Views:

After Li Yuanying finished what he wanted to say, he didn't stay any longer, got up and walked out of the cell, and ordered the jailer to come forward and lock the cell door again.

He led Dai Ting outside, and only when he reached the long and narrow corridor of the prison, he saw a familiar figure standing there with his back behind him, who seemed to be standing there just by chance thinking about something, and seemed to be waiting for him.

Li Yuanying was startled, and stopped in his footsteps, but the man turned around and looked at him with deep and deep eyes, whoever it was, His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er originally wanted to see Hou Junji, an old friend, in person, but he didn't expect to hear a familiar voice coming from inside before he got close.

It was his younger brother Li Yuanying who was talking to Hou Junji.

His Majesty Li Er stared fixedly at Li Yuanying, and like Hou Junji, he seemed to be meeting this younger brother for the first time.

The sky outside was dusky, and the golden sunset glow came in from the small window in the corridor and fell on the open space between the two brothers. The atmosphere was too weird, and the left and right were silent, not daring to step forward to salute, and rashly break the silence at the moment.

Li Yuanying only paused for a moment, then ran to His Majesty Li Er's side, took His Majesty Li Er's hand and dragged His Majesty Li Er out, saying: "It's getting dark, the palace gate will be locked soon, Let's go back quickly."

His Majesty Li Er came here secretly, he waved his hand to signal others not to disturb others by saluting, and he followed Li Yuanying through the narrow aisle.

Walking outside the prison, I saw clouds all over the sky dyed the sky red.

Li Yuanying quietly held His Majesty Li Er's hand. His Majesty Li Er didn't speak, and neither did he.

His Majesty Li Er didn't stop until he entered the palace gate and walked through the long stone road, and looked at Li Yuanying who was silent and rarely quiet. He looked at Li Yuanying: "Why did you think of going to prison?"

Li Yuanying said: "I heard from Dai Ting that Lao Hou was imprisoned, so I wanted to go and have a look. Anyway, I have nothing to do."

His Majesty Li Er said: "Nothing to do? Kong Qing said, you haven't gone to the lecture hall for several days, do you think you have learned enough?"

Li Yuanying said honestly: "I think I'm good at learning by myself. If I don't understand, I can go to the teacher and Lao Wei for advice. It's better than just sitting and listening to lectures every day." This way everyone can relax and don't have to look at each other.

His Majesty Li Er looked at him.

Li Yuanying asked: "Brother Huang, you heard what I said just now."

His Majesty Li Er said indifferently: "I heard everything."

If it wasn't for coincidence that he wanted to go to see Hou Junji in disguise, he wouldn't have heard Li Yuanying's words. This kid looks like he's messing around, but he's actually more slippery than anyone else, so he won't show his little tail later. If he didn't go today, would Hou Junji tell him these words? Hou Junji would not, even if Hou Junji listened to Li Yuanying's words, he would not speak well of Li Yuanying in front of him.

There are not many people in this world like Li Yuanying, who think about this and that, and hope everyone is well. Everyone has selfish desires, and with selfish desires, one has a position, and with one's position, one acts with bias. There is no possibility of perfection and goodness for everyone in the world.

His Majesty Li Er could see this clearly.

Li Yuanying was looked at by His Majesty Li Er's gloomy gaze, and was quiet for a while, still holding on to His Majesty Li Er's hand. He said: "The emperor's sister-in-law once told me that the crown prince and King Jin have too many uncles, and she wanted me to be the uncle of Chengqian and Jinu." Li Yuanying looked directly at His Majesty Li Er, "I think 'God Khan has too many younger brothers, I should be Li Shimin's younger brother."

His Majesty Li Er scolded: "You kid is getting more and more presumptuous!"

Is Li Shimin also his name

After Li Yuanying finished speaking, he let go of his hand, and said to His Majesty Li Er, "My mother should be in a hurry, I have to go back first, brother, please go slowly." He ran away, for fear that His Majesty Li Er would talk to him again.

This kind of talk sounds disgusting, Li Yuanying doesn't like to say it, if he hadn't happened to be bumped into by His Majesty Li Er, he would definitely not talk about it.

Manly man, do you still need to talk to others when you do what you should do

His Majesty Li Er stood on the spot and watched Li Yuanying run away. After a while, he said to the left and right who had lit the lanterns: "This guy's words are very nice, do I care?"

Looking at each other from left to right, they both saw the smiles in each other's eyes, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is rare."

His Majesty Li Er glared at them, and after staring at them, he also laughed, and the boredom of the two days was swept away. Such a little one, who keeps saying "not to be Khan's younger brother, but to be Li Shimin's younger brother", is quite courageous!

However, this heart is as he pleases, broad! Hou Junji bit him during the day, and he was still willing to say something like that to Hou Junji, so it was obvious that he didn't just say something nice.

During the court meeting on the second day, the courtiers were surprised to find that His Majesty Li Er seemed to be in a good mood, not at all angry and bored as in the previous two days. Everyone impeached Hou Junji again and he even nodded to show that he was right.

The person who should be sprayed has finished spraying, and then it is the turn of the defense. The representative is Zhongshu Shilang Cen Wenwen. He stated Hou Junji's achievements one by one. , He should not be humiliated in prison.

Then, someone presented Hou Junji's self-examination written overnight. Hou Junji said that he did not do this properly, which caused adverse effects both internally and externally. Power and so on.

The words are all clichés, but they sound good, and it can be regarded as a good step for the court council that has been arguing for several days. In terms of merit, it must be meritorious. There are many uncontrollable changes in the march. It is absolutely impossible for His Majesty Li Er to kill Hou Junji for this matter.

Everyone looked at each other and stopped playing, and went down the steps one after another.

