laugh.
Outside the house, Li Shimin lit a cigarette and exhaled a breath of foul air.
"Here."
He threw one towards Xu Fenglei.
"Your Majesty, please lend me a fire."
Xu Fenglei took the cigarette, came up to him with a smile, and said.
Li Er rolled his eyes.
"I have to light cigarettes for you myself, you are so proud!"
He hummed softly, but still took out the fire stick and helped light the cigarette.
The cigarette butts glowed red, and the two men began to smoke.
"Am I being generous?"
Li Shimin glanced at Xu Fenglei and said,
"If you save yourself from smoking, the cigarette pack is at its bottom. I'll give you the last one."
Wow.
The cigarette box was opened, and it was indeed empty inside.
"Thank you for your grace! I am flattered!"
Xu Fenglei held a cigarette in his mouth, with a sincere face, and bowed to Li Shimin respectfully.
But this gesture seems careless no matter how you look at it.
"Go to hell!"
Li Shimin laughed and cursed, and said,
"I've been so good to you, shouldn't you show my respect as well? Get some more inventory and contribute it?"
Xu Fenglei was startled.
"Ah? Your Majesty... How dare I hide my secrets? All the inventory has been dedicated to you!"
He continued,
"Would I lie to you?"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows,
"can not you do it?"
Xu Fenglei: "..."
"Would you like me to send someone to your house to inquire and search?"
Li Er crossed his arms and hummed softly,
"If you are found out during the search, I will sentence you to the crime of deceiving the emperor and execute you immediately! How about that?"
Xu Fenglei looked embarrassed: "Your Majesty, please stop joking, haha, hahaha..."
"Haha, you are so big! I don't know you yet?"
Li Shimin stretched out his hand and said without any doubt,
"Hand it over! I don't want you to pay more, just hand over half of the inventory!"
"When I have a surplus in the future, I will pay you back ten times a hundred times!"
Seeing the emperor's reluctance, Xu Fenglei had no choice but to nod angrily.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you..."
He sighed and said,
"If I had known I wouldn't let you get involved with this thing, I would have been able to take it all to myself..."
Li Shimin's eyes lit up.
"Ha! I knew you had something in stock!"
He slapped Xu Fenglei on the shoulder and laughed,
"Did this trick trick you out?!"
"There will be a big court meeting the day after tomorrow, so please bring all your supplies! If I don't have one during the meeting now, it will make my whole body feel uncomfortable!"
Xu Fenglei: "!!!"
wipe!
I've been fooled by this old emperor!
Seeing Xu Fenglei deflated, Li Shimin's smile became brighter and brighter, a puff of old cigarette smoke entered his lungs, he was as carefree and happy as a god!
But at this moment, a report came:
"Your Majesty, Princess Xiangcheng wishes to see you."
Li Shimin exhaled the smoke and nodded.
"I asked her to come."
he ordered
"Let her come in. This farce should come to an end."
The messenger eunuch looked troubled when he heard this.
"how?"
Li Shimin frowned.
"Your Majesty, Princess Xiangcheng's... dress seems a little weird."
The eunuch who sent the message hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,
"You...don't be angry."
After saying that, he flicked the whisk and a figure walked in.
Li Shimin was thinking about what 'weird dressing' meant when he glanced forward and his blood pressure began to soar!
Alert, alert!
Xu Fenglei looked at it and was stunned.
Who is this?
Taking a closer look, the face showed Li Qingquan's face.
She was seen wearing a blue and white robe, and her black hair was tied up with a hairpin——
This... a pretty Taoist nun in plain clothes, this is it!
With this appearance, not only Xu Fenglei and Li Shimin were stunned, but also the attendants in the courtyard were stunned.
"See you, father, see your master."
Li Qingquan's expression remained unchanged and he bowed solemnly.
But what she was doing now was not the common squatting ceremony, but the bowing ceremony that people in the Taoist sect would use!
"you you……"
Li Shimin's eyes widened, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak clearly!
"Qingquan, what are you doing!"
Xu Fenglei asked quickly,
"Don't tell me you are role-playing? This Kundao is not interested in pretending!"
Li Qingquan shook his head.
"Master, this disciple is not just pretending, but he is actually tying up his hair and becoming a monk."
She said seriously,
"I thought this might be my only way out."
Wow!
Li Shimin threw a cigarette butt on the ground and stamped his feet fiercely.
"What is the only way out! How dare you, a rebellious girl, to make your own decisions? You, you, you... you are going to make me angry to death!"
