There are countless nobles in the capital, and their families have such a high status that even the servants in the house feel superior to others.
The concierge was kicked and rolled around on the ground. His front teeth almost fell on the bluestone floor. He was furious and got up from the ground. He was about to curse, but when he turned his head, his angry expression immediately turned into flattery, "
Guard Lin, do you have any orders?"
Lin Huwei followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the capital from Qing'an Mansion. Apart from the Crown Prince and his concubine, he was the most powerful person in the mansion. Even with ten of his courage, he did not dare to be arrogant in front of Lin Huwei.
However, Lin Huwei ignored the concierge at all, walked to Li Yi, and said with a smile: "Young Master Li is here by chance. His Highness has just returned from the palace and has been waiting for you for a long time."
After hearing Lin Huwei's words, the concierge almost fell to his knees on the ground with his legs weak.
Who would make His Royal Highness wait for so long? More importantly, he actually blocked such a person from the door just now?
It wasn't until the young man and the two children entered the Prince's Mansion under the leadership of Guard Lin that the concierge finally couldn't help but sit down on the ground, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and the bitter smile on his face was uglier than crying.

"This way……"
The Prince's Mansion was very large, at least larger than the Li family. Li Xuan's head guard led the way, and Li Yi and his two children were still walking through the Prince's Mansion a quarter of an hour later.
I was secretly calculating in my mind how much it would cost to buy such a big mansion. According to the geographical location here, it is almost equivalent to the first ring of Beijing. What are the housing prices in the first ring of Beijing in the future? If it really is so big
With a piece of land, future generations may not have to worry about it.
The little fat man who had always been bold and bold stopped talking after entering the Prince's Mansion. After all, he grew up in an unusual environment and had more knowledge. He knew that people who could live in such a place were much better than the Li family.
As for the little girl on the Dragon Boat Festival, she held Li Yi's hand and looked at everything around her with curious eyes. She just felt that this place was really big and her feet were a little sore from walking. They hadn't walked out yet. They were going to move.
The place you go to should not be so big.
On the grassy slope behind the Prince's Mansion, a young guard carried a huge kite-shaped object on his back. After a run-up, he rushed down the sloping grassy slope.
Gradually, his toes began to lift off the ground, and his whole body slowly rose into the air, a full two feet away from the ground. As his arms swung, his body tilted, and the huge kite also tilted at an angle, like a big bird.
Likewise, it began to hover in the air, causing a burst of cheers from the guards on the grassy slope.
Bah!
The little fat man looked at this scene with dull eyes. The piece of cake he had just taken out fell to the ground. Then his eyes became frightened. He pointed at the guard in the sky and said loudly: "He...he, he is flying."
!”
The little girl also opened her eyes wide, opened her mouth slightly, and was speechless.
The two children seemed to have seen a whole new world, standing there blankly, unable to move forward any longer.
Li Yi had no choice but to walk over alone.
"How's it going?" Li Xuan had a proud look on his face. He discovered that this kind of thing not only allows people to jump from high places and avoid falling, but also allows people to complete turns in the air by changing a small angle.
In his opinion, the movement of turning around is no different from that of a bird.
Even the guards of the palace don't dare to jump off a cliff of tens of feet yet, and this kind of difficult operation cannot be replaced by a pig or a dog. After he develops something that can be carried on his back to jump off the cliff,
, these guards can launch an attack to the higher sky.
"It's pretty good to be able to achieve this level." Li Yi nodded and said.
It is Li Xuan's tragedy to be born in this era when science has not yet sprouted. If he had been born a few hundred years later, perhaps the people who invented the airplane would have been the "Li brothers".
"It turns out that people can really fly into the sky. If they can fly higher, wouldn't they really be no different from birds?" Li Xuan murmured.
"If they could fly higher, then there would be no need for mounted scouts on the battlefield, and there would be no more ambushes. The enemy's troop distribution, amount of food and grass, and combat terrain would all be clear from the sky...
"Li Yi patted Li Xuan on the shoulder and said, "How is it? Do you feel that the responsibility on your shoulders suddenly becomes heavier?"
Li Xuan curled his lips indifferently and said, "I just want to see them fly. As for how Uncle Huang wants to use them, that's his business..."
The guard in the sky was flying lower and lower, and there were guards on the ground who recorded the time and altitude of his flight. When Li Xuan walked over, he was suddenly startled, pointed at the little girl not far away, and turned to look at Li Yi
, asked: "Why is she here? You can't really...she is still a child!"
Li Yi resisted the urge to say the word "go", calmed down and said, "That's my sister. The lady who sold noodles yesterday is my aunt."
"------"
It took Li Xuan a while to figure out the ins and outs of the whole thing and asked: "You came to borrow people from me to protect their safety?"
Li Yi nodded.
"That's good. Chen Guogong's Mansion does have many ways to deal with ordinary people. You can use the guards of the Prince's Mansion as you like. They are all carefully selected by the father. With them here, there shouldn't be any problems."
Li Xuan added, "Also..., the man we met at the county government yesterday was the capital magistrate, named Chen Yue, and he was also from the Chen family. Presumably, the reason why he made things difficult for the mother and son was because of Chen Yue.
I mean family, but don’t worry about this. Uncle Huang doesn’t like officials who practice favoritism and bend the law, especially in a place like the capital. Chen Yue will be transferred to another state in two days. I don’t know who the new capital magistrate is yet, but he is sure
My surname is not Chen."
After Li Xuan finished speaking, he went over there to check his kite.
Since Li Yi didn't think about bringing his mother's family to the Li family, he naturally wouldn't use the Li family's guards.
In this huge capital, there were only two people he could trust absolutely.
Li Mingzhu was in the deep palace and could not be seen casually. Li Yi did not want to see her, so only Li Xuan was left.
Li Yi was quite touched by his straightforward attitude. Although sometimes he was a little stupid, he was also the kind of friend who could be relied on at critical moments. When he saw him walking over to check the big kite, Li Yi called out to a guard.
wave.
"Go get pen and paper."
Although the guard didn't know what Li Yi wanted the pen and paper for, he still followed his instructions and quickly brought the things over.
There was paper and pen here, and a table was placed on the grass, filled with simple drawings. Two guards directly took the table and carried it over.
Li Yi picked up the pen and quickly sketched on a blank piece of paper.
Soon, something similar to a bird but with long wings appeared on the paper.
"What is this?" Li Xuan walked over and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Glider."
"Glider..." Li Xuan was still a little confused.
"Something that can make your guards fly higher and farther." The simple shape was already there, and Li Yi began to mark the dimensions. There were several key parts that needed to be partially enlarged and drawn.
"Higher, farther..." Upon hearing these words, Li Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
On the top of the grassy slope not far away, the little fat man watched another person flying with a big kite on his back. His eyes were full of envy, but when he looked down at his body, the light in his eyes dimmed again.
Farther away, on an exquisite attic, a beautiful woman stood beside the bed, listening to the cheers coming from the grassy slope, lowering her head to add the final touch to the picture scroll on the table.
In the scroll, there are several strange kites flying in the blue sky.
