujiang Bieyuan, the two most beautiful royal gardens in Kyoto, the Li family is not far from these two places. When He Ruyi returns home, he doesn't even need to take a carriage.
Li Yi hugged Li Duan who had already fallen asleep, Ruyi turned her head, looked at him and asked, "Do you think Duan'er likes Xiao Rui very much?"
Such a young child actually doesn't know what he likes or not at all, it's just that the two children have been playing together for a long time and are used to it.
If it were a kitten or a puppy, he would still like it.
Li Yi looked at her and asked, "Did the empress and the lady say something?"
Ruyi smiled, nodded and said: "She said that Duan'er and Xiaorui were born on the same day, which is a fate cultivated in the previous life. If they can grow up together like this, they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. Why don't we make a marriage now..."
Because of his own experience, Li Yi hated things like finger pulp marriage or baby kissing. He shook his head and said, "It's up to them in the future. We'd better not interfere too much."
Ruyi obviously likes Xiaorui very much. After thinking about it, she said, "But Xiaorui is a princess. Many people will definitely want to marry the royal family. If Duan'er likes her, she will give it to someone else..."
"Then grab it!" Li Yi said without hesitation: "My wife is the best at stealing people..."
Ruyi took Li Duan from his arms, and said lightly: "I have something to discuss with my sister Zui Mo, my husband will sleep in the study tonight..."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "Don't, there is something to discuss, let's go together..."
Ruyi looked at him and asked, "Sister Zuimo and I are going to discuss all night, does my husband want to come together too?"
"If you don't mind..." Li Yi looked at the smile on Ruyi's face, waved his hands, and said, "Forget it, that bed is too small for three people..."
Originally planned to marry Zui Mo back at the beginning of the year, because the late emperor died, so the time could only be postponed. Now, although the one-month period has passed, there are no auspicious days in a short period of time. Of course, there are more important reasons , because he thought that the interval between the two events was too short, and he felt uneasy.
It is gratifying that Zui Mo can understand this, and comfort him in turn, how lucky he is in this life to meet these women...
Thinking about it, this may be God’s compensation for his previous life. After all, when he went to the library with the idea of learning, he not only encountered a neuropathy who would repay his kindness, but also encountered an unimaginable fire—God owed him too much.
At the gate of Li's mansion, Li Yi unexpectedly saw a person.
The concierge of the Li family said politely to a young man: "My lord, my Lord Hou and his wife have gone out, and I don't know when they will come back. Why don't you come back tomorrow, or enter the mansion first?"
The young man cupped his hands and said, "If that's the case, I'll come back another day."
"There's no need for another day." Li Yi walked over, patted Jiang Zian on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Brother Jiang, what's the matter, go in and talk..."
The expression on Jiang Zian's face immediately became respectful: "Lord Li..."
…
In the mansion, the servant girl served good tea, Li Yi looked at Jiang Zian and asked with a smile: "Brother Zi'an should be leaving soon, right?"
"Yes, the appointment of the Ministry of Officials has come down, and I will leave tomorrow." Jiang Zian nodded, stood up suddenly, bowed deeply to Li Yi, and said, "Thank you, Master Li, for saving me!" Jiang Zian said.
The old friend almost pushed him into the abyss, and the old enemy not only rescued him from prison, but also gave him a bright career. At this moment, standing in front of Li Yi, his heart was churning. self made.
Li Yi got up and helped him up, and said: "Go to Qing'an Mansion, Brother Jiang, be careful in everything, Anxi County is also your hometown, you must manage it well in the future, and don't let your parents down."
Jiang Zi'an looked solemn, bowed and said, "Zian will live up to Mr. Li's trust."
Li Yi smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, sit down..."
After Jiang Zian was seated, he cupped his hands again and said, "I have offended you a lot in the past, Mr. Li, regardless of past suspicions, Jiang, Jiang..."
"Don't mention the past..." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "How can we have no wine when old friends gather together, come here, bring wine!"
The cook of the Li family moved very quickly, within a quarter of an hour, there was a jar of fine wine and several dishes of appetizers on the table.
Li Yi once made up his mind not to drink anymore, but he didn't stick to it for long. During this time, all the wine fights with Miss Liu Er and Mingzhu ended in failure, but his drinking capacity has greatly improved.
Jiang Zian was very restrained at first, but after a few glasses of wine, he gradually became confused.
"Master Li, Brother Li, you really think of me, Jiang Zian, as a friend..."
"That's natural. I, Li Yi, don't have many friends. You, Jiang Zian, are one of them. Don't forget, we have a lifelong friendship..."
"Since we are friends, I have to say something..." Jiang Zi'an looked at him with drunken eyes, dissatisfied, and said, "Miss Ruoqing is such a good girl, even if she is some kind of empress, don't go to her Did you, you, where did you go when you scolded those Jinshi in the Prince Ning's Mansion..."
Li Yi slapped him on the head and cursed: "At this time, you still dare to miss my Ruoqing?"
"I didn't think about it!" Jiang Zian blushed, stared at him, and said, "I just think that what you did is not like a man..."
"I don't look like a man..." Li Yi glanced at Jiang Zian, embraced the woman pouring wine for him, and said, "Ruoqing, tell him, do I look like a man..."
Jiang Zian was shocked: "Ah, you, you are Miss Ruoqing..."
…
At the door, hearing the man's hearty laughter from inside the room, Zui Mo lowered his head, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.
Although he was smiling, it didn't mean he was really that happy. If he was really happy, he didn't have to drink anymore.
He is not happy, she is also difficult to smile.
Ruyi walked up to her, glanced into the room, and said in a low voice: "After the late emperor left, Mr. Xiang didn't have many enemies, nor many friends..."
"He once said that after the late emperor left, no one would be able to shield them from the wind and rain..." Zui Mo looked at the figure in the room, shook his head and said, "In the current capital, who can stir up the wind and rain, they respect you He, fears him, fears him, he actually doesn't like this..."
Ruyi took her hand, shook her head and said, "My husband has a side, we don't even understand."
Jiang Zian soon became drunk, and was helped by the servants of the Li family to rest in the guest room. Li Yi leaned on the chair and took a nap for a while. When he opened his eyes, he saw an old face full of wrinkles.
Since His Majesty passed away, he hadn't seen this old face for a long time.
