At the same time, a banquet was being held at Li Min's house. Of course, those attending the banquet were Cheng Huailiang, Li Jingye, and Li Yong's gang of gangsters. However, there was one more person in the group today, and that was Li Jing's grandson.

Li Yexu.

Originally, Cheng Huailiang and the others said they were going to have a banquet for Li Min last time, firstly to express their gratitude for Li Min's help in the cement factory, and also to welcome Li Yexu, who had just been released. However, early this morning, they all went to Li Min.

When Min's family arrived, they first asked Li Min whether he was responsible for the fireworks last night? Because they had known about Li Min preparing gifts for Concubine Yang before, and yesterday happened to be Concubine Yang's birthday.

Those fireworks also exploded from the direction of the palace, so they thought of Li Min first, and the result was just as they expected.

It was rare that so many people came here today, so Li Min suggested that instead of inviting him and Li Yexu separately, they could just get drunk at his house today. During this time, he had come up with a lot of new dishes.

I plan to give everyone a feast.

Hearing Li Min's suggestion, Cheng Huailiang and the others also applauded loudly. Anyway, they would eat and drink everywhere, and it was better to be here with Li Min, because there was no better cook than his in the entire Chang'an city.

So Li Min gave the order, and the entire Prince Liang's Mansion became busy again. The preparations were quickly completed. Everyone had a few drinks at the banquet and immediately got into the mood. They were so noisy that the main hall of Prince Liang's Mansion was almost overturned.

"Liu Lang, brother, let me give you a toast. I didn't have the opportunity to attend the last Five Kings Banquet. This bowl of wine is my brother's apology to you!" After Li Yexu finished speaking, he picked up the big bowl and poured it into his mouth, drinking it in the blink of an eye.

Everything is clean. This is the real Five Kings Drunk, and Li Min has watched him drink three bowls in a row, but this Li Yexu, whom he met for the first time, didn't even change his expression, as if he was at least a pound and a half.

It was as if all the hard liquor he drank ended up in other people’s stomachs.

The grandson of Duke Wei came here with Li Jingye today. He is fair and clean-looking. He is about the same age as Li Ke, but a few years older than Li Min. His personality cannot be mentioned.

After all, it was also the first time they met Li Min, but Li Yexu was very enthusiastic, saying that he heard rumors about Li Min almost every day at home, and had long wanted to make friends with him. Today he finally found the opportunity, and then he and

Li Min drank heartily.

Li Min was also a natural, and he welcomed Li Yexu's enthusiasm. When he found that he couldn't drink the other person, he immediately diverted the other person's attention and said: "Brother Ye Xu, I have always had a question in my mind. I don't know whether I should ask it or not?

"

"Brother, is there anything you can't ask? Just say it!" Li Yexu said to Li Min while stuffing roast duck into his mouth. He has long been familiar with the delicious food in Li Min's house, and this is the first time he tasted it today.

, after one taste, it was indeed well-deserved. Now he is like a starving ghost, desperately stuffing things into his mouth. But what is strange is that with his mouth full of food, he can still speak very clearly. Sure enough,

He's a strange man.

"Brother Ye Xu, I have always wondered what mistake you made before, and why did you make Duke Wei so angry that he beat you until you couldn't get out of bed for more than half a month?" Li Min asked strangely,

Ordinarily, Li Jing is Li Yexu's biological grandfather, and he is so old. He should only love his direct grandson. How could he be so harsh?

Upon hearing Li Min's question, Li Yexu's face immediately became depressed. Li Jingye next to him obviously knew the inside story and showed a very rare melancholy expression. However, Qin Huaiyu next to Li Min seemed to understand something and asked with some anxiety.

Said: "Ye Xu, are you secretly practicing martial arts again?"

When Li Min heard Qin Huaiyu's words, his mind immediately became confused. From what he meant, could it be that practicing martial arts was a big mistake?

"No, my grandfather injured my leg bone last time I practiced martial arts. It's not completely healed yet, and I can't use my strength at all." Li Yexu said with a wry smile.

"If you don't practice martial arts, you must be secretly reading military books again!" At this time, Cheng Huailiang also came over and said sympathetically.

Hearing Cheng Huailiang's words, Li Yexu finally nodded aggrievedly and said with a frustrated look: "I just sneaked into my grandfather's study and wanted to copy his "The Art of War of the Duke of Wei", and I was busy for more than half a month.

, I finally copied the last volume and was almost done, but unexpectedly, my grandfather discovered it. You all know the consequences, so I don’t need to explain it anymore, right?"

After listening to Li Yexu's account, Cheng Huailiang and Qin Huaiyu both stepped forward and patted their shoulders with understanding. Although they sympathized with Li Yexu's experience, they were unable to help. However, Li Min was confused.