His Majesty Li Er ordered someone to release Hou Junji, which was a troublesome matter.

In any case, this is the land of a country. Although it is difficult to hold such a planned banquet, His Majesty Li Er still called a few confidant officials to hold a banquet to celebrate.

Li Yuanying was also invited because he wanted to produce good wine and beauties. He thought that the little emperor's grandson Li Xiang didn't go out of the palace with him last time to see the beauty of Gaochang, he ran to meet his eldest nephew early in the morning, and urged Li Chengqian to take Li Xiang with him.

Although Li Chengqian felt that it was inappropriate to take Li Xiang along without permission, in the end he was still no match for Li Xiang's stubbornness in holding Li Yuanying's thigh tightly and not letting go.

Seeing Li Chengqian nod his head, Li Yuanying picked up Li Xiang and ran out.

Li Xiang was not afraid of being carried high, and he laughed happily, not missing Yeye and A Niang who were getting farther and farther away from him.

The concubine tidied up the jade pendant on Li Chengqian's waist, and said, "Uncle Yao is quite strong, and it was a bit difficult for me to hold the elephant, but he picked it up with ease."

Li Chengqian said: "He has loved to climb trees and over walls to play with a slingshot since he was a child. He is used to being wild, so of course he has great strength."

Li Yuanying, who is used to being wild, carried Li Xiang on his back and ran to look for His Majesty Li Er. His Majesty Li Er saw him coming with his grandson on his back. He was really afraid that he would throw his grandson, so he went up and pulled Li Xiang off Li Yuanying's shoulders. .

Li Xiang had played with Li Yuanying a lot, and he was not afraid of His Majesty Li Er anymore. He sat down on His Majesty Li Er's lap with his little buttocks, and yelled softly, "Zuzu."

His Majesty Li Er gave Li Yuanying a sidelong glance, patted Li Xiang's buttocks and said, "Don't make trouble with you, you will cry if you fall."

Li Xiang boldly retorted: "You don't fall."

Yaoyao didn't throw him!

With the wholehearted trust of his nephew and grandson, Li Yuanying smiled complacently.

After Li Chengqian chased them over, His Majesty Li Er led them to a banquet.

Civil servants include Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, etc. Military generals include Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Zhijie, Li Jing, etc. Hou Junji and Xue Wanjun, who pacified Gaochang, will certainly not be absent. When His Majesty Li Er arrives, they all stand up to greet each other Welcome, it's very lively just looking at it.

His Majesty Li Er signaled them to sit down, and let Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian sit on either side of him. Li Yuanying appeared abruptly on this occasion, but he didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and coaxed Li Xiang to his side to concentrate on teasing his nephew. When someone came to pour wine for him, he handed the wine glass to Li Xiang and coaxed, "This is delicious, try it if you don't believe me."

Li Xiang was convinced, and opened his mouth to lick the wine Li Yuanying handed to him.

As soon as the wine was on his tongue, Li Xiang's whole face wrinkled into a ball, and he was choked by the smell of wine coming from his nose. How could the child bear this grievance, and cried out on the spot: "It's not good, it's a lie!"

His Majesty Li Er was toasting with his civil and military confidants, the sudden cry made the great atmosphere quiet down instantly.

His Majesty Li Er turned his head and saw what Li Yuanying had done. He scolded: "You bastard, put down the wine for me!"

Li Yuanying was even more proud: "Brother Huang, you also lied to me to drink when I was a child. This is called 'a gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late'." Brother Huang lied to him, he lied to his grandson, even!

His Majesty Li Er asked someone to remove the wine from Li Yuanying's side.

Li Xiang didn't hold grudges like his Yaoyao. After crying for a while, he was coaxed by Li Yuanying and stuck back. His Majesty Li Er and Li Chengqian called him and he didn't leave.

Then the adults played with the adults, and the children played with the children, and the atmosphere returned to the original harmony.

After the dancer came on stage, Li Yuanying coaxed Li Xiang to go down and dance with her, saying that his son and aunt had already learned it, and asked him to learn it too. Li Xiang believed it, and the little one who was so big ran out, followed the dancers and danced like a model, looking very funny, His Majesty Li Er was amused by him, clapped his hands, and called Wei Zheng and the others to get up and move too .

In the Sui Dynasty, dancing and dancing were the highest etiquette for courtiers to the king. They would perform dancing and dancing without saying a word on formal or informal occasions such as going to court, leaving a teacher, banquets, hunting, calling and accepting orders. After the Taishanghuang established the country, the dance ceremony continued. The Taishanghuang even played the pipa and danced with his officials from time to time.

Therefore, dancing is the basic skill of being an official. His Majesty Li Er has already spoken, so Wei Zheng and others will naturally not just sit and move to the exotic music.

It wasn't until the banquet was here that everyone really let go. His Majesty Li Er also picked up Li Xiang and raised him up to tease him. Li Xiang was not afraid at all, and laughed happily along with His Majesty Li Er.

As for whether the wine Li Yuanying took away was the best, and whether the beauties he took away were the most beautiful, no one was going to pursue it anymore.

His Majesty Li Er brought Li Yuanying to the banquet for obvious reasons: this younger brother has been registered with him for everything he does, and he, as the elder brother, just indulges this younger brother!

Those Gaochang people on the left and right came back with Li Yuanying's people voluntarily, and the things were also given to Li Yuanying voluntarily, so what can they say? Let's drink and dance happily!

The author has something to say:

Little prince: Tian Khan has too many younger brothers, I will be Li Shimin's younger brother!

His Majesty Li Er: What should I do if I am a little moved

Little Prince: In this way, I am the most special, and I can do whatever I want!

His Majesty Li Er:? ? ? ?

His Majesty Li Er: Get out!
