The Master of Cultivation rises up
Work related
Soon after being brought here, Nan Ting dipped a clean veil in water and carefully wiped Li Chao's face.Li Chao was impatient with his carefulness and dawdling, grabbed the handkerchief and wiped it carelessly, then threw the handkerchief into the basin casually.Nan Ting handed over tooth salt in a timely manner, just like the trend of a considerate little padded jacket.
After washing, Nanting began to serve Li Chao to get dressed.
Having been here for five years and being able to walk for four years, Li Chao has never worn enough clothes by himself, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't know how.The Li family is also a wealthy family, and they are very particular about dressing and dressing. What kind of accessories should be matched with what kind of clothes? Because of the different patterns and materials of the same clothes, the matching accessories are also different, which can be described as extremely complicated.If you wear it wrong, you will be laughed at by outsiders.Li Daoan was most afraid of these troubles, so he simply wore military armor. As a general, no one would say that he was inappropriate.Li Chao also wanted to get involved, but unfortunately, none of the whole family agreed, including those two scumbag brothers.
Five against one, Li Chao was completely defeated.
"Young master looks good in anything you wear, look, you look like a little golden boy." After dressing, Nan Ting started flattering again.Li Chao saw his attire clearly in the mirror, and he couldn't help complaining about his glittering appearance.
Ma Dan, can the golden color you choose look like a golden boy?Not only does it look like a golden boy, it also looks like a gold ingot!Look like a nouveau riche!Damn, there's even a smear of red cinnabar on the center of her eyebrows, she looks like a middle school student, so cute that she can't bear to look directly at her.
"Young master, don't you like it?" Nan Ting showed the wronged face of a young daughter-in-law again, Li Chao pulled the corner of his mouth, and popped out two words: "I like it." No wonder.
Nan Ting triumphantly flaunted to Shi Li behind him, with a beating expression of "Look, I know the young master likes no one knows the young master better than me", but Shi Li still looked at Nan Ting with adoring eyes, which made this The girl raised her tail to the sky.
"Master, the food is ready." Mancheng's dull voice came from outside the door. Compared with Nanting, who is nagging and loves to show off, and Shili, who is innocent and cute, Mancheng seems more sincere and talks less. However, this person is a spoiler His skill is invincible among the three, and he can be called a cold field artifact.
Nan Ting, who was enjoying the ten-mile worship, snorted coldly, and glared at Man Cheng angrily. The latter's complete lack of response made Nan Ting furious!A piece of wood, dead wood, rotten wood, sooner or later you will set fire to burn you.
Breakfast was millet porridge cooked just right. Li Chao drank a big bowl of pickles and his belly was full. He burped and was going to pay his respects to Gongsun Qingxi and his mother, but was told that both of them would go to Li Jing'an's residence.As a result, there is no one in the family.Li Chaozheng felt bored, so the concierge sent people to his small courtyard in a hurry.
"Young master, just now the eldest prince sent someone to send a message, saying that he wants to invite you to the mansion, and the carriage is waiting outside the door."
"Elder Prince?"
Li Chao became interested, he hadn't seen what this eldest prince looked like, so he might as well take this opportunity to get to know him better, so as to pave the way for his future. "That's fine, I'll go and see you, anyway, sooner or later we have to meet."
Li Chao took Nanting and Mancheng out, and as expected, he saw a luxurious carriage waiting at the gate. The door curtains on the carriage were all made of three layers of cold silk. Feeling that people are more popular than people!That cold silk is a treasure that is hard to come by, and the eldest prince actually used it to make curtains, he really is a local tyrant.Li Chao couldn't help but want to ask loudly, local tyrants, do you want to be friends?
I don't know if it is a common problem of his father's generation. Emperor Jingwu also has very few heirs. There are three princes and two princesses. He is the emperor with the fewest heirs in the history of the Immortal Dynasty.
The first prince, Duanmuyu, is 16 years old. He studied in the Imperial Academy since he was a child, and learned the art of emperors. Jin, twelve years old, with extraordinary talent, possessed a rare mutated wind spirit root, was accepted as a closed disciple by a master of cultivation, and was not in the palace all year round.The eldest princess Duanmu Jinshuang is thirteen, and the little princess who was born this year is named Duanmu Jinxiu. The two princesses are raised in a boudoir and do not have contact with others on weekdays. There is very little information from the outside world.
Emperor Jingwu has not established a crown prince for a long time, and the outside world has been talking about it. Seeing that the three princes are getting bigger and bigger, the ministers in the court began to speculate who has the highest chance of becoming a great treasure. Silently, the ministers were divided into four factions.Civil servants mostly supported the eldest prince, and military generals would naturally choose the second prince who was born in the military camp, and some of the third princes, who had never been seen before, even loyally supported some of them.
Li Chao wasn't sure how his father would choose the camp, he could be the son of a military general, Li Chao was ordered by Emperor Jingwu to be assigned to the eldest prince's side, and his identity became more subtle.What exactly does the old emperor mean?Whether they really wanted to support the First Prince, or were they released as a cover-up, the officials gradually became confused. The balance, which was already precarious, became wobbly again because of Li Chao.
These are all Li Chao wants to understand. After all, he was an actor in his previous life, so many years of dog-blood TV dramas are not for nothing. As for what he should do, the current situation is still unclear, and he can only take one step at a time. If you do it all, you will lose more than you gain.He could see through it, the old emperor was waiting, and he would take the knife on whoever was the first to lose his temper!It doesn't matter who his son is the emperor, but his relatives must not be allowed to monopolize power.
What Li Chao didn't expect was that the old emperor was still worried about another person, and this person was the chief culprit of future troubles.Li Chao didn't expect, nor did he expect, that the entire Li family would fall into a doomed situation because of that person!
The carriage drove all the way to the First Prince's residence.
As soon as Li Chao got off the carriage, a middle-aged man with the appearance of a butler came up to him and saluted Li Chao.
"Young master, please. My master has been waiting inside for a long time." The housekeeper looked like an ordinary person, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were shining brightly. Li Chao used the system to check and got a bunch of question marks.I always get a bunch of question marks. After a long time, Li Chao summed up a rule.As long as anyone whose level is too much higher than him, it is not surprising to see that they are all question marks, and those are existences that cannot be challenged by themselves.Being able to recruit such a strange person to be a housekeeper in the mansion, this Duanmuyu's skills in controlling people are quite capable.
Unknowingly, Li Chao became more interested in this meeting.
The question mark housekeeper led Li Chao all the way to the main hall.
The red tape in the Wanshi Xian Dynasty is the most troublesome. Generally, the main halls of rich and noble families are used to entertain distinguished guests, especially Duanmuyu's status is much higher than that of the Li Dynasty. If he is not summoned in the side hall, he should be in the study. In the main hall, Li Chao was flattered.When Li Chao walked to the main hall, he realized that he was just being sentimental.
The eldest prince is obviously not the only one who invited him today. Wen Zhong, the eldest son of the servant of the household department who was gentle and gentle in his youth, the little fat man who ate the pastry was Zhang Yida, the eldest grandson of the minister of the official department, and it was his expression who stared at him in surprise. Brother Liu Shuzhi, his father works in the Ministry of Rites, hey, counting the nephew of the minister of the Ministry of War, that is, himself, a member of the official family, a soldier, and criminal workers, most of the people from the Sixth Ministry came, the eldest prince has a big appetite.Looking around, Li Chao was surprised to find that there was an unusually familiar person sitting on the main seat next to the First Prince.This person is none other than Ah Jin whom I met two days ago.
Why is he here?He looks very familiar with the First Prince, could it be...
In an instant, Li Chao figured out Ajin's identity.He regarded Ah Jin as a friend, and never thought about it deeply. Seeing him here today, his identity is self-evident.Ah Jin, isn't she the third prince Duanmu Jin?
He should have thought of it earlier.
Li Chao was thinking about it, but his face remained calm, he stepped forward to salute Duanmu Yu and Duanmu Jin.
"Chen, Li Chao, I have met the eldest prince and the third prince."
