His Majesty Li Er lost his beloved chicken, ignored Li Yuanying, and went back to continue indulging in official duties.
Li Yuanying didn't feel sad for the fighting chickens at all, before the chickens were killed in the dining room, he had wandered out of the palace and went straight to Wei Zheng's house to tell Mrs. Pei the good news.
After winter, vegetables and fruits are expensive, and meat is also expensive. Although the Wei family has no shortage of food and drink, they always eat pickles every day.
Li Yuanying hurriedly told Mrs. Pei that His Majesty Li Er would slaughter two chickens and bring them here.
Hearing that Wei Zheng had pissed His Majesty Li Er so angry that he would kill Aiji, Mrs. Pei was a little worried.
In fact, ever since Wei Zheng made his name in the imperial court and His Majesty Li Er began to use Wei Zheng heavily, Mrs. Pei was always afraid that one day she would not be able to wait for her husband.
We must know that Wei Zheng traveled around in the first half of his life and followed several groups of people. Before the Xuanwu Gate incident, Wei Zheng was a member of Prince Yin Li Jiancheng, and he even persuaded Prince Yin to make up his mind to kill His Majesty Li Er, who was still the King of Qin at that time. After the death of Prince Yin, His Majesty Li Er once asked Wei Zheng about this, and Wei Zheng replied frankly: "If Prince Yin had listened to me earlier, this would not be the case."
Wei Zheng is now chasing His Majesty Li Er and scolding him every day, how can Mrs. Pei not be worried? If one day His Majesty Li Er can no longer tolerate Wei Zheng, maybe those things in the past will all be wrong!
Li Yuanying himself is a person who goes to tease the tiger's beard every day, so he can't understand Pei Shi's mood at all. Instead, he happily discussed with Pei Shi how to eat two chickens.
Li Yuanying thinks that if there are not many people, you can hang one of them outside and freeze it to eat slowly. Pick the fat one and chop off the head and feet to make soup. The rest just need to be boiled in plain water and served with some dipping sauce. !
Mrs. Pei responded one by one, and called Wei Shu at the side to buy some ginger and scallions, and the family seemed to have run out.
Wei Shu took the money and wanted to go out, Li Yuanying immediately followed suit. It was very cold outside, even though it wasn't snowing, it made Li Yuanying shiver.
Li Yuanying and Wei Shu talked about the library they will open in the next year: "It's in the West Market, very close! Then you have to come over and give me a warm spot!"
Without him explaining, Wei Shu has already told the origin of the library's name: "The word 'book' comes from the section in "Historical Records" that says 'He Du first entered the collection of books collected by Prime Minister Qin Yushi's Law Order'?"
Li Yuanying said: "That's right!" Someone chattered with Li Yuanying, and he didn't feel the cold any more, and happily praised Wei Shu, "Sister Shu, you are so smart, you can tell when you hear it! Unlike Lao Kong, who still has to ask Why am I called a library, how stupid!"
Wei Shu thought to herself, I'm afraid it's not that Kong Yingda doesn't know, but wants to see if you know. But seeing Li Yuanying so happy, Wei Shu didn't say much, and led Li Yuanying to buy ginger and garlic.
Most of the vendors around knew Wei Shu, and when they saw Wei Shu bringing a young boy in luxurious clothes over, they all curiously asked who it was.
Li Yuanying didn't hold back at all, and followed Wei Shu all the way, calling uncles, uncles, aunts, and sisters-in-law, and also reported his name, saying that his surname was Li, and his name was Yuanying. He was Wei Shu's brother. The first time he came here, he was called by an adult Help Wei Shu to carry food!
Not many people knew the name of the royal family among the people, especially in this area where some poor peasants from outside the city came to the city to sell some of their own products, so it was even less clear that Li Yuanying was the King Teng who was just named by His Majesty Li Er.
Everyone thought that Li Yuanying was a distant relative of Wei Zheng's family, and his family was rich, so he dressed well and looked good.
