Hearing this, Li Yuan turned his head and glanced at the eldest grandson who had been waiting for him in front of his bed for more than a month. He was about to say something, but finally smiled and nodded slightly.
The matter with the son is the matter with the son and has nothing to do with the grandson.
Although the son is not a good person, the grandson is a good grandson.
"I haven't been out for a long time, how about you go out for a walk with me..."
Li Chengqian looked at the sky and nodded respectfully.
The grandfather and grandson didn't even ride in the car, they just walked in the car and walked out step by step.
It’s only been a month since I came out, but the streets have already changed drastically.
There are red banners and colorful flags with various advertising slogans everywhere. At first glance, the colorful flags are fluttering everywhere, making it look very festive.
The merchants of the Tang Dynasty didn't seem to be given anything for free. After seeing the power of advertisements and banners, they quickly grasped the essence of advertising without a teacher.
Those who had money placed an advertisement in Datang Evening News, and those who had no money also put up banners and colorful flags.
Li Yuan looked a little confused.
He couldn't help but stand there, looking around in a daze. Suddenly, a bright light seemed to flash in his eyes, as if he saw something incredible.
He almost suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes, so he couldn't help but rub them and looked carefully again.
Liuli——
A truckload of glass.
Just like ordinary goods, they were placed directly on the roadside stalls. Under the sunlight, they were radiant and breathtaking.
With his eyes, he could easily tell at a glance that the colored glazes on the street stalls were all of the highest quality.
When did Tang Dynasty’s Liuli become a street vendor?
Has this person become as arrogant as Wang Zi'an?
At this time, Li Chengqian couldn't help being shocked and stunned, even more shocked than when he saw the glazed window and glazed bowl in Wang Zi'an.
After all, my cheap brother-in-law was more or less reserved, but now here, he is much simpler and rougher. He just uses a car to set up a street stall!
He almost doubted his life.
I don’t even have enough decent glass lamps in my East Palace, but these people are so good at pulling cars!
What the prince does is not as good as a hawker?
He couldn't help but support his grandfather and walked over together. Following the crowd, he stopped in front of the glass stall to watch.
Although Li Yuan and Li Chengqian, both grandsons and grandsons, wore ordinary clothes, the materials used were very particular. What's more, although the two of them did not bring any guards, they had been in high positions for a long time. Even if they stopped casually, they could not hide their nobility.
The vendor setting up the stall immediately lit up his eyes and introduced him enthusiastically.
As Li Yuan listened, he fiddled with the glass products in front of him and asked seemingly casually.
"I see that these colored glazes of yours are of the best quality and workmanship. Why don't you go to the colored glaze store to sell them, and instead set up a street stall here..."
The vendor setting up the stall replied with a smile.
"The old man really has a good eye. Our colored glaze is definitely first-class. It's just that - well, things are different now. Glazed products of this quality are now everywhere, even in the colored glaze business." People collect it, so we can only sell it on the street to see if we can recover some of our capital——"
So much that no one accepts it?
Li Yuan:......
Can anyone tell me what happened?
Am I dreaming, or has someone robbed Wang Zi'an's school?
In his impression, the only one who could take Liuli seriously was the disciple behind Wang Zi'an.
Just kidding, who in a normal family can get so much colored glaze.
Not to mention anything else, not even the Wang family’s Liuli Trading Company!
Seeing Li Yuan staring at the glass in his hand and keeping silent, he thought the business was promising. The hawker immediately became enthusiastic, beaming with enthusiasm and salivating.
"Old man, you are discerning and blessed at first glance. You see, this Maitreya Buddha is a perfect match - you see the workmanship, you see the quality, it is not a small bragging. If you change it, you will spend this price and decide to hire it." If you don’t want to go back, how about I ask one of you to pay tribute to me to ensure that you have many children and grandchildren, and a long and prosperous life..."
Li Yuan couldn't help but feel happy when he heard it, but he shook his hands and put Liuli back where he was.
"To be honest, one of my little brothers has a lot of stuff like this in his house, and even the much more expensive carved glass bowls are used directly to feed the dogs, you know..."
The vendors who set up stalls were all happy with him.
Are you feeding the dog a more expensive carved glass bowl?
Do you think your family is the emperor?
The carved glazed bowl is more expensive than this. Even the stuff I have here is worth hundreds of dollars. Are you going to feed it to the dog?
Is your dog made of gold?
He looks like a good person with a kind face and kind eyes, but in the end, he doesn’t even have to draft a draft when he brags——
Not recommended anymore.
Go back to your seat and sit down.
"Come on, old man, don't sell this thing, just keep going -"
Li Yuan:......