"You don't need to be too polite, just sit down." Duanmuyu offered a seat, the so-called out of sight, out of mind, Li Chao took the farthest seat and sat down, without even glancing at Duanmujin.He knew that he had nothing to be angry about, but he still couldn't help but feel wronged. Why couldn't he tell himself directly, if he didn't discover it by accident today, would he continue to hide it?
When Li Chao thought about it, his heart became more and more unhappy. No matter in his previous life or in this life, what Li Chao hated the most was that others treated him as a fool, and his IQ was suppressed!
Although Duanmujin in the first place was sipping tea casually, he was actually looking at Li Chao out of the corner of his eye. Seeing his wrinkled face and bun-like expression, Duanmujin secretly smiled, and the little guy looked angry. very interesting.However, he should also find a time to apologize to the little guy, and he still needs to deal with it.
There are only a group of children here, the oldest is only Duan Muyu, who is only sixteen years old, and the youngest, Li Chao, is only five years old. When a group of children gather together, what they discuss is not about eating, drinking, having fun, fighting and fighting, but about studying hard and making progress every day. Well, Li Chao never thought that there would be such a day when the children gathered together to discuss state affairs, everyone's serious appearance really made Li Chao laugh in his heart.He is well versed in the principle of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. No matter how turbulent his heart is, on the surface he keeps his eyes on his nose, his nose, his nose, and his heart. He listens to what others say, and fishes in troubled waters like a respondent.
Duanmuyu has been sizing up the companion that his father gave him. To be honest, he doesn't like him. Just being the son of a general is enough for Duanmuyu to exclude him from the circle.However, whether he is happy or not, he still remembers his grandfather's advice to him.
The Li family is different from other families of military generals. It is good to be able to win over, but if you cannot win over, you must not make enemies with it.The prestige of the Li family in the Immortal Dynasty is unshakable, even the Duanmu royal family can hardly hide their limelight.
The sound of cavalry, the world is settled.
This sentence was said by Emperor Taizu, and what he described was exactly the iron cavalry of the Li family.The Duanmu family's family has always been inseparable from the Li family.If he can get the support of the Li family, Duanmuyu has already won most of this battle for the throne.
Duanmuyu didn't expect Li Chao to have any good ideas, she just came to make up the numbers, but when she saw Li Chao's lazy appearance, she began to feel dissatisfied.When he thought of his success or failure being affected by such a brat, he became even more furious. Why should he?Just because he is from the Li family?
Duanmuyu sneered and decided to deal with him.
"Master Li San, what do you think?"
Li Chao who was called was still in a daze, stunned, Duanmuyu looked impatient, so he asked again, Li Chao raised his head in a daze, and asked in doubt: "What?"
The chubby Zhang Yida next to him had his mouth full, and kindly reminded him: "The eldest prince asked you what you think of this imperial examination."
"No, I have no opinion." Li Chao said truthfully.If he doesn't go back to take the imperial examination, what will he think?When Duanmuyu heard this, her contempt became even greater, but she felt relieved for no reason.He's just a martial artist, but fortunately he knows current affairs and didn't comment on the imperial examinations, otherwise, Duanmuyu would definitely make him look good.Hmph, who doesn't know that his grandfather is the examiner for this imperial examination.
"Mr. Li San is still young, so he doesn't know much about such things. It's normal to have no opinion. But, Mr. Li, it's always good to learn more. Don't practice martial arts all day. You don't use your head for a long time. But it will become so stupid." Duanmuyu said these two sentences with a half-smile, and then stopped talking to Li Chao.
Being ridiculed so lightly, Li Chao was unscathed.He couldn't help but secretly sighed, Duanmuyu was still a child after all, his likes and dislikes were easy to show, and it was easy to pretend in the presence of adults, but in front of these children, he unconsciously revealed his true side.
Li Chao curled his lips and continued to pretend to be his own ostrich.
Duanmujin had a panoramic view of this scene. He originally thought that Li Chao would be difficult to resist or would be made to cry by his elder brother's words, but unexpectedly, his reaction was beyond his expectations. Now, Duanmujin is even more interested in Li Chao .
They have only met three times in total, and the first time they noticed this little thing was mainly because of the summoning of their father.The emperor would not summon people easily, and it was either a serious crime or a great merit that would arouse the emperor's idea.Obviously, Li Chao didn't belong to either of the two, and the result of his father's summoning surprised Duan Mujin even more. He couldn't understand his father's intentions, so he decided to attack Li Chao.He has no interest in the throne, he just thinks this matter is very interesting, and he needs interesting things to adjust his life, so this is the first time he met.
As for the second time, it was purely an accident. He originally planned to go to the Zuixiang Tower to meet the master, but he didn't expect to meet this little thing on the road, and made another move that surprised him again.It seems that this little thing is not only kind-hearted, but also a smart master.What surprised him again was yet to come.His unreliable master actually had a strong interest in Li Chao, and his words actually meant to accept Li Chao as his apprentice, and what was even more incredible was that he had a little bit of resistance.No one has ever caused Duanmujin to have such strange emotions, and Li Chao was completely missed by Duanmujin.
As for the third meeting today, Duanmu Jin had to sigh, fate is really a wonderful thing.
This group of boys talked about noon in a serious manner, seeing the sun was high, they all got up to say goodbye, Duan Muyu didn't intend to save food, and asked the housekeeper to send them away, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, there was no place for Li Chao's master and servant in the carriage.
Li Chaozheng was worried about how to return home, Duanmujin walked around from behind him, and put one hand on his shoulder: "Let's go, I'll take you home."
Li Chao stared back at him, a little angry, and ignored him.
"Well, it's my fault, I shouldn't have concealed it." Duan Mujin apologized in the most sincere tone, and Li Chao felt uncomfortable after hearing this.He seems to be making too much of a fuss, like a woman, too inconsistent with his high (chun) cold (meng) setting.Thinking of this, Li Chao generously expressed that he no longer cares about it.
"I invite you to dinner at noon, what do you want to eat?" Duanmu Jin's charming smile was like the warm sunlight brought by the breeze, unconsciously revealing his true thoughts.
"You look so pretty when you smile." Duanmu Jin was stunned for a moment when Li Chao said this without thinking, and then his smile became brighter.
"Let's go, let's go to Zuixianglou. His crystal shrimp is good. Do you want to eat lotus buns? Or lotus heart potato and rice soup?" Duanmu Jin hugged Li Chao by the waist, carried him into his carriage, Nanting and Mancheng He also jumped into the car, sat with the driver, and with a cool "drive" sound mixed with the whip, the group drove towards Zuixianglou.
Young children are old in the world
"Haha, master, you have lost again, come here, come and drink!"
Pour the crystal clear jade liquor into the porcelain white cup, and the intoxicating aroma hits the nostrils, making the wine worms in the stomach want to move. In the private room of Zuixiang Building, three men, big and small, are toasting and drinking.
Sitting in the middle is a middle-aged man, with a loose sleeved shirt casually put on his body, his chest is wide open, revealing his bronze-colored strong chest muscles. He is half leaning on the pear blossom wooden chair, looking up to drink the whole altar of wine. As soon as he finished, the overflowing wine fell down his unkempt beard, wet the skirt of his clothes, and left wet marks, giving rise to a sense of heroism for no reason.
"Master, you deliberately lost and came to drink!" The young man who spoke was about 20 years old, with a jade-like complexion, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, rich and handsome, and a personable demeanor.He is tall and slender, and he is wearing a light blue flowing cloud gown, which sets off his immortal appearance.His clear voice was full of detailed and insightful judgment. The middle-aged man who was named touched his nose embarrassingly, and put down the wine jar in his hand helplessly.
"And you, Chao'er, don't drink secretly!" The young man turned his head, and saw the little guy secretly licking the fine wine in the glass from time to time. He was not afraid after being discovered, and he stuck out his pink tongue mischievously, The bright eyes look forward to staring at the young man.
"Brother Ajin, let me have another drink, okay? You can finally come out of the barracks and enjoy yourself in time!"
"Yes, yes, enjoy yourself in time, Ah Jin, don't be so rigid, come on, Chao'er, give your brother Ah Jin a smile." The middle-aged man fanned the flames, somewhat malicious.
"Ah, Brother Ah Jin, I'll show you a spear dance, and you'll let me have another drink, okay?"
