People seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When you put down your face, you can easily do many things that you never dared to think about before.

Just like Cheng Ruoshui at this moment, "Brother Li Shi, grandpa asked me not only to apologize to you, but also to learn more like Brother Li Shi and soak up Brother Li's aura, so... Brother Fool... I don't plan to leave."

Li Beidou was surprised, and Xue Na was even more surprised.

Before Li Beidou could speak, Xue Na was unhappy, "What? Do you still want to stay here?"

Cheng Ruoshui looked down upon the county man's son. He glanced at him and said lightly: "What does it have to do with you?"

Xue Ne was confused by what he said. He was choked and speechless. After thinking for a long time, he forced himself to calm down and said: "He," pointed at Li Beidou with his finger, then pointed at himself and continued: "He is my brother-in-law. What do you think it has to do with me?"

Li Beidou went up and kicked him, "Get out of here, you are taking advantage of me."

Xue Ne staggered after being kicked, dusted himself off, and continued with a smile and said nonchalantly: "Hey, it'll be a matter of time."

Li Beidou ignored Xue Na, "Brother Ruoshui, what do you mean?"

Cheng Ruoshui, who was not afraid of the boiling water, fell down on Xue Ne's recliner and said, "Foolish brother, I won't leave. Brother Li Shi will take care of it."

Xue Na immediately became unhappy, feeling as if his beloved toy had been taken away, and pulled Cheng Ruoshui's arm.

Seeing the two people tugging at each other, Li Beidou had a headache and kicked Xue Ne again, "Get out of here too."

Xue Ne looked like he was being toyed with by a scumbag, and said aggrievedly, "If he doesn't leave, I won't leave either."

After saying that, he lay down on Li Beidou's recliner as if he was angry.

Li Beidou's head hurt, so he ignored these two treasures and fetched another recliner to lie down on.

Not long after, the very discerning butler Laifu placed a low table next to the three of them, and placed a few snacks on the table, such as fruits and so on.

Cheng Ruoshui looked at the two people in confusion as they walked around in the cricket. The cricket used the rocking of the recliner to reach for a snack and threw it into his mouth.

I couldn't help but asked out of curiosity: "Is this how you usually do?"

Xue Ne's mouth was filled with snacks and he said in a unclear voice: "Who asked you to stay? If you don't want to be with you, you can leave."

Cheng Ruoshui rolled his eyes at Xue Ne and tried to behave like the two of them.

Not long after, I saw three bastards cocooning there.

The butler Lai Fu took a look, shook his head and sighed before going to prepare lunch.

This time he had to go and keep an eye on it in person. He didn't know whether the cook, Lao Li, had learned the side dishes taught by Fifth Young Master.

After an unknown period of time, Li Beidou was exposed to the sun.

He opened his eyes reluctantly, and when he saw that he was no longer in the shade of the tree, he trembled like a chrysalis inside.

Xue Ne was dissatisfied with being hit. He glanced at Cheng Ruoshui, who was still closing his eyes and concentrating with an intoxicated look on his face. He also imitated Li Beidou and acted like a chrysalis inside.

Cheng Ruoshui was angry at being hit and glared at Xue Ne angrily.

Xue Nali ignored it and continued to crawl inside.

Just when the two of them were staring at each other and were about to take action, the butler Laifu said: "Young masters, it's time to eat."

Li Beidou then stood up, stretched out, and kicked Xue Ne next to him.

Xue Ne didn't even make a move to dust himself off this time. He stood up and stretched.

For some reason, Cheng Ruoshui suddenly envied the friendship between the two of them, and even kicking them showed their intimacy.

Cheng Ruoshui stood up and saw that there was a large table placed in the open space not far away, and there were two women and one man standing next to it. They were obviously servants from their clothes, and they didn't know why.

Li Beidou and Xue Ne walked to the table and sat directly on the benches. Cheng Ruoshui trotted over and sat down in a dignified manner.

Seeing the three people sitting down, two men and one woman also sat down.

Cheng Ruoshui suddenly felt insulted, "This... how unbecoming is this? How can a servant sit at the same table as the master?"

Ah Si, Ah Zi, and Ah Zhu suddenly felt uncomfortable, but Fifth Young Master didn't say anything, and they didn't dare to stand up. They could only blush with shame and be at a loss.

Li Beidou really didn't expect that this kid would be so feudal. He sneered, "This is Li Beidou's rule. All friends can sit at the same table." He looked at Cheng Ruoshui and continued: "It makes people noble. It’s not just about birth.”