To be honest, no one believes me!
With his status, he would naturally not get into trouble with a stall vendor for his unintentional offensive words, so he smiled and turned away.
"Gao Ming, let's go to other places and look -"
After saying that, when there was no response, he couldn't help but turned his head in surprise, and saw that his grandson didn't stare at Liuli. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the street with dull eyes.
At the other end of the street, although there was a heavy flow of people, his grandson's eyes fell on a girl who was rushing over in a hurry. Although this girl was wearing men's clothes, her expression was a little anxious and embarrassed, and she knew she still had some baby fat, but she had pretty features and smart eyes, and at first glance she was a perfect beauty.
Li Yuan couldn't help but feel happy, with a smile on his face.
"Gao Ming, he is indeed my grandson. His vision is absolutely top-notch..."
Listening to his grandfather's teasing, Li Chengqian suddenly came to his senses, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Ahem - Grandpa, unlike what you think, my grandson just met an acquaintance..."
Li Yuan looked at his slightly shy grandson with a narrow look on his face and deliberately teased him.
"Oh - it turns out they are acquaintances. I thought I could have another grandson-in-law. It's a pity. I was originally going to ask someone to help you find a matchmaker. Forget it, I'll help the grandson of the Xuanzhen family. Bar--"
When Li Chengqian heard this, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Grandpa, no-"
Before he finished speaking, he saw the smile on Li Yuan's face that could no longer hold back, and then he realized that his grandfather was deliberately teasing him.
He could only say with a red face.
"That is the youngest daughter of Li Yaoshi's family..."
Hearing this, Li Yuan nodded slightly and instantly understood Li Chengqian's difficulty.
Li Jing is now the Minister of the Ministry of War and has a very high prestige in the army, and Li Chengqian is the Prince of the East Palace. If they really want to get married, I am afraid that my filial son will have trouble sleeping.
Li Yuan didn't say anything, but reached out and patted his grandson on the shoulder.
"We, the men of the Li family, like it if they like it, and don't like it if they don't like it. If you are so aggrieved that even if you like a woman, you are hesitant and hesitant, and you can't even protect the woman you love, then you can still be expected to protect her. What? To protect our Li family’s territory..."
Li Chengqian's face suddenly turned red.
Li Yuan gently patted his grandson's arm with an encouraging smile on his face.
"Go, the girl seems to have encountered some difficulty. If you can help, please help - leave the rest to Grandpa to handle -"
When Li Chengqian heard this, he glanced at Li Yuan with some gratitude.
"Grandson, thank you grandpa for helping me -"
After saying that, without thinking too much, he hurried forward to greet him.
"Zhiruo——"
At this moment, Li Zhiruo was feeling panicked and anxious, with tears welling up in her eye sockets. She was afraid that if she was too late, her sister would be poisoned by the thief Wang Zi'an. She hugged the scroll in her arms and trotted away, her hat even turning crooked.
Just as he was at a loss, he suddenly heard a familiar voice calling him.
Immediately, he subconsciously raised his head and saw Li Chengqian walking towards him quickly. He curled up his mouth and started crying as if he was seeing a relative.
Li Chengqian was at a loss by the sudden burst of crying, whether he should be helped or not.
"Zhiruo, girl, what's going on? Don't panic. Tell me quickly and I'll help you..."
Although he knew that in Chang'an City, anyone who could make Zhiruo cry with grievance was definitely not someone to be trifled with, but who was he?
His Majesty the current Crown Prince.
Who dares not to give some face?
Hearing Li Chengqian's promise, Li Zhiruo immediately became more confident and said with sobs.
"Brother Gao Ming, someone is bullying me..."
This is simply a good opportunity that comes to your door.
Li Chengqian immediately patted his chest, full of pride.
"If you rebel against him, I'll help you teach him a lesson - tell me who it is, and I promise to beat him until his teeth are all over the floor -"
Li Zhiruo wiped her tears.
"Brother Gao Ming, this is Wang Zi'an——"
Li Chengqian almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Who are you talking about?"
Li Zhiruo gritted his teeth and said.
"Wang Zi'an, he's just some kind of Marquis of Chang'an——"
Li Chengqian:......
Immediately I took a breath of cold air.
So, it’s my thick legs that bully the girl I like?
Can't afford to offend, can't afford to offend——
He couldn't help but cough slightly in embarrassment.
"This - cough, this is what I think, cough..."
Li Zhiruo:......
Just when Li Chengqian got stuck on the spot and was about to be unable to get off the stage in front of the beauty, Li Yuan who was following behind him had already heard everything.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Chang'an's greetings to Wang Zi'an?
