Chapter 123, there is no way to do it
[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, the first day of the fourth month, the time of Xu, Daming Palace]
Li Ci entered the side hall, and then bowed to Li Chongsheng and said:
"The son of the emperor greets his father!"
When Li Chongsheng saw Li Xi, he was overjoyed, and he immediately ordered:
"Xi'er is here, sit!"
Gao Liangshi had already taken a leather pestle from behind him and placed it beside Li Xi.
After Li Xi sat down, Li Chongsheng immediately asked:
"Xi'er, why did you come here in the middle of the night, why did you wear so little?
"I just met the fourth brother outside, and I saw that he was still coughing, so I put a leather robe on my body and put it on the fourth brother!"
"What about yourself, be careful of freezing!"
"It's okay, father, the son's body is strong!"
As he spoke, Li Xi stood up, and in this side hall, he made a few punches and kicks. Of course, in Li Chongsheng's eyes, his son's fists and feet are not even fancy fists and embroidered legs, they are just a few strokes.
However, Li Chongsheng watched it with relish, and his originally deep and cold eyebrows finally gradually showed a smile like a spring breeze.
Among his more than a dozen sons, Li Chongsheng only has two sons, the first is the third prince Zhao Wang Li Yi, and the second is the eighth prince, Jin King Li Xi.
Every time Li Chongsheng saw these two people, he couldn't help but feel a sense of joy and joy in his heart. He always felt that only these two sons were very similar to himself. Whether it is Li Yi or Li Xi, their figures are so handsome and handsome, their appearance is so young and refined, and most importantly, the kind of handsome temperament they exude is no different from their young self.
Seeing that Li Ci was already a little out of breath after only a few movements of his fists and feet, Li Chongsheng hurriedly smiled and said, "Okay, okay! I know that your health is good, sit down quickly!"
Li Chongsheng turned his head and instructed Gao Liangshi:
"Go to the imperial dining room, get some supper, I want to talk with Xi'er while eating!"
After Gao Liangshi nodded and received the order, he immediately ran out of the hall in small steps, and after only a moment, he led four attendants in, two attendants carried food boxes, and two attendants carried a small table. Inside the food box, there were four exquisite desserts, four fresh side dishes, and two bowls of osmanthus white fungus soup carefully prepared by the imperial chef.
The waiter carefully placed the small table in front of Li Ci, and placed the exquisite snacks and side dishes in the food box on the table in front of Li Chongsheng and Li Ci respectively, and then bowed down and retreated.
Gao Liangshi himself also quietly disappeared in the shadows between the pillars of the temple.
So, the father and son, in the side hall of this dormitory, used a supper together......
While eating, the two chatted casually about some family life, and the atmosphere in the side hall was extremely harmonious, as if it was the same as the father and son of ordinary people's families.
Li Xi was not polite, and ate the white fungus soup, golden silk lotus root leaf ball, fine jujube lotus seed matsutake soup, these exquisite dim sum soup in front of him, Li Chongsheng saw this, and suddenly felt that his appetite was great, so he also ate a lot.
Li Ci saw that his father did not mention the matter of today's early dynasty, so he never said anything, just blindly ate and drank, and accompanied his father to chat.
It wasn't until half an hour had passed that Li Chongsheng suddenly asked:
"Xi'er, what do you think of your sixth brother?"
"Sixth brother...... Li Ci put down the dishes and chopsticks, and then replied:
"He is also a man of temperament! It's just that he is a little more playful! Sometimes, while he is playing, he may forget about himself, and he has the identity of a prince!"
"Actually, the sixth brother is nothing more than opening a Cuiyun Building in Chang'an City. The biggest pity of the sixth brother is not that he opened a brothel without permission, but that after he opened a brothel, there was no one around him who knew how to admonish!"
Li Chongsheng nodded frequently when he heard this, and then asked:
"What would you do if you found out about it?"
Li Xi picked up the chopsticks again, took a mouthful of side dishes and put them in his mouth, chewed for a while, and then said casually:
"If I know this secret of the sixth brother, I will immediately persuade the sixth brother to let him transfer the Cuiyun Mansion to the household department, or the Jingzhao Mansion! I think that the business of the Cuiyun Building is so good, if it is turned into an official office, it will be able to add a lot of silver taels to my treasury every year! If this is the case, the opening of the Cuiyun Building by the sixth brother is not only not a scandal, but also a great achievement?"
Li Chongsheng didn't feel good in his heart when he heard it, he put down the dishes and chopsticks, was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but say sadly:
"It's a pity that you didn't know the secret of the sixth child, otherwise ......"
Li Chongsheng shook his head, and when he thought of Li Zuo's voice and smile before his death, he couldn't help but feel a little sad, and his eyes moistened slightly.
"Father, keep the dragon body, don't be sad!" Li Xi hurriedly persuaded.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Li Chongsheng wiped the corners of his eyes, and then asked: Rainbow Literature Network
"Xi'er, how are you preparing for your sixth brother's funeral?"
"Father and emperor rest assured, the sons and ministers are ready, just wait for the auspicious day to arrive, and the funeral will be carried out!"
"Okay, good, you've worked hard for this!"
"Father, the retainers have always felt that although the sixth brother is a little playful, he is a very good person! Before the sixth brother was alive, he always treated his sons well, and he often sent some interesting things to his sons...... Now, it is an honor for Erchen to be able to personally handle the funeral of the sixth brother! Erchen should do his best to hold a beautiful funeral for the sixth brother!"
