Chapter 51: The Coconut Wind Can't Stop It
The person who came was Baihu, he went to the West Market to invite Hamid, and the two returned to Guangdefang together. I heard that there was a fire in front of me, and the two of them also came to take a look. By the time they arrived, the saving had already passed.
Li You was surrounded by everyone in the middle, and the white tiger naturally noticed it, although he couldn't believe that the prince would take the risk to save a civilian, but the prince had always acted unscrupulously, and he could do this kind of thing.
Seeing that the prince's hair had been burned off a lot, and his clothes were also burned piece by piece, Baihu felt distressed for a while, and couldn't help crying.
The Tang Dynasty was a society with a strong sense of hierarchy, and it was unthinkable for a dignified prince to save ordinary civilians regardless of life and death.
"Lord Wang, it's really Lord Qi. O benefactor! At this time, quite a few people in the crowd shouted.
They are the family members of the Western Expeditionary Army, since Li You's eating method cured the eye disease of the soldiers of the Western Expeditionary Army, and helped the Western Expeditionary Army win the battle, many soldiers and family members of the Western Expeditionary Army regard Li You as a benefactor.
At this moment, Li You's heroic feat deeply moved them, and everyone knelt down one after another to pay tribute to Li You.
When the Wuhou and the people saw someone taking the lead, they also knelt down together.
Xiao Wanyu and Du Mei were very embarrassed, and when they saw everyone like this, they had no choice but to salute Li You with everyone.
At this moment, Li You was a little excited and a little remorseful. He's just a foodie, and saving people doesn't seem to have anything to do with eating. He was deeply worried that he had recently taken the initiative to help with disaster relief, and today he was hot-headed and took the risk to save people, which was a serious violation of the principle of foodies enjoying food safely.
However, seeing yourself become a hero, the thrill of being a star overrides the remorse in your heart. He said: "Everyone, get up, you can't do it enough." β
When he saw that the people were all standing up, he saw that he was disheveled and quickly left with Hamid.
When the people saw him go, they saluted him again.
Li You faced the people just now, he wanted to be low-key and modest, so he had to pretend to be forced. But at this moment, when he turned his back to the people, he couldn't help but laugh proudly.
The white tiger said playfully: "Lord Wang, the villain will inform our palace in a while, let's hold a feast." β
Li You smiled proudly: "Yes, eat, Lao Tzu is a rich man, the whole house is a treat, eat." β
Hamid couldn't understand this Lao Li a little, but he felt more and more that Lao Li was a trustworthy person. He smiled and said, "Lao Li, let's eat here with me today." β
After Li You left, Xiao Wanyu and Du Mei took the child to the orphanage. On the way, both of them were silent, and no one took the initiative to speak.
Embarrassed.
In fact, since the victory of the Western Expeditionary Army, Du Mei began to feel embarrassed and didn't know what to think of Li You. Her father, Du Xinyuan, the head of the household, praised Li You many times at home, thinking that he was a rare talent in the Tang Dynasty. Du Mei was even more embarrassed. Every time she was with Xiao Wanyu, she felt pressured to avoid talking about anything related to Li You.
Helplessly, Li You's ghost is still gone, what bread, tea, treatment, disaster relief, in Chang'an is boiling, you can't plug your ears. To paraphrase an advertising slogan: the coconut wind can't stop it!
Today, he was slapped directly in the face in front of Xiao Wanyu.
After finishing the affairs of the orphanage, the two rode home, and on the way, Xiao Wanyu finally couldn't help but ask: "Is that person really so unbearable?" β
Du Mei didn't know what to say, and remained silent. Then, until the two broke up, they never said a word again.
Shaw House.
Xiao Dongchang is Xiao Qian's eldest son and has always lived with Old Man Xiao. Before dinner, he went home to see his father, only to see his precious daughter talking to his grandfather.
Xiao Wanyu usually greeted her father with a smile and was very courteous, but when she saw him today, she just stood up and said, "Father." "There was no sound.
Xiao Dongchang asked, "What's the matter, Yu'er, you look so unhappy?" β
Xiao Qian said: "Yes, Yu'er doesn't know what's wrong today, she pouted when she came back, and she didn't say anything when I asked." β
Xiao Dongchang said excitedly: "Yu'er, tell you a happy thing, the King of Qi is about to leave Chang'an after the Dragon Boat Festival, and his father has already gone through the relevant procedures for him to go through the relevant procedures of the AttachΓ© of the Qi Palace." β
Xiao Wanyu's face became more and more ugly, and the tears swirled in her eye sockets a few times, and finally fell.
Xiao Qian hurriedly asked, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you today, what's going on, tell grandpa." β
Xiao Dongchang also looked at her nervously.
Xiao Wanyu stood up and said, "Grandpa, daddy, granddaughter will go back first." After saying that, he made a blessing and walked out.
Xiao Dongchang felt inexplicable and asked, "Father, what's wrong with this child?" β
Xiao Qian said: "When the child is older, it's time to find her a husband." I told her today that His Royal Highness King Wei invited me to preside over the Dragon Boat Festival Poetry Conference. When the time comes, the young talents of Chang'an will come to participate, let her take a good look, and choose a wishful man from them. As a result, her face was full of displeasure. β
Xiao Dongchang nodded and said, "In this way, father, it seems that His Majesty is planning to use his father during the Dragon Boat Festival." It's just this right servant shot, can you accept it? β
Xiao Qian used to serve as a left servant, but after being dismissed, the position of the left servant has been vacant, and at the end of last year, Fang Xuanling served as the left servant.
Xiao Qian said confidently: "What about the right servant, the old man has arrived in Shangshu Province, and his words still don't work?" "His self-confidence is grounded, Fang Xuanling has always been Xiao Qian's subordinate before, and the left and right servants are not subordinates, but they are just ranked differently.
Xiao Dongchang asked, "Father, why did you agree to King Wei's invitation?" You also know that King Wei is against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince everywhere, and I am His Royal Highness the Prince's person, don't you make me embarrassed? β
"Hehe, Chang'er, you don't understand this. I think that the intelligence of the King of Wei is much higher than that of the crown prince, and His Majesty's favor for the King of Wei is well known to everyone. The outcome of the battle between the two of them is unknown. The so-called 'eggs can't be put in one basket', I protect King Wei, you protect the prince, no matter who wins in the future, the status of our Xiao family will not be affected. Xiao Qian said with a smile.
Xiao Dongchang was surprised and asked, "Father, you are so far-sighted, the child is respectful." But why did you anger Your Majesty so much that you were demoted five times? β
Xiao Qian smiled and said: "You, you still don't know Your Majesty, your father is an old minister of the former dynasty, not a confidant of Your Majesty." If I had been submissive, I would have been completely abandoned by His Majesty. Only when I am upright can I have influence and be able to gain a foothold in the court. You see, isn't Your Majesty going to use me again? β
"So it is, the child is taught." Xiao Dongchang said admiringly.
Xiao Wanyu returned to her boudoir, leaning on the edge of the collapse, her mind was very confused, and the figure of Li You, the king of Qi, appeared in her mind from time to time. She shook her head vigorously, trying to chase away his shadow, but the shadow stubbornly appeared in front of her.
