Just when Wu Mei took Li Lingyue, accompanied by Jingzhe, and hurriedly boarded the palace carriage to go to Prince Ji's Mansion to find Li Hong, another person in the palace stood mindlessly at the entrance of the main hall of Zhenguan Hall. The queen was not there? Li Lingyue isn't here either
Where did they go? Have you gone to Luoyang City to see the night view? Okay, come with me to find them. I wanted to find someone to talk to, but I didn't expect that the Queen is not here yet.
"What? The Queen changed her route to Prince Ji's Mansion again? Why?" Li Zhi put on a pair of light blue casual clothes, dressed himself up, and welcomed Hua Ji's gift.
"It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not return to Chang'an today, but had dinner at Prince Ji's Mansion. When the Queen found out, she followed him there." Hua Ji was also dressed in casual clothes, with black clothes, and he still looked like a eunuch.
"Prince Ji's Mansion, why did you go to Prince Ji's Mansion? Li Shen is not very familiar with him, is he? Now he is just appreciated by Li Shen. What are they doing together? Go and have a look." Li Zhi waved his hand and the carriage drove away He stopped in front of him, got into the carriage with Huaji's help, and quickly headed towards Prince Ji's Mansion.
In Prince Ji's Mansion, Li Hong did not sit in the first seat again this time, but gave it to his master, Prince Ji Li Shen. He, Zhang Lushui and Jin Rongqi, who were still dressed as eunuchs, sat at the bottom of the chair under Prince Ji Li Shen.
Naturally, on the other side were Dongping County Prince Li Xu, Yiyang County Prince Li Cong, other princes, and Dongguang County Lord Li Chuyuan. They all sat around a large round table. Some of them finished their meals with satisfaction, such as Li Hong, and some even used chopsticks during the meal. None of them moved a few times, such as Li Chuyuan and her brothers.
These people didn't move their chopsticks a few times while eating, but they drank several glasses of wine under Li Hong's orders. Now they all had rosy faces, and they began to fill up Li Hong's stomach when he finally couldn't eat anymore. food.
Li Shen watched his sons start to eat. He thought that if Li Hong were here, they might not be able to eat well, so he had to invite Li Hong to the main hall again to talk. Regarding the two women dressed as eunuchs, although King Ji He didn't know who he was, but he still treated each other with courtesy. After the three of them stood up, he followed suit, leaving his son and daughter to eat together.
Li Chuyuan knew that she would go to Chang'an tomorrow to avoid her relatives. In order to avoid being married off to Tubo, she had no choice but to live with His Highness the Crown Prince in the East Palace. So when she saw her father leaving, she hurriedly got up and followed Li Shen to the main hall. go.
Under the guidance of the servants, the guests sat down again in the main hall. The maids immediately brought towels to wipe their hands and other things with quick and considerate hands. Then a cup of fragrant tea was placed on the table. at hand.
Every step and every link was coordinated seamlessly between these palace maids. What is even more commendable is that when they were doing all this and serving Li Hong and others, they did not let the master feel that they were staying in the living room. extra.
However, it can be just right and the timing is not hindered from their conversations and eye contact, completely hiding the trajectory of their actions. It's so wonderful that the master can't feel their existence. Everything is done by people's subconscious actions, and they are served by them unconsciously.
Li Hong stared at the six palace maids in disbelief, watching them move smoothly between the main halls without disturbing anyone at all. This made him couldn't help but become interested in the training of the six ladies and Prince Ji.
And it was only after King Ji watched Li Hong for a long time that he discovered that although Prince Li Hong had been catering to his words, his eyes had been watching the six maids and watching their every move.
"Did the prince find anything wrong?" When Li Shen asked this question, there was a look of pride on his face. The service of these six people was the most proud and praised thing in Prince Ji's palace. .
That is the service of the six of them. The guests will never notice their presence, but they can still feel their service. Everything is done naturally.
But no matter who it was, not even the emperor or the literati came to visit, they never discovered the mystery.
But now, in just half a cup of tea, the mystery here was discovered by His Highness the Crown Prince. While he was asking questions, he couldn't help but feel frightened by His Highness the Crown Prince's keen insight.
After all, this is the first time since the six palace maids served that their unusual tacit understanding and unusual service have been noticed. The previous guests, even if they sat in the hall for a day, would only feel indescribably arbitrary, but never One person realizes the mystery.
Li Hong turned around and gave up his gaze on the six palace maids. He looked at Prince Ji who was slightly pleased with his face, gave a thumbs up and said: "Uncle Wang, you are hiding something secret. I have to tell my father when I get back." "Uncle Ji Wang has six maids who work well and work well together, but he doesn't give this secret to the chamberlain."
"Hahaha... Hong'er is serious. You are the first person to discover that they are different in so many years. In the past few years, there have been many guests in the house, but the one who has your insight is... There is not one. It’s rare. Come on, Uncle Wang will have tea with you, haha.” After spending half a day together, Li Shen got to know Li Hong’s character and temper better, and the virtuous king’s demeanor. It also began to appear gradually.