His face turned red and he said angrily,
"Hurry up and throw this robe away from me and let your hair down! How can an unmarried girl have her hair tied up?"
"hurry up!"
Li Qingquan was unmoved by the order.
"Father, my daughter has made up her mind, please fulfill her!"
Just hearing a pop, she was already kneeling on the ground.
The commotion in the courtyard also drew the eldest grandson Wugou and a group of children out.
The moment they saw Li Qingquan's appearance, they were also stunned.
"Qingquan, oh...what's going on with you?"
Changsun Wugou hurriedly stepped forward and tried to help Li Qingquan up, but Li Qingquan's knees seemed to have roots and she couldn't move them no matter how hard she pulled.
"Who do you look like with this stubborn temper?"
While holding on, she sighed,
"Okay, okay, stop doing this! Your father has decided not to marry you to Du He!"
"The marriage contract will be fulfilled by Runan. Now that Runan is still young, the marriage will be consummated in three years, and the imperial edict will be issued soon."
"You don't need to get married! Okay? Get up!"
Facing this girl, even Changsun Wugou was a little helpless.
"No, Queen Mother."
Li Qingquan shook his head and said,
"Although my daughter does not need to perform the marriage this time, as my father said at the beginning, as long as I am a princess, I will get married. If I don't marry, the royal family will be criticized."
"My daughter has her own ideas, but she never wants her father, the emperor, and her mother to be troubled by rumors, so becoming a monk is the only way."
Li Shimin's face turned cold.
"Li Qingquan, there is a limit to my patience! Don't do whatever you want just because you have some ability or because I and your mother dote on you!"
He said coldly,
"I will not force you to get married! I will not ask you to get married in the next few years. This is the maximum tolerance!"
"If you continue to make trouble unreasonably, I will strip you of your princess title and demote you to a commoner right now! Do you believe it or not?!"
At this moment, Li Shimin was already on the verge of explosion!
However, Li Qingquan's expression remained firm.
"My daughter came today to ask her father and mother to remove my title of princess."
She bowed her waist, knocked her head on the ground, and said slowly,
"My daughter is unfilial and has brought shame on her father, the emperor, and her mother."
"Father, please... demote me to a commoner!"
Veins popped up on Li Shimin's face, and his fists were clenched.
"Get out of here...get out of here now!"
he roared,
"I don't want to see you! Get away!"
This roar exploded like thunder in the East Palace, making everyone's hearts tremble, and the birds on the trees scattered!
…
Li Qingquan left.
A thick dark cloud seemed to have condensed over the East Palace.
Li Shimin had a gloomy face and remained silent for a long time.
Changsun Wugou wanted to say a few words of comfort, but didn't know what to say. He could only sigh softly, give Xu Fenglei a look, and then led the children into the house.
"Mother, sister, what's wrong with her?"
Li Lizhi looked up at her mother and asked.
"Your sister... ugh."
Changsun Wuguo stroked his daughter's head and sighed,
"She has her own opinions. You can't imitate her in the future, do you understand?"
Li Lizhi blinked.
"Why can't you learn? Isn't it bad to have your own opinion?"
she asked.
"Yes, Mother, isn't it good to have your own opinion? Master has always taught us to have our own ideas."
Li Chengqian also asked.
Several children looked confused at this moment.
"Of course it's a good thing to have an opinion, especially a boy, you must have an opinion, but a girl... Oh my mother, I don't know what to say."
Changsun Wugu had a headache on his face and said angrily,
"It's all your master's fault!"
Children: "???"
Why is this being blamed on Master again?
…
"Here."
Xu Fenglei pushed Li Shimin gently.
Li Shimin had no expression on his face, and when he glanced to the side, he saw a cigarette.
"...where did you come from?"
he questioned.
"I rummaged through my pockets and found it. I hid it in the cracks. I didn't notice it before." Xu Fenglei shrugged with a calm look on his face.
Li Shimin: "..."
Tsk.
Light the cigarette and take a long puff.
This breath seemed to turn all the anger into suction, sucking the smoke into his lungs.
After several seconds, smoke spurted out from his mouth and nose and dispersed into the air.
"Perfect level beyond the lungs!"
Xu Fenglei gave a thumbs up and praised.
Li Shimin remained silent, but three seconds later, he suddenly got up and slapped Xu Fenglei on the head!
boom!
"Ouch!"
