It can't be blamed for Yan Lide's vigilance. When the eldest son-in-law Li Tai said that this kid never does good things and is full of bad things, he also said that Li Yuanying is a bad guy, staring at his father, staring at his teacher, and recently he was bullying his son. He felt uncomfortable when he heard his son say, "When will Yaoyao come to play?" Secondly, another son-in-law, Tang Jiahui, said that this kid is not a good guy. Turn the prince around.

That's right, Yan Lide's eldest son-in-law is Li Tai, and the other son-in-law is the prince's confidant.

Tang Jiahui and Li Jing's son Li Dejian are both Li Chengqian's people, but the two parents had a little grudge, and they don't like to see each other in this generation.

The main reason is that when Li Jing was begging for mercy when fighting the Eastern Turks, His Majesty Li Er saw that the momentum was good, so he sent Tang Jiahui's father Tang Jian to go to the Turks for peace talks. As a result, Tang Jian, the envoy of the peace talks who left with a festival, was still hot in his buttocks. Li Jing felt that the peace talks were meaningless.

As for the life and death of Tang Jian, the envoy, Li Jing didn't care, he just thought he sacrificed for the Great Tang to open up the territory~ At that time, Tang Jian had a great life, and he didn't die, but he couldn't pursue it. credit. Not only can Tang Jian not swear, but he also has to show his magnanimity and benevolence, what else should he do? Can His Majesty Li Er be in a dilemma

The father's generation maintains a face-saving harmony, but the son's generation secretly fights but no one can criticize him. Isn't it okay for people to complain about their father's injustice

Li Yuanying and Li Dejian had a little friendship, and even hired a doctor for Li Dejian's mother. Tang Jiahui felt a little pissed, and mentioned that Li Yuanying would inevitably have a few words with his father-in-law.

Therefore, in Yan Lide's place, besides the rumored "little devil king since childhood", Li Yuanying added the label of "become a devil king when he grows up".

Be vigilant, be vigilant, everyone has arrived at the door, Yan Lide still asks Li Yuanying to come in and talk.

They are all the footholds of the palace, there are no special furnishings in the house, and Yan Lide is not that interested in doing it. After Li Yuanying entered the room, he scanned around quietly, but didn't see anything interesting, so he sat down on the seat Yan Lide reserved for him.

Yan Lide is only forty-six years old this year, not much older than His Majesty Li Er, and the long beard on his chin is still black and shiny. He took the initiative to speak: "Your Highness, do you have something to look for?"

Li Yuanying nodded hastily: "Yes, yes." He told Yan Lide that His Majesty Li Er had given him the Xiangcheng Palace, and asked, "I heard that Dayan, you don't have to go to the yamen for the time being. Don't think about how to renovate the Xiangcheng Palace with me. Otherwise, I heard from Lao Wei that they plan to split the Xiangcheng Palace to the common people, what a waste!"

Naturally, Yan Lide also heard about His Majesty Li Er's decision from Yan Liben, and he was feeling depressed. Hearing Li Yuanying's words that there was still a turning point, he suddenly regained his energy.

Yan Lide's family background is not bad, and he thinks his knowledge is not bad. During his tenure as a master craftsman, he has created many masterpieces that satisfy himself and others. His wife comes from a famous family, and his children are smart and sensible. Yes, he felt uncomfortable when such a failure in Xiangcheng Palace suddenly appeared!

Yan Lide asked someone to bring tea to Li Yuanying, and they talked with Li Yuanying in detail.

While chatting, Li Yuanying also understood why Xiangcheng Palace had such a mess. Yan Lide's background determined that he could design the building beautifully. Everyone praised him, but sometimes he pursued art too much. On the contrary, it tries to let the people who live in it make way for the art of architecture.

If you choose a good place for him to build or renovate, he can do it very well. If you let him come and choose a place by himself, he will definitely choose a good-looking one. Look around the Xiangcheng Palace. The lush vegetation, mountains and rivers, it is a good place at first glance. Ah, it must be great to build!

It's a pity that His Majesty Li Er is not the kind of owner who will give way to architectural art. The poisonous snake even picked the servants around the accompanying concubine to bite, which directly caused His Majesty Li Er, the father of Party A, to be furious , Party B must be held accountable!

This actually gave Li Yuanying a big deal for nothing.

