"Failure, failure," Li Chengyang muttered while weaving bamboo strips.

"It's careless, it's careless," Li Yi lay on the bed beside him, helping him clean up the bamboo strips.

"What's the carelessness? I think it's that you don't take me seriously anymore, tell me about your original cold appearance, how beautiful it is, look at it now, okay, I was hammered by my punch" Li Chengyang took the bamboo strip and slapped Li Yi's body hard.

Yesterday, Li Chengyang was annoyed and angry, rushed to the basement and gave Li Yi a punch, although he retracted his strength, but after all, with emotions, Li Yi lay on the spot and made a fuss, shouting for a long time before he reacted.

Today's Li Yi couldn't get out, so he had to come to give Li Chengyang a hand to brush up on his favor, he was controlled by the gossip heart yesterday, and he was able to say that kind of thing, disturbing the prince's good deeds, he deserved to have such a catastrophe.

The main reason is that the basement is too much in line with his situation, dark, deep, silent, not even a light is needed, all that comes from everywhere is the sound of other people's conversations, and if you don't go out, you know what is going on in the world, and the sense of security is instantly bursting.

That's why he started the journey of death, but now he can only sigh with Li Chengyang.

Li Yi didn't want to hide after being whipped, but tried to change the topic: "Young master, why are you sighing so much, aren't there a lot of people who came there yesterday, our restaurant will definitely be hot, what's not to be happy about."

"What do you know, there are a lot of people, but look at them one by one, the belt is empty, just come for two days, if once it officially opens, then there will be no one left in this group of people, the fire is on fire, but there is no money to earn, what we need most now is not money" Li Chengyang put down the half-pierced paper figure in his hand and continued to look up to the sky and sigh.

"Fast money, I need fast money now, seeing that Grandpa Li Gu's family has been hollowed out, and almost half of the reward money you got is gone, you can't just sit and eat empty."

"You can rest assured that our money is to take it, this is all what the Emperor gave us to support the elderly, and now it is under the young master's door, naturally there is a young master to raise, it is useless for us to ask for money" Li Yizhi showed that he didn't care, money was really nothing to them.

"Then I won't pay back your money, and I won't pay back Grandpa Li Gu's money, and I won't pay back Ma Zhou's money in the future, what has become of me, don't you want me to be a ruffian, no, clean up my bamboo well, you look at the burrs that came out, and cut out my hand again."

Li Chengyang also knew that this group of secret guards didn't need money, they were all killers with some feelings, except for Li Yi, an outlier, no one had the same feelings as ordinary people.

But not needing money does not mean that he can owe, Li Gu is also ready to retire in the East Palace, his pension money, equivalent to 30,000 yuan of silver, was all used by Li Chengyang to buy a restaurant, people will not ask him, but he can't not give it, this is the basic truth.

The restaurant is still tasting for free, Li Chengyang is going to maintain it for three days, and he can attract as many people as he can, it's better than nothing, if the dignitaries don't come for a day, then their profits will not soar, but fortunately, there is some income.

When Li Yi and Li Yi were sighing, Li Shi came from outside and brought Li Chengyang a piece of excellent news:

The group of old men who ate oily noodles the day before yesterday had already prepared enough money and food, and were planning to enter the palace at noon to give all the money.

It's a good thing, they are all some elders who serve the country and the people, if they are hungry, where can they bear it, isn't this another increase in sin for Li Shimin, this is not good, I have to let Lao Zhao go to discuss with them, send the money over at noon, and come to Yuelai Restaurant to sit down, ensure that they eat and drink well, and they can't make the elders of Datang cold.

I couldn't wait, so I left the palace, and when I came to the restaurant, I began to tell Lao Zhao:

"Don't do the food now, you will make some oily noodles in a while, prepare some good Sanle pulp, stir-fry a few of them, the day before yesterday, those grandfathers will go to meet their father at noon today, and come back to eat with us, you must give me a comfortable reception for them."

When he heard that it was the group of old men who forcibly took him to teach cooking, Lao Zhao was a little timid, that group of old men were really cold, they were lingering in everyone's house that night, making oily noodles over and over again, this nightmarish memory is scary to think about now.

"Okay, I'll take them to make the dishes together, don't worry, I'll release the news in a while, these scholars will agree if they want to, it's all about honoring the elderly, you can't give up those old men for them, you can rest assured, it will definitely be done for you."

Li Chengyang nodded, walked out of the kitchen and suddenly glanced back again, and put down a sentence: "By the way, that group of elders who are loyal to the country don't know about this matter yet, you will go to the official road to wait for you to arrange things for a while, you must invite them all over, you are familiar with each other, it is not a big problem."

"Huh? Not, I'm going? Lao Zhao pointed to his big face, quite skeptical of life.

"Of course you, or should I go? Tomorrow the matter of the prince competing with the people will have to be spread, if you agree, then I will go" Li Chengyang pointed to himself, and walked out of the door without waiting for Lao Zhao to respond.

It is not okay to let Li Chengyang come forward in person, and Lao Zhao can only admit that he is unlucky, cover his head and go back to arrange work for everyone.

There is nothing to do when they come out, there is nothing to do when they think left and right, Xiao'er and Li Shi are still busy with their own, and he is not good to disturb, so he can only go back to the East Palace alone.

