Chapter 105 What a level! Are you also sitting at the same table with us?
Li Yin, whose interest was piqued, immediately set off and planned to go to Jianghu Restaurant to give it a try.
Before leaving, Liu Ye was still a little hesitant.
He specifically told Li Yin, "Sixth Prince, the Prince of Hengshan County is very favored by the Saint. You must not learn from the Prince of Qi and cause trouble in the Jianghu Restaurant..."
"Don't worry about that. I have received a favor from my nephew today and I will definitely not cause trouble for his restaurant." Li Yin said with a smile.
Liu Ye nodded. He thought that this king’s credibility was guaranteed and he always did what he said.
As for the excessive hunting in his fiefdom and his refusal to change despite repeated warnings... Li Yin had never promised Li Shimin that he would never do it again. At most, he would grit his teeth and take a beating before admitting his mistake.
At dinner time, Jianghu Restaurant is extremely popular.
When Li Yin went there, there was already a long line in front.
"Why are there so many people..." Li Yin muttered with a frown.
"Liu Lang, you don't know that this is the rule set by the Prince. No matter who comes to eat, they have to queue up." Liu Ye explained to him.
Li Yin nodded and said, "Since it is the rules set by my nephew, I will abide by them."
At the end, he even tried to save face for himself by saying, "Selling face to my nephew."
Liu Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Li Yin would suddenly follow Li You's good example and do something stupid.
In fact, he didn't agree with Li Xiang killing Li Yuanchang and Hou Junji.
According to his thinking, Li Xiang is just a twelve-year-old child, how capable can he be?
It's just that the saint favors him and gives him some fame.
But after all, he had owed the other person a favor and his mother had instructed him to do so, so Li Yin did not want to offend Li Xiang.
Li Yin can still listen to his mother.
As soon as he got off the carriage and received the license plate, he was recognized by Li Jingren.
"King of Shu?"
Li Yin turned around and saw that it was Li Jingren, so he smiled and said hello: "It's Jingren, why are you here?"
"This is my brother's property, so of course I have to be here."
Li Jingren said with a smile, and looked at the number plate in his hand again. Just as he was about to speak, Li Yin asked him a question.
"Brother? Is this Brother Jingheng's property?" Li Yin asked doubtfully.
Wasn’t it said to belong to Li Xiang? How is it related to Li Jingheng?
"Hahaha, the brother I'm talking about is Chang'an's timely rain, Hengshan County Prince Li Xiang." Li Jingren said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please give me your number plate. If you want to eat, you can go to the private room and don't need to queue with them."
He was a little surprised. Given Li Yin's bad temper, he could actually queue up obediently? The sun really rose from the west.
"I see." Li Yin smiled suddenly, it would be good if he could avoid queuing.
Then he asked curiously, "Brother? Jingren, logically speaking, you and I are of the same generation, why do you call a younger person brother? Besides, you are four or five years older than him..."
"What do you know!" Li Jingren said impatiently, "Brother is a man of great integrity. He is the white jade pillar that supports the sky of the Tang Dynasty and the purple gold beam that spans the sea in Guanzhong. How can a fool like you know that?"
"you……"
Li Yin choked and almost suffocated.
Li Jingren is also a member of the royal family. They grew up together and he can't do anything if you say something to him.
After all, in terms of kinship, Li Daozong is his uncle, and Li Jingren is also his cousin, and they all have the same surname, Li...
"Jingren! Jingren!" Cheng Chubi shouted from inside: "Come in quickly, we are waiting for you!"
"Here it comes!" Li Jingren said with a smile.
Then he looked at Li Yin and said, "Your Majesty, just follow the waiter upstairs. I will leave you now."
"Hey, since you're all here, why don't we play together?" Li Yin knew that it was Cheng Chubi who called people just now, and he also wanted to integrate into this small circle and play together.
Li Jingren smiled distantly and said to Li Yin, "Your Majesty, please make yourself comfortable. Today is not very convenient. Let's do it another day, another day."
There is a feeling in the conversation that "No matter how high your status is, you still want to eat with us".
It's not that Li Jingren was arrogant. First of all, Li Yin was an adult vassal king, and they tacitly regarded him as the emperor's grandson Li Xiang, so naturally they would not get close to Li Yin. Secondly, because Li Yin usually did a lot of illegal things in his fiefdom and had a bad temper, everyone looked down on him, so they were unwilling to take him to play together.
Li Yin opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.
Now that people have said so, what else can he do?