Li Yuanying and Yan Lide shared their preliminary ideas: "I got a lot of camels from Gaochang here, and I am worried that there will not be enough for them to raise anywhere. The grass around Xiangcheng Palace grows so well, I can just send them there. Also, there are some elephants raised in Chengqian, and they can also be taken over. The people who are good at raising elephants are all from the south, and they have experience in controlling snakes and insects. I called them over to brainstorm. Think, there is always a way to solve the problem of snakes, rats and ants."

Yan Lide nodded, feeling that Li Yuanying's idea was feasible.

Li Yuanying said: "When the time comes, we will raise more cattle and horses. The caravans going to Tubo and Turks will gather here to rest. Those who go south will lead elephants, and those who go west and north will lead cattle, horses and camels. There is no need to squeeze them all to Chang'an. Since the camels The elephants, cows and horses are all raised, and we can raise other things, like eagles that can catch snakes, we can also raise eagles." The more he talked, the happier he was, and he further perfected his ideas, "I will ask people to post notices later. I want everyone in the world who is good at domestication to go to Xiangcheng Palace. If anyone can come up with an effective breeding method, I will reward them with a lot of money. People in the world who want to learn the method of domestication can also go to Xiangcheng Palace. Ask for advice from Chenggong. In this way, when everyone has spare capacity, they can raise some meat, poultry and livestock to feed their children! I heard that many children have never eaten meat from birth to their teens, and the family wants to raise meat. I am afraid that I will lose money if I order meat, poultry and livestock, so I simply don’t think about it, if someone teaches them, maybe their family will be willing to raise it.”

Yan Lide originally thought that Li Yuanying just wanted to raise some camels and elephants for fun, but he didn't expect him to say such a thing later.

Yan Lide was also a little excited when he thought that if this matter really came true, not only would the Xiangcheng Palace not be abandoned, but it would also become a "breeding base" that would be of great benefit to the country and the people. With his heart surging, Yan Lide responded quickly: "Your Highness's move is very kind, and Yan is willing to carry out this matter with His Highness!"

Someone was willing to play with him, Li Yuanying was very happy, and he took Yan Lide's hand and said happily: "That's great, I'll write a letter to Chengqian and ask him to lend me Yang Liu and the elephant, Dong Xiaoyi was transferred to take charge of this matter. When everyone is here, I will immediately write a notice and ask people to post it all over Luoyang City. When the time comes, Dayan, you must help me bring Dong Xiaoyi!"

Only then did Yan Lide notice that he called him "Da Yan", and his face twitched. It's useless to entangle with the address now, let him go! Yan Lide said: "If necessary, it's okay for Yan to send people and money."

After Li Yuanying visited Yan Lide, he was very satisfied with the results of the trip, and even went to praise Yan Lide with His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er was praised by Li Yuanying when he came back, thinking that Yan Lide bought Li Yuanying with something good, but after asking, he found out that it was Yan Lide who agreed to contribute money and efforts to renovate the Xiangcheng Palace with him. His Majesty Li Er said: "Do you have an idea?"

Li Yuanying then told His Majesty Li Er the bold idea he had pondered. Some people are afraid of snakes, but there are also people who are not afraid of snakes. He once heard from Yang Liu, who raised elephants, that some people in the south like snakes very much. If they catch them, they can eat meat as a meal. The stewed soup is very good, and the grilled snake meat is also good. It's just that the poisonous snake is a bit troublesome, so be careful not to be bitten by it.

Li Yuanying said: "The people Dai Ting brought back from Gaochang last time were good at raising camels. I told them to come here to raise more camels and eat up the grass of those long snakes!" He gave Li Er Majesty He preached a lot, saying that he would make everyone in the world eat meat.

His Majesty Li Er counted for him on the table: "You have already said that everyone in the world should be fed and clothed, that people in the world should have books to read, and that people in the world should have good doctors who can heal diseases. Do you get that much?"

Li Yuanying said: "It doesn't matter, if you encounter it, do it, if you can't do it, you won't lose money, not to mention that I have Dayan to accompany me in this matter. Dayan, good man, I promised that I would ask for money and money." He also sighed with His Majesty Li Er, "I used to think that the little round ball didn't look like a blue bird, but I couldn't tell who it looked like. Today, when I saw Dayan, I realized that the little round ball looked like Big Yan!"

His Majesty Li Er was so confused by his messy address that he didn't bother to correct it. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, if you can make it, just do it, and don't pay all of Yan Lide's money."