Before he reached the East Palace, he was called by Li Shimin, saying that he wanted to practice arching and horses with him, and he was preparing to fight the Turks to the death in the coming day.

Only then did I think that this was in the palace, and in the past two days, I really regarded myself as the major shareholder of a restaurant.

is also a little deliberately evaded, the position of the prince is worthy of being a thorn in the flesh in everyone's eyes, his every move will have a great impact on others, the more than 300 lives on the bridge, and the 100 innocent maids in the Yeting Palace, Li Gu who is still lying on his stomach in the Tai Hospital, and Li Gang, who is still grounded.

It's all about the one who suffers because of him, just because of his little impulse.

After the bridge incident, countless people praised the prince and the young hero, and the people said that His Majesty has a successor, and the prince who can sacrifice his life to resist foreign enemies is not a good chance and will not be able to huo the people, Xiao Cheng Duan Zan and other generals will be beaten every day, and Li Chengyang has unknowingly become the child of someone else's family who once hated the most.

Since then, Li Chengyang began to avoid Li Shimin intentionally or unintentionally, he was afraid that he would make any mistakes again because of his impulsiveness, so as to drag others down.

Who knew that he was approached now.

The day before yesterday, Li Shimin had plans to openly train his troops, but he did not take action, who knew that he was waiting here.

Reluctantly came to the Daming Palace, which was the place where the old men were entertained before, this place is wide, and it is quite suitable for small-scale crowd gathering.

Li Shimin stood on the high steps, wearing a helmet and armor, wearing a military uniform, holding a bow and making a gesture, the bow did not know when it was handed down, and most of the gold on it had fallen off, and the whole piece of work was black and yellow, and it was indescribably ugly.

In Li Chengyang's eyes, the ugly bow is not the same at all in the eyes of others, especially the hundreds of civilian soldiers standing in the square below at this time, most of the tiger's eyes are red at this time, and some people's tears are beginning to slide down their cheeks.

"I, since Jieli retired from the army, I can't sleep at night, and I can't wait to kill the grassland with my own hands to avenge this, but! I can't, I have people to take care of, and the Tang Dynasty to protect, so I thought about it for two days and two nights, and I had to entrust you with the task of killing the grassland, hoping that you can avenge me for this, and I will thank you in advance."

Li Shimin waved the bow arm in his hand and began to give a short speech, and for a while, the sergeants below were all enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to enter the red knife with Jieli white knife immediately.

Li Chengyang also came behind Li Shimin at this time: "Dad, I'm here, who are you?" ”。

Li Chengyang saw a big bow about two meters long on the side, where is this still a bow, isn't this a miniature version of the bed crossbow, the transportation of the bed crossbow requires dozens of people, and it takes several wrestlers to pull the bowstring together.

And the two-meter-long bow, it is estimated that it will take two people to pull it apart, looking at the bowstring with the thickness of the little finger, I don't know if it is a few cow tendons stirred together, it is difficult to think about it.

There is no need for Li Shimin to order, only he can pull such a bow now, take off the bow by himself, and lift it up, otherwise his height of six meters may not even be able to hold a bow.

Just when Li Shimin was full of interest and was about to personally instruct everyone in archery, an old man who came out of nowhere walked over tremblingly, and looked, yo, I still know, isn't this the doctor of the Ministry of Rites who beat Li Chengqian's hand board in the Guozi Prison.

I saw the doctor slowly come to Li Shimin's side: "Your Majesty must not, since ancient times, there has been a saying that you don't see soldiers, not to mention that hundreds of people below are armed with sharp weapons, in case someone goes crazy or has two hearts, Your Majesty is in danger, if there is any case, it is a danger to the country, and Your Majesty can't be careful."

"Aiqing's words are serious, they are all the people of my Tang Dynasty, that is not loyal to me, brave and loyal, I and the soldiers have a heart-to-heart relationship, there is no suspicion of each other, how can my soldiers have two hearts for me, and it is even more impossible for me to have the heart of murder" Li Shimin reprimanded the doctor sharply.

The soldiers below were furious one by one, eager to devour the doctoral student alive, and some even said that they were willing to die.

"But, Your Majesty," the doctor wanted to say something, but was rudely interrupted by Li Shimin.

"Shut up, I, a Tang soldier, how can I let you be so insulted, come on, take this chaotic minister and thief down for me, demote the official and remove him from his post, remember his old age, and exempt him from punishment, okay, go down" Li Shimin gave an order and let the old doctor go to the official hat, and from then on he was a concubine.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is wrong, Your Majesty" The doctor was dragged all the way to the Daming Palace, and he wailed all the way.

It's just that Li Chengyang is a little surprised: Why does this doctor not rain just thunder, the howl is louder than anyone else, but he hasn't seen a single tear, and he can even see the old man's face with a hint of joy?

Ah, it's a bit of a thing to say here, but it has nothing to do with Li Chengyang, so there's no need to think about it anymore, it's better to have more than one thing.

Drove away Dr. Guozijian, Li Shimin raised his bow: "Raise the bow for me, you all have targets in front of you, give me ten rounds first, and then I will instruct you in archery, today's winner will give you a sword, a sword, a brocade, Qian I don't have it, there is some silk, you have the ability to take it from me, okay, let's start."

Then he turned his head to look at Li Chengyang: "Prince, you also go down to practice, I heard that your archery skills are terrible, go down and let me see, it's okay if it's not good, just practice more."