"It's just that I have already said that the funeral ceremony of the sixth child is simple and ......"
"Father doesn't need to worry, sons have their own proportions!"
"Okay, good, your sixth brother can have a younger brother like you, presumably he knows what he knows, and he should be glad to hear it!"
......
......
On this side, the emperor and the father and son of King Jin were talking happily in the Daming Palace. On the other side, the notorious "and alloy fairy" Mao Jiaojiao was trapped in a narrow wire cage, let her roll and jump hard, kicking and beating with her claws, but she couldn't break out of the iron cage at all. She meowed, still at a loss.
It turned out that on the night of March 29, Mao Jiaojiao couldn't help but feel the spring in her body because she hadn't done the "art of harmony" with a man for three days, so she went out late at night again and came to Chang'an City, waiting for an opportunity to "hunt for beauty".
As usual, she turned into her original body and jumped on the roof of the roof of the house in Chang'an City, as if she were walking on the ground. Whether it is the forbidden army in the capital or the Tsing Yi guard, even if they see her appearance, they are just an ordinary little cat, and no one will attract attention.
Mao Jiaojiao searched for a long time in the city, but due to the curfew, there was not a single pedestrian on the street. In the corners of bridges and alleys, she occasionally saw a few sloppy beggars, but she hated the smell of those beggars, so she did not try to charm them.
Thousands of households in Chang'an City, in the middle of the night, most of them have turned off the lights and gone to sleep. When Mao Jiaojiao jumped on the roof, she suddenly saw a big mansion in front of her, and the lights were still on in the house at this time. Intrigued, she crept up to the roof of the great mansion and slipped through the eaves into the walls.
Mao Jiaojiao crawled slowly on the wall, paying attention to check who the owner of the room was? She vaguely saw a man in the study, who was holding a scroll and watching, the man had a long beard, and he was not young, but he looked quite elegant, and this temperament was also very "appetite" for Mao Jiaojiao......
At this time, the time is coming to an end, and the time is approaching, Mao Jiaojiao has been looking for so long, and finally found such a passable-looking man who is relatively cleanly dressed, she naturally will not let go. At that moment, she quietly jumped out of the yard, and was about to sneak into the study, reappearing as a human body, when she suddenly saw a pair of big hands, but out of nowhere, she grabbed her petite body, and before she could react, she was stuffed into an iron cage by those "big hands".
"Haha! You 'cat demon' was finally caught by me, right?" a child's immature voice came from behind him.
Mao Jiaojiao looked in horror, but saw that the person who grabbed her was just a teenager!
Mao Jiaojiao immediately scolded loudly: "You fart child, let go of Aunt Ben! Otherwise, if Grandma goes out, she will have to pick your skin!"
However, the child only heard the little flower cat in the cage meow several times.
"Tong'er, you're naughty again!Go to sleep!" came a man's warm voice from the study, and then the door of the study was opened, and a man in his fifties walked into the courtyard.
"Daddy, look, I've caught the cat demon!" said the boy, holding up the iron cage, and boasting to his father.
"Good, good, my son is the best!" said the boy's father, with a kind look on his face.
"The cat demon has been caught by you, so you can go to sleep now, right?"
"Daddy, this is my new mouse cage, I originally wanted to catch the noisy big mouse at home, but I didn't expect to catch this cat demon!"
"Well, Tong'er is really amazing! The cat demon has been caught by you, so our capital will be peaceful from now on! Tong'er, let's go to sleep, okay?"
"Okay!"
......
The father, thinking that he loved his child very much, coaxed and deceived him, and finally brought the boy into his inner chamber.
And the iron cage where Mao Jiaojiao was accommodating was casually placed in a corner of the yard by the young man.
Since then, Mao Jiaojiao has been trapped in an iron cage, and she has been practicing for thousands of years, but there is no way at all.
It turns out that after cultivating the human body, the mortal demons will rely on the human body and wantonly collect the essence into the body from all things in the heavens and the earth to enrich their own true essence. Therefore, as a demon, if you want to urge your own spells, you should rely on your human body, if you turn into the original beast form, the original god is trapped in the beast body, even if you have a thousand years of Taoism, you will be no different from an ordinary beast.
Therefore, there are ancient books, and there are often golden carp in the river. If the golden carp is caught by the fishermen, it will say that he is the embodiment of the dragon king, and sometimes she is the daughter of the dragon. With the dragon clan's ability to reach the sky, once it turns into the original body, in addition to being able to speak people, the rest cannot exert the slightest mana, which is exactly the reason.
Naturally, the same is true of Mao Jiaojiao at this moment, except for her who can still speak, the rest is no different from an ordinary little cat.
However, at this time, her mana is unable to be used, and if she suddenly speaks, she is afraid that there will be no benefit except for frightening the child. Therefore, even if Mao Jiaojiao was trapped, no matter how angry she was in her heart, she had to "meow" and scream, not daring to say half a human sentence.
Mao Jiaojiao couldn't help but regret it in her heart, she said in her heart, I knew this was the case, why didn't I change back into a human body earlier?
However, she would never have imagined that in the middle of the night, in the dark yard, there would be a child hiding, and the child had prepared a "mouse cage" for her!
"Hey, what's going on!"
Mao Jiaojiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