After hearing Li Hong's words, he naturally had reasons to be happy. Not only on the surface, but the service of these palace maids had confused so many people in the past few years. After being pointed out by others, he felt proud and happy.
But Li Hong's keen insight is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people, especially nobles and royal families.
If one were to say who this insight resembled most, the first person that Ji Wang Li Shen thought of was the late Emperor Li Shimin. I am afraid that he was the only one who could have the same insight as Li Hong, regardless of superiority or inferiority, and could discern everything clearly.
After all, as a person in a superior position, whether they are royalty, nobles, high-ranking officials, rich families, or children of aristocratic families, even if they are literati or poor people, there has never been a single person they care about who cares about, can notice, and has This kind of sympathy for the most humble laborers makes it even less possible for him to focus on these maids who serve people.
But it happened that Prince Li Hong did it today. No one had done it in these years, only he did it today.
But what makes him even more happy and fortunate is that he finally chose to side today. He did not choose to stand on the opposite side of Li Hong like King Cao Li Ming and others, choosing Li Xian to join him as the future ruler of the Tang Dynasty. Instead, he chose Li Hong .
When his father and Li Jiancheng competed for the throne, Li Jiancheng's character was just like that of Li Xian. Although he wanted to recruit talents, in the end, none of the people he recruited could compare with his father's eighteen bachelors.
The reason why my father was able to recruit eighteen bachelors, in addition to his power and charm, was also due to his rich experience and insight. Whether they were traffickers or high-ranking officials, my father was able to discover their advantages. It was precisely because In this regard, among the eighteen bachelors of all kinds, there were some who were good at both civil and military affairs, but there were also those who only cared about martial arts but did not understand literature. However, these people became the foundation for my father to seek the throne.
In the recruitment of these eighteen bachelors, everyone admired the father and was convinced. Why? That's because my father could find common topics with everyone, and with his keen insight regardless of superiority or inferiority, he managed to win over such a group of loyal, brave and virtuous ministers.
Seeing Li Shen's joyful and heroic expression, which was completely out of the category of people's gentle and elegant image, he asked with interest: "Can Uncle Ji please teach me how to do this? If you don't like it, tell me, I want to Train my four maids...well, the other maids like this."
Li Hong thought about the virtues of Xia Zhi, Xiaoxue and others, and finally had to give up cultivating the four of them. Now that he was spoiled by himself, he could no longer cultivate this kind of tacit understanding, but he might try it in bed. Thinking of this At this place, someone became anxious again, wishing he could fly back to Chang'an East Palace immediately, strip the demon Bai Chun naked, hold him in his arms and ravage her.
"Then Hong'er, didn't you find something?" Li Shen asked mysteriously.
"Discovered...? Sextuplets! How is that possible!" Li Hong looked around at the six maids and shouted in shock.
Although he had been observing the smooth and coordinated movements of the six girls, he didn't pay much attention to their faces. Moreover, not all the sextuplets were exactly the same, but one or two were almost the same size.
What's more, after putting on the same clothes, it was difficult to distinguish their appearance. However, after being reminded by Li Shen, Li Hong quickly scanned the appearance of the six palace maids and found that between their eyebrows, the six of them were indeed... They were very similar, so they blurted out involuntarily.
"You... how do you know? They don't look very similar!" This time Li Shen was shocked! He instantly lost his usual gentle demeanor, stared, raised his voice, and asked in surprise!
He knew better than anyone else that these six palace maids did not look very similar. Although they were wearing the same clothes, they could be identified from their faces as one, two, three, four, five and six!
What's more, these sextuplets are simply a legend in the world. If you don't believe it, if you go to pick up a person on the street and tell him that a pregnant woman has given birth to sextuplets, and they are all of the same gender, the passerby will probably scold you if they don't spit on you. You sound crazy.
But such an unbelievable thing happened, which made Li Shen simply unbelievable at the time. Therefore, the parents of these six palace maids are now regarded by him as the auspiciousness of the Tang Dynasty and are enshrined in the palace!
The six palace maids look like palace maids, but they are all palace maids of high rank. They are treated exactly the same as the palace maids of Daming Palace and Luoyang Palace.
If it weren't for the good relationship between him and Li Zhi in private, such auspiciousness would have been taken back to the palace to be enshrined by Li Zhi.
After all, giving birth to sextuplets and raising them all, doesn't it mean that God favored the Tang Dynasty? This is not the auspiciousness of the Tang Dynasty, what else can it be! This does not mean that the Tang Dynasty can be anything else if it follows the way of heaven!
But you know, even in today's prosperous Tang Dynasty, people starving to death were common.
"I... I... I guessed." Li Hong was also immersed in shock, stuttering back to Li Shen's words, and then called the six maids in front of him, staring at them like they were looking at monsters.
He vaguely remembered that in his long memory of nine and ten lives, the only people who could give birth to same-sex sextuplets were a British couple in the previous life, who gave birth to the only same-sex sextuplets in the world. But now, unexpectedly, It actually happened in the Tang Dynasty, before my eyes!
