Li Chengqian returned to Chang'an and was trapped in the palace by Li Er, just because he was slow, after Li Ke saw Li Er, he left the palace and rode straight to Yuezhou, and the remaining three were ordered not to leave. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Chengqian was released by Li Er in the East Palace, and it was better to be trapped next to Li Er than to be released.
In the main hall, Li Erduan sits on the dragon chair, the eldest grandson and Concubine Yang serve the cloth vegetables on the left and right, and in the hall are Li Chengqian, Li Su, and Li Zhi. Dongyang, Linchuan and a few other little princesses.
Li Chengqian didn't want to speak, Li Zhi didn't dare to speak, and the children born of ordinary concubines in Dongyang didn't dare to speak. Li Er on the dragon chair became more and more upset the more he ate. Drop the chopsticks in your hand on the dining table.
"Is there only such a few children in the royal family, Li Ke, Li Tai, Li You, and the three little beasts ran to Yuezhou, where is Changle?" What about Qinghe? What about Nanping? Why don't you pay attention to my father after getting married? Don't go back to the palace during the New Year's holidays? ’
Li Erda lost his temper, and Li Chengqian lowered his head to eat without saying a word. Li Zhi also wants to be high in Li You's state.
'Father, fifth brother, he. . ’
'Zhinu, you dare to say a word. ’
Li Chengqian's threat worked very well, Li Zhi really didn't dare to speak, since this prince's brother returned to the palace, his good days were over. Li Er looked at Li Zhi.
'Lao Jiu, what do you want to say. But it doesn't hurt to say that. ’
Although Li Er promised but said that it was okay, Li Zhi was afraid when he met Li Chengqian's eyes.
'Father, son-in-law thinks, the fifth brother is Yuezhou is the livelihood of the people of Yuezhou, and he can't get rid of himself, and he asks his father to atone for his sins. ’
Li Er nodded, seemingly satisfied, but looking at Li Chengqian, who was bowing his head, Li Er was angry again, smashed a chicken bone at Li Chengqian, and landed on Li Chengqian's head impartially, Li Chengqian did not react and continued to eat. Li Er was angry, and the eldest grandson appeased him, and he didn't care about Li Chengqian.
I received a letter from the people of Yuezhou, in which he praised Yuqing, the assassin of Yuezhou, for his tireless work and search for a way for the people to survive, which can be used as an example for other states and counties to follow. But I always felt a little weird. Yu Qing has seen this person a few times, and he shouldn't have such talent. ’
Li Chengqian held a chicken leg in his mouth and vaguely answered Li Er's doubts.
Because Qian Huan is in Yuezhou. ’
Li Er got angry again because of Li Chengqian and Qian Huan. smashed the chopsticks in his hand at Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian reached out and took it, wiped the handkerchief on the table and sent it back to Li Chengqian.
Li Er took the chopsticks and pointed at Li Chengqian with the chopsticks.
'A prince is so rude? Don't know the truth of eating and sleeping? Besides, if he doesn't have money in Yuezhou, he can't get along with others? ’
Li Chengqian bowed back and acted, but this time he was not silent, but looked up at Li Er.
'Father, not only Yuezhou has Dongting Lake, Luzhou has Chaohu Lake, Suzhou has Taihu Lake, Jiangzhou Raozhou has Pengli Lake, but the history of these four states does not say what they are also doing artificially breeding river crabs and river shrimp, and now the whole Tang Dynasty knows the method of making ice, and they don't see that they sell fish and shrimp. ’
Hearing Li Chengqian say this, Li Er kept secretly scolding the officials of these four states in his heart for being waste, such a person can't compare to Qian Huan and Yu Qing? Li Er lowered his head to eat the food, and did not speak, and the princes and princesses in the palace did not dare to speak. But Li Chengqian seemed to open the conversation box and continued.
'Father, now the five landscape stores in Datang are all supported and supplied by Liu Renyuan, and they are also out of stock for a long time, even if our five landscape stores in Datang are rising, they can't meet the needs of the people. Erchen feels that this artificial breeding is good. Not only does it reduce the risk, but it also brings an income to the people of Datang. ’
'You think I don't understand?' And don't be willing to be in front of me, I saw his hard work last year, and kindly let him go to his Zhang Liang's banner and give him an official position, he never expected that he would refuse me, but to do what the chief soldier of the Qian family's navy and the general soldier of a fishing boat. ’
Li Er was angry together, and the eldest grandson was a little worried about Li Er's body, so he hurriedly appeased. As for Li Chengqian in the hall, he muttered quietly.