The young man was already drunk, his eyes were somewhat blurred, his blushing face was glowing with water, he was carrying a long spear that was much taller than himself, and he walked to the side in a nonchalant way, the mail armor made of fine steel made a harsh collision Voice.
With a flash of cold light, the young man shoots his gun like a dragon, his drunken eyes flash brightly, without a trace of drunkenness, his frivolous footsteps are replaced by exquisite ones, a long spear is danced like a tiger, and the young man's gestures are as fast as he can. Show general demeanor.The young man couldn't help feeling that the chubby little guy back then was not only slender, but also more and more handsome.
The young man danced excitedly, flipped his spear, jumped out of the window, and landed under the pomegranate tree in the courtyard below.The pomegranate flowers outside the window were in full bloom, and they were as red as blood. The young man's vigorous gun wind scratched off many bright flowers and fell with the wind.For a while, the sky was full of flowers and rain, like falling into a dream.
The red flowers set against the red armor, and the boy's silver spear was particularly conspicuous in the blood red. Under the sun, the spear shone brightly, like a silver dragon flying out of the sea, and its momentum was overwhelming.The two people in the room were unknowingly attracted by the boy, and they all walked to the window to admire quietly.
Someone in the lobby on the first floor had already noticed the situation in the small courtyard. Passers-by were all attracted by the young man's exquisite and domineering marksmanship, and there were endless applause. For some reason, the young man suddenly felt unhappy, as if his treasured treasure was being coveted by others.
There were more and more people watching, the young man suddenly pointed his spear at the ground, took advantage of the momentum to do a somersault, and jumped straight up to the box on the second floor.
The young man was half kneeling on the window sill, his heroic and handsome face suddenly magnified in front of the young man's eyes, and the huge flower in the corner of his mouth exuded a burst of fragrance.The young man opened his mouth, stretched out his hand to catch the falling red flower, and handed it to the young man.
"Brother Ajin, this is the biggest and most beautiful flower, I give it to you."
The boy's black and white eyes were bright and misty, and his slender eyelashes trembled slightly, exuding a strange demeanor.Before the young man took the red flower, the young man's body suddenly softened and he leaned back. He was about to fall down the second floor.Jian Shigeng's armor hit him, but his heart was soft.
The middle-aged man next to him looked at it, and couldn't help muttering secretly: "You said it wasn't your little daughter-in-law, you lied to a ghost!" After that, he raised his eyebrows when he saw that the two of them were not paying attention, and decided to throw away all the remaining wine. drink up.This is Jinyaochun, which can only be brewed in 300 years, and only available in the imperial palace. This time, I can only drink it thanks to Ajin's blessing. Next time, tsk tsk, it will be hard to say next time.
The young man looked at the boy who was soundly asleep in his arms, and sighed softly: "Oh, master, I'll take Chao'er home first, you can do what you want."
"Yeah." The middle-aged man was only focused on drinking, and nodded indiscriminately, so he didn't care what the young couple were doing.After the two left, only the sound of the middle-aged man drinking and belching was left in the box.
These three people are none other than Lu Jiuxian, Duanmu Jin, and Li Chao seven years later. Why did the three reunite? Speaking of it, there is still a story.
Li Chao was ordered to accompany Duan Muyu to study in the Imperial Academy, where he spent three years in peace.According to the tradition of the Wanshi Xian Dynasty, the prince had to move out of the Eastern Capital and build a mansion in the feudal land before he lost his crown.So the 19-year-old eldest prince had to prepare to build a fief and build a mansion and perform the ceremony of a weak crown. He didn't have to go to the imperial school, and Li Chao naturally returned to the barracks.
There was another person who came back with Li Chao, Lu Jiuxian.It turned out that he was one of the three masters of the Imperial Academy, teaching the six arts of stature and imperialism. It is hard to imagine that such a bold and unrestrained man like Lu Jiuxian would obediently nest in this small place as a teacher. The story behind it It must be thrilling.
Li Chao once secretly asked Duanmu Jin the reason. According to A Jin, Lu Jiuxian seemed to be hiding from someone, saying that he had committed an unforgivable sin and had no face to face that person. Only then will Lu Jiuxian bring the little Duanmu Jin around in the clouds (tao) (nan).
Li Chao stroked his chin and began to make up his mind thoughtfully.The woman who can make Lu Jiuxian commit serious crimes is either beautiful and shameful, or ugly and overwhelmed. At the scene of a car accident, Li Chao has some evil intentions and wants to announce Lu Jiuxian's location to the world. Just to take a look at the shocking scene.
Unexpectedly, when Li Chao met the legendary wife in the near future, the three views were refreshed again.Not only did he miss the beginning, he didn't even guess the ending.He never thought that this teacher's wife turned out to be an out-and-out man!Master, what kind of outrageous things have you done, I don't want to pay off your debts for you!
Li Chao was carried all the way back to Duke Huguo's mansion by Duanmujin.The two wives were enjoying the cool under the shade of a tree, when they saw Duanmu Jin appearing from a distance, they just stood up and apologized, but did not step forward.Duanmu Jin also nodded in response, and then walked towards Li Chao's room familiarly.
The two wives have long been familiar with such a situation. Presumably, the above situation has happened many times. Faced with such a result, the two of them don't know what to think.Obviously Li Chao was sent to the eldest prince's side, but he finally walked closest to the third prince.In the past two years, the eldest prince and the second prince have been conferred the title of king successively. Seeing that the third prince is also a weaker crown, and was preparing to entrust the land and palace, this Eastern Capital is about to change.
The Li family is loyal to the country and disloyal to the army. No matter who is the emperor, the Li family will do everything they can to assist them. It may be said to be extremely stupid and loyal to outsiders, but it is a rule passed down from the ancestors of the Li family. Down the foothold of this.This kind of loyalty not only comforted the emperor, but also made the royal family afraid.
Duanmujin carried Li Chao into the room, and did not leave immediately, but sat by the window and watched for a while.The room was very hot and stuffy, so he took off Li Chao's armor and drew a breeze to dispel the stuffy heat for Li Chao. The latter comfortably rubbed his pillow, turned over and continued to sleep.Suddenly, a messenger bee appeared in front of Duanmujin. Lu Jiuxian sent a message saying that he had something to discuss. He hesitated for a moment, carried Li Chao to the place where the two wives were enjoying the cool outside, and gently put him on the recliner.
"The room is stuffy and hot. I'm afraid that Chao'er won't be able to sleep well. Please ask the two ladies to take care of her. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
"What did Ajin say? Chao'er is my son, and it's only natural to take care of him. But since you have something to do, I won't keep you, Aunt Qiu, send Ajin out."
In front of the Li family, Duanmujin never regarded himself as the third prince, but met him as a junior. This made Gongsun Qingxi and Liu Qianran very happy. The most impatient of these red tapes, otherwise, with the frequency of Duanmu Jin's door visits, the entire Li family would be tossed to death.
Liu Qianran brought a fan from the maid, and while fanning Li Chao, chatted with Gongsun Qingxi.Li Chao fell into a drowsy sleep, and heard something vaguely.
"Look... sleep like a little pig..."
"It's not... well, I don't know who this child looks like. He has a big heart and doesn't take anything to heart..."
"Hey, it's really...it's said that Zhizi is more like a mother..."
"I heard that another refugee was about to enter the city, and was beaten back by the Habayashi Guard, causing many casualties..."
"Hey, there's no other way. Dongdu is so big. They all come in... What should we do... The battle ahead is tight, and I don't know how the master is doing. There hasn't been a letter for two months, right?"
"Don't worry...it's not the first time...the last time...the war was tight...has it been half a year?"
"No news is good news... Li Xiao and Li Mian... come back."
"Teacher's letter...one month...two people...fast...future..."
"The Huaiyang family has another... Li Cheng... princess... happy event..."
Li Chao fell asleep again in a daze during the conversation between the two.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Li Chao was awakened by Liu Qianran's gentle shaking.
"Chao'er, Chao'er, wake up, it's time to have dinner. Your cousin and sister-in-law have already arrived, and Li Cheng is clamoring to see you, but he can't stop him." As if to confirm Liu Qianran's words , Li Chao had just got up when he was suddenly knocked into his arms by a small cannonball, which almost knocked him down with great strength.