These stalls sell their own things, and they should go back in the afternoon. Hearing that Li Yuanying's mouth is so sweet, he doesn't have the airs of a wealthy family at all, so many people generously gave Li Yuanying two pieces of ginger or a few pieces of garlic—even Someone gave him two flowers that were picked from the mountains and sold. They looked pretty!
The money Wei Shu brought was not spent, but the two of them returned with full rewards.
Pei thought it was Wei Shu who asked Li Yuanying to spend the money, and gave her a disapproving look.
Wei Shu hurriedly defended herself: "They were all given to us directly, without any money." Wei Shu herself still felt depressed. She usually had to bargain with those street vendors when she ran errands for her grandmother. Going with Li Yuanying today, they gave it away for nothing! There was also a little flower seller who gave him two flowers!
Li Yuanying is usually a ghost, many people will turn their heads away when they see him from a distance, this is the first time he has enjoyed this kind of treatment. Although it was not a valuable thing, Li Yuanying would not touch it normally, but now walking back full of hugs, Li Yuanying felt a feeling that he had never felt before.
Li Yuanying said puzzledly: "I took the first one, and they all stuffed it in!" He put all the things down, and took out the two flowers that still had drops of water, and asked Wei Shu where they could put them.
There was no vase in Wei Zheng's house, so Wei Shu searched for a long time, found a small vinegar jar, filled some water, and put two flowers in it. The vase was vulgar, but the flowers were quite elegant and had a faint fragrance. After playing with it for a while, Li Yuanying and Wei Shu put it aside, and went to the study to write and draw.
When Wei Zheng came back from the Yamen, he smelled the aroma of stewed chicken soup.
Thinking that His Majesty Li Er and Li Yuanying, brothers, actually went to a cockfight, Wei Zheng's expression was not very good. But when he raised the door curtain and saw Li Yuanying and Wei Shu sitting opposite each other and practicing calligraphy, Wei Zheng felt that this child could still be taught, but it was His Majesty Li Er who, as the king of a country, did not lead by example, should be more vigilant!
Wei Shu heard the movement at the door, raised her head and shouted: "Grandfather!"
Li Yuanying also put down his pen, and greeted Wei Zheng obediently. In front of his friends, Li Yuanying still gave Wei Zheng face. Not only did he not call him Old Wei, but he also took the initiative to ask Wei Zheng for advice with the words he had just written.
Wei Zheng took a look at it, and evaluated Li Yuanying objectively. Simply put, he was not strong enough, he was not good at writing, he had no form and bone, and he learned from east to west, but he didn't learn the essence of any of them!
Li Yuanying: "..."
Li Yuanying didn't believe it, he said angrily: "The "Fables of Hanzi" I printed last time was very popular, it can't be so bad!"
Wei Zheng said: "You also said that it is a book for children, so it is naturally popular with children. Do you like Confucius Jijiu?"
Li Yuanying refused to admit it: "That's old Kong who has no vision! He has a prejudice against "Hanzi"!"
The old god Wei Zheng was urging him: "That means your book is not good enough for Kong Jijiu to let go of his prejudice."
Li Yuanying picked up his own handwriting to look at, then went to get Wei Shu's, and found that Wei Shu was younger than him, but his handwriting was much better than his. Although he has also practiced calligraphy in the past six months, he doesn't practice hard. At most, he just writes a little more than before. In terms of diligence, he can't compare with anyone else!
Li Yuanying said stiffly: "I don't want him to like it." Kong Yingda has always disliked him, and it's not just a day or two!
Wei Zheng accepted it as soon as he saw it, and didn't continue to provoke him.
At this time, the food was ready, and Mrs. Pei called them out for dinner.
As soon as food was mentioned, Li Yuanying became happy again, and took Wei Shu out to sit on both sides, and solved His Majesty Li Er's favorite chicken!
As the evening approached, Li Yuanying was going back to the palace, because at sunset, the city gates, city gates, and square gates were all supposed to be closed, and the whole city entered a curfew period, and no one was allowed to come in and out and walk around at will.
Li Yuanying heard from Wei Shu that someone was accidentally stranded in the neighborhood before the curfew, and had to stay in the neighborhood to find an inn for the night before returning home! Therefore, the curfew outside the palace is very strict!