"It's still not because the amount you give is too little, Liu Ren is willing to pay 10,000 yuan a year." ’
Li Er was stunned, and the eldest grandson and Concubine Yang were also stunned, 10,000 a year? This money is too much money and there is no place to spend it, but now it's good, using money to buy talents, causing them to be reluctant to enter the court as officials.
Li Er got up and yelled.
"Li Su, Li Zhi, you two get out and prepare the carriage, Yuanhong, who is staying in Huizhuang Qian Mansion." ’
Yuan Hong thought for a moment, and then said.
It was Qian Wan'er, the lord of Yunyang County, and Qian Ce, the acting governor of Huizhuang Academy. ’
Li Er nodded and waved his big hand.
'Go to Qian's house. ’
The emperor went out of the palace, the momentum was huge, and the concubines, the princes and princesses rode no less than ten carriages, and they walked towards Huizhuang.
Huizhuang Qianfu also received the news, Sun Da and Taozi instructed this person to clean up the courtyard, Qian Wan'er also changed into a customized county lord uniform, Qian Ce was dressed in black to teach the costume, and the fat lady was busy in the kitchen with her maid.
Sun Da greeted the emperor and got out of the car, Li Er looked at the red carpet in front of the Qian Mansion and couldn't help chuckling, and waved Sun Da to slap him.
'How can it still be so extravagant.' ’
Sun Da looked at Li Er with a smile.
'It should be, it should be. Your Majesty, please. A few mothers please. Sun Da is not very good at talking, forgive me. ’
Li Er pouted, the entire Qian family belongs to you, Sun will be a man, what to pretend. Li Er walked slowly, this was the first time Qian Huan had come to Huizhuang. Thinking of the past days when the Qian Mansion cleaned up Qian Huan, thinking that the queen was sick by a few boys, Qian Huan knelt in the courtyard to pray for blessings, Li Er sighed in his heart. Why are you so willful, promising not to enter Chang'an in this life.
'Meet Your Majesty. ’
Li Er exempted Qian Wan'er and Qian Ce. Walking through the diameter of the two and walking into the living room of the Qian family, there was no change. What was before, what is now. It's just that Qian Huan's door has a forbidden word on it.
On the upper second floor. Similarly, Pei Nian's room was also labeled with forbidden words, as for Qian Huan's study, it was wide open, Li Er walked into the study, flipped through Qian Huan's table, the watch was gone, and the others were still there. At the very bottom of the drawer, a plan is found.
Li Er was a little interested, what was planned in the plan. After opening it, Li Er's face was a little ugly, and at first glance, it was Qian Huan who wrote it himself, and eight out of ten words were wrong. Li Er looked annoyed, did it in the study for a while, and went downstairs with the plan.
The two large tables on the first floor were already full, one table for the queen concubine, one table for the prince and princess, Qian Wan'er and Qian Ce were also sitting on the table of the juniors, and Li Er wanted to pick up Wan'er.
"Go, go with the queen, Qian Huan is gone, and you won't go into the palace to see me and the queen." ’
Xiao Wan'er saluted and climbed onto the stool next to the queen. Li Er did not order the meal, there were many princes and princesses who had not eaten like this, and they were a little nervous, and Li Chengqian looked at them dissatisfied.
'Eat, what do you think, if you don't eat for a while, there is nothing, there is no supper in Qianfu and the like, that is Qian Huan's privilege, eat now, so as not to be hungry at night. ’
Seeing the crown prince and Li Su, Dongyang and others moving chopsticks, the other princes and princesses did not hesitate. The eldest grandson is very familiar with the rules of the Qian family. chuckled and introduced the rules of the Qian family like a concubine and a princess.
'The Qian family has some interesting rules, it is rare to gather here today, and this palace will talk to you. Don't put down the chopsticks, Qian Huan has no rules of eating and sleeping. ’
Li Chengqian raised his head and glanced at Li Er, Li Er ignored Li Chengqian and continued to eat, the fat girl's craftsmanship was better than in the palace. The royal ladies put down their chopsticks and prepared to listen to the eldest grandson's lecture, and the eldest grandson looked at them across the table and smiled.