After Li Jingren left, Li Yin turned back with a disappointed look to look for Liu Ye, but found that a few playboys he knew before were chatting nearby.
When he looked closely, he recognized two of them, Liu Zhenghui's youngest son Liu Xuanyu, and Yin Kaishan's adopted son Yin Yuan.
The so-called adopted son is a son who is adopted under one's name.
The ancients’ clan system was more important than blood ties, and adopted sons had the right of inheritance. Typical examples are Sima You and Guo Rong… that is, Chai Rong. The former inherited Sima Shi, and the latter inherited Guo Wei, the founder of the Later Zhou Dynasty.
In fact, his name should be Guo Rong, but the Zhao family did not do good things. After usurping the throne, they changed his surname to Chai...
When he saw someone he knew, Li Yin immediately stepped forward and greeted him.
It’s so boring to eat alone, you always have to call some friends over.
Liu Xuanyu and Yin Yuan were not particularly familiar with him, they had just played together a few times before.
But after all, he was the King of Shu, so it was not good to be too cold to him. He just treated him with respect while being distant.
Li Yin noticed the estrangement between the two, but he didn't care too much.
After hearing the two complain about waiting in line for too long, Li Yin smiled and said, "I happen to have the box number plate that Jingren gave me. Why don't we go together?"
"Really?" Liu Xuanyu's eyes lit up, and then he smiled thoughtfully and said, "That's right. After all, you are the sixth uncle of the Chang'an Master, and he will always take good care of you for the sake of his face."
"Yes, if my eldest nephew hadn't pleaded for me when I entered the palace today, the emperor would probably have beaten me to death." Li Yin couldn't help but sigh.
When Liu Xuanyu heard that Li Xiang had personally pleaded for him, his eyes lit up even brighter.
It seems that the King of Shu has a special relationship with Prince Chang'an...
Thinking of this, he also had an idea.
"In that case, I will respectfully obey your command, Your Majesty, please."
"Please!" Several people walked into the restaurant's private room and heard a commotion next door.
Seeing Li Yin's expression, Yin Yuan said with some envy: "Next door is Li Jingren and his group of noble children who are on good terms with the prince. They usually hang out in the restaurant. The prince is really generous. Everyone gets a share of the restaurant. It's about a hundred strings of cash a month!"
"It would be great if we could play with the prince like them..." Liu Xuanyu also sighed.
Li Yin was a little confused. Could it be that his nephew was so charming?
He didn't know the charm of the Tang Dynasty Succubus 2.0 version yet, but he was just wondering why so many noble children admired Li Xiang.
"Hey, how difficult is that?" Li Yin began to brag, "My nephew and I are very close, it's just a matter of a word."
Li Yin didn't think much about it when he said this, but he regretted it as soon as he said it because everyone in front of him took it seriously.
"Really?" Liu Xuanyu and the others immediately said with great joy: "If Liu Lang is willing to help us to follow Master Chang'an, we will be willing to die!"
Ah this...
Li Yin really didn't expect that he was just bragging out of politeness, but others took it seriously.
But since the boasting had already been made, Li Yan could only continue to brag: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Cheng Chubi's loud voice from next door.
"You don't know that when brother went to Hou Junji's house, the situation was extremely critical. After all, old Hou Junji was a soldier, so how could he just sit there and surrender? When brother stepped into the main hall, Hou Junji roared and rushed towards brother, but brother remained calm and stood there motionless, allowing old Hou Junji to rush forward."
"When Hou Junji came forward, my brother kicked him in the face. Hou Junji groaned, flew backwards and hit the wall heavily!"
"Good!" The playboys next door immediately cheered, "Brother is worthy of being a brother. Even though that old man Hou Junji is full of tricks, he can't escape your sharp eyes!"
Cheng Chubi's loud voice rang out again: "After my brother subdued Hou Junji, the Black Armored Soldiers immediately stepped forward and tied up Hou Junji tightly."
"When they met the saint, my brother angrily rebuked Hou Junji and made him feel ashamed. In the end, he regretted so much that he ran into a wall and died in the Liangyi Palace!"
"Good! Good job!" All the playboys cheered immediately. No one tried to find fault with him - how could Li Xiang, a twelve-year-old boy, kick Hou Junji, a general who had been fighting in the army for many years, away with one kick.
"Great! You really are worthy of being the Young Master of Chang'an!" Yin Yuan exclaimed in admiration, and he didn't even notice the bug.
Liu Xuanyu also said: "Who says it's not true? We still need to rely on the king to talk to us."
