It was obvious from his expression, tone and demeanor that Li Xuan was very troubled.
In order to fight for the emperor, the other princes disregarded the love of brothers, openly and secretly, and yang and yin. They fought hard and bloody, and carried out all kinds of deadly tricks...
In order to not be the emperor, he had trouble eating and sleeping, and he was so haggard that he thought about giving up the throne all the time...
If King Xin of Shu, King Qi or any other king knew what he was thinking, they might not be able to help but strangle him to death.
Li Xuan, who was in a decadent state, suddenly raised his head and asked: "Do you have any wine?"
Li Yi has stopped drinking since the last incident, but the person in front of him is his best friend. He would sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman, so it doesn't matter if he makes an exception.
As a prince and future emperor, of course he must use the biggest bowl and drink the strongest wine.
Li Yi stood up, waved his hand to the back, and said to a servant: "Bring out the best wine in the house!"
Soon, a servant brought the wine jar. Li Yi opened the lid, poured a bowl for Li Xuan and Mingzhu each, picked up his own teacup, and said: "I have wine today and I am drunk today. I will be worried tomorrow..."
, Let’s talk about tomorrow’s things tomorrow, let’s do it!”
Li Xuan's drinking capacity was not much better than his own, but after drinking a large bowl of wine, his face turned red and his eyes became blurry.
This amount of wine is nothing to Mingzhu. She drinks wine more easily than drinking tea by herself.
Miss Liu Er walked out of the room, followed by Ruyi Zui Mo Ruoqing. Li Xuan looked up, saw Zui Mo and Ruo Qing, and said in surprise: "What..., when did you come in?"
"Just yesterday." Li Yi looked at him and said, "The wedding is at the end of next month. You won't be able to come then, and the congratulatory gifts will be necessary."
At that time, Li Xuan was already the crown prince of the East Palace. As his net worth had increased, the gift would naturally increase as well.
"Why don't I come to your big day?" Li Xuan glared at him, then turned around and asked, "How many will you marry?"
The expression on Li Yi's face froze, and he suddenly regretted that he should have made do with grape wine just now.
I poured him another bowl of wine and said through gritted teeth, "One..."
"Tell me, do you want to go to such trouble..." Li Xuan stood up with a red face, eyes blurred by drunkenness, shook his head and said: "It would be great to finish everything at once..."
He pointed in the yard and said, "Miss Zui Mo, Miss Ruoqing..."
Then he turned around and pointed, "Your second young lady..."
Looking back again, "There is also the Pearl..."
"You said, you can't be more cheerful and act like a man!"
Li Yi grabbed the bowl, pinched his mouth, poured all the wine in the bowl, then put him on his shoulders and said: "He is drunk, I will take him to rest..."
…
"You tell me, in terms of qualifications and status, how am I inferior to Li Chuang? Why should I give this throne to him?"
In King Xin's palace, King Xin picked up a wine jar, shook it, threw it aside, and said loudly: "Go get more wine!"
In the hall, all the dancers knelt on the ground fearfully, lowering their heads and not daring to express their anger.
His Royal Highness King Xin is obviously drunk. If he is angered at this time, his life may even be in danger.
Immediately, a servant hurried out and ran into the wine cellar, picked up a wine jar and ran outside.
When he ran to the door, he was stopped by someone.
He hurriedly said: "Quickly get out of the way, this is what His Highness wants, no delay!"
The servant of the palace said in a deep voice: "These are all top-quality spirits. His Highness has already drunk so much. If he drinks any more, something will happen. If something goes wrong with His Highness's drinking, none of us can escape!"
The man turned pale and asked in a trembling voice: "Then, what should we do?"
The servant took the wine jar from his hand and pointed to another corner, "Take the wine there. The wine there is not very strong and it is less likely to cause trouble."
"Thank you!"
The man responded, immediately picked up a jar and ran out.
The servant of the palace in green clothes put the wine jar back to its original place, looked outside, and murmured: "It's getting dark..."