The Qian family has a rule, you can't put down the chopsticks when you eat, that is equivalent to eating over, you don't know, let you go once. ’
Seeing that the princesses took the chopsticks again, the eldest grandson put down the chopsticks. Go on.
'There is an unwritten rule in the Qian Mansion, but no one has broken it now, even His Majesty has not broken it, that is, if you enter the door of the Qian Mansion, then your official position and title will not take effect. There is only the relationship between elders and peers. In addition, there are no domestic slaves in the Qian Mansion, only employers and domestic servants, everyone is paid, and all some things must be done by themselves. ’
Qian Wan'er nodded to everyone, and the eldest grandson got up and went to the sofa to finish.
'Eat slowly, I'll eat well.' ’
Li Chengqian also put down his chopsticks, got up and made tea and handed it to the eldest grandson, who nodded with satisfaction. Li Er thought about it, took out Qian Huan's plan in his arms and threw it to Qian Ce.
Read it to me in a moment. ’
Qian Ce nodded and did not speak. Qian Wan'er also put down her chopsticks, and after saluting all the concubines, she returned to her room, and after a while, came out with a wooden box.
The wooden box was very large, and Qian Wan'er had a hard time holding it, but the maids didn't mean to come forward to help, because Wan'er didn't speak. Laboriously put the box on the coffee table in front of the eldest grandson.
Xiao Wan'er wiped the sweat from her forehead and said respectfully.
'Niangniang, Brother Huan said that you and Your Majesty must come to Qianfu during the Mid-Autumn Festival, or summon me to the palace, so I prepared this box for me, saying that it was for Niangniang, Wan'er secretly opened it, and all of it was the medicine refined by Grandpa Sun, most of which Brother Huan asked for you to refine, please do it. ’
The eldest grandson took the box and opened it gently, as Wan'er said, all of them were small medicine bottles. And there's a note pressed under each vial. The eldest grandson opened the note, his face a little moved.
'Niangniang, this medicine has no name, but it is very effective for your condition, three times a day, one pill at a time, do not eat more. ’
The eldest grandson put the note away and opened it again. Looking at such a note, pretending to be Sun couldn't help but chuckle, there was a very cute villain drawn on the note, looking at the watch on his wrist, he knew that it was Qian Huan, and the villain opened his mouth and laughed.
'Mother, eat whatever you want, eat it as jelly beans. I put a lot of nutritional supplements, and Dr. Sun scolded me for a long time. ’
The eldest grandson closed the medicine box and didn't dare to continue to look down, for fear that he would burst into tears. Li Er wanted to see it, but he was hugged tightly by the eldest grandson and didn't let him see it. ’
Li Er turned his head to stare at Qian Wan'er.
'What about me?' ’
Wan'er shook her head, Li Er's face changed instantly, and she looked at the bowl with her teeth bared.
'Really?' ’
Wan'er nodded.
'Your Majesty, but Brother Huan said that you are not as good as your mother. ’
Li Er kept cursing Qian Huan in his heart, and then pointed at Qian Ce.
'Don't eat it, read. ’
Qian Ce put down his chopsticks and sat on the sofa next to him.
'The plan, Your Majesty, there is no way to read this plan, there are many words that Brother Huan himself said, and it is a little ugly. ’
'Read. ’
Qian Ce had no choice but to open his mouth.
'What is breaking Chang'an, there is also a curfew, I don't know how monotonous the people's life is, I can only go to the Qinglou, and I have to worry about being discovered by the wives and concubines at home, and I don't know who set this broken rule. ’
Everyone was stunned, only Li Er gritted his teeth and said.
'Continue. ’
I don't want to think about how boring it is after the people's tea and dinner, you don't let Chang'an let it, don't let it, don't let Lao Tzu get it, I will get a night street in Huizhuang, the lights are bright at night, selling all kinds of snacks, small playthings, as well as clothes, jewelry, the price is cheap, don't ask me to make money, just to let the people earn some pocket money, lively and annoying, and when I build Huizhuang and build a house with glass, attract people from other places in Chang'an to live in Huizhuang, and my night street will be able to rise. When the time comes, let you people in Chang'an climb the city wall and can't get out, and then you can cry. ’
Li Er changed from anger at the beginning to calm, and Li Er knew better than anyone about the boredom after dinner. Li Er asked Qian Ce.