"Okay, okay. I'll introduce them to you during the autumn hunt..." Li Yan's smile was a bit awkward, but he had to maintain his image.
Originally he was still 30% confident that he could settle the dispute with these two people, but now after hearing about Li Xiang's glorious deeds, his confidence dropped from 30% to zero.
This person is capable of subduing Hou Junji...
"If that is the case, then we would like to thank the king!" everyone said happily.
Children of this age are in their middle school years, and their minds are full of relying on the glory of Master Chang'an and thinking about getting along with him.
Since Li Xiang's reputation has grown, Li Jingren and others have also risen in the dandy circle of Chang'an, and they are beginning to look like the new generation of leaders.
Especially that Wei Daijia, who was originally just a snotty little crybaby who was looked down upon by everyone. But Li Xiang actually backed him up and asked him to slap the guard of King Qi... The market price suddenly went up. Who wouldn't look up to Wei Daijia now?
This also highlights Li Xiang's great sense of righteousness. For the sake of his brother, he was willing to offend his evil and ruthless uncle Wang and stand up for him.
Li Yan found the meal tasteless.
Even though the dish was delicious, he found it a little difficult to appreciate its flavor.
After all, he was still struggling with the idea of introducing these brothers to Li Xiang... What if his nephew didn't give him the face he deserved? What if his nephew lost face in public?
Li Yan was already going crazy in his heart, and even hoped that the autumn hunt would not come so early...
Of course, Li Xiang didn't know the dilemma in Li Yin's heart. He was still preparing for the autumn hunt.
He has a bit of a hamster temperament. Looking at the two or three hundred kilograms of sausages, he always feels that it is not enough.
The next day, he went to Cheng Yaojin's house again, and "happened" to see Cheng Yaojin's three cows fighting to death for the position of "king of cows".
Well...the ingredients for the braised beef are ready.
This made Fubao very busy. He had been busy making braised beef since two days before the autumn hunt, and he didn't even have time to follow Li Xiang.
Li Xiang was also idle and had nothing to do, so he originally planned to take the football to find his aunt, but he thought that his aunt was a quiet girl after all, so it would be better not to let her accompany him to play such a dirty game.
After all, Lao Li is not a workaholic, and with the upcoming autumn hunt, he is a little distracted.
Historically, Li Shimin became a workaholic in the late Zhenguan period because he wanted to pave the way for Li Zhi, so he overdrawn his body, causing his health to further deteriorate.
As for the matter of taking pills...actually, according to Li Xiang's observation, at least Old Li has no such idea at the moment.
As for the reason why I will take pills in the future...it's not for immortality, but I'm just too sick and there's really no other way, so I'll just give it a try.
Today's Li Shimin is different from the one in history. During this period in history, Li Shimin was still worried about the affairs of the Crown Prince and the King of Wei, as well as his daughter's health.
Now the prince has gotten better, and my daughter is also healthy again. Once my mood improves, my health will naturally improve as well.
With the help of the recipes given by Sun Simiao, Lao Li is becoming more and more energetic.
When Li Xiang trotted to the Lizheng Hall, Li Shimin was still strolling in the Liangyi Hall.
He was accompanied by a Turkic general and several close ministers.
"Qibi, how is your mother at home?" Li Shimin chatted casually with him.
Qibi Heli immediately said respectfully: "Thanks to the great grace of the Saint, my mother and younger brother are both living in Liangzhou. They wrote to me recently saying that everything is fine at home, which puts me at ease."
"Yes." Li Shimin nodded, and then said to him with a smile: "After the autumn hunt is over, you can go home to visit your parents."
"You have been in Chang'an for many years and have not seen your relatives for a long time. I will allow you to take a break and go to Liangzhou."
"Thank you for your grace, Saint!" Qibi Heli immediately bowed and said.
"Well, I will give you some wealth and goods to your family then. You can't go back empty-handed." Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Your Majesty's kindness is so great that even if I sacrifice my life, I cannot repay you even a little bit!" Qibi Heli was deeply moved and said sincerely.
Before Old Li could say anything, he saw Li Xiang running out from Xianchun Gate.
"Xiang'er!" Li Shimin smiled and waved at Li Xiang, "Come here!"
When Li Xiang came over, he rubbed Li Xiang's head affectionately and said to Qibi Heli: "Qibi, let me introduce you. This is my great grandson, Li Xiang."
(Third update sent, dizzy)
(Actually, it’s not water. Every character that sets the stage has its role, especially Li Yin…)
