Chapter 140: Born to be a rival
As the prince and grandson, he is naturally surrounded by people who are always in front of him, and there is no mediocrity.
So even in a small place like Lai'an County, a table of decent wine and food was quickly set up.
It's a pity that although the food and wine are good, the atmosphere at the table makes people lose their appetite at all.
Li Ziting was very disgusted with the conditions in Lai'an County, and said dissatisfiedly with slanted eyes: "You two also have a problem, you have to go to this kind of poor countryside where birds don't, I really don't know what you want!" ”
Li Zi'an took a sip of wine and said: "Whether it's a poor country or a wilderness, I didn't invite you here, if you don't think it's good here, then go back to your Yingtianfu!" ”
"Li Zi'an, did you talk to your brother like this?" Li Ziting exploded as soon as he poked it, "Is that how you were taught at home?" ”
Although Li Ziting did not directly say that his tutor was not good, nor did he mention Prince Rui, the word family still deeply stimulated Li Zi'an.
He looked up at Li Ziting, his phoenix eyes tumbling with unknown emotions, like black waves crashing against the shore one after another.
"My family has taught me to be a brother and a brother since I was a child, but no one really told me what to do if my brother is not friendly enough."
When Li Ziting heard this, there was a flash of anger in his eyes.
"It's rare for the three of us brothers to get together, do you have to be like this?" Li Zixun rubbed his forehead a little helplessly, "Isn't it good for everyone to have a meal in harmony?" ”
"I thought so!" When Li Zi'an heard him say this, he lowered his eyes to hide the disgust for Li Ziting in his eyes, "It's a pity that some people just took the wrong medicine, and they can't say it well, and they ruin the atmosphere in vain." ”
Bang!
Li Ziting slapped the table angrily, got up and said: "Li Zi'an, as a junior, you don't know how to go to Brother Xun's house and my house to visit the elders when you come to Ying Tianfu, and you don't even say hello, do you still ignore you?" ”
Strictly speaking, this matter is indeed something Li Zi'an did wrong.
But when he came over this time, he didn't have anything to do, and he thought about going back to Huguang with Shen Tianshu, and going to Yingtianfu was just a pretense.
There are too many relatives and relatives in the city, so he simply didn't go to anyone's house, otherwise once he started, just visiting the door and eating and feasting, he would have to go in for more than a month.
It's a pity that his luck is really bad this time, and he is ready to leave, but he met Li Zixun on the street, and he had to send him back to Anxian, and then inexplicably recruited Li Ziting, a bad star.
Li Zixun also has a headache, although these two cousins are of the same age, it is a pity that they have always looked at each other unpleasantly.
When they were still ignorant children, they had already fought a few times, and when they grew up, they finally wouldn't do it without saying a word, but it was still difficult to even sit together and eat a normal meal.
"I came to Nanzhili this time, I didn't plan to go to Yingtianfu, I came to the Jiang family's old mansion, because of my father's illness." Li Zi'an said coldly, "The reason why I went to Ying Tianfu is also to buy things for my grandmother, and I don't plan to disturb the elders, because I am afraid that they will worry about my father's illness again, and it was not a big deal in the first place, but why did it come to my cousin's mouth and say that people seem to have violated the rules of heaven?" ”
Li Zixun didn't wait for Li Ziting to speak, and immediately interjected to confirm that it was indeed a coincidence that he met Li Zi'an, and Li Zi'an had indeed just bought something from the store at that time.
This dinner can barely be eaten, and no one smashes the cup or bowl and flips the table halfway, it can be said that it all depends on Li Zixun to play a round from it.
Although Li Zi'an and Li Ziting don't like each other, they still have more respect for this cousin who is several years older than them.
After eating a meal for more than half an hour, Li Zixun, who has been making peace, is also very tired.
The main thing is that I am tired.
After dinner, the two of them had nowhere else to go, and there was no decent place in Lai'an County, so even if Li Ziting was unhappy, he still had to be wronged in the end to live in Fan Yuru's rented house.
Just when Li Ziting was picking and choosing everything in the house, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside.
"Who?" Li Ziting asked impatiently.
This ghost place is really unbearable, not to mention the simplicity everywhere, the house is pitifully small, and you can hear it clearly when you knock on the door outside.
"Ziting, it's me!" Li Zixun's voice sounded outside the door.
The subordinate hurriedly went over and opened the door, Li Ziting sneered: "Cousin is really interested, it's not tiring enough to persuade on the table just now, right, I still have time to come to me at such a late hour." ”
Li Zixun waved his hand, sent all the people in the room out, sat down at the table by himself, rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and said: "Zi'an rarely comes over, although you are the same age as him, but you are also a brother in the end, do you have to meet like this?" ”
"Didn't you know me on the first day, and I didn't like him, right?" Li Ziting was lying on the couch, crossing Erlang's legs, looking like he was not stingy, "He is the youngest of us, but he is the only one who has been named the prince of the king, and we are all county kings!"
"Besides, are you really as brotherly as you appear? If you lie to Li Zi'an, that fool, forget it, you don't have to lie to me, who of us doesn't know who! ”
When Li Zixun heard this, he didn't get angry, but put down the gentle smile that had been hanging on his face, tapped his fingers on the tabletop and said: "Li Zi'an used to look for good doctors everywhere, but most of them were limited to Huguang, and now he has found such a young lady, and he has come all the way to the Jiang family's old house to rummage through the medical case, I'm afraid that Prince Rui is really going to die, right?" ”
"It's been dragged on for more than three years like this, what's the point of having a breath? It's better to die early and be born early. Li Ziting rolled his eyes and said, "Li Zi'an is now the prince of the imperial court, and he has the support of the concubine and the princess behind him, as soon as his father dies, he is the rightful heir of the palace...... It's a good life, but if you have to toss and turn, I don't know what he's trying to do! ”
Li Ziting said these words quickly, and the room fell silent.
The first emperor left four sons, in addition to today's saints, that is, Prince He, Prince Ren and Prince Rui, Prince He is weak and incompetent, Prince Ren is extravagant, only Prince Rui's mansion has always been the representative of the royal family in the harmony of husband and wife, and the stability of the back house.
This is also one of the reasons why Li Ziting has always looked at Li Zi'an unpleasantly.
After Li Ziting finished speaking, without waiting for Li Zixun to respond, he said self-deprecatingly: "That's right, if I had such a good father, I would also try my best to save him!" ”