…
Li Yi originally thought that Zui Mo and Ruo Qing moving into their home was a 100% happy event, but now it seems that it is not entirely true.
Ruyi and Zuimo talked about something all day long, and even slept together at night. It seemed that they still had a lot to say...
Zui Mo and Ruo Qing moved here, and naturally Xiao Zhu and Xiao Cui also moved here. They were different from ordinary maids. Like Xiao Huan, they lived in the inner courtyard with Ruyi Ruyi. In this way, the people in the inner courtyard
The room was not enough. Li Yi lay on the uncomfortable bed in the study, thinking about whether Ruyi and Zuimo slept together. Should he go and deal with Ruoqing? The time was almost up anyway...
After careful consideration, I still feel that you should not be too complacent as a person. It is not easy to make such great progress, and you may not be able to meet a good person like King Xin next time.
Although I am no longer proud, the joy and excitement in my heart are naturally inevitable.
I was lying on the bed tossing and turning, I don’t know what time it was, and I still didn’t feel sleepy at all.
Li Yi stood up and was going to sit in the yard, blow in the wind and look at the moon. It was better than lying here.
It was very quiet in the yard. He walked to the rocking chair, lay down on it comfortably, and put his hands behind his head.
Li Xuan, a guy who doesn't have any liquor, dares to say anything when he is drunk, and it never counts. Last time when he was drunk, he said that he would give the Crown Princess to him, but he has not yet fulfilled his promise.
It was the same situation again today. If he hadn't moved quickly enough, did he think he could withstand Ruyi and Mingzhu's swords?
However, although the occasion when he spoke was wrong, the truth was the same.
But there is nothing he can do about it. This kind of thing is not about him choosing a concubine in the future. If he takes a fancy to the palace together, it will happen naturally as the relationship grows.
Li Yi thought for a while and murmured: "Zui Mo, early next year, Ruo Qing, Ruo Qing will have to wait a little longer..."
"What about the pearl?"
Li Yi frowned and said: "Mingzhu, Mingzhu is not good yet..."
"Where's Ruyi?"
"Ruyi..." Li Yi suddenly raised his head and saw Miss Liu Er lying on a thick branch of the tree behind him, with her hands behind her head like his, and her two long legs folded together.
, the bright moonlight shines down, and looking up from below, it seems that her whole body is exuding a faint brilliance, full of holy aura...
"Ruyi—what are you doing up there?"
"Can't sleep, come out and look at the moon." Miss Liu Er came down from the tree lightly and asked curiously: "What did you say about Li Mingzhu just now?"
"She..." Li Yi waved his hand and said, "She handles political affairs well, but her cooking skills are far behind. She can't even make fried rice with eggs. She is far inferior to Ruo Qing, and she is even inferior to Zui Mo.
You are not much better than Yiyi..."
I don't know how many bright lights flashed through my mind. In an instant, I connected the four names together, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
Miss Liu Er looked at him and said nothing.
Li Yi raised his head and found that her face was a little red, looking a little charming in the night.
It's not a blush, it's a redness reflected by the light.
She looked behind him.
Li Yi turned around and saw a red light on the horizon in the distance.
No, it's a red light.
…
Xinwangfu was in a state of panic.
"It's gone, it's gone!"
"Quick, put out the fire!"
"His Royal Highness King Xin is still in the room, please come quickly!"
"This, this fire cannot be extinguished with water!"
"This, this is kerosene!"
…
The servants of the palace who had already fallen asleep were awakened by the noisy sounds. When they hurriedly put on their clothes and walked out of the door, they saw a blaze of fire and a crowd of people scattered in all directions...
Where no one noticed, several figures crossed their hands on their chests.
"For the sake of the queen!"
"For the sake of the queen!"
"For the sake of the queen!"
…
After whispering a few words, they turned around, walked through the panicked crowd, walked against the current, and quickly disappeared.