He can say how exactly the night street will be built. ’
Qian Ce shook his head.
'There are some messy things in the back, and I can't understand it, as for the night street Sun Da and Taozi should understand, His Royal Highness King Wu also understands. ’
'Let Sun Da come in, and run away when he sees me, how can he become the same as Qian Huan. ’
Li Er grumbled. Qian Wan'er looked and exited the living room, followed by Concubine Yang, Concubine Yin and several princesses. Concubine Yang held Wan'er's little hand and couldn't help laughing.
'Xiao Wan'er, what are you doing in a hurry? ’
Xiao Wan'er mysteriously made a silent gesture and whispered to Concubine Yang.
'Niangniang, I won't be able to make mooncakes, but I will make cakes, Ahri and they are preparing, let's go steal a little bit, just a little bit. ’
Concubine Yang understood, and Xiao Wan'er wanted to use her as a shield.
In the living room, Sun Da stood opposite Li Er, a little apprehensive. Li Er pointed at Sun Da with one hand.
'How much do you know about the night street. ’
As soon as he heard about the night street, Sun Da was relieved.
'Your Majesty, the villain knows eighty percent. ’
Li Er is very satisfied, eighty percent is enough, and it will be good to find a way to make up for the missing things in the future.
'Sun Da, I want a night street to appear in Chang'an, and the merchants will use your people from Huizhuang, how about it? ’
It can be, but the villain can't do it, the villain knows eighty percent of the small toys, clothes, accessories, etc., but the snacks can't be made, and the money, the owner of the house said, the main selling point of the night street is snacks. ’
Li Er frowned.
'What a snack. ’
I don't know, but I've eaten a few test samples. It was nice to ask. It can be used as a staple food, and it can be used as a snack. ’
'Go and feed me.' ’
Sun Da knelt on the ground with a puff and looked at Li Er very aggrieved.
'Your Majesty, aren't you embarrassed for me, although I have eaten it, but I don't know what ingredients the head of the family uses, I know that there are chili peppers, there are seafood, and there is something called vermicelli, which is made out of potatoes. I don't know how to do it, but I can eat it. ’
Li Er thought for a while, pointed at Sun Da, and looked at Li Chengqian.
'What sin should he be punished?' ’
Li Chengqian smashed his mouth and suddenly laughed.
'Father, be guilty of a capital offense. ’
Then he was slapped on the head, and the eldest grandson beat him, and Li Chengqian wilted instantly. Li Er stretched.
'I live in Qianfu today, you go and prepare, I try it tonight, I don't believe him Qian Huanneng, others can't. ’
Sun Da went to prepare, and Concubine Yang and Wan'er pushed a small cart to the living room. Concubine Yang's face was a little excited, and she looked at Li Er.
'Your Majesty, this is prepared by Wan'er, saying that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, how can there be no pastries, moon cakes are troublesome, so such a cake is made. ’
Li Er's eldest grandson got up at the same time and walked to the cart money, Li Er picked up the cover covering the cake, and a pale yellow cake appeared in front of everyone, just like the moon in the sky, the cake was decorated with various fruits, and the words Happy Mid-Autumn Festival were written with jam in the middle.
Li Er was fascinated, Li Chengqian had already picked up the orange in his hand and was about to do it, Li Er was upset when he saw Li Chengqian's appearance, and kicked Li Chengqian out of the room.
'Get out of here, go and prepare with Sun Da, why am I annoying you more and more. It's a good allegorical pastry, but you just want to eat it. ’
Li Chengqian is gone. Very aggrieved and left, Xiao Wan'er quietly pointed to the kitchen, and Li Chengqian trotted with a saw. Then Wan'er knelt beside Li Er.
'Your Majesty, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. ’
Then everyone in the room knelt on the ground and said in unison.
'Your Majesty, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival. ’
Li Er laughed, although he didn't know what this happiness meant, he could guess one or two.
'Fun. ’