"Little uncle, little uncle! Cheng'er misses you to death! Does little uncle miss Cheng'er?" The four-year-old Li Cheng is [-]% similar to Li Chao back then. people like it.Li Chao reached out to ruffle Li Cheng's shaggy hair and narrowed his eyes.
"I think, Cheng'er is so cute, of course my little uncle misses you!"
Looking down at the short Li Cheng, Li Chao inexplicably felt a sense of superiority. He who was always being patted by others finally had a day to stand up. This feeling was not to mention very refreshing.He bent down and hugged Li Cheng in his arms, his expression darkened: "Cheng'er, you're getting fat again! If you get fatter, you'll become a piggy!"
"Shame, Cheng'er is not a pig, but the little uncle. Daddy said, the little uncle is a lot fatter than Cheng'er at Cheng'er's age. Hmph, the little uncle is a deceitful person. You think I'm A three-year-old child, Cheng'er won't be fooled."
"Okay, okay, you are not a three-year-old child, you are four years old, you are a big kid!" When someone mentioned the black history of the year, Li Chao blushed, and while silently chanting childish words, he gritted his teeth with hatred for his cousin.Didn't he just punish him once when he was a child, so there's no need to hold grudges like this.
"Come on, Cheng'er, come to grandma and ask your little uncle to change clothes, and we will have dinner later." Liu Qianran waved to Li Cheng, but the little guy refused to buy it, and depended on Li Chao's life and death.
"No, Cheng'er has one or two... I haven't seen my little uncle for many days. Cheng'er wants to be with my little uncle. There are no hills in the mountains, and the heaven and the earth are united. How dare I...well, separate from my little uncle." The little guy counts. Not so good, I didn't learn poetry well, and used it indiscriminately, causing many jokes.
"Mother, it's okay, let Cheng'er follow me. You go to work first, and I will take him to dinner later."
Li Chao hugged Li Cheng and walked towards his room. Little Li Cheng patted Li Chao's back and shouted like riding a horse: "Drive! Drive! Little uncle, hurry up! Drive!"
"Stinky boy, you really treat me like a horse, and you can get down and walk by yourself if you call me again."
"No, little uncle is the best, come, kiss." Li Cheng approached with malicious intentions.
"Stinky boy, you owe me a beating again, don't you dare to slobber my face!" Li Chao growled.
"Hahaha, little uncle, please forgive me, haha, it's...it was Dad who asked me to do this! Hahaha, little uncle..." Li Cheng was still young, and he had been cheating on his father and selling his teammates for 100 years. Dad Qiurong was once again destroyed.
Xiao Tian's strategy to kill the night
After Li Chao took Li Cheng to change his clothes, they came to Xiaohua Hall hand in hand.Because it was a family banquet, everyone dressed casually, so when the two of them came out, they firmly captured the attention of everyone in the flower hall.The big one is heroic, with picturesque features; the little one is innocent, witty and cute, just like a pair of jade and golden boys.
"Come, come, Cheng'er, come to grandma." Gongsun Qingxi and Liu Qianran's eyes lit up, and they greeted little Li Cheng to come to their side. This little guy is more loving than Li Chao when he was a child. Act like a baby when you should act like a baby, and act cute when you should act cute. It doesn't look like Li Chao. Most of the time, his face is paralyzed. Let alone acting like a baby, he has never even had the usual crying and poisoning that children are used to. He looks like an adult, not cute at all. .
Li Chao stepped forward two steps and sat in the vacated seat next to Liu Qianran.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
Li Huaiyang is 30% similar to Li Jingan, gentle and gentle, when he smiles, he will half-close his eyes, giving people the feeling of spring breeze.Xu is to give people a mature and prudent look, he started to grow a beard, a small black patch on the chin, adding a lot of age to him, he is in his early twenties, he looks more than [-].
The eldest sister-in-law Duanmuqing is a typical lady of every family, elegant and refined, gentle and virtuous.She doesn't talk much, she always has a smile on her face, and she doesn't show her teeth. When Li Cheng is mentioned occasionally, she will intervene. Li Cheng eats.Although she is a princess, Li Chao has never seen the arrogance and savagery of any royal children in her. On the contrary, she is surprisingly easy to get along with. Li Chao has a good relationship with her.
The two got married five years ago by decree, and gave birth to Li Cheng the following year. They lived a peaceful and beautiful life together.
Little Li Cheng didn't want to eat after taking two mouthfuls of rice. He put down his chopsticks, ran half a circle around the table to Li Chao's side, and slithered onto his lap regardless of Li Chao's willingness or not.
"Uncle, I want chicken legs."
Li Chao thought he was greedy, so he gave him the chicken leg on the table, the little guy grabbed it with his hand, jumped off Li Chao's body, ran to Duanmu Qing's side, and handed the chicken leg to him. she.
"Mom, you eat!"
Everyone at the dinner table was taken aback, staring blankly at Li Cheng, looking very embarrassed at the little guy.With a blushing face, he murmured softly: "Good food, let mother and younger brother eat."
It turned out that after hearing the doctor's words, little Li Cheng knew that Duanmuqing was happy, and he was about to give him a little brother. He had always envied other little friends to have younger brothers. Seeing that he was going to have a younger brother, he was naturally overjoyed. Even the chicken drumsticks that I like most on weekdays are reluctant to eat by myself, so I want to give it to my little brother.
Almost at that moment, Li Chao saw tears welling up in Duanmu Qing's eyes. Being a parent, there is nothing happier than seeing your children being filial and sensible, especially at such a young age as Li Cheng.Li Chao respected Li Huaiyang in a timely manner: "Brother has given birth to a good son!" Li Huaiyang drank it down and said "um".
Duanmuqing took the chicken leg from Li Cheng and put it on the plate in front of her, but just smelling the chicken leg made her feel nauseous.Gongsun Qingxi was careful, and was the first to find out, and ordered people to remove the plate.Li Cheng immediately showed a disappointed expression.Seeing this, Gongsun Qingxi hurriedly comforted him: "Be careful, your mother is in a bad mood, but she can't eat such a greasy thing. There are freshly made lotus leaf cakes in the small kitchen. Go and bring a plate, and make sure your mother likes to eat that." .”
Little Li Chao didn't know what it meant to be shy, he only heard that his mother loved it, and immediately ran towards the small kitchen non-stop, Li Chao hurriedly ordered Nanting to follow and take care of him, for fear that he would accidentally fall.
"How many months?"
"It's been almost three months." Duanmu Qing caressed her lower abdomen with a shy face.
"Yo, it's been three months, and she's showing signs of pregnancy." Gongsun Qingxi suddenly realized a problem, and hurriedly asked, "Is there someone to take care of me at home? Hey, I'm so confused, those two elders don't know how to take care of others. So , you don’t go back today, just stay here from now on, sister Qian and I can help and take care of you. As for you, you can raise your baby here with peace of mind. If you get bored or bored, let Li Chaoli I promise they will amuse you and relieve your boredom, the two boys are only useful for this."
"Mother!" Li Chao, who was named, was dissatisfied. He was clearly a super strong DPS, so how could he be reduced to the point where he can amuse people?
Liu Qianran waved his hand: "Why don't all three of you live here, you are not outsiders, so why not be polite. It's settled like that."
Duanmuqing looked at her husband, and Li Huaiyang cleared his throat: "Thank you two aunts. In fact, I came here today, that's what I mean. The battle ahead is tight, my father went to the palace to discuss matters, and he hasn't come home for three days. A large number of refugees are coming again, I guess I will be busy. Fang Qing'er is at home alone, I really don't feel at ease, not to mention she is pregnant now, Cheng'er is young, even if the two aunts don't mention it today, Huaiyang You have to be cheeky and ask the two of you for help."
"Why don't you invite me, you boy, you learned a few words of official language in the officialdom, how can you use it on your aunt! Qing'er can live here, we are too happy. Yinyue, Lanmei, you two go to the room Pack it out, clean it carefully, Qinger's body needs to be careful. You don't know, the room you lived in when you were pregnant with Li Chengshi last time, we still keep it for you." Gongsun Qingxi smiled and ordered the servants to go to work: " If you have anything you want to eat, tell your aunt, and I will let them prepare it."
