In a feudal society where imperial power was supreme, the throne was the most majestic and supreme thing.
Li Xuan's thinking of using the throne as a ball is far different from that of the ancients. Li Yi felt deeply guilty.
Then thinking about Li Han's obsession with mental arithmetic, which was exactly the same as him, as his husband, Li Yi realized that his sin was even deeper.
Li Xuan is still young now, and his ideas are too idealistic and unrealistic. After two years, he will understand that the throne cannot be given up to whomever he wants, but can be given to whomever he wants.
Li Han can be a good dean of a calculation school and a cook, but it is unlikely that he will be a good emperor.
At least that's what Li Yi thought while eating his grilled fish.
Passing the fish meat with the fish bones removed to Yongning and Shouning, Li Han came over, looked at Li Xuan in the distance, and asked hesitantly: "Sir, what were you and the emperor talking about just now?"
Li Yi picked up a piece of fish and asked, "What's wrong?"
Li Han shook his head and said: "It's nothing..., I just have a bad feeling."
Children's desire to survive today is really too strong. Li Yi looked at him, shook his head, and said: "We didn't talk about anything, don't think too much, let's go grill a fish..."
…
Furong Garden has a quiet environment and pleasant scenery. Apart from Qujiang Garden, it is the two most beautiful royal gardens in Kyoto. The Li family is not far from these two places. When he and Ruyi went home, they didn't even need to take a carriage.
Li Yi hugged Li Duan who had fallen asleep. Ruyi turned her head, looked at him and asked, "Do you think Duan'er likes Xiaorui very much?"
Such a young child actually doesn't know what he likes or dislikes at all. It's just that the two children have been playing together for a long time and are used to it.
If it were a kitten or a puppy, he would still like it.
Li Yi looked at her and asked, "Did the Queen and the Madam say something?"
Ruyi smiled, nodded and said: "She said that Duan'er and Xiaorui were born on the same day. It was a fate cultivated in the previous life. If they can grow up together like this, they can be considered childhood sweethearts. Why don't we get married now..."
Because of his own experience, Li Yi deeply abhorred things like finger-tip marriage or baby kissing. He shook his head and said: "It will be up to them in the future. We'd better not interfere too much."
Ruyi obviously likes Xiaorui very much. She thought about it and said, "But Xiaorui is a princess. Many people will definitely want to marry the royal family. If Duan'er falls in love with her, she will be married to someone else..."
"Then rob!" Li Yi said without hesitation: "My wife is the best at robbing people..."
Ruyi took Li Duan from his arms and said calmly: "I have something to discuss with sister Zui Mo. My husband will sleep in the study tonight..."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "No, if there is anything we need to discuss, let's go together..."
Ruyi looked at him and asked: "Sister Zui Mo and I are going to discuss it all night long, do you want my husband to come too?"
"If you don't mind..." Li Yi looked at the smile on Ruyi's face, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, that bed is too small to sleep three people..."
I originally planned to marry Zui Mo back at the beginning of the year, but because of the death of the late emperor, I could only postpone the time. As of now, although the January period has passed, there will be no auspicious days in a short period of time. Of course, the more important reason is
, because he thought the two events were too short apart and felt uneasy.
Fortunately, Zui Mo could understand this and comforted him in turn, telling him how lucky he was to meet these women in this life...
Thinking about it, this might be God's compensation for him in his previous life. After all, he went to the library with the intention of studying. Not only did he meet a psycho who repaid kindness with revenge, but he also encountered an incredible fire - God owed him so much.
At the door of Li Mansion, Li Yi unexpectedly saw someone.
The Li family concierge said politely to a young man: "Sir, my Marquis and his wife have gone out. I don't know when they will come back. How about you come back tomorrow, or go to the mansion first?"
The young man cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I'll come back another day."
"There's no need to change the date." Li Yi walked over, patted Jiang Zian's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, if you need something, go in and talk..."
The expression on Jiang Zian's face immediately turned respectful: "Master Li..."
…
In the mansion, the maid served good tea. Li Yi looked at Jiang Zian and asked with a smile: "Brother Zian is leaving soon, right?"
"Yes, the appointment of the official department has been made, and I will leave tomorrow." Jiang Zian nodded, suddenly stood up, bowed deeply to Li Yi, and said, "Jiang Zian thanks Mr. Li for the rescue!"
His former friends almost pushed him into the abyss. His former enemies not only rescued him from prison, but also gave him a bright career. At this moment, standing in front of Li Yi, his heart was churning and he couldn't help but
self made.
Li Yi stood up and helped him up, saying: "I'm going to Qing'an Mansion. Brother Jiang, be careful. Anxi County is also your hometown. You must manage it well in the future and don't let your fellow villagers down."
Jiang Zian looked solemn, bowed and said, "Zian will live up to Master Li's trust."
Li Yi smiled and said: "Don't be so polite, just sit down..."
After Jiang Zian sat down, he raised his hands again and said, "I have offended many people in the past, Mr. Li, regardless of past grudges, Jiang, Jiang..."
"Don't mention the past anymore..." Li Yi waved his hand and said: "How can old friends get together without wine? Come, bring wine!"
The Li family's cook worked very quickly. Within a quarter of an hour, a jar of fine wine and several dishes of appetizers were put on the table.
Li Yi once made up his mind not to drink anymore, but he didn't stick to it for long. During this period, his drinking competitions with Miss Liu Er and Mingzhu all ended in failure, but his drinking capacity has greatly improved.
Jiang Zian was very reserved at first, but after a few glasses of wine, he gradually became confused.
"Master Li, Brother Li, do you really think that I, Jiang Zian, am a friend..."
"That's natural. I, Li Yi, don't have many friends, but you, Jiang Zian, are one of them. Don't forget, we have a life-long friendship..."
"Since we are friends, there are some things I have to say..." Jiang Zian looked at him with dissatisfaction and said, "Miss Ruoqing is such a good woman, even if she is some kind of queen, why don't you go find her?"
Is she, you, where has your courage gone when you scolded those Jinshi scholars in Prince Ning's Mansion..."
Li Yi slapped him on the head and cursed: "At this time, do you still dare to miss my Ruo Qing?"
"I didn't care!" Jiang Zian blushed, stared at him, and said, "I just feel that what you did in this matter is not like a man..."
"I don't look like a man..." Li Yi glanced at Jiang Zian, took the woman who was pouring wine for him into his arms, and said, "Ruo Qing, tell him, do I look like a man..."
Jiang Zian was shocked: "Ah, you, you are Miss Ruoqing..."
…
At the door, he heard a man's hearty laughter coming from inside the room. Zui Mo lowered his head, with a trace of sadness in his eyes.
Although he is smiling, it does not mean that he is really that happy. If he is really happy, there is no need to drink.
If he is not happy, it is difficult for her to smile.
Ruyi walked to her side, glanced into the room, and whispered: "After the late emperor left, my husband doesn't have many enemies, nor many friends..."
"He once said that after the late emperor left, no one would be able to protect them from the wind and rain..." Zui Mo looked at the figures in the room, shook his head and said: "In Kyoto now, who can stir up wind and rain? They
Respect him, fear him, be afraid of him, he actually doesn't like this..."
Ruyi held her hand, shook her head and said, "My husband has a side that we don't understand."
Jiang Zian soon became drunk and was helped to the guest room to rest by the servants of the Li family. Li Yi leaned on the chair and took a nap. When he opened his eyes, he saw an old face with wrinkles.
He had not seen this old face for a long time since His Majesty's death.
