Zhenning Palace.

Serious and clean, neat and simple, no superfluous colors, no redundant furnishings, it seems that the Hou Wang's Mansion is just a passer-by who temporarily lives here.

After Liu Li saw it, he smiled slightly and sighed: "It is worthy of being the most serious Marquis of Zhenning in the world, this atmosphere is really enough!"

The atmosphere here is a little depressing, maybe everyone is afraid of Liu Li's identity. In every corner of this place, there are obvious traces of cleaning and decoration, it should be that the emperor is coming, and the palace has been cleaned.

The housekeeper, who was old and cautious, received Liu Li cautiously and guided him towards the living room.

"Your Majesty, the prince of Hou has routinely inspected and deployed today, but he failed to come in time, and the old slave will make one or two salutes instead, and I hope the emperor will forgive his sins!"

"The prince abides by his duties, and the housekeeper is also loyal to his roots, how can he blame him?" Liu Li walked into the living room with the housekeeper, looked around and sat down, and watched all the waiters stay in their positions before relaxing.

Liu Li was not very happy with such a vulgar reception, he preferred to see some relaxed smiling faces, and the waiters were relieved to be away from him.

"Fengxing, is my reputation so bad outside?Why do people here seem to be afraid of me?" Liu Li looked at the people who bowed their heads and were silent, and asked Fengxing sideways.

Feng Xing looked around and replied in a low voice: "Don't be too careful, the emperor is said to be gentle and polite, how can he be afraid of you? It should be that the prince is used to being serious on weekdays, and the atmosphere of this palace is so depressing!"

"I hope so!" Liu Li smiled and drank a cup of tea.

Before long, there were hurried and powerful footsteps outside the door, and when I heard it, I knew that it was the prince who had returned.

The light at the door was much darker, and a huge black shadow was projected on the ground, and a muscular man more than eight feet tall walked in.

I saw that he was dressed in black and plain clothes, and only the sword showed his noble and heroic spirit. The eyebrows are fierce, the instruments are extraordinary, the face is dark, and the whole body is solemn. A smell of a general, an ordinary dress, only that temperament is worthy of his noble status.

"Meet the emperor!"

Liu Li put down the teacup and helped the Hou Wang up modestly and politely. "King Hou is polite, please take a seat!"

"Thank you, Emperor!" King Hou asked Liu Li to sit down, and then sit in the second place. "I don't know when the emperor will visit, please forgive me if I miss the welcome!"

Liu Li smiled slightly, "It's okay, it's just inconvenient for me to reveal my whereabouts, and I ask King Hou not to be careless!"

"This is natural, can the emperor go all the way?"

Liu Li nodded and said calmly: "The journey is smooth, don't worry!"

After the two drank a cup of tea, Liu Li made his intentions clear.

"Hou Wang has been guarding the border for decades, it is really hard, I specially came here to comfort the soldiers, visit Hou Wang, and also want to understand some customs and people's lives. Everything is simple and easy to do, but I don't know how to comfort the heroes, and I don't know how the prince thinks about this?"

King Hou thought for a while and replied: "The minister thinks that although soldiers and generals are meritorious, they are also duty-bound, and they do not need any rewards or rewards. Moreover, the emperor's presence here is already the greatest reward for us, so there is no need to bother!"

"The prince is still so straightforward and upright, and he does not want any reward for his hard work, which is really admirable! However, since I have come, how can I come and go at will and do nothing? Since the prince is outspoken and fast-talking, then I will not make many detours! In addition to the fact that I am going to inspect and express my condolences in the next few days, there is still one thing to discuss with the prince!"

Hou Wang nodded, thinking for a moment. "It's already a blessing for us to come to the emperor's relatives, I don't know what else I need to discuss with my ministers?"

Liu Li looked at Feng Xing, and Feng Xing immediately presented an excerpt to the Hou Wang's attendant.

King Hou looked at the cover, already understood the content, and said with a smile: "Before the emperor came up, the queen mother had already written a handwritten letter. The minister knows that the queen mother and the emperor intend to raise the little girl, but this marriage event cannot be arbitrary, and it will take time to observe!"

"This is natural, so I'm here to discuss with King Hou! You see that I came empty-handed, and I didn't say anything!" Liu Li smiled and thought: The queen mother is one step faster than me, but fortunately, King Hou still hasn't thought it through. However, looking at his face, this family affair may not be successful!

"Thank you for your understanding!" King Hou thought for a while and sighed: "The minister has been alone for many years, only the little girl is by his side, and he often dotes on her and does not teach her, which fuels her temper. Recently, I have had a lot of proposals, and I think that the little girl is not suitable for marriage. I refused several sons, for fear that the little girl would cause trouble, and I didn't dare to agree to the prince's marriage, which may damage the reputation of the royal family and hurt the harmony of the monarch and ministers!"

