"I think so too." Li Shimin took a deep look at Cheng Chubi, who was sipping tea to soothe his throat.
"Cheng Sanlang, did you really realize this on your own?"
Cheng Chubi chuckled, why did I spend so much time spitting? I just want to prevent you from causing trouble.
"Of course not." Cheng Chubi shook his head seriously. "Actually, what Caichen wanted to say just now is just that you don't want to hear it, uncle."
"..." Li Ji looked at the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty with some curiosity, wondering why His Majesty would do this.
Li Shimin suddenly became unhappy. "Who told you, kid, to talk so much nonsense? You can chatter for a long time without getting to the point."
"Okay, okay, now I have permission to tell you, hurry up."
Only then did Cheng Chubi take a satisfied sip of the tea soup, smacking his mouth and cheeks, and raised his neck. "As the saying goes, a child has no mother. It's a long story..."
Li Ji's face immediately darkened, and he couldn't help but whisper into Li Shimin's ear.
"...Your Majesty, why do you think this kid wants to be beaten?"
"Wait a minute, I'll beat him after he finishes his words." Li Shimin's expression was not much better, but he was too embarrassed to break his promise.
Perhaps because it was dusk and the Manna Hall was dim, Cheng Laosan didn't even notice that the two middle-aged men surnamed Li had turned as dark as a pot.
He said very emotionally. "...His Royal Highness is very worried. As an official of the East Palace, my nephew is also very worried, but there is no good solution."
"So I invited His Highness the Crown Prince to go to Yichun Palace to relax. As a result, when I got there, I actually saw a nest of ants..."
The grumpy Emperor of the Tang Dynasty finally couldn't hold it any longer and slapped the table with his hand, almost poking the tip of Cheng Chubi's nose three feet away with his finger.
"Cheng Laosan, if that nest of ants has nothing to do with war games, believe it or not, I will whip you right now!"
Look, look, what if this grumpy elder becomes the emperor? He has no patience at all.
I’ve never heard of the saying that relocating to nourish your Qi, but you should have heard that you must have calm Qi when facing big events, right?
Why, didn’t you say that you read a lot of books all day long, and the books went into the dog’s belly?
Cheng Chubi, who was complaining crazily in his heart, could only smile to please and quickly speed up the pace of his speech.
"I saw ants biting a hornet with a broken wing. At that time, the prince said that it would be great if we could watch military affairs like watching ants and insects fighting."
"In this way, it is simple and intuitive. It is these words of His Highness the Crown Prince that gave me a huge inspiration."
"Of course at first, I only had an idea vaguely, but it was not clear yet, but I was afraid to move again and let the inspiration disappear..."
Li Ji immediately became happy. He glanced at the angry and funny Emperor next to him and couldn't help but say something.
"Oh...so you and His Royal Highness squatted there all afternoon watching the fight between insects and ants yesterday, right?"
Cheng Chubi immediately became anxious, raised his neck and said.
"General, what are you talking about? The point is, the point is war games and sandboxes. Who wants to watch ants all afternoon? Isn't it boring?"
I'm really not bored, but the question is, can I say that? Doesn't it prove that I and His Highness the Crown Prince are so idle that it hurts?
Li Shimin, who wanted nothing but three heads and six arms for the Tang Dynasty's national affairs, was right. Who could watch ants all afternoon?
"That's right. In my spare time, I like to read a lot of books. I mean I can read a book that suits my appetite all afternoon."
He couldn't help but shook his head in amusement. "Okay, Li Qing is joking with you, but you are more serious. This kid...
He really has some skills, he can tell the difference between a war game and a sandbox even if he looks at an ant, his brain is really not like that of ordinary people."
Li Ji, an old bastard, looked at Cheng Chubi happily, stroking his long beard and winking at His Majesty meaningfully.
"Your Majesty is wise. The children of the old Cheng family are beyond the reach of ordinary people."
Li Shimin almost couldn't hold on to the image of the wise and powerful emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so he quickly tried to cover it up by drinking tea.
Cheng Chubi looked at these two old men from the corner of his eyes. One was cunning and cunning, and the other was harmful to others. Well, he couldn't afford to offend either of them.
This made Cheng Chubi feel sad and think of his biological father. Unfortunately, the biggest supporter of the old Cheng family had left his hometown.
The old Cheng family was left alone, with six children waiting for food. Alas... even if I wanted to fight against these old people, I felt that I had no confidence in my father's absence.
Well, if you want to grow, you must survive. If your father is not here, don't let yourself wander.
Cheng Chubi, as a young man who devoted himself to the success of the Tang Dynasty, made suggestions and suggestions for the continuation of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
He was actually kicked out by those two old men when he was hungry. They said that there were important military and national affairs that needed to be secretly discussed. The little kid couldn't listen. Day!
Well, the sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it’s almost dusk... At dusk, if you chant this term, you might be able to appreciate the spring sunset a few more times.

Fortunately, Cheng Chubi didn't have much time to watch the sun at dusk when he was called into the Manna Hall again by Zhao Kun.
I saw two old men named Li who were not good people, and they were looking at me with great joy. I was so happy that Cheng Chubi almost became a comrade.
"Nephew Chu Bi, please sit down. You are hungry. I have sent someone to arrange meals. I will accompany us for some food later."
Cheng Chubi quickly nodded in agreement. It seemed that Li Shimin was not a stingy person. In this regard, he was really similar to Li Ke, who was also a member of the Yingguo family.
The nectar and jade liquid is a good thing, but in Cheng Chubi's opinion, the home-cooked dishes prepared by the imperial chefs in the palace are a little better than those cooked by the chefs in the East Palace, but not much better.
But fortunately, in addition to stewing and stewing, there were also roasted lamb and seared lamb chops. Both of these finally made Cheng Chubi feel like he had something to fill his belly.
After just a few bites, Li Ji spoke. "Cheng Sanlang, you will go to Yanjia Hall with me to help in the next few days."
Cheng Chubi, who was gnawing on the bones, couldn't help but be startled and looked at Li Ji.
"His Majesty will assign some craftsmen to come over. When the time comes, you can give them some guidance and make the war games and sand tables you mentioned. Is that okay?"
Cheng Chubi nodded matter-of-factly. "Of course there is no problem. My nephew will provide the necessary materials and information later.
I hope that my uncle can let the craftsmen prepare it in advance."
Seeing that Cheng Chubi did not shirk at all and looked very courageous in taking on the task, Li Ji nodded with satisfaction.
"That's right, that's right. You kid is brave enough to do your job. I heard that you are currently on duty in the East Palace.
But once I have free time, I will go to the Imperial Medical Office to fulfill my duties as ordered by the Imperial Medical Officer. I am indeed a rare role model among the younger generation..."
There was a puff, and Cheng Chubi, who was pleased to hear it, saw His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty choke out a mouthful of wine from his nostrils.
He quickly turned away and picked up a towel to wipe himself while coughing, which confused Cheng Chubi and Li Ji, both old and young.
Li Shimin straightened up his appearance and turned his head. Seeing the confused expressions of the old man and the young man, he really couldn't hold himself tight.