Cheng Ruoshui was thoughtful, while the others looked at Li Beidou gratefully.

Li Beidou ignored Cheng Ruoshui and started eating with chopsticks.

Cheng Ruoshui could only put down his attitude and start using chopsticks.

As soon as I took a bite, my eyes immediately lit up. This...isn't this so delicious?

Xue Ne looked like I knew it, "This is stir-fried in the iron pot made by my eldest brother. Is it delicious? If it tastes good, eat more. You won't have the chance to eat it in the future."

Cheng Ruoshui ignored Xue Na's words and started eating.

The lunch ended in this disharmonious atmosphere.

Li Beidou stood up and clasped his fists. "It's easy to go, I won't send you off." After saying that, he stood up and left.

Seeing that Cheng Ruoshui was confused, Xue Ne said with a proud look on his face: "My eldest brother is going to take a lunch break. It is best not to disturb him during his lunch break."

When Cheng Ruoshui saw Xue Na leaving, he also got up and left to go back home. He couldn't understand why Xue Na was so interested.

Along the way, Cheng Ruoshui was thinking about what Li Beidou had done, and the words that make people noble, not just their birth background.



Li Beidou felt that he had just closed his eyes when he was woken up by the butler Laifu, "Fifth Young Master, the prince invites you to the palace."

Ten thousand grass and mud horses ran through Li Beidou's heart. He didn't know what this kid was recruiting him for, so he could only get up and change clothes reluctantly.

After cleaning up, I suddenly thought that I can't be in the limelight anymore. I'd better talk about alcohol disinfection and suturing later.

He quickly asked A'Zhu to help get some blood on the cloth to disguise it.

After tinkering for a long time, and seeing that it was somewhat interesting, Li Beidou leisurely set off for the East Palace.



Before arriving at the East Palace, Li Beidou noticed from a distance that today was different from the past.

I saw the Crane Control Guards training neatly, with a small group of earth-gray armors standing out next to the uniform black armors.

Li Zhi, wearing bright yellow armor, stood in front of everyone and watched with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Li Beidou coming over, he waved in a friendly manner and said with a smile: "Is Nephew Beidou's injury healed?"

"I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince, I... am still not well yet."

Li Zhi was stunned, this kid doesn't play according to the routine, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I'm recruiting you today mainly to let you see how the training of our Datang Crane Guard is going? In a few days, the Sixteenth Guards Competition will be held Compare."

Big money? Dabi? Compared to what? What does it have to do with me?

Li Beidou looked confused.

Seeing Li Beidou's confusion, a young officer next to him quickly explained: "Every year in the competition, the captain is required to draw lots. The prince wants you to familiarize yourself with the process first."

Li Beidou felt convinced that he could still be a vase.

After chatting for a while, Li Zhi introduced several officers to Li Beidou, and then reluctantly left.

Suddenly, someone in a small group of earth-gray armors coughed uncontrollably. Although the sound was not loud, it was still heard by Li Beidou.

Li Beidou asked curiously: "General Huang, why are they dressed like this?"

General Huang said with disdain: "Japanese people come to us for training."

During the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese state regarded the Tang Dynasty as its suzerainty and tried its best to kneel and lick the emperor, bent on learning the civilization of the Tang Dynasty.

The emperor was so licked that it was hard to refuse, so he reluctantly trained a group of sergeants for him. (This is not made up by the author, there is history to check.)

When Li Beidou heard that it was the Japanese country, he immediately became angry and walked around among these bastards.

Needless to say, I have learned quite well these days and haven’t found any faults.

Li Beidou called the little leader out again and asked him to take him to check the barracks. Li Beidou still didn't believe it and couldn't find trouble with these superficial bastards.

As soon as he entered the barracks, Li Beidou ran out quickly and was so disgusted.

These bastards actually have lice and fleas.

Li Beidou had a black line on his face, cursed the little boss a few times, and left as if running away.

Seeing that Li Beidou's barracks were not far from the barracks of Kong Hewei, he discussed with General Huang to get some sulfur to bathe the sergeants and kill them with poison.

General Huang disagreed, but due to Li Beidou's status, he could only do it reluctantly.

Li Beidou ordered someone to purchase a batch of sulfur, mix it with water at a ratio of 5%, and let all the sergeants go in to take a bath.

Although the sergeants complained, they had to obey the order, but they did not know that this action saved their lives.