After finishing speaking, Gongsun Qingxi clapped his hands: "Ancestor bless, our Li family
After washing, Nanting began to serve Li Chao to get dressed.
Having been here for five years and being able to walk for four years, Li Chao has never worn enough clothes by himself, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't know how.The Li family is also a wealthy family, and they are very particular about dressing and dressing. What kind of accessories should be matched with what kind of clothes? Because of the different patterns and materials of the same clothes, the matching accessories are also different, which can be described as extremely complicated.If you wear it wrong, you will be laughed at by outsiders.Li Daoan was most afraid of these troubles, so he simply wore military armor. As a general, no one would say that he was inappropriate.Li Chao also wanted to get involved, but unfortunately, none of the whole family agreed, including those two scumbag brothers.
Five against one, Li Chao was completely defeated.
"Young master looks good in anything you wear, look, you look like a little golden boy." After dressing, Nan Ting started flattering again.Li Chao saw his attire clearly in the mirror, and he couldn't help complaining about his glittering appearance.
Ma Dan, can the golden color you choose look like a golden boy?Not only does it look like a golden boy, it also looks like a gold ingot!Look like a nouveau riche!Damn, there's even a smear of red cinnabar on the center of her eyebrows, she looks like a middle school student, so cute that she can't bear to look directly at her.
"Young master, don't you like it?" Nan Ting showed the wronged face of a young daughter-in-law again, Li Chao pulled the corner of his mouth, and popped out two words: "I like it." No wonder.
Nan Ting triumphantly flaunted to Shi Li behind him, with a beating expression of "Look, I know the young master likes no one knows the young master better than me", but Shi Li still looked at Nan Ting with adoring eyes, which made this The girl raised her tail to the sky.
"Master, the food is ready." Mancheng's dull voice came from outside the door. Compared with Nanting, who is nagging and loves to show off, and Shili, who is innocent and cute, Mancheng seems more sincere and talks less. However, this person is a spoiler His skill is invincible among the three, and he can be called a cold field artifact.
Nan Ting, who was enjoying the ten-mile worship, snorted coldly, and glared at Man Cheng angrily. The latter's complete lack of response made Nan Ting furious!A piece of wood, dead wood, rotten wood, sooner or later you will set fire to burn you.
Breakfast was millet porridge cooked just right. Li Chao drank a big bowl of pickles and his belly was full. He burped and was going to pay his respects to Gongsun Qingxi and his mother, but was told that both of them would go to Li Jing'an's residence.As a result, there is no one in the family.Li Chaozheng felt bored, so the concierge sent people to his small courtyard in a hurry.
"Young master, just now the eldest prince sent someone to send a message, saying that he wants to invite you to the mansion, and the carriage is waiting outside the door."
"Elder Prince?"
Li Chao became interested, he hadn't seen what this eldest prince looked like, so he might as well take this opportunity to get to know him better, so as to pave the way for his future. "That's fine, I'll go and see you, anyway, sooner or later we have to meet."
Li Chao took Nanting and Mancheng out, and as expected, he saw a luxurious carriage waiting at the gate. The door curtains on the carriage were all made of three layers of cold silk. Feeling that people are more popular than people!That cold silk is a treasure that is hard to come by, and the eldest prince actually used it to make curtains, he really is a local tyrant.Li Chao couldn't help but want to ask loudly, local tyrants, do you want to be friends?
I don't know if it is a common problem of his father's generation. Emperor Jingwu also has very few heirs. There are three princes and two princesses. He is the emperor with the fewest heirs in the history of the Immortal Dynasty.
The first prince, Duanmuyu, is 16 years old. He studied in the Imperial Academy since he was a child, and learned the art of emperors. Jin, twelve years old, with extraordinary talent, possessed a rare mutated wind spirit root, was accepted as a closed disciple by a master of cultivation, and was not in the palace all year round.The eldest princess Duanmu Jinshuang is thirteen, and the little princess who was born this year is named Duanmu Jinxiu. The two princesses are raised in a boudoir and do not have contact with others on weekdays. There is very little information from the outside world.
Emperor Jingwu has not established a crown prince for a long time, and the outside world has been talking about it. Seeing that the three princes are getting bigger and bigger, the ministers in the court began to speculate who has the highest chance of becoming a great treasure. Silently, the ministers were divided into four factions.Civil servants mostly supported the eldest prince, and military generals would naturally choose the second prince who was born in the military camp, and some of the third princes, who had never been seen before, even loyally supported some of them.
Li Chao wasn't sure how his father would choose the camp, he could be the son of a military general, Li Chao was ordered by Emperor Jingwu to be assigned to the eldest prince's side, and his identity became more subtle.What exactly does the old emperor mean?Whether they really wanted to support the First Prince, or were they released as a cover-up, the officials gradually became confused. The balance, which was already precarious, became wobbly again because of Li Chao.
These are all Li Chao wants to understand. After all, he was an actor in his previous life, so many years of dog-blood TV dramas are not for nothing. As for what he should do, the current situation is still unclear, and he can only take one step at a time. If you do it all, you will lose more than you gain.He could see through it, the old emperor was waiting, and he would take the knife on whoever was the first to lose his temper!It doesn't matter who his son is the emperor, but his relatives must not be allowed to monopolize power.
What Li Chao didn't expect was that the old emperor was still worried about another person, and this person was the chief culprit of future troubles.Li Chao didn't expect, nor did he expect, that the entire Li family would fall into a doomed situation because of that person!
The carriage drove all the way to the First Prince's residence.
As soon as Li Chao got off the carriage, a middle-aged man with the appearance of a butler came up to him and saluted Li Chao.
"Young master, please. My master has been waiting inside for a long time." The housekeeper looked like an ordinary person, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were shining brightly. Li Chao used the system to check and got a bunch of question marks.I always get a bunch of question marks. After a long time, Li Chao summed up a rule.As long as anyone whose level is too much higher than him, it is not surprising to see that they are all question marks, and those are existences that cannot be challenged by themselves.Being able to recruit such a strange person to be a housekeeper in the mansion, this Duanmuyu's skills in controlling people are quite capable.
Unknowingly, Li Chao became more interested in this meeting.
The question mark housekeeper led Li Chao all the way to the main hall.
The red tape in the Wanshi Xian Dynasty is the most troublesome. Generally, the main halls of rich and noble families are used to entertain distinguished guests, especially Duanmuyu's status is much higher than that of the Li Dynasty. If he is not summoned in the side hall, he should be in the study. In the main hall, Li Chao was flattered.When Li Chao walked to the main hall, he realized that he was just being sentimental.
The eldest prince is obviously not the only one who invited him today. Wen Zhong, the eldest son of the servant of the household department who was gentle and gentle in his youth, the little fat man who ate the pastry was Zhang Yida, the eldest grandson of the minister of the official department, and it was his expression who stared at him in surprise. Brother Liu Shuzhi, his father works in the Ministry of Rites, hey, counting the nephew of the minister of the Ministry of War, that is, himself, a member of the official family, a soldier, and criminal workers, most of the people from the Sixth Ministry came, the eldest prince has a big appetite.Looking around, Li Chao was surprised to find that there was an unusually familiar person sitting on the main seat next to the First Prince.This person is none other than Ah Jin whom I met two days ago.
Why is he here?He looks very familiar with the First Prince, could it be...
In an instant, Li Chao figured out Ajin's identity.He regarded Ah Jin as a friend, and never thought about it deeply. Seeing him here today, his identity is self-evident.Ah Jin, isn't she the third prince Duanmu Jin?
He should have thought of it earlier.
Li Chao was thinking about it, but his face remained calm, he stepped forward to salute Duanmu Yu and Duanmu Jin.
"Chen, Li Chao, I have met the eldest prince and the third prince."
"You don't need to be too polite, just sit down." Duanmuyu offered a seat, the so-called out of sight, out of mind, Li Chao took the farthest seat and sat down, without even glancing at Duanmujin.He knew that he had nothing to be angry about, but he still couldn't help but feel wronged. Why couldn't he tell himself directly, if he didn't discover it by accident today, would he continue to hide it?