Li Yuanying didn't provoke His Majesty Li Er anymore, but announced with his friends that Xiangcheng Palace would become their play base. They wanted to ride camels, camels, elephants and elephants. They could keep all kinds of eagles, falcons and cranes for fun. Sizi and the others are still a little afraid of poisonous snakes, but Gao Yang cheered up: "Then can I ask other people to go with me then?"

Li Yuanying said: "Of course, more people will be more lively. I asked Dayan to help with the planning and planning. Raise more meaty ones, more capable ones, um, and more beautiful ones." He asked Gao Yang mysteriously, "I heard that snake meat is also delicious, do you dare to eat snake?"

Gao Yang is the age that is most likely to be provoked. When someone asks if he dares, his first reaction is of course to say yes without saying a word: "Why not?"

Li Yuanying said: "At that time, we will find some snake catchers, catch a few snakes and try them out, they will definitely know which snake is delicious!"

Li Zhi couldn't help reminding Li Yuanying: "Uncle Yao, Gao Yang is going to marry."

Gao Yang raised his eyebrows: "So what if you want to get married, can't you eat snakes if you want to get married?"

Li Zhi shut up.

Well, I won't let him marry anyway.

Now Li Zhi felt a little sympathetic to his future brother-in-law, maybe that Fang Er really hoped that he would not pass Li Yuanying's test.

Li Zhi shut up obediently, but Li Yuanying still wanted to give him a profound ideological education: "Why can't snakes be eaten? Snakes can also be used as medicine. You used to eat them when you were young. I read the prescription recorded by the imperial physician. You There was snake slough in the medicine I took.”

Relying on the fact that he had studied medicine with Sun Simiao for a few days, Li Yuanying continued to list to Li Zhi eloquently how snakes can be used as medicine. In addition to snake sloughs, there are other snake galls, snake wine, snake ointment, and snakes. Meat and snake soup with snake eggs.

The snakes were caught with great painstaking efforts, and their great ancestors would not waste them. They ate everything that could be eaten, and everything that could be used as medicine was used as medicine.

Hearing this, Li Zhi's stomach was churning, and he took several sips of tea unbearably, feeling that he might have accidentally eaten that slippery thing that crawled around and drilled around before!

Li Yuanying said contemptuously: "Poverty is important."

Li Yuanying is actively lobbying his friends to eat snakes together in the future, and Li Tai has also heard that Li Yuanying is going to take over Xiangcheng Palace.

It was His Majesty Li Er who told him about it. The father and son chatted happily. Seeing that the atmosphere was quite harmonious, Li Tai took the opportunity to ask about Yan Lide for his concubine.

After questioning, Li Tai found out that His Majesty Li Er was planning to give the Xiangcheng Palace to Li Yuanying to play with, and his father-in-law was drugged by Li Yuanying, and he boasted that he would contribute money and efforts to help Li Yuanying renovate the place!

Li Tai was very angry, but he couldn't show it in front of His Majesty Li Er. After returning, Li Tai and Princess Yan said: "There's no need for me to intercede with Emperor Father, your father can get away by himself."

Yan Shi heard that Li Tai's tone was not right, and after questioning, she realized that her father and Li Yuanying had gotten involved. I don't know why, but her husband's hostility towards Li Yuanying, the uncle, is very hostile, and it is increasing day by day, and it looks like he is going to chase the prince.

Yan Shi was about to persuade her, when Li Xiaoyuan came running over with his beloved little ball in her arms, and shouted childishly, "Yeah, ball, play."

Yan Shi picked him up and said, "Yeah, I have something to do and I don't have time to play ball with you. How about you play with Mammy and the others?"

Li Xiaoyuanqiu heard that Yan Shi said that Li Tai was not available, so he changed his request: "Yaoyao, look for him." He remembered that Yaoyao said that he would come to Luoyang too, and Yaoyao said that he could go and play with him.

As soon as Li Tai heard the word Yaoyao, he became annoyed, so he cursed at Yan Shi: "Take him out, don't bother me." For some reason, the emperor's father favored Li Yuanying more and more, and his son and father-in-law also agreed with him. Li Yuanying got mixed up! So, he hated Li Yuanying!

Knowing that Li Tai was in a bad mood, Yan hurriedly carried Li Xiaoyuan out.

Tears welled up in Li Xiaoyuan's eyes, and he pursed his mouth, wanting to cry.

Yan coaxed: "Xiner is not crying, Yeye is just unhappy, Yeye likes Xiner the most."

Li Xiaoyuanqiu hugged Yan Shi's neck and wept aggrievedly, tears streaming down: "Yaoyao, look for it, want it."
