Chapter 320: Stealing chickens and touching dogs on the eve of the crown ceremony
The dedicated crown ceremony is the top priority of the Li family, and it is natural for Yu Zhining to be a guest since a few months ago, firstly, he is old and highly respected and knowledgeable, and secondly, because the Li family is about to marry the Yu family, so the so-called crown ceremony decided to be a guest three days before the ceremony, but in fact, it is just a formality.
As for the praiser, he was naturally snatched by Lu Guogong's office. According to his words, even if it is because of the relationship between his son Cheng Bohu and Li Jingye, he should be a praiser. As for the three people who were in charge of holding the crown next to him, the distant travel crown, and the cloth crown tray, they were naturally Cheng Bohu, Xue Dingshan and Qu Tu Zhongxiang.
The three people who are usually the most active rehearsed for several days, and in the end they all shouted that they couldn't bear it, and even reading, which they were most afraid of on weekdays, seemed to have become an easy errand. This crown is the most important ceremony in a man's life, and the whole ceremony requires the wearing of elaborate garments, and the time from fasting to the final crown is at least several days. At the thought of having to come to such an experience in the future, the three of them naturally all looked like dirt.
And Li Xian, who is usually the most gloating, has no interest in laughing at them at this time - Li Jingye, as the eldest grandson of the Li family, this crown gift is of course first-class and complicated; However, when he was crowned in the future, the ceremony was even more complicated, and the thought of having to be at the mercy of a man like a wooden man for several days made his scalp tingle. Not to mention anything else, just after visiting the two rehearsals in Li's house, he fully understood the lengthy and terrible nature of traditional rituals.
Although he is just an idle character, as Li Jingye's number one friend, he is also the prince of the dynasty. The position on the viewing platform is naturally in the forefront. Asked in Li Jidi. After his father and mother approved, he reluctantly stayed in Li's house seven days before the crown ceremony, and practiced the ability to sit upright. Fortunately, when there is nothing to do in the afternoon, Li Ji often pulls him to play. That's why the two legs didn't go away.
Living in someone else's house, naturally don't expect someone to warm the bed and sleep with him - of course, even if Li Ji arranges it, he doesn't dare to accept it. He endured six days and six nights of loneliness, and that night he was holding a glass of wine in a daze with a sad face, but he only heard the sound of a rope outside. Just when he was wondering, he saw that the window door was suddenly pushed open, and a figure rushed in quickly.
No, this dignified mansion of Li Ji will actually enter the snitch?
He copied the heavy copper wine cup and was just about to smash it, but he saw the figure that entered through the window, and was stunned for a moment, and then reprimanded angrily: "Dedication." What's the matter with you, why don't you go through the door and go through the window? ”
"Shhh
Li Jingye sat down on the recliner. Then he began to rub his arms and legs, and finally said helplessly: "The old man is still used to you." There are chairs and recliners in the room, and I can only sit on the floor, and even when I lie down, someone will say something disrespectful, and I don't see that I am tired all day! Damn, I'm going to just use the incense to turn those servants over, or I won't be able to get out now! ”
"A crown gift will let you be like this, my mother will have silkworms every two or three years, isn't it even more unbearable?"
Thinking of Empress Wu's energetic appearance, Li Xian felt that this old mother was really amazing. The queen's gift of silkworms, as an example of women in the world to persuade silkworms, must fast five days in advance, and preset the silkworm altar three days in advance. is such a tedious business, and his mother actually came three times one after another.
"That's the queen, I can't stand it!" Li Jingye instinctively reached out to grab Li Xian's wine, and only after being glanced at was he gave up in a sneer, and simply leaned on the pillow with his hands comfortably, "Cough, I originally thought that it would be good to be an adult, but now it seems that I am still happy to be a child." By the way, the old man refused to say, do you know what kind of official I want to award? ”
According to Li Xian's assumption, he naturally hopes to set up an official position for Li Jingye in King Pei's mansion, but in fact, he, the prince, has nothing to do, and if he gets Li Jingye in again, it will delay the future of others in vain and waste human resources.
"You yourself don't want to learn the literature and take the Jinshi, who knows which one you can make up for?" Li Xian didn't know about this matter by himself, so naturally it was not good to play any guarantees, and when he thought of the place from the center, he didn't come up with an ugly figure in the end, and finally waved his hand angrily, "Even if you look at the face of the master and his old man, he will not let you go to the chores, you can rest assured!" ”
"Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Li Jingye glared fiercely, and then sighed for a while. You must know that the crown ceremony was followed by the wedding, and from then on, he officially broke away from the ranks of golden bachelors, and then he wanted to look for flowers and willows, but he was afraid that he would be nagged to death by Li Ji. Although he is not dissatisfied with Zhining's granddaughter, he naturally does not like to be controlled, and he will inevitably feel depressed again.
