"The King of Shu invites you to a banquet?" Li Mingzhu heard this and hesitated for a moment before saying: "Growing up, I haven't had much contact with the King of Shu, but he always likes to make friends, and the King of Shu's Mansion will hold banquets every few days.
You are now considered one of the powerful people in the capital, and you are of the same age as him, so it is normal for you to receive invitations."
"No way, you don't know him very well either?" Li Yi was a little surprised.
Although the old emperor had countless concubines, and most of the princes and princesses had the same father and mother, after all, they were brothers and sisters with the same blood. Even if they were not siblings from the same mother, they would still have some feelings for each other.
Could it be that my thoughts were wrong all along?
After thinking about it again, it seemed more normal. The princess was okay, but any prince might inherit the supreme position after the old emperor passed away.
However, there is only one throne, and who will win it in the end depends on their own abilities.
A good prince who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good prince. For the sake of the throne battle between princes, it's fine if they don't fight each other, but it's not easy to see touching brotherhood.
With Li Mingzhu's character, it is unlikely that she would have a few close brothers and sisters. Her friendship with Li Xuan has been since childhood. Princes of the same age may have been beaten by her a lot when they were young, so it is normal for their relationship to be a little distant.
Li Mingzhu thought for a while and said: "Since he invited you, if there is nothing important, it doesn't hurt to go."
Even after she said this, Li Yi asked in surprise: "Is it really possible for the King of Shu to ascend to the position of crown prince?"
"No one knows what the father is thinking." Li Mingzhu shook his head and said: "But judging from the current situation, the King of Shu has the greatest hope. Putting aside these things, it is not easy for you to lose the face of a prince.
"
Li Mingzhu obviously has no prejudice against the King of Shu, which at least shows that he does not appear to be an evil person on the surface, but Li Yi already knows it in his heart.
When passing by the catering bureau, Li Yi habitually glanced at a certain corner. Li Yi was startled, then turned back and asked Li Mingzhu: "What is going on with Princess Yongning? Doesn't she usually have to go to school?"
"Yongning is different from other princesses. Her father has granted permission for her not to go to school." Li Mingzhu paused slightly and said.
"What happened to Princess Yongning? Why did she become like this?" Perhaps it was because of the familiar feeling that Li Yi couldn't help but feel pity for the little princess. Six
At the age of seven, she should be innocent and full of childishness. There is no reason for her and she definitely shouldn't be in that shadow forever.
His mother died early and suffered a serious illness... This was the news he heard from Princess Shouning. Li Mingzhu was more than ten years older than Yongning and had grown up in the palace. He should be more aware of her affairs.
"Why did you suddenly ask about Yongning?" Li Mingzhu turned her head and asked him.
"I want to see if I can help her." Li Yi told the truth.
"Do you have any idea?" Li Mingzhu looked at him, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Although she has never had any communication with Yongning, after all, she is still her sister. How could she not want her to become like a normal child?
"It's hard to say, I can only try it first." Li Yi shook his head and said.
All the imperial doctors in the palace, including those very famous doctors among the people, have tried to treat Yongning, but none of them have succeeded. If there is really someone in the world who can cure her, Li Mingzhu believes that this person must be Li Yi.
"Yongning is the daughter of Concubine Liang. Concubine Liang died of illness when Yongning was two years old. It may be because she lost her mother when she was a child. Yongning's temperament has always been relatively withdrawn, but it is not like this now. Occasionally, he will be with her.
Princesses and princes of the same age play together, and the reason she became what she is now is because of a serious illness a year ago."
"My father summoned all the imperial doctors in the palace, and famous doctors from Beijing were also summoned overnight. No one could do anything. I thought Yongning would die, but I didn't expect that after one night, she miraculously woke up.
When she came here, her illness was cured without treatment, which even the imperial doctor found incredible." Li Mingzhu sighed and said, "However, although she saved her life, she seemed to have lost all her memory, including her father.
, everyone around him no longer recognizes him, and the imperial doctor said that his head may have been burned out, and there is no hope of cure in this life."
"Since then, she has become more withdrawn and never talks to others, which is what she is now."