Shi couldn't help but ask: "Ye Xu, why can't I understand what you are saying? Is it wrong to practice martial arts and study?"

"Liu Lang, you don't know the secret behind this. If you know the family rules of Duke Wei, you should be able to understand what is going on." Qin Huaiyu said helplessly.

"Gong Wei's family rules?" Li Min had really never heard of it, but he immediately asked, "What's wrong with these family rules? Does it also stipulate that the descendants of Duke Wei's family are prohibited from practicing martial arts and studying?"

"It's not that it's forbidden to practice martial arts and study, it's that it's forbidden to practice martial arts and learn the art of war. And even if you become an official when you become an adult, you're not allowed to serve in the military." Li Yexu corrected with a wry smile.

"What? How can there be such family rules in this world?" Li yelled out in shock, with a look of disbelief on his face. You must know that no matter what you do nowadays, you must pay attention to the origin of family education. After all, in an era when education was not yet popularized, father and son passed down from generation to generation.

Passing down skills from generation to generation is the main form of inheritance of skills, and Li Jing is the military god of the Tang Dynasty. If his descendants can enter the army, relying on his prestige in the army and inherited military skills, the Li family will definitely become the best in the army.

Leader. But Li Jing did not take this Yangguan Avenue, but instead cut his own way and established such weird family rules. Isn't this something he can't live with?

"But, grandfather, he just set such a family rule!" Li Yexu complained full of his family's family rules, with undisguised hatred on his face when he spoke.

"But there should be an explanation for setting up such a weird family rule, right?" Li Min felt that this family rule was not made by Mr. Wei Guo because he was confused. There should be some hidden secret in it.

"Yes, there is. My grandfather said that he killed too many people in those days, so he felt quite uneasy in his later years, so he asked Yuan Tiangang to read his fortune. As a result, the old magician gave his grandfather a fortune telling, saying that he would be a very powerful person in his life.

Although, the killings and cruelty caused on the battlefield must be repaid on the descendants, the only way to solve the problem is to prohibit the descendants from serving in the army, so my grandfather set such a broken rule." Li Yexu said through gritted teeth, especially in

When Yuan Tiangang was mentioned, the look on his face looked like he wanted to eat him alive.

Is it Yuan Tiangang again? Li Min was shocked. He had heard about it from Hua'er last time, and he also knew some of his deeds in his previous life. In the past, Li Min would have regarded Yuan Tiangang as a high-level god at most.

Stick, but since traveling to the Tang Dynasty, he has become somewhat suspicious of ghosts and gods. Although he is not completely convinced, he has to admit that there are some mysterious things in this world that cannot be explained.

"Alas~, originally this family rule might not be of much importance to other people. For example, Ye Xu's father and several uncles are now serving as civil servants in the court, but they have caused Ye Xu a lot of suffering. He is naturally fond of practicing martial arts.

He is also very interested in the art of war. If he were placed in the home of other generals, he might make the elders happy. However, in the eyes of Duke Wei, he is seeking death. After all, he does not want retribution for the killings he has caused.

It's his grandson, so even though he often beats Ye Xu very badly, it's actually for Ye Xu's good." Qin Huaiyu was a few years older and had a calm temperament, so he analyzed the matter very thoroughly.

"I also know that my grandfather is doing it for my own good, but I was born with such a bad temper. If you don't let me ride a horse to fight, it would be better to kill me." Li Yexu also has a stubborn temper, although he can understand his grandfather's kindness.

, but he is unwilling to give up his ideals.

It was just that Li Min's shrewdness made him think of another deeper meaning of Li Jing's ban on his descendants from entering the army. It was probably because he had made too much contribution and was afraid of arousing Li Shimin's suspicion, so he banned his descendants from entering the army. In addition,

He himself does not actually control the military power. In this way, even if others make slanderous remarks and make Li Shimin suspicious, I am afraid that there will be no suspicion.

Regarding Li Yexu's matter, Li Min was really helpless. After all, Li Jing was the elder. The most he could do as a junior was to find an opportunity to explain to the old man, but it was hard to say whether people would listen. Not to mention Cheng Huailiang and the others.

, I have been familiar with Li Yexu since childhood. If there was a way, I would have used it long ago. Why would I wait until now?

In the end, everyone could only talk a few words together, and then accompany Li Yexu to drink to drown their sorrows. Unfortunately, in the end, they could only add more sorrow to their sorrows. In the end, Li Min saw that this was not the solution. If this continued, the banquet would be ruined.

They broke up happily, so he hurriedly carried up the things that had been prepared and called back Li Yong and others who were playing around. He had something important to announce to everyone.