"In this case, this matter can be discussed again, don't worry! King Hou rest assured, I am a person who understands! This marriage does not have to consider the background and situation, and the most important thing is wishful thinking! If my eldest brother and Ling Ai are unwilling, then this is also an empty talk, so you don't have to worry!"

King Hou looked at the emperor happily and said with a smile: "The emperor really understands righteousness and understands people's hearts, and after a while, I will ask the little girl what she means." Please also ask the emperor to know the mind of the eldest prince and understand me so that he can turn around!"

"It's natural!" Liu Li smiled and drank a cup of tea.

Hou Wang thought about it again and again, but after all, he didn't say the words hidden in his heart, but just looked at the sky outside.

"It's not early, please invite the emperor to dinner!"

Liu Li looked at the scenery outside and said with a smile: "The scenery of the palace is good, I don't know why the atmosphere here is so depressing? If the meal prepared for me by the prince is extremely exquisite, then I don't dare to stay longer!"

"The emperor is too worried, and the ministers don't dare to make their own opinions, they all come according to your preferences. If you feel depressed and unpeaceful, then I can ask the musicians in the house to play a song for the emperor!"

Liu Li smiled lightly and put down the cup in his hand. "I've heard for a long time that Miss Nangong is superb, I don't know if I have such an honor?"

Hou Wang was stunned for a moment, and replied embarrassedly: "The little girl does know some, but I'm afraid it's inconvenient today." My daughter suffered from a cold earlier, and now she is bedridden, and she has no honor to help the emperor!"

"It doesn't matter, the most important thing is to love the body. Liu Li thought for a while, and then asked: "I don't know if the prince of Hou can invite the best doctor to see a doctor?" Although this wind and cold are small, they can't be delayed, so as not to aggravate the condition and have no medicine!"

King Hou nodded, his expression darkened a little. "Thank you for the emperor's concern, I will definitely look for a doctor to see a doctor for the little girl!"

Liu Li nodded, glanced at King Hou, and followed the housekeeper to the guest room. Just a glance, just a sentence, he guessed the general outline of the Hou Mansion and the general outline of Qingling.

"Perhaps, there is a way out of this matter!"

Feng Xing looked around and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you have a way?"

Liu Li smiled proudly, "Yes!"

Sitting down and looking at the food on the table, Liu Li suddenly lost interest. When the housekeeper and waiter retreated to the door, Liu Li showed his true emotions.

"Who's giving this recipe, it's not my favorite dish at all!"

"Your Majesty, someone should have done something wrong. If you don't like it, we'll go out and find a restaurant later! Since there is a problem with the food, maybe there is a problem with the food, so the emperor should not eat it!"

Liu Li picked up the chopsticks and tossed a plate of dishes, trying to find something appetizing.

"It's okay, if I don't eat it, won't I refute the face of the Hou Wang?

Fengxing saw that Liu Li was fearless, and had the courage to snatch Liu Li's chopsticks. "The emperor forgives the sin!

Liu Li looked at Fengxing curiously and teased: "Is it difficult, you dare to eat at the same table with me?"

"The emperor is benevolent, righteous, and friendly to the people, why don't I dare?" After saying that, Feng Xing sat down firmly and tried every dish for Liu Li. "Your Majesty, this tastes actually pretty good!"

Liu Li smiled, picked up the spoon and tasted it. "It's not that I don't like the taste, it's that I'm a little resistant to these vegetables. If you like it, then you can eat it!

Feng Xing stood up and obeyed his orders. "What does the emperor want his subordinates to do?"

Liu Li beckoned Fengxing to sit down, then walked to the door and looked before coming in. "You can change your clothes later, and go and investigate this Miss Nangong. Let's see what disease she has, whether it is incurable as rumored by the next generation. Also, find out why she's sick!"

"Yes!"

"What you did last night, I don't care about you. Eat well now, and then go and complete the task!I'll come back to Kexuan later, you go there to find me!"

Feng Xing was speechless for a moment, and lowered his head in embarrassment. Seeing this, Liu Li smiled softly, and sighed as if there was nothing: "The beautiful scenery of a good day cannot be disappointed, the beauty is like this, the food is like this, everything should be like this!"

"Emperor, subordinates"

Liu Li suppressed the feng xing who wanted to get up and ask for sin, and said with a smile: "I'm asking you to continue to taste the food, what do you want to do when you get up? Sit down, do things when you eat, and hand the results to the lotus seeds!"

"Send a message to Lianzi?" Feng Xing was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled.

Liu Li nodded, "It's better to pass it on to her, what's the matter, you offended others?"