When Li Chao thought about it, his heart became more and more unhappy. No matter in his previous life or in this life, what Li Chao hated the most was that others treated him as a fool, and his IQ was suppressed!
Although Duanmujin in the first place was sipping tea casually, he was actually looking at Li Chao out of the corner of his eye. Seeing his wrinkled face and bun-like expression, Duanmujin secretly smiled, and the little guy looked angry. very interesting.However, he should also find a time to apologize to the little guy, and he still needs to deal with it.
There are only a group of children here, the oldest is only Duan Muyu, who is only sixteen years old, and the youngest, Li Chao, is only five years old. When a group of children gather together, what they discuss is not about eating, drinking, having fun, fighting and fighting, but about studying hard and making progress every day. Well, Li Chao never thought that there would be such a day when the children gathered together to discuss state affairs, everyone's serious appearance really made Li Chao laugh in his heart.He is well versed in the principle of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. No matter how turbulent his heart is, on the surface he keeps his eyes on his nose, his nose, his nose, and his heart. He listens to what others say, and fishes in troubled waters like a respondent.
Duanmuyu has been sizing up the companion that his father gave him. To be honest, he doesn't like him. Just being the son of a general is enough for Duanmuyu to exclude him from the circle.However, whether he is happy or not, he still remembers his grandfather's advice to him.
The Li family is different from other families of military generals. It is good to be able to win over, but if you cannot win over, you must not make enemies with it.The prestige of the Li family in the Immortal Dynasty is unshakable, even the Duanmu royal family can hardly hide their limelight.
The sound of cavalry, the world is settled.
This sentence was said by Emperor Taizu, and what he described was exactly the iron cavalry of the Li family.The Duanmu family's family has always been inseparable from the Li family.If he can get the support of the Li family, Duanmuyu has already won most of this battle for the throne.
Duanmuyu didn't expect Li Chao to have any good ideas, she just came to make up the numbers, but when she saw Li Chao's lazy appearance, she began to feel dissatisfied.When he thought of his success or failure being affected by such a brat, he became even more furious. Why should he?Just because he is from the Li family?
Duanmuyu sneered and decided to deal with him.
"Master Li San, what do you think?"
Li Chao who was called was still in a daze, stunned, Duanmuyu looked impatient, so he asked again, Li Chao raised his head in a daze, and asked in doubt: "What?"
The chubby Zhang Yida next to him had his mouth full, and kindly reminded him: "The eldest prince asked you what you think of this imperial examination."
"No, I have no opinion." Li Chao said truthfully.If he doesn't go back to take the imperial examination, what will he think?When Duanmuyu heard this, her contempt became even greater, but she felt relieved for no reason.He's just a martial artist, but fortunately he knows current affairs and didn't comment on the imperial examinations, otherwise, Duanmuyu would definitely make him look good.Hmph, who doesn't know that his grandfather is the examiner for this imperial examination.
"Mr. Li San is still young, so he doesn't know much about such things. It's normal to have no opinion. But, Mr. Li, it's always good to learn more. Don't practice martial arts all day. You don't use your head for a long time. But it will become so stupid." Duanmuyu said these two sentences with a half-smile, and then stopped talking to Li Chao.
Being ridiculed so lightly, Li Chao was unscathed.He couldn't help but secretly sighed, Duanmuyu was still a child after all, his likes and dislikes were easy to show, and it was easy to pretend in the presence of adults, but in front of these children, he unconsciously revealed his true side.
Li Chao curled his lips and continued to pretend to be his own ostrich.
Duanmujin had a panoramic view of this scene. He originally thought that Li Chao would be difficult to resist or would be made to cry by his elder brother's words, but unexpectedly, his reaction was beyond his expectations. Now, Duanmujin is even more interested in Li Chao .
They have only met three times in total, and the first time they noticed this little thing was mainly because of the summoning of their father.The emperor would not summon people easily, and it was either a serious crime or a great merit that would arouse the emperor's idea.Obviously, Li Chao didn't belong to either of the two, and the result of his father's summoning surprised Duan Mujin even more. He couldn't understand his father's intentions, so he decided to attack Li Chao.He has no interest in the throne, he just thinks this matter is very interesting, and he needs interesting things to adjust his life, so this is the first time he met.
As for the second time, it was purely an accident. He originally planned to go to the Zuixiang Tower to meet the master, but he didn't expect to meet this little thing on the road, and made another move that surprised him again.It seems that this little thing is not only kind-hearted, but also a smart master.What surprised him again was yet to come.His unreliable master actually had a strong interest in Li Chao, and his words actually meant to accept Li Chao as his apprentice, and what was even more incredible was that he had a little bit of resistance.No one has ever caused Duanmujin to have such strange emotions, and Li Chao was completely missed by Duanmujin.
As for the third meeting today, Duanmu Jin had to sigh, fate is really a wonderful thing.
This group of boys talked about noon in a serious manner, seeing the sun was high, they all got up to say goodbye, Duan Muyu didn't intend to save food, and asked the housekeeper to send them away, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, there was no place for Li Chao's master and servant in the carriage.
Li Chaozheng was worried about how to return home, Duanmujin walked around from behind him, and put one hand on his shoulder: "Let's go, I'll take you home."
Li Chao stared back at him, a little angry, and ignored him.
"Well, it's my fault, I shouldn't have concealed it." Duan Mujin apologized in the most sincere tone, and Li Chao felt uncomfortable after hearing this.He seems to be making too much of a fuss, like a woman, too inconsistent with his high (chun) cold (meng) setting.Thinking of this, Li Chao generously expressed that he no longer cares about it.
"I invite you to dinner at noon, what do you want to eat?" Duanmu Jin's charming smile was like the warm sunlight brought by the breeze, unconsciously revealing his true thoughts.
"You look so pretty when you smile." Duanmu Jin was stunned for a moment when Li Chao said this without thinking, and then his smile became brighter.
"Let's go, let's go to Zuixianglou. His crystal shrimp is good. Do you want to eat lotus buns? Or lotus heart potato and rice soup?" Duanmu Jin hugged Li Chao by the waist, carried him into his carriage, Nanting and Mancheng He also jumped into the car, sat with the driver, and with a cool "drive" sound mixed with the whip, the group drove towards Zuixianglou.
Young children are old in the world
"Haha, master, you have lost again, come here, come and drink!"
Pour the crystal clear jade liquor into the porcelain white cup, and the intoxicating aroma hits the nostrils, making the wine worms in the stomach want to move. In the private room of Zuixiang Building, three men, big and small, are toasting and drinking.
Sitting in the middle is a middle-aged man, with a loose sleeved shirt casually put on his body, his chest is wide open, revealing his bronze-colored strong chest muscles. He is half leaning on the pear blossom wooden chair, looking up to drink the whole altar of wine. As soon as he finished, the overflowing wine fell down his unkempt beard, wet the skirt of his clothes, and left wet marks, giving rise to a sense of heroism for no reason.
"Master, you deliberately lost and came to drink!" The young man who spoke was about 20 years old, with a jade-like complexion, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, rich and handsome, and a personable demeanor.He is tall and slender, and he is wearing a light blue flowing cloud gown, which sets off his immortal appearance.His clear voice was full of detailed and insightful judgment. The middle-aged man who was named touched his nose embarrassingly, and put down the wine jar in his hand helplessly.
"And you, Chao'er, don't drink secretly!" The young man turned his head, and saw the little guy secretly licking the fine wine in the glass from time to time. He was not afraid after being discovered, and he stuck out his pink tongue mischievously, The bright eyes look forward to staring at the young man.
"Brother Ajin, let me have another drink, okay? You can finally come out of the barracks and enjoy yourself in time!"
"Yes, yes, enjoy yourself in time, Ah Jin, don't be so rigid, come on, Chao'er, give your brother Ah Jin a smile." The middle-aged man fanned the flames, somewhat malicious.
"Ah, Brother Ah Jin, I'll show you a spear dance, and you'll let me have another drink, okay?"
The young man was already drunk, his eyes were somewhat blurred, his blushing face was glowing with water, he was carrying a long spear that was much taller than himself, and he walked to the side in a nonchalant way, the mail armor made of fine steel made a harsh collision Voice.