Xu Fenglei stared and shouted,
"You are sick! Why are you hitting me?!"
"Why didn't I beat you? It's all your damn fault!" Li Shimin said through gritted teeth, "These are all good disciples you taught! What did you teach them? They are rebellious! They make a big fuss! They are extremely annoying!"
Xu Fenglei: "@#￥%...&*#￥"
"...You can't blame me for this."
He rubbed his head and said with a guilty conscience,
"Master leads me in. Cultivation depends on the individual. I have the same teachings... It's entirely because this girl is born to be stubborn."
Having said this, Xu Fenglei was not confident enough.
To be honest, he really has to bear the main responsibility.
After all, the princess of Xiangcheng in history was extremely well-behaved. She happily accepted her father's arrangement and then raised her husband and raised her children.
It's not like now, where you become a monk if you don't agree with someone!
"Then you, then you, then you!"
Li Shimin slapped Xu Fenglei on the head several times and said angrily,
"Then you handed over the bank to her! Her wings were completely hardened!"
Xu Fenglei: "!!!"
"Your Majesty! My patience has its limit! Just talk to me, please, don't do anything!"
He protected his head and said angrily,
"When she was chosen to manage the accounts, you also supported her! Now it's better, do you want me to take the blame alone?"
"I won't carry it!"
"If you hit me again, I will fight back!"
This Li Er is so unreasonable!
"Okay! You fight back! I'm very unhappy now and just want to fight!"
Li Shimin finished the cigarette in his mouth in one gulp, spit it into Xu Fenglei's face, and said provocatively,
"Come! I will pardon your innocence, but I'm afraid you won't dare!"
boom!
A fist swung up directly and hit Li Shimin on the head!
Li Er: "!!!"
After a burst of pain in his forehead, he suddenly felt dizzy throughout his head, making him a little confused.
"You kid...how dare you beat me up!"
Xu Fenglei closed his fists and coldly snorted:
"Hmph! You were the one who provoked me first! And you said I would be pardoned! If I don't dare to fight anymore, am I a coward?"
When Li Shimin heard this, he stopped talking nonsense and directly punched him!
The monarch and his ministers actually struggled together!
The attendants in the courtyard were completely dumbfounded by this scene. They could not go up to break up the fight, nor could they stand still. They could only rush into the room and shout:
"The Queen, the Queen is not good!"
"Your Majesty and the Grand Master are fighting! They are fighting!"
children:"?!"
Father and Master are fighting? !
At this moment, they all wanted to run out and watch the fun!
Such liveliness may not be seen once in a lifetime!
The eldest grandson Wugou raised his head slightly, raised his hand, and stopped all the children.
"oh."
She said calmly,
"Let them fight, who will have the upper hand?"
Attendant: "..."
He was dumbfounded again, not expecting the Queen to have such an attitude.
He turned his head with difficulty and glanced outside the room before reporting:
"Back to the Queen... Your Majesty has the upper hand, but the Grand Master's fighting style is also very... well, tricky."
Changsun Wugou nodded.
"good."
She ordered,
"Don't worry about them, just do your own thing."
"...Yes." The attendant looked in disbelief, but in the end he could only nod in agreement and turned to leave.
"Wuhu! Father has the upper hand!"
"That's for sure. My father has a body like a bucket. Is hitting Master just for fun?"
"Hmph! I think Master must be showing weakness on purpose in order to find a fatal blow! You see, Master must be the winner in the end!"
"I still think my father is more powerful. He is angry..."
"..."
Although several children were prevented from feasting their eyes on it, the enthusiasm for discussion was high!
If they weren't still young and didn't know how to gamble, they would be betting on the market right now!
…
outside the house.
After a few rounds, Li Shimin walked aside out of breath and held his waist.
"You kid...you are so cruel!"
He rubbed his waist and eyes and couldn't help but spat,
"It's not a bad idea to keep walking down the third street!"
Xu Fenglei rubbed his face and smiled. "We are each other. Your Majesty is much stronger than me in physique. How can I fight with you if I don't show any shame?"
He said, "Now that you are out of breath, can you feel better?"
The fight between them was not a real fight, it was just Li Shimin wanting to vent his anger, and Xu Fenglei accompanied him to be a human punchbag.
It's just that he is a smart punching bag who can fight back and likes to go down three routes...
"Come on! I don't want to care anymore!"
Li Shimin wiped away the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand and said,
"Let her do whatever she likes! Really...I don't want to be angry anymore!"
