I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

The most stable relationship in the court, apart from father and son and relatives, is the friendship of classmates.

Even some distant kinship relationships are not as good as the friendship of classmates.

After all... the classmates have been in a relationship for several years. During this time, it was not just a nodding acquaintance, but the kind of heart-to-heart, the collision of ideals and thoughts, and the three views took root and sprouted together.

This has been well reflected in the court.

The overall mental outlook of the students who come out of the Tongfu Academy is more energetic than those of the non-Tongfu Academy students. They have a state of sunshine, fearlessness, and great courage.

Gou Li's family and country are born and died.

This group of Tongfu Academy students are working hard with this mentality.

If this makes Li Zhi and the students of Tongfu Academy form a classmate friendship... Li Tai couldn't help shivering, and drove this idea out of his mind.

Terrible, really terrible.

So they must not be allowed to form a classmate friendship, um... at least they must not be allowed to know Li Zhi's identity after forming a classmate friendship.

Gotta cut the beards off and make them their own.

Li Tai narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking.Don't look at the current court, it seems that he is the only one who can secure the position of prince, but his supporters in the court have not increased.

Even because of the death of many people from aristocratic families, his supporters have decreased.

Li Zhi, who was out of their consideration, stepped into their field of vision.

In the eyes of many people, the possibility of Li Zhi becoming emperor is higher than that of Li Tai.

After all... a person who can't even become a disciple of Lord Zhengyang, how can he be compared with someone who may become the husband of Lord Zhengyang.

"In my name, go send an invitation to the students of Tongfu Academy." Li Tai pondered for a moment, and then spit out this sentence, "Remember, it is not in the identity of King Wei, but in the identity of Li Tai. "

"It's on the second floor of Tongfu Restaurant."

The boy nodded.

He was about to leave the door, but Li Tai beckoned to stop him again: "Forget it, I will prepare the invitation myself, and you will prepare the list for me."

The boy agreed, these things are not troublesome, and he doesn't even need to make any preparations, Tongfu Academy will organize a booklet by itself.

There is a banquet on the second floor.

Li Tai spent a lot of money, and he didn't miss any of the dishes on the special menu. It took more than 5000 yuan to eat such a meal, including drinks, which once again broke the record of Tongfu restaurants.

There was a lot of toasting during the banquet.

Li Tai had the intention of wooing him, and his status as His Royal Highness the King of Wei and his status as the most favorable contender for the crown prince really moved the hearts of these scholars.

It seems worthwhile to establish a good relationship with the future emperor now.

But... this group of scholars are very smart, they didn't act like a fool right away, Li Shimin is still in good health.

If you don't want to ruin your future, then don't be so close to the crown prince who is not yet a prince.

the next day.

Han Yuan and Li Yifu hosted a banquet at their home and invited Jia Tong and Zhang Yezu.

Of course...the banquet at home is unlikely to be cooked by the chef at home, but I went to Tongfu Restaurant to take out some food. There are no special dishes, and it is not as grand as Li Tai last night.

but at home...

The intimacy of the relationship is enough to appear ordinary, but whether the food is good or not is not that important.Hmm...it's not that important whether there are special dishes or not.

"I would like to congratulate my two younger brothers for being among the best." Li Yifu held up his wine glass, pushed forward, but did not say any persuasive words, just opened his mouth and drank the wine in the glass.

Han Yuan was stunned for a moment, figured out what Li Yifu meant, and imitated him, drinking it all in one gulp.

Some things...you have to be a little drunk to say them.

After eating three cups and two bowls, the faces of several people began to turn red.

Li Yifu glanced at them, and let out a long belch: "I heard, how many people did His Royal Highness Wei Wang invite to the banquet yesterday?"

Jia Tong nodded, he felt a little bored after drinking.

Zhang Yezu patted his chest, Li Tai would not be embarrassed to say it if he could do it: "Yes, there is indeed such a thing, and we have been recruited many times during the banquet."

When he said this, he was still very proud. After all, the crown prince personally recruited him, and ordinary people would not be treated like this.

Li Yifu smiled with feigned disdain.

Zhang Yezu was taken aback for a moment.

Jia Tong raised his eyebrows: "Brother Li, what does this mean?"

"I laughed at His Royal Highness the King of Wei. He is really in a panic now." Li Yifu shook his head and took another sip of his wine.

"Oh?" The two of them said in unison, expressing the same surprise.

Han Yuan frowned, and scolded: "Even in front of my own family, how can I be so disrespectful to His Royal Highness King Wei."

Li Yifu took a bite of food.

Han Yuan's tone softened, and he explained: "Although he spoke in a rude manner, he basically meant the same thing. You may not understand some things when you first enter the court, and you will lose your composure when the time comes. I will tell you in advance."

Jia Tong and the others hurriedly stood up, and bowed to Han Yuan and Li Yifu: "I also ask my brother for advice."

"Do you know... who is Mr. Li who plays mahjong?" Han Yuan asked a question.

The two scholars paused.

They could vaguely guess that Li Yuan's status was not low, but as for who it was... they couldn't guess, and they didn't even know whether the name "Old Man Li" was true or not.

Li Yifu opened his mouth to answer: "That is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the great sage of Shenyao and the emperor of Daguangxiao."

The two of them shivered.

ha?
That wretched, shameless little old man who cheated, played mahjong, and was always caught, was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty?Today's father?
Soon...they realized that the middle-aged man who would come to the store occasionally and claimed to call Li Yuan "father".

Who can be called the emperor's father?

Their eyes became terrified.

"That's His Majesty." Li Yifu saw the doubts in their stomachs and explained.

Jia Tong was eight or nine points sober from the drink: "The wives of Lord Zhengyang..."

Han Yuan thoughtfully opened his mouth to answer for them: "There is a princess, there is the daughter of General Li, there is the daughter of the prime minister, and there is also the daughter of the eldest grandson Sikong."

Oh…

Mr. Zhengyang is such a scumbag!Bah, no, it turns out that those beautiful girls also come from rich backgrounds.

Li Yifu added another sentence by the way: "The ones who played mahjong with the emperor are also the military gods Li Yaoshi and Wei Xuancheng."

The expressions of the two people are even more complicated.

Good guy... It turns out that they have been in contact with the most core people in the entire Tang Dynasty from the very beginning, and they thought that the shopkeeper has a gentle temper and can fight with those few people.

It turns out that their identities are also worthy of it.

Li Yifu looked at their complicated faces, and decided to throw out an explosive news: "You can guess, who is the kind person."