Ah--
This brat is really becoming more and more promising, and he even dares to play tricks on the daughter of Li Jing's family.
Yes, although he didn't know the specific situation, he knew Wang Zi'an. If he said that the boy was mean-mouthed and flirted with or teased the little girl, he would believe it. But when it came to bullying, he would never believe it.
Although the child has an out-of-touch temperament and doesn't stick to trivial matters, he does not suffer from major problems.
Besides, if you have a family like Juncheng, who is rich, powerful, and talented, why should you bully such a little girl? All the ladies in Chang'an, I don't know how many people are vying to tease him...
"It turns out it's Wang Zi'an, it's okay, Gao Ming is here, just don't worry -"
When he saw his grandson, he shrunk when he mentioned Prince An'an. Li Yuan was both angry and funny.
This naughty kid is too honest.
Don't worry about whether it can be solved or not. Can you destroy yourself in front of the girl you like?
"Who are you--"
Looking at Li Yuan who suddenly interrupted, Li Zhiruo felt that the person in front of him seemed familiar and couldn't help but hesitate.
"You are - ah, Your Majesty..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Li Chengqian's mouth was covered on the spot by the desperate Li Chengqian.
How could his grandfather's identity be exposed in this situation?
"Shh-"
Li Chengqian nodded at him, and then made a silent gesture.
Li Zhiruo immediately became energetic, her waist was no longer sore, her legs were no longer painful, her tears were wiped away, and she felt that she was okay again.
With the Supreme Emperor and the Crown Prince here, do I still have to be afraid of that piece of shit Prince An?
"Grandpa, Wang Zi'an bullied me and took my sister away..."
Li Zhiruo immediately decided that the villain would file a complaint first.
Li Yuan and Li Chengqian couldn't help but look at each other, dumbfounded.
This Wang Zi'an is really capable. The two daughters of Li Jing's family have been provoked cleanly. Listening to the meaning behind his words, how could he have snatched away the girl?
"Come on, daughter, tell me what's going on..."
Li Yuan was very interested in gossip, so he immediately waved his hand, walked aside, and listened to Li Zhiruo's talk in an acrimonious manner. A few people were talking excitedly when they suddenly heard a commotion in front of them. When they looked up, they saw a group of young men carrying knives and sticks suddenly rushing in front of them. For a moment, the crowd gave way and almost hit Li Yuan, who had just recovered from a serious illness. Fall to the ground.
Li Chengqian was so worried that he quickly used his body to protect his grandfather, and involuntarily retreated to the foot of the big tree on the roadside, and then managed to stand firm. Even so, he was staggered by the crowd and even one of his shoes was stepped off.
I couldn't help but feel shocked and angry.
The imperial guards in the palace who were responsible for secretly guarding Li Yuan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. They didn't care about hiding their whereabouts anymore. They huffed around and blocked Li Yuan's side.
Li Yuan's face was as dark as water and he remained silent.
Although his throne has been snatched away by his filial son, the world still belongs to his Li family after all, and this is still the foot of the imperial city!
He forcefully withdrew the arm supported by Li Chengqian.
"Gao Ming, go and see whose bodyguard actually dares to run rampant at the foot of the imperial city—"
"Grandpa, you..."
Li Chengqian looked at the weak Li Yuan and felt a little worried.
Li Yuan waved his hand calmly.
"Just go and find out. If something happens to me here, your father's work these past few years will be in vain -"
…
Staring closely at the Wang family guards who were rampaging, forcibly taking people, and seizing goods, Li Shimin stood on the street with his lips tightly pursed and silent.
Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, who were familiar with Li Shimin's temper, couldn't help but feel nervous. They knew that His Majesty was really angry.
"Your Majesty, my boss, why don't I come forward-"
Before Changsun Wuji could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by Li Shimin.
"Need not--"
Changsun Wuji couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart, and retreated directly behind Li Shimin. Although Fang Xuanling didn't speak, he couldn't help frowning, standing on tiptoes, and looking anxiously into the distance.
Here, close to the imperial city, the city defense army and Wuhou patrolled the city intensively.
According to the past, if anyone dared to cause trouble here, they would have been captured on the spot. But today, this group of people, a total of seventy or eighty people, armed with knives and sticks, ran rampant, arrested people in the street, and seized property. They didn't even look at it. Until one person stopped him, none of the city defense troops and Wuhou who could be seen everywhere in the past were seen...
Looking at the Wang family guards who were about to leave, the chill in Li Shimin's eyes became more and more intense.
In the end, I couldn't help but wave my sleeves, turned around and left.
Instead of "taking the chance" to go to Wang Zi'an, he turned around and went directly to Nanya.