With a flash of cold light, the young man shoots his gun like a dragon, his drunken eyes flash brightly, without a trace of drunkenness, his frivolous footsteps are replaced by exquisite ones, a long spear is danced like a tiger, and the young man's gestures are as fast as he can. Show general demeanor.The young man couldn't help feeling that the chubby little guy back then was not only slender, but also more and more handsome.
The young man danced excitedly, flipped his spear, jumped out of the window, and landed under the pomegranate tree in the courtyard below.The pomegranate flowers outside the window were in full bloom, and they were as red as blood. The young man's vigorous gun wind scratched off many bright flowers and fell with the wind.For a while, the sky was full of flowers and rain, like falling into a dream.
The red flowers set against the red armor, and the boy's silver spear was particularly conspicuous in the blood red. Under the sun, the spear shone brightly, like a silver dragon flying out of the sea, and its momentum was overwhelming.The two people in the room were unknowingly attracted by the boy, and they all walked to the window to admire quietly.
Someone in the lobby on the first floor had already noticed the situation in the small courtyard. Passers-by were all attracted by the young man's exquisite and domineering marksmanship, and there were endless applause. For some reason, the young man suddenly felt unhappy, as if his treasured treasure was being coveted by others.
There were more and more people watching, the young man suddenly pointed his spear at the ground, took advantage of the momentum to do a somersault, and jumped straight up to the box on the second floor.
The young man was half kneeling on the window sill, his heroic and handsome face suddenly magnified in front of the young man's eyes, and the huge flower in the corner of his mouth exuded a burst of fragrance.The young man opened his mouth, stretched out his hand to catch the falling red flower, and handed it to the young man.
"Brother Ajin, this is the biggest and most beautiful flower, I give it to you."
The boy's black and white eyes were bright and misty, and his slender eyelashes trembled slightly, exuding a strange demeanor.Before the young man took the red flower, the young man's body suddenly softened and he leaned back. He was about to fall down the second floor.Jian Shigeng's armor hit him, but his heart was soft.
The middle-aged man next to him looked at it, and couldn't help muttering secretly: "You said it wasn't your little daughter-in-law, you lied to a ghost!" After that, he raised his eyebrows when he saw that the two of them were not paying attention, and decided to throw away all the remaining wine. drink up.This is Jinyaochun, which can only be brewed in 300 years, and only available in the imperial palace. This time, I can only drink it thanks to Ajin's blessing. Next time, tsk tsk, it will be hard to say next time.
The young man looked at the boy who was soundly asleep in his arms, and sighed softly: "Oh, master, I'll take Chao'er home first, you can do what you want."
"Yeah." The middle-aged man was only focused on drinking, and nodded indiscriminately, so he didn't care what the young couple were doing.After the two left, only the sound of the middle-aged man drinking and belching was left in the box.
These three people are none other than Lu Jiuxian, Duanmu Jin, and Li Chao seven years later. Why did the three reunite? Speaking of it, there is still a story.
Li Chao was ordered to accompany Duan Muyu to study in the Imperial Academy, where he spent three years in peace.According to the tradition of the Wanshi Xian Dynasty, the prince had to move out of the Eastern Capital and build a mansion in the feudal land before he lost his crown.So the 19-year-old eldest prince had to prepare to build a fief and build a mansion and perform the ceremony of a weak crown. He didn't have to go to the imperial school, and Li Chao naturally returned to the barracks.
There was another person who came back with Li Chao, Lu Jiuxian.It turned out that he was one of the three masters of the Imperial Academy, teaching the six arts of stature and imperialism. It is hard to imagine that such a bold and unrestrained man like Lu Jiuxian would obediently nest in this small place as a teacher. The story behind it It must be thrilling.
Li Chao once secretly asked Duanmu Jin the reason. According to A Jin, Lu Jiuxian seemed to be hiding from someone, saying that he had committed an unforgivable sin and had no face to face that person. Only then will Lu Jiuxian bring the little Duanmu Jin around in the clouds (tao) (nan).
Li Chao stroked his chin and began to make up his mind thoughtfully.The woman who can make Lu Jiuxian commit serious crimes is either beautiful and shameful, or ugly and overwhelmed. At the scene of a car accident, Li Chao has some evil intentions and wants to announce Lu Jiuxian's location to the world. Just to take a look at the shocking scene.
Unexpectedly, when Li Chao met the legendary wife in the near future, the three views were refreshed again.Not only did he miss the beginning, he didn't even guess the ending.He never thought that this teacher's wife turned out to be an out-and-out man!Master, what kind of outrageous things have you done, I don't want to pay off your debts for you!
Li Chao was carried all the way back to Duke Huguo's mansion by Duanmujin.The two wives were enjoying the cool under the shade of a tree, when they saw Duanmu Jin appearing from a distance, they just stood up and apologized, but did not step forward.Duanmu Jin also nodded in response, and then walked towards Li Chao's room familiarly.
The two wives have long been familiar with such a situation. Presumably, the above situation has happened many times. Faced with such a result, the two of them don't know what to think.Obviously Li Chao was sent to the eldest prince's side, but he finally walked closest to the third prince.In the past two years, the eldest prince and the second prince have been conferred the title of king successively. Seeing that the third prince is also a weaker crown, and was preparing to entrust the land and palace, this Eastern Capital is about to change.
The Li family is loyal to the country and disloyal to the army. No matter who is the emperor, the Li family will do everything they can to assist them. It may be said to be extremely stupid and loyal to outsiders, but it is a rule passed down from the ancestors of the Li family. Down the foothold of this.This kind of loyalty not only comforted the emperor, but also made the royal family afraid.
Duanmujin carried Li Chao into the room, and did not leave immediately, but sat by the window and watched for a while.The room was very hot and stuffy, so he took off Li Chao's armor and drew a breeze to dispel the stuffy heat for Li Chao. The latter comfortably rubbed his pillow, turned over and continued to sleep.Suddenly, a messenger bee appeared in front of Duanmujin. Lu Jiuxian sent a message saying that he had something to discuss. He hesitated for a moment, carried Li Chao to the place where the two wives were enjoying the cool outside, and gently put him on the recliner.
"The room is stuffy and hot. I'm afraid that Chao'er won't be able to sleep well. Please ask the two ladies to take care of her. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
"What did Ajin say? Chao'er is my son, and it's only natural to take care of him. But since you have something to do, I won't keep you, Aunt Qiu, send Ajin out."
In front of the Li family, Duanmujin never regarded himself as the third prince, but met him as a junior. This made Gongsun Qingxi and Liu Qianran very happy. The most impatient of these red tapes, otherwise, with the frequency of Duanmu Jin's door visits, the entire Li family would be tossed to death.
Liu Qianran brought a fan from the maid, and while fanning Li Chao, chatted with Gongsun Qingxi.Li Chao fell into a drowsy sleep, and heard something vaguely.
"Look... sleep like a little pig..."
"It's not... well, I don't know who this child looks like. He has a big heart and doesn't take anything to heart..."
"Hey, it's really...it's said that Zhizi is more like a mother..."
"I heard that another refugee was about to enter the city, and was beaten back by the Habayashi Guard, causing many casualties..."
"Hey, there's no other way. Dongdu is so big. They all come in... What should we do... The battle ahead is tight, and I don't know how the master is doing. There hasn't been a letter for two months, right?"
"Don't worry...it's not the first time...the last time...the war was tight...has it been half a year?"
"No news is good news... Li Xiao and Li Mian... come back."
"Teacher's letter...one month...two people...fast...future..."
"The Huaiyang family has another... Li Cheng... princess... happy event..."
Li Chao fell asleep again in a daze during the conversation between the two.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Li Chao was awakened by Liu Qianran's gentle shaking.
"Chao'er, Chao'er, wake up, it's time to have dinner. Your cousin and sister-in-law have already arrived, and Li Cheng is clamoring to see you, but he can't stop him." As if to confirm Liu Qianran's words , Li Chao had just got up when he was suddenly knocked into his arms by a small cannonball, which almost knocked him down with great strength.
"Little uncle, little uncle! Cheng'er misses you to death! Does little uncle miss Cheng'er?" The four-year-old Li Cheng is [-]% similar to Li Chao back then. people like it.Li Chao reached out to ruffle Li Cheng's shaggy hair and narrowed his eyes.
