Li Xiu and the two little guys were stealing roasted corn, and suddenly heard a sound behind him, so frightened that he almost threw the corn in his hand into the fire, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian, the two little guys, jumped up in fright, but when they turned their heads, they found Ma Ye standing there with a smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Ahem~, Uncle Ma, can you stop being so scary, I was almost scared to death by you!" Li Xiu pounded his chest and coughed a few times, just now he was so frightened that he almost sucked the corn kernels into his trachea, in this era, maybe this kind of trivial matter will kill people.

"Hehe, this is corn? It smells good! I saw that Ma Ye ignored Li Xiu's complaints, and immediately walked over and said with a smile, he was here to find Li Xiu, but when he went to Li Xiu's house, he found that Qi Niang and Xiao Ya were learning embroidery with Yi Niang, but Li Xiu took Li Chengdao and the two out, so he looked outside, and found it when he smelled the fragrance outside.

"Uncle Ma, you have to eat and roast yourself, now is the time when the corn is the most tender, and if you don't eat it, you will be old." Li Xiu picked up a corn cob and handed it over, Li Chengdao and the two broke a total of six, originally two per person was just right, but now Ma Ye can only give up his own.

Ma Ye was not polite, and immediately learned from Li Xiu to find a thin stick to put the corn on the skewers, and then put it on the fire to roast, but while roasting, he asked: "Didn't I remember that the princess said that she would keep all the corn as seeds, and you are not afraid that the princess will blame you if you eat it secretly now?" ”

"I'm afraid, so we don't let the princess know!" Li Xiu said with a natural expression, but his words caused Li Chengdao and the two little guys to snicker together, it is estimated that it is the first time they have seen someone so afraid of their aunt.

"What are you laughing at, you know, we are actually trying corn for the people of the entire Central Plains, after all, corn is an alien species, no one has eaten it before, what if it is poisonous, so we must have the spirit of Shennong to taste a hundred herbs, you know?" Li Xiu saw Li Chengdao and the two snickering, but at the moment he taught a lesson, in his previous life, he was a person who had mixed up in the shopping mall, and a mouth that could reverse black and white This is the minimum requirement, otherwise how can he step on someone else's position?

"Yes! Thank you sir for the lesson! Li Chengdao immediately said seriously when he heard this, but Li Chengqian next to him was a little worried and asked, "Sir, what if we are poisoned, this corn won't really be poisonous, right?" ”

"Stupid, corn is the main food of the Mayans, isn't there a Quyi girl in the family, people used to eat corn every day, how can it be poisonous!" Without waiting for Li Xiu to speak, Li Chengdao reprimanded in a low voice, but his words also indirectly exposed Li Xiu's righteous and awe-inspiring lie just now, which made Li Xiu feel very shameless.

"Haha~, there must be a disciple if there is a teacher, the king of Anlu is really more and more like you, this slippery head is exactly the same!" Ma Ye next to him saw this, and couldn't help laughing at the moment, in fact, he had already discovered that Li Xiu's influence on Li Chengdao was the greatest, if the prince really succeeded to the throne, then Li Chengdao would be the future prince, which was also a good thing for Li Xiu.

After a while, the corn in Ma Ye's hand was also roasted, and at that moment he peeled off the charred coating outside, and gnawed the corn on it like Li Xiu, and as a result, a sweet taste overflowed his mouth, which made Ma Ye also couldn't help but praise the deliciousness, and gnawed the corn kernels on it in a few big bites, and then took the remaining corn cob and asked Li Xiu: "Can you eat this?" ”

"This can ......"

Li Xiu wanted to say, "This can be used as feed for livestock", but as soon as he said the first three words, Ma Ye stuffed the corn cob into his mouth and took a bite, and then said while chewing: "The inside is not very delicious, a little grinding teeth, but it's okay, at least it's better than the bark." ”

Li Xiu was stunned to watch Ma Ye chew the corn cob for a long time and swallow it, but he couldn't say anything in the next half of the sentence, although the taste of the corn cob was a little worse, but it didn't have a big impact on eating, it was regarded as supplementing cellulose, maybe it was also conducive to laxative.

Seeing that Ma Ye even ate the corn cob, Li Chengdao and the brothers next to him were also very curious, picked up the corn cob they had just gnawed and bit it for a long time, but they still couldn't bite, after all, they didn't have as good teeth as Ma Ye, so they had to give up and continue to roast their second corn.

After the corn was eaten, Li Xiu asked the two children to extinguish the fire with soil, and then asked the two of them to go home first to review their homework, because he knew that there must be something wrong with Ma Ye coming to him, and he also signaled himself to let the two children leave just now, which must be related to the affairs in the court.