It was still early when Li Yuanying returned to the palace. He was reminiscing about the delicious chicken soup just now, and couldn't help but feel very poetic. He tore a piece of paper and wrote "Ode to the Rooster" for His Majesty Li Er. The whole poem is very mouth-watering, to the effect that the chicken was so mighty and cute when it was alive, and it still tastes so good after death.
His Majesty Li Er had worked hard all day, and at night he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was thinking about which concubine he would go to relax, but someone said that Li Yuanying had sent someone to present a poem to him.
His Majesty Li Er was quite surprised, and said to the left and right: "It's really the sun coming out from the west, that kid can write poems!" He ordered someone to bring the poems up for him to see.
After reading the poem, His Majesty Li Er's face suddenly turned dark.
His Majesty Li Er lived an indulgent and reckless life when he was a teenager. He fought battles when he was on a horse, and drank wine when he got off his horse. He could also hunt and make friends when he was free. As a result, after ascension to the throne, even small hobbies will be criticized. With Wei Zheng as a demonstration, he wants to go hunting and someone dares to stop him. If he wants to do something, he has to consider whether there will be any adverse effects.
If he had remembered that Wei Zheng was on duty, His Majesty Li Er would not have gone to a cockfight with Li Yuanying, and the chicken he had carefully reared would have died in vain. However, Li Yuanying is too heartless, even if he killed a chicken, he would run to eat it! He ate it as soon as he ate it, and even wrote a poem to anger him!
His Majesty Li Er yelled: "This bastard boy! This bastard boy!!!"
Left and right are silent.
After His Majesty Li Er finished cursing, he felt a little more at ease. After a little thought, His Majesty Li Er came up with a way to deal with Li Yuanying. He snorted coldly, and ordered the left and right: "Go and inform the dining room. From tomorrow onwards, only chicken food will be delivered to that boy, and no other dishes will be allowed!"
He likes to eat so much, he let that bastard eat it every day!
Li Yuanying didn't know that His Majesty Li Er had thought of a bad way to deal with him, so he fell asleep happily. As a result, early the next morning, the dining room brought him chicken porridge, at noon, the dining room brought him stewed chicken, roasted chicken legs, etc., and at night, the dining room brought him stewed chicken soup. Although the dishes are different and every meal is as rich as usual, every dish has something to do with chicken! The snacks were replaced with marinated chicken wings and chicken biscuits!
Li Yuanying felt something was wrong, so he sent someone to ask the dining room why this happened, but the answer he got was an order from His Majesty Li Er!
For the first two days, Li Yuanying felt that His Majesty Li Er's revenge was not terrible at all, and he ate it with gusto.
After a few days, he found that he had to continue eating the "whole chicken feast", and even Liu Baolin was forbidden to cook for him alone. Li Yuanying couldn't hold it anymore, and went to complain to Wei Zheng, saying that His Majesty Li Er had abused his younger brother!
What do children like, don't they just like to eat! Now His Majesty Li Er actually let him eat the whole chicken feast every day, it was too much, Li Yuanying became more and more wronged as he talked, and cried with Wei Zheng on the spot.
When Wei Zheng heard this, His Majesty Li Er actually avenged his own private revenge by treating his younger brother like this for a chicken! Wei Zheng was furious immediately, and asked Li Yuanying to go back first, rolled up his sleeves and began to write the memorial, and sprayed the entire memorial of Majesty Li Er on the line!
Recently, His Majesty Li Er is in a very good mood, because according to the reports from the people below, Li Yuanying has already eaten the whole chicken banquet to the point of blowing his hair. Very good, this effect is what I want!
His Majesty Li Er was waiting for the bad brother to come to beg him, but he didn't expect that the bad brother didn't wait, but was sprayed by Wei Zheng for half an hour when he went to court.
His Majesty Li Er was so furious at being scolded that he couldn't even go to court, so he just flung his sleeves and left.
The courtiers looked at each other.
Changsun Wuji glanced at Wei Zheng helplessly, and trotted to chase in the direction His Majesty Li Er left.
The author has something to say:
Little Prince: A murder caused by a chicken! Oh no, two!
