Chapter 28 Li Tai's Estrangement Plan
Wei Zheng was eager to respond positively to Li Xiang's suggestion.

Since today was the day to pay respect to his teacher, and Wei Zheng was eager to make a big news, he was not in a hurry to teach. Li Xiang was also studying printing, and he left in a hurry before lunch time.

Of course he was anxious, because printing technology required start-up capital!

Besides, isn't the purpose of doing this for my second uncle? Since it's for my second uncle, isn't it reasonable for my second uncle to pay for it?

Leaving from Yongxingfang where Wei Zheng's residence was located, Li Xiang did not take a car, but took Fubao and headed for Yankangfang.

The Prince of Wei's Palace is really big. Although it is not as big as the mansion in Luoyang that occupies the entire market town, it is still far beyond the reach of ordinary mansions.

The gatekeeper of the palace was not as arrogant as the stereotype suggests. Instead, he was extremely respectful. When he heard that it was the Prince of Tianshui who was visiting, he did not dare to be negligent and went in immediately to inform him.

After a while, Li Tai's son Li Xin came out with a very enthusiastic look on his face.

"Brother, brother! What brings you here?"

Li Xin walked forward, grabbed Li Xiang's hand, and acted very warmly.

Wow, you are such a good actor?

Of course Li Xiang was not willing to be left behind. He immediately held Li Xin's arm and smiled as if in spring breeze.

"It happened that I left the palace today to become a disciple at the residence of Duke Zheng. When I came back, I suddenly remembered that I had not yet paid my respects to my uncle, so I came here."

"I see. Please, brother."

"Xindi, please."

What Li Xiang didn't know was that Li Tai had just given Li Xin a death order.

Even if you are pretending, you have to pretend to be a friendly and respectful brother, otherwise you'd better go back to Luoyang as soon as possible.

After entering the mansion, Li Xin brought Li Xiang to the main hall.

"Aye, my elder brother is here."

"My nephew is here? Come in quickly." Li Tai's voice came from inside the house.

After Li Xiang walked into the main hall, he bowed without saying a word.

"Nephew Li Xiang, hello to uncle!"

"We are family, why need to be so polite? Xin'er, quickly help your elder brother up." Li Tai smiled as sweet as Maitreya Buddha.

After being helped up, Li Xiang walked to the side and sat down.

After hearing that Li Xiang had just come from Wei Zheng's house, Li Tai couldn't help but feel fascinated.

"It is a blessing for Xiang'er to be appreciated by Duke Zheng!"

As Li Tai spoke, he could not help but sigh: "I only regret that I cannot be like Xiang'er, serving Duke Zheng and listening to his teachings day and night!"

Hearing this, Li Xiang couldn't help himself.

Relying on his young age and "innocence", Li Xiang asked.

"Mr. Zheng has repeatedly reported Uncle Er to Grandfather, and his words have many speculations about Uncle Er. Doesn't Uncle Er hold a grudge against him?"

Who knew that after hearing this, Li Tai burst into laughter.

After laughing for a while, he explained to Li Xiang's puzzled look, "The reason why Duke Zheng impeached me was out of a public spirit. Besides, everyone in the government and the public knows that Duke Zheng is fair and just. How can I harm him for personal gain?"

"I admire your broad-mindedness, uncle!" Li Xiang looked at Li Tai with admiration.

Li Tai was very pleased to hear this.

After praising Li Tai for a few more times, Li Xiang took advantage of his happiness and said, "I came to visit my second uncle not only to pay my respects, but also to ask for a favor."

"Oh? What's the matter with Xiang'er?" Li Tai sat up straight immediately.

I knew you were not that simple! He thought to himself.

"Uh...it's just..." Li Xiang pretended to be shy and said, "My nephew is short of money..."

At the same time, he was a little uncertain. Although Li Tai had promised that he could ask him for money if he didn't have it, he couldn't guarantee that he would remember it. "I thought it was something else, but it turned out to be just this little thing!" Li Tai smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Is one thousand strings of cash enough?"

Li Xiang looked at Li Tai with joy. He originally thought that one hundred strings of cash would be enough, but he didn't expect that his second uncle would be so generous.

"Enough, enough, thank you, second uncle!" He said as he stood up and bowed to Li Taina.

"You are too polite, kid." Li Tai looked at Li Xiang with a big smile and said, "I will send someone to take him to the East Palace right now."

Li Xiang said politely: "I dare not trouble you, uncle..."

"Well, it's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

Li Tai waved his hand, signaling the eunuch beside him to do the work.

The goal had been achieved, so there was no need for Li Xiang to stay any longer.

It's so tiring to speak with a mask on, especially when facing a thousand-year-old vixen like Li Tai.

After praising Li Tai a few more times, Li Xiang declined the other party's invitation to stay for lunch and said goodbye.

"Xin'er, see your elder brother off for me." Li Tai instructed his son Li Xin with a smile.

Standing in front of the door, he watched Li Xiang go away enthusiastically. Only when Li Xiang's back disappeared did Li Xin put away his smile and return home.

"Aye, why did you lend him money?"

In the main hall, Li Xin looked at Li Tai with confusion.

"The prince relies on Duke Zheng and you, his elder brother." Li Tai picked up the tea bowl and sipped it leisurely. "But the prince is irritable and sees me as a thorn in his side. If I can cut off one of his arms and alienate him from his father with just a thousand strings of cash, why wouldn't I do it?"

"I see. Aye has foresight and foresight. I admire you very much!"

Li Xin suddenly realized and looked at Li Tai with admiration.

In the Mingde Hall of the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian, who was sitting and playing with Ruyi, suddenly heard a noisy sound at the door.

"Who is making the noise?" Li Chengqian frowned and asked loudly.

"Reporting to the Crown Prince, these are the properties sent by the King of Wei to the Prince of the County." After a eunuch went to inquire, he came back and reported.

He was already sensitive to the words "King of Wei", and the fact that it was the King of Wei who gave money and property to his eldest son, whom he relied on, made him think more.

"Asshole!" Li Chengqian cursed, "Why did the King of Wei give money to my son? Is he taking advantage of the fact that the Eastern Palace has nothing to spend?"

He thought that the King of Wei was mocking him for not daring to spend money in the Eastern Palace and having no money to spend, so he gave money to Li Xiang.

The eunuch glanced at the furious Li Chengqian, and replied cautiously, "Your Highness, according to the eunuchs in the Prince of Wei's Palace, the Prince of the County borrowed it from the Prince's Palace..."

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian's anger seemed to be ignited by a bucket of gasoline.

He thought a lot, but he never expected that it was Li Xiang who took the initiative to go to the Prince of Wei's palace to borrow money.

What the hell... what do you think of me, your father? You need money, but you don't ask your father first, but ask your father's mortal enemy!

"What?! This rebellious son!"

"I'm fucking him!"

At this moment, Li Chengqian turned into a desk cleaning master and overturned the table in front of him to the ground.

"Prince, please calm down. There may be some hidden story behind this matter..."

Ruyi, who was standing by, saw the prince getting furious and immediately stepped forward to try to persuade him.

"Is there something else going on?!"

Li Chengqian just felt his head buzzing.

"He has gone to the King of Wei to borrow money! Does he still have me as his father? Don't I have any money to give him?!"