Sure enough, after Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian left, Ma Ye immediately said with a heavy face: "The prince finally began to fight back, this time the king of Qin suffered a big loss and lost part of Ningzhou's military power, originally the army in the northern frontier has always been in charge of the king of Qin, and now Ningzhou's military power is lost, which is equivalent to being opened by the prince in the northern frontier, I am afraid that it will lose more in the future!" ”

"Why is it so fast, does King Qin just watch the loss of military power in his hands?" Li Xiu couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, it had only been half a year since Yang Wen did it, but now Li Shimin had begun to decline again, and this change was too fast.

"King Qin is also careless, some time ago, His Majesty suddenly handed over part of the government affairs to him to take care of, which made King Qin mistakenly think that His Majesty's attitude had changed, so he put all his energy on government affairs, but the prince and his family found an opportunity to win the military power of Ningzhou in one fell swoop, and all the henchmen of King Qin in Ningzhou were transferred, and a major event happened in the court, which dealt a fatal blow to King Qin!" Ma Ye said slowly, he could only talk to Li Xiu about these things.

"What's the matter?" Li Xiu couldn't help but ask curiously when he heard this, he hadn't seen Li Shimin during this time, and he didn't expect so many things to happen in the court.

"Pei Lin finally made a statement, and openly supported the prince in the court, this time the King of Qin's military power in Ningzhou was seized, Pei Lin also contributed a lot, with Pei Lian's prestige in the court, his statement immediately attracted many neutrals to turn to the prince, and now the court is almost dominated by the prince's family, and the people of the Qin Wang's family can't stand at all!" Ma Ye said heavily, Pei Lin is known as the first prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and even to some extent, his attitude is more important than Li Yuan.

"Pei Lian, he still chose to support the prince!" Li Xiu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, it seems that he didn't take his previous warning to heart, but it's not strange to think about it, after all, Pei Lian had been secretly supporting the prince before, and it was already too difficult to get out at this time, so I am afraid that he could only follow Li Jiancheng.

"It's normal, the crown prince is orthodox after all, and he has the support of His Majesty, and now even Pei Lin has expressed his position, it can be said that the situation in the court has become clear, and then it depends on how to deprive King Qin of his military power little by little!" Ma Ye also said with some emotion at this time, he is a military general, although he is not from Tiance Mansion, but he also admires Li Shimin very much, not to mention that half of their women's army supports King Qin.

Li Xiu was silent when he heard this, the more unfavorable the situation was to Li Shimin, the heavier his heart became, of course he was not worried about Li Shimin, in fact, he didn't care about the life and death of Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng, but with the unfavorable situation, Li Shimin was likely to launch a coup d'état in advance, and then Chang'an City would be full of blood, how should Princess Pingyang deal with herself? These are the things that give him a headache.

"Boy, King Qin lost, I guess you have to prepare wine and food again, maybe he will run to you to get drunk, then you have to be measured, don't say anything to King Qin that shouldn't be said!" When Ma Ye said the end, he couldn't help but show a serious expression and said, he knew that Li Xiu was soft-hearted, so he warned in advance.

"Uncle Ma, don't worry, King Qin's affairs have nothing to do with me, and I won't get involved in their disputes!" Li Xiu assured with a smile at this time, but under this smile, there was an incomparably heavy feeling.

"By the way, when will your uncle come back, and his house will be built?" Ma Ye suddenly thought of something at this time, and immediately asked, Zhang Shiyi wants to live in Chang'an, and Li Xiu promised to build him a house, but this matter was finally handed over to Ma Ye, after all, there are craftsmen in the princess's mansion who build houses, which is far easier than Li Xiu to find it himself.

"Come on, I estimate that Qu Yi is about to give birth, and the uncle and the eleventh brother should return to Chang'an before she is born." Li Xiu was also a little uncertain at this time.

On the one hand, he wanted to go back to escort the things brought by Nanyang to Chang'an, and on the other hand, he also wanted to bring Zhang Shiyi here to get married, but this time it was a few months, and he didn't come back until now, and Qu Yi's belly was getting bigger day by day, and Li Xiu was also anxious about it.

"That American woman named Qu Yi is alone in Chang'an, it's really pitiful to say, and the bearded guest is too unreliable!" Ma Ye usually sees Qu Yi often, because she has a good relationship with Princess Pingyang, and she always goes to the princess to chat with Yi Niang, and she is familiar with it after coming and going.

"This is also true, it's to blame Zhang Shiyi, the bastard, who ran away when he made someone's stomach bigger, and almost caused a big disaster, but fortunately, the uncle resolved the storm from the danger." Li Xiu couldn't help but complain a little when he heard this, now Qu Yi lives in his house, and he usually takes care of him, as if he made someone's belly bigger, which also makes him full of resentment towards Zhang Shiyi.

But when he said this, Li Xiu suddenly thought of something, and suddenly burst out laughing, which made Ma Ye a little inexplicable, and then Li Xiu couldn't help but smile and whispered a few words in Ma Ye's ear, but Ma Ye was also shocked after hearing it: "Is this serious?" (To be continued.) )