Li Yi frowned when he heard this.
He only knew a little bit of modern medical knowledge and was not a miracle doctor. He originally thought that Princess Yongning was just autistic, but he did not expect that this was actually the case.
If it really burned out the brain and caused amnesia, then things would be much more troublesome. In fact, whether it is amnesia or autism, there is no particularly effective treatment even in modern times. Things would be more troublesome than he imagined.
many.
"You go ahead, I'll go back by myself in a while." He said to Li Mingzhu and walked towards a palace next to the catering bureau.
On the stone steps in the corner of the palace, the little girl was sitting there, still holding the stuffed doll in her arms, looking down at the ground.
"Hello, little girl, we meet again." Li Yi knelt down, smiled and said hello to her.
Hearing the voice, the little girl raised her head. When she saw Li Yi, there seemed to be a hint of color in her eyes, but there seemed to be nothing at all.
Li Yi took out the bead from his arms, waved it in front of her eyes, stretched out his other hand, and said, "Thank you for the bead, I like it very much. To thank you, how about I treat you to dinner?"
Looking at the palm stretched out in front of her, the little girl was startled, with a trace of hesitation on her face. After a long time, she carefully reached out a hand and placed it in Li Yi's palm.
Li Yi sighed deeply and finally took the first step.
Seeing the figure of the senior and the young holding hands as they walked into the catering bureau, the boss of the catering bureau was going crazy.
"Cucumber, cucumber, those two cucumbers must be hidden and don't let him see them. Those are the ones ordered by Concubine Chen to be applied to her face!"
"Kunlun purple melon, Kunlun purple melon, Concubine Yan's favorite food. These were just delivered this morning. They are fresh, so don't waste them... What are you doing standing around, go quickly!"
"Also, there is that bowl of soup. Hide it. It's too late. It's too late!" Zhang Tan said anxiously and turned around quickly. In this short time, his face had already changed.
He put on a bright smile and said: "I have attended Princess Yongning and met the lordship!"
"No need." Li Yi waved his hand, pointed at the guy who was desperately hiding the cucumber behind his back, and said: "You, come here!"
"It's over!" Seeing this scene, Shang Shiju's heart was bleeding. These were the last two cucumbers...
Concubine Chen, I’m sorry for you!
Zhang Tan silently observed the two cucumbers for a moment in his heart. Concubine Chen's cucumbers were gone once they were gone. He couldn't afford to offend this lord. Among the people here, Concubine Chen was the only one who could steal the porridge from the eldest princess.
One, but not including Concubine Chen.
Li Yi didn't kill them all. He picked a fresh cucumber, washed it, broke it into two halves, and handed the front one to Yong Ning. While nibbling the rest, he pointed at the other person opposite and said, "You,
Where are you looking? Yes, what about you? Stop hiding it and bring me that eggplant, Kunlun purple melon."
Even Concubine Yan’s Kunlun purple melons were spoiled by poisonous hands, and the expression on the face of the director of the Food Bureau became even more miserable.
The Shangshi Bureau was responsible for the meals in the palace, and concubines with no status had no power to instruct them to do things, let alone foreign ministers.
Apart from the royal family, Li Yi is the only one who can use Shangshi Bureau as his own kitchen.
Because he is not only the arithmetic teacher of many little princes and princesses, but also the cooking teacher and nutritionist of Princess Shouning in name. This is something the old emperor has said eloquently. As long as he does not dismantle the Shangshi Bureau, Palm Tan will not be able to do it.
Say something about what he did here.
As for filing a complaint against His Majesty, saying that this lordship is arrogant and domineering, causing the Shangshi Bureau to be angry and using public property for personal use, not to mention Concubine Chen's cucumbers, and Concubine Yan's purple melons, etc., this is simply legal.
It’s unacceptable, both humans and gods are outraged!
I really don’t dare to do it.
I heard from the Minister of Wei that His Majesty personally invited the Lord to dinner a few days ago. He and Your Majesty are the only two people in the world. Who else in the world can have such an honor? Even the Prime Minister would not dare to give him ten more courages.