"I think, Cheng'er is so cute, of course my little uncle misses you!"
Looking down at the short Li Cheng, Li Chao inexplicably felt a sense of superiority. He who was always being patted by others finally had a day to stand up. This feeling was not to mention very refreshing.He bent down and hugged Li Cheng in his arms, his expression darkened: "Cheng'er, you're getting fat again! If you get fatter, you'll become a piggy!"
"Shame, Cheng'er is not a pig, but the little uncle. Daddy said, the little uncle is a lot fatter than Cheng'er at Cheng'er's age. Hmph, the little uncle is a deceitful person. You think I'm A three-year-old child, Cheng'er won't be fooled."
"Okay, okay, you are not a three-year-old child, you are four years old, you are a big kid!" When someone mentioned the black history of the year, Li Chao blushed, and while silently chanting childish words, he gritted his teeth with hatred for his cousin.Didn't he just punish him once when he was a child, so there's no need to hold grudges like this.
"Come on, Cheng'er, come to grandma and ask your little uncle to change clothes, and we will have dinner later." Liu Qianran waved to Li Cheng, but the little guy refused to buy it, and depended on Li Chao's life and death.
"No, Cheng'er has one or two... I haven't seen my little uncle for many days. Cheng'er wants to be with my little uncle. There are no hills in the mountains, and the heaven and the earth are united. How dare I...well, separate from my little uncle." The little guy counts. Not so good, I didn't learn poetry well, and used it indiscriminately, causing many jokes.
"Mother, it's okay, let Cheng'er follow me. You go to work first, and I will take him to dinner later."
Li Chao hugged Li Cheng and walked towards his room. Little Li Cheng patted Li Chao's back and shouted like riding a horse: "Drive! Drive! Little uncle, hurry up! Drive!"
"Stinky boy, you really treat me like a horse, and you can get down and walk by yourself if you call me again."
"No, little uncle is the best, come, kiss." Li Cheng approached with malicious intentions.
"Stinky boy, you owe me a beating again, don't you dare to slobber my face!" Li Chao growled.
"Hahaha, little uncle, please forgive me, haha, it's...it was Dad who asked me to do this! Hahaha, little uncle..." Li Cheng was still young, and he had been cheating on his father and selling his teammates for 100 years. Dad Qiurong was once again destroyed.
Xiao Tian's strategy to kill the night
After Li Chao took Li Cheng to change his clothes, they came to Xiaohua Hall hand in hand.Because it was a family banquet, everyone dressed casually, so when the two of them came out, they firmly captured the attention of everyone in the flower hall.The big one is heroic, with picturesque features; the little one is innocent, witty and cute, just like a pair of jade and golden boys.
"Come, come, Cheng'er, come to grandma." Gongsun Qingxi and Liu Qianran's eyes lit up, and they greeted little Li Cheng to come to their side. This little guy is more loving than Li Chao when he was a child. Act like a baby when you should act like a baby, and act cute when you should act cute. It doesn't look like Li Chao. Most of the time, his face is paralyzed. Let alone acting like a baby, he has never even had the usual crying and poisoning that children are used to. He looks like an adult, not cute at all. .
Li Chao stepped forward two steps and sat in the vacated seat next to Liu Qianran.
"Brother, sister-in-law."
Li Huaiyang is 30% similar to Li Jingan, gentle and gentle, when he smiles, he will half-close his eyes, giving people the feeling of spring breeze.Xu is to give people a mature and prudent look, he started to grow a beard, a small black patch on the chin, adding a lot of age to him, he is in his early twenties, he looks more than [-].
The eldest sister-in-law Duanmuqing is a typical lady of every family, elegant and refined, gentle and virtuous.She doesn't talk much, she always has a smile on her face, and she doesn't show her teeth. When Li Cheng is mentioned occasionally, she will intervene. Li Cheng eats.Although she is a princess, Li Chao has never seen the arrogance and savagery of any royal children in her. On the contrary, she is surprisingly easy to get along with. Li Chao has a good relationship with her.
The two got married five years ago by decree, and gave birth to Li Cheng the following year. They lived a peaceful and beautiful life together.
Little Li Cheng didn't want to eat after taking two mouthfuls of rice. He put down his chopsticks, ran half a circle around the table to Li Chao's side, and slithered onto his lap regardless of Li Chao's willingness or not.
"Uncle, I want chicken legs."
Li Chao thought he was greedy, so he gave him the chicken leg on the table, the little guy grabbed it with his hand, jumped off Li Chao's body, ran to Duanmu Qing's side, and handed the chicken leg to him. she.
"Mom, you eat!"
Everyone at the dinner table was taken aback, staring blankly at Li Cheng, looking very embarrassed at the little guy.With a blushing face, he murmured softly: "Good food, let mother and younger brother eat."
It turned out that after hearing the doctor's words, little Li Cheng knew that Duanmuqing was happy, and he was about to give him a little brother. He had always envied other little friends to have younger brothers. Seeing that he was going to have a younger brother, he was naturally overjoyed. Even the chicken drumsticks that I like most on weekdays are reluctant to eat by myself, so I want to give it to my little brother.
Almost at that moment, Li Chao saw tears welling up in Duanmu Qing's eyes. Being a parent, there is nothing happier than seeing your children being filial and sensible, especially at such a young age as Li Cheng.Li Chao respected Li Huaiyang in a timely manner: "Brother has given birth to a good son!" Li Huaiyang drank it down and said "um".
Duanmuqing took the chicken leg from Li Cheng and put it on the plate in front of her, but just smelling the chicken leg made her feel nauseous.Gongsun Qingxi was careful, and was the first to find out, and ordered people to remove the plate.Li Cheng immediately showed a disappointed expression.Seeing this, Gongsun Qingxi hurriedly comforted him: "Be careful, your mother is in a bad mood, but she can't eat such a greasy thing. There are freshly made lotus leaf cakes in the small kitchen. Go and bring a plate, and make sure your mother likes to eat that." .”
Little Li Chao didn't know what it meant to be shy, he only heard that his mother loved it, and immediately ran towards the small kitchen non-stop, Li Chao hurriedly ordered Nanting to follow and take care of him, for fear that he would accidentally fall.
"How many months?"
"It's been almost three months." Duanmu Qing caressed her lower abdomen with a shy face.
"Yo, it's been three months, and she's showing signs of pregnancy." Gongsun Qingxi suddenly realized a problem, and hurriedly asked, "Is there someone to take care of me at home? Hey, I'm so confused, those two elders don't know how to take care of others. So , you don’t go back today, just stay here from now on, sister Qian and I can help and take care of you. As for you, you can raise your baby here with peace of mind. If you get bored or bored, let Li Chaoli I promise they will amuse you and relieve your boredom, the two boys are only useful for this."
"Mother!" Li Chao, who was named, was dissatisfied. He was clearly a super strong DPS, so how could he be reduced to the point where he can amuse people?
Liu Qianran waved his hand: "Why don't all three of you live here, you are not outsiders, so why not be polite. It's settled like that."
Duanmuqing looked at her husband, and Li Huaiyang cleared his throat: "Thank you two aunts. In fact, I came here today, that's what I mean. The battle ahead is tight, my father went to the palace to discuss matters, and he hasn't come home for three days. A large number of refugees are coming again, I guess I will be busy. Fang Qing'er is at home alone, I really don't feel at ease, not to mention she is pregnant now, Cheng'er is young, even if the two aunts don't mention it today, Huaiyang You have to be cheeky and ask the two of you for help."
"Why don't you invite me, you boy, you learned a few words of official language in the officialdom, how can you use it on your aunt! Qing'er can live here, we are too happy. Yinyue, Lanmei, you two go to the room Pack it out, clean it carefully, Qinger's body needs to be careful. You don't know, the room you lived in when you were pregnant with Li Chengshi last time, we still keep it for you." Gongsun Qingxi smiled and ordered the servants to go to work: " If you have anything you want to eat, tell your aunt, and I will let them prepare it."
After finishing speaking, Gongsun Qingxi clapped his hands: "Ancestor bless, our Li family