Li Xian looked at Li Jingye there and sighed, and couldn't help but laugh secretly, and was about to take care of a few words, when the window that had just been closed by Li Jingye was suddenly pushed open again, and three figures jumped in a row. Faced with such a scenario, even he
Huh, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching a few times. Well, these days, I really don't go through the door, I have to come in through the window.
As soon as Cheng Bohu landed, he saw Li Jingye on the recliner, and immediately stepped forward in three or two steps and slapped him on the head, seeing that there were no other seats around, he immediately sat on the ground regardless of it, and then said in a rough voice: "You two will be happy, damn it, you were really tossed to death!" The thought that I'm going to be here again in a year and a half makes me panic! ”
Xue Dingshan and Qu Tu Zhongxiang glanced at each other and sighed at the same time. Although it is still early, they will have such a day sooner or later, even if according to the level of the official, this crown ceremony is simple and complicated, but it is estimated that it is not much simpler. So, the five people in the room sighed in unison.
Just as a group of people sighed, there was a knock on the door outside without warning. At this time, not to mention that Li Xian was startled, the four people who sneaked out were even more stunned, and they all looked at where there was a place to hide. There is absolutely no way to hide under the couch in these years, so looking for it, Cheng Bohu ran behind the shadow of the pillar, and Li Jingye, Qu Tu Zhongxiang and Xue Dingshan hid behind the curtain.
At this time, Li Xianfang went to open the door in full clothes. At this time, there were only a limited number of people who came to look for him, and no matter who it was, it was impossible not to find the four big living people in the house, so these four guys hid in vain. However, as soon as these two doors opened, he was stunned, and it was none other than his master, Li Ji, the British Duke of the Imperial Court.
Li Ji didn't seem to see the extra shadow behind the pillars, and the curtain that suddenly swelled out, so he just said plainly: "Come with me, I have something to tell you." ”
Although it was a little inexplicable, under Li Ji's solemn gaze, Li Xian still followed. As soon as he left with his front foot, the four people rushed out with their back feet, looked at each other for a while, and Cheng Bohu asked Li Jingye puzzledly: "What did the British Duke do when he called Liulang away at this time?" ”
Of course, Li Jingye doesn't know about this kind of problem. At the moment, Qu Tu Zhongxiang, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, suggested going with him to take a look, although Li Jingye felt that it was inappropriate, but after all, he couldn't resist the curiosity of others, so he took them to follow quietly.
"Lao Su of Liangzhou just sent a letter over, saying that the situation of Tuyuhun is very bad, and Princess Honghua even sent a message saying that if Datang does not send troops to help, I am afraid that she can only take King Tuyuhun to Datang to escape."
Li Xian didn't expect Li Ji to suddenly talk about this, and his brows furrowed. He originally thought that by detaining the ambitious Qinling in the Tang Dynasty and arguing with officials at all levels, he would be able to delay the process of Tubo's military advance, but now it seems that he is really a little taken for granted. However, he had just thought of this, and Li Ji next to him added another paragraph.
"By the way, Lao Su met Pei Xingjian again there, he has been training in the Western Regions for so many years and has made great progress, so Lao Su inevitably taught him a few more tricks." When he said this, Li Ji stroked his beard, and seemed to be very happy that Su Dingfang and his disciples had renewed their old relationship, and suddenly glanced at Li Xian, who was thoughtful. Although he is a prince, his apprentice is also not bad, except that he is a little lazy, and there are too many ghost ideas.
"You seem to be busy lately?"
Hearing such a sentence without a head or brain, Li Xian immediately had a trace of vigilance in his heart, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Li Ji's face was full of lightness, not like he meant to ask for guilt or warning, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. However, before he could swallow this breath, the old fox seemed to be deliberately playing a game of bungee jumping, and coldly uttered a terrifying sentence.
"There's been a lot of mess lately, do you suspect that someone is making trouble behind it?"
At this moment, Li Xiandeng was a little embarrassed, saying no, he was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he obviously didn't trust Li Ji; But if so, what should the old fox do if he opened his mouth and asked him who he suspected? In fact, he still seems to be blind, although Shangguanyi Liu Xiangdao is not authentic, but if this matter is said to be these two plans, even he himself does not believe it.
"It's okay to look up, but sometimes, don't forget to look down. The capable people in this world are not necessarily those in the court! ”
Li Ji smiled and put down a sentence, and suddenly turned around and shouted: "You four, come out for me!" ”
Li Xian turned around in astonishment, and after a while, he saw the four people slowly revealing their figures, and he couldn't help but be angry. With their little ability, they still want to track Li Ji? Sure enough, Li Ji strode forward and scolded him, and the four of them could only slip away.
In the blink of an eye, Li Ji suddenly turned around, stuffed something into Li Xian's hand without saying a word, and immediately walked away, and the inexplicable Li Xian didn't see what it was until the other side of the room.
It was a scroll, and it was neither the art of war nor an ancient book, but a note of Li Ji's life for decades!
