Chapter 097:-for-tat

Changping was dumbfounded, scratched his head, glanced at the prince without saying anything, and then turned his face to look at Li Taiwei, secretly wondering what in his heart.

Mrs. Li's face darkened slightly, and she hatefully snatched the green smoke tea wrapped in oil paper from Lu Xiao's hand, and heard Lu Xiao pretend to be calm:

"I haven't closed the door of my own cabinet tightly, and I have so big eyes ...... white."

Hearing this, Changping breathed a sigh of relief, but the prince's expression was faint and he couldn't see anything.

Mrs. Li couldn't guess how true Lu Xiao's words were, thinking that this family had only been to his own house twice, so he couldn't really even know this, right?

Thinking like this, he was a little relieved, glanced at Lu Xiao, and rarely didn't quarrel with him. rolled up his cuffs and personally made tea for the prince and Changping.

Qingyan tea is a royal tribute, precious and extraordinary, and extremely particular about the heat, each brew must be properly handled.

Everyone looked at Mrs. Li's smooth movements, and they were suddenly a little dumbfounded.

The prince looked at the clear tea soup handed to him, was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say:

"Lord Chonghua...... Can even make tea? ”

Changping was also shocked at the moment, Li Taiwei had been playing with her since she was a child, and she didn't know that Li Taiwei was still hiding this hand! Hurriedly took a cup and pushed it to Li Taiwei to beg for a cup of tea.

Mrs. Li poured another lamp for Changping and chuckled:

"I learned some from my mother in my spare time."

When the prince heard this, he was even more surprised:

"My cousin also cooks tea?"

Li Taiwei was stunned in her hand, thinking about it, she really can't blame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for being so surprised, her mother is Princess Xiliang, and she is afraid that few men in Da Zhou can match her riding skills, but when it comes to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she can't put it on the table.

At that time, her grandmother saw that it was not a problem, so she was taught to make tea.

I never thought about this hands-on thing, but I liked it very much, and the tea art practice was superb, even her father Li Sheng was full of praise.

Li Taiwei has been around her mother since she was a child, and if she really talks about it, this tea-making skill can be regarded as a leader in the circle of nobles in the capital.

"My mother's tea art has been praised by the Queen Mother, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is afraid that he will have every opportunity every day, so he has never paid attention to it."

Mrs. Li smiled and teased the prince, and raised her hand to signal him to try it.

Before the prince could stretch out his hand, Lu Xiao took the lead and tasted it in the surprised eyes of everyone.

Under the gaze of the prince's strange eyes, Lu Xiao was serious and said:

"It is the duty of a courtier to test poison for His Highness."

The prince turned sideways, glanced at him with a cool eye, raised his eyebrows and said:

"How do you remember...... When you were in Li Xiang's study, you didn't do your duty like this......"

Lu Xiao's fingertips holding the tea stiffened for a moment, which made the prince's heart ache.

Before he could find an excuse to prevaricate, a person was added to the door that made him even more distracted.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince! Princess Changping! ”

Ming Cheng bowed, and when his eyes fell on Lu Xiao, who was dressed in gold armor, his eyes sank by two points.

"Mingcheng?"

The prince's eyes lit up, he got up to greet him, patted Mingcheng on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"When did you enter Beijing? Why hasn't anyone heard about it? ”

Ming Cheng had a smile on his face, and it only dimmed for a moment.

"Back to Your Highness, I only arrived at the end of yesterday, and I haven't had time to enter the palace to say goodbye."

Changping also stepped forward to make a salute, and happily called his cousin.

The prince glanced at Ming Cheng, noticed something, turned his head to look at Li Taiwei, and asked:

"Do you still have something to hide from your house?"

When Mrs. Li saw that the prince was so unexpectedly in the Li family, she knew that her father had not mentioned to the prince that her aunt had made peace with the king of Fenyang.

Thinking that the old bastard of King Fenyang really can't be put on the table, and there is Changping here, it is naturally difficult to talk about it. Besides, since her father didn't mention it to the prince, he had his own concerns, Mrs. Li thought about it for a while, and smiled at the prince:

"My cousin entered Beijing this time to run for next month's Jin Wuwei selection, I wonder if His Royal Highness can make it convenient?"

As soon as Prince Minghua heard Li Taiwei's words, he became suspicious in his heart.

Ming Cheng is not from Lu Xiao's general's background, he is a descendant of the royal family, and he is the son of the king of Fenyang, and he will come from someone who can attack the title, how can he enter Jinwuwei to fight a way out?

Looking at Mrs. Li's expression carefully, it didn't look like she was laughing with him.

Ming Hua thought for a while, and couldn't help but think of the king of Fenyang who asked his father to bring him to Meizhou many years ago, and his brows furrowed.

He intuitively felt in his heart that Ming Cheng's entry into Beijing to run for Jin Wuwei was probably related to him, an unreliable Uncle Wang. Mrs. Li didn't mention this matter, but she was afraid that Ming Cheng still had something unspeakable.

Ming Hua looked at Ming Cheng fixedly and asked:

"Have you figured it out? Jin Wuwei is his father's personal guard, and the army does not recognize your title as a son, let alone your royal title, and his daily training is extremely hard, this matter is ...... Do you want to discuss a thing or two with Uncle Wang? ”

When Ming Cheng heard the prince mention his father, he couldn't help but sink his face and hugged his fists:

"Your Highness, there is no need to discuss this matter, the minister is willing to share the worries for His Majesty!"

Seeing that Mingcheng was so resolute, Minghua was even more sure in his heart before he guessed that eight or nine would not be far from ten.

Seeing that the prince's face was a little looser, Mrs. Li quietly gave Changping a look.

Changping understood, stepped forward to hold the prince's arm, and said flatteringly:

"Brother Huang...... You should answer Mingcheng's cousin, and we will take care of it in the palace in the future! ”

Minghua pulled out his sleeves with disgust, glanced at Changping, and said:

"It's because it's easy for you to walk in the future, right?"

"What? The last time you sneaked out of the palace, you really don't know about it? ”

Changping's expression froze for a moment when he heard this, and he immediately laughed dryly, turned his face away and snorted:

"It's all my own brothers and sisters, and I don't expose people's shortcomings......"

Minghua smiled suddenly:

"I'd like to show people something about your strengths, do you?"

Changping turned his face and glared at the prince angrily!

I gritted my teeth and thought about it for a moment, but I really didn't think of anything good at it for a while. But the momentum has already reached this point, if she doesn't say anything, where should she put her eldest princess's face?

Thinking of this, Changping turned around sharply and nodded at Mrs. Li's trust, the meaning was obvious: I rely on you to give this princess a long face today!

Mrs. Li was slightly stunned for a moment, and before she had time to think about it, she blurted out:

"The princess climbs the tree, that's a must!"

"A tree more than five feet tall went up in a few clicks!"

Lu Xiao took a sip of tea, almost choked when he heard the sound, his eyes swept at Changping coldly, and he said:

This is true...... That time I almost didn't cripple the prince of Beishuo......"

Princess Changping looked at Li Taiwei in disbelief, and then looked at Lu Xiao:

"You two are together now?"

Mrs. Li glared at Lu Xiao slightly, her eyes were like knives, and she grinded her teeth and said:

"Someone...... Give me the crane top red...... The county mainly personally made tea for Lu Shizi......"
